So let the journey begin. Let's talk about Scorpio. Now, remember in episode 10, we discussed the four. Overarching categories of the Astro power brand archetypes. Scorpio falls under our trailblazers who have a story to tell. So listen to that episode to get the low down. And so my curious cosmic explorers, it's time for another exhilarating, deep dive into the discipline of freedom. Today, we're diving into the depths of the Scorpio archetype. So grab your cloak of mystery. And a cup of potent herbal tea, because this is the magician, the Alchemist of the Zodiac. And we're about to unravel the intricate dance of deep transformation, life, death, and rebirth. Scorpio the cosmic outcomist of the Zodiac. It's a fixed water sign that holds the key. To the profound journey of deep transformation. Of life, death and rebirth in every shadowy corner of life and work. But be aware, dear listeners for Scorpio's path is not for the faint of heart. It's a journey from the depths of transformation to the delicate art of wielding power. Wisely our recklessly. First up Scorpio is fixed water. It's polarity is feminine. It's ruiner is Pluto in modern astrology. Our Mars and traditional astrology. It's element is water. It governs the reproductive organs, the genitals, the prostrate, the rectum, the Cola. Oh, the good stuff. The urethra, the pubic bone and the urinary tract. Yes. And of course it's scent because of those areas. It would be sexy and sensuous, just like a true scorpion. You might use the sense of Juniper Berry Rosewood. Petty grain, Codman spearmint for a little spike. Last wild orange. Lavender. And that subtle scent of geranium. Top notes with a soft hint of citrus, mid notes of spearmint and lavender to temper. The intense scorpion passion. But with tender, sexy, spicy herbacious Cardman Rosewood and Juniper Perry. And a little bass note of gentle geranium. Citrus sensual, softly, floral. With richer, Woody undertones. And nice little hint of spice. Scorpios crystals, our Topaz, our yellow sapphires. And of course its flowers would also be sensual and passionate. Think of beautiful lush red peonies. With an luxurious, full shape and bold, passionate red color. These flowers and body, both a sense of romance nodding to Scorpios. Deep sensitivity and power score. Those are famous for being really great lovers because they're adventurous and they're essential and sexy. And they're not afraid of the dApps. Of course their foods. Our oysters and chocolates. So coming back to the depths of transformation, which is what Scorpio is about. And the delicate art of wielding power. Wisely or recklessly. Skillfully expressed Scorpio and bodies, deep insight intuition, and the power to rise from the ashes. They create an atmosphere of intensity and authenticity. Where superficial reality has just no place. However, when unskillful Scorpio can become manipulative, secretive and power hungry. Leaving a trail of destruction in their wake. So a scorpion box on their architect attorney. And remember we're always going from apprenticeship. To mastery. So they navigate the path from deep transformation to power mastery. By embodying the yamas and the niyamas. They embrace the homage of a stale, which is non stealing by respecting boundaries and embracing authenticity, knowing. How to wield their power. And how to use their power for the good of others and for the greater good. So in their quest for power, they cultivate the Niamh of Tappas. And this is the heat, you know, when I talk about the Japa and the tappa. It's the self discipline. Channeling their intensity into focused action. Survival is Scorpio's main agenda. They are the transformational giant of the Zodiac. After all, they have four symbols. When most signs have only won. There's of course the scorpion with the sting in its tail. Symbolizing its ability to get what it wants. The snake sheds its skin. The dove, the symbol of peace. And the Eagle, which takes a macro view before it swoops in low. Completely focused. To catch its prey. Being the executives that they are they'll push forward, whatever the price. Anyone who gets in the way might deem this overbearing a self destructive. And there are moments when it will be. But Scorpio is true. Power is in their healing regenerative capabilities. So don't despair always look for the bigger picture. Because a Scorpio in their power will always be focusing on that macro. They're the greatest sign for that ability to just let go. And they're also, if they're not skillful, they're hanging on. So this macro to micro view is so, so important. And remember that. Emotions are energy in motion. We're supposed to feel everything. And then allow that feeling to pass. Now let's dive into the experience of a Scorpio led brand. Uh, Scorpio brand excels and creating experiences. The dev into the depths of transformation, God inclines through the process of shedding old skins. And embracing rebirth. So from life coaching focused on radical change. Too intense wellness retreats. Are. Creating fantasy and imagination. Scorpio brands at the cosmic guides of metamorphosis. Let's meet the archetype of characters of the Scorpio brand. So first up we have the magician. Who would slate of hand this brand possesses the magic to transform the ordinary into the extraordinary. Whether it's through personal development or spiritual growth. Live experiences are movies. You really will find a lot of artistry in this magician brand. They shine in industries like movie-making experiential design. Holistic healing or personal transformation. Always guiding clients on a journey of profound change. Great storytelling is happening here. Deepak Chopra is an embodiment of this Alchemist archetype. As is Disney who offers Cinderella, like stories that charm. The greatest of skeptics in us. It awakens our dream. So wakens are visionary nature. Next up, we have the innovator and this branch challenges, the status quo and leads the charge and pushing boundaries. They Excel in industries like technology or disruptive startups creating revolutionary change. That transforms industries. Brands like Tesla exemplify the innovator archetype. As does apple. The shaman. And this brand bridges, the material and spiritual worlds. God inclines through profound healing and growth. Thriving and industries like energy work. Our alternative therapies.

