Full Moon in Scorpio 2018 “Tears in Heaven” Eric Clapton
The Full Moon in Scorpio is deeply intimate and feels profoundly which gives it the potent high water mark and intense outreach and outpouring of energy. Scorpio Moon fesses up and spills its guts, full on raw and revealing. The Moon is in its fall in Scorpio where the Moon is not in its most favorable position due to the Scorpio Moon tendency to extremes in emotion and desire.
Scorpio, ruled by Pluto, and co-ruled by Mars, doesn’t hold back, but can subdue to a subtle affect with a mysterious undertone, fixed, loyal and penetrating. Pluto connects to the inevitable, and when afflicted often to betrayals, broken trust, endings, death and grieving. With Mars join Pluto the last week, its potent punch, intense actions and transformations manifested in a disturbing, tragic multiple homicide with a troubled man using a van as a weapon, running down pedestrians in Toronto, Canada.
Mars and Pluto elevate the libido and sex drive and with Mars and Pluto in Capricorn, the sex drive is controlled, grounded, earthy, sensual and lusty. Mars Pluto can also turn to rage, if the sex drive or anger can`t find an outlet. Mars is about to move into retrograde the next few months, moving into a challenging energy pattern around eclipse season in July/August.
The Full Moon in Scorpio makes many positive aspects, which helps to offset the intensity of the Mars Pluto conjunction. The Full Moon in Scorpio oppose the Taurus Sun highlights the money sector (taxes, debts, inheritance, savings, loans) and falls in a timely fashion around tax time. The Full Moon makes a stable aspect to Saturn accentuating conservative money management, sorting out money matters, debts paid off. Saturn Capricorn is grounding, sustaining, responsible, making moderate decisions with solid boundaries, keeping in line and keeping things real, emotions somber and serious. The Full Moon also builds to join Jupiter in Scorpio and a flowing trine with Neptune Pisces increasing an overall emotionally sensitive, supportive and forgiving energy.
