11th May 2017 Full Moon in Scorpio

 

Hi everyone!
 
Still travelling under the Taurus Sun, feeling the arms of Mother Earth holding us through the changes and internal disruptions of the last weeks.  She’s always here for us when we choose to connect to the essence of the earth in its purity.
 
Taurus wants us to connect to the beauty of the earth and to the beauty of life on earth.  If you’ve been feeling tense and ungrounded this past week then chances are you’re letting Mercury agitate the mind activity and the nerves at the expense of allowing the gentleness of the earth energies to expand and nourish the psyche. 
 
Mercury now direct but moving very slowly:  Take it easy!
Mercury is on track heading in the right direction for our emergence from the intensity of the inner journey of her retrograde period.  Hopefully we’re feeling some fire power back and gradually feeling a growing sense of clarity and illumination as we allow seemingly new ideas to flood into our psyche.
 
Allowing time and space to integrate the new mental operating system:
The main thing is we don’t get steamed up and impatient with this slow motion.  We’re getting our mental energy aligned and adjusted to the new direction.
 
Physical exhaustion and addled mind:  Chill out!
If you’re feeling exhausted this past week you may have been pushing yourself physically going against this slow motion Mercury.  Of course Mercury in Aries WANTS us to go fast but it’s likely to be over reach when our constitution is integrating new mental operating systems.
 
It really calls us to pull back and turn off the mind and the mental overkill whilst we allow the changes to take place.  We’re shifting mental consciousness which at this time needs calm and stillness rather than physical up and at ‘em energy. There’ll be plenty of energy for that after the New Moon in Gemini.
 
Mercury, mind manager travelling with Uranus, the lightning striker as running mate:  
 Coming to exact meeting on 10th May!
Mercury and Uranus pushing us to move on...mentally!
Our engines are steamed up raring to move forwards back into physical reality. However, we need to remember that Mercury has been sitting on the same degree from the end of April until about 8th May. He may have built up the energy and may push us to get going but it’s a bit of a slow time before our mind energy is sharp enough to carry us forward with ease and grace.   
 
Potential for accidents, slips, trips, falls as Mercury gradually closes in on Uranus:
Mercury, our mind manager of our mental body has Uranus, the lightning striker, the revolutionary as a running mate. Uranus and Mercury together can create agitation of our nervous and neuralgic systems with the resultant impatience, irritation and frustration. 
 
Mercury and Uranus:  Driving the evolution and upliftment of our mental consciousness!
Mercury and Uranus are driving our engine bringing masses of insights and new ideas right up to 10th May when they come to an exact meeting at 25 degrees Aries. 
 
Mercury, as the lower mind is being uplifted by the higher mental consciousness of Uranus calling us to open our minds to possibilities which are entirely new, offering thinking ‘outside the box’.  If we want to take advantage of this connection, we’re meditating, contemplating, emptying the mind, relaxing and opening to the messages coming in.  We can’t do that when we’re full on occupied in the regular everyday world of 3D reality. 
 

10th May: 
Mercury meets/conjoins Uranus at 25 degrees 55 Aries at 3.20 pm AEST
Effective from 7th to 12th May
A reboot and upgrade in mental consciousness!  A Eureka moment!
 
When Mercury meets/conjoins Uranus we’re likely to find all those jigsaw pieces of insight, which have been surfacing over the past few weeks, seem to start falling into place.  This has the potential for a Eureka moment for those of us who have been receiving our messages and listening for the insights.  Our awareness is likely to pay off.
 
The Tower Card of the Tarot really captures the essence of Mercury and Uranus as it shows the inner shift in consciousness that comes like a bolt of lightning out of the blue.  It’s often a shock, surprise a huge realisation that may come about due to an occurrence in the physical world.  However, the Tower card is about inner change, a huge paradigm shift brought about with lightning speed.
 

Realignment with planetary consciousness...new direction!  
Information comes to light!
It’s interesting that these two meet for the start of a new chapter the day before the moon comes to fullness and the day when the Lunar Nodes change signs.  The nodes change signs approximately every 18 months, signifying a change in the focus for the planet’s evolutionary growth.  That of course includes all humanity as well as the earth itself.  Read on below for more on the Lunar Nodes.
 


