"Scorpio rules s*x, death and transformation. Mercury’s retrograde journey through Scorpio dredges up the dark waters of emotion, churning with repressed memories and ancestral burdens. As the psychopomp, Mercury will shine a light upon things that have long been submerged.

The darkness arises, hidden complexes emerge. The shadow of deceit and manipulation falls over your life. But this is what it takes to heal, to transform. Your soul needs you to confront these things so that you can grow.

It is very common to experience social or relationship problems during this time, and many will have the feel of a broken record, that pattern that just seems to repeat over and over."

The third and final Mercury retrograde of the year is finally here, spanning from October 13th until November 3rd, 2020. It begins in the dark waters of Scorpio, initiating a labyrinthine journey into the depths of the soul. Who’s in the bunker? Your soul will...

I love this description of what it means to be a witch, particularly this, “At the heart, to be a witch doesn’t mean that you manipulate reality to your liking. It means that you can see and call forth manifold possibilities. It means that your perception of reality goes beyond what has been handed to you. And that you can perceive the presence of freedom, and healing, in all things.”

Witch is a term as shifting and volatile as mercury. Over time it has been an accusation, a slur, a fear, a story, a fairytale, and a costume. But in the beginning, a witch was someone who was recognized as working with healing. A person who had a direct relationship to the medicine of those things we cannot immediately see.

The etymological roots of the word witch are mixed, murky and a bit mysterious. But some scholars argue that witch can be traced back to the Indo-European world weid – which means both “to see” and “to know.” Traditional healers knew that the way in which we perceive gives shape to our direct experience of reality. If we wish to change our reality, or the concreteness of loss or devastation that we’ve been handed, we must first begin with what we are open to seeing.

And Real Witches see possibility.

They understand that sometimes the most profound healing does not come from the physiology of a specific medicine, but from the life-changing alteration of our core vision and belief. Where there is pain, there could be relief. Where there is death, regeneration can be leased.

At the heart, to be a witch doesn’t mean that you manipulate reality to your liking. It means that you can see and call forth manifold possibilities. It means that your perception of reality goes beyond what has been handed to you. And that you can perceive the presence of freedom, and healing, in all things.

Happy Samhain season to all the witches here dreaming into all new possibilities for healing awaiting us this year.

“If you do not fill your energetic field with new experiences, new ideas, and new versions of yourself, your field becomes dim and worn, bored with the same old story.” Barbara Marciniak

A heads up! A bonfire of the vanities…… Today Mars is at max, at his nearest to the Earth until 2035, exactly halfway through his retrograde in fiery Aries. At the same time, Mercury turns retrograde in Scorpio until November 3rd.

Think of Mars as the core energy source of human experience. It’s been 32 years (1988) since the last Mars retrograde in fiery pioneering Aries and it will be 47 years before it happens again in 2067. Mars turned backwards on September 10 at 28° Aries and turns direct on November 14th.

Mars retrograde in Aries powers the final transition, the emotional, psychological and experiential Rite of Passage, to the big Rite of Passage of 2020: Jupiter conjunct Saturn in Aquarius. Mars retrograde represents the work of individuation and of self-actualisation that will make the collective experience in Aquarius more relevant and more easily workable.

In 3D, this used to mean trying to stand out, to be noticed, putting labels on yourself, taking pride in feeling special/spiritual or focusing obsessively on yourself/self-development.

In 5D it means:

leaving behind the roles - all the settling for, the making nice, the barely breathing and calling it a life

seeding your life in the image of what you want to be doing, not based on past assumptions

embodying your maverick spirit, wisdom, gifts and unique qualities

integrating your quirks, idiosyncrasies, weirdness and sore and sensitive spots into what makes you You

finding your unique incubate/create/release rhythm and following it

doing whatever brings you to life

following your own fascinations, obsessions, and compulsions

creating whatever causes a revolution in your heart.

Now is the time to ask deeper questions about your private desires, dreams and goals. It’s a time to re-work, re-template or re-tune projects whilst re-balancing your energy patterns, your drive, your assertiveness.

Make it a priority to redefine how you respond to life's challenges, through a makeover or rebirth of your self-expression in the world. Rather than unconsciously reacting in a fear-based fight-or-flight mode, it’s time to become audacious, brave, instinctual, passionate and focused.

“Everything I’ve ever let go of has claw marks on it.” David Foster Wallace

A heads up! Saturn/ Pluto Stationary Storm all week either side of Thursday’s Seismic Full Moon!

October is going to be a pivotal month- a game changer and crunch point- and it kicks off with a geomagnetic storm………
The Dismantling of the 3D world is now obvious, undeniable and physical. The Evolutionary Burn started years ago at the etheric soul level and, since January 12 2020, is now transforming the physical dimension.

What we are experiencing in our lives, our cells, our guts are the visible outworkings of Pluto’s alchemical burning fields and Saturn’s karmic re-balancing. October’s astrology means business - the reality dials are clicking and there is a complex gestalt of personal and collective bridges, junctures, choice points and time-line switches. All the dynamic reactive cardinal signs are under pressure in October 2020 - Aries, Capricorn, Libra and Cancer. There is a heady cocktail of extreme psychic and physical weather.

Week Ahead Time-Line
29 Saturn Direct 25 Capricorn
Mars square Saturn
Incoming geomagnetic storm
1 Full Moon 9 Aries conjunct Chiron
4 Pluto Direct 22 Capricorn

Any week when the Men in Black Saturn and Pluto station then turn forward together in the sign of politics, power and control is going to be a personal and collective turning point.

