The Moon goes full phase in the sign of Scorpio on May 5th at 8:35p PDT, opposing the Taurus Sun.
Scorpio is a water sign, and is a sign of extremes – in or out, all or nothing, black or white. Scorpio does not like the middle of the road or gray areas. It likes things to be clear and decisive. Very decisive
In the latest monthly e-zine, I mentioned how this Taurus cycle began as a Taurus 9 cycle – a time of completions, or recognizing what needed to come to an end in certain (or maybe all) areas of your life in tangible and actual ways.
Now that we’ve entered the month of May and entered a Taurus 1 cycle, it’s now about new beginnings and tangibly/actually getting things started. Those new beginnings are taking root in the space created by clearing out the old.
That said, with new circumstances and environments in your life, new personal boundaries need to be established. For both Taurus and Scorpio, the establishment or destruction of personal boundaries is a matter of utmost importance.
For Taurus, standing firm in its comfort zone on a material and physical level is how it maintains its personal boundaries. However, for Scorpio, dealing in emotional extremes are its way of tearing down or building up those boundaries. In times of change, those old boundaries may no longer serve you with the recent changes in your life. It is likely time to clear the old ones away to create new ones for the new circumstances and experiences in your life.
This Scorpio Full Moon cycle is about emotionally ‘letting go’ of our old and outdated personal boundaries so that the new elements that are trying to grow into our lives can be brought forth. This may be a major change and renewal for you, and with Scorpio being a water sign, these boundary changes are likely to trigger extreme emotional responses.
Scorpio is most often moved to extremes when it feels emotionally vulnerable or exposed. It doesn’t reveal its emotional truth easily, and when it does, usually it’s doing it in response to its personal boundaries being challenged or changed. Scorpio reveals its emotional truth in order to force a change to occur, or when it feels forced to reveal it in response to a change that is occurring or has already occurred.
Over these next few days (May 3rd-May 7th), it is a great take time to notice the areas of your life in which major changes are occurring, and how you and/or the people around you are actively responding to those changes. Recognize that the responses you experience and/or witness may be emotionally driven. Consider what you are learning about others during this time, and what you are learning about your own feelings about your relationships and interactions with them. This goes both ways as you may learn and realize their feelings about their interactions and relationships with you as you re-define and adjust your personal boundaries. You may find that what is happening and what you learn about yourself and others during this Full Moon may also be the reason(s) for needed major changes or decisions in the certain aspects of your life.
Once you notice and learn what you need to, you may find that the personal boundaries you need to set or re-define become crystal clear. Just in case you are still uncertain, now is the time to draw those new lines in the sand.
If you have not yet defined or re-defined your personal boundaries in certain areas of your life, it is likely you will make the decisions to do so during this Full Moon cycle…or it is possible that those decisions will be made for you – you may have no choice but to set boundaries in the face of certain revelations or events.
Embrace the experiences of this Full Moon cycle and the redefinition of your personal boundaries and the course of your life.
Until next time…
~ Light, Love, and Blessings,
Grace
