Scorpio as Quiet Strength

Mercury lines up with Mars tomorrow morn US east coast time.  The meeting occurs in the sign Scorpio.  

Mercury on point of overtaking Mars.  They are in upper left quadrant under the sign Scorpio.


The blue M in outer circle with an arrow is the symbol for Scorpio.  Here is a video that introduces some of the zodiac signs including Scorpio.  This link goes to a page about how the amount of radiation we get from a body changes as it moves from one sign to another.  We have lost quite a bit of light during Sun's passage through Libra, and it is continuing to decrease in Scorpio.

Early Scorpio (almost 12 degrees Scorpio) is the area of the ecliptic where Mercury meets Mars tomorrow.

Then it will take almost a few more weeks to reach the Sun Mars line up.  They will still be in Scorpio.

Sun is next to Mars in lower left quadrant.  They are meeting near the end of Scorpio.


Scorpio is often associated with secrets, death etc.  I like to imagine food cooked, stored safely in sanitized jars and stashed away for future use.  Then of course there is the unattractive fruit left behind whose seed will find a place in the soil to germinate when the time is right.

Naturally (as in according to the patterns of nature) with Mars in the mix there will be quite a bit of adrenaline involved.  Mars comes with an acute sense of urgency, and it rules passively in Scorpio.

I've got to save this chart.  It's for the moment I got the thought that kindness is not something that can be enforced, it has to be learned by example.

Moon meeting Venus in early Virgo at top of chart opposing Saturn in Pisces at bottom.

It's possible to enforce politically correct behavior.  But what's correct is hard to agree on.  Kindness.  Venus is kindness.  It just entered Virgo, the sign of correct behavior.  How to hold kindness in our hearts as we debate on correct politics, correct government, correct behavior.

I learned kindness by watching carefully the people who have been kind to me and everyone they encounter, regardless of their beliefs.  We can't all do that.  The world needs fighters.  People who will heroically defend their right to exist.  But if you feel a need to be kind don't let political correctness get in the way.  It's like Jesus said about the poor, applying that same logic, political correctness will always be with us.
