Sun and Venus are in Scorpio. 2022 Scorpio Period

How do the Sun and Venus in Scorpio affect our lives? 

Sun and Venus   As of now, it has moved into Scorpio; Venus 16 Nov 2022 'eat, Sun Stone ise 22 Nov 2022 It will progress here until .

Scorpio The period coincides with a season when nature dies. While fallen leaves rot in the soil, they also contain 'new life' by nourishing the soil. This period of decay and death is part of the natural cycle of life and prepares the ground for 'rebirth'.

Symbolically, Scorpio goes through the dark/light cycles of life in a spiritual sense, similar to this transformation process that nature undergoes. What is meant by death here is that a person surrenders to a natural end or loss in his life when the time comes. This may mean letting go of an issue/situation emotionally or spiritually, accepting and grieving losses, or letting people go their own way.

Just like the surrender of all nature, Scorpio gains spiritual power when it surrenders to a "Great Power". 

Scorpio and Determination as a Fixed Sign

Scorpio is stable as a fixed sign. Therefore, the Sun, representing desires, and Venus, representing our appetite/pleasures, have an intense, unchanging and obsessive expression here. In Scorpio, which is connected to the underworld and darkness, these wishes, desires or one's love for something/someone may be 'invisible', but this intense energy does not want to change underneath, on the contrary, it wants to change others or control people/circumstances to keep them 'the same'.

He enters into a power struggle with people, but 'in reality' he is in a power struggle against life. He says 'You change' and everything is kept under control in order to provide himself with psychological security.

Since he does not fight openly, he makes tactics/strategies, manipulates, detects the weaknesses of others and makes them dependent on him, and acts coercive in many ways. He must not lose no matter what. (So ​​he 'shouldn't die' there!)

These power struggles inevitably open the 'pandora's box'. This means a series of crises experienced internally and externally. All the fears that he does not want to face - the most basic one being the fear of losing - and emotions that have been repressed as 'bad', such as jealousy, grudge, revenge and envy, come to the surface.

Since Scorpio cannot accept these feelings within himself, he projects them onto others and tends to go to extremes (all or nothing attitude). Something is either completely good or completely bad; Someone is either a devil or an angel.  However, it is 'himself' who must find within himself the roots of this darkness he is fighting outside, correct them by revealing them, and integrate them with his personality.

While Scorpio wants to be strong, as a result of these crises he experiences, he becomes defenseless and helpless because a "Power" (Life/Universe/God) greater than himself is at work. Scorpio is about extracting 'ore' from its own garbage, purifying it, reforming all kinds of people/subjects, dealing with issues that no one wants to get involved with, reaching the truth behind appearances, researching, revealing secrets, detective work, being able to manage crises (positive use of manipulation), accompanying others' crises. He is skilled in matters such as persuasion, persuasion power and detecting people's psychological motivations (Psychotherapy).

Venus Interaction During Scorpio Period

The Sun and Venus enter Scorpio in conjunction; These two planets finalized their conjunction on October 22, at 29 degrees Libra, before entering Scorpio. (Venus was in the heart of the Sun – 'Cazimi '). Venus was the 'ruler' in Libra, but the conjunction took place at an 'Anaretic - Destructive' degree, which is considered problematic, and then Venus moved to Scorpio, where it was in a 'malefic' position, and lost power.

Venus will also be effective in the Solar Eclipse that will take place in Scorpio on October 25. We may go through a period in which Venus' expressions such as appetite (what we are attracted to in life), love exchange, harmony, sharing, material/spiritual values, relationships and most importantly the 'feminine principle' (women) are highly emphasized.

In keeping with the Scorpio theme, these experiences can be intense and transformative; We may go through a process where the things we especially value transform. On the one hand, there may be a period when what was previously valuable loses value and is left behind, and on the other hand, elements/people that were previously worthless or idle may take their place in our lives again. We may tend to accept material/moral losses and move forward by renewing our energy and gathering our strength after these losses.

Mars Progresses in Gemini

Mars, the organizer of the Sun-Venus conjunction in Scorpio, is moving in Gemini and will retrograde between October 30, 2022 and January 13, 2023, and will continue to make a square angle to Neptune, the planet of 'dissolution and illusion', for a long time. Considering that Mars in Gemini is also the ruler of the eclipse in Scorpio, our actions tend to lose orientation or constantly change direction rather than staying focused on the goal.

There is indecision, hesitation, confusion and disorganization. Just as we can create problems/confusion for ourselves about how to achieve our goals or get things done, circumstances and people can also mislead us. We can make the wrong moves at the wrong time, miss the main issues and fight in the wrong areas, and as a result, find ourselves in situations we could not foresee.

Additionally, in connection with the Scorpio theme, the period when Mars is retrograde in Gemini may also indicate a period in which we will act to radically solve the issues that have been confusing us for a while or that create a constant material/spiritual crisis. There may be experiences that will enable us to make a clear distinction between imagination/assumption/fake-reality/reality.

Although there may be a tendency to deviate from goals or escape from the truth due to indecision or laziness, focusing on the solution rather than focusing on the problem/crisis can make our work easier, as the issues triggered in our lives by the eclipse (when the time has come) can be emphasized in a way that we cannot ignore, that is, escape...
