Full Moon in Scorpio : Cultivating Our New Foundations and Releasing the Old


On Saturday May 18th 2019 (at 2:11 PM PST) we will have a Full Moon in Scorpio. We are out of the last two Moon cycles which dealt heavily with relationships and heralded many turning points. Now with what we've learned from those phases it's time for some major release. Since the New Moon in Taurus you may have been planting new seeds and watching them grow, but with the beginning of certain things we must shed some old things. 

This Full Moon is taking place on the Scorpio/Taurus axis. Taurus is about building new foundations and is a stable, yet fertile sign. Scorpio is about transformation and ending the old. Pluto is the planet that rules Scorpio and it's been a big player in the astrology lately. We've really been confronting things coming up from the depths of our own being and really being shown what needs to end, be transformed or released. Now is the time! 

Mercury is traveling close to the Sun during the Full Moon. I feel like it's bringing us information and insight we need during this time of culmination and release. Since it's traveling near the Sun in Taurus I feel like we may be getting insight around the new things we've been creating. Seeing in a practical way how to keep growing seeds we've planted. 

Venus and Uranus will basically be conjunct in Taurus around the Full Moon as well. Change is definitely in the air. There could be an element of the unexpected. Particularly around relationships. There's been tremendous changes and shifts around relationships and this time is no different. Whatever happens could be unexpected, but provide necessary shakeups. 

Neptune in Pisces is trine the North Node in Cancer during the Full Moon. This means we need to trust the universe, the flow and most of all our feelings. Our feelings and emotions need to be our guides for what to release and what to fertilize. This can be a very emotional time. Not just with this watery aspect, but because a Full Moon in Scorpio in general can be a time of a lot of emotional release. Purging feelings from the depths. Also, Mars just moved into the water sign of Cancer. We may be very emotionally driven at this time. The feelings are running high. 

~This may be feeling like an intense time! It's bringing lots of great opportunities for transformation and change however. Life is about cycles. There are times to cultivate the new and then times to release that which isn't serving. You could think of our lives as gardens, which we are in the midst of planting and tending to. While we tend our gardens there are inevitably weeds we must pull. That basically describes the current energy we are going through~
