Hello everyone, it is Sachini and I am back for another Astrological lens into the season. Happy Scorpio season! We entered Scorpio October 23rd and will last till November 21st, and this is a wild season folks. This alignment won’t happen again till 2037! Buckle in as we ascend through the stars!
We have a Scorpio New Moon, the Portal 11/11 and Friday the 13th all in one week! This conjunction of energies is no coincidence! New Moons are about setting intentions and allowing new beginnings for yourself, since our New Moon is in Scorpio we must realize that any deep contemplations or manifestations you may have, are best to set these intentions now. What is an area of your life that you would like to see change or transformation? This conjunctive energy is about reclaiming your power, your voice, and your magic. Expect intensity, emotional waves, and spiritual renewing. It is also a good time to set intentions on transformations on finances, money, material possessions, work related ethics, etc. If you want to work on your passions, dream of that flow of abundance, that job that brings you pleasure, this is that time to recognize your worth and make that reality. Light a green and white candle, anoint it with pine scents, and carry Green Flourite, Green Aventurine, or Sunstone, while setting your intentions, as these forces will attract good fortune, bring you that comfort and harmony, and helps you stay on track and focus on your goals.
Then comes our 11/11 portal. Grab your journals! This 11/11 Portal has SIX planets in retrograde just after our Scorpio New Moon. 11/11 is beautiful for new cycles, new beginnings, new identities! See the similarities with our New Moon conjunction? This week you will be given clarity to who brings love and joy to your life, and who drains your energy, where are you feeding positive goodness to yourself, and where are you self-sabotaging. 11/11 is a cosmic reset. This is the time to choose alignment over attachment. First thing you need to do is go outside, ground yourself, dig your bare feet into the earth. Whether that means go to the beach, go on a hike, your local park or even the dirt in your backyard. Take some deep breaths, and ask yourself what it is that you need. Take your journal, and write 11 ways that you have served the world this year, 11 lessons you have learned, 11 things you are grateful for, and 11 things you call to manifest for next year. If you are able to light a white candle during this, or even imagine a white glow/halo go from the top of your head to the bottom of your feet, this can help protect your energy and intentions. Some folks may even write these intentions, fold the paper towards them, and put it in a money jar, under their pillow, or away from their everyday view. Remember to take a mental note of any strong feelings you may feel this week.
Now Friday the 13th. This is our last week of Venus AND Mercury retrograde, and it is time we celebrate! Friday the 13th has also been known as the Day of the Goddess. Friday is ruled by Venus, and 13th is the number of the Divine Feminine, the Priestess, and the lunar cycles. Here is a Friday the 13th ritual that will help you reclaim your power. Since this whole week is about new beginnings, it is best to start cleaning your space, clean your bedroom, and put away your laundry pile. Start by cleansing your space either with smoke (sage, palo santo, incense, oil diffuser, etc), ring bells, etc. Since we are bringing in that Venus energy, you can light a pink, white, or red, and if you run out of candles at this point, you can even wear these colors instead. Gather crystals such as rose quartz, clear quartz, or Kunzite, to help allow you to open the heart to the energies of love, encourage joy and kindness, raise self-esteem, and promote unconditional love, peace, and compassion. Sit in front of your candles while holding your crystals of choice, and remember to be present. Say out loud, in your mind, or write the following:
“I reclaim every part of me that was shamed, silenced, or suppressed”
“I reclaim my voice”
“I reclaim my intuition”
“I reclaim my power”
“I reclaim my magick”
“I am safe in my power, I am embodied in my feminine energy, I am magnetic, powerful, and whole”
Visualize your energy returning to you, you can also write anything you are releasing. Blow out your candle and allow yourself to stay in this energy as you come back to the present. Scorpio is a grand water sign, and is intense and deep as the ocean. Many emotions may arise at this time, give yourself some space and time to decompress.
