And this is like SUCH a Scorpionic look from ultra-Scorp Anna Wintour. She’s prob pissed off at all the Virgoans Of Fashion. The girl next to her looks as if she is in intense, silent prayer.

This is astronaut Steve Robinson, playing guitar in the new space station. I love this guy! He’s also an artist and he plays in an all-astronaut band.
His c.v. is well, um, impressive + he appears to be single. Peeps who like your space, this could be JUST your guy. He’s away a lot and is not, obviously, the kind of guy to ring up grizzling.
But what about his astrology, I assume you are thinking.
The space-gent is a Scorpio and he has Venus conjunct Saturn in Scorpio.
So, fear not, he likes his space too! He would take intimacy very seriously. When not in space. What else?
Jupiter-Pluto in Leo so he is like a touchstone for his generation of baby-boomers: Space exploration & rock and roll…Uranus in Leo square his Sun – individuated the max and showy about it too.
He’s also got the North Node in Sagittarius. The North Node is the Destiny you need to manifest…Let’s just simplify Saggo right down to travel, fresh horizons and new vistas, a world without borders & voila…
Hey it’s the Dark Moon already. How did that sneak up? Oh well. The Dark Moon right before a major New Moon (another Eclipse but way more about bold new beginnings & less emo than that New Year Full Moon shitfest) is always extra-dark.
You power on through it by not ducking you own neg-feelings as they pounce up AND looking after thyself. Not the time to go cane it in a post-Chrissie re-tox or perform a bonkers back-to-the-ex-stunt to celebrate Mars Retrograde. No-no-no.
Everything is new again from the middle of January, you can’t go back so don’t even try. As you know, cull in the Dark Moon & rest when you can.
Eros is nearly on the Zero Degrees of Aries Point – yay – primordial desires can be tres motivating, yes?
And no matter where you are in the world, the Moon will be in Scorpio for the entire weekend. V.potent, spooky & to be treated with respect. I’m thinking it will be a bit more productive than this Libra Moon. I keep compulsively applying handcream and trying to scent things.
It may not seem like much is happening on the outside but there is a lot of transformational qi churning away, readying itself to manifest after the New Moon…
Remember also that the only thing in Fire right now is Mars & he’s RETROGRADE! You have to create artificial Fire via exercise and really batso, over the top but brilliant Aries-style (think Ramzilla on a motivational bender) pep talks to yourself.
Despite the libidinal under-throb of the sexy & ambitious trine between Mars and Venus, the Dark Moon has always a sombre edge.
It naturally involves the surfacing of old emo & the residue of not-quite-done-with-yet angst. Tres psych of course & one’s mind turns to 8th house matters; sex, death, the occult & other peeps money. Go with it for the rebirthing potential & best to do one’s existential mope-out now as it’s all go from the New Moon in Saggo on Weds.
Plus Venus is going merrily ape, trining Mars, then squaring Uranus and THEN conjuncting Pluto + whizzing over an Eclipse degree. Ladies, you may want to exfoliate/wax in between the bouts of metaphysics & random irritability surges toward ex-lovers that goes with the Dark Moon.
The Scorpio Sex Academic has a book called Flirting For Dummies which she swears I should borrow as it’s so brilliant.
I honestly don’t think i need it. The main thing it seems to have done for her is add a whole new cabal of men into her life – flirtees who are not being at all considered contenders for a relationship nor even a fling but whom are engaged in an active flirtship. The book says that done properly, flirting is practically aerobic and certainly endorphin inducing.
Apart from Libra, I don’t think the Cardinal signs are so good at it – they often don’t bother unless they think something is going to “happen” and then they always want to “follow through.” It’s like they are turned On or Off. Cardinal Signs; Aries, Capricorn, Libra, Cancer.
Virgos are often so attentive and engaging that people THINK they are flirting when really, the poor Virgo is only being polite. Aquarius psycho-flirts. Comes on strong and than takes off fast.
Geminis & Pisceans are definitely the best flirts of the Zodiac…Leos are often too up themselves to show the requisite interest in the other person although Haute Leo (if he/she thinks you are important or beautiful enough) is amazing at it. Saggo is brilliant, so long as their target maintains the correct sporting attitude.
Thoughts? And your fave flirting styles + sign.
Welcome to the ides of the Dark Moon in Scorpio!
It sounds ominous but it’s not really. Oh well, it IS if you take ‘ominous’ to mean pertaining to omens et al.
If you can hover elegantly above lower-Scorp style emo (paranoia, plotting petty revenge, sexual manipulations, google stalkery) & try to do Haute Scorp (the Phoenixing, holistic makeover moments, ‘as god is my witness i’ll never go hungry again’, soul-mining) then you get to be tres Tesla with the Sun-Uranus Square. Remember – squares make things happen.
