Charles William Waterhouse – Lamia By The Pond
Venus is now in Scorpio, btw. Take careful note today as the Love-Goddess sextiles Pluto, stirring memories of Venusian-Plutonic shenanigans (hot, karmic, forbidden etc) from way back.
The next big Venus-Pluto aspect is at the end of the year – Venus meets Pluto in Capricorn and sparks a new cycle. But Nov is also a series of subtle hints re the 2010 Venus in Scorpio extravaganza – Venus in Scorpio from September until January.
Venus has not been Retro in Scorp since late 2002. It’s always a good one. DO avoid negative Venus-Plutonic carry on…stalkery, bitcherel and overly-intense emo. Perhaps think more in terms of elegant skin-shedding, so that may slither out of the discarded skins, all gleaming and perky again.
After the New Moon, Venus does a whole lot more of stuff – squaring Mars in Leo (always great for a good time, trining Uranus (surprise!) and squaring the Auspicious Aqua-Weirding…If you like your love life intense, bats, sexy and a bit power-trippy, this could be your sort of thing. Ditto if you feel like things have been stuck for a bit. BUT don’t push thy luck THIS week = let the Saturn-Pluto Square do its thing…It’s not exactly romantic.

Having a Venus Return today. From way back Mystic like you say as it’s my Draconic Venus in Scorpio at 1 deg.
Must have been why I felt the need to download Kelly Clarkson’s “Already Gone”. Not reccommended unless your up for a reminicing type of tear jerk.
And did a horary. My Moon degree exact on the Asc. Everything was very synchronistic today and intense. Very tuned into a vibe I could feel on the outskirts of my ethers… But went to the pool and made all the good foods to eat that are on my new plan. “Dream of Broccoli” Soup. Good for the Soul and the Bod…When in doubt, take care of yourself…
And yeah Matty, probably was a slut in a past life but damn it was fun…
Think it might have conflicted with the “Warrior Nun” thing…
-
And Trans. Sun on my Vertex 16 Scorp. today. Yep, tuned in to that big fateful spiral in the sky
-
-
OH, is that why I cried for a full half hour straight down Pacific Coast Highway tonight, so much so I think my abs got toned in the process. Gawdesss help me, stirrings indeed. Not a good night tonight, I am finally feeling things and it does not feel good.
Timely advice though, I shall grieve for my old skin even as I lose it, and keep that vision to remind myself this pain is good. I guess its just hard doing what I need to do to let things die..I know it makes room for good things, new things, a new life. I know that intellectually.
But Venus in Scorp is kicking my ass with it.
-
Saw your post on the Heartbreak thread Fallen. My heart goes out love. Didn’t want to say the Scorp transit was a possibility until you wanted/if you commented here. Guess the Venus in Scorp isn’t s omething you particulaly needed so soon?
I cried into a dish towel today myself as could feel “things” regards the Pisces. His Draconic Sun 16 Scorpio right on my 16 Scorp natal Vertex. Sun was at 16 Scorpio today. That was a very sensitive place in my natal chart when we met as Jupiter, Venus and the NN were all conjunct my Vertex opp. natal Venus that particular day. The trans. point of fortune was opp my Sun & point of fortune exact. Such a powerful line up.
I had to let go of the Pisces too for all the right reasons but certain people were/are just huge turning points in our lives. Think today’s energy just stirred up alot, you know? I do know how hard it is to be the one to say good-bye when we would have preferred not to have had to but for the right reasons we must. It’s not about regretting having done so but just sad that we had to and all the attendant memories of when things were good.
Get a good nights sleep love. x

Oh Sweetpea, that is so poignant, tears in a dish towel. Sorrow amidst the practical and day to day, I feel for you too and thank you for commiserating. I know what you mean to feel someone, its like something pulls on that invisible long resting cord then you hear the bells toll inside you, and everything remembers, your eyes, your skin, your soul. I didn’t know I would be hit THAT hard so unexpectedly, by all accounts today was like any other day but just a torrent…I LOVE Venus in Scorpio, but wish I had happier reasons to delight in it.
Take the bad with the good though and set it off to sail on its way with an accepting heart. I guess, it didn’t help that so much of this is echoing my mother’s death, and the last hours where the doctors worked and worked and worked on her, till they turned to me and said, It’s your call.
It is like that though isn’t it. You see someone you love, and you have to make a decision. Feels like grit rolling over raw skin. Thank you for writing…sleep it is. Healing dreams to you.
-
Yes, when you know you have to make that decision it so sucks. What a shit of a realization.
You’ve obviously had to make two. So sorry about Mum.
-
Sweetpea, it’s truly been a Hell of a Pluto Transit.. decisions like that, make something inside you curl up and die. Mum dying happened before last Xmas..so now I am facing her first year’s death anniversary quite alone.
I don’t think its a bad thing though it feels *(^#@!! painful, deep inside I know she would have wanted me to do this. She did find out some of the things Le Scorp put me through before she died, and she always said the same things I did, i.e. why did he have to lie etc.
But with that inherited compassion comes her strength, so I’d like to think, as awful and as hateful these moments are right now, I am honoring what she’s given me far more by doing this. It’s called being in Dignity.
-
Agree about the Dignity capitol “D”. My Mom used to get tears in her eyes when she would see me hurting/upset. She just didn’t understand why it couldn’t be done but it just wasn’t done yet.
Having my second cup of Dr. Wu tea and boy might I pay for this late night tomorrow. Good thing I get a two hour lunch and can take a nap!

