What are you afraid might happen if you loosen your grip? And what could change if you trusted yourself to handle what comes next?

Scorpio season takes us beneath the surface, to the fears, desires, and protective patterns that shape how we love, communicate, spend, and show up in the world.

In this episode of As Above So Within, Mari and Jody explore Scorpio’s emotional depth, fierce loyalty, and capacity for transformation. We also look at its shadow: jealousy, suspicion, holding grudges, and the urge to control outcomes when being vulnerable feels risky.

We walk through Scorpio in all twelve houses, with rising-sign guidance, practical reflection questions, and an essential oil pairing for each house. Then we explore the astrology of Scorpio season 2026, including Venus and Mercury retrograde, the Taurus Full Moon, the Scorpio New Moon, and Mars meeting Jupiter in Leo.

What happens when two astrology lovers find themselves surrounded by more than 1,400 fellow astrologers? ✨

Libra season invites us to examine the balance between self and other. How do we remain connected to the people we love without abandoning our own needs?

In this episode, we explore the gifts and shadows of Libra, including relationships, harmony, beauty, compromise, people-pleasing, conflict avoidance and healthy boundaries. We also walk through every rising sign, sharing how Libra season may affect each house of your chart, along with practical ways to work with the energy and an essential oil for support.

We also break down the major astrology of the season, including the Aries Full Moon, Mars entering Leo, Mercury entering Scorpio, the Libra New Moon and Venus retrograde in Scorpio. This Venus retrograde may bring relationship patterns, money matters, questions of self-worth and unresolved emotions back into focus.

The question is not whether you should choose yourself or the relationship. It is whether you can honor yourself while creating healthier, more authentic relationships.
