🌕 Full Moon in Scorpio – May 23, 2025
The Flower Moon | The Micromoon | The Bloom of Brave Transformation
On May 23rd at 12:56 PM EST, we welcome the Full Moon in Scorpio, also known as the Flower Moon—a name inspired by the blossoming of wildflowers in the Northern Hemisphere. While this moon is considered a micromoon, appearing smaller and more distant in the sky, don’t be fooled by its size—its impact will be deep, deliberate, and transformative.
Scorpio teaches us that still waters run deep. That what’s buried still breathes. And that every bloom must rise through dark soil to meet the light.
🦂 Scorpio Full Moon: Power in Vulnerability, Strength in Stillness
Scorpio is the sign of emotional mastery, intimate truth, and transformational tension. It doesn’t shy away from death, rebirth, or the discomfort required to grow. This Flower Moon forms a sacred trine to Saturn, the planet of discipline and soul labor, and also aligns with the North Node in Pisces—our collective invitation to dream, surrender, and evolve spiritually.
These transits ask us to do something radical:
🌑 Follow our dreams fearfully.
Not fearlessly. Fear acknowledges the cost.
Fear means you care.
And fear makes the reward real.
🔮 Energies at Play: What This Moon Invites
🌸 Emotional courage – choosing what you deeply want, not what you think is safe
🌸 Releasing karmic weight – decisions now have fated, future-aligned impact
🌸 Intimate truth – not everyone can come with you, and that’s okay
🌸 Grounded dreaming – Saturn + the North Node = dream it, but build it
Uranus’s energy also pushes us toward freedom from the past, urging us to step out of patterns, loops, and emotional ruts. With this lunar spotlight in Scorpio, your soul is being asked to open—like the flowers blooming around you—to the full complexity of feeling and fate.
🌕 Ritual Suggestions for the Flower Moon
-
Water Bowl Reflection
Write down what you’re afraid to admit (to others—or to yourself). Submerge it in a bowl of water under the moonlight. Let it dissolve into stillness. Then pour it away. -
Shadow Integration Prayer
Light a black candle. Call your name into the flame three times. Speak your fears aloud. Thank them for protecting you. Then choose your path anyway. -
Bloom Offering
Place blooming flowers on your altar as a symbol of your growth. Each petal represents something you’ve outgrown. Let them dry in place as proof of your cycle.
✨ Flower Moon Affirmation:
“I honor my fear as sacred.
I walk into the unknown anyway.
I am ready to bloom—rooted in truth, fed by courage, and guided by something deeper than certainty.”
The Flower Moon in Scorpio is not here to rush you. It’s here to stir you.
To let the quiet ache inside you speak louder than your distractions.
To teach you that bravery is not the absence of fear—it’s devotion despite it.
Breathe deep. Open slowly. And bloom like you mean it.
