Dear Fellow Seekers on the Path of the Unseen

The Scorpio Full Moon is an emotional Moon that can unearth secret feelings we have been harbouring deep inside.

Watch out for deeply buried dreams and visions, hurts, resentments and regrets to resurface under this Moon. This is an opportunity to deal with, accept or let them go once and for all. Scorpio destroys the old to make way for the new, and with Mercury in retrograde this is a great time to reflect, take stock, and heal any wounds that are sapping your energy and motivation to move forward. Utilize this full Moon’s energy to release past karmic ties with people, and move on from toxic relationships that no longer serve you.

In order to make the most of this intense and powerful full Moon, find creative ways of releasing emotions that may come up. It is all too easy to be overwhelmed and obsessive under this Moon, so beware of becoming too suspicious, obsessively mulling over things people say, feeling regretful and taking offence too easily.

If things get too intense, go out in nature and hug a tree, lie with your face buried in grass or sunbath for a while. Find your own connection with nature and tune into the wonderful, vibrant energy of the coming summer to lift your mood and raise your energy.

The wonderful creative energy of the New Moon in Taurus had us weaving our dreams on this physical level by rooting our projects into the ground. Now any remaining barriers or blocks that hold us back will be illuminated over this Full Moon, enabling us to recognise areas that need to change.

The full Moon in Scorpio is the most intense and intimate Moon of the year, urging us to ask ourselves: “How can I best accept the reality of my situation without feeling overwhelmed by my emotions and needing to blame or feel resentment towards others?”

Feelings and emotions that have come up for you over the last few weeks can find completion during this full Moon cycle. The more we let go and remain balanced and calm when the storms hit, the sooner we can recognise the sun when it appears. As Dolly Parton once said `If you wanna have rainbows, you gotta put up with the rain!`

The Scorpio full Moon brings intimacy with ourselves and others. We can shy away from this influence, or embrace the opportunity to know ourselves more deeply. Instead of blaming and positioning ourselves as ‘victim,’ this Moon can help us get in touch with some of the rage and its underpinning feelings of powerlessness to live our forgotten dreams and passions that have been buried deep within us.

Instead of turning the frustration you may feel on yourself, or another, channel this Moon’s influence into pro-active manifesting! This Moon illuminates the path of passion and desire so do something positive rather than feel helpless with the injustices that seem to surround us.

Be bold and brave this Moon, unlock your deepest soul desires and embrace the opportunity to really accept the darkest parts of yourself. Get in touch with your inner rain and sun, your light and dark, the blessings and the burdens, the yin and yang in your life and recognise them as the continuous shifting balance that creates this reality.

The media seem to have forgotten that there are wonderful things happening in the world. Summer is coming, and things are looking lush, green and gorgeous. Many people are also experiencing the energy of fertility and growth. There are positive stories unfolding every day, all over the planet, and we can choose to immerse ourselves in these positive energies whenever we CHOOSE to – check out www.positivetv.tv for uplifting stories about people who are making a difference in the world or living their dreams and passions, to inspire us.

Sometimes, it can be hard to really take a good long look at ourselves and our patterns of behaviour, and take responsibility for what we are creating in our lives. Remember that every behaviour is an attempt to meet a need – are there other, more fulfilling way to meet some of your needs? A Scorpio full Moon is the greatest opportunity under the lunar influences to utilize introspection and see the truth of your reality – opening up the opportunity to take positive action if we are unhappy.

This feminine, passionate, intense Moon can be a very healing teacher, if we are willing to accept ourselves, so suspend inner self-judgement and negative self-criticism, and start enjoying the journey.

I will end this Lunascope with the wise words of Pope Paul VI:

“Somebody should tell us, right at the start of our lives that we are dying. Then we might live life to the limit, every minute of every day. Do it! I say. Whatever you want to do, do it now! There are only so many tomorrows.”

A FINAL NOTE: - while Mercury, the planet of communication, goes retrograde from 6th May to 30th May - avoid signing contracts, buying a new house, kitchen appliances, car, computer, camera, TV, furniture, or other material objects unless the energy specifically flows forward. On the other hand, this is a wonderful time to reflect, re-examine, re-evaluate, and re-assess aspects of your life - and a good time to buy a used car!!!
