Welcome to Scorpio Season!

The zodiac sign of Scorpio is represented by Death in the tarot major arcana

Welcome to Scorpio season! 10/22/24-11/21/24

If you’ve been feeling the pull to explore the unknown—whether it’s the hidden corners of your own psyche or daring to take a peek behind the veil that separates the physical and spiritual realms, you are not alone. Scorpio energy thrives amidst the mysterious, the macabre, and in unearthing what lies beneath the surface.

Some of these things aren’t so pretty, but life isn’t always rainbows and sunshine, is it? Scorpio season is when we get real with ourselves and others. It’s when we dare to explore what lurks in the shadows, what goes “bump” in the night. We embrace our dark side by embodying our alter ego, whether through costumes, home decor, and even in the way we interact with world around us.

There’s just something about the “vibe” this time of year…

During “spooky” season, we give ourselves permission to step into our more mysterious, powerful selves. We confront the fears and secrets that have been hiding in the corners of our minds by cavorting with them. As we release judgement and accept the invitation to “dance with the devil” for just a little while, we realize that every shadow does indeed, have a lesson to teach.

The major arcana tarot card that is associated with Scorpio is Death. The image on this card can be quite jarring to the uninitiated, but it stands as a powerful symbol of transformation. It is said that death is but a transition of energy from one plane of existence to another. Look closely at the image on this card. Do you see the sunrise in the background, and the flowing waterfall? Death is nothing to fear. The old energy is being cleared out to make room for something new. The process is not always comfortable, but it is necessary.

Scorpio season invites you to reflect on the areas of your life that feel stagnant—whether it’s a job you’ve outgrown, a hobby that no longer excites you, or a friendship/relationship that feels stuck. These aren’t just external challenges; they’re signs that you are undergoing a deep, internal transformation. Scorpio’s energy pushes you to confront what is no longer working and to ask yourself, “What am I ready to release in order to make room for new growth?”

So, what shadows will you be exploring this Scorpio season? And what do you expect to find there? Keep an open mind as you’re bound to encounter some interesting dance partners along the way, all of which have something to teach you. Give yourself permission to engage in the dance; no matter how uncomfortable it feels at first, and trust that every step you take is leading you closer to a more authentic, empowered version of yourself.

Happy Scorpio season everyone!
