Hail New Moon in Scorpio!
Hail Occupy Wall Street! Let us all flex our voice, including the one in our mind!
Remember this. The economy is what we say it is. Our individual ideas may be influenced by a collective experience and ideation, but we have our own individual plug into it. When you get right down to it, the economy is a made up thing. There are events, the telling of events, and the accepting or not accepting of events. There is the conversation with co-workers at lunch and the conversation around the family table. Roles are being assigned and assumed. What are you saying? Human does not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds out of the mouth of the Word. So when you open your mouth and make sounds, what are you saying and what is it creating?
You are grown. You are responsible for how you define what you see and what you say about it.
So, how do you like your prospects? How do you turn your mind? Are you beside yourself with worry? Are you so desperate that you are conniving to make it happen fraudulently? Are you blaming somebody and waiting on them to change too? Are you confident that you live in a generous universe? Do you stay connected to the Source to by what you think and say?
What you think and say influences how you feel, and how you feel influences what you think and say.
Scorpio is a water sign. Water represents emotions. Money is emotional. Having and not having is emotional. It is moving, affecting, sensitive and sometimes disturbed or upset. When we say money has energy we are talking about the fact that our thoughts and images program our perceptions, beliefs and subsequent actions and reactions. I was recently doing a writing exercise suggested by my writing mentee. She has to do an essay to say how her environment and family have shaped her. I always write on the same thing she is writing on while she writes. I found myself writing about sometimes going to Gil’s grocery store across the street from the Cooper Park projects with a note or verbal instruction for Gil to put the groceries on the bill, meaning we did not have the money to pay for the food we needed. I hated doing that. I felt ashamed. It is interesting to me now that I said “we” did not have the money, because as a child, the money wasn’t mine to make, but as a family member my family’s financial situation determined mine, and much of what was determined was my emotional relationship to money. My mother probably felt shame when she wrote the note or gave the instruction. Part of what I felt would have been based on her feelings and whatever associations I had learned to make of wealth and poverty, of people who can take care of themselves adequately or lavishly and those who need help with the basics.
This is an example of the association of money and Scorpio-type emotions, which are known to be strong in the extremes and based on impressions that are not necessarily factual. A feeling is what it is, and it often represents likes and dislikes, acceptance or rejection. Feelings can be carried over and poured over future situations that may be similar or different. Scorpio represents an emotional “we.” All of the water signs do to some degree. Cancer is “we” of family and Pisces is “we” of the world community. Scorpio is we have—or don’t. We are living it up, or we are not. We have a lifestyle with no limitations based on money, or we have a lifestyle of holding on for dear life. There is also a “we” in relationship to the banks and financial institutions and in connection with taxes.
Be careful of what you are creating. If you don’t like where you appear to be financially, don’t language your condition so that it will repeat. Say, “I’m on a budget,” not “I’m broke.” Say and believe, “I can get a good job, even in this economy. Some people are changing jobs and getting good jobs, I might as well be one of them.” Say and believe, “I will continue to live in my house. I accept the wealth that is mine to possess.”
Be careful of how you speak of the wealthy. Don’t paint everyone with one broad stroke. You plan to be among them, don’t you? I mean, if you were given 100 million dollars, you would take it, wouldn’t you? Don’t speak of yourself as an outsider to wealth, when wealth is yours to have. If you language yourself out, you’ll stay out. If you language yourself in, nothing, not even “the economy”, can stop you.
Let’s “pre-tend” (tend to ahead of time) that our connection to the economy is solved and solvent. We recognize that we don’t have to solve the whole economy, just our part in it. Nothing has to change out there in order for us to be fluid financially. This gives us confidence. Confidence is can do, do have, thank you. Confidence is poised self-assurance, buoyancy and coolness. Confidence is being certain of the outcome, and so thinking and operating from this position.
Confidence isn’t bowled over by appearances. Confidence expresses itself in gratitude. Thank you Universe, One-Turning, for a steady flow of riches. This is the true and natural order of things. We have a right to be rich, and it doesn’t depend on another or others or the economy. It depends on what we are confident about. Some of us who are angry, frustrated and broke, were angry frustrated and broke before and might be even after a fix, if that were possible, were in place.
I close with the words of Wallace D. Wattles, author of The Science of Getting Rich. I edited in feminine words for masculine. It’s nice for girls to not have to make the genetic switch all the time.
(www.thescienceofgettingrich.net):
The object of all life is development, and everything that lives has an inalienable right to all the development it is capable of attaining.
A person’s right to life means her right to have the free and unrestricted use of all the things which may be necessary to her fullest mental, spiritual, and physical unfoldment; or, in other words, her right to be rich.
Imagine that you have the right to grow, advance and develop way beyond your present limits and expectations.

Love this! Thank you for being vulnerable in your writing and words. This was beautifully put and inspiring. And thank you for the feminine pronouns!
Thank you Kali. I appreciate your comments. My vulnerability feels protected by the value you found in it. Glad you liked feminine pronouns too!
