11 - 17 MAY 2025
This week, the cosmos offers us an invitation cloaked in intensity and transformation. With the Scorpio Full Moon peaking on Tuesday, May 13, we're swimming in deep emotional waters — stirred by Pluto retrograde, Venus-Uranus surprises, and Mars-activated soul shifts.The energy is thick, sacred, and soul-stirring. The kind of cosmic weather that doesn’t ask us to do more — it asks us to feel more.You may notice:
A longing to retreat and reflect
Emotional sensitivity rises to the surface, even unexpectedly.
Old wounds and stories returning for closure
Sudden clarity about what (or who) no longer fits
This isn’t a week to rush. It’s a week to pause, purge, and realign. A week to sit in the sacred middle — where endings and beginnings blur into one.
The big energy that kicks off the week is the Scorpio full moon. Its themes around emotional truth, radical surrender, soul rebirth are really next level for us all.
This moon won't let us skim the surface. We get to dive into the underworld, unearthing buried truths and forgotten grief. Ready or not we are all diving into this so don't resist even if it feels hard. We have to feel it to heal it and right now we are being comically held to feel fully, to surrender control, and to transform our pain into wisdom. Your pain really can be your super power if you allow it to be.
Scorpio’s medicine is that of the phoenix — we are meant to burn down what no longer serves us, so we can rise truer, freer, more aligned We are being initiated into deeper levels of honesty, sovereignty, and soul alignment and that my friends may feel a little confronting even for the best of us.
