Scorpio – The Power of Regeneration

by Debbie Peluso

As Fall comfortably sets in around us, we see transformation taking place all around us. The beautifully colored leaves softly begin to fall stripping the trees naked. The seasonal plants we planted die, and animals begin to scurry about collecting food for their survival during the cold months. Yes, death surrounds us, but it is all in preparation for rebirth. The trees will redress themselves, and the plants will bloom again.

Looking at this process, one can grasp the concept that every second in our lives is a death and rebirth. Time, words spoken, glimpses of our loved ones, even the cells within our own bodies die to then regenerate. One breath dies; another is born. In our yoga postures, we surrender/die to one pose to then flow into the next. One cannot exist without the other. Without death, life would grow old and stale. It would lose its charm, its mystery, its joy. Death of anything brings new opportunities to press the refresh button and start again.

If your job isn’t fulfilling and there’s no enthusiasm, you feel a loss of creativity and productivity. Bringing death to that job brings birth to a new opportunity! If leaves didn’t die, we wouldn’t have compost. If we didn’t bring death to certain chapters in our lives, new ones wouldn’t be written. Life and death are synonymous. They are the equation and the formula for regenerating ourselves, our lives, and our attitudes.

It serves as a reminder for us to embrace every moment, every touch, every word, every glance, and every action we live with great gratitude and appreciation, and who better to teach us appreciation for the cycle of life than the mysterious and intense energy of Scorpio. One need just to look into the eyes of a person born in this sign and the emotional depth of life’s mysteries unravel! Deeply intense, passionate, and extremely driven, the energy of Scorpio asks us to go into the depths of our souls to reflect and die to the part of ourselves that needs healing and regeneration.
