This Week’s Focus

Final week of Scorpio:

From the shadows, into the light
Issue 45 Volume 8 10 November 2025

Dear wonderful neighbour and fellow traveller;

With the Sun still illuminating the hidden corners of Scorpio, it’s easy to look at the world — and oneself — as good or bad. This happens because Scorpio forces us to confront the shadow mind. Unable to accept our own shadows, we attempt to be ‘good’ while holding others in judgement. In doing so, we have created our own Morality Manual.

Yet, wise people tell us that morality is of limited use; for society, perhaps, and only for those who live unconsciously and need rules. Morality changes from culture to culture, and from one era to another; it’s a construct of mind. If so, what are we to base our life upon?

During Inner Engineering with Sadhguru in 2014, he asked if we needed ‘commandments’ to not murder the person sitting next to us. We laughed, but the point was well taken: there is something else within us that is natural to our existence. When we tap into this all embracing truth, we need no code of morality. This truth is Love and is the fabric of all existence. When you come from the wellspring of Love within you, there is no need for morals. You are a living blessing for yourself and everyone around you.

Sadhguru in 2012 —

Your morality will not evolve you. If you begin to recognise life as life then you will see as life — you respond to life and you don’t need morals, you know how to be. You will never cross any lines because there are no lines, but at the same time you are simply incapable of doing anything harmful, that’s all. You are not holding back, you are not controlling because somebody told you, ‘This is the way you must be. You should not do that, you should not do this.” The very way you are there is no question of harm; it doesn’t exist in you. Effortlessly you can be good. Right now, with great difficulty you are being good, isn’t it? And if you’re too good, even in heaven they will reject you.

🤗

Warm thoughts and many blessings,

David 🙏🏻

Astrology Monday

Weekly Planning Forecast

Scorpio Sun…
23 October — 22 November


The Sun in Scorpio underscores the profound yearning to fully engage the spiritual journey. We all share this capacity, but it is up to each of us to take the first step. Scorpio people are intense, passionate, and characterised by a willingness to comb the unseen, within and without.

Scorpio relates to the awakening the soul experiences when the dormant spiritual energy within (kundalini) is awakened. Yet, the process needs guidance and for this reason one should never attempt to awaken this energy without the guidance of a master who has tread the path.

Sun in Aditya Amshuman…
Before the arrival of the Greeks, the ‘zodiac’ used in India was a 360 degree circle based upon the Sun’s movement (Adityas). The Aditya corresponding to Scorpio is
Amshuman which relates to the radiant one. This highlights the nature of Amshuman as the sign that relates to spiritual knowledge, ritual, and esoteric knowledge, especially as a means to navigate the world.😊


Important dates (2025 — 2026)
2025
SEP 1 thru 28 NOV: Saturn retrograde in Pisces; great time to review long range plans.

NOV 4 — 15 DEC: Mars in Sagittarius; hastens achievement of goals through one-pointed determination; great for undertaking spiritual purification processes. Outdoor activities a plus.
Now thru 2026 and beyond
Now thru JUL 26 2026: Rahu in Pisces: Loss of boundaries; excessive empathy; heightened creative expression and imagination.
Now thru JUN 30, 2026: Jupiter exalted in Cancer: Heart-centred approach brings rewards when emotions are tied to your good intention and not selfish gain.
SEP 1 2025 — FEB 13 2026: Saturn in Pisces: Tendency towards fear-based decisions; loss of boundaries; strong creative ideas
FEB 14 2026— APR 12 2028: Saturn in Aries: Weakening foundation; supports taking calculated risks. Prudence is fine; obsessively cautious denies needed change.

APR 25 2026 — Uranus re-enters Gemini and stays there until 2032. War? Revolution?

Hero’s Journey
The journey of the hero is about the courage to seek the depths; the image of creative rebirth; the eternal cycle of change within us; the uncanny discovery that the seeker is the mystery which the seeker seeks to know. ~ Joseph Campbell,

True gurus have reached the highest expression of human potential and help us find the way. There are many gurus, but I most often emphasise Sadhguru because he is arguably the most easily accessible guru (Youtube, public appearances, etc.) with whom I have personal experience. In 1999, he consecrated the Dhyanalinga, an energy form not seen for over 2000 years. Today he strives to touch the lives of as many seekers as possible… I have personally experienced his power to open inner pathways.
