Full Moon in Scorpio- April 27, 2021- Embrace your Shadow Self.

Scorpio is ruled by Pluto and Mars and is connected to the 8th house of the zodiac. When there is a Full Moon in Scorpio, the energy is intense and powerful.  Pluto is often associated with the underworld and darkness. Mars can be associated with trauma and aggressiveness. The former and the latter often have many negative connotations associated with them. However, these traits and instances in our lives can also be a huge part of our growing and evolving spiritually. This brings us to the subject of shadow work.

 The Full Moon in Scorpio provides us with an opportune time to practice shadow work, as shadow work can help you to let go of past wounds, hurts, and traumas in your life up until now.  It you set too high of expectations that everything along your journey is mean to be smooth sailing and “love and light”, you can easily set yourself up for massive disappointment. It is important to remember that part of your healing journey involves you exploring and coming to terms with some of the deepest and darkest parts of yourself.  Learning how to balance your shadow self with love and light is the way to truly maximize your true potential on your journey.  Being too far on either side can be bad and can actually prevent you from doing the work necessary to connect to your highest good. Stive to not be afraid of the dark. Embrace it, become aware of it, and work with it.