Also, something to think about before the New Moon in technicolour Saggo on Weds: What skin (s) have you shed this year…elegantly or otherwise?
Okay so what are your Decadence Settings for this holiday season?
Are any of you planning to go totally ape at some party? Hide out at a health farm for the duration and emerge looking sensational in January whilst all your friends cower on their couches reading self-help books or yet to emerge from their Carb Coma???
My feeling is that the Mutables (Gemini, Sagittarius, Virgo and Pisces) will be celebrating Saturn having gotten off their arse. And Pluto too. They will be in a mood to reprise the decadent self of their yesteryear, only with some of their hardwon sagacious wisdom blended in to the madness. They’re thinking strategic pulling, no nonsense and no Qi wasted on twerps or pointless liasions. See? Saturn worked. But make no mistake about it, they’re getting ready to act up.
Those signs currently under the pump of Saturn and Pluto: Aries, Libra, Cancerians and Capricorns will be looking at working way up to the last possible minute, maintaining their health regimens with absolute rigour & trying not to resent the enforced sloth and frivolity too much.
So we’re looking at the Fixed Signs – Aquarius is v.sensitive due to all the Neptunian/Chironic/Jovial action in their sign so they may be adopting a more spiritual-edge celebratory attitude this year. An official love-in. Taurus is – as always – fantastic at relaxing and banqueting, regardless of the occasion. If it’s trad in their circles to get trashed and dance on the table wearing nothing but a bit of tinsel, then Taurus will do it, no worries.
Scorpio & Leo are both equally determined to do the season on old-school, Saturnalia style; huge floral arrangements, grandiose tie-breaking with all ex-lovers, mead or a version there-of and sex.
Someone should quickly open an Xmas/New Year Retreat for Capricorns who are not in the mood to do Christmas, their birthday, carbs or leisure.
Yes, the Sun can be Void too…
That is, between major aspects before it moves into the next sign. So the Sun is now Void in Scorpio…it makes no major aspects before it moves into Sagittarius this weekend.
No need to flip – it’s mellow & metaphysical. But maybe be extra alert for elements of lower-Scorp behaviour so that you may modulate it. Haute Scorpio is the Phoenix. Lower Scorpio is the Scorpion, scuttling around the desert with the constant shits because their stinger is sandbitten or whatever, maybe because said Scorpion is seemingly unable to mate (or even flirt) without involving ’stingplay’.
I may have misread the Scorpion entry in my textbook but that IS the gist. Vengeful and kinky – if the Scorpions had internet access, they would definitely be on Google Earth with their stingers out, cross-referencing back to inland revenue and/or the doctors records they’d “Paid” their Ex-Ex to “acquire.” That’s LOW Scorpio I am talking about…
But you don’t want to go Scorping out when the Sun is Void there…
‘Each person is a sun and a moon, and a heaven filled with stars. ‘
Paracelsus
Astrologer, occultist, alchemist, doctor, radical & magician – He’s totally fascinating. From his Wikipedia entry:
“….His wanderings as an itinerant physician and sometime journeyman miner [5] took him through Germany, France, Spain, Hungary, the Netherlands, Denmark, Sweden and Russia.Paracelsus did not think of himself as a magician and scorned those who did, though he was a practicing astrologer, as were most, if not all of the university-trained physicians working at this time in Europe. Astrology was a very important part of Paracelsus’ medicine. In his Archidoxes of Magic Paracelsus devoted several sections to astrological talismans for curing disease, providing talismans for various maladies as well as talismans for each sign of the Zodiac. He also invented an alphabet called the Alphabet of the Magi, for engraving angelic names upon talismans….”
Paracelsus pioneered the use of chemicals and minerals in medicine. He used the name “zink” for the element zinc in about 1526, based on the sharp pointed appearance of its crystals after smelting and the old German word “zinke” for pointed…” He even makes it into Harry Potter.
Seriously, what is going on here?
We rule out Virgo immediately. Lipstick stains are hell to get off glass.
Sagg would scribble on glass, no worries, but would a Sagg be so long-winded? I think not.
Pisces would not write so neatly though the concept would appeal.
Aries would just smash the glass or not have even bothered to hang around writing a message. Because, everyone knows, Arieans don’t take being dissed.
Scorpio? A proper Scorpio doesn’t actually write messages in lipstick. Scorpio would all ready be in the next town over, seducing your friend, accountant or agent.
Gemini or Libra would although if she’s either of those two, she’s stopped mid-scrawl with a better idea. Skywriting?
Capricorn? Gravity defying perkiness is tres Cap.
Thoughts???
