Happy Moonwane in Scorpio! La Luna appropriately salutes a newly retrograde Pluto – ruler of Scorp – and then squares jolly Jupiter in avant-garde Aqua. It’s a Goth weekend! Hilarious too that it is Good Friday – the one time fertility fest turned oh-don’t-start-one but really, any official festival SET to be on a Full Moon or closely around it has gotta be trouble.
That creature at the end of the path, above, is whom…exactly? Your Jungian ‘Shadow’ figure, longing to bond more closely with you as it’s the Moonwane in Scorp et al? Oh and b.t.w the mystical Goth significance of this weekend is even more O.T.T. as the Moon is in the Via Combusta a.k.a the Fiery Way - a part of the skies quite notorious in ancient days and Horary astrology… I never make much of it as my natal Moon is smack bang in the middle of it.
Or could the above figure just be a newly more austere acquaintance? Your own deepening awareness???
A suitable poem for ANY Moonwane in Scorp…
“…In a dark time, the eye begins to see,
I meet my shadow in the deepening shade;
I hear my echo in the echoing wood–
A lord of nature weeping to a tree,
I live between the heron and the wren,
Beasts of the hill and serpents of the den…”
In A Dark Time by Theodore Roethke - the rest is here.
Goth Easter Sunday Outfit Suggestion;
It’s Goth, could be passed off as Christian & yet the Stag horns beneath the veil powerfully evoke Pagan origins, Oestre, the Goddess of the Dawn & Fertility from whence Easter actually got its name. There, I managed a rant in only one sentence this year. No eggistential crisis.
