In Episode 34 of Cycles of Time, titled "The Cauldron's Gate Welcomes Us to Scorpio Season," host Alison Dale delves into the astrological and cultural significance of Scorpio season, running from October 22-November 21.

The episode explores the transformative themes tied to Pluto and Mars, Scorpio's ruling planets, emphasizing the creative potential in both destruction and creation. Dale shares her unique Halloween plans as a “fungi witch” amidst the unusual October thunderstorms in Santa Fe and reflects on the powerful influences of the recent Aries full moon.

Listeners are guided through Scorpio's three totems: the scorpion, eagle (or serpent), and phoenix, each symbolizing different facets of transformation. Dale draws parallels between these symbols and her own Scorpio daughter’s experience. Additionally, she discusses themes of intimacy, honesty, and social equilibrium through Human Design's Gates 50 (The Gate of Values, aka the Cauldron) and 28 (The Gate of the Game Player).

Through personal anecdotes, astrological insights, and metaphysical reflections, this episode encourages deep inner reflection, connection with ancestral roots, and embracing life’s dualities. With the upcoming Samhain celebration and a Scorpio new moon, we invite you to fully engage with the cycles of decay and rebirth, reflecting on the intricate balance between light and dark in life.
