As one of the more cyclical beings of the Zodiac, Scorpio, your sign is often associated with the snake. The snake is a symbol of power and knowledge that comes from your capacity to self-renew. To note where you are outgrowing a skin, to let go and shed it and to build the new. How conscious are you of these cycles within yourself? The more aware you are of your current season and of the ways that you, as an individual, go through your process of shedding and growing, the better. It will make this process less unconscious and well, maybe even less destructive. Your sign can move into chaos energy if your creative energy isn’t harnessed into outlets and conscious regeneration.
So, let’s start there. What seasons are you currently in as you start this year? Look back and take note of where you shed and where you grew last year. And now look ahead, what do you want to grow into, and what are you outgrowing? These may be projects, beliefs, dominant emotions and thought loops, or relational patterns. Do take note of what came up for you from the period of January 2022 until July 2023 with the South Node and eclipses in your sign. Write down the moves you made and the events that took place as this transit was really working to elevate and evolve how you experience and play your own sign, moving through old shame and inner narratives that were ‘protecting’ you from vulnerability and intimacy. Come into this year with an awareness of that.
Your ruling planet, Pluto, is making huge, transformative waves again this year. It starts the year in Capricorn, moving into Aquarius on January 20th before retrograding back into Capricorn one last time from August 31st until November 18th. At this point it will move back into Aquarius and take up an almost twenty-year tenure in the realm of the digital age: the internet, de-centralisation, artificial intelligence, ideologies and communities, and the nervous system. As it takes this final dip into Capricorn, look under the hood, into the deeper motivations and driving forces that you have assigned value to in your work and earthly responsibilities. Do they still feel true? What season(s) are you in here?
With Saturn in your fellow water sign, Pisces, for all of this year, there is the capacity to build or reaffirm the foundations you have that keep you plugged into your own energy and emotions. Your instinctual radar is one of the best in the cosmos and subtext is a language you are fluent in. However, how much time do you spend reading into other people without ever inquiring to them directly? Being around people that speak clearly and directly, that you trust, is one way to save a lot of energy that you may spend reading all that is not being said.
