As the Crone beckons us into the shadows at this dark time of the year, pay attention to your dreams and keep a journal and pen by the bed-otherwise you may miss a chance to take a deep inward journey. The Sun in Scorpio supports our soul's journey toward authenticity and inte-gration, and this time of year is in fact perfect for exploring any mysteries that call to you. Honor the complexity and insight of your inner shadow. Allow your shadow-self to teach you what secrets it may. This season of thinning veils provides an ideal opportunity to develop your instinctive nature. Start this by writing down your dreams and by
honoring your personal intuition and insight. Through the process of dreaming, our shadow helps initiate us into deep archetypal mysteries. Immediately upon awakening, write down all you can remember from your dream. This is important; avoid any usual patterns of behavior-such as rushing off to work or to the bathroom. Work to contain and control your inner mind by recording its images. Later, you will begin to work with the images symbolically to discover meaning.
