On Monday, we experienced the potent energy of the Scorpio Full Moon, a celestial turning point that arrives not to soothe, but to shake us awake.
Scorpio doesn’t whisper—it pierces. This moon, in all its intensity, isn’t asking for surface-level affirmations or tidy intentions. It’s asking for radical honesty, shadow work, and deep emotional excavation. It’s not here to play small—and neither are you.
Scorpio is the sign of death and rebirth, of the unseen, the taboo, the hidden wounds and powerful transformations. So when the full moon lights up this part of the sky, it becomes a spotlight on our emotional underworld—illuminating what’s been buried, ignored, or denied.
This full moon asked a simple, searing question:
What are you still carrying that no longer belongs to you?
This might be an old belief, a dysfunctional dynamic, or a legacy of emotional labor that’s been passed down generationally. For those of us doing the deep work of healing ancestral trauma, Scorpio’s invitation is powerful: Let it die. Let the versions of you that are based on survival—not sovereignty—go. Let the shame, the silence, the scarcity stories unravel.
Where Are You Settling?
This moon also asks us to look at where we are settling—not just in our careers or relationships, but in our self-worth.
Where have you convinced yourself that “this is enough” when your soul is quietly screaming for more?
Where have you minimized your dreams, gifts, or truth because you’re afraid of being “too much,” “too deep,” or “too intense”? (Scorpio says: Be intense.)
If you’re a cycle-breaker, a spiritual seeker, or someone devoted to healing what’s been inherited, you know how lonely the path can feel. But here’s the raw truth:
Settling isn’t noble. It’s soul-suffocating.
And Scorpio energy will bring this to the surface in ways that can’t be ignored—through discomfort, emotional tension, or sudden realizations. If it’s felt heavy this week, you’re not broken—you’re becoming.
Where Are You Making Yourself Small?
Let’s get real for a moment. How many times have you watered yourself down to avoid confrontation?
How often do you filter your words or dim your light because the people around you don’t understand your depth, your gifts, or your spiritual path? I have.. way too many times.
This full moon reveals where you’re still seeking approval from people who are not equipped to witness your truth.
And while it might feel safer to stay small, Scorpio reminds us that our power lives in the unfiltered expression of who we really are—not the edited version others are comfortable with.
You are not here to be digestible.
You are here to be a catalyst.
So if your intuitive gifts, your trauma healing work, or your spiritual nature has felt “too much” for others—bless them, release them, and return to yourself. Scorpio supports the sacred act of letting go of relationships, roles, and realities that require you to betray yourself to belong.
How to Work With This Moon’s Energy
Even though the full moon has technically passed, its energy lingers for days—and its messages stretch much longer.
Here are a few ways to work with it now:
- Write a Release Letter.
Pour onto paper everything you’re ready to let die—stories, identities, burdens. Burn it. Bury it. Flush it. Let it be witnessed and transmuted. - Cut Cords of Obligation.
Tune into where you feel emotionally responsible for others—especially where it feels ancestral. Visualize releasing the weight, knowing their healing is not your job. - Shadow Integration Ritual.
Ask yourself: “What parts of me have I hidden out of fear?”
Journal or speak them aloud, allowing them to come out of the shadows. Let Scorpio’s energy help you transmute shame into sovereignty. - Reclaim Your Depth.
Lean into your spiritual practices. Channel. Meditate. Speak light language. Commune with your ancestors. Allow your gifts to be fully present—even if no one else around you understands them. - Say NO to the Roles That Silence You.
Whether that’s the good girl, the peacemaker, the over-functioning mother, the healer who carries everyone—Scorpio gives you full permission to drop it. Reclaim your energetic boundaries.
This full moon is not soft. It’s sacred. It doesn’t come to comfort—it comes to clear.
And in that clearing, you have an opportunity to rise—not as a version others approve of, but as your undeniable, unedited self.
So, where are you still settling? Where are you still shrinking?
Let this moon be your reckoning. Let it be the turning point where you finally stop apologizing for your power.
Because the truth is, you were never meant to fit in. You were meant to transform everything you touch. And it begins by refusing to abandon yourself ever again.
