The Sun has just entered the sign of Scorpio, which is ruled by Pluto. The Phoenix is often used to represent Scorpio. It is a mythical creature who is able to re-create itself from its own funeral ashes. Harry Potter fans will remember it as Dumbledore's familiar.
This is the time when the veil between the worlds is thinnest and it is celebrated nowadays by the holiday of Halloween. This is a sacred time, when we have greater access to other realms.
Next weekend (Nov.1 & 2) I will be attending the San Francisco 2012 Conference - "Shift by the Bay". I just finished reading "Maya Cosmogenesis - 2012" by John Major Jenkins and have been re-inspired. You can read more about this at my blog: Wise Women of the West.
I feel a special connection to this alignment because 1) I have natal Jupiter sitting right at the degree of the Galactic Center opposing natal Uranus and 2) My 10th house cusp is conjunct the Pleiades. The meaning of these elements of my chart are becoming clearer to me all the time.
I truly believe that astrology and flower essences are healing tools that can assist people in their transformational journey. I write about flower essences on my blog: Hamida the Herbalist.
Among the qualities of Scorpio, the 8th house (its natural house), and Pluto, are an interest in investments, inheritances, other people's money, sex, death and all taboo subjects. In honor of the Sun's ingress into Scorpio, I would like to offer the readers of this blog the following:
During the sign of Scorpio, if you buy one of the reports or calenders advertised in the sidebar, you may have a second one of your choice, FREE. The one of lesser value will be free. Just order one by clicking the graphic and going through PayPal and when you leave your data, specify which report of equal or lesser value you want free. I will then send both reports via your email as attachments. If you have any questions as to what the reports are like, you can view samples by clicking the graphic and following the links.
The reports are:
The Sky Within - a reading of the entire chart - available in English or Spanish.
Friends and Lovers - a comparison of two charts which discusses positive and challenging elements - available in English and Spanish.
Opportunities - a reading that focuses on career choices based on your chart.
Asteroids - a reading of the four major asteroid Goddesses and Chiron in your chart.
Your Spiritual Path - a reading which focuses on directions and paths which may inspire you based on your chart.
Day Watch Calendar - a calendar showing transits to your natal chart through a whole year. You can specify the start date.
You don't have to use your real name, but I do need the birth data to create the report.

Full Moon in Aries - Oct. 14
It's Full Moon time again. Now that I am posting about the full and new moon phases - they seem to happen so fast! This time it's a Full Moon in Aries.
Stephanie Austin, in The Mountain Astrologer, says Full Moons are power times. She says we can better see where we are coming from and where we need go.
I don't know about you, but I feel sort of blah. Lots of ideas, but not enough energy to manifest them. I can definitely feel the days shortening and the temperature dropped 30 degrees in one week. Already at night it's 36 degrees!
Austin says that since the Moon is in Aries, ruled by Mars and the Sun is in Libra, ruled by Venus, this Full Moon has Venus energy(compassion and love) facing Mars energy (individuality and courage). She suggests that the more we develop our Aries side, our ability to know who we are and what we want, the better we can do Libra, the art of relating to and learning from someone who is different.
I agree completely. Most people need others in their life to fill their own emptiness or make up for their own lacks. Rather than identifying and exploring their own ideas, they follow others like sheep. Their lives are unsatisfying and empty. Depression and despair follow when and if they finally realize their condition.
Austin suggests we look for where the Sun is in our chart - 22 degrees Libra - this is where you are being called to negotiate and see things from another point of view. The Moon, at 22 degrees Aries, is where you need to clearly express your desires and intentions.
For me, Libra is in the second house - my resources and what I value - and Aries is in the eighth house - investments and other people's resources. Okay, in light of this advice, I am willing to receive copious and unlimited amounts of other people's resources (money) to improve the quality of my life and permanently improve my net worth. How's that?

You Made My Day
Oh I'm so excited! Just won an award and wow! did my Saturn transiting the first house need that! Sold a book and got some clicks on my ads! Big day in blogland! Have been so busy getting ready for craft fairs (where I sell my herbal products and soon my line of Pluto Elixirs) that I have had little time left for posting, dropping, commenting and all the 'hard work' of blogging - LOL!
Was just asked last night by friends how much money I make doing this and had to tell the truth. But the truth also includes my commitment to continuing because my guidance tells me it is the right thing for me to be doing. So today when I found out that I got this award from Witchy Mama, plus sold a book, plus got clicks on my ads - well, that was the response from the Universe that I needed.
Thank you so much WitchyMama!
My choices for the award are: (I wish I could give it back to WitchyMama, but I don't think that's how it works)
Herbs 'n Oils
Mermaids Treasures
My Gypsy Goods and her other blog - Alteredevents
And my cat Melody said we must include Luxor, because she just loves the White Cat.

First of the Month Give - away
The First of the Month Give-away will be the Opportunities Report. An in-depth personalized report by astrologer Stephanie Clement on your vocational aptitudes from the astrological perspective.
Thinking of a new career or change in your current career? This report can help you see aspects of your personality in relation to your work life. How can you best utilize your talents and gifts?
