🌕 Mindfulness Monday | Full Moon in Scorpio

Monday, May 12th, 2025, 6:55am HST / 9:55am PST

Theme: Releasing Control & Trusting Inner Alchemy

Today’s Full Moon in Scorpio invites deep emotional release, radical self-honesty, and transformation from the inside out. Scorpio, ruled by Pluto, governs our psychological depths—what we cling to, what we fear, and where we rise stronger from the ashes. This lunation activates several potent aspects that deepen and guide the emotional alchemy unfolding:

✨ 1. The Sun in Taurus, Ruled by Venus (Now in Aries) The Sun sits strong in grounded Taurus, calling us to anchor into what truly nourishes our bodies and values. Venus—Taurus’ ruling planet—has just entered Aries, igniting bold, self-directed desire. This shift encourages you to assert your wants unapologetically and redefine self-worth through courageous action.

✨ 2. The Sun Conjunct Uranus (4° Orb) While the Full Moon peaks, the Sun slowly approaches Uranus—planet of disruption and higher insight—with exact conjunction arriving on Saturday, May 17th. Expect surprises, downloads of genius, and the urge to break free from old patterns. What’s outdated can no longer hold. Uranus awakens a new frequency in the way you value stability and freedom.

✨ 3. The Moon Opposes Uranus This opposition at the time of the Full Moon stirs emotional restlessness, rebellion, or unexpected breakthroughs. You may feel stretched between the safety of what’s familiar and the call of liberation. The lesson? Let go of control and let intuition lead.

✨ 4. Moon Trine Saturn in Pisces & Venus Trine Mars in Leo This Full Moon isn’t all chaos—it’s held and softened by two beautiful, supportive trines. The Moon harmonizes with Saturn in Pisces, helping us ground emotional release with compassion, boundaries, and wisdom from past cycles. Meanwhile, Venus in Aries and Mars in Leo form a dynamic trine, boosting motivation in matters of love, creativity, and self-confidence. This is heart-led fire: bold, expressive, and aligned with passion.

🧘🏽‍♀️ Scorpio Full Moon Guided Meditation

Length: ~5 minutes

Begin by finding a quiet space. Sit or lie down comfortably. Close your eyes. Take a deep breath in… and slowly exhale.

🌬 Grounding Breath

Inhale deeply through your nose…Hold for a moment…Exhale slowly through your mouth.

Again, inhale…Feel your body soften as you exhale…One more time… inhale peace… exhale tension.

Feel yourself becoming still… grounded… present.

🌕 Full Moon Visualization

Imagine a bright, full moon glowing above you—soft, silver light pouring down over your body.

This is the Scorpio moon: powerful, deep, mysterious. Feel her light revealing what’s been hidden in the shadows—fears, wounds, patterns you've outgrown.

You are safe to witness them. You are safe to release them.

🔥 Letting Go & Transformation

With your next breath, imagine placing anything heavy—any pain, confusion, or control—into a bowl before you.

This bowl is held by Scorpio’s fire, the flames of alchemy.

Breathe in courage…Exhale and release what you’re ready to let go of into the flames.

Watch them transform your pain into light, your fear into wisdom.

You are not broken. You are becoming.

🌟 Inviting the New

Now place your hand on your heart.Feel the steady rhythm of your body—alive, present, strong.

Gently whisper to yourself:I release what no longer serves me. I trust my transformation.

Feel that truth settle in your body like warm gold.

Ask yourself silently:

What am I rising into?

Let the answer come, gently, without force.

🌌 Closing

Begin to wiggle your fingers and toes…Take a final deep breath in…And slowly exhale.

When you feel ready, open your eyes.

Carry this light. You are ready to rise.
