It’s Scorpio season, a time when the energies of transformation and introspection are swirling all about. If you’ve been feeling the pull to dive deeper into your inner world, you’re not alone. As we enter the darker half of the year, Scorpio invites us to shed the layers that no longer serve us and connect with our true, unbound selves. But here’s the thing: to fully embrace this transformative energy, we need to start with one of the most powerful energy centers in our body—our sacral chakra.
The sacral chakra is the center of passion, creativity, and pleasure. But it can also be the space where many of us, particularly women, feel blocked or bound by societal expectations. I call this the “sacral curse.” It’s that nagging feeling that prioritizing our own joy, pleasure, and desires is somehow frivolous or “too much.” We’re taught to set our own needs aside, to keep our passion under wraps, and to hold back our creativity to fit the mold. Scorpio season, however, challenges us to break free from this curse. Let’s talk about how.
The Sacral Chakra & The Waters of Scorpio
The sacral chakra, located just below your navel, is aligned with the element of water—the same element that Scorpio rules. Like water, this chakra is about flow, movement, and deep emotional connection. Scorpio season, which falls in the heart of autumn, brings the themes of release and renewal, much like the shedding of leaves from the trees. This energy is calling us to let go of outdated narratives about who we “should” be and instead embrace who we truly are.
In this season of transformation, consider your sacral chakra as a reservoir of stories: the stories you tell yourself about joy, pleasure, creativity, and desire. To truly receive the abundance you crave, you must first release the energetic baggage stored here. Scorpio’s influence encourages us to dive deep and ask: What am I holding onto that keeps me from fully experiencing my power and passion?
Tapping into the Power of the Sacral Chakra
Let’s lean into the transformative power of Scorpio season with a ritual designed to unlock and unleash your sacral chakra using journal prompts, a tarot spread, and a special sacral chakra tea recipe to guide your exploration.
Step 1: Journal Prompts to Explore Your Sacral Chakra During Scorpio Season
Journaling can be a powerful tool to explore the stories held in your sacral chakra. Set aside some quiet time, light a candle, and consider these prompts:
What passions and desires have I been pushing aside or ignoring? This is your invitation to dive into what truly lights you up—without judgment or limitation.
Where have I been feeling guilty about prioritizing my own pleasure and joy? Reflect on the “sacral curse” and any lingering beliefs that tell you it’s selfish to put yourself first.
How can I embrace my creative energy in new ways? Scorpio season is a time to transform. Explore how you might begin to channel your inner creativity and passion in a way that aligns with your truest self.
Step 2: A Sacral Chakra Tarot Spread for Power, Passion, Purpose, and Promise
Scorpio season encourages us to connect with our deepest emotions and desires, and there’s no better tool to guide this inner exploration than the tarot. This spread will help you explore the energy within your sacral chakra and reveal insights for moving forward with passion and purpose.
Card 1: Power – What personal power am I ready to reclaim?
Card 2: Passion – What passion within me is ready to be reignited?
Card 3: Purpose – How can I embrace my purpose with full authenticity?
Card 4: Promise – What promise can I make to myself to stay true to my path?
Take your time with each card and notice what resonates. You might uncover a hidden passion or a long-lost dream that’s waiting to come alive.
Step 3: Create a Sacral Chakra Tea Infused with Water & Fire
Since the sacral chakra resonates with water, we can further balance it by adding a touch of fire energy—Scorpio’s transformative influence. Here’s a tea recipe that’s as nourishing as it is symbolic, blending the flowing nature of water with the warming qualities of fire.
Ingredients
1 tsp cinnamon (for warmth and fire)
1 slice of fresh ginger (for passion and flow)
1 tsp honey (for sweetness and self-love)
Optional: a small piece of carnelian or red jasper to sit next to your cup (to infuse with fiery energy)
Directions
Bring a cup of water to a gentle boil.
Add the cinnamon and ginger, and let steep for 5–7 minutes.
Pour into a cup and stir in honey.
Before drinking, place the crystal near the cup to charge the tea with intention. Sip slowly and savor each moment, feeling the warming fire and soothing water elements harmonize within you.
Embrace Your Unbound, Unashamed Self
In Scorpio season, we’re invited to break free from the ties that bind us and embrace the power, passion, and purpose of our unashamed, unbound selves. When we release the “sacral curse,” we give ourselves permission to be fully alive, to feel deeply, and to pursue our passions without holding back.
Let go of what’s no longer yours to carry, and step boldly into your power as you journey through the dark, transformative waters of Scorpio.
Your sacral chakra holds your most potent stories—embrace them, transform them, and let them guide you toward a life of unapologetic joy and purpose.
