16 degrees and 1 minute of Scorpio
May will certainly prove to be one of the most potent months in 2012. May Day was celebrated as “Global Love Day” and this current Super Scorpio Full Moon will be celebrated by millions around the world as “World Liberation Day,” and both are followed by Venus turning retrograde on the 15th and the first Solar Eclipse of 2012 on the 19th—WOW! The last two cosmic events of this month are sure to unveil dramatic financial and social political actions which I’ll write more about in my next Astro-Gram.
The Moon moves into Scorpio at 7:20 p.m. PT on Friday evening, whereby many of us will begin to experience Scorpio’s intensity–externally and internally. This lunation cycle has the potential to unexpectedly illuminate hidden agendas and encourage long overdue transformation. If this is the case for you, draw upon the powerful energy of Scorpio to transmute and transform.
Scorpio is feminine in nature and symbolizes the element of water. Its spiritual essence is symbolized by the divine shakti—energy and power—which is recognized as the many faces of the divine feminine. In the Hindu tradition the divine shakti is known as the divine mother, the universal creator, destroyer of evil and sustainer of all life. Her many faces are acknowledged as Kali, Durga, and the only female companion of Lord Shiva—Parvati. The divine union of Shiva and Parvati is symbolic of the powerful merger of equality between the sacred feminine and masculine.
Scorpio encourages us to embrace the mysteries of death and rebirth. Cycles of darkness eventually awaken us to the wisdom of enlightenment that result from going deep within. If you find yourself stuck in a defeating karmic cycle or have allowed yourself to become disempowered in any area of your life then embrace this potent “Super” Scorpio Full Moon as a powerful time to shift and heal any self-defeating behavior patterns so you can transform and give birth to new, self-empowered and liberated aspects of YOU!