-
bloody awful – kept creeping back into bed regardless of the heat – but let myself off the hook – just a hard, sad (without the tears) day . . .
-
I was you for the last 2 weeks..just be, that’s the only thing you can do. My best to you.
-
-
So this is what’s responsible for tonights awakening/tears/drama. Will have to focus more on “elegant skin-shedding” though and less of the intense power-trippy vibe. Sorry to hear Venus in Scorp is dishing it out to you too Sweetpea and Fallen Angel. *hugs*
-
Eh, ain’t nothin’ to where I’ve actually been but thanks Empress, you glorious Queen you~
-
LOL
*bows*
“I had to let go of the Pisces too for all the right reasons but certain people were/are just huge turning points in our lives. Think today’s energy just stirred up alot, you know?”
My Pisces is the cause – along with V in Scorp of course – of today’s drama. Wonder if the Pisces having a South Node in Virgo – or any planet etc. – makes it worse.
Nice to meet you by the way.
-
You too Empress….Mind if I call you Emp? Joking….Oh dear a Pisces too? His/her nodes are in Virgo/Pisces? Are they being bombed by trans. Uranus or Saturn?
-
-
-
Thanks your Highness, I take hugs where I can find them.

Adelaide is having a Spring official heatwave = -6 days over 35 degrees, minimum 26 over night.
Perfect weather for a Scorpion Venus.
Sweetpea, for celcius double it & add 30 gives farenheight temp. These temps don’t usually
happen until January.
Hot hot hot, thankfully huge pool only 200 metres away.-
i adore the heat!!
-
Pegasus, Melbourne too, is cooking and baking. At night, near midnight it’s still 30 degrees.
The effing heat wave is driving me nutso, giving me tension headaches and can’t be effing bothered to do anything. I HATE that this weather is soooo early!!! HATE IT! Seems peeps generally get s.a.d. during winter, but not me, I get it during effing hot3x weather, depresses me.-
Of course, Melba gets our weather a day or so later as we mostly gets Perth’s.
But so soon without acclimatisation is heavy without the nights cooler to reorientate.
‘Hot town, summer in the city’……………….meltdown!

pegs , any tips for tahiti? im heading over on 22 nd and all i can gather is its freakin expensive!!! im totally on a budget , ive found a place in moorea about $40 / day but the reviews say the american ex pat who runs the place is scitzo! crazy and even violent? also is there any chance of picking up over there? i know you spent some time there hope you dont mind me asking for advice and hope mystic doesnt mind either….
-
Damon, sure, can give you some help. Wish i was going with you.
It is v v expensive but does not have to be. Moorea is THE place. There is a back packers next to club med, 40 is great as hotels are 400!
Become friends with a local that fishes. Coconuts & fruit are abundant & free. Try & find Teruna Huauta, the name is well known at Moorea Village Huts. Take old jeans, surfboards, music to swap with locals, a couple of old boomboxes with batteries, will endear you. The like Aussies & NZ peeps coz of surfing culture vis a vis the French.
In Tahiti Island stay at Hiti Mahini back packers on the beach near Pt. Venus.
Bora Bora & Huanini also have the best sites for backpackers as Tahitians own ALL the beaches.
Shall give it more thought when more awake.
The south pacific franc is same as US dollar. Can sometimes pick up work at the back[ackers for free rent.
Email me if you like for other help if you wish dialexander@bigpond.com.au.-
Would love to go to Tahiti! When in Kauai, they had a festival and many groups of dancers from neighboring areas/island areas came and danced…Tahiti was one. Wow some of those outfits those gals wore they were nearly poppin’ out of ..
Have fun Damons!

it is too too hot. my poor little tomato plants are looking limp. and my poor pale skin does not like! 39 today…
The beach is ambrosial though, swimming – oh yesssssss.
and ps- pegasus i think I can guess where you live now, well have three guesses.I am having what I now believe to be called an ‘emotional affair’ – thank you oprah. with a friend, millions of emails, and internet good nights. I should not be doing this I know esp under such stars. I mean its ok if we are not physical right?? wrong. but it is my lifeline currently.
Am trying for no rash actions…
-
Thanks for the conversion tip Pegs. Sweet of you …
Day I moved here, Palm Springs, it was 46c. Highest on record 50.5. Summers usually somewhere around 40-43.
Goes on for months. Lately in 80’sf-90f.
Taken me awhile to acclimate to this. Thank God it’s dry heat most of the year. We get nearly no rain and if we do, better run outside fast and stand in it (which I did). But San Jacinto Mountain right west of me and when it snows up there get a very cold wind chill in the winter which I love. Beautiful view.
Going from desert floor to top of San Jacinto (8500 ft.) like going from Mexico to Canada in 15 minutes. People get passes and go up the tram in the summer just to escape the heat. 30 degrees cooler.

Likewise
-
I’ve jsut spent the last 3 hours talking to another Eros scorpion so bring on the new moon for me. The weirder and deeper the better
“If you like your love life intense, bats, sexy and a bit power-trippy, this could be your sort of thing” sounds like heaven to me
I’m excited -
haha! I’m busted. I’m doing all of those bad things. Ah well it’s not too late to attempt to correct it.
-
Have a natal Scorpio Venus….been strangely under-sexed for most of my life …not really all that interested in it …feels more like the Tarot High Priestess vibe maybe.
-
With Draconic Scorp Venus, agree spirit. Not necessarily the “under sexed part” for most of my life, only that it doesn’t matter that much to me now and the H.P. card is one that often shown up in my readings over the years. I have Vesta opp. Moon so a similir vibe to the Priestess I think. Chick just don’t give it away for free, ya know
-
-
what is up with scorpio sun really its gotta be intense…

Like that song William….Did you already know Neil Young is a Scorp?
-
that’s my one of my favourite Neil Young songs and definitely in my top 50 all time faves. It’s a good one to play air guitar too.
