When the moon is Full, it can be the best time to put the finishing touches on projects, end relationships, leave jobs, or “end” anything that is no longer in our best interests. :).
Some of us may feel more emotional during this month’s full moon as she brings in the watery sensitivity of Scorpio….
Watch out for feelings of jealousy/envy, or being overly blunt to the point of hurting others. Secrets can come out, or be shared with others, so take care who you share your information with. Some of us may feel more intense about a subject, situation, or person, and some of us may feel we need our space… Take care with the handling of all emotional situations, Check the facts before passing judgements.
Psychic abilities are likely stronger, and some of us may experience vivid dreams.
The Full moon will enhance this moon sign’s influence.
What does it all mean?
- Scorpio is very intense and probably the most sensitive of the zodiac signs
- The moon relates to our emotions, indicating we could be feeling everything more deeply for the next couple of days
- We can immerse ourselves in our projects now.
- Watch for becoming obsessed with someone or something…. not everyone falls for someone at the same time and patience may be needed regarding sensitive relationship matters
- Be sure that your partner, friend, lover, co-worker or school friend is really trying to upset your personal apple cart before making waves
- We could be encouraged or directed towards taking risks or doing things we wouldn’t normally do, especially those of a group or team nature.
- Some of us may be highly creative right now, while others get connected to their psychic side…
- Secrets may be told now… we can be enticed to open up to others about our deepest feelings/fantasy’s…
- While we will all be effected slightly by the Scorpio moon, she will have a greater effect on those who have the following in their charts..
- Moon in Scorpio
- Sun in Scorpio
- Moon in the 8th house
- Aspects to the Moon or Pluto
- Personal planets in Taurus
NOTES:
April 20: Major Conjunction, Jupiter/Uranus in Taurus:
- Jupiter = Expansion/Luck:
- Uranus = Shock/Chaos/Change:
- Taurus = Material and financial security/ownership.
Jupiter and Uranus are outer planets, and the influence is felt on a generational/global level more than a personal one… However, we shall all feel the affects at some point along the way and those with strong Jupiter (Sagittarius, 9th house) Uranus (Aquarius, 11th house) Taurus, 2nd house, and perhaps Scorpio chart influences are likely to feel the affects more…
This is not an influence of which we see changes immediately, it is a slow moving aspect (14 years) and like the sign of Taurus, stead fast and true. Perhaps, we can hold out hope that good changes will be on the way for us all. As an “event chart” the conjunction begins in the 6th house of health, work, hygiene and service… in my personal chart, this transitional conjunction will affect my 11th house of teamwork, kindred spirits, causes and social situations..
- April 22: Earth Day
- April 22: Passover begins at Sundown
- April 23: Full Moon in Scorpio
- April 25: Mercury Stations Direct, still in storm, situations that have been stymied, may begin to see some traction, but patience is still needed, as there are still bumps ahead until Mercury goes Direct at the beginning of May.

The Moon and Astrology
&
HOW IT AFFECTS OUR DAILY LIVES…
In astrology, the moon is connected to our emotions and reactions… how we are feeling on a given day may well be influenced by the sign that is visiting the moon… Each sign stays with the moon for up to 2.5 days…. 🙂
The Moon Void-off-Course:
There are times throughout the month when the moon isn’t fully immersed in any sign… this is when we say the moon is Void off Course… and when this occurs, we may feel “foggy” and “unfocused” … We may not be sure how we are truly feeling about a situation or a person…. Therefore it is not recommended that we make long-term commitments or important decision’s while the moon is Void off Course…. However there are 4 signs in the zodiac which may prove positive during the Void-off-Course moon…
- Cancer
- Taurus
- Sagittarius
- Pisces…
Opportunity Periods
There are other periods throughout the month that are known as Opportunity Periods, when it can prove to be a positive time for most people, however if you have challenging aspects happening within your own chart you may not be able to make use of opportunity periods.
Thanks to Paula Belluomini present day astrologer, William Lilly 17th century astrologer and Llewellyn’s Daily Planetary Guide for opportunity periods.
