“When the personality fully aligns with and serves the energy of the Soul, that is authentic power.” ~Gary Zukav.
On October 10th, Jupiter will leave the sign of Libra, and enter the sign of Scorpio for a yearlong transit. This is big news (Jupiter is the biggest planet in our solar system, after all!) as we begin to stretch and grow in new ways. Jupiter in Libra expanded our capacity to connect. Partnerships and collaborations of all kinds were forged. We became more diplomatic while exhibiting traits such as fairness and consideration. Libra is a peaceful and balanced energy; Jupiter’s presence in the sign of the Scales enhanced our ability to relate to others.

Libra is a peaceful and balanced energy; Jupiter’s presence in the sign of the Scales enhanced our ability to relate to others.
Jupiter in Scorpio, however, seeks to intensify our connections. Intimate dealings that insist we be more vulnerable feature, as Jupiter transits the sign of the Scorpion now through November 2018. For all of Libra’s charm, there is a bit of detachment associated with this Air sign, while Scorpio requires us to go deep. Depth in connection with others can be difficult for many, as inherent fears of deception and manipulation (both Scorpio words) lead to mistrust and skepticism that block true intimacy. But the reality is, no one can ever deceive or manipulate us because we each possess authentic power. Whether in financial matters, or matters of the heart, our capacity to be broken open can be measured by our ability to bring authentic truth to power.
Authentic power is power over self. It is internal. It is what allows us to let go of the things we cannot control so that we might harness a greater inner strength. Jupiter in Scorpio expands our ability to cultivate authentic power, as our will to self-determine intensifies. We can only change and grow after having identified the toxins that hold us back, be they psychological, habitual, obsessive, external, compulsive, or all of the above. Jupiter in Scorpio will drudge up the muck that resides beneath the surface of who we are, and in a big way. Skeletons in closets will be revealed. Lies will be unearthed. Wounds will be triggered. This is a necessary process that Scorpio does well. What follows will be a grand release that helps us to heal and evolve.
During this transit, not only will we transform in a most profound way, we will also deepen. We will shed old skin. We will begin to take ownership of our disowned parts. This is the beauty of integration, so do not be afraid. Remember to purge. Give yourself permission to experience ecstasy in all that life has to offer, no matter how taboo. Die the greatest of deaths. Surrender. Rise free and be reborn. Embark on this journey toward soulful liberation.