On September 29th Lord of Time and Karma Saturn turns direct in a square to retrograde Mars in Aries. An irresistible force meets an immoveable object in the seismic window of a Chironic Full Moon.

On Sunday October 4th, Pluto turns forward on the exact degree of 22 degrees Capricorn - a Master Number - where it met Saturn in Capricorn on January 12 2020 for the first time in over five hundred years. This will initiate an even deeper wave of the major clearing and cleansing. Anticipate more detoxing globally in terms of more disclosure, more public political wrangling, more attempts to control, more purification, more soul searching as a collective and more revelation and exposure. Truth needs to be served up, raw and cold and clear, whether about racism or the dark side of modern economics or the environment. Due to the laws of synchronicity, it is a command from the universe. With the Dark Lord as the all-seeing Eye of Mordor, Truth is saying, “Ready or not, I’m coming.”

It's time to walk away from reinforcing the spells of the old illusion with your words, attention, thoughts, and especially your emotions. You know better

It’s time to stop being shocked by or dramatising the ongoing outer 3D events. They should not be a surprise, nor an opportunity for sensationalism, nor a way to keep old narratives alive

It’s time to finally see through the Emperor’s new clothes to the non-reality of the threadbare lies and distortions running in the background 24/7

It’s time to see right through the over culture’s deliberately paradoxical message exhorting you to be unique/be different/ be special but making sure you conform all at the same time

And remember: Suffering is not a credential but a choice

New! Be prepared for October’s unprecedented astrology: Pluto Direct + 2 Full Moons + a Super New Moon + Mercury Retrograde!!

The passion planet Mars stations retrograde today at 28 Aries and it does so, kicks up impulsivity. It’s like the final jab before a 2-month retreat as Mars retraces its steps and redirects its volatile energy.

That Mars is squaring karmic Saturn suggests endings - whether strategically planned or impulsive - are part of the current redirection of energy. Saturn may provide the reality check, karmic reckoning or the pressure that breaks the final straw. There’s an opportunity to shift gears, especially if something about the current direction just doesn’t feel right. Mars in Aries is especially instinctive and as quickly as the fire of motivation is ignited it can just as quickly be snuffed out.

Rage and anger are protector emotions. Like warrior guardians, they fiercely defend that which is beyond our consciousness such as sorrow, shame and grief. When the traumatized inner child is unprepared, these defenses can be of great help to maintain what is not yet ripe enough for consciousness.

Mars also co-rules Scorpio, the Underworld of secrets, taboos, suppressed resentments and subversive intentions. This journey offers an opportunity to explore the source of our motivations, confidence, passion or lack thereof.

Reflect on your Aries and Scorpio Houses and ask yourself:
• What motivates you to keep going even when all seems lost?
• What drives you to go it alone and risk it all?
• If you had abundant self-respect, would you still need to defend yourself?
• What resentments need to be resolved, confronted or cut loose?

"The New Moon in Leo on August 18 supplies a furnace of centering fire to carry us forward across the difficult and treacherous astrological terrain of the next three months. The Leo New Moon is in the home of the Sun, the great star at the center of our solar system whose steadfast motion and radiant light generates life and creates the astrological cycles we use to measure our quality of time. We are entering a period of extremely volatile astrology that will amplify the polarized conflicts already set in motion, yet with focused intention it will also be possible to determinedly create and steadily build significant work."

A heads up! Retrograde Re-Wiring

Tuesday’s Leo New Moon August 19 2020 is a veritable bonfire of the vanities. The ultra-transformative retrograde triple conjunction of Jupiter/Pluto/Saturn is exactly square Eris conjunct Mars in Aries. Eris/Mars set alight a Grand Fire Trine to the New Moon and Mercury at 26 Leo and the karmic South Node in Sagittarius right on the Galactic Centre.

Since we are in a period of Retrograde Re-Wiring with 7(!) outer/deep space planets retrograde, it looks as if the ongoing flux, chaos and disorder will be amplified by take-no-prisoners Mars in his own gung-ho sign. There will be a lot of frustration expressed by people with no voice who need to be heard - the 99%.

Adding a karmic twist, this New Moon is within 2 degrees of the Great American eclipse of August 2017 which literally divided the United States as its shadow passed silently over the land and brought huge tornadoes, flooding and wild fires in its wake in Texas and California. Climate change suddenly became very real and moved right up the agenda.

At this New Moon, many of the states in second lockdown because of Covid 19 are also below that eclipse line. It is bringing home the reality of the political, social and wealth divide as well as the shattered healthcare infrastructure.

In your own life, you might want to literalise/ground the South Node of Fate New Moon energy by removing psychic dross that keeps you stuck in the past by doing a ritual to cleanse and clear your own space and your own ecology. Smudging or writing down what you want to release then burning it to ashes in a bowl would work well to amplify the fire energy available for creativity.

Slow down! This pairing of Mars and Jupiter, two high-energy planets, revs up enthusiasm, adventure, and the quest for justice.

"Poets see through time and space. They are blessed by visions beyond their cultural conditioning. As devotees of the muses, poets write history as an act of love. They write when they are victorious and when all is lost. In dark times such as these, the light that poets offer is a great gift, and should not be denied. Poets know the suffering of the world. But they also see the tremendous spirit in humanity, the divine aura that is undeniably holy."

On June 21st, the annual journey of the Sun reaches its climax at the solstice, leaving the mental agonies of Gemini behind for the dreamy sentience of Cancer. In the northern hemisphere, the solstice is the Sun’s climax of light, heralding the dawn of summer....
