The Full Moon in Scorpio occurs on Friday, May 1st at 10:22 a.m. (PDT)/1:22 p.m. (EDT). There’s a lot going on! Full Moons tend to heighten our emotions, and in the intense, emotional sign of Scorpio, many feelings may be coming up, particularly in our relationships. Pay attention to your emotions, and take a deep breath before speaking in challenging situations. Sun in Taurus reminds us to tune in to our bodies, spend time in nature if at all possible, and practice self-care. Finding the balance between caring for ourselves, and with caring for others and shared resources, is the polarity of Taurus/Scorpio. Pluto in Aquarius is in square aspect to Moon and Sun. In the world, we are seeing a lot of things coming to light that need to be addressed. Pluto digs deep to the roots of any situation. In Aquarius, technological advances, communications networks, mass movements, are all up for review. Pluto is about to go retrograde (May 6) so we could be re-evaluating where technology is taking us, for better or worse. Uranus just re-entered Gemini, where it will be until 2033. Uranus, the liberator, can be disruptive, bringing about sudden change. However, it usually brings us to where we need to be. Gemini is about gathering information, and communication mostly in our day-to-day contacts. Venus is also in Gemini, so curiosity and conversations are highlighted. Take the time to listen closely to others to prevent misunderstandings. Be open to learning new things, new skills. As always, be true to yourself. You are beautiful just as you are.
