Scorpio Full Moon

In astrology, the Moon relates to the unseen realms within us—our emotions, sensitivities, inner landscapes, and memories held by our bodies.  As she reaches her fullness, all of her shines on display. She then begins releasing. Letting go. Waning. Allowing herself to become smaller and smaller in the night sky. She has surrendered to her own transformation.

Similarly, the full Moon in Scorpio meeting us on May 12, 2025, asks for our surrender, letting go, and release into our inevitable transformation. While in Scorpio, the Moon hums with emotion and intimacy, transformation and depth. It asks for vulnerability, presence, and truth—both with the moment at hand and all that lives within us. It is under this expression of the Moon that we are invited to rebirth ourselves.

The upcoming lunation sits next to Uranus although Pluto and Mercury also bring their presence. This celestial dance symbolizes self-reclamation, transmuting unconsciousness into consciousness, liberation, empowerment, and alchemy. It is simply, yet powerfully, a mirror for these themes that are stirring within each of us and asking to be surrendered to and set free.

Uranus Cazimi 

This week we meet our only Uranus cazimi of the year on May 17, 2025. A cazimi, which takes place on a singular day, is the intimate dance of the Sun and surrounding planets. On this day and in this moment, Uranus connects with the Sun and becomes infused with its vitality, life-affirming essence, and inspiration. It is reborn.

The Uranus within each of us is the self that yearns for and requires liberation and expansion. It is the innate need within each of us to explore new ideas and vast possibilities, to break open existing structures, and to weave potential into everyday life. It is our most non-conformist, innovative, revolutionary, creative, and inner rebel self.

On this day, innovative ideas and heightened intuition are on offer. There is a cracking open, a breaking free of stagnancy, and liberation of limitation become available. We remember that we are the vessels for evolution and potential to flow through. It’s a time for meditation, journaling, envisioning, and spaces or activities that align the mind with the larger universal mind. To remember the mind as an antenna, a funnel, a part of the cosmos itself.

Weekly Horoscope, May 11-17, 2025

Liberation calls your name this week with surrender and trust acting as doorways into your depths, empowerment, and truth.  There is more of you waiting within your unconscious depths, as mirrored by the Scorpio full Moon. There is more of you waiting in the vastness of potential and in breaking free of outdated structures, as mirrored by Uranus cazimi.

The days ahead are not subtle in their influence. It is simply a matter of unclenching your hands and letting something vaster and deeper within take the wheel. The more safety you can create in your body, the more life you can let into your days and the greater trust you can welcome into your beliefs, the more empowering and graceful your journey. Your weekly horoscope for May 11-17, 2025, explains more. Read for your rising sign.

Aries Rising

Old narratives of worthiness, strength, and vulnerability are ready to be released. Meet your depth. Meet your truth. Meet your fears that says you aren’t enough, you aren’t strong, and you aren’t worthy of love. They hold no truth. You are ready to remember this.

Taurus Rising

You are transforming. Plant your feet on the ground, let your old identities fall, allow the walls around your heart to crumble, and let your truth exist freely through you. Let yourself become love.

Gemini Rising

A beautiful paradox calls for your awareness. Ground into your body and you will find liberation. Commit to your humanness and you will find expanded creativity. Anchor downward and you will be able to expand higher. This week brings about inspiration and change through your commitment to self.

Cancer Rising

There is a creative essence desiring to move through you. An expression of the sacred that is accessible only through you. It’s a week to face any fears, voices, or emotions that cause you to suppress, dim, or hide this energy. In the process, you liberate yourself.

Leo Rising

The nurturance of your roots dictates the height of your branches. This week invites you to tend to your soil—your emotional currents and the memories within your psyche—so that your dreams can flourish.

Virgo Rising 

This week invites you to travel to the depths of your underworld and the heights of the cosmos. Before you explore the unseen realms of your psyche and the vastness of universal consciousness, face the old fears and narratives that hold you back so that you can access possibility.

Libra Rising

This week invites the transformation and liberation, empowerment and freedom that awaits within your body. It sits within the emotional currents, the intelligence of your fascia, the memories within your nervous system. The days ahead invite greater inner security, strength, intimacy, and trust in yourself.

Scorpio Rising

It is your week. A week to meet your depths as well as your next cycle. To surrender into yourself, to dissolve into the whispers of your heart as it leads you through transformation. Understanding who you are in this world is about to begin.

Sagittarius Rising

Pull back the veil and commune with the unseen, the sacred, the silence, and the love permeating all things. It’s a week to remember yourself as a bridge for the intangible and tangible, the sacred and human. Life is whispering to you, whether through prayer, meditation, breath, or movement.

Capricorn Rising

Surrender to possibility and open yourself to acting as a channel for vaster ideas, potentials, and inspiration that is calling your name. Whether through visioning, creative expression, or journaling, may you open yourself to collaboration.

Aquarius Rising

This week asks you to meet yourself so authentically that you have the courage to break free from inherited emotions, fears, and patterns within your body and psyche. It also supports you in releasing yourself from any voices, inner or outer, that doubt your way, strength, and authority.

Pisces Rising

Greater depths and heights are becoming available to you as stronger medicine and wisdom are moving through your awareness and your voice. As you use your mind and voice to support this transition—whether through journaling, speaking, singing, or chanting—try to release your outdated narratives and remain open to vast new possibilities.
