The Full Moon in Scorpio brings anticipated cleansing, transformation and insight on an emotional level, and is supported by benevolent aspects.
The Moon in Scorpio feels at home, and prepares us for the deep plunge into the depths of our soul, in order to uncover aspects that need to be evaluated, purified and let go of. Because this is Scorpio and the Moon is a Supermoon, this is done in a very intense, direct and cathartic way. Drama, emotional outbursts and sudden realisations are common during this time.
Even though this intense internal transformation might be difficult to process, the rewards will be immense. Soul and emotional catharsis will allow us to move forward purified and ready, and to welcome change as a result of inner transformation. The Full Moon in Scorpio is a spring cleaning of the soul, with the purpose of freeing ourselves from emotional burdens. In order to find out in which life area you need to initiate catharsis, look for the house in your birth chart that the Full Moon is currently transiting.
The Moon is opposite the Sun in Taurus, so the Physical vs Spiritual, Matter vs Abstract and Body vs Soul polarities take centre stage. Spirituality is the main theme surrounding this powerful full Supermoon: the Moon in Scorpio calls for isolation and introspection, in order to process these internal changes.
This is supported and facilitated by a trine aspect to Neptune (Pisces). Neptune works his magic by rearranging our life circumstances and providing us with suitable environments to practise spiritual activities that will allow the soul to evolve. This allows us to adopt a spiritual way of evaluating, healing and understanding, not only our feelings, but also our surroundings. Feelings of compassion and empathy are heightened, especially towards loved ones, as well as creativity, imagination and psychic awareness. A sextile aspect to Mercury can bring misunderstandings, but above all a deep understanding of the healing power of words and communication.
Pluto, co-ruler of Scorpio, went retrograde in Capricorn on 25 April, a retrograde which will last until 4 October. Pluto is the master purger, initiating catharsis on a broader, collective level, and its effects are felt by society as a whole. This retrograde asks us to revaluate our idea of power and control, to let go of controlling, destructive and obsessive habits, and to break free from whatever obstructs spiritual evolution.
May the Moon shine her light into your depths, And from them a flower be revealed to the surface, For in the darkness we find insight, And realise, that shadows wouldn’t exist without light.
