Full Moon in Scorpio 5.12.25
From the Earth miracles burst forth. We can only wonder about the mastery that creates beauty while pushing LIFE through every possible opening. This Full Moon is one of these possible openings through which rebirth can occur, where something of you, of us, something perhaps that has been hidden or kept secret (Scorpio is secretive, usually for protection) births itself anew. Where the Full Moon axis of 22 degrees Taurus-22 degrees Scorpio falls in your chart will show where you feel the intention of bringing yourself to the next level of your own personal evolution, your next steps on your journey, you as a very important participant in the Whole. Your own secrets revealed (maybe even just to yourself!) to allow for the separation from what was to what is yet to be.
Needless to say, birth isn’t always easy. In fact, it’s pretty momentous for both baby and mother. Why would you expect your own re-birthing experiences to be any less momentous? You might be the type who relishes the challenge and excitement of the New. Or you may like things as they are and could do without unnecessary upheaval. And probably you’re somewhere in between. You may not be able to control circumstances (that’s a GIVEN) but you can absolutely control your responses to them.
Past trauma may surface pretty strongly at this Full Moon, feelings of when you were not in control (and you weren’t). Let the feelings come out. They are up be released. The more you release past trauma in your nervous system, the more relaxed and able you are to create genius solutions to seemingly impossible situations. Freeing your system of past events and the feelings you created in yourself in response to those behaviors is the key to self-empowerment and the credo of the Pluto in Aquarius generation now, and for the next 20 years, being birthed – hands on in real time and figuratively speaking.
Uranus at 26 degrees Taurus is a few degrees away from the Sun, opposing the Moon at this Full Moon and that can only mean one thing – walk barefoot on the earth as much as you can! Ground yourself with all your grounding tools. If you like to follow guided meditations John has a beautiful grounding meditation on my site, called the Green Pearl Healing Meditation. I also created a Zuul to Zen meditation that will help you settle into calm in moments. Uranus so close to this lunation is disruptive, to say the least, and innovative beyond what you might have imagined, destabilizing for sure. Ground. Ground. Ground.
And that’s not even the big impact. The big impact occurs when Uranus and the Sun conjoin at 27 degrees Taurus on May 18. The Full Moon will help you to see, with your intuitive knowing, what is to be ushered in as NEW, both in your personal world and in the collective, and what needs to be peeled away to be transmuted.
Mars at 11 degrees Leo makes a square to the Full Moon – it’s an 11degree orb but it feels important. The usual orb of influence is 10 degrees so eleven, I’m going with it. Mars is active, assertive, and can be aggressive. Mars wants action. What is exposed at the Full Moon requires action to resolve. Action can look like many things. Positive action to resolve conflicts is a good place to focus your attention these volatile days, ripe with possibility.
Mercury at 3 degrees Taurus squares Pluto at 3 degrees Aquarius. Watch for rigid, fear-based thinking as new ideas are presented to you. Trust in beauty and the natural abundance that Life offers up to you. Walk outside as you can. Let Nature embrace you. soothe you, and revitalize you from the inside out.

Uranus conjoins the Sun at this Full Moon in Scorpio – ANYTHING can happen!
