This month's Full Moon in tropical Scorpio is also the first Supermoon of 2021. The Moon will appear notably larger than usual, especially when rising or setting near objects on the horizon. Expect also a potential augmentation of the psychic/emotional landscape.

Scorpio, too, is a water sign. A trine between the Full Moon and Mars in Cancer also amplifies the watery archetype, increasing sensitivity and awareness of perceptions that lie beneath our logical/rational faculties. At least for a few days, feelings will pervade.

As this Full Moon peaks, it correlates with a culmination, breakthrough, or crisis involving the Scorpionic dimension: experiences of deep intimacy, vulnerability, and authenticity as well as sexual, emotional, and psychic intensity. Anything subjugated, repressed, or hidden can also suddenly emerge during a Scorpio Full Moon.

To add to the complexity inherent to the Scorpio archetype is a t-square involving an opposition from Uranus and a square from Saturn. Uranus adds the "unexpected" and a desire to break with past restrictions while Saturn pushes for growth and conservatism.

There are several conflicts within this Full Moon between complexity/simplicity and revolution/preservation. The challenge lies in strengthening our position while also mindfully moving through paradoxical feelings and emotions.

While Saturn can help pull back excessive or unfocused rebelliousness, it can also direct radical impulses toward constructive pursuits and endeavors. And as the Sun aligns with Uranus over the next few days, expect the desire for change and liberation to become increasingly louder.

With this lunation, listen and speak from the heart and step deeper into the emotional dimension to feel your way through to a new way of life. A lot can shift alongside this lunation, no matter how subtle, so remain open and surrender to the changes emerging now. While frustrations can quickly arise, they will likely dissipate over the next week as we move to a slighter, calmer vibe.
