If you’re seeing red near midnight on May 15/16, 2022 you will likely be witnessing the Total Scorpio Full Blood Moon Lunar Eclipse, putting on its own spectacular show in the sky.
Get Ready, this full Moon will be a Super Moon and coincide with a total lunar eclipse for most of North America. How’s that for a triple whammy!
A super moon occurs when the Moon’s orbit is closest (perigee) to Earth at the same time the Moon is full. When a full moon appears at perigee it is slightly brighter and larger than a regular full moon – and that’s where we get a “super moon.
Most years bring us two lunar eclipses (and two solar eclipses), but we haven’t had one arrive in the sign of Scorpio since April 25, 2013. Scroll way back on your timeline and see what was happening then. Themes could recur, bringing Scorpio’s signature sexiness, intensity, and alchemy in their wake.
Mercury will also be retrograde during this eclipse (from May 10 to June 3, to be exact), which provides another reason to prepare for the future by remembering lessons from the past.
Center yourself! Eclipses are notorious for exposing what’s hidden in the shadows, and doubly so when the Detective Scorpio is involved. Nefarious details may come to light, like hidden agendas and even scandalous activity. Picking up the pieces could take a minute, but with Scorpio’s “phoenix rising from the ashes” vibes, the best course of action is to tackle any destruction head on, and rebuild better than before.
Eclipses are harbingers of change — they usher in evolution. At a lunar eclipse, the shadow of the Earth falls across the face of the Moon bringing unconscious feelings to the surface, grounding them in reality. New beginnings and opportunities are abundant on this special Moon eclipse.
On May 16, 2022 the Full Moon will enter a total eclipse for around an hour and a half, causing a cosmic phenomenon known as a Blood Moon. The event coincides with a super moon, a term for the Moon at the closest point in its orbit to Earth coinciding with Full or New Moon phases.
Prepare to watch as your life shifts before your eyes! May could be one of the most intense—and meaningful—months for you in 2022. As the planets shift, eclipses roar and we start to experience more planetary retrogrades, you’ll be feeling like you’re stepping into the center of a cyclone!
Mercury retrograde again? Yep, it’s true. The dreaded Mercury retrograde phase will officially begin on May 10, 2022 and last until June 3, 2022. However, at the onset of May, you’ll already be feeling the slowdown of life, projects and plans. The greatest confusion will take place during the actual retrograde, but we’ll still be sorting details out until June 18, 2022. Don’t sign contracts, make promises, start a relationship or launch any new endeavors.
This Full Moon is traditionally known as the flower or milk moon by Native American cultures. That’s right Flowers are becoming abundant now. They are literally everywhere. It can also be known as the Corn Planting Moon, the Milk Moon, and the Hare Moon. The Earth is most fertile right now so it’s time to start planting spiritual and physical seeds!
Mark this one in your calendar because some significant changes will go down. As this full moon falls in Scorpio, the sign of sex, and transformation, get ready for some big changes. You are encouraged to let go of whatever is no longer serving you. Full moons are drama queens. As a result, you may experience unexpected changes surrounding this time, but remember that it’s all for the best.
Sensitive females might find that they cannot help but become the ultimate femme fatale. On the other hand, males touched by this full moon could play Don Juan. Both sexes need to watch they don’t become too ruthless in the quest of bedding the object of their desire. In other words this Moon brings out the lustful side of many. Yet this full Moon stirs up the artistry within our spirits and souls.
It’s a great night to plant something in the garden. Get a baby sapling and plant it in honor of tonight’s moon! Bring fresh flowers into your house, or design a headband made of flowers for yourself.
The energy on the night of a full moon is very powerful. It’s a perfect night to recharge your energy.
On this full moon let the emphasis be on you! Draw down the energy of the moon and empower yourself for your work and what you wish throughout the month.
This is a time for greater understanding and positive transformations through sacrifice and offering.
This full Moon can make you aware of things that have been hidden. If you have been wrestling with a problem, ask your angels for clear messages to help transform it.
This full moon can help in healing the internal demons we face, walking through fear, and embracing experience.
This full Moon will shine a light on what you have been enmeshed in. It will help you see if things have been healthy or toxic. This is a time of transforming any negative energy and make a clean break from anything that is not healthy.
This full moon emphasizes your hidden psychic roots and those that come from being parked in one spot. It’s timely for purging the excess and what takes you off your center.
Using the energy of this full Moon we can gain soul power by withstanding and being creative in the face of adversity. True confidence emerges when there’s nothing to fear, within or without.
If you have been repressing your feelings about something, it may show up as physical discomfort or pain in order to get your attention. Fortunately, embodied experiences like yoga, massage, or dancing can help us find release.
Indulging in creature comforts can also be good for the soul—as long as we keep material things in their proper perspective. As our values and desires are shifting its time to let go of what no longer serves you. Cut the cords! In doing this you will give more attention to the things that really matter in your life.
It is time to set firmer boundaries. Fortunately, we can gather the confidence we need to stand our ground and embody our deepest truths.
Sometimes it’s easy to fool ourselves into believing that we’re above it all. But the truth is, most of us still have some unfinished business to take care of before we can truly transcend as a spiritual being.
Rituals or symbolic actions taken now can help us forgive, express gratitude, and finally let go. At this “Flower Moon,” it’s time to start flowing and growing!
The lunar eclipse will be an extremely powerful time for cleansing our emotional waters and setting intention for renewal and rejuvenation in the coming months, because the energetic cycles of the lunar eclipse tend to extend through the period of next three months after its event.
The spiritual aspects of the moon represent our deep emotional tides, and so when the shadow passes over the moon, temporarily ceasing the illumination of our emotional being, there is an opportunity to reveal and transform our current emotional state.
A simple ceremony of lighting a candle and sending up prayers is a great way to kick start your energy in the right direction.
Flower Moon observations revolve around the bounty and beauty of nature this time of year. A lunar ritual can be as simple as taking a walk. It does not necessarily need to be done at night as long as it’s done with the intention of connecting to Mother Nature and your higher self.
Now is the time to focus on the changes going on in your personal life. Pray for the world, but focus on you during the next 28 days!
Tending to your relationships — not just yourself — is just one more way to help your personal life blossom under the May 16, 2022, Flower Moon.
So let the emphasis to be on you! Use this night to draw down the energy of the moon and empower yourself for your work and what you wish throughout the month.
Don’t miss this wonderful evening!
The full moon is the perfect time to let go of the past.
