Scorpio
The sign of Scorpio is associated with sex, death, and rebirth. The house that Scorpio occupies in the natal chart shows an area of life where one may be obsessive, have secrets, feel jealousy, and battle for control. It also shows the area where one can replenish their energy, tune into to hidden currents of meaning, be especially resourceful, passionate, private, and powerful. Scorpio is a water sign with a focus on introspection, intensity and intimacy. Ruled by Mars & Pluto, there is an emphasis on investigation, analysis, recycling, and transformation. Issues involving shared resources, taxes, insurance, banking, credit, inheritances, trust, revenge, research, and magic become accentuated during the Scorpio cycle.
There is a lot of interest in the 11-11 aspect of this New Moon. Here’s an informative article by Kelli Fox.
Sabian Symbol for 20 degrees Scorpio:
“A woman draws away two dark curtains closing the entrance to a sacred pathway.” This degree symbolizes the courage to face the darkness and the need to rely on your intuition as you plunge ahead into the unknown. Lynda Hill has an in-depth interpretation of the degree symbolism of this new moon.

The key phrase for Scorpio is “I Transform”.
Our advice for this cycle:
Use the potent energy available at the beginning of this cycle to advance your goals by taking care of unfinished business. Engaging in a productive activity that brings beauty to your environment will prove gratifying and provide a sense of stability in moments of confusion or anxiety. Stay flexible and ready to adjust to situations that impinge on the expression of your individuality, especially as it gets closer to the end of the month.
You’ll get the most out of this cycle by being conscious of what is going on within.Scorpio correlates to Introspection on the Medicine Wheel. A penetrating look of what you experienced during the Libra cycle will increase your self-knowledge and your ability to stand in your own power.