The house of cards collapses:  
Saturn’s wizard of authority supporting the emergence of the new paradigm!
In the light of the Scorpio Full Moon expect this to be a huge ‘death’ of something we’ve been carrying that needs to depart.  Scorpio rules life, death, rebirth and transformation so will bring mammoth changes at the Full Moon.  Remember that the Full Moon is impacting us 3 days before and after it comes to fullness. 
 
As the old house of cards collapses with the release of illusions Saturn is the safety net in a supporting role to this deconstruction as he sits in a positive flowing trine to Uranus/Mercury.

16th May: Mercury moves into Taurus steaming along slow and steady!
20th May: Mercury moves out of shadow and moves into new territory.

 
10th May:  Nodes of the Moon change signs:  From Virgo/Pisces to Leo/Aquarius!
Until November 2018
The lunar nodes are the guiding force for our evolution of consciousness on planet earth.  They signify what we as humanity are leaving behind identified as the South Node and what we are embracing and integrating into consciousness identified by the North Node.  These points change every couple of years.  As we evolve the consciousness of the South Node we reach for the consciousness of the North Node.  These two energies work together as they are always in opposition so it’s a balancing act between the old and the new.  We bring the ‘old’ consciousness up to speed as we embrace the new direction of our growth.
 
So what does that mean for us now? 
 
North Node of the Moon enters Leo
The North Node of the Moon is our planetary guidance for spiritual evolution.  This point moves every year or so taking us ‘backwards’ through each sign.  Leo North Node is asking us to align with the light of our creativity, to put our energies into the expression of joy, fun, love, romance and creativity which stimulates the divine light within us. This is ‘bring in the divine child’ time, the child within who knows the joy of play, adventure, humour and laughter.  As far as loving connections, it’s light, fun, romantic and flowing with no heavy partnership commitments which are weighed down by any burdens.
 
The South Node of the Moon enters Aquarius
The South Node of the Moon is the planetary energy which we’re evolving.  It represents an old pattern of behaviour which we’re changing by reaching for the North Node.  Aquarius is a transpersonal energy and offers a detached impersonal love of humanity whereas Leo is very much connected to personal love. 
We continue to work with the Aquarian energy as it’s a balancing act between Leo and Aquarius where we’re incorporating more Leo energy into our world. We take the best from the past and evolve that energy by consciously working with the North Node energy.
 
This is very much about evolving the air energy of Aquarius, the mental energy through igniting our spirits with the fire of Leo, the light of the Sun. We’ll be fired up with our divine spirit, the light of our hearts.  Who knows what will emerge over the next 18 months with these two energies working together!

 
Sabian Symbols for the Moon’s nodes from 10th to 15th May:  From Lynda Hill www.sabiansymbols.com
 
Leo 30
AN UNSEALED LETTER HAS VITAL AND CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION
This Symbol shows a message that is, or needs to be, spread either by writing it down or speaking it. There can, at times, be a desire to reveal one’s inner feelings; however the opposite can also be true; you may feel very confronted by the thought of wearing your heart on your sleeve. However you transmit this ‘Vital and Confidential Information’, it needs to be done from the heart and with integrity. When this is done the right people can see and benefit from it. Be aware of sharing information that isn’t yours to share or that breaks confidentiality with someone who trusts you. Communicating in a trusting, carefree, easy way. Ideas, thoughts and emotions exposed through being too trusting. Shared thoughts and feelings. “Dear John” letters. Diaries. 

Aquarius 30
MOONLIT FIELDS, ONCE BABYLON, ARE BLOOMING WHITE
This Symbol shows learning from the past, possibly great civilizations like “Babylon”, and taking the seeds from the past and making even greater achievements in your own time and place. Even though the grandeur of the past may be lost, changed or damaged by war or time, the energy and power remains. This Symbol reflects the permanence of the natural essence of a place, a person, an idea or a civilization. You may feel that you are in the right place at the right time. Your best qualities are recognized and appreciated. When you are following a true path, you are able to rely on the support of the universe in its flow. Rewards coming from efforts of past generations. Ancestors surrounding. Seeds of the past becoming the fruits of the present. The middle east. Fruits of culture. Artifacts. 


