Dark Moon in Scorpio - 2015

Tonight my group Gaia's Circle is gathering to observe the Dark Moon.  Tonight it is in the sign of Scorpio, transitioning over to Sagittarius.

Scorpio is a water sign, and for this ritual we are diving deep deep deep, deep into our depths.  Here in the darkness of the still, cold and silent waters, on this dark and moonless night, we are confronted with our own darkness, our own stillness, our own inner cold and chill. 

What will we find in the depths of our being?  Will we hear the temptation call of the Siren?  Will we answer?
