Scorpio Full Moon May 5 and Gemini Solar Eclipse May 20, 2012
This will be an interesting month with plenty of cosmic forces playing out in your life. Scorpio is a sign associated with intensity, deep experience of self and transformation of self-identity. This Full Moon in Scorpio reflects the extraordinary transitions we all are facing momentarily in the world. The Moon position in your personal chart describes your driving need, your inner emotional point of perception, your heart and soul. Your Moon shows your job description as a Mom, representing the Great Divine Mother, the feminine, the healer, the shepherd.
You need to live your personal Moon in order to be happy and fulfilled. Connecting with the monthly cycle of the Moon you can better understand your self and your emotional tides, to be pro-active and happily in the flow of the cosmic energies.
This Full Moon is also one of the five Super Moons this year, where the moon is closer to the earth and thus intensifying the electro-magnetic gravitational pull on all of us. Be ready for some changes and high tides.

Emotional intensity will impact you especially around the Full Moon. The Scorpio Moon is opposing the Sun in Taurus and compels us to question our beliefs about money, security and the meaning of life. The God of the underworld, Pluto, is opposing Venus this month. Venus, the Goddess of love, harmony and beauty is approaching her retrograde phase (May 15 to June 27). A retrograde planet calls upon us to re-assess its attributes and promotes a more inward motion. With that, repressed material and issues with your family and your relationships might pop up to be seen.
If you feel overwhelmed, make sure you get help and support through counseling or an astrological reading in order to get a higher perspective into what needs healing and transformation. Remember, the key to inner and outer success is the state of your consciousness.
A Solar Eclipse in Gemini
In a Solar Eclipse the electro- magnetic flow from the Sun to the earth is interrupted and momentarily blocked by the Moon. You can think of it as a reloading of your consciousness with new templates and an updated version of new software, better qualified to handle the evolving future. We can think of a Solar Eclipse as a reconfiguration of consciousness, upon which most of us can agree is needed very badly at this time on this planet. Even if we cannot seem to agree on solutions yet, the grumbling is getting louder and the mismanagement of our guardianship for the planet and each other is becoming so obvious.
The Solar Eclipse in Gemini is symbolizing the learning we gain through the exploration of duality. Gemini is associated with intelligence, the development of communication, interaction and social skills. It is the scientific, objective view of the world with what works and what doesn’t. Adding to that Neptune squaring Sun and Moon, we need to integrate our visions, dreams and wisdom and thus the uplifting and healing qualities of the heart.
Neptune in Pisces brings us hope and compassion through emphasizing the heart and our oneness. WE ARE THE PEOPLE, we are powerful and we will bring about the change for a better world. We are in good company with folks like Martin Luther King, Mahatma Gandhi and other figureheads of a peaceful but nevertheless unstoppable wave of change.
