Scorpio Season Witch Guide
Embracing the unknown...
AWEN OF SCORPIO SEASON: Embracing the Unknown
Our tarot guide for Scorpio season is the Death Card.
When the tarot emerged in 15th century Italy, it was known as The Nameless Card for the same reasons that Hades, the Lord of the Death was never referred to by name and had no shrines.
Humans are afraid of the unknown, and death is the greatest mystery.
The Mystery Traditions, most famously, the Eleusinian Mysteries, featured the triple goddess Hecate the Elder, Demeter the Mother, and Persephone the Maiden daughter who becomes queen of the dead.
We encounter the Mysteries every time we ask: why are we here, what is the purpose of life, how was the universe created, who were we before we were born, where do we go when we die?
The Mysteries are the dark matter in which we humans are suspended, a bottomless jelly of questions that can never be answered. The mysteries are our roads to the infinite.
Scorpio season invites us to greet whatever is changing in our lives with curiosity and courage.
The Scorpio Season Witch Guide below is designed to help subscribers to Mystery Cult work through the radical changes that are going on in your life now.
To put you in touch with the spirit of the season, you can choose to do just one of the exercises in it, or if you’re working through a major transition, do them all.
Let the road we walk together in this world and beyond be the road of beauty.
May our lives be beautiful, may our transitions into the next world be beautiful, and may we all become beautiful ancestors to feed the life that is to come.
Happy Scorpio Season!
