Scorpio Season, October 23 – November 21, What It Means And What To Expect

Facing The Inevitable

Scorpio Season energy is largely characterized by its intensity and transformative power. Our feelings might be more extreme than usual, especially at the beginning, as we feel previous inhibitions or fears fall away. We may feel drawn to intense, adrenaline-driving experiences or fast-paced relationships. We're looking for excitement and exhilaration amidst times of change.

Scorpio Season also urges us to confront the aspects of ourselves and our lives that we may have been avoiding. We have to decide what's worth keeping, what's worth pursuing, and what to let go. This process can be uncomfortable, but only through facing our shadows can we truly grow.

What We Hide

There's also a big focus on the concept of our shadow selves. The shadow self represents the parts of our psyche that we often deny or repress, including our fears, insecurities, and unacknowledged desires. During this time, we may find ourselves face-to-face with aspects of our personality that we'd rather ignore. Maybe it's insecurity, fear of judgment, or uncertainty that stops us. Scorpio Season asks us to push past all of those inhibitions.

By acknowledging, embracing, and integrating our shadow self, we can live a more authentic life and be our true, whole selves. It's not an easy process, but Scorpio Season provides the perfect energetic backdrop for this type of inner work, offering us the courage to face our fears and welcome all aspects of ourselves.

Leaving Things Behind

In that same vein, Scorpio Season is intrinsically linked to the cycles of death and rebirth. This doesn't necessarily mean physical death but rather the death of old patterns, beliefs, and ways of being that no longer serve us. During this time, we're encouraged to let go of what's holding us back and make space for new growth.

It's only through letting go that we create the opportunity for transformation. Scorpio's energy supports us in shedding our old skins and emerging renewed. This season reminds us that change is a natural and necessary part of life. Only by allowing ourselves to be transformed do we open ourselves up to new experiences. There's power in surrender.

Greater Understanding

Scorpio is also known for its powerful intuition, meaning everyone's intuitive abilities are heightened during its season (but only those with the power to recognize it can truly use it).

To make the most of this heightened intuition, it's important to create space for quiet reflection and introspection, such as during practices like meditation or journaling. Pay attention to your dreams, as they could contain valuable insights and messages from your subconscious.

This increased intuitive strength can be a powerful tool, but it can also be overwhelming. Be sure to take ample rest and protect your peace as much as you can.

Cherish Closeness

There are also themes of intimacy during Scorpio Season, but this doesn't have to solely mean traditional intimacy seen in romantic couples. There will be an overall desire to deepen our connections with the people we love, be they partners, friends, or family. This is an excellent time to have heart-to-heart conversations, be vulnerable, and build trust with those closest to us.

Do know that this intensity can also bring hidden issues to the surface in our relationships. Unresolved conflicts or buried resentments may come to light during this time. It's tough, but it also allows these issues to be addressed openly and honestly. Either the break will be repaired, and the relationship will be better for it, or you'll know now that this person was never meant to be in your life forever.

The Strength Of The Season

When Scorpio Season draws to a close on November 21, we'll find that a lot of change has taken place in the past few weeks. We'll feel clearer, less burdened, and ready to take on the bold and blazing energy that follows, Sagittarius Season.

The lessons and insights gained during Scorpio Season tend to stick with us. Scorpio doesn't have a reputation for being intense and impactful for no reason. After all, it imbues us with knowledge, both of ourselves and the direction we're headed. It also makes us more confident in both of those aspects.

Let Scorpio show you the strength of your resilience and empower you to live more authentic, honest, and passionate lives. May we continue to honor the transformative power within us, knowing that through facing our shadows, we can truly step into our light.
