Full Moon in Scorpio- May 1, 2026- Astrology by Melody
Scorpio is connected to the 8th house, which is all about secrecy and the unseen. This makes this Full Moon an ideal time to practice shadow work. The shadow self is a counterpoint to the light, the side that has been repressed or unseen. It can also be seen as an unconscious aspect of your personality that the conscious ego does not identify. Here are some other ways you can practice shadow work:
· Review your childhood memories.
· Write a letter to your shadow introducing yourself and let it know this is a safe space.
· Once you become aware of your shadow self, don’t shame, or blame it.
· Be compassionate with yourself and your experiences, this is a time for healing and self-growth.
Let’s take a more in-depth look at the overall energy, attributes, and themes you can expect for the Full Moon in Scorpio, along with the major planetary aspects that the Moon and some of the planets will be making on this day.
