Saturn in Scorpio is throwing everyone for a loop, as long-held traditions, structures, and institutions are being quickly phased out or suddenly eliminated. For those of you who depend on the long-standing structures in your life, this may be a very challenging time for you as the people and/or systems that gave you discipline, focus, or possibly even defined your identity may be ending, leaving you with questions about who you are without them.
Mercury in Taurus combines the power of thoughts and words with earthy simplicity. Plain and simple, under the influence of a Taurus Mercury, your thoughts and words are like seeds – whatever you consistently think and speak out into the world gets planted and eventually takes root.
The more you think and/or talk about something, the more it is likely to become the reality of your life, especially under this current Taurus 3 Sun cycle which grows and expands your lifestyle resources in whichever way you choose to think and speak about them. You know that old saying – “if you say it enough times, you can make it true”. If you think it or say it enough times, it becomes your truth and eventually your actions begin to align with your thoughts and words, bringing about your conditioned truth into the tangible reality of your life.
That said, Taurus Mercury opposed Scorpio Saturn Rx @ 4:12a PDT yesterday morning. This opposition transit gives us a roughly 3-day window of opportunity (Saturday through Monday) to pay attention to what we are thinking and saying about ourselves, others, and our lives. This time is important because in the void left behind by the old structures that are now gone, what we think about and talk about is what we are planting in the fertile soil that is now cleared for something new.
What is the something new that you are choosing to create with your thoughts and words?
- Are you thinking and speaking about positive things – that new job, that new home, that new relationship, etc.?
- Or maybe you are thinking about how you can improve upon the things you already have in place.
You may even be thinking about how you really feel about the things you have in your life that define your lifestyle.
- Are your financial, material, and physical resources in alignment with the deepest truths of who you are – both your Light and your darkness?
- Is your current lifestyle really what you want for yourself? How do you really feel about the tangible yourself and your life?
Mercury in Taurus opposing Saturn in Scorpio calls upon you to get real with yourself about who you want to be. In the face of the people and/or things that you were held accountable to and/or responsible for in the past now changing or falling away, you are now free to create a new world for yourself if you choose to. You are free to be who you want to be in the world, creating whatever you want to have to live a lifestyle that fulfills you and has you feel comfortable and safe.
However, there are some of you who may instead seek a new institution to define you or give you structure and stability. Rather than striking out on your own, you seek a new structure, a new order to belong to. This may be the kind of lifestyle you choose to create to give you a sense of stability and security.
With Scorpio transforming Saturn’s old ways, use this quick Mercury in Taurus opposition to establish new ways while the ground is clear and ready for planting. The crops you plant now will begin to take root, providing a solid start to the harvest to come.
