Hello All, I’m new to the board and would love to hear advice from seasoned Astrologists and/or other double scorps.  I’m just coming out of this disastrously difficult Saturn Return in Virgo as my moon is in Virgo (I’ve had a lot of issues with my mother). I’ve suffered a couple of miscarriages, lost 2 jobs, was almost homeless, you name it; and all within this Saturn Return. Oh and a husband (with whom I’m still married to) who betrayed me a year before the Saturn return hit.  Previously my life had been basically stable and uneventful. However, I have learned a lot despite a lot of egotistical arm wrestling with the Task Master Saturn and now that I’m finally ready to deal with my upset inner child.  Has anyone ever realized that the intensity of their Scorpio sting (aimed at life in general) has actually stung themselves so badly that they may not be able to pick themselves up and dust themselves off as Scorps are so charactistically able to do?  If so, any pearls of wisdom?  Also, how in the heck does a double Scorpio ever learn to forgive??? I’d like to start but it’s real hard with so many intense emotions constantly rumbling inside.Leah
 

Welcome, poeticleah. :)

Thanks Elsa!

Has anyone ever realized that the intensity of their Scorpio sting (aimed at life in general) has actually stung themselves so badly that they may not be able to pick themselves up and dust themselves off.

There is no self worthy of dusting off.  You just let that part die and focus on the new shoots of yourself rising up from the wreckage.  Don't waste your time resurecting the old self that poisoned you in the first place.  Be reborn instead. 

(p.s. I don't mean actually kill yourself, I just mean metaphorically/psychologically look at times of crisis/meltdown as new beginnings.)

Great thread :-)

A Scorpio can definitely forgive. Scorpio is the Phoenix, it dies, Re-generates and comes back to life. There are many levels to a Scorpio. (Snake, Scorpion, eagle and Phoenix) Sometimes it takes alot of shit to trudge through to finally take that old skin off to be re-born. Look at those things that "fuck us over" as obstacles of strength, so we can attain our truth.
