SCORPION MEDICINE
Scorpion Medicine the sting of Transformation. Scorpions are people too, and that’s no tail.
When Scorpion Medicine crosses your path, it will catch your attention. Might even creep you out a little. The evolutionary history of scorpions goes back to the Silurian era 430 million years ago. Making them one of the oldest life forms here on Earth. They have adapted to a wide range of environmental conditions and can be found on all continents except Antarctica. Sow, if you’re creep-ed out by Scorpion Medicine move to Antarctica.
Scorpions number about 1750 described species. Scorpions are predatory arachnids of the order Scorpiones. They have eight legs, like spider. Easily recognized by the pair of grasping pincers, and narrow segmented tail, often carried in a forward curve over the back, ending with a venomous stinger.
Scorpions are generally nocturnal animals spending the day under rocks, in crevices, then come out of the darkness to hunt. Scorpions are carnivorous animals, paralyze their prey using the venomous stinger on the end of their tail, sow scorpion can eat their prey without trouble.
Scorpion stings are painful most are usually harmless to humans. For stings from species found in North America, no treatment is normally needed for healthy adults, although medical care should be sought for children, and for the elderly. More harmful stings from species found in South America, Africa, and western Asia may require medical attention.
Scorpion History
Scorpions are arachnids, not insects, the scorpion is most closely related to spiders and ticks. Scorpions are often referred to as ancient animals as scorpions have been on Earth for over 400 million years, meaning that scorpions existed on Earth before the dinosaurs arrived.
The taxonomy of Scorpion has undergone changes and is likely to change further, as genetic studies are bringing forth new information. There are 13 families recognized to date. Only about 25 of these species are known to have venom capable of killing a human being.
Sound familiar? Thirteen families with 25 species known to have venom capable of killing a human being? Hey, I’m not pointing fingers here. However, I will name, names below.
As stated, there are thirteen families, coincidence maybe, and about 1,750 described species and subspecies of scorpions. In addition, there are 111 described taxa of extinct scorpions. They have been around for a while. See Spider Medicine for more Clarity.

Scorpion Facts
The body of a scorpion is divided into two parts: The head (cephalothorax) and the abdomen (opisthosoma), which is subdivided into a broad anterior with a narrow tail like postabdomen.
Most scorpions reproduce sexually, most species have male and female individuals. The courtship starts with the male grasping the female’s pedipalps with his own. Then the pair perform a “Dance” called the “promenade à deux“. In this “Dance”, once they have satisfied the other that they are of opposite sex and of the correct species, mating can commence.
Well that’s enough of their personal Business. On to the good stuff of Scorpion Medicine.
Scorpion Medicine
Working in the backyard moving rock for a planter. I decided to sit down on a wooden bench overlooking the lake. For some Reason I decided to move the bench for a better view. Took the top off, and moved one leg over to the new position. Pulled the heavy top over next to the leg. Went back to grab the last leg, That’s when Scorpion Medicine crossed my path. As I reached down to pick up the leg, I felt something cold on my palm, not thinking, I lifted the leg and BANG!!!!!!!. The Business end of Scorpion Medicine let me know. Scorpion Medicine brings this Message. DON”T MESS WITH ME.
Scorpion People
Remember, Scorpion promises Transformation. Whether the transformation is calm or chaotic depends on how the energies are used. Are we channeling our passions correctly? Are we allowing our passions to override our common sense? Do we need to balance our relationships with more solitariness? Are we becoming too solitary? Do we need to merge our physical passions with our spiritual passions? Are we ignoring our psychic perceptions only to be stung? Answering these Questions personally will help one channel these energies.
Emotions usually govern our first reactions to our experiences in life. Although instinctive emotions generate the strongest motivations for our behavior. Scorpion people are not prone to wearing their heart on their sleeve,(unlike those Cancerians and Pisceans). They need to dominate their relationships and rarely display their true feelings, holding back something of self, even during the most open and communicative moments. Although not intentionally wanting to be mysterious, they manage to appear enigmatic anyway. They hate being crossed or manipulated, and may react to such treatment with sarcasm, spitefulness, and vengeance .
