Full Moon, 11 May 2017, Scorpio

Exact time & zodiac degree of this moon | Understanding Full Moons |

Destiny has turned a corner. This Full Moon in Scorpio coincides with the Nodes (the destiny axis) changing zodiac signs. After spending 18 months in Virgo/Pisces, the Nodes will now spend the next 18 months in Leo/Aquarius. Given how the Full Moon is in Scorpio, and Scorpio is an archetypal energy relating to the hidden coming to light, life sends you a message to show what’s on its way. As daily newspapers don’t give fate updates, we need to be with our personal thoughts, feelings, attitudes and intentions to get our soul news. The mysteries of the inner workings of life are connected with the Scorpio archetype, and it’s our intent that influences and even persuades life, through its laws of action and attraction, to send certain life experiences our way. Under a Scorpio Full Moon hidden intentions come to light, and we might even find ourselves in passionate exchanges with others about what we’re realising their intent is, or what they’re realising ours is. This is exciting and invaluable if the intention is to fully focus and support each other to live the best possible lives, but not so great if there’s cross-purposes.

You might for example have agreed with your partner or housemate that the joint intent is to share household duties so both of you have other time freed up for special things. But in practice one of you has not been doing their share of the household duties. Under a Full Moon in Scorpio the one left with the domestic tasks suddenly ‘wakes up’ and pays attention to what’s been going on and realises there must be a hidden intent undermining the consciously discussed and agreed intent. Let’s imagine you’re the one who really clearly sees that for the past weeks you’ve been carrying the double load of household chores. Or in another example let’s say that you made a commitment to yourself that you would get up half an hour earlier each morning to have uninterrupted time to enjoy researching a major overseas holiday you’d like to take. But you never did get up early, and now not only have all the early bird flights gone, but your work colleague has put in for leave during the weeks you wanted to travel and has been approved, which means you might miss out.

Under a Full Moon in Scorpio we question what on earth has been going on. We do an inventory of hidden intents to find the sabotages from within or from others, and get back on track. Doing an intent stock-take at this Scorpio Full Moon and immediately prioritising what needs to change has the potential to remedy a major problem. If you have already been congruently following-through on your intent with heart-centred focus, but things feel tough, this Full Moon brings more information to help unblock blocks, yet this might require reaching out to experts who can help with your particular block. Be sure to check the hidden intent of even the experts you turn to. It’s well worth the effort to seek and find the right help at this destiny turning point time.
