Full Moon in Scorpio, May 17, 2011

© Diane Lang

What a difference a month makes! On the Full Moon last month, the sky was dominantly cardinal and Aries, and now this Full Moon at 26° 13′ Scorpio on 17 May 2011 at 4:09 AM PDT, the fixed signs and earth are on top.

Those who were able to make the most of the inspiration and enthusiasm of the Aries sky and who are ready to get down to work in a practical and focused manner will prosper now. For those who ignored Saturn in Libra’s suggestions for taking the moderate approach and insisted [...]

Scorpio Full Moon, April 28, 2010

This Full Moon at 8° 06′ Scorpio on April 28, 2010 at 5:19AM PDT packs a powerful punch due in large part to the T-square the Sun and Moon form with Mars in Leo – all in intractable fixed signs. Those who have planets or Angles at 7-12° Aquarius, creating a Grand Cross, are most likely to take a direct hit.

The Sun in Taurus is also exactly conjoined retrograde Mercury in Taurus and both are square Mars in Leo, creating potentially explosive tempers. Taurus does NOT like to be rushed into anything and if [...]

Scorpio – The Power to Transform

It is Scorpio season once more and there is a bite in the air. The Sun has entered my twelfth house with Mercury to follow on Wednesday and I find myself contemplating Scorpio’s signature ability of transformation in relation to the Neptune/twelfth house problem of addiction and dependency.

Even with all my twelfth house planets, supposedly a sure sign of a weakness for drugs and alcohol, I am not an addictive personality. That is not to say I haven’t been addicted to various things over the years because I have. I smoked cigarettes for over twenty [...]

Full Moon in Scorpio, May 8-9, 2009

Wesak Full Moon

The Full Moon in Scorpio on May 9 seems pregnant with possibilities, as if we are standing on the edge of the precipice waiting for a signal to leap off. But with Mercury retrograde until May 31 and Saturn at a virtual standstill, actual movement is not likely.

The elements are evenly balanced in this chart, underscoring the sense of stasis. Saturn in Virgo is the handle of the bucket pattern. Saturn is preparing to station direct on May 16 and will remain at 14° Virgo from May 8 until May 26. Virgo is always happy to double-check the details, [...]

Full Moon in Scorpio Cycle Reflections

As the Full Moon in Scorpio cycle is winding up there are a couple of lessons that hopefully have been pounded into my head. Since Scorpio runs from the cusp of my 12th house into my 1st (with Taurus on the 6th into the 7th), my lessons are reflecting that axis.

First, it was brought home to me ONE MORE TIME, it is important to nurture one’s self and don’t take on too much. I simply can not help everyone who needs it from family to clients. It’s also called spreading one’s self to thin and no one [...]
