Hello Reader,
The Scorpio Full Moon will peak at 10:23 AM PST. I caught a glimpse last night out my window, and I am sure that she will be larger than life for the next few days. We’ll bask in her illumination in our night sky and her energy, both fierce and tender. This is a sacred time, one that invites us to look deeply at what we’ve been carrying, what no longer serves us, and what deserves our devotion moving forward.

I have experienced how the Scorpio Full Moon calls us to reclaim our power. There is a quality of fierce clarity that arrives with this moon to examine the invisible contracts we’ve made with others, the energy we’ve extended beyond our own capacity to give, and the boundaries we’ve let soften in the name of loyalty or love.
This full moon also whispers a gentler invitation. It invites us to turn our attention inward and ask, “What do I need to feel nourished right now? What would it feel like to fill my own cup the way I long to fill others’?”

The Energy of Release and Reclamation
There is a cycle within every full moon, and the Scorpio moon is particularly potent for recognizing what is ready to fall away. Not everything that leaves us is a loss. Sometimes what we release makes space for what we truly need to arrive.
Under this moon, your body may be telling you things your mind is not ready to hear. Listen. The answers live in your nervous system, in the sensations that arise when you sit quietly with a difficult truth. Your body is wiser than your thinking mind.
Power dynamics may be surfacing in your relationships right now, both intimate and professional. This is not a time to ignore what feels off. This is a time to notice where you’ve lost yourself in service to another, and to gently, firmly, reclaim your own authority.
A Somatic Practice for Clarity and Release
Settle into a comfortable seat. Feel your feet on the floor, your spine aligned. Place one hand on your heart and one on your belly.
Take a long breath in through your nose. As you exhale, let a sigh move through you, releasing whatever feels heavy in this moment. You might sigh, groan, or simply breathe with intention. There is no wrong way to do this.
Repeat this for five to seven breaths. With each exhale, imagine releasing what is not yours to carry. With each inhale, imagine drawing in the clarity you need to know what is true for you right now.
A Ritual for Nourishment
If you have a favorite tea, a piece of dark chocolate, or an aromatic you love, gather it now. Sit with intention and ask yourself, “What does my body need me to choose for it right now?” It might be rest. It might be movement. It might be gentleness or fierce action.
Honor that knowing. One conscious choice is an act of reclamation. One moment of nourishing yourself the way you long to be nourished is a rebellion against the culture that demands you pour from an empty cup.
May this Scorpio Full Moon show you what is ready to be released. May it illuminate the boundaries that ask to be honored. May you find the courage to reclaim your power, and the tenderness to nourish yourself as you move forward.
The veil is thin. Trust what you sense.
All is one.
A Deeper Dive with Cara Busaker, Guest Astrologist.
Cara explores the Scorpio Full Moon, Beltane, and the raw alchemy that unfolds when we face the truths we’ve been holding in the dark.

“If we are willing to dig deep and stir up the murky mud in our root systems to find the emotional items that want to be seen, felt, heard, and witnessed, true alchemy and healing potential is possible. When we face the raw truths, even if they are uncomfortable, we can release the hold and stagnant energy by shining the light of the sun back at them with love, acceptance, gratitude, and patience.”
