Astrology of Now: Spellcasting

by  • 

Autumn is here. There is magic in the air. After the high winds: still, dull skies, yellow-leaved birch, bronze beech. Delicious fall smells: woodsmoke, rot, mushrooms, apples. The nights are reaching into the hours of day, here in the north. But everywhere, the season of magic opened today. The Sun moved into Scorpio, Mars moved into Libra. In a couple of days, the Sun will conjoin mighty Jupiter in this, the sign of what lies beneath, shining a light down there, maybe lighting a bonfire this year. Traditionally, of course, this is the time when the veil is thin. The mouth […]

Scorpio Season, Featuring Jupiter

by  •

Scorpio season begins on October 23rd at 1:26 AM EDT. This year, it’s all about Jupiter, which will expand Scorpio’s depth. 

Optimism as the lights go out is one possibility. Expanding darkness can force you to dig deeper for something to have faith in. In general, the Sun’s Scorpio ingress marks the season of death and rebirth, transformation and merging. These themes will be accelerated by Jupiter. You’ll still be turning inwards, but the scope of what you learn will be enlarged. This will be about the internal, undiscovered country. And, the internal, undiscovered resources. There’s always more underneath: more to the story, more value, more power. 

If you have a birthday from October 23rd to October 30th, the Sun/Jupiter conjunction will be part of your Solar Return year. 

Here are the aspects the Sun in Scorpio will make:

  • October 26th: conjunct Jupiter (3 deg)
  • October 28th: opposite Pallas Rx (5 deg Taurus)
  • November 3rd: trine Neptune Rx (11 deg Pisces)
  • November 4th: square Ceres (12 deg Leo)
  • November 4th: Full Moon (11 deg Taurus)
  • November 8th: sextile Juno (16 deg Capricorn)
  • November 9th: sextile Pluto (17 deg Capricorn)
  • November 11th: square the Nodes (19 deg Aquarius/Leo)
  • November 16th: trine Chiron Rx (24 deg Pisces)
  • November 17th: inconjunct Uranus Rx (25 deg Aries)
  • November 18th: New Moon 26 deg Scorpio
  • November 20th: inconjunct Pallas Rx (28 deg Aries)
  • November 21st: Sagittarius ingress

Mercury’s Transit of Scorpio: Unspeakable

by  •

Mercury enters Scorpio on October 17th. Communication becomes raw, uncomfortable and honest. 

Scorpio’s honesty is based on taboos, secrets and hidden strategies. Mercury in Scorpio is the detective, researcher and quiet observer. Nothing is said impulsively. There is a protracted period of internal analysis, and then all the layers are peeled back. What comes out can be intimate or ugly, but it will be true. 

Sometimes this can be a quiet transit, because Scorpio is intensely private. But with Mercury’s conjunction to Jupiter on October 18th, silence is doubtful. Mercury/Jupiter is the big mouth – the call for truth, the persuasive sale pitch or the exaggerated pronouncement. We must always be aware that Jupiter’s enthusiasm can push things too far. Do you want to know…everything? Are you prepared for the reaction when you drop that verbal depth-charge?

If you’re smart about this transit, you can learn quite a bit and it will benefit you. Decide if you really want to know. If the answer is “yes” use what you learn with caution. Don’t treat it lightly, don’t take it for granted and don’t ignore it, if it turns out to be heavier than anticipated. 

Here are the aspects Mercury in Scorpio will make:

  • Oct 18th: conjunct Jupiter (1 deg)
  • Oct 22nd: opposite Pallas Rx (7 deg Taurus)
  • Oct 22nd: square Ceres (9 deg Leo)
  • Oct 24th: trine Neptune Rx (11 deg Pisces)
  • Oct 24th: sextile Juno (11 deg Capricorn)
  • Oct 27th: sextile Pluto (17 deg Capricorn)
  • Oct 30th: square the Nodes (21 deg Leo/Aquarius)
  • Nov 2nd: trine Chiron Rx (24 deg Pisces)
  • Nov 2nd: inconjunct Uranus Rx (25 deg Aries)
  • Nov 5th: Sagittarius ingress

Jupiter in Scorpio: Underworlds

by  • 

Within the earth, beneath the mountain, through the dark lake, there is another world. Sunlight does not penetrate. You must bring your own light. This is the realm of the dead, a place of ghosts and shades, a place of buried wealth, secrets, hidden desires. Gilgamesh, Inanna, Psyche, Demeter, Balder the Beautiful, Dionysus and Orpheus; the Japanese creator Izanagi, Gesar the King of the Mongols and the Mayan Hero Twins — these gods and heroes visited the underworld and returned. This dangerous, dark otherworld is found in the myth or folklore of all continents — so is the story of a […]

Jupiter in Scorpio: Dancing with Fire

by  • 

“If you cannot tell the truth about yourself, you cannot tell it about other people.” -Virginia Woolf I’m not one to use another’s tragedy to prove astrology’s accuracy. That strikes me as disingenuous and gimmicky, kind of like people who chase tornados and post them to their YouTube channel. However, facing the potential of one’s […]
