On Sunday 3rd November 2013 at 12.50 GMT there will be a Scorpio New Moon which is a fitting one for this time of the year as we have just passed Samhain/Halloween and been thinking about family members and friends who have passed over to the other side of the veil. Scorpio is in the 8th house of the Zodiacal wheel (which is apt because Scorpions have 8 legs) and relates to death and regeneration, sex and death, secrets and inheritances, taxes and all things of that ilk. To add to the mix there will be a Solar Eclipse close to the planet Saturn, Old Father Time who imposes limits and boundaries.

Scorpio energy likes to delve into dark places and solve mysteries and the best mystery to solve is your own story i.e why you act/react the way that you do, why you place limits on yourself, why you think you have enough time to procrastinate and leave things for another day, why you have fixed opinions and self imposed taboos about certain issues which affects what you are willing to experience. In what parts of your life is your own tail stinging you? You will probably uncover issues to do with power, sex and the exchange of money and secrets. As a Solar Eclipse has not happened in Scorpio for a long time, there could be over exposure where things get blown up to enormous scales. Pent up emotions will erupt and the fallout could leave you feeling out of salts for a week or more.

Burrow into your own psyche like a scorpion burrows into soil and see if you can unearth and bring to light the roots of destructive patterns in your life. In what situations do you freeze people or situations out? Scorpions can survive if you put them in a freezer overnight. remove them and expose them to the sunlight (conscious mind) when they will come back to life and start moving again.

Your efforts at self analysis will be supercharged by the cosmic energies around at this time. It will all be worth it because you will feel lighter and transformed/regenerated for the cming festive season as you will feel more lighthearted.
