Aries - Queen of Coins // Learn
This Full Moon occurs in your 8th house of house of sex, death, and other people’s money, and it’s a beautiful opportunity to get deep and intimate with these themes. The Taurus-Scorpio polarity explores the process that transforms life into death, death into life. It’s a polarity of the body: Taurus is about the creation of bodies, while Scorpio is about the composting of bodies . The Queen of Coins (Pentacles) invites you to explore the cycle in your own. What is being released and shed right now? What does your body want to teach you about pleasure, sex and taboo?

Taurus - The Chariot // Pleasure
Your ruling planet, Venus, has just come home to Taurus, running smack dab into Uranus, which entered your first house back in March. It’s not easy having the planet of revolution enter your sign. Uranus is revolutionizing your identity, the way you present yourself to the world, and how other people view you. Venus is the planet of pleasure, relationships and the things/people we value. This Full Moon, Venus wants you to use pleasure as your guide as your identity undergoes a dramatic overhaul. The Chariot showing up on the Scorpio Full Moon invites you to step out of the confines of your old identity. Let go of what isn’t serving you. It’s time to step out of your chariot and walk.

Gemini – 5 of Swords // Pause
This Full Moon is shining a spotlight on all the places you feel competitive, judgemental, and critical — especially about yourself. Maybe you’re feeling like you’re behind everyone else, you’re comparing yourself to your peers and coming up short. This Full Moon and transition into Gemini season is the perfect time to dive into these feelings. Stop, breathe and pause. Feel it the contraction: don’t shove it away, don’t distract yourself. Scorpio is a water sign; it is connected to intense feelings and emotions. This can be tough for logical Air signs like Gemini. You can’t escape the undertow today. You just have to let it take you down and spit you out. HAVE FUN!

Cancer – 7 of Coins // Teach
Sometimes, growth is hard to see. Roots grow in darkness, growing deep and down long before we see any sign of flower and fruit. Sometimes, we don’t want to wait – we just want the thing to be here, now, ripe for the taking. This is true of anything: planting a garden, doing deep psychological healing, forming a new habit, a new relationship. Right now, things are growing, but it might not feel like it. This Moon reveals so much about what you have to offer the world in terms of creativity, passion and sharing your unique gifts. Write down what you’re working on, what you’re growing. On the next New Moon in Scorpio, look at this list and see how far you’ve come.

Leo – 6 of Cups // Ask
Emotions are potent today, as the Full Moon highlights your home, family, ancestry, origins and legacy, and the 6 of Cups invites you dive head first into your feelings about it all. 6 of Cups isn’t all nostalgia and family. It’s about the exchange of emotions, the give and take with those around you, how you were nurtured and how you nurture others. What were you taught about love and family and your emotions? Where are you being called to question or interrogate these lessons? Exploring these themes can be triggering or resurface past traumas. Take care of yourself today, my darling Leo, and remember that you don’t need to spend a full moon revisiting old wounds. The opportunity is there if you want it, but re-watching Jane the Virgin is also a valid way to celebrate.

Virgo - Ace of Swords // Forgive
Virgo, you are no stranger to the power of words, but today’s Full Moon brings with it power potential to deepen your relationships and communication with the people in your life who feel like family. The Scorpio full moon brings you ideas, sparks and the gift of new ways of thinking and communication. Take the opportunity to release old resentments and to start fresh. In the words of Jessica Lanyadoo, forgiveness isn’t letting people off the hook - it’s taking the hook out of your own heart. Where can you release the hooks? Every day is the start of a new cycle. Ace of Swords is here to support you in creating a new way of thinking and relating to the world around you.

Libra - 5 of Cups // Meditation
This weekend, your relationship to resources - your sense of security, your ability to gain, your sense of lack - has the potential to trigger an emotional response. Remember, Libra, we can’t control our emotional reactions to things. We can’t rationalize away tears (even though I know you’ll want to try). When these emotions rise up in you, pay attention to the central trigger at the heart of them. What is your relationship to things, stuff, material goods, valuable objects? This Full Moon, try not to focus on the things you don’t have, or the things you haven’t yet achieved. What are some parts of your life that you haven’t been appreciating? Send those parts some love, sweet Libra. You’ll feel better.

Scorpio - The Star, RX // Acceptance
Healing isn’t linear, my dear scorpion. This Full Moon is shining brightly on your identity, the self that you present to the world, the way people see you. For the past six months, the relationship between Self and Other has been an important theme, played out over the Taurus-Scorpio polarity. Who are you in relation to others? As you step into a new cycle of growth and release, of shedding old skins and taking on new identities, remember to fill your own cup up first. Accepting where you are in your process and cycle is one of the hardest things to do. Let this moon reveal the places inside you that need your attention, your love and your kindness.

Sagittarius - The Devil // Embrace
The Devil is a frequently misunderstood card. Following Lindsay Mack’s teaching of it, I read the Devil as a sign that you are doing everything right. You are growing. You are healing. You are exploring your psyche and your past wounds and childhood trauma and you are making great progress. The Devil shows up because all of this progress is terrifying for our egos, and our old habits flare up so that we are forced to confront and move past them. This is never easy. Whatever the Full Moon brings up for you, remember that you are loved, you are supported. Fall into the embrace of the people who love you.

Capricorn - The High Priestess RX // Through
Scorpio moons tend to inspire deep reflection and inner work. The night of and the days surrounding a Full Moons are a beautiful opportunity to get quiet, dive deep and work with your inner High Priestess. This card, ruled by the Moon, invites us into our own power as intuitive channels. Working with our inner High Priestess can be challenging, as the more we want it, the less available she feels. The trick is to let go of expectations and let her come to you. This energy has something to teach you about how to access your inner High Priestess, your own personal, unique way of accessing that deep, watery energy.

Aquarius - 4 of Pentacles, RX // Discover
Your work, public roles and career is being highlighted this weekend, as is your relationship to resources and security. It could be related to money, it could be related to your home and sense of place, it could be related to your body, or it could be your thought patterns/narratives around all of the above. Whatever is being triggered for you right now, you’re being invited to take a step back and evaluate the situation. Where are you losing energy? Where are you doing work that isn’t fulfilling? Where do you feel drained? Where do you need to let go of control? This full moon is a beautiful time to journal and/or do spell work around these themes.

Pisces - Queen of Cups, RX // Share
This Full Moon is highlighting your big ideas and grand philosophies. What message do you have to share with the world? What have you learned through your travels in the world, your higher education, your personal beliefs and philosophy? This would be a perfect time to share them with the world, whether it’s be doing some writing, painting or simply telling a story. The Queen of Cups reversed can sometimes mean we’re struggling to get quiet or connect to ourselves. Use the story as an entry point to sharing yourself with those around you. Trust that whoever needs your medicine will find you.
