Scorpio and the Tarot

Scorpio does not fear this card. It has been here before, more than once.

Scorpio did not build this tower to last. It built it to find out what could not be destroyed.

The call has been sounding. Scorpio is deciding whether this time, it will rise.

Scorpio does not deny the chains. It is auditing whether they were ever necessary.

This is not the night that frightens Scorpio. This is the night Scorpio was trained for.

Scorpio does not leave without knowing exactly what it is leaving. That is what takes so long.

Scorpio sees the three spilled cups. It is also counting the two that are still standing.

Scorpio goes into the mountain not to hide but to see clearly without interference.

The waves move around him. He knows every one of them by name.

The cup is offered. Scorpio is deciding whether the offering is real.

This is not moderation. This is Scorpio learning the alchemy that makes extremes useful.
