Full Blue Moon in Scorpio
We are being gifted with a really magical moon this month! Not only is it a full moon, but it’s a blue moon and the last one of the decade! Scorpio is ruled by Pluto, which is currently in retrograde. The events this full moon will bring are so aligned with nature and its cycles. A lot of us will be releasing old parts of ourselves. We are craving new changes and are fighting ourselves internally because of it.
Pluto and Saturn retrograde can cause us to continue in this cycle of karmic behaviour. We catch ourselves slipping and change but if something distracts us enough, are back where we started. We reflect on our karmic behaviour which included us pretending everything was fine but we’re screaming internally. Feeling guilty if we were to express our emotions so we decided to keep it bottled up instead. As much as we know this behaviour is unhealthy for us, sometimes we slipAlthough we are trying to show our authentic selves, we have high expectations of ourselves and still could be feeling stuck. We don’t know what to do and are afraid to do anything that requires movement. I feel as a collective because we just went through so much emotionally, we want to stay where we are for a while. We are not asking for what we want again and are having a hard time believing our frustration is valid. It feels like a lot of us could still be doing self-sabotage without knowing it. Jupiter is square to Neptune so we could be easily mislead by others and have unrealistic expectations. We assume the person we are dealing with is elevated and wants the best for us but that could all be a lie. We just choose to not believe it. Eventually we choose to make up excuses for why it’s okay for these results to be given instead.
Days after the full moon we are feeling really unsatisfied with our routine. We slowly are waking up and decide it’s time to create new structure to our routines. We do so in a slow manner and can resist the change we ourselves are trying to create! We are having a battle with ourselves and are becoming passive aggressive to others. Mars is in Cancer so when we are approaching the people in these situations with us, the discussion we have isn’t pretty. We may receive defensive reactions from them, or are having to chase them to discuss how we feel because they are avoiding confrontation. It’s important for us to keep trying and approach as gently as we can. We need this emotional connection to release what is necessary. We want to be heard out at least once before moving forward.
With the trine of Neptune to the Moon, we will feel heightened sensitivity. Again, our emotions are a mess. We are also feeling the emotions of everyone else around us, everyone is a sponge soaking up each other’s vibrations. We’re feeling the need to escape to a different reality so a road trip could be planned, camping trips or full on flying out of town! As we escape to that different reality we realize that our intuition was right the whole time. We were following it before but we may have been looking too deeply into something, causing us anxiety and frustration.
I see everyone eventually really getting themselves back on track after a wave of emotion. We will start to wake up and realize the environment we’re in is not allowing us to grow. Or this situation we’re in is not allowing us to grow. Maybe it’s a job, a relationship or a contract with another company. As we start to do a deep investigation and reflect we start to ask: is this secure for me? As we start to speak up, we are starting to be literal with our communication. Being truthful is important but make sure you’re not insulting anyone! Avoid the “I said what I said” attitude and try to approach the situation gently. Doing this will align us better to our intentions.
We may start to become more and more irritated with ourselves and the situations we are in because we are feeling emotionally drained. We are expressing that we’re not settling and we are demanding more out of our relationships; romantic and others included. We are looking for concrete answers as we are starting to pull back the layers and seeing the bigger picture for what it truly is. These situations we feel stuck in or bind in, are really taking a toll on how we see ourself; we are feeling disconnected. We are being too hard on ourselves and we’re now starting to realize we need to take a step back. Certain projects may not be coming together the way you hoped them to and you’re realizing it’s okay.
I see us feeling proud of ourselves for stepping up and asking for quality results. We are starting to go back to showing our authentic selves, but this time we aren’t afraid to show our flaws. We are owning up to our shadow side and working with it. Because of this we are radiating positive energy and receiving positive attention. And by attention this means the praise we deserve, starting to see the results we asked for. Sound healing is so therapeutic and can help us a lot right now. Music, sounds of nature, sound bowls, frequencies; just feeling connected. After this mini journey we decide to reconstruct our routines. And it actually turns out to be a really good productive time! We feel this adrenaline rush after this journey and get ourselves back on track. Like after a good cry you have the urge to get stuff done.
These emotions are truly sensitive and it’s the reason why we haven’t moved forward yet. The cosmos are showing we all need to release something but we are resisting. We are scared to move away from our comfort zone because we’re so overwhelmed already. Think about this in your next meditation: is this situation making me overwhelmed or am I really afraid to move forward? The cosmos suggest we take the leap of faith and release this to move forward. The loss of something means the gain of something new!
I suggest working with the water element a lot this full moon. Create a bath ritual or cast your intentions near the ocean or a river. This is also a powerful time to release and banish bad habits. You can purchase banishing oil or our transformation bath soak from our store which will be brewed during this moon! There is no need to force your movement, just be open to it. Trust that it will come when it is necessary.
