Full moon May 12, 2025


The full moon in Scorpio can bring deep emotions to the surface. If you become aware of a desire or (unprocessed) emotion, take the time to face it. Don’t let yourself be distracted, don’t avoid feeling what comes up, but go through it. That way, you can truly resolve and process something, allowing you to move forward on your path without feeling like something is holding you back. It can be an intense process, and you might not even have words for it. Still, this is a healing time that brings depth, and through that, progress and new heights.

 

 

The Sun shines its light on the Moon from Taurus, which creates a need for a solid foundation. What do you need (or what can you do) to strengthen your foundation? In what ways could you stop just surviving and start living with more quality? Be creative, be brave, and follow the voice of your soul.

 

The Moon and the Sun are in harmony with the North Node (≈ life purpose), which allows you to intuitively pick up and seize opportunities that are connected to your soul’s mission. Listen to your feelings, as they are your guide and in tune with your purpose. The challenge, however, may be to actually act on these opportunities. Don’t be too passive, don’t postpone - make it concrete and work toward your desired reality.

Because Jupiter is in disharmony with the Moon, it may cause you to overestimate yourself or make (big) plans without carrying them out. Dream big, but stay grounded in reality. Keep your feet on the ground, knowing that if you want change, you also need to take real steps and/or do something different than what you’ve done so far…

 

In this context, it's also worth noting that Mercury and Pluto are square to each other: you are being challenged to change an existing idea or a persistent thought that isn’t helping you move forward. Reframing your thinking and seeing possibilities will help you find the breakthrough or growth you are looking for. Again, if you want change but you change nothing… that’s the definition of insanity! Use this moon’s energy to discover which thoughts are holding you back from growing. What “yes, but…” do you often use? In what area do you tell yourself  “that’s just the way it is”? You can reach the breakthrough you desire if you examine yourself and take action where you feel stuck. Everything is possible, but (usually) you have to do something to make it happen.
