The Tao of Astrology
Scorpio Rising When Scorpio the alchemist is rising, Taurus the druid is setting. Physically Scorpio Rising folks look like sorcerers, deep and mysterious with an aura of magical power. Out of all the Rising Signs, Scorpio is the most magnetic, psychically and physically. They have passionate, resourceful personalities hidden behind dark penetrating eyes, heavy foreheads, and secretive brows. With determined fleshy faces, mystery and intensity color their persona. The planetary governors of Scorpio are Mars and Pluto. Mars will add details to the persona based on its sign, house, and aspects. Pluto will color the Ascendant by its house position and aspects with personal planets. Both of these planet’s houses show areas that the person needs to channel occult power into. If Scorpio Rising is not expressing identity in a transformative or mysterious way, then the shadow overwhelms them with waves of vengefulness, obsessive behavior, moodiness, and possessiveness. Spiritually, Scorpio Rising exists as a representative of the mystery of eternity, a prophet of the interior realms of the soul. The spiritual shaman’s endpoint is to penetrate the veil of death for the purpose of rebirth. They can literally transform the collective pain into pure loving energy. Cosmically, these people can guide others through the mythic Underworld across the river of transformation and into the black hole depths of eternity. They come to master the principle of surrender, of aligning their human will with the divine will. In relating with others, Scorpio Rising people must balance passion and intensity with the serenity and sensuality of Taurus, the descending sign. People who naturally have that Taurian earthiness, comfort, and serenity will strike love in their hearts. They are able to contain the fierce emotion of Scorpio Rising and can excite them in intimate situations. Scorpio Rising must learn patience, softness, tranquility, and self-worth through friendship and love. Others can show them the way to belonging in this world as they are mastering the principle of presence through interaction. The planets Venus and Ceres will add color to the expression of intimate balance by their chart positions. By their signs, houses, and aspects you can tell what kind of archetypal energy and experiences will awaken love in these highly sexual personalities. For example, if Venus is in Aries in the 5th House of Creativity, then the person will need fiery romance and playful adventure to get the juices flowing. Creative expression, drama, and charisma will attract them deeply. In actualizing the axis of life, Scorpio Rising must master the Taurian values of silence and nature reverence. In the silent temple of their heart they will discover their innate worthiness. They want to experience the powerful flow of life force moving through the body. They need interactions with others that can be magical, tantric, deep, and sensual.
