Death is ruled by Scorpio. Scorpio 8th House. Scorpio is the natural ruler of the Eighth House of the Zodiac, commonly referred to as the “House of Death and Inheritance.”
Upright: Endings, beginnings, change, transformation, transition. The banner that Death carries has a black background, indicating an absence of light. The white rose, on the other hand, indicates beauty, purification and immortality. In the background of the card, there is a rising sun, a sign of immortality. The sun appears to ‘die’ each night but is reborn fresh and new every morning. The two pillars are guarding the gateway to the sun, symbolizing the knowledge needed to gain immortality. The boat on the water in the background is the ferry that transports the souls across the River Styx. The background is a neutral grey, again showing Death’s impartiality.
Scorpio is ruled by the planet Pluto. The esoteric and Greek mythological meaning of Pluto is the agent of death. This could mean death of desire, of our attachment to form, or the total death and surrender of the lower self as it merges and gives its life to the Soul.
Scorpio is the only Tropical Zodiac Sign of the 12 traditionally associated
with more than one symbolic image:
Scorpion (the reclusive, immature, selfish, self-destructive, toxic Scorpio)
Lizard (the reclusive, immature, detested Scorpio)
Wolf (the scary predator, immature and wrathful, loyal to emotion Scorpio)
Eagle (a predator and high rising flyer, viewing situations from a higher consciousness)
and the Phoenix (Ego death and North node rebirth)
Discernment teaches us to identify our weaknesses and rise within levels, the negative road of “Negitiva via.”
This is the Butterfly nebula. The butterfly has many symbolic meanings.
In Japan:
The personification of a person's soul; whether they be living, dying, or already dead.
In the native American culture:
Change and transformation
Moving through different life cycles
Renewal, rebirth
Elevation from earthly matters, tuning into emotional or spiritual
Can you guess where this nebula is located? The Butterfly Nebula is in Scorpius.
Tarot, astrology, mysticism, and Kabbal, which may still be practiced in twisted and corrupted means today, was never condemned until man did so, because of the use of it by minor powers. All things made by energies that challenge us and identify us, rise us from an insect to the phoenix, spiritual resurrection. These energies can teach and is the very combination that identifies who we are. It is the soul construct and connection to each other can help us move into a more spiritual life by aiding in finding the weaknesses in character.
Scorpio energy eliminates each level through internal reflection, “killing” off each level and rising from lower to high self. Merging timelines eliminates fears and one then becomes the symbol they are meant to be. Becoming a phoenix, as a Scorpio, expects one to dive deep, using Plutonian depths of which can be compared to the bounds of exoplanets, beyond and into the cosmos, on a cellular level, breathing the life of water, the ocean, down, down, down, within set it on fire and flying above the earth to become that potential. One must first simply choose it, and begin the process. The symbol of the eagle can also be seen on the Wheel of Fortune in Tarot. All four fixed signs are represented here, The man, the bull, the lion and the eagle. Becoming embodiment of change, transformation is fixed, there is no limit to the potential, and each temptation can be rejected, because the Scorpio know what this feels like. The negativa via requests us to ask “whatever God is not:” concentrating on what God is, and rejecting what God is not. The Universe, Ki, Spirit, Source, the Collective, God, Mother, Father, Love instead of hate, Truth over falsehoods or fallacies, Hope instead of despair or depression, faith instead of fear; irradicating worry and with love, finding concern. Rising above the ashes of the Dark night of the Soul, and becoming the beautiful transformed butterfly, phoenix, new life, you were meant to be: how the angels see you, with acceptance.
Reiki helps us to using the energy from the Universe to rise like a phoenix above negative, toxic emotions and find peace, altruism, and enlightenment.
