18 Degrees Scorpio
26 November
Well, it's been nothing short of A Monumental Mercury Retrograde
over the past few weeks since 06 November. Now that our Messenger is
stationed and has returned to forward motion, is it the time to truly
absorb the fullness of the transit.
At
the 18 the degree of Scorpio, this is a profound energy to take note of
wherever this point is precisely placed in the personal piece of the
Zodiac Pie. So get out that natal birth chart and start your probing as
to what the concept of 'Spiritual Material Conflict' means to you in
this area of your life as we now begin to move forward once more.
If
you are familiar with your Tarot, the 18 is close in concept to the
very same 18 Moon card in the Major Arcana. Via the Chaldeans, this
compound number represents a vibration concerning conclusions and
finalizations within the life. Singularly guided by Mars through it's
singular 9 energy granting penetration, aggression and driving forces-
the 9 always works in optimism when it rises up in courage. As we
closely examine the Chaldeans' perception, we can see why courage is the
very ingredient for ultimate success within any matters concerning the
18.
Chaldean Karmic Mystery: 18 Spiritual Material Conflict
Of
all Compound numbers, 18 has the most difficult symbolism to translate.
(the Jesus complex) The ancients describe the 18 with the following
image: A rayed moon, from which drops of blood are falling. A wolf and a
hungry dog are seen below, catching the falling drops of blood in their
opened mouths, while still lower, a crab is seen hastening to join
them. 18 symbolizes materialism striving to destroy the spiritual side
of the nature. It often associates the person or entity represented by
it with bitter quarrels within the family circle- with wars, social
upheaval, and revolution. In some cases it indicates making money or
achieving position through divisive tactics, through war or other
conflict. Its warns of treachery and deception from both friends and
enemies; also danger from the elements, such as fire, flood,
earthquakes, tempests and explosions, electrical shock or lightning. If
the name has this vibration, it should be negated immediately by
changing the spelling to equal a more fortunate Compound number. If the
birth number, extreme caution and care must be taken to meet the
challenges and dangers of this number. The only way to dilute or
diminish its effect on the life is by spiritual means, by unfailingly
and repeatedly meeting deception and hatred from others with generosity,
love, and forgiveness, by turning the other cheek, and returning good
for evil, kindness for cruelty, honesty for dishonesty, honor for
dishonor. In this way, the vibration 18 may be used for great success in
illumination and enlightenment. Those born on the 18th day of any month
have chosen themselves (on the level of the Higher Self), between
incarnations, this channel of birth (as did Jesus) as the greatest of
all testings of the soul for worthiness. Another way to dilute the
negative aspect of the 18 is to change the number of the name to any
favorable Compound number which adds or reduces to a single 6, by
changing the spelling of the name. In addition to the attitude just
counseled, this will also help to turn the tragedy of the 18 into
triumph. Remember the 6 (Love) and 9 (conflict) relationship. People
born on the 18th would be wise to plan everything of importance on days
that have a 3 or 6 vibration, as well as to their addresses, telephone
numbers, and other important areas in the life. In this way one may be
more victorious, in both the spiritual and material worlds, over the
restrictions of the 18. ~Linda Goodman's Star Signs
Now
it is best to make sure to take this and apply it to your natal chart,
yet we can also receive great advice from a collective view of how this
recent Mercury Retrograde has equally affected us via our Sun Sign
alone. If you are early in the degrees of your Rising Sign, then read
for that as well, for it will more than likely apply. As always, the
precise math within your natal chart will be wise to follow for complete
accuracy.
Aries: ‘I Transform’ Death & Rebirth/Sexuality/Wealth
Taurus: ‘I Relate’ Partnerships/Marriage/Balance with Others
Gemini: ‘I Serve’ Health/Being of Service/Employees/Pets
Cancer: ‘I Create’ Creativity/Children/Love Affairs
Leo: ‘I Nurture’ Home/Family/Environments
Virgo: ‘I Communicate’ Thinking/Mentality/Communications/Short Trips
Libra: ‘I Have’ Values/Earning Power/Possessions
Scorpio: ‘I Am’ Approaches/Mask to the World/First Impressions
Sagittarius: ‘I Process’ Inner Psyche/Clearing of the Past
Capricorn: ‘I Socialize’ Friendships/Organizations/Hopes/Dreams/Wishes
Aquarius: ‘I Structure’ Career/Public Life/Authority
Pisces: ‘I Believe’ Philosophies/Foreign Travel/Education
The
Shadow passage that will complete at 04 degrees Sagittarius for this Mercury Retrograde passage will be just as
telling as its’ Approach was that began 19 October, in where you may just feel, like things
have not really returned to normal even though the Rx is over. And
therein lies the truth of the matter. What we know, or thought we knew
to be the truth, is not going to return to the comfort zones we once
understood. Transformation for our world is officially 110% on. As we
release from the Lunar Eclipse at 06 degrees Gemini, who will be in a
very weak conjunction to Retrograding Jupiter- the finalizations coming
forth will increase our need for compassion upon this planet. Another
interesting conjunction from 08 degrees Capricorn also meets up upon
this day between Mars and Pluto. This delicate formation intensifies
energies to the potential of combative, impulsive, strict, and
relentless forms of expression; wherein unscrupulous, fanatical, berserk
and brutalities can be the outcomes if a thinking before you act
practice is not adhered to. Under Lunar release of an Eclipse, it will
be more than wise to carefully proceed.
May COURAGE GRACE OUR AGE & CURE OUR RAGE for all our Spirits.
Mercury moves forward 30 November to the 19th degree of Scorpio, and concludes the Shadow to 04 degrees Sagittarius on 13 December.
