Full Moon in Scorpio – May 12, 2025

Get ready for some polarizing energy with this Full Moon in Scorpio! As the sister sign of Taurus, Scorpio introduces some significant conflict to the grounded Earth sign. Between the two, it’s easy to fluctuate between feeling super abundant and utterly deprived. If you feel like you’re getting caught at one end of the spectrum or the other, just remember that the truth probably lies somewhere in the middle.
The Taurus-Scorpio axis urges us to focus on what we value, how we feel valued, our personal worth, trusting others, and intimacy. So, your feelings of self-worth might undergo some scrutiny, but it’s also a good time to reassess how others treat you. Are you being spoken to with respect? Do others value your time, energy, and uniqueness? If not, it might be time for some changes.
This Full Moon is also positioned opposite Uranus, so don’t be shocked if a sudden surprise or seemingly random event happens on and around the Full Moon. Ground into Taurus’s energy if something unexpected comes your way, and you’ll navigate it like a pro.
Plus, this Full Moon promises both the release of those relationships and situations that aren’t for your greatest good and new, exciting opportunities on the horizon. Don’t get distracted from your goals. Instead, use the Full Moon to channel your inner badass and give your goals the final push they need to get over the finish line.
Horoscopes for the Full Moon in Scorpio
Aries: The Full Moon is shining light on any issues in your financial life, power balances, and intimate relationships. If you start feeling a little paranoid about any of these parts of your life, throw some protection up around you and tap into your intuition before making any big decisions.
Taurus: You’re likely to feel some intense emotions around this Full Moon. This is a time of great highs and very low lows. Pay attention to what feels good and what doesn’t. After the Full Moon clears, put more of your energy toward the good parts and renegotiate boundaries where you need to.
Gemini: Streamline your habits and processes, especially at work, and give yourself a break from doing all the things, all the time. Break up with your bad habits and spruce up your energetic hygiene practices, too. Think of this Full Moon as a little refresh to your life!
Cancer: Your intuition is going through the roof lately! You may also feel like you can see, hear, and smell better lately. As a Cancer, your emotions are likely to be at an all-time high; however, if you tap into your inner wisdom, you can discern between what’s truly happening and any perceived thoughts and feelings.
Leo: This Full Moon is feeling a bit like a detox for you. You’re also being called to give up bad habits. This includes any self-sabotaging behavior and thoughts that keep you small. Remember, though, that small changes result in massive transformation, so take it slowly and become a little healthier, more grounded, and magickal each day.
Virgo: Ooh, girl, you will want to express yourself more than ever during this Full Moon, as it impacts your communication zone. And that expression may be a little more in the “I told you so” territory than is beneficial to your relationships. Be alert for secrets coming to light and truths finally being revealed. Despite your urge to be sassy about something, stay quiet for now. It’ll all come out in the wash.
Libra: You’re being asked to reassess your values. Do they actually align with what you want, or are they leftovers from someone else’s influence? This Full Moon is a sign for a fresh start, and only you know where you need that reboot the most.
Scorpio: Happy Full Moon! This is your time to shine, especially when it comes to being yourself. The past is in the past, and it’s time to move on from your mistakes shame-free. Use this Full Moon as a lifestyle and personal makeover opportunity, shifting into the person you want to be for the rest of the year.
Sagittarius: Your intuition is especially quick this month, and you may be feeling the urge to look inward. Pick up your creative or journaling practice again – we both know you’ve been putting it on the back burner. And in all you do, look toward who you want to be, not who you were even just a couple of weeks ago.
Capricorn: Scorpio’s vibes are bringing a little bit of suspicion around your group of friends. Your inner circle is your go-to for support, but there may be something stirring underneath a shiny exterior. Resist the urge to get involved in any drama and let things unfold as they will. Any issues will soon come to light!
Aquarius: The Full Moon is asking you to be honest with yourself about what scares you in your career. This lunation is prompting your drive to be and do more, but there’s also a hesitation there keeping you from the breakthrough just around the corner. Embrace the uncertainty with your curiosity, and you may be surprised at what happens!
Pisces: Dig a little deeper into what people are really telling you around this Full Moon. Nurture your private life and the quiet connections you have with your most treasured friends. Suddenly into conspiracy theories? That’s the Full Moon working its Scorpio magick. Just remember that conspiracy theories are best left to documentaries and not your real-life friendships.
Happy Full Moon, witches!
