You are still the Bull.
You crossed the gate not with a charge, but with calm certainty, hoof by hoof, heart steady. Behind you, the fences are gone. Before you, a wide, fertile field stretches endlessly—your new life beginning to take shape.
But as you graze and grow in this open expanse, dark clouds begin to gather. Thunder cracks. The air shifts. This is no ordinary spring storm—this is the Scorpio Full Moon, and it brings a deep emotional purge. Lightning forks overhead—not to strike you down, but to illuminate what’s still buried, still heavy, still hidden in the soil of your soul.
This is not the time to bolt or buck.
This is the time to remember: you’ve already crossed the gate.
The storm is here to cleanse, not to destroy. You feel the ground rumble with the Sun conjunct Uranus—surprising insights strike like lightning, shaking loose old fears. The wind howls with Mercury square Pluto—tempting you to overthink, obsess, doubt. You snort, your breath steady. You’ve been here before. But now, you're not reacting—you're rooted.
You let the rain fall.
You do not run. You do not fight. You stand still. You let the water soften the ground so that what needs to go can finally be released.
You feel the trines and sextiles—Saturn, the North Node, Mars and Venus—beneath your hooves. The earth is speaking. It's saying: stay calm, stay natural, stay open to joy, even now. These energies carry you gently forward—not by force, but by inner knowing.
This storm will pass.
In the distance, a break in the clouds glows gold. The field you’ve chosen is still yours. Greener now. Clearer. Rinsed of what was clinging too tightly. And when the sun returns, you will not be the same Bull who crossed that gate.
You will be transformed by your stillness, your faith in the current of life, and your willingness to grow even in the storm.
On Monday, May 12, 2025, the Full Moon rises in the emotionally intense and transformative sign of Scorpio, bringing with it a powerful opportunity to release what no longer serves and to strengthen your inner resolve. This isn’t just any full moon—it comes with a dynamic set of astrological aspects that challenge you to grow, but also offer surprising clarity and support for doing so in a calmer, more grounded way than you might expect.
At the heart of this lunation is a potent Sun–Uranus conjunction in Taurus, directly opposite the Scorpio Moon. This pairing can bring sudden revelations or unexpected events that, rather than creating chaos, provide sustainable insight or breakthroughs. The Scorpio Moon lends courage, emotional depth, and the willpower to face truth head-on, while the Taurus Sun gives you a sense of confidence and steadiness. These energies together help you feel both brave and anchored, even when the unexpected occurs.
Supportively, the Moon forms a trine to Saturn and the North Node in Pisces, while the Sun–Uranus duo forms a sextile to this same conjunction, creating a harmonious triangle of cosmic energy. This configuration strengthens your ability to stay intuitive, patient, and committed, especially when faced with decisions that require long-term vision. Saturn in Pisces brings spiritual maturity and a quiet steadiness, while the North Node draws you toward your purpose with calm conviction. These aspects encourage you to solve problems from within, often discovering that a troubling situation suddenly “clicks” into place with a sense of relief and inner knowing.
Adding to this supportive backdrop, Mars in Leo forms a trine to Venus in Aries, energizing you with a sense of joy, courage, and confidence to take bold action—especially in matters of the heart, creativity, and personal expression. This is a time for standing strong in your own natural power, but not through force. Rather, it’s about flowing with life from a place of enthusiasm and authenticity, allowing clarity and action to unfold naturally.
However, some challenges are still present. Mercury in Taurus squares Pluto in Aquarius, stirring up mental tension, obsessive thoughts, and communication challenges. There can be a tendency to overthink, become overly critical—especially of others—or struggle to feel heard. This aspect can lead to impulsive blurting or frustration if you’re not grounded. It’s important here to slow down, speak thoughtfully, and give space for true listening—both to yourself and others.
Finally, Jupiter in Gemini squares the Nodal Axis, suggesting that our worldview may be too rigid or based on outdated assumptions. There’s likely something important not being said—either within your relationships or in your own internal dialogue. The antidote? Flexibility. Frequent, honest communication. Slowing down and allowing joy to lead. Jupiter in Gemini wants you to learn and explore, but not at a frantic pace. It reminds you to go with the flow, let curiosity be your guide, and embrace a more light-hearted way of processing life’s changes.
This Full Moon in Scorpio is not about fighting the storm—it’s about standing strong within it, rooted in your truth, open to insights, and trusting the flow of transformation. There is incredible power in being able to respond with calm, clarity, and courage when life takes unexpected turns. Let this Full Moon guide you into a deeper connection with your inner strength—and remind you that growth doesn’t always come from struggle. Sometimes it arrives in a quiet moment of realization, under a sky lit by both lightning and moonlight.
