Scorpio Full Moon - Deeper Truth
"Make your own kind of music
Even if nobody else sings along"
This Monday's Scorpio Full Moon (8:31 PM PDT 7° Scorpio/Taurus) establishes some potent Staying Power to the initiatives of the current lunar cycle that began back on April 11th (7:30 PM PDT 22° Aries) under the Aries New Moon. There are likely to be some uncomfortable revelations and exposure under the 'light' of this Full Moon. The involvement of Uranus, close to the Sun and opposing the Full Moon, stretches our awareness and encourages independent thought and action. While we may feel some extraordinary pressure, this is the kind of pressure that produces raw diamonds deep beneath the surface. We have begun to embrace a more deliberate, methodical, 'plodding' approach, to some degree or another, under the Taurus Sun and Mercury ruled by Venus, also in Taurus. Mars has adopted a protective stance in Cancer but we have not abandoned many of the initiatives formed under the Aries New Moon and the Mercury/Mars mutual reception. Rather, we are solidifying our positions. The Scorpio Full Moon encourages a deep dive into the intricacies of our personal truths and the result is to bring forward inspired, creative individual expressions of our unique perspective. This week's independent non-conformity is not as much about rebelling against an old order. We are less inclined to be against anything but instead, we find opportunities to express uninhibited, free-thinking, creative ideas to chart an entirely new course. Pluto turns retrograde on Tuesday, indicating a subtle shift towards making internal changes, instead of demanding change from the world around us. We may still find attitudes of defiance, self-righteousness, and aggression popping up that suggest that there is, indeed, a rebellious element to our determination. Nonetheless, this week's atmosphere encourages forward-looking creative, individual expression, stirred by Mercury's sextile to Neptune on Thursday. The Sun's conjunction with Uranus, perfecting on Friday, suggests detachment from our concern over approval. But detachment and non-conformity may sometimes foster disconnection — an undesirable byproduct of independence. We are likely to face at least some tendency to doubt ourselves or feel misunderstood. However, this week's insights and inspiration will not be put 'back into the bottle' — what we have seen can not be unseen.
Our awareness of a pressure change in the atmosphere on Sunday may cause some discomfort. However our response is most likely to have no response at all — 'keep calm and carry on'. Monday's Scorpio Full Moon is likely to bring some revelations and exposure that encourages a desire to dig for deep truth and understanding. Our awareness is stretched on Tuesday, either leaving us feeling at odds with those around us or expanding our perspective. The Moon's arrival in Sagittarius on Wednesday breaks a log jam, freeing a determined independence and inspiring non-conformist expression of our most deeply held truths. The shackles of the past fall away. The non-conformity may become a bit more aggressive on Thursday, possibly slipping back into defiant, rebelliousness. Self-indulgence and big risks are more than likely to set us back. Although we may face some internal doubts on Friday, our inspiration is locked in by the Sun-Uranus conjunction, encouraging us to stay true to our independent, self-expression. By Saturday, we find ways to lay down tangible markers that demonstrate our determination to follow through on our personal inspiration and vision.
