The goal of all life is death.
Sigmund Freud , Scorpio Rising, Taurus Sun, and Moon in Scorpio
This full moon will fall in 20 degrees of Scorpio, and those who have birthdays within five days of November 10, ( or who have their moon within 5 degrees of Scorpio)will likely feel it the most. Scorpio is notorious for being the zodiac’s most intense sign, and when the full moon falls in Scorpio, this is even more true!
Emotions will run deep. Ultimatums will brew to the surface, and your will power will likely be severely tested. The good news is the moon will be harmoniously aligned with Neptune, the planet of idealism and compassion, which will ultimately lead to a positive outcome. What’s even better is that the moon will be in perfect synch with Scorpio’s ruling planet, Pluto. This connection will add depth and soul to any major decision you make during this full moon cycle (to last until Tuesday, May 23).
It is true that Scorpio thrives off of living on the edge. This full moon cycle will be your opportunity to get out of your own way and let go of any deep fear you may have that’s been holding you back. Now will be the time to let go, and trust that you are powerful enough to attain what you most desire.

May Overview
ARIES (March 21- April 19)
With Mars, the rulers of Aries, in your chart’s arena of communication, you’ll be wise to think before you speak. Be adaptable, and you’ll get others on your side. A back and forth exchange in the way you negotiate will give you more room to navigate, so do your best to listen intently and put yourself in the mind of whoever is across the table (not easy, but with effort you’ll master it)! Thursday, May 11, will be a stand out as Mars will perfectly align with Saturn, the task master planet. This will bode well for international affairs, travel, media, academia, and legal matters. You’ll have incredible endurance, so use this day to go all the way with a challenging project- as you’ll likely complete it, with finesse. Sunday, the 28th, will be a day to watch out for, as Mars will be in direct opposition to Saturn, and your patience will be tested. Distance will help you remain objective, and with Saturn involved, you’ll likely learn an important lesson about temperance.
