Hey, how are you? We have a really interesting palpable excellence week of astrology that's underway as we approach the big Bad Scorpio full moon, which will take place next Monday night. It'll actually take place on Tuesday. At about 2:30 AM Australian Eastern Standard time, which is, is that the 12th, 13th? But as I've been saying in astrology school all weekend. For me personally, I always find that full moons in water signs have big buildups. That might be because I have a lot of water and I'm primarily water and air in my chart, elementally. So the water is something that, I can just, I can feel it. I feel like we all can, as humans. And so this is one that really, every year for me personally, I just notice there's always a palpable buildup to this full moon. I love it. I love the archetype of Scorpio for so many reasons. I think if you come in here as a Scorpio. Hats off. What a strong mission to feel and engage with life so deeply. I think for the Scorpios listening, the abilities that you are able to sharpen and wield and turn into skills are so strong. You know, you can either become. A total dark Lord or wield that force for such great, benefit to self and everyone around you and the vast majority of Scorpios I know have chosen that latter path, which is wonderful. I know so many healers, so many artists, creatives, just attractive. Personalities who are Scorpio. Anyway, why I want to speak about the buildup is because by the time I speak to you next week, we'll be well into the experience of it, and there's two things that are happening this week that really set us up so beautifully for the experience of this full moon. The first one being all of this week until Sunday, mercury, which is currently in Aries, will be moving in this last week of it being in Aries conjunction with Chiron. Chiron being this brilliant, very experiential aspect of. Your needle chart and in the sky right now, he's in the latter stages of Aries, and so all week our mind, the collective mind information will be attuned and tuning into the frequency of Chiron in Aries. And this is very, very interesting to me because all of this year. There have been these retrogrades either happening in Aries, or with Mars, the ruler of Aries. And so I know for so many of us, we've accessed deeper layers of self instinctual, self body intelligence. You know, the compass of my body is. Moving towards this, or repulsed by this and these deeper layers of what do I want, what do I need, what do I desire? To me, Aries is a lot to do with the establishment of selfhood leading the self, being one's own guiding light, and for so many of us. Again, especially for people who are very sensitive or came up learning to read the room first. This is for a lot of us newer territory and so I just know for myself, and a lot of my friends and certainly my clients. There are so many things that we're having to take ownership of, desires that we're having to take ownership of. And this week with Mercury being conjunct, Chiron, Chiron is showing us collectively, but then individually, what is my story around. Having what I want, desiring what I desire, having my needs met, being aware of what they are, initiating my own life on the path that I want to walk upon. And anywhere where we are not in the fullness of. This is what I want. This is what I need, this is what I desire. I'm gonna orient my life and my energy onto the path that takes me towards those things. Anywhere where we're not doing that, we're able to become aware of that landscape, that story, that template. And I think it's very interesting that that takes place, that this is taking place during Torah season because. One of the things that we need to remember with Taurus and this Full Moon and Scorpio, the lead up really allows us to see this. Is there anywhere where we're wanting to stay in the comfortability of what is known? What is easy? There can be a real almost la Well, yeah. Laziness with. Taurus energy. I'm not saying that toss are lazy, but I'm saying that this energy can just feel so comfy in its comfort zone that it can become lazy. And something that I've certainly noticed with myself and something that I've been in conversation with a couple of my great mates about is this. I've. Acknowledged something that took me months to even become conscious of. And now that I've spoken it aloud and I've gone about making the moves for this to take place and to take place as gracefully as possible, for all concerned, as soon as it became real. And we're in an earth sign, which deals with reality. It's not about idea. It's in the world Now, my first strong desire was to go back on, back on the everything. Wouldn't it just be easier if I could not do this? Wouldn't it be easier if I just sucked it up and self sacrificed? Wouldn't it be easier if blah, blah, blah, blah. It was such a strong pull to go back into what is comfy. And for me, part of that comfort or the edges of my comfort is not being confrontational, not having any kind of confrontation in my life whatsoever, you know, which is, you know. Good luck with that. Uh, and yeah, it was just so interesting to observe and hold space for that to come to the foreground and to be like, okay, no, that's not possible. And I get why you wanna do that. But we're on this path of selfhood, like I'm, I'm self-directing. A byproduct of being in the energy of Aries and being tethered to my Mars and my wants and my needs and my desires and making those moves is that it will have effects on other people. I don't want to do anything that's hurtful, obviously. I doubt any of you do either. But what is, I don't know. It depends on the circumstances, right? But. I just realized that, yeah, I was foregoing such a huge part of myself and acquiescing, which is part of my, let's say, conditioned makeup. I am very good at acquiescing. I am highly adaptable, and I like to think I'm easygoing and I have been easygoing. I think it's a. Part of my personality, but it's also a conditioned part of my personality.'cause I have Pluto right on my ascendant. Yes, I'm a