crimsoncurrentScorpio:16 A scientist using gravity waves to communicate with other universes. (Omega symbol) Manifesting/Experimental
(Degree Angel: ALADIAH (a-LA-dee-YAH) Looks Can Kill: Protection from the Evil Eye, Divine Grace)
This degree can form connections with other levels and realms of existence, and can create changes that are surprising, unlikely, or seemingly impossible. There is always a way to go beyond any limits, and the means to do so are close at hand. A tremendous resourcefulness is found here, for this degree is a gateway to the unexpected.
The Chandra symbol for this degree is “Charon ferries the dead across the river Styx.” The land of the dead across the river Styx is as radically different a place from the realm we live in as the other universes with which the scientist communicates. The question is, how to connect. If you're ready, and the time is right, connection is easy. But fear, and disbelief in the possibility of connecting are what often keep us from connecting. And so this degree is an ambassador who can help others to feel safe and secure as these transitions are made. It senses the existence of these other places, maybe senses that it has been to them before. It intuitively knows there are realms beyond death, and that no limits are absolute. How very uplifting and consoling this is. And often this degree carries out this function as ambassador without even being aware it is what he or she is doing.
Pleiadian Symbol: The volcano goddess laughing.
Azoth Symbol: In wind and rain a funerary tumulus is seen on the steppes.
Seed degree: Libra 8. A rare type of honey imbued with magical healing powers. (Omega Symbol). Love is the universal healing agent, and its effects open us up to new and ever-before-realized possibilities.
A vast junkyard. (Chandra Symbol). To clear away all the detritus and unnecessary elements from our relating allows us to enter into completely new and unexpected areas of connecting.
Fulfillment degree: Capricorn 19. In the night, someone peering into a dark window. (Omega Symbol). Reaching beyond the known into the unknown puts us in touch with uncertainties, but the also possibility of making intimate connection with beings or information which may be come our allies.
A half-eaten piece of bread. (Chandra Symbol). When we leave behind old realms to encounter new ones, we develop a heightened sense of what we need to nurture and sustain ourselves.
Oracle
In other worlds they heard his playing with gravity, which came to them as a kind of falling which called out to them like a voice echoing through a dark cave. They received his pattern of waves and quickly understood his code. He wished to speak with them, to know if they really existed. Yes, they replied, we are here, we hear you, and we know you think we are far away, but we say to you, we are here, inside you, one of countless universes that are born every moment out of even the slightest impulse of your imagination, a branch of that infinite tree whose roots and branches are one, and that grows simultaneously in every direction at once, not only the directions of which you can conceive, but infinite others beyond your conception. How may we help you?

Breakdown of the key symbols
The Scientist communicating with other universes (Omega Symbol)
Connecting with other realities: This powerful image speaks to the potential for breakthrough and communication across vast divides. The scientist, representing the rational and logical mind, is using the seemingly paradoxical method of gravity waves to connect, suggesting that profound knowledge can be accessed in unusual, experimental ways.
Manifesting the impossible: The phrase "Manifesting/Experimental" highlights this degree's capacity for bringing unlikely or seemingly impossible things into being. It suggests that if you can conceive of it, you can potentially manifest it, especially by exploring new, unconventional methods.
Charon ferries the dead across the river Styx (Chandra Symbol)
Navigating the unknown: Charon is the boatman of the underworld in Greek mythology, and his task is to ferry the souls of the dead to their final resting place. This symbolizes the ability of this degree to act as an ambassador or guide through difficult, frightening, and radical transitions, like moving from life to death.
Overcoming fear of change: The symbol suggests that the greatest obstacle to transformation is FEAR and disbelief. This degree's energy can help overcome this, intuitively sensing that other realms exist and that limitations are not absolute. It offers courage to face transitions and CHANGE.
Degree Angel: Aladiah
Divine grace in transformation: Aladiah is a degree angel associated with divine grace and protection. This suggests that the difficult transitions and deep transformations of this degree are not undertaken alone but are supported by a higher, compassionate force. This provides a sense of safety even when navigating challenging spiritual territory.
How the other symbols connect
Pleiadian Symbol: The volcano goddess laughing. This image symbolizes the powerful, raw, and sometimes disruptive energy of creation and change. Like a volcano, the energy can be explosive and transformative, but the "laughing" goddess suggests an acceptance and even joy in this powerful, life-altering process.
Azoth Symbol: In wind and rain a funerary tumulus is seen on the steppes. The tumulus, or burial mound, represents a resting place for the ancestors. It signifies a profound connection to the past and a deep honoring of what has come before. The wind and rain suggest that despite the passage of time, these roots remain present and potent, grounding the individual during periods of major change.
Seed and Fulfillment Degrees:
Seed degree (Libra 8): The magical honey represents love as a healing agent that opens us to new possibilities. This "seeds" the Scorpio 16 experience by showing that the journey into the unknown is driven by a desire for healing and profound connection. The "vast junkyard" suggests clearing away old emotional debris is necessary to prepare for this new connection.
Fulfillment degree (Capricorn 19): Peering into a dark window represents facing uncertainties and the possibility of intimate connection with what is hidden. The "half-eaten piece of bread" symbolizes developing a heightened sense of what truly sustains and nurtures you as you navigate these new realms.
The Oracle's message
The oracle weaves these themes together into a story. The scientist's gravity waves are a metaphor for the individual's deepest impulses and imagination. Other universes hear this "playing" and respond, revealing that they are not far away but "inside you". This emphasizes that true change and cosmic connection begin internally, and the universe responds to the intentions and desires of the individual soul. The "infinite tree" that grows in every direction represents the boundless potential and interconnectedness of all things.