11th May:  
Full Moon in Scorpio at 20 degrees 24 Scorpio 7.42 am AEST
’live and let die’!
 
The Scorpio Full Moon:  The bat energy is our guide out of the cave!
This week brings the promise of more clarity as the Scorpio Full Moon delivers us into the energy of completion and culmination of so much old energy.  If anything has to be released, has been resistant to the letting go process, the Full Moon will be the breaking point which has come to our assistance.
 
Emotional death and rebirth:  Emergence of unresolved emotions and healing!
The Scorpio Full Moon is the ultimate death and transformation energy. It brings up deep emotional energies buried within our memory banks and psyche.
 
All those emotions which have been building up in us, held in by some misguided belief that we need to ‘hang on’, ‘hang in’ and everything will come good, are now being forced out of the ‘cave’ where we’ve been hunkered down trying to protect ourselves from the imminent change.

 
Scorpio do and/or die energies:  Whatever has to go, has to go!
There’s no holding back now!  Just sit back and hand over to the higher self, the bat energy which is an expert in hanging out and seeing the world from a different perspective!
 
Just let go of the need to control:  It’s happening!
Scorpio rules death, transformation and rebirth.  This energy assists us in letting go of old energies when they are past their use by date.  The life/death/rebirth cycle is a necessary part of the continuation of our growth and expansion as individuals and as a planet.



 
What beliefs do you hold about money:  
It’s transformation time...magic happens!
Scorpio rules the 8th house of intimacy and money which comes from ‘partnerships’ whether from intimate connections or from systems and organisations such as insurance companies, tax departments. 
 
This is connected with money which is not earned so could be legacies, inheritance. Be open to unusual channels bringing our spiritual ‘inheritance’.
 
Can you feel the parting of the ways:  Mind over matter!  Here we come out of the cave of transformation into the light!
The Scorpio Full Moon asks us how we choose to continue living on the earth as it faces off to the earthy Taurus ruled Sun.  We’re at a crossroads of choice to continue in the struggle energy of the past or forging ahead with new vistas and the establishment of new visions in the earthly realm.
 
This full Moon is asking us to drop any illusions that the problems in the world can be changed at the levels of government, big business or bureaucracies.   Accept that the change is starting with us at the grassroots level if we want societies which are based on the ethical basic principles of equity, justice, love and acceptance.
 
As we choose new ways of living we leave behind the old paradigm.  We’re being asked to let go of trying to change the world in the old pattern of direct engagement with it. If so many scientists are saying that statistically the earth and its life forms is beyond help now then it’s definitely a call to those of us who believe we can create reality and are practising with the development of these energies in our minds, bodies, spirits and our earthly lives. 
 
We’re being challenged to create a new world by engagement with our visions and imagination, building those visions in our mind’s eye.  This is especially the case at this full moon when Mercury, mind manager is working with the higher mental consciousness of Uranus.  We’re being offered new perspectives for our individual and collective lives as our third eye chakra opens wider to the bigger picture.
 
Other planetary energies at this Full Moon:  One tree dies or regenerates whilst another flourishes!  
Scorpio Moon opposite Taurus Sun!
Pluto, Lord of death playing a significant role at this time:
Pluto 19 degrees Capricorn trine Taurus Sun, sextile Scorpio Moon:
Pluto is the ruler of Scorpio known as the dark lord of the underworld and of transformation and here he is in a positive flowing energies with both the Full Moon and Sun.  Pluto’s in a long term transit of Capricorn, sign of tradition, the status quo and big organisations, governments and rules and regulations. 
 
The house of cards is definitely crumbling even if we can’t see the full import at the global level.  This is acting on us personally helping us to step out of comfort zones.  We want global change but are finding it challenging to enact this at the personal level.  It’s human nature. We also want to stay comfortable, safe and secure whilst wanting global changes.
 
The energies at this Full Moon are activating and enhancing our spiritual power to move beyond the craziness of the world ‘out there’ and to build visions of lives based on values of equity, justice and most of all love and acceptance. We start with our individual ‘world’ and then bring that to the outer world connecting with like minded others to create something worthwhile in our world.  The relevance of that old adage ‘think global, act local’ still applies in a whole new way. 
 
