Full Moons come around once a month and, for the day before, during, and after, bring a ‘pause’ moment. They provoke reflection, rumination, bringing things to a conclusion, finishing off tasks, reviewing results, and thinking through how your life is going. It’s a time for thought vs action.

This Full Moon on April 23 occurs in the sun sign of Taurus which means the moon is in its opposite sign, Scorpio.

Scorpio’s influence puts the Pluto-led powers of perception squarely on yours truly. You notice new things about yourself, your growth and transformation, your adaptation to the changing world around you, your emerging desires, perhaps even a new identity or sense of self. All in all, what starts within could herald the start of a 2.0 version of you!

Let the tarot guide you towards who is emerging from within this Full Moon!
