Secret Realms Revealed
On April 30, the Solar Eclipse in Taurus called us to inhabit our bodies as a way to release the blocks that snare us in the past. Now, as we stand on the opposite shore at the Lunar Eclipse in Scorpio, we see into the secret realms of the demons that drive us. A rare window opens to understand what has been concealed and repressed, providing the opportunity to confront what holds power over us.
True Power
Mystic warrior Scorpio rides the shamanic drumbeat into the underworld, seeking transformative healing. In a lot of ways, Scorpio represents the source of our true power. This power comes from reckoning with our vulnerabilities and reclaiming the parts of ourselves locked in self-defeating and self-destructive patterns. Those brave enough to embark on this journey find the freedom to create new pathways to live in wholeness.
Accept This Mission
We live in a culture that eschews this necessary inner adventure, and as a result, is controlled by dark forces of humanity’s collective shadow nature. The astrological map of this Lunar Eclipse supports the difficult and scary process of confronting inner demons. Individual willingness to accept this mission bends the curve away from the deception of violence as a solution and towards the higher vibration of compassion. The kung-fu nuns of the Buddhist Drukpa Order exemplify Scorpio’s concentrated catalytic energy.
Your Body And Your Emotions
At this powerful Lunar Eclipse, turn to face difficult emotional content while being grounded in your body.
