Scorpio Battles, Testing, Reorientation & Mercury & Venus Station Direct –

As the outcome of the midterm election permeates people’s minds and hearts, let us remember Lincoln’s words to the nation: “We are not enemies, we are friends, and let’s not break our bonds of affection.” The midterm election occurred during eight retrogrades. When retrograde planets, especially Mercury (mind) and Venus (values, resources, uniting polarities), turn direct, everything changes. It’s as if an explosion happens. Mercury and Venus station direct Friday, November 13. We shall see what that means in our country.

We are under the light (Sun, Mercury and Venus) of Scorpio, the sign where humanity reorients itself – either as a materialist or one who is spiritual.

Under Scorpio’s influence we see and experience clashes, combat, conflict, wars and battles, along with multiple trials and testings (Mars). Their purpose is to reorient (turn upside down, inside out and lift up) the lesser values to the higher, unskillfulness to virtues, from the unreal to the real, from death to immortality. It is a movement from the darkness of ignorance to the light of knowledge. Scorpio (humanity, Hercules) at the end is always the triumphant warrior.

Thus the meditative seed thought for Scorpio: “Warrior am I and from the battle I emerge triumphant.” These are the Soul’s words, describing a battle with the crystallized ways and behaviors of the personality (materialism) until the smaller self understands that direction from the Soul is an evolutionary step toward home, freedom, toward Spirit, the Father’s house. Reality then becomes spiritual.

Humanity is in battle at present to reorient our finances and resources, from materialism (personality) to world sharing (Soul). And reorient our unskillful thinking and ways of being to ways in which our hearts speak words of Goodwill and love for our fellow men.

Disciples recite a meditation within a golden triangle of light, visualizing and invoking “humanity’s redemption through the right use of money, sex and the law (rule of law).” We see streams of golden energy substance leaving the hands of the forces of materialism and entering into the hands of the Forces of Light – the New Group of World Servers and men and women of Goodwill everywhere – dispersing this golden substance in order to equalize resources for all of humanity. This is an Aquarian task. And these resources are primarily to be used for education for it is only through the enlightened mind that humanity can progress forward.

Aries	March 21 – April 19: All areas of finance and resources, both personal and with others, stand as a light in front of you. Tend to them with care and concentration, efficiency, economy and strength. Accomplish this in time increments. You may uncover more resources than you think you have. So many things are hidden, but about to appear. In the spiral of time it’s now time to uncover them. Remember others who have much less. Share and tithe. It creates great abundance needed to build that community.
Taurus	*April 20 – May 20:* You want to sail swiftly into the future with new ideas and plans. You look to humanity for aid but there are so few who are able to help, few with your same vision, and even less with your stamina. Strive for poise during these transition times and while you’re at it storm heaven with requests for those who can ably, intelligently and financially assist you. Ask that they simply appear on your doorstep. Your prayers will prepare them. The call went out.
Gemini	*May 21 – June 20:* Deep feelings, perhaps unresolved and from the past, emerge and play themselves out in your present life and relationships. Careful what you think and say and do. Careful that you don’t become part of the difficulty. You may feel vulnerable. Don’t hide this for everyone will be vulnerable, too. Disclosing yours breaks down any barriers limiting everyone’s heart-felt contact and communication. You seek love. Make those contacts first. Contact releases love.
Cancer	*June 21 – July 22:* You may experience a sense of resistance and rebelliousness – the result of stress and the constant changes occurring to everyone everywhere. The pulse of humanity and the country courses through your body. This calls for stabilization within even as impatience flares. Some immediate sense of purpose keeps you no longer within the safety of home. Make changes in small ways. Knowing the big picture help with overwhelm. True knowledge brings blessings.
Leo	*July 23 – August 22:* It seems you want both stability and freedom, both all at once. Along with a new, vital, surprising sense of identity. These days and times should bring heightened intuition about yourself, so observe your thoughts. Their brilliance forms the nucleus for creative activities you long to bring forth. Is your work stultifying while it also serves financial needs? We come back again to your need for stability and for freedom. A sudden revelation occurs concerning these. And an opportunity!
Virgo	*August 23 – September 22:* Small changes are occurring in your personal life in unusual and surprising ways. They are the seeds of the future which will prove to be life-changing. Have the intention to break free from irritation, criticisms and restlessness so you can move toward emotional stability. It feels hard to move forward sometimes. Allow your inner spiritual intentions to hold you in the present. Transformation is coming for a long long visit.
Libra	September 23 – October 22: You are called to a past situation and then to a present-future one. Both will integrate as your Part of Fortune is in the house of the Soul. The past has held and kept you within the realms of the emotions. The present/future says offer forgiveness deep and real. This allows all judgments to disappear. And love to appear. The first has kept you spiritually lonely. The other shifts you into a loving community. Can you identify the two sides and where you’re positioned? Forgiveness is alchemy.
Scorpio	October 23 – November 21: You’re anticipating change and it’s almost here, coming with deep revelatory Raincloud of Knowable Things impact. Since you live within this field constantly, it won’t surprise you. You’ll find your usual understanding of the inner side of life intact. Being the warrior of the zodiac, you’re preparing for the coming times where the death of the old will happen in the blink of an illumined eye. Your strength will be called upon. Begin to exercise more now. You are to train to be triumphant, the illumined phoenix, the winged eagle.
Sagittarius	*November 22 – December 21:* You become an enigma, a puzzle and a paradox. Restless yet tied down (psychologically), responsible yet rebellious, seeking security yet craving freedom, pleased yet dissatisfied and stimulated with conflicts, hopes, wishes, desires and aspirations. Allow these contradictions to settle in and work with you. Then new insights will appear in the quiet of the night. Don’t push them away. They are part of the Harmony Through Conflict that Sag works within. Then a new consciousness comes forth. Don’t rock the boat too much.
Capricorn	December 22 – January 19: Do you feel you’re on a see-saw between responsibility and the need for freedom? Do your words and ideas often challenge and upset the apple cart of everything most everyone else in your world accepts? As you continue to have newer world visions, others will have to reorient to your ways of thinking or be left behind. But sometimes you simply want to be like everyone else and go back home and rest awhile. But you remember home never was like that so you forge onward. We’ll walk forward and ahead with you.
Aquarius	January 20 – February 18: Out and about in the world you meet with important people, listen to music, participate in multiple groups, attend lectures, classes and school, and in the milieu you experience a particular type of honor and popularity, while building your social and business reputation and career. It’s important to tend carefully to financial responsibilities, develop new business criteria, while knowing you’re climbing the ladder of success, and doing more than you’re capable of yet succeeding no matter what. It’s time, isn’t it? Keep going.
Pisces	February 19 – March 20: You sometimes want to escape the influences that interrupt and intrude into your plans and daily agendas. You find you need patience and flexibility in great amounts as interruptions and unexpected events continue to occur. You cannot prepare for what will happen. You can only soothe the ripples in the waters with knowledge that what occurs is redesigning your personal and professional life in ways you could never have created yourself. You’re lucky, sensible and smart. And being looked after. And the times ahead will be surprising.