Scorpio 16° ("A girl's face breaking into a smile") embodies contagious cheer as a transformative force in collective energy—happiness radiates to uplift shared moods, while grumpiness taints them. Core theme: A simple, innocent smile pierces through Scorpio's intense seriousness, moodiness, or "dark funk," revealing humor in overly profound situations and fostering emotional lightness.
Dynamic Influence: Like emojis (:>)) or ironic "LOL"s, it highlights how subtle expressions bend perceptions—concave (absorbing negativity) to convex (projecting joy)—preventing misreads and sparking self-aware relief (e.g., grumpiness about LOL becomes funny, eliciting a genuine smile).
Fixed Sign Motif (16°): Recurring theme of subtle influence via curved/disc-like forms, evoking perspective shifts: Leo's post-storm sunshine (renewal), Aquarius's executive focus (structured optimism), Taurus's futile mystic revelation (humor in earnestness).
Practical Wisdom: Embrace cheerfulness to "color the air" positively; it's Scorpio's tool for alchemical levity amid depth, turning snits into smiles and isolation into connection.

Scorpio 16° ("A girl's face breaking into a smile") evokes infectious joy as a bridge through emotional intensity, choosing happiness to draw connections and lighten collective moods.Sabian Symbol (Lynda Hill's Interpretation): This symbol highlights the power (or need) to "put on a happy face," radiating warmth to break the ice and invite closeness—even when life's depths make smiling challenging. It's an act of inner choice: expressing joy to shift atmospheres, as true smiles are contagious, fostering eye contact and relational openness. Keywords: Drawing others, willingness to relate, things that make one happy, breaking the ice, smiling or frowning, facial expressions, facial feedback, eye contact, dental hygiene.
Negatives/Shadow (Hill): False happiness to satisfy others' needs, lack of sincerity, breaking up (relationships or facades), rigidity of responses, grumpy attitudes, refusal to communicate, poker faces, frowns—potentially masking Scorpio's deeper vulnerabilities with insincere cheer.
Degree Theory (Nikola Stojanović): 16° carries Cancer (watery, nurturing) energy—emphasizing emotional intelligence, family bonds, patriotism, and protective instincts, with a focus on building stable legacies through heartfelt expression.
At "level 2" of Cancer degrees, it suggests early emotional awareness, closeness to select family members, and a clear vision of ideal home life, often appreciating one's roots more after witnessing others' dysfunctions; slightly more outgoing than lower Cancer degrees, with outgoing vibes emerging from comfort zones.Negatives: Imperfect family dynamics pushing premature emotional exposure, over-sensitivity leading to withdrawal, clinginess to "shell" of familiarity, or unbalanced patriotism turning insular—challenges in fully emerging from relational shells without feeling exposed.
