With the Moon culminating in the emotionally intense sign of Scorpio, we are drawn to deep feelings about issues of life and death, mystery, secrets, discovery, beginnings and endings. Meanwhile, the Sun stationed in opposite, goal-oriented Taurus, creates tension by holding our collective focus on the practical matters of accomplishment, dedication, and achievement. Though we may long for intensity and some sort of spiritual, philosophical, psychological or sexual escape right now, we also need to be sure to maintain some discipline and persistence to handle our responsibilities even while we ponder broader life concerns.
The Scorpio full Moon energy aspires to be sensual, sensitive, strong and surviving. The contrast between the Sun’s position and the Moon’s placement, however, can have us feeling as if our heart’s desires have been on hold indefinitely, hanging in the balance, and creating pressure, overwhelm, anger and frustration. We can best navigate this time in honor of water sign Scorpio by being more sensitive, careful, controlled, and mindful of staying centered now . . . and please be sure to pause and consider other people’s feelings before doing or saying something you may later come to regret!
As always, these energies apply to groups of all sizes as much as they apply to individuals. So, be mindful that we are also talking about the best way to navigate new balance between our practical action and political/social/economic theories. In this sense, the balancing required is not about watering down either approach but rather it is about fully honoring all true perspectives and finding good ways to meaningfully incorporate the best practices of both strategies into our plans now.
“You do control the thoughts that follow an emotion, and you have a great deal of say in how you react to an emotion–as long as you are aware of it.”
Travis Bradberry
The current pull between the Sun and Moon placement can instigate emotional intensity, impatience, and irritability. Should any sensitive feelings come up, stop to consider other perspectives and find the common ground in awareness of the higher values of INTEGRITY, STRENGTH, and PURPOSE.The polarity between the Taurus Sun and Scorpio Moon requires negotiating where we focus our energy; and we must have room for both our exploration of abstract feelings as well as accomplishment of our practical tasks now.
Scorpio moon energy is always a great time for intense meditation, amazing guided visualizations, profound prayers and sacred soul activities, deep artistic and creative exploration, as well as intimate connection and sensual expressions.
It may also be necessary to reassess your values, as issues about shared money, property and assets may arise. Contemplate what matters most to you now, and also celebrate all you have accomplished and learned recently. Stay centered and consider new ways to leverage your own value and creditworthiness . . this is a time to rethink old ideas about what you actually want and need while realizing you have more access to your desires when you collaborate with others.
Full moons are ideal for reflection, celebration and contemplation about realizing and appreciating what is working in our lives. It is also a good time for identifying anything that is less than desired to simply release and let go. Any practices that inspire assessment and emotional growth are especially powerful at this time of month. Answering timely questions is a great method to accomplish these goals.

Then, instigator Uranus, asteroid Chiron, and disciplinarian Saturn all provoke this Scorpio mood. Expect some emotional shake ups, possible wounds, and struggles.
The Full Moon occurs shortly before Pluto shifts into a lengthy retrograde motion. Pluto is about transformation and retrograde means that review and revisions are in order. Business, authority, government, institutions, and traditions are most affected over the next five months. And since Pluto rules life and death matters, all we feel about those issues are up for deep and powerful reflection during this period, too.

The 2021 Scorpio Full Moon is on Monday, April 26th (exact at 8:32 pm Pacific Time, and at 11:32 pm Eastern Time).

It is an excellent time to contemplate who you are, and focus on how you can be more sensitive and aware.