liberal ascendant, but I'm also effing intense, and have the capacity for that. Absolutely. So with Chiron and Mercury aligned this week, is there anywhere where you have like so many of us. Uncovered more of what you want and more of what you desire, and how is your body registering that? How is your mind registering that? With this full moon in Scorpio, what Scorpio provides for Taurus is initiations into the unknown, where we don't have a strong foundation of ground reliability. We know exactly what this is going to be. You know, we're stepping outside of what's comfortable outside of what's known to either begin a new chapter. You know what I always think about when I think about this axis, it's falling in love. Both Taurus and Scorpio have the capacity to be absolute control freaks. They do it in different ways. This energy does it in different ways, but there's a desire to hold on and and know, and when you. Fall in love with somebody. You have to release a level of the known to fully embrace the experience of love. Like, yes, this person could completely break your heart. We don't know what is going to pan out in the coming months or years. There's so much that's unknown, but to fully, devour or experience the thing, we have to let go of the control. We have to step into states of the unknown, and that's with anything in any initiatory tale that you have ever lived or have ever heard. The hero or the heroine gets the call. They have to leave the village, they have to leave their town. They have to leave the space that they know and they have to go on a quest where they leave that space always. It's always that, and it's the same for us. In order to grow we need to step into what we don't know. To become familiar with it. I mean, it sounds so obvious when I say it, but this is the threshold that we're on and what we're dancing with all of this week as we live through Taurus energy, frequency archetype. And then as we approach this full moon on Monday night, Tuesday morning, what is the threshold that I'm at? How do I feel? Embracing more of the unknown to grow my life, my experiences, et cetera, whatever it is for you. So Chiron conjunct Mercury really allows us to, I would say, probably drop in ideas, words, a sense of how do I, what am I thinking right now? What am I thinking right now about claiming more of what I want? And then the other helpful thing that's taking place, transit, that's taking place all of this week is Pluto. The ruler of Scorpio is Sex Tiling Venus and Neptune. But I want to really focus on it being sextile to Venus, which is. Which has just entered into this first week in Aries as well. And Pluto, I think, as we all know, is in Aquarius. So this is a very, very positive, helpful, friendly relationship between these two archetypes, which is really cool because Pluto rule Scorpio, Venus rules Taurus and Libra. But let's focus on it ruling Taurus, because the sun is in Taurus, the moon will be in Scorpio. Next week, so this is really interesting. We're able to dig deep into our and psychologically sense feel. Be very, very instinctually aware of what do I feel worthy of here? Do I feel worthy of these desires, which is so much of what Taurus is about. Do I feel like I can claim these things? Do I feel like I'm worthy of and of value enough to claim these things? Can I build this world that I am desiring to build? Can I build this relationship? Can I build this X, Y, Z, whatever it is, skillset. So there's just so much support this week for all of us to. Naturally be spending time assessing and feeling into the next chapter of what do I do with these desires? What, how do I build the fertile ground for them to have incredibly deep roots? What does that look like? And again, because Mercury for the rest of this week and Venus are in, in Aries, what actions can I take to break that ground, which is the Taurus energy? What actions can I take to water the seeds that I planted on the New Moon? What does that look like very practically? If you are feeling any of this uncomfortability, how can I hold myself and tend to myself and take beautiful care of myself and essentially like hold my own hand as we move into this next thing that I'm wanting to grow and to have flourish? Again, it doesn't really matter how big or small these things are. So, yeah, it's a naturally helpful week. A naturally deep week I would say. And then certainly by Saturday, absolutely by Sunday a lot of us will be feeling, because it's a water, moon, whatever we're needing to feel. With regards to this full moon in Scorpio, is there anywhere where I'm staying in a space, a mindset, whatever it might be that has changed from a healthy comfort zone into agoraphobia or a choke hold? You know, it's actually. Making my life small versus, you know, to me that Scorpio full Moon, it is a call, it is the horn of a Viking. Or, a Brahman with a con shell beginning a whole new chapter. It's this call into a deeper initiation. With the self, whether that's one that's undertaken psychologically in our own inner world, or, more of a literal, physical adventure, whatever it may be. Over the weekend, I would just be paying attention to what is coming up, what dynamics are coming up, what's happening. Okay, in my world, where is this playing out in my chart? Where do you have Taurus? Where do you have Scorpio? And of course, if you wanna get a real, deep dive into the lay of the land of your own chart and your own psyche, uh, from an astrological lens, of course, book in for a reading, and we can really dive into this and where it's playing out for you. But yeah, I hope it serves you well. It's just, again, I feel like so much of the work is having the quietude and the space. And finding those pockets of space to be anchored into yourself and to be noticing what is naturally taking place in your world. This isn't something, I don't think any of this work is having to go outside of the self and grab something, can bring it in. It's where focusing inwards and then going out from there. I hope it's a great week. I'll see you next week.
