Full Moon in Scorpio - April 26, 2021
On Monday, April 26, 2021 (8:31 PM PDT and 11:31 PM EDT), the Super Full Moon glows in the watery and penetrating sign of Scorpio. The sign that lives in the depths, is fluent in the language of death and rebirth, and is here to make the unconscious conscious. Scorpio is wired to look deeply, and she needs truth as much as the air she breathes. I’m not talking about a meaning of life kind of truth, but rather the truth of a moment, the truth of what’s real, and the truth of who you are.
So what does all this mean for this Full Moon?
This Full Moon carries the intensity of our deepest and most raw emotions. You might feel more sensitive than usual and more tuned in to the hidden motivations of others, or maybe even more aware of your own. This Scorpio energy wants you to cut through the BS and get real honest about what’s going on in a relationship, project, work, or event, etc. (depending on were it lands in your chart). Since Scorpio tends to play in the depths, she’s familiar with all that is hidden and unseen and it’s clear that the energy of this Full Moon is trying to bring the hidden up to the surface.
Opposing this Moon, we have the Sun in Taurus aligned with the unpredictable planet Uranus. Taurus is the sign that pulls us into our bodies so that we might learn how to calm down. Yet with Uranus close by opposing the Moon we might feel like the ground we’re standing on feels more like shifting sand. Don’t be surprised if something out of the blue catches you off guard or maybe you’ll experience a change about how you thought things would go.
This Full Moon might also highlight the tug of war between Taurus who wants simplicity and likes everything to stay the same while Scorpio makes it a little more complicated by pushing us into extremes and making us feel everything. If you are thrown off kilter by something that happens, try to stay grounded, and find your center so that you don’t get caught in extreme thinking.
I’d also like to add that Pluto, the ruler of Scorpio, is the planet associated with transformation, truth, power, and the wounds we must face. On the day after this Full Moon, Pluto stations Retrograde until October 6thand pushes you to reflect on what is no longer working. You may want to consider the foundations that support you in your life and whether or not they reflect your truth or whether they require you to keep living in the past. You may want to look back to last October and consider what it was you were releasing then. It might give you some clues about what’s being brought to completion.
While some of the stuff you’ve wanted to keep hidden and below the surface is appearing now, this energy is asking you to face it and move through it. Take a moment and consider these questions: What am I afraid to feel? What am I afraid to see? What truth do I need to claim? Can the foundations I’ve created support the life I want to live?
So use this energy to get in touch with your raw emotions that don’t require you to plaster a painted smile or a simple “I’m okay” response. Do your best to feel it all and if it becomes too much find what grounds you and makes you feel safe – especially if any unexpected events come across your path. So feel it all, but make sure you don’t get stuck in your emotions.
While we all might feel pulled during this Full Moon to look deeply within, we will each experience this lunar energy differently depending on where Scorpio is located in your chart or if you have a natal planet associated with it. If you would be interested in a more personalized reading, I’d love to set up a session with you.
