Scorpio, the sign with the deepest intensity, a sign of sensitivity, creativity and ultimately transformation, is the bridge between life and death, hope and despair, decadence or transcendence.  It seems to be the sign that confuses humanity the most because of its broad range of possibilities, talents, and purposes.

As a water sign, ruled by the planet Pluto, the ruler of the underworld, it is the most mysterious of all.  It’s celestial influence are the Guardians of Form, who provide for humanity the creativity of Thought Forms, as we know the power of the mind to lead us forward or backward according to our desires. ”I desire” is the statement attached to Scorpio.

Scorpio has three symbols, demonstrating its immense and diverse capabilities.  The first symbol is the scorpion, which can inflict pain, and even death, with its sting.  Translated into human dynamics, it can be the person who seeks revenge, can willingly cause damage, be ruthless, and show no remorse for its conduct or the pain inflicted.  Often this person turns to the darker side of life, often attracted to additions, criminal tendencies, and an unforgiving nature.

The second symbol is the Phoenix, the mystical bird (or person) who can transform almost in front of our eyes from sadness to joy, from sickness to health, from darkness to light.  This type of person we see often in our world as humanity is beset by its huge problems which cry out for solutions and remedies. These people are often mentally brilliant, using their sharp intellect and intuition to cut to the heart of a problem, discern what is hidden, and generously help, heal, and bring the return of encouragement where others have fallen into despair and hopelessness.  They are often in the medical and healing professions, the law, police, undercover and detective work, willing to work until a situation is resolved, revealed, and transformed.  Idealistic, and with great inner resources of emotional strength, they can persist until the victory has been achieved. Philosophers, teachers, scientists, doctors, nurses, artists, parents, those whose time, effort, intellect, monetary resources have been directed to become humanitarians are in the Phoenix category.

Scorpio is one of the signs of money, wealth, and power–issues which humanity struggles to acquire and to understand, and how to use these talents more wisely as we move forward thru vast shifts.  The sign of birth, death, sexuality, and the changes we see in our world that has often been hidden in secrecy, fear, or ignorance.  We learn through experience the pitfalls and triumphs of personal energy, and the power which can be used for good or ill.

The third symbol is the eagle—the mighty bird (or person) who sees the greater whole from the highest perspective with wisdom, compassion, and forgiveness.  We can think of great heroes, male and female, who have sacrificed themselves for a noble cause, whose purpose is not for themselves alone, but for the greater good.  To achieve this exalted level of vision and perspective, many lifetimes of service have been consciously developed. Ultimately, their gifts, talents, and minds are disciplined to a refined degree and their lives uplift the human condition.  Admiration, respect, and devotion from humanity are the end results, not always recognized in the lifetime in which they live.

In this time of transformation in every area of human endeavor and life, we need the wisdom of every sign.  We look to Scorpio to bring about the healing necessary between religions, ideologies, cultures, genders, races, health and wealth.  A mighty, noble, demanding task.  Bring forth Scorpio, and be transformed.

With Great Love,

BARBARA

As humanity passes through the seasonal doorway of the Fall Equinox, we enter into the transitional sign of Libra, ruled by the planet Venus, guardian of  Justice, culture, beauty, friendship, love, and the values which shape us into conscious beings. Libra is the sign that is the bridge from summer into the Season of Fall. Fall is the domain of Archangel Michael from the equinox to Winter Solstice. Archangel Michael is the mighty force of justice and courage  in the midst of world chaos and personal inadequacies and fear.

These two forces of light, Venus and Archangel Michael, work together to inspire humanity to not settle for the status quo, but to see beyond the ordinary, which we often settle for, to values which lift our hearts, infuse us with courage,  and inspire us to be better human beings. Archangel Michael awakens the memory that we can strive to attain the awareness that we are all in this situation together, and to develop new and sustainable goals, consistent with the  wisdom that each of us is a spiritual being experiencing life in a human body on planet Earth.

We know from the conditions of the present world, that humanity has forgotten its divine heritage. We have chosen, or permitted, the course of life to be diverted to materialism, the love of power, the lure of greed. Daily we see, read, and experience the results of these annihilating qualities. What we sometimes do not see, is also the power of Venus and Archangel Michael to awaken individuals, and groups, to set a course to lead us from darkness to light, from falsehood to truth in these uncertain times. We can do this. We can find the courage to live more intelligently.

The glyph for Libra is the scales of Justice, held by a blindfolded human. At this time in human history, the two arms of the scales are unequal. That is the task of humanity, to bring them into balance, to open human eyes to injustice and then to become compassionate as we acknowledge the current sufferings of the family of humanity.

“Courage is a must for the spiritual aspirant. Courage builds the heart center which can anchor the positive energies of the soul in the face of the just or the unjust,” a quote from a spiritual author in today’s world.

As an intelligent and creative air sign, Libra’s gifts for communication and social justice can lead us towards greater goals. As we increase compassion, and rebuild communities and culture which uplifts and inspires with beauty and functionality, we will be expanding into higher levels of consciousness which we will love. The future is in our hands. We are both challenged and blessed to be at a time of immense crisis leading to the greatest possible change in thousands of years. Invoke the courage of Archangel Michael, the wisdom of Venus, and live enlightened lives.

With love and blessings,

BARBARA
