Full Moon in Scorpio - Horoscopes + Ritual
/Happy Scorpio Full Moon, My love! Get ready for a plunge!!
The history of Scorpio invokes the mythologies of death, mysticism, and psychology. Scorpio in one breath can accomplish what all the other signs combined cannot. However, this great strength comes at a great price. Scorpio’s Plutonian force is summoned from the depths of sorrow, misfortune, and spiritual awakening. In order for Scorpio to find its way through the underworld, it must first accept and channel the source and root cause of its feeling. Scorpio has to go where all the others fear. Scorpio is the sea which consumes the abyss of sacred knowledge and life experience. It is the well of life and death.
When associated with the Moon, Scorpio takes on a deeper emotional quality. It’s fixed water energy uncovers our innermost deep-seated truths. We may crave more intimacy and transparency. We may fall victim to insecurity which births secrecy and malice. Emotions fluctuate between excessive and zen. But within it all, the Moon and Scorpio become one. Scorpio takes on the Moon’s fluidity and empathy for others, and together they accomplish powerful things.
Today’s Full Moon at 5:12 PM EST invokes the deepest parts of Scorpio. The moon will reach its fullness at 27’38°. This energy pulls us under, forces us to face the parts of our lives and selves that must die and be born again. Something that we least expect rocks us during the waning period of the Full moon (4-12 days after the full moon) . During this period, we should expect big emotions, ranging from the highest joys to the lowest of sorrows. But what we shouldn’t expect and speculate is how this will affect us, what comes next, why it happened, or what it means. Instead of rationalizing our emotions, we must FEEL them.
The Full Moon should not be misjudged as Many of us have created personalities and stereotypes about how we should and will respond to certain situations, especially negative ones, but this only cuts us off from the present. Scorpio is fixed water, and we all know how unpredictable water is. This energy is slow moving and mysterious — there’s no escaping this one. We can’t out read it, smoke it, sex it, sleep it, eat it, whatever we are facing, we have to accept that it just is. Because when we lean into this energy, when we fall to our knees and bow, it SHIFTS!
But what we have to learn as creators is that this isn’t a magic trick; manifestation is not a calculated science. Just because we say it once or twice doesn’t make it fact. We have to feel this out, ride whatever wave we are on, and learn from it the best way we can.