My creative arts, our conscious entrepreneurship. Leading movements that challenged the old and bringing forth the new. Steve jobs. Is a perfect example of the visionary archetype. Who not only put music in our pockets. But the world. With a smartphone. So now let's talk about the emotions, color sounds and tastes associated with Scorpio. Emotionally Scorpio, evokes feelings of intensity, depth, and transformation. They create an atmosphere of mystery and authenticity. We're profound change can take root. In terms of colors. Score for you is represented by deep and rich shades, like black midnight, blue, deep purples, and dark deep reds. Red. Symbolizes power transformation and sensuality. While black. Represents depth, mystery and inner strength, reflecting their enigmatic and powerful nature. As for sounds the haunting melodies of a cello. Or the deep resonance of a gong capture the essence of scorpions, intensity and depth. The smell of incense or the taste. Of a complex and flavorful dish evoke feelings of mystery and transformation. Which resonates deeply with Scorpio is transformative energy. The theme that's running through. All of this is the layers, you know, think of still waters run deep. And it's layers and layers and layers. It's at appear still. But there's no doubting the deep power. That a scorpion hoes. Recognizing Scorpio archetypes in your personal and professional relationships. Can be intriguing. They're the deep thinkers, the ones who dev into the hidden layers of existence. And challenge you to embrace change. They may be secretive. Yes. Their authenticity shines through their actions. This can be quite the opposite from Leo, who can be, you know, so full of theater. In the business where a Scorpio archetypes are perceived as intense, transformative and daring individuals. They will take risks. They attract clients seeking radical change. Those willing to dive into the depths of transformation to a March reborn. Ideal clients for Scorpio, brand, or individuals seeking to break free of old patterns, embrace change, and harness their inner power. So think of it. If you've got Scorpio on the. On the ascendant. Your descendant would be tourists. And what do tourists do? They can trust can get really stuck. They can get really stubborn. They're definitely material. Whereas Scorpio is absolutely mystical. So again, you've got the mundane, which is, you know, the Gardner archetype with tourists and here you have the magical with Scorpio. And on the opposite side of that. Would be a tourist who are not, um, skillfully expressing themselves. They look and they see, okay, I need this deep transformation that a Scorpio. Scorpio archetype. Can help me transform. Now, if you've got, Taurus on the ascendant. And you've got Scorpio on the descendant. The tourists leader that the tourist ascendant, the tourist leader. Can help the unskillful scorpion, who can get really stuck Doing those power plays, but not for the good of old who's deep in the mystery. Who's unskillfully expressing this magical, mystical way that can become manipulative, secretive and power hungry. Leaving a trail of destruction in their wake. with Their power playing. So the tarot card associated with Scorpio is the death card. Embodies the essence of Scorpio. Representing transformation, letting go and rebirth and remember that is what transformation is. It's really, allowing the cycles of the SATA. Nam off, which is infinity life, death, and rebirth. And this is the cycles of creation. Like every project, every relationship, every, everything will go through cycles of creation. We must always be in this space of. Cycles of creation. So it's the infinity life death rebirth. In mythology, the Phoenix embodies the essence of this score for your journey. The Phoenix rises from its own ashes. Symbolizing then to transforms of power of death and rebirth. Super important in terms of branding and identity. Your identity is constantly changing. You know, you'd be a daughter. We may be a mother. You'll be a wife. You may be an ex-wife. You may be a lawyer. You may then become a healer. We are constantly shifting identities. This is so important. And wherever we're really overly attached to identity, we're overly attached to our ego because our eco is always striving and never arriving. It's always going to be pushing us forward to the next thing. You'll never have quite the right relationship, quite the right job. Quite the right level of income, quite the right house. This is so important and Scorpio is. Primary in this. Process of transformation is the SATA NA ma. Is that infinity life, death rebirth. And at any point of our lives, something is dying. Something is being born. And something is stabilizing. Now, remember it's a fixed water sign. Still waters run deep. Let's come back to that. On the surface. We can be fooled by this mosque that does nothing now. Nothing going on. But then of course you dive deeper and there's this whole. Ecosystem. That is surviving in the depths. And this is why I'm so passionate about this process of the discipline of freedom, like what are your disciplines? Are you falling in love? With the disciplines that you have set off for yourself. To create the life that you love. Why do you create the legacy that you're proud to go into? Remember that the discipline is there to support you. It's not there to constrain you. It's not there to limit you. It's there to support the unfolding of the story. It's the foundations. It's a framework systems. Liberate discipline will absolutely liberate you. It's when we. Make our discipline, a dogma, rather than something that's supporting us. That's when we get into trouble. You know, when we think this is what we've always done. So, this is what we've always got to do. And we all know the definition of crazy is. I'm doing the same thing, expecting a different result. It's coffee is really teaching us about this, that on the surface, things can be still. We can. Live drama free. While we are internally. Changing. Holding the power. for the Process of transformation Holding that discipline holding that framework, holding that foundation. for the Process of Change. It's a super powerful sign. I absolutely love. I love Scorpio. You know, it's seen as one of the most feared sign, but it's just this wonderful. This is depth to it. There's an integrity to it. And there's a, um, Authenticity to us. That really, really supports us. It supports us for growth. The eighth house is the house of change is the house of death is the house of rebirth. Scorpio is the sign of beautiful transformation. Think of the four symbols. You've got the Phoenix. You've got this scorpion. You've got the dove and you've also got the, Equal. For really powerful symbols. So embrace your Scorpio. And check out which house your score views in, because that's where you've got this real power. To transform that aspect of your life.
