Transcription: Moon in Scorpio: Power to Transform, High Priest AMA

[GoldenxChild1]

Okay, reading the first question: “On the calendar, when the moon is in Scorpio, it is a good time for transformations? What is meant here with transformations?”

To put this question simply, transformation is when you go from one state to another state. So, transformation in this case sometimes involves either destroying something that existed previously or recreating it in a new form. When you want to impact changes to something, like, let's say a radical change in your mindset, the word transformation—not a little change, not a little improvement, but complete difference from the first state—and we can say that you want something to transform.

And because Scorpio rules these types of transformations that come from dissolving things or changing them completely, when the moon is in Scorpio, it's a good time if you want to facilitate things like that.

Now we are going to the second question: “In which way is it different from standard improvements? What can be a transformation working?”

I think this was answered previously. Standard improvement is when you have something that is already good and it's already functional for the most part; it does not require to be destroyed or anything; it just needs to be improved, and you just need to add some elements to it. It works already; it's fine.

Let's say you have a good mentality about something and you just want to add some extra elements to it so it becomes even better. But when we are talking about transformation, we basically are talking about taking the whole building from the ground up, possibly destroying it or completely transforming it, and not just adding a couple of rooms or increasing its decoration or improving it.

So, when we talk about transformation, we should know that we talk about something that has an element of severity in it. Like it's something that is extreme from the roots to the tree. It's not like affecting some leaves and cutting some branches here and there.

Let’s say that transformation is a very radical situation. As an energy, it's a radical type of energy, like I believe it can be applied to everything. The sign of Scorpio always begins with emotional and mental changes; it's not a material change, first and foremost.

If you want to affect your own mind in a very strong way, like you want to cut ties with a toxic boyfriend or girlfriend—okay, you want moon in Scorpio for these things. If you want to ease up or detach more peacefully, you would go for Aquarius or Gemini. But if you want to improve certain segments in an already good relationship, you could go for Libra or you could go for Leo or something like that.

If you want to radically remove and transform something, you would use Scorpio. The moon in Scorpio has a misunderstood negative polarity, but that's another topic of conversation. Yes, it tends a bit toward destruction because scorpions, as a species in nature, sting with their tail, and sometimes scorpions can also sting themselves, if I'm not mistaken. Sometimes scorpions can sting their own self in order to die, which is a very paradoxical situation—almost no other animal does that. Scorpio is a very powerful and a very versatile animal, but it can also sting its own self to suicide under certain conditions. So, Scorpio is of course related to death, suicides, killing yourself in order to resurrect, and this kind of thing.

So yes, you should understand that the evolutionary and transformative parts of Scorpio unavoidably carry a sense of danger in them; they are not peaceful in nature; they are not transitions that are peaceful.

If anyone of you here is a Scorpio in their astrology, or they have a very strong Scorpio presence, you might notice that in your life you might be getting messages from crises, from sometimes brutal circumstances, from difficult relationships, and sometimes unconsciously, if you have a lot of Scorpio present in a natal chart, you might also be triggering this in your life in order to transform. Okay, which is something that we would call self-sabotage.

But it's a very mysterious sign. There is a reason why Scorpio has this mystery and allure to it as a sign. Of course, this has to do with transformation. Speaking of the zodiac signs, you will notice that a lot of them represent specific animals, and these animals are anything but a coincidence. If you want to understand the signs, you should also go into the behaviors of the animals themselves, and you will understand a lot of things about the signs themselves. So, for example, Aries as a sign, he is or she is the ram, and rams have specific behaviors: they can get into arguments very quickly for territorial reasons. These battles and arguments can sometimes be to the death, like they charge each other unstoppably for hours on end until one or the other survives. Lions, for example, tend to conquer their environments by being strong and powerful and beautiful and things like that. So all these things are codified in astrology and in the 12 signs. So, we understand what the energy of the realms supports at the current time.
