Scorpio Season: Desire, Power & Unfinished Business: There is a particular intensity to the astrology this week as we move deeper into the territory of desire and power dynamics of Scorpio season. The first half of October has already been asking us to reconsider our relationships, financial commitments, and the value we place on our time and energy. This week, we may confront attachments that influence our decisions more than we realized. It's also a powerful week to recognize where our desires have changed, or return to conversations that never reached a satisfying conclusion. There is also a strong emphasis on the relationship between what we want and what we are willing to do to have it. This includes recognizing where we may have become overly attached to a particular outcome, person, or idea of success. As Scorpio season begins and Mercury joins Venus in retrograde, the next several weeks offer an opportunity to understand the motivations and patterns that have been shaping our lives recently. What we discover can significantly influence the choices we make moving into the final months of the year and show us how we can begin "The Witches' New Year" (oct 31) more intentionally. Witches' New Year Reading: only available to book until Oct 31- can be scheduled through Nov https://www.cardsyb.com/samhainsovereignty Newsletter: www.cardsyb.com Book a Reading https://www.cardsyb.com/private-sessions

Much of the recent astrology has asked us to look underneath things: Venus retrograde has been excavating desire, relationships, and money, while Pluto retrograde has been conducting a much longer examination of power. This week starts to change the direction of travel. There is a difference between understanding what needs to change and being ready to take inspired action. Where have you become more aware of your own authority over the last several months? Where are you ready to stop negotiating with something you already know?

This week opens with the Sun in Libra opposing Saturn in Aries on Sunday; the desire for harmony runs directly into Saturn's demand for accountability. Tuesday, Mercury meets Venus retrograde in Scorpio, and the week's most psychologically charged moment arrives: the planet of communication meeting the planet of love and desire in the middle of her retrograde. Wednesday, Mars in Leo sextiles Uranus in Gemini, and the creative and electric energy picks up considerably. The week closes Saturday with the New Moon in Libra, planting intentions around partnership and reciprocity while Venus retrograde is still doing her excavation work in Scorpio. This combination gives the new moon a powerful advantage. We also chat with Jill Dearman, an astrologer and author who has appeared on the Woo Woo with Rachel Dratch Podcast and featured this month in Chronogram magazine.

The post-full moon energy from last Saturday is still hitting us as the week opens, and then Mercury in Scorpio squaring Pluto hits at the end of the week, bringing intense conversations. Saturday, Venus stations retrograde in Scorpio, and energy around love, desire, and money turns inward for reevaluation over the next six weeks. Venus retrograde is rare enough that when it happens in Scorpio, it tends to feel like the universe pulling back a curtain to deeper layers of healing. We also chat with Sarah Gregg and Jill Ritchie who founded The Intuitive Psychology Association, where they're challenging the idea that psychology and intuition belong on opposite sides of personal transformation. Instead, they believe lasting change happens when the two work together.

We have a really powerful week coming up including the fall equinox, Mabon and the first day of Libra season, all falling on Tuesday Sept 22nd his week brings a lot of transformative energies, not the lease of which is the virgo to libra transition, which asks us to examine the inner truths that were activated and realizations we have experienced in the energies of the Hermit and how we find balance between our personal aspirations and truths and our relationship with others and the outside world as we move into Libra. The Sun trines Pluto on Friday and what Libra season is clarifying finds transformative depth. Then Saturday the Aries Full Moon arrives with Chiron retrograde sitting directly alongside it and whatever has been living unaddressed in your sense of self gets a big moment of visbility.