Their fiery energy of Mars shines out with their enthusiasm, where it attracts and inspires others. The intensity can be overwhelming, yet subtle, their considerable energy is not aroused, or employed just to have something to do.
Unlike Aries, Scorpio is not openly combative, unless it becomes necessary. Their privacy is tightly protected, sow others get to know them only up to a point. They may not show any sign of inner struggle, however when they are after something, (or someone), their determination is fierce.
Should Scorpions not be favored in the outcome, they are neither a willing nor a gracious loser. Nevertheless, they are not arrogant, being generally interested in others, and what they have to say, although they often exhibit a self-sufficiency which implies there isn’t much they don’t already know.
Scorpions Past
Scorpion Medicine is sometimes referred to as the serpent from the Garden of Eden. So it’s possible the Snake became the fall guy to divert attention away for the real culprit. Which brings in the treachery aspect of the Scorpion.
In Egypt Scorpion was the symbol of darkness, for it brought with it the waning strength of the sun. In Greek mythology, it was the monster that caused Apollo’s horses to run wild while in the hands of Phaethon. This is often a caution for those who the scorpion is a messenger. Unless we control our passions and desires thus direct their energies appropriately, the Transformations will occur in the midst of chaos.
The ancient Sumerians believed that Scorpion Men were guardians of the Gateway of the sun, the Mountains of the East, and the Twin Gates. This creature was associated with various aspects of Istar, (as Ishara Tamtim, the scorpion-tailed Mother), Nanna, and the Phrygian Sabazius. Myth tells how the hero Gilgamesh had to make his way through the Scorpion Men to the house of the Scorpion Goddess, Siduri Sabitu. The Scorpion King depicts this story.
Astrological myths everywhere place Aquarius the Water drawer at the winter solstice, Taurus the Bull at the spring equinox, Leo the Lion at the summer solstice, and Scorpio at the autumnal equinox. Therefore it was said in Egypt, that the Scorpion killed Horus, the sun, sending him to his midwinter death and resurrection as his Mother Isis gave him rebirth. Hence Pharaoh’s daughter apparently played the part of the Water drawer or divine midwife on the banks of the Nile, as shown by the myth of Moses.
The Christ of the bible states, He replied, “As you enter the city, a man carrying a jar of water will meet you. Follow him to the house that he enters“.
Yet it’s known in those days, the women carried the water pitcher. The symbolism in this parable should not be lost. For the meaning becomes clear for those with eyes to SEE.
In astrology the sign of Scorpio is represented by several animals. The scorpion, the eagle, and the phoenix. The Scorpio zodiac sign has been associated with transformation and rising to new heights. Known for its secretiveness and passions. It is a sign of mystery, long associated with sex, death, and rebirth. Those of this sign have great strength and an ability to inspire. They can also misuse their psychic and sexual energies.
Spirits of the four points of the year were at some time called Sons of Horus, placed as small images in the four corners of a pharaoh’s tomb. As man, bull, lion, and scorpion, (or serpent?). They were adopted by Christianity and converted into the four totems of the evangelists the four angels of the Apocalypse.
The constellation of the Scorpion is the link between the cultures of central America and those of the ancient east, possibly Mesopotamia, whose ziggurat were also similar to the Mexican pyramids. Scorpio was the same in Babylonia, India, and Greece, and the Maya of Yucatan identified the same constellation “Scorpion stars”.
With Scorpion Medicine, You are being asked to remove, cut out those things in your life that no longer serve you. Evaluate your surroundings with a critical eye to releasing old baggage, letting go of objects that are cluttering up your home. Purging the clinging energy of those that are co-dependent on you. Re-establish your boundaries, make clear decisions about which direction your next few months will take then move on. Focus on minimizing the enabling of others not to move forward. As well as taking your own steps towards death and rebirth.
Scorpio/Scorpion is the 8th sign of the zodiac, which the sun enters about 24 October. Orion had boasted that he could kill any animal the earth produced. A scorpion was sent to punish his vanity, it stung Orion to death. Jupiter later raised the scorpion to heaven.
