Bewitching Season

Welcome Autumn and Happy Birthday Libra/Scorpio!

My favorite time of year (or one of them anyway) when the feminine fills the air and the mystery of the bewitching season guides us on. Our collective energy hunkers down: to focus (Virgo) on harvesting our gifts; to balance (Libra) our relationships with self and other; and to cultivate and generate (Scorpio) magical life force--psychic, financial, and sexual, so we may greet the Solstice light in December ready for the sacred death phase (Capricorn) of our seasonal soul cycles.

October is especially mysterious. The days grow shorter and the nights longer, leaves fall, and we celebrate All Hallows Eve, when the veil between this world and others thins so we may commune most directly with our ancestors, familial and archetypal. It is important, now, more than ever to follow the mystery of the Feminine as we personally and collectively venture forth into deep universal change. New paradigms are coming forward and the old is falling away. The Feminine will lead the way, so the more in tune we are with her the better off we will be.

On October 30th, Saturn ingresses into Libra. Saturn is exalted in Libra, yet Saturn squares Pluto this time around. This means, that the deepest recesses our our souls are called forward to responsibly uncover ancient secrets and fears (karma) keeping us from living in balance, truth, beauty and grace (Libra). The Dark Eros disguise which authority (patriarchy) has been utilizing for the misuse of resources, power, and will, will rise to the surface and for good reason. We cannot move forward without dispelling and dismantling the toxins in our selves and our environments. Saturn is the Keeper of keys at the Gate. The Dweller at the Threshold, guarding our entry through the doorway of maturation and responsible earthy living. Pluto is the Keeper of the Underworld, of our souls. She is the guardian of physical and psychological death, rebirth, and reincarnation leading us to rise out of the ashes of whatever needs to die in our lives, so we may live transformed and empowered.

For the next two and half years Libra will be in the forefront of our collective and individual restructuring, so Libras, Cancers, Capricorns and Aries (planets and angles) hold on to your seats. We are all in for an amazing ride. The last time Saturn was in Libra she brought equality, justice, and progress to the world: admitting the first female students to Cambridge; voting the first US Supreme Court female Justice into office; and employing the first black male astronaut.

Great spirits have always encountered violent opposition from mediocre minds.
--Albert Einstein

This time around, Saturn in Libra in square Pluto in Capricorn, something even more dynamic and profound will occur. What has been suppressed and "forbidden" will come to pass. The feminine will be restoring balance and she will not be forsaken, and neither will we when we follow her guidance.

The archetype of Justice will herald in a whole new dimension for us to step through. More will be revealed as Uranus (transmutation) moves into Aries (Mars-masculine archetype), in 2010, inviting the masculine to participate in ways most of us have not even contemplated that could occur within the masculine gender.

This Autumn work with the mysteries of your magical power to wield your way forward, to channel the Feminine Light, and facilitate our collective birth into a new world. Stir your personal cauldron and stir the pot of collective ingenuity too. We are on our way!

Blessed Be!
