$\"Full$ <\/a>In the Full Moon is in Scorpio nothing is superficial \u2013 this Full Moon is all about delving deep into the Mysteries where the Truth lies unexposed in its raw and most real form. \u00a0The astrological Moon represents our emotions and feelings \u2013 it shows where we retreat to when we are under stress and our instinctive reactions that are unencumbered by any sense of what others expect.<\/p>\n

Scorpio is a water sign and therefore involved with the emotional realm. \u00a0But Scorpio\u2019s traditional ruler is Mars \u2013 a fire planet. \u00a0The emotion of Scorpio is nothing like the \u201cgo with the flow\u201d emotional adaptability of Pisces, or the deeply sensitive and easily wounded nature of Cancer. \u00a0Scorpio is passionate and intense and can be aggressive in its need to defend and protect. \u00a0Scorpio\u2019s modern ruler is Pluto, the planet of transformation and the ultimate Truth of Life and Death, which drives that need for intensity into a powerhouse of release and reconstruction.<\/p>\n

In the Scorpio Full Moon the lunar instinct turns towards the fire of emotion in order to find our inner passions and face our emotions with courage and awareness. However, the Sun is opposite the Moon in Taurus, seeking peace and serenity in the midst of that Scorpionic emotional fire. \u00a0The Full Moon, like any opposition, requires balance. \u00a0The Scorpio Moon is in its ascendancy and is the stronger of the two during this lunar event, but the Taurus Sun is whispering to us, encouraging us to stay rooted into the Earth while we allow the fire of our passions and enthusiasm to engulf us in the flames of transcendence.<\/p>\n

Scorpio as a rule demands our complete attention, and that will be emphasized as an opposition from Mercury to Saturn (discipline and material reality) culminates at the Full Moon and forces us to confront any areas of our psyche in which we carry a delusion that holds us back.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile an awkward aspect \u00a0between Uranus (radical behavior) and Mars (aggressive instinct) suggests an inner restlessness and urge to flee the confrontation of this Full Moon and planning for some sort of outlet for this energy is advised. Mars is also exactly square (a conflicting aspect) to the lunar nodes which represent a sense of fate and inner direction, so this Full Moon marks a sort of turning point. Perhaps a decision will be necessary, or an event will occur that will affect our lives permanently.<\/p>\n

Those of us with an emphasis in Scorpio, or with strong Mars and Pluto aspects, will find this Full Moon exhilarating in its power. \u00a0Those of us who are somewhat fearful of these influences may feel rather overwhelmed, but remember that this Full Moon is a beautiful opportunity to allow your own drive and motivation and deepest desires be known.<\/p>\n

This Full Moon is a time of courage and raw power. \u00a0Let go of the superficial \u2013 let go of any illusions of who you think you are. \u00a0Be not afraid: \u00a0allow your delusions and confusions to be burned away in the fire of emotion, and allow yourself to emerge from the ashes renewed and with a new understanding of who you really are. \u00a0THAT is the lesson of this Scorpio Full Moon.<\/p>\n