Scorpio people are very strong, and have the ability to inspire others. They are passionate in love affairs, known as a good lover. They have very strong sexual needs and often enjoy periods of solitariness between intense and passionate relationships. They have the gift of Psychometrics and tend to use their sense of touch enjoying textures in foods and Arts.
They are protective of their solitude, thus will be very defensive of their children occasionally protecting them when they need to face consequences in order to learn and grow. However they are unafraid of allowing them self to be vulnerable with others. They have a way with words that often sting in their remarks. Their overall charisma will carry them through many conflicts.

Solitariness
Strategy
Vulnerability
Another unusual characteristic of the Scorpion is that they have a natural florescence and they will all glow under ultra-violet light. This is how most scientists are able to find them during their normal time of activity in the dark.

The sight of a glowing Scorpion is an amazing thing to behold it is fascinating and mysterious.
Healing

Thus Achieving a balance between the qualities of SCORPIO and TAURUS, thereby transforming negative habit patterns, will assist in maintaining good health.
In Truth, we all have a little Scorpion in us, as humans we contain all the Zodiac signs within our Consciousness. Some of these Energies are more focus than others. Thus our birth sign offers a path to the discovery of self in Totality.
Scorpion Medicine is not a medicine that should be trifled with. Watch where you place your hands. As the sting of the Scorpion can be a painful reminder of who’s in charge. Take it from one who knows the sting of the Scorpion. Of course you are welcome to learn the hard way.

THE NUMBER ELEVEN
The Number Eleven Gateway to the Devine Energy of Spirit
Are you seeing The Number Eleven everywhere? You are not alone! For this phenomenon is happening all over the world. For those having the vision of The Number Eleven are in for quite a ride, it is not a coincidence, it’s more like a co-incidence.
For this Doowan, 11:11 is a gateway to the inner workings of spirit. Where one stands between worlds in anticipation of the next step. Like the Pillars of Hercules we stand before a new world, with the strength and courage of Hercules we enter.
A Word of Warning: There is a cosmic law which states ones reality must remain congruent with ones beliefs. If one choose to maintain their old beliefs, they cannot be shown anything that would violate them. However, once one chooses to sheds their old beliefs and embrace new ones, the proof originally sought will be forthcoming.
Thus, if you choose to step into the power of the Number Eleven, ones life may never be the same, as the power of Eleven will now be yours.
Read on, if you dare to invoke the power of The Number Eleven.
When one enters through the 11:11 gateway, many of the Universal synchronizations start to connect with the number Eleven, or at the digital time 11:11, especially in the beginning. At this point one can regard the Elevens as cosmic sign posts to go within, therefore follow ones intuition to ones destiny.
All numbers stand for a quantity. Through the symbolization of numbers they can also signify qualities. This symbolization of numbers is called numerology. The Number Eleven is significant as it describes the original energy that it expresses.
The Symbolic Meaning of The Number Eleven.
A very basic and primary understanding of the Number One is necessary, sow that of new beginnings and purity may manifest in one. When we see this double-digit as with (11) Eleven,, the attributes of one doubles in strength.
The spiritual meaning of The Number Eleven is quite diverse. The Number Eleven is thought of as a “master” number because it is a double-digit of the same number. When this occurs ,, the vibrational frequency of the prime number doubles in power.
The Number Eleven is not an ordinary number. It symbolizes Devine Energy, (the e represents consciousness), a very uncommon energy as is 22, 33, 9, 7 & 8. The Number Eleven is one of the most high-set numbers. Eleven is related to other dimensions. It is a gateway to wondrous worlds.
The Number Eleven being a “Master Number,” The word “Master” means that it can overcome incredible hardships. The vision of 11:11 is an opportunity to hear ones Soul more clearly than ever before. SEEing 11:11, is a high-five from the universe. You are being acknowledged and validated for being in alignment with your Soul. At this moment Know that you are standing at the portal of worlds beyond your wildest Dreams.
