May 5 full moon in Scorpio & partial Lunar Eclipse
CET full moon 19.34
EST 6 hours earlier, approx. 13.34

Weโ€™re in the middle of spring. Things that were still new and fragile during the last moon are not so fragile anymore now and manifest themselves clearer.
Maybe you feel youโ€™ve got more energy, feel like undertaking things or taking steps to shape your plans.
The energy of the full moon can give you that nudge that is needed to take action so you can reap the fruits of it later.
What do you feel like doing? Which passion is awakening? What do you want to create or which initial goals and plan are beginning to unfold?

The full moon in Scorpio can cause deep feelings that are difficult to express. To digest, experience, or recognising which emotion is action up and why, rest can be important. Allow a deep feeling to exist, shine light on it so it is no longer elusive. Then feel what you need, here and now.
The Sun in Taurus makes you aware of your basis (your talents, possibilities, material items, basic needs). This gives creates a safe space from which you can explore your inner world.

The partial lunar eclipse: part of the Moon temporarily doesnโ€™t receive sunlight. This means that you have to become conscious of something that isnโ€™t entirely clear (yet) but that you do feel stirring inside.
Which feelings comes up during the eclipse? What donโ€™t you understand about yourself?
It likely is a known theme, but you cannot free yourself from something thatโ€™s fickle and feel liberated until youโ€™ve made time to get clarity and to digest it.

The theme of this lunar eclipse is: the deeper you go within โ€“meaning the more aspects & layers of yourself that you are familiar with- the higher you can fly.

The Moon and Black moon are inharmoniously positioned. This makes it more difficult to feel objectively what your soul is longing for. An emotion can come up (from an old hurt to a deep longing). Tune into that and try to feel: What is reaction to the outside world and what is genuine soul desire?
What does your environment need and ask (of you) and what do you need?

The star Menkar is at the same grade as the Sun and directly opposite the Moon. This fixed star is in the star sign Cetur, the Whale. This heavenly whale symbolises the human collective subconscious.
This see of the subconscious can be stormy and has tremendous depths.
You can suddenly be confronted with something thatโ€™s active within you personally or something in the world that was previously hidden can become public. (cultural & historical)
Menkar together with the Sun indicates it can be a time of extremes, but that you donโ€™t have to be a victim because you can guide your fate/destiny, provided you know your own depths.
This influence that something can come up out of the blue will stay active for several months.

Together with the Moon it can mean that both individually as globally emotions can run high.

Thereโ€™s more but it boils down to tuning into Self, your own depth so you truly know yourself. The more you have this, the freer you will feel. And the less you will feel victimised when something comes up.
The Whale will connect you with the Earth and the stars as you are part of both worlds.

Happy full moon & partial Lunar eclipse!

I've seen the moon for several evenings now :) Quite early she's high up already, in the south.

I notice I have a lot of energy, and I also have weird old memories come up every now and then. Nothing that upsets me but makes me think "WTH is the point of it?"
Nothing I need to deal with, so just odd it comes up.

In any case, so far so good. Scorpio full moons are usually great for me!

Hi Dee!! :heart: waving
Always happy to hear you enjoy the full moon posts!

Love how you describe seeing the moon! If I want to see it when still orange/reddish I'd have to get out of the village so I'm out in the open and can see the horizon.

Over here it was cloudy the evening before it was full so I couldn't see it at all...
A shame as I'd wanted to put crystals in the window but that night was totally overcast and I think we had rain as well.

Maybe next full moon I get the chance to bathe my crystals in its light!

Have a lovely Sunday, Dee! flowerforyou
