Scorpio season has started and that means we may be facing some ups and downs. From October 23rd to November 21st, we’re in for chatting, love and self-accountability. We’ve spent a lot of time planning for personal actions to take place and now it’s time to get it done. We all know how we’d want to live each day, so let’s go make it a reality. 

Small Changes Make Mighty Actions

As a true water sign, Scorpios are caring, intuitive and thoughtful, but with an extra twist. Being represented by a scorpion, powerful and sharp, is where the plot twist comes in. They like to do things their own way. They can go through multiple emotions a day and almost like a chameleon, will adjust to their surroundings. They won’t be impressed if things don’t go as they should be based on others not following through or putting effort in. Scorpios aren’t afraid to hold back the truth, so communication is always a big one with them. This becomes especially prominent when telling the truth and Scorpios don’t forgive easily when being lied to. This also has to do with their high levels of passion running through their veins, adding a little fire to their fuel wherever they go. Being represented by two ruling planets,

You’re in Charge 

Take full control of your life this season. Even though you may have some people that you go to for regular advice, which is amazing to have constant support. But at the end of the day, you know what’s truly right for you. leave a little mystery wherever you go like a true Scorpio. Starting each day with a journal could be a perfect way to start your morning intuitively. With that, you can also expect some romance. Whether that be with a partner or just yourself, spend it phone-free and focus on open communication. Whether it’s a Netflix and chill night in or a nice dinner, remember that transformations are bound to happen this season and Scorpio’s energy is behind you with each step. Gaze into your or your lover’s eyes and think about what you truly want to bring to add to the picture. Self-discovery will be a returning theme this month, so keep an eye out for changes coming your way. We should also take some time to look into our finances and see what is it that we truly enjoy spending our money on and what’s random purchasing. The more meaningful purchases we make and less want-based purchasing, the more we’ll appreciate and feel in control of our bank accounts. 

Many Moons

On October 30th, Mars moves into Scorpio which will cause some heat. If any drama does come about, look to your personal intuition to get a clear response on what your actions should be. Don’t let the wind knock you down, dear. We have a New Moon in Scorpio on November 4th followed by Mercury heading in on November 5th. Mercury in Scorpio gives us the tools for going beyond the surface of an issue and opening up, which will be key for those date nights. Finally, a partial lunar eclipse in Taurus and Full Beaver Moon lands on November 19th. With both of these signs having super strong personalities, we can expect a rise in our personal power to give us that extra confidence boost.

Let’s Get Physical

Phew. The full moon in Scorpio is one lusty, heady and emotional period and you may be feeling a need to reconnect with yourself physically. Our inner sexual desires are called to the forefront and we are encouraged to deep dive into our fantasies, our urges and our calls to pleasure. Whether that’s alone or with a partner (or multiple) embrace the sexual prowess brought forward by the energies of Scorpio and get at it.

It’s Not All About Getting Busy

There are many other ways of honouring our sexuality without actually having sex. Our sexuality is apart of our human experience.  Women, for example, host creative potential and emotions in our wombs and sexual organs. By meditating on the power and beauty of our internal bodies, we are honouring our sexuality in a way that moves beyond physical pleasures. Take the time this full moon to gather and honour your divine femininity in a way that promotes bonding. It can be as simple as making time for a glass of wine and connecting with a best friend.

Emotions and Trauma

Our sexualities also house past emotional and physical trauma as well as current pains and angers. During this contentious period in history when women’s rights and bodies are being challenged and threatened, you may find many of your own emotions resonating to the forefront. Anger, betrayal, past traumas. We are housing quite a bit of sexually-driven anger in our bodies at the moment. You may be feeling extra emotional and slightly out of balance. Subconsciously we are experiencing the past rising up, including experiences that have been beautiful and those that have been terrible. You may find this translates into unexpected tears, inexplicable reactions, and snappy anger.

Shed The Old

When old emotions come up, we can let them go. With the Full Moon in Scorpio, we are invited to acknowledge our emotions, honour them and let past ideas and habits go. We cannot deal with things if they stay hidden, so let everything come up this Full Moon so you can express gratitude for your past experiences and finally move on. Summer is around the corner and it’s ready for you to step into it anew.
