This month's
full moon falls at 27 degrees of Scorpio May 18, and this moon demands
substance and depth, good or bad. The
lunar peak occurs at 5: 11 PM, EST. Now is the time to get to the bottom of
deeply felt issues and problems. It clashes with Uranus mid-day on Friday which
could bring some unexpected developments, and some full moon events may play
out at this time.
The energy
of this full moon will last for the next 2 weeks until the new moon, and the
energy will be dominant a week before this full moon occurs.
Emotions
will be stirred up with this Moon and its planetary rulers are Pluto and Mars.
Pluto rules the 8th house of sex, other people's money and inheritance, and
Mars sign is Aries and rules the first house of self and self interests. Pluto
is all about regeneration.
The opposite
sign of Scorpio is Taurus and we have a stellium of planets in this sign
including Venus which is conjunct Uranus at 3-4 degrees. Taurus is about
connecting with the earth, security and staying power. Venus-Uranus can bring a
jolt of energy that can change some
things or set you on a different path than expected. You or someone else
could do something unexpected.
This Moon
highlights the 8th/2ond house axis which relates to money, other people's
money, drugs, sex, and change and transformation of all kinds.
It is opposite Sun/Mercury which can mean communication that can lead to disagreements.
Sun-Moon is willful. Mercury in Taurus
can be like meeting up with an immovable object so watch your communication.
This may not be the time to speak of contumacious issues.
When a full
moon occurs the Sun is opposite the moon highlighting opposing forces in your
life such as what you want versus what you have. Emotions peak on a full moon
and some things can blow up, or be blown out of proportion.
The good
news is that Saturn and Pluto in Capricorn as well as Neptune support the
Sun/Mercury giving us an opportunity to work through issues that may come up.
The Sun at
26 degrees of Taurus is conjunct fixed star Algol, and the Moon opposes
it. Algol teaches us to stand up for
ourselves and fight for the underdog when a injustice occurs.
Algol is
associated with violence, beheading, accidents to the head and losing one's
head, literally and metaphorically. Look for issues to play out in the world
that fit the description of this star, as well as issues concerning women.
The
population in the U.S. will be stirred up and this moon squares the Moon(people,
especially women) in the U.S. natal chart. Scorpio rules money, and the
Venus-Uranus conjunction can bring market fluctuations as well as news
pertaining to women.
The Full
moon falls in the 12th house of the US chart and in mundane (world) astrology
this relates to conditions that mitigate against public welfare, labor disturbances,
epidemics, prisons, hospitals, organizations devoted to control of people,
secret enemies, spies, crimes and criminals, and actions being taken in secret.
