The Scorpio Path of the Bardo by Franco Santoro

From a note on Facebook :

“When confronted by our worst nightmares the choices are few: fight or flight. We hope to find the strength to stand against our fears, but sometimes, despite ourselves, we run. What if the nightmare gives chase? Where do we hide then?” (Heroes, Season 2. Episode 5)

The seasonal time of Scorpio can provide abundant blessings and opportunities for uncovering hidden secrets, especially on what we truly are beyond the identification with our conscious life. Here Scorpio often comes as the Grim Reaper, dissolving the quiet routine of ordinary existence and unleashing shadowy elements in our life. These elements tend to shed light upon the inevitable loss or date of expiry of many things we take for granted in life, including the end of life itself, death.

The awareness of death, which is what Scorpio tenaciously holds, is paradoxically the most pragmatic reality check and the foremost activator of the awareness of life. Death is “the central dream from which all illusions stem” (ACIM, M27:1.1), and Scorpio’s full immersion into its mystery, far from being a sinister life-denying development, is certainly a key stride for truly understanding and mastering life itself.

Scorpio possesses the dazzling capacity of amplifying what keeps us in darkness and hides the awareness of who we are at a multidimensional level, so that it can be released, allowing our real self to become transparent and ultimately shine throughout our life. Grievances, fears, despair and all kinds of unpleasant thoughts or emotions show what is not there and hide from us what we would see if we acknowledged our authentic luminous identity. In order to see, we need to lay grievances aside, practising release, or forgiveness, as the supreme act of letting go of our separated perception.

Scorpio teaches that just as darkness appears to reach its peak in life, light can shine it all away, if we firmly choose to connect with our multidimensional self and the web of life...
