Have you processed the pause?

Tuesday’s solar eclipse in the first decan of Scorpio (Disappointment) envelops the energy of The Sun, The Moon and Venus (Debauch) by forcing reflection. You have a period from now until the November 8th lunar eclipse to take stock of your position and make any final preparations for the future.

Where are you now?

This eclipse window maintains a prominent square between Mars in Gemini (Cruelty) and Neptune (The Hanged Man) in Pisces (The Moon.) Now, more than ever, it is crucial that you are aware of the bigger picture. The world around you is progressing through a karmic adjustment period involving elevated reliance on technology, removal of existing power structures, and renewed ideas about how the individual interacts with the collective. We see this in the long term, reoccurring transits of Saturn in Aquarius square Uranus in Taurus. You need to understand that maintaining a grip on the old world will leave you at a loss. Perfectly expressed through Ellias Lonsdale’s ‘Inside Degrees’ interpretation of this eclipse degree, we can process a way through:

“Feast or famine. Generating a world with an on or off switch. By pressing the off switch habitually, none of your deeper needs or desires are being met, and you resent this with an internal grumble that eats away at your substance. The on switch, pressed in emergencies when you have nothing left, pulls in a very full response to what you crave. Suddenly everybody and everything are there filling you up with goodies. Yet, as soon as you have had your fill, you starve yourself down to spiritual emaciation. Denying yourself everything is a karmic pattern that you are chronically hooked on. Granting yourself brief reprieves from this ancient sentence is the only way to blow off steam and survive for another round. However, you do acquire a taste for the plus state to come, realizing that if you can release the past, everyone else is willing. And all signs are forward as soon as you let up stinging yourself for past misdeeds and come afresh to life, hungry and willing.”
