- 2:50and practice active listening to experience breakthroughs.
- 2:54Mars in Aries is also square Jupiter in Cancer, and this aspect brings us great
- 3:00energy, ambition, and motivation.
- 3:03This can also be very attractive energy for those of us seeking romantic experiences or social connection.
- 3:10On the downside, this aspect can bring impatience, tactlessness, and impulsiveness.
- 3:17This definitely is not a good time to seek out fights or go on offensive.
- 3:22If possible, avoid engaging in interactions that you already know might be intense or difficult.
- 3:31Some Scorpio correspondences that you can use to connect with the energy of this full moon.

- 3:58The Tarot Major Arcana card of Scorpio is Death, number 13.
- 4:05This card signifies big life changes, endings, finality, release and letting
- 4:12go of the past, and personal transformation.
- 4:17Here are some suggestions for Scorpio full moon rituals.
- 4:23Fill a mason jar or a clear bottle of purified water outside,
- 4:27under the moonlight, to make moon water.
- 4:30Take a spiritual bath with salts for a water-based cleansing ritual to dissolve negative energy.
- 4:37Do protection rituals, such as psychic self-protection and warding rituals.
- 4:44Do cleansings, smudgings, or cord-cutting rituals. Light a red or purple candle
- 4:51and set intentions for your personal power and transformation.
- 4:58Beltane. This full moon is also a pagan Sabbath.
- 5:04The final spring festival of the year, Beltane, always falls on the first day
- 5:10of May, or as it is more commonly known today, on May Day.
- 5:16Beltane originates from old traditions of Celtic pre-Christian cultures.
- 5:22Beltane is believed by many traditions to be a critical period when the bounds
- 5:26between the human and supernatural worlds are temporarily erased.
- 5:31In old folklore, on May Eve, April 30th, witches and fairies roamed freely,
- 5:38and measures had to be taken against their enchantments.
- 5:42Like Samhain, Beltane was a time when the veil to the other world thinned and
- 5:49spirits could pass through.
- 5:51But unlike Samhain, the visiting spirits were not seeking a meal or a short visit with family.
- 5:58The spirits wandering at Beltane were believed to be looking for a good time with human folk.
- 6:04More famously, Beltane is a fertility festival, and it celebrates divine sexual and creative energy.
- 6:14Historically, this was reflected in rituals like the Great Rite,
- 6:18symbolizing the union of the goddess and the god modern practitioners often
- 6:24celebrate by planting seeds creating art or engaging in acts of self-love and
- 6:30partnership to manifest growth and abundance in their lives.
- 6:35On May the 3rd, Mercury enters Taurus.
- 6:39During this transit, expect moods and communications to stabilize as our collective
- 6:45focus shifts towards practical problem-solving and finding long-term stability.
- 6:50On May 5th, Mars will square Jupiter.
- 6:54This aspect provides a surge of energy and enthusiasm, but it carries a risk of overconfidence.
- 7:02To successfully manage this aspect, Channel any excess energy into productive
- 7:07activities or creative projects while making a conscious effort to avoid direct
- 7:12confrontation and tense situations.
- 7:17We also have Mercury Square Pluto on this day.
- 7:21This transit encourages deep thinking, research, and investigation,
- 7:25perhaps revealing secrets or bringing hidden information to light.
- 7:30It is a powerful time for personal willpower and decisive action,
- 7:35but it's important to stay mindful of the shadow side.
- 7:39Watch out for manipulation, deception, or obsessive behaviors from yourself
- 7:45or from other people. as there is an increased risk of conflicts and intense
- 7:50arguments during this period.
- 7:53On May 6, Pluto turns retrograde.
- 7:57Pluto stations retrograde for about half the year, typically spanning from late
- 8:02April and early May through October.
- 8:05This retrograde initiates a period of profound inner transformation and introspection,
- 8:11often prompted by past external drama or conflict.
- 8:15For the first time in about 228 years, Pluto retrogrades in Aquarius this summer.
- 8:23This rare shift will compel deep psychological excavation, redirecting our collective
- 8:30focus from broad societal changes towards radical individual transformation.
- 8:36Prepare to re-evaluate power dynamics, technological advancements,
- 8:42and your own unique roles within your community, as this transit will likely
- 8:47resurrect and resolve long-standing related issues.
- 8:52On May 16th, we will have a new moon in Taurus and Mars conjunct Chiron.
- 9:00This new moon serves as a sacred portal for a spiritual reset and manifestations
- 9:07of stability, offering a unique
- 9:09opportunity to transform past wounds into personal power and resilience.
- 9:14Be mindful of impulsive reactions or internal struggles regarding insecurity,
- 9:21self-worth, and core values.
- 9:25On May 17th, we have Mercury entering Gemini.
- 9:28Now that Mercury is at home in his ruling sign, Gemini, expect a general acceleration
- 9:36in the pace and volume of communications and chatty collective vibes.
- 9:41Communications take on a more playful and lighthearted, perhaps even flirty, tone.
- 9:47So exercise discernment, because not all incoming information and messages should
- 9:52be trusted during this season.
- 9:58On May 18th, Mars enters Taurus. This transit brings us a welcome relief from
- 10:04the volatile and impulsive energy that defined the Mars and Aries season.
- 10:09Collective temperaments and moods begin to stabilize and find a steady rhythm
- 10:14now, and our collective focus transitions towards practical problem-solving
- 10:19and establishing long-term consistent stability.
- 10:23On May 19th, Venus Enters Cancer.

- 10:38as well as a greater need for genuine connection and comfort.

- 10:49and it might even be a time to begin a beautiful new chapter with someone special.

- 11:23On May 22nd, we have Venus Square Neptune.
- 11:27This transit may cloud your emotional judgment, particularly regarding romance and personal finances.
- 11:35On a brighter note, this energy is ideal for spiritual connection,
- 11:39artistic pursuits, or for simply enjoying some restorative time alone.
- 11:45Exercise caution, though, because there is an increased risk of deception,
- 11:50manipulation, or general relationship chaos during this period.
- 11:55On May 26th, we have Mars Square Pluto.
- 11:59Exercise caution regarding impulsive aggression and intense power struggles,
- 12:05whether coming from within or from those around you.
- 12:08Watch out for news involving direct confrontations, potential violence,
- 12:14or the sudden exposure of serious scandals and misconduct.
