Let it Go

Dorothy Dandridge, Scorpio

New Moon | November 19, 2025 | 28 Scorpio 12’

The tone of the New Moon is fixed water: Scorpio, sign of sex, debt, death and taxes. The aforementioned indicators might reflect our concerns. Perhaps we recall our familial roots looking for someone to blame—someone to carry that which we refuse to carry. We feel an urge to express ourselves and live a version of life that is fairytale-like—all is wonderful and we are fulfilled and happy. However, there is a stumbling block, a hitch in the get-along that is preventing us from being all that we can be. Somewhere we are stuck. It might be that we are getting in our own way, but that’s depressing to come to terms with. Because we don’t seem to be moving, making progress, it must be that way back thing is to blame.

Let it go. How do you know if you are holding something that needs to be released? One night I woke to go to the bathroom, and the trash from the kitchen had an assaulting aroma and I had to light incense, open a window and close a door against. I knew the trash wanted out, out, out, however, it was the middle of the night. I had to settle for masking it for the moment. The odor of putrefaction is a sign that the rotten thing must be eliminated. Masking, including being nice and over-caring, won’t get the job done. Physical constipation might suggest that you are holding onto something you need to let go of.

If you are not feeling blocked, hampered or slow, you must be in the flow. There is at least one planet in every water sign, and you could flow if you were not drowning in self-generated negative feelings about yourself or others.

There are six planets in this flow and a lot of harmony among the planets, but you could miss it if you are vibrating in the swamps or the dumps. Vibration is another word for the feeling that is present with so many planets in water signs. Feelings are the indicator of your vibrations, and if you change your thoughts, you will change your feelings and you will change what you are attracting.

Attraction, not assertion, is the law. No one inserts into your experiences unless you have called their input, though you may not be conscious that you called it into being. You can’t insert into anyone else’s experience either, so trying to make others change does not work.

This is a good time to contemplate what you are drawing from life, so that you can change the call, unless, of course, you are resistant and needing to blame somebody.

 Practicum

Pay attention to any signs that you are holding on to what does not serve you. Take the garbage out. Forgive yourself instead of punishing yourself over and over for the same crime. Forgive others. Forgiveness is for your well-being—not the well-being of others. Usually, forgiveness is not something we do mentally one-time and then it’s done. To forgive requires willingness, desire, and practice.
