Power by Design..New Moon in Scorpio 2021

   Awe, what an eventful next few days! Tuesday, November 2nd, Election Day in the U.S., the New Moon in Scorpio on Thursday, November 4th, and then Venus moving into Capricorn and Mercury into Scorpio the following day. At 4:15 p.m. EST on November 4th, the New Moon displays its power at 12° Scorpio. The Sabian Symbol in the phase of Communion, stating, “An official embassy ball.” The collective, at its highest standing in culture, alters between the representatives of the elite of the ruling class. How appropriate, and even more backing it up, is the Ascendant in Pisces conjunct the Part of Fortune at 25°. In the phase of perpetuation, the Sabian Symbol states, “A religious organization succeeds in overcoming the corrupting influence of powerful practices and materialized ideas.” 

Oh, my ass is on fire! Pisces at 25° is where my Sun sits in my natal chart, my innate rebellious qualities activated, and my purpose renewed. We are all born for this minute in this time, our lives, our foundations a fusion of what we have built upon. If we have listened to our intuition, and the other issues going on around the world, and in our own communities, we know where we stand, holding onto the light, being the light.

But I digress as I offer this personal information. Mars and Vesta are in Scorpio as well, and the New Moon sits in the 9th house of this chart, speaking of, reiterating the importance, the sacred ritual of awakening that which is. To amplify this shit even more, the New Moon is in a wide conjunction with Mars, and Mercury in Libra at 28° in the 8th house, the four planets opposing the “Awakener of all time, Uranus, both squaring Saturn in a fixed T-Square. Purge all that is necessary from the restrictive institutions, stand your ground with your boundaries, with what you know is so deep in your subconscious.

Saturn is relentless, on either end of the polarities, but Faith (Jupiter), which also happens to be traveling through the 12th house with Saturn, is just as deep set and Jupiter is always on the quest for truth. Juno, the South Node, Midheaven and Venus jaunt through Jupiter’s territory of Sagg. Venus sextile the New Moon stellium, love for adventure, and truth, dedicated and remembering how valuable, how amazing we really are as humans, as a community, local or world-wide.

Saturn sextiles Chiron retrograde in Aries, the second house of this chart, an opportunity into healing our wounds, our self-image, that which we value as our self-worth, from the depths of our cellular memory. Where is it that we find home? The North Node, Ceres, and Lilith in the 4th house of Gemini, and Cancer, the 5th house, speaks of home, our children, our creations, that which we dwell on being safe and secure and the raw power that we have to nurture these qualities.  

This Scorpio dominant stellium happens to be square Pluto as well, the determination, intensity, motivation, and obsessive-compulsive desire to change the patriarch, the Deep State, of the collective. Pluto’s sextile to Neptune retrograde, a blessing in disguise, our spirituality deepening, remembered Faith, creatively integrating throughout our lives. The semisextile to Jupiter, giving ample opportunity that must be jumped on. Neptune retrograde trines this stellium, an ease of peaceful demolition, the need to be better than those we oppose, not sinking to the deceitful, ghastly, narcissistic levels of what is obvious in front of us. Love conquers all. Neptune guides our anger, our desire for freedom and peace, to be ever loving. After all, it is only when we are aware that we can begin to change what is in front of us, but also, that anger is quite necessary at times in order to motivate us to be the change. Our choice on how we are the change, good or bad..

It is an emotionally, intense month. How can it not be with Scorpio as the New Moon and its rendezvous with Mars, or Pisces working on the front lines? It is a month of change, and how daunting that the New Moon, with all that emotion, can focus on our intentions. Journal them, pray, perform a ritual in honor of demolishing that which no longer serves us, big or small, and going forward with the intention of our highest good. God, the Universe, whoever and whatever you believe in, it should not matter if the intention is set for the highest good of all.
