The Scorpio Myth

“The sign of the Scorpion-Eagle represents the great turning point when the crawling worm is transformed into a high-flying eagle, redeemed, a being that must kill itself in order to become a eagle. ” – Initiation, Elisabeth Haich

The sign of Scorpio is feminine, fixed water and is ruling the times between October 23 – November 21. There are two kinds of Scorpions- one that self inflicts and poison’s till death and stings others and the one that sees through the layers of truth and serves the whole for its best. Scorpios have great bullshit detector and can sniff superficial waters from far away. They can point out the dark injustice aspects in society and are not afraid to look into matters that most find terrifying. This constellation is intimately connected with the constellation Orion. According to the myths, this giant creature was sent by the gods to chase and kill the great hero, which is why you’ll never see them in the sky together.

There is instinctive procreational power expressed by the Scorpion, while the opposite sign in the Zodiakal wheel is Taurus, who represents the fertile bride ready to bloom. This could also be seen as the mouth-rectum axes. Taurus ruling the voice and artistic values, while Scorpio rules the reproductive system and death trough transformation. The Scorpion rules sex, secrets and observation. Scorpio represents death, but also life; it is the sign of degeneration and regeneration. Part of life is elimination. Scorpio eliminates the unnecessary so that life may flourish. The Scorpions are known for their healing natural abilities, psychic powers (secondary planetary ruler Pluto) and many great magicians had powerful Scorpio aspects in their charts. In the heart of the great scorpion is brilliant Antares star, that is some four hundred times larger than our own Sun.

About Venus in Scorpio

“Oh Bast, elusive Rainbow Spirit of Sweet Delights, you are a sensuous being of alluring mystery! You have the power to lure our spirits into form by stimulating our desire. You fill us with Holy Longing and seduce us into venturing away from the heavenly realm of Spirit. If we are to possess you for even a moment, we must be willing to surrender all and dive into the mystery of life, death, and rebirth. You teach us that the mystery is to be embraced, not feared, and that the fruits of the Tree of Life are found by becoming fully human. “Pleasure is not sinful,” you tell us, “and birth does not have to be full of pain.” Teach us the secret of giving birth to ourselves again and again in blessing, not in sin.” – Shamanic Astrology

Like the magnet, Venus in Scorpio can attract or repeal. In general Astrology threads Venus position in the sign of Scorpio as dark, mysterious, obsessive and very sexual energy. Since the sign is ruled by Mars, here we have this opposing energy created, that fuels with extra attractive yumminess or deep infernal void. The dual team is “all or nothing”. For some this could be scary and manipulative energy to deal with. For others this could be powerful sex magic accelerator.

This is what taboo could be or simply unawareness of our own shadow. The secrecy of Venus in the sign of the Scorpion is one of transformation. The “Kiss of the Scorpion” is given to those who does not know how to deal with the magnetic secretive space that the Scorpio requires. Its a space of trust and once betrayal occurs, the poison sting activates. The Scorpion takes long time to let others become part of them. But once they do, they want to posses you, know every hidden corner of your galaxy and inhale all your emotional cocoa brew. Some Scorpions could be great advisors, but often won’t except anyone to give them advises. Because it takes so long to win their trusting heart, they are very loyal and make a life time friend. Scorpion are known for taking the road less traveled, therefore they are into weird, occult, mysterious, underground things. This is the most instinctual nature archetype of Venus.

Ritual to Call in and Honor Bast

Set aside some time where you will not be disturbed. Surround yourself with things that feel sensual and that you love. Light candles, dress yourself in silk or soft flannel, lie in a bubble bath or a hot tub, lie naked in the Sun or under the Full Moon. Choose whatever it is that feels sensual to you and will take you into your own body and give you pleasure. Bring with you a piece of your favorite fruit, something juicy and delicious.

