Happy Full Moon ✨🌝✨

This weekend’s full moon is known as a “blue moon,” and the highly charged cosmic energy that radiates from it is believed to be 12 times more powerful than a regular full moon. When a blue moon occurs (which happens when two full moons occur in the same month or when there are 4 Full Moons within the same season) we are far more intuitive, sensitive, perceptive, psychic, empowered and mentally and emotionally stronger than normal.

The Moon pushes and pulls on our emotions, the same way it impacts the tides, so when the moon is at its brightest either magnetically draw people toward us or repel, reject and clear out anything or anyone harmful that does not serve the well-being of our mind, heart and soul. This can also be the reason we suddenly feel compelled to reconnect or make-up with those that we have previously lost contact with.

We may have felt extremely irritable and groundless over the past week, and as though everything is going wrong around us. This is due to our energetic bodies being out of alignment, as the magnetic force from the moon, as well as the Solar Storms have caused havoc with our personal electromagnetic fields.

This electric, magnetic and charismatic Scorpio Moon brings with it an intense, all-consuming energy phase that will compel us to question the sincerity of our closest relationships and how comfortable we feel when communicating our innermost feelings and desires.

Scorpio’s energy can often feel brutal, compulsive, and irrational, so this moon phase is likely to bring out our extremes, meaning we may feel immense love and passion one minute and high levels of anger or irritation the next.

The moon is enigmatic and empowering whichever phase it is in, however, the full moon in Scorpio brings super-charged energy. We will all feel this moon’s intensity, regardless of which zodiac sign we are born under, but those born under Scorpio will be affected far more than others.

Scorpio’s Full Moon pushes our buttons and triggers us so that we see our self-destructive behavioural patterns, and to see with clarity the truth about people around us.

It reminds us that although some lessons are traumatic to learn, it is vital to fully understand them, so that we refrain from repeating painful mistakes over and continuing the cycle of innate suffering. This lunar energy helps us break old habits, alter our perception and ultimately remove ourselves from unhealthy karmic attachments and dysfunctional entanglements.

Scorpio’s powerful vibration has been building over this past week and many will have already felt the disruption, strength, and intensity emanating from it, and have seen how it has heightened existing tensions by presenting through obsessions, jealousies, arguments, frustrations, and disagreements.

Anyone currently involved in a soulmate or twin flame relationship will already have been sensing the strength and intensity as Scorpio’s energy has been brewing and it is highly possible there has been conflict and friction occurring. We may even have become temporarily—or permanently separated—from those we are in intimate relationships with, as this moon’s energy as this lunar energy charges in and shakes everything in its wake and rocks anything not built on firm foundations.

Scorpios are emotionally intense, intriguing, and notoriously private characters and are known to be wary, suspicious, and have trust issues. Under Scorpio’s overbearing energy, we may have felt more introverted than normal and have hibernated away, as under this cosmic energy, we will find it difficult to directly communicate how we feel.

Even though emotions will be heightened, we will probably maintain a cool exterior and hide our true feelings, regardless of what is going on internally. Scorpio’s immense emotional and passionate energy can be overwhelming at times, which can terrify the emotionally unavailable types. This is why those born under this sign are possibly the most misunderstood and feared, and the reason they keep most of their feelings to themselves.

One of the most significant things we need to remember as this moon illuminates fully is that Scorpio has a nasty sting in its tail, and once they inflict that pain on someone, they are unlikely to feel guilt or remorse. As long as the other person suffers more, Scorpio walks away feeling justified, believing that if the line had not been crossed, they wouldn’t have felt the need to deliver a vengeful and deliberate final blow.

Another vital thing to remember is that Scorpio also has the longest, most detailed memory, so once they’ve been wronged, they won’t wait around to see if things can be put right. Therefore, anyone who behaves cruelly and callously during this moon period is likely to receive the ‘door lock & slam’, and despite pleads for forgiveness, second chances will be unlikely.

This may mean we will either sever relationships, or we’ll be on the receiving end, being told that someone we care deeply for no longer wants us in their lives. Either way, as painful as it may be to accept this, under Scorpio’s influence it is generally the least sincere relationships that come to a sudden close, so while it might be temporarily heartbreaking, in the long run, we will see that the ending was for our own good, and that it left space for more authentic, soul-deep connections to arrive.

Scorpio doesn’t do “fake” anything, so we will quickly become aware of anyone around us who is wearing a mask and is full of false pretences, and we won’t hesitate to take a match and burn certain bridges. 

During this energetic lunar wave, we may seem to others as though we’re handling things well, and appear unaffected on the surface, but internally, there will be a chaotic storm as our emotions fluctuate from high to low and we make difficult, but long overdue, decisions.

Although Scorpio can seem hard-hearted and aloof, it is purely self-protection, as they’re incredibly sensitive, cautious souls. Therefore, to prevent a visible, explosive roller-coaster ride, they attempt to control their emotions and usually succeed in hiding them well. During this full moon, regardless of our zodiac sign, this is how the majority of people who are highly sensitive to energy will feel.

Despite how challenging and volatile Scorpio is, it will be a period where our intuition—or even psychic ability—peaks, and we see things in those around us that we haven’t seen before – and unfortunately things we won’t particularly like. On the plus side, this helps us untangle the complex reasons we’ve allowed toxic dynamics to continue, and brings understanding to the true reason certain people have clung to our lives.

We will feel intolerant of some of the people we used to love being around, as the illusion of them dissipates and we feel compelled to have firm boundaries, to delete and block numbers and social media accounts, and even remove our presence from other people’s lives.

After this Scorpio moon, we will have gained invaluable insights that help us identify one-sided relationships. This means if someone or something is causing us pain, we won’t think twice before cutting cords and letting them go. We will be in a no-nonsense mood, focused intently on maintaining inner peace and happiness, rather than putting those who don’t value us first. 

Scorpio moon is a dramatic game-changer and immensely healing. It leads us on an eye-opening journey, where we receive the opportunity to “feng shui” our friendships and partnerships so we prioritise the genuine, loyal and trustworthy ones, and discover the joy in mutually deep levels of friendship and love. 

This is going to be a highly emotional and transformational time that highlights what needs to be released, helps us change habitual and negative thought patterns, and heals some of our oldest, open wounds. This is a Moon that clears the debris from our path so there is space for far better things that are on the way.