 
Mars in Gemini in trine to Jupiter in Libra:  13 degrees
From 11th to 14th May.  Exact 12th May
Mars is firing in Gemini helping us clear so much of the mental ‘clag’ and head stuff being stirred up by Mercury.  Connecting to Jupiter is offering us more expansive views and perspectives on relationships of all kinds and the opportunity to clear up old issues of inequity, injustice and conflict which are emerging from within our physical and mental bodies. Potential for unresolved criticisms, judgements, blame, shame and guilt to be brought into peace.
 
 
Mars in Gemini square Neptune in Pisces:  13 degrees
From 10th to 13th May.  Exact 12th May
A challenge to uplift spiritual mentally into a more spiritually evolved perspective.  Energies which may be arising and/or challenging may be old patterns of impatience, frustration, irritation, trying to control what is outside our control.  Mindsets are shifting big time.  Plenty of clearance happening in the head, respiratory and nervous systems with all this Gemini energy coming to the fore.
 
 
Saturn in Sagittarius still in square/challenge to Chiron in Pisces:  26/27 degrees
From 18th April to 12th May.  Exact 1st May.
Ongoing karmic release of out-dated belief systems, ideologies which are not serving our growth and expansion.  So many of these old ideologies are keeping us in servitude as we slavishly adhere to some belief system, societal rules of living which are not serving our best interests.  Creative solutions need free thinkers.

Full Sabian Symbols for the Full Moon: 
The Full Moon:  Scorpio 21
OBEYING THEIR CONSCIENCE, A SOLDIER RESISTS ORDERS
This Symbol shows someone whose “Conscience” stops them from following a certain course of action, staying with a project or relationship when they’d rather leave, or, someone not prepared to compromise their values to do something that society says they must do. You may find yourself in situations where what you are expected to do is against your inner values, your conscience or how you see your future unfolding. You may have to make the difficult choice between allegiance to duty or your own inner truth. True freedom can only be found when one faces situations with a sense of integrity and preparedness to face the consequences, be they positive or negative. Personal morality. Doing what one's conscience dictates. Longing for a return to a state of love and innocence. Love that restrains. Not following orders. Going AWOL.

The Sun opposite the Full Moon:  Taurus 21
A MOVING FINGER POINTS TO SIGNIFICANT PASSAGES IN A BOOK
This Symbol points to going by the book and taking things as rules to be lived or taking things literally. You may feel that you know all about life, or that you need to learn all about it. You could feel as though you have read the book on life. There are, however, finer details that you may have missed and you may need to look again. There is a clear indication that you could look for something outside of yourself for clues on how to live or how to be. However, be discriminating about what is really significant. Find the essential details of a situation and disregard the rest. Looking for clues. Reading significant pieces of writing. Instruction manuals. Lawyers and the law. Oracles and synchronicities. Reading passages that reflect life. Memories.

That’s it folks!  
We’re on our way out of the Scorpio cave flying together through this powerful rebirthing time!  If you’re feeling highly strung, nervous, tetchy and/or exhausted, overwhelmed by the energies just believe we’re getting major planetary downloads.  I’ve only touched on a few major ones but the changes are extensive and guiding us all the way to go with this energy of change at our cellular level.
 
We’re all dying to the old and preparing the way for new energies to emerge. Just remember to keep an open mind and heart and allow the insights to flood in during a moment of peace, contemplation and stillness.  Let’s remember that the Full Moon energies are acting on us 3 days before and 3 days after the moon comes to exact fullness.  Those full moon energies are our guiding force for the release process over the next 2 weeks until the New Moon in Gemini. 
 
Hugs all around!
 
I thought the lemurs may be a good motif for us with their black/white colouring and their capacity to hang upside down, like a bat.  May be a little but more cuddly than the bat. 
 
Love and blessings to all as we proceed with hope in our hearts and minds looking beyond the world turmoil in deep faith and trust that we can create a better world starting with us!
 
I’ve doubled up some of the information above but I’m leaving it as was feeling too addled to change it all. Life!
 
Two images for me this week...
how I’ve been feeling with the downloads and release
 
 
 
and the spiritual power I’m invoking:
 
 
Helen
 
from the chair
 
 
 

 
It’s all about love
We’re all in this together
