New Moon in Scorpio

~ Integrity * Passion * Truth ~

~*Merry New Moon in Scorpio*~

In this dark moon cycle, we are granted a moment of silence, in which we may traverse our own inner desires, drives, and release anything that is holding us back from successfully accomplishing our dreams.

It may be time for an inner journey into the deeper layers psychologically for yourself or those close to you. When Scorpio enters the New Moon cycle, it puts the energy of Scorpio in what’s called a ‘detriment’ in Astrology. It is an aspect which can create challenges in communicating the emotions, but also gives insight into those areas that could use some attention in your relationships.

This is a deep and shadowy moon, one that sheds light on the deepest of wounds, betrayal, jealousy and insecurity. Passionate possessiveness over significant others, belief systems, ways of living, or an inability to surrender and trust within your closest relationships. Scorpio can sense deceit from a mile away, and if disrespected can go to extreme levels of protection or revenge - if these energies and emotions are not handled in a healthy way, this time period could present some aggressive situations. The need to be heard coinciding with wanting space physically and emotionally. The desire for Love and Connection, met with paralyzing fear of abandonment. Scorpios biggest lesson and challenge is to be able to fully let go and surrender to the Great Mystery, the All-Knowing Eye of Providence - that final great battle cry to the Sky, that screams out,

“I Surrender!”

To All That Is

And simply rest in the knowing You Are Loved.

You are supported fully as you let yourself experience how you truly feel within.

Know you are exactly where you need to be on your path as a soul re-learning how to nurture and care for yourself as you navigate through this world. Scorpio knows its limits, how much it can give and how much energy it needs to store on reserves. This is a time for reflecting upon which of your reserves you may need to restock up on ~ be it physical, emotional, mental, or spiritual.

Deep bodywork through massage, acupuncture, acupressure, as well as hydrotherapy, craniosacral therapy, reiki, binaural beats, meditation, psychotherapy, holistic coaching, breathwork, and tai chi are all excellent ways to get this energy moving. They work to promote gentle release on a physical level, which can help you ‘surrender’ on an emotional, mental, and spiritual level.

Incorporating essential oils that promote relaxation, and meditational music with waterfall, or ocean sounds would be beneficial. Channeling the healing energies of water, will be extremely healing as it connects with Scorpios element being a feminine water sign. Sacred New Moon bath rituals with Himalayan pink salt, crystals, smudge, and candles, can help you connect with this feminine moon energy. Working with the Goddess, connecting with different Archetypes, and ‘moon bathing’ under the dark moon, can help you reconnect to the Divine Feminine within you. Grounding these transformative Scorpio frequencies for your own empowerment, healing and ultimately - your ability to surrender to the deeper lessons and gifts your soul has to share.

This Scorpio New Moon, be prepared to go deep, release all that no longer serves you, as you embrace your deepest desires, transmute your fears and insecurities into the alchemical Golden Manna, in which all your wildest dreams may be birthed into a New Golden Age.

"We’ve been through this such a long, long time

Just tryin’ to kill the pain

But love is always coming and love is always going

And no one’s really sure who’s letting go today

Walkin’ away

If we could take the time to lay it on the line

I could rest my head knowin’ that you were mine

All mine

So if you want to love me then darlin’ don’t refrain

Or I’ll just end up walkin’ in the cold November Rain.

Do you need some time on your own?

Do you need some time all alone?

Everybody needs some time

On their own

Don’t you know you need some time all alone?

I know it’s hard to keep an open heart

When even friends seem out to harm you

But if you could heal a broken heart

Wouldn’t time be out to charm you?

Sometimes I need some time

On my own

Sometimes I need some time all alone

Everybody needs some time

On their own

Don’t you know you need some time all alone?

When your fears subside

And shadows still remain

I know that you can love me

When there’s no one left blame

So never mind the darkness

We can still find a way

Cause nothin’ lasts forever

In the cold November Rain.”
