Now that Mars is in Aquarius, we’re in a new chapter of Scorpio Season. Why? Because Mars is the ruler of Scorpio and in Aquarius we’re taking a deep look at social values and the collective fears of humanity as well as security, stability, and connection.
Here’s some things to keep in mind. First, Aquarius is Scorpio’s 4th house. I know this is a bit of a technical point for many of you, but bear with me. The 4th is the bottom of the chart. It’s where we ground, root, and nourish our emotional needs. It’s home, family, and a place that is more out of sight from the public eye. So there’s a deep psychological current running through the air now and over the next five weeks.
Second, Scorpio is a water sign (emotion) and Aquarius is an air sign (mental). There’s a need to intellectualize what we’re feeling, see it as part of the big picture, and look to the future. There can also be an emotional coldness to Aquarius, a sign where we can rationalize to a fault, losing sight of the individual human level. Aquarius can touch on themes of feeling alienated or abandoned, too.
In short, there may be a muted feeling or quiet energy to the next two weeks. Aquarius is a sign that helps us take consciousness. So we’ll be doing a lot of deep thinking. And, with Saturn in Sagittarius, we’ll be questioning themes of faith, truth, and meaning.