You are being given the choice to get closer to your Spirit in this moment of 11:11. The veil of illusion has been temporarily lifted, you are given an opportunity to penetrate into your Soul’s Truth, and the Truth of Creation.
11:11 is the universe’s way of urging us to pay attention to our heart, our soul intuition. It serves as a wake-up call sow that opportunities are not missed. Seeing this particular sequence means that the universe is attempting to open our eyes, thus calling our attention to the synchronicities around us. When one sees 11:11 stop for a moment, as Creation is signaling one to follow the path with heart.
The appearance of 11:11 is always a beneficial act of Divine Intervention. Rejoice in the moment as You have been chosen, because you are ready, to step into a Quantum Reality.
Although many are called, few are chosen. 11:11 signals the time is right to take a good look around to SEE what is real, and what is illusory. It’s time to pierce the veil of the illusion which keeps one bound to an illusory world. To ascend from ones duality into Oneness. To lead the way for others into a new way of living, in unconditional Love. The 11:11 is the gateway between duality and Oneness. It is our pathway into the Unknown.
Meanings of The Number Eleven
Vision
Balance
Invention
Refinement
Congruency
Fulfillment
Higher Ideals
The Number Eleven carries a vibrational frequency of balance. It represents male and female equality. It contains both sun energy and moon energy simultaneously holding them both apart in perspective separateness. Perfect balance in the mirror mirror of self-reflection.
Those who inner-stand the spiritual meaning of The Number Eleven are quite sensitive to vibrational frequencies matching the attributes above. Elevens appearing on a consistent bases is indicative of a reflective, thoughtful and intuitive being. Seeing the bigger picture through revelations and intuition. Master Number Eleven draws on the cosmic forces for inspiration and enlightenment, through pronounced intuitive and psychic abilities.
Since The Number Eleven symbolizes enlightenment, Eleven colors everything with drama, a visionary outlook, artistic sensitivity and ‘twinkling‘ qualities. The Number Eleven energy is not for practical long-term use. However, its contribution is a unique perspective and philosophy which instills a new consciousness attuned to creation. The Number Elevens energy is highly strung, intense, polarized (off and on) and subtle.
In ones quest to find a balance between the rational and the irrationality, or Ying and Yang, one will often pursue the most eclectic of religions and cultures. Where Black and White are the colors of Eleven, signifying truth, latent and active, hidden and revealed. Violet also belongs to Eleven and signifies the illumination which the Spirit gains through sorrow on one hand and joy on the other. Where one develops personal power through loving, selfless service.
Thus when one feels ready, the next step is to see the truth about reality, a big step indeed… One must intend this consciously, or it will not happen. 11:11 is the sign the time is right. Say to yourself, I SEE that my old model of reality is unsustainable. I now ask, to SEE reality as it truly is. Let my beliefs accurately reflect the true nature of reality.
This will likely be a disturbing time. One may start to feel disconnected and confused. The best thing one can do is relax and flow with it. This isn’t a step to be taken lightly. The truth about reality is very different from what’s taught in mainstream society. It can be very unsettling to see old notions of reality fade away, even when you know they’re an illusion.
Most would rather cling to the familiar than see their lives turned inside-out, upside down, and backwards from the illusional normal by such an immense shift in their beliefs. Even when the beliefs no longer serve the one believing.
Unfortunately, this journey must be taken alone. It’s a decision one must make of their own free will. No one can force you into it. The Number Eleven may crack open the door, however one must willingly choose to step through it.
There is no point in asking for proof of what lies through the 11:11 gateway because proof-seeking is an artifact of a subjective belief system. This choice one must make freely. Thus proof cannot be provided, because that would influence your choice. If one demands proof, they will be shown something inconclusive every time.
As long as one lingers in the doorway, they will never step into the truth that lies beyond. Pushing or pulling would violate ones freedom to choose their path, and that’s a huge cosmic no-no.
Therefore one may choose to take the step left into the past of 11:10 or into the future of 11:12. 11:11 is the NOW one must decide. The next step is yours.
The Number Eleven is the sign post that marks ones destiny.