 

Read the Invocation to Bast, breathe deeply, connect to your heart and to your own sensual bodily sensations. Once you feel you have made that connection, ask yourself, “What is it that I’m longing to birth?” Imagine yourself being tempted by Bast toward whatever it is you wish to birth. Feel your desire well up, your commitment to giving birth. Take a big, juicy bite of the fruit you have nearby as an agreement to give birth to the new form you are longing to bring into being. Feel that longing spread throughout your entire body. Write down your commitment and journal about your experience. http://www.innertraditions.com

The First Blood of Childbirth

Here’s an example of a spell where all our Goddesses come together. This rite is to assist a woman in the throes of childbirth who is experiencing a difficult birth. Here, the physician/magician takes on the Godform of Horus to call upon His Scorpion Wife, Sepertunenes, as well as Nekhbet, the Vulture Mother Goddess, and a prehistoric Serpent Goddess named Wenut or Unut. Finally, Hathor is invoked to give the birthing mother health:

 

Come down, placenta! Come down, placenta, come down! I am Horus the Conjurer! And the one who is giving birth is [already] better than she was, as if she were delivered. O Sepertuenes, wife of Horus, O Nekhbet the Nubian One and the Eastern One, Wenut, Lady of Wenu [Hermopolis]! Come, please, act for the one who is in Your power! See, Hathor will place Her hand on her as an amulet of health. I am Horus Who saves her! – BORGHOUTS, SPELL 61, MY CAPITALIZATION

Venus octagonal and pentagrammic behaviour

She is finally given the job of looking beautiful, and so emerges the archetype of feminine beauty and practical dysfunctionality, which for centuries was the feminine ideal and caricature. She is the “Goddess of Harmony” ruling from the skies the archetypical signs of- Libra (relating, belonging, mental aesthetics) and Appreciation- Taurus (material, physical, emotional values).

Venus arrives at the same place in the sky every 8 years as seen from Earth, meaning Conjunctions and Greatest Elongations East and West also repeat in almost exactly the same part of the sky every time round. On the way to our present-day Zodiac, then, Venus behaviour was counted along with – and calibrated against – Solar and Lunar cycles. Until the Vernal Point moved to the newly introduced sign of Aries c. 2000 BC necessitating a 12-fold Zodiac, there is considerable evidence for Venus’ implicit presence in the more common Eight-Fold Zodiacs used in Mesopotamia in the Age of Taurus (the period when the Sun rose against Taurus at the Spring Equinox).

Five synodic period of Venus, with Inferior Conjunction loops lying at 72 from each other taking eight solar years to complete, can abstractly be summarised by the repeating pentagrammic pattern. The octagonal features of Venus behaviour explain why an alternate version of the Elamite Year, like the Mexican one (Eight-fold Aztec zodiac – though known as the Sun Stone divided according to Venus sky movements -16C AD made for Moctezuma), was based on the Venus half-cycle of 292 days, with subdivisions of 8 months made up of 8-day weeks (the 8-day week survived into the Etruscan and Roman calendars).

“Venus’ northern and southern nodes lie in Scorpio and Taurus and have barely moved over the centuries. In the period when Aldebaran in Taurus and Antares in Scorpio were taken as markers of the Vernal Point when their axis on the then 0º meridian divided the sky precisely across the North Pole into two halves, the coincidence with it of the nodal axis of Venus on it at New Year must have been spectacular, likely to be the period when Venus was first allocated its rulership of Taurus and made the benchmark for Venus cycle counting.” – Pierre Amiet, La Glyptique Mésopotamienne Archaïque, 1980

Venus behaviour of supreme harmoniser in locking together Solar and Lunar cycles several times within any one person’s lifetime as well as (less frequently) those of the other planets over much longer periods. Therefore she holds a key value in understanding our own and the universal meta-psyche.

BATHE. INHALE. TRANSCEND.

Onca’s aim is to revive this sacred tradition, with symbolism for revival and regeneration, instead of judgment and punishment. The understanding of the cyclical power of Life and to show gratitude towards it, because without the seasons, our Earth would have been a very different place. Thanks to this story of transformation struggle, which blooms into fruitful harvest, we humans have existed. The wisdom here is to never forget how important for us is this balance of light and dark, summer and winter, sweet and sour.
