With the Sun in Scorpio opposite the Moon in Taurus, there will be tension between the aggressive Mars energy and the stable Taurus energy; be extra careful, since both signs are fixed and the pull you feel from each side will be intensified. This strong energy, however, will be tempered some by the conjunction of Venus and Mercury in Sagittarius, which will add a bit of harmony to the situation.

After spending the last couple of weeks focusing on internal changes and growth you are making (or need to make), this Full Moon will bring the focus back to our external relationships. Venus and Jupiter are now direct again. Venus, the planet of love and sensuality, has ended her retrograde in stormy Scorpio and is now direct in Libra, the sign of partnerships. This will be a time of enhanced compassion and sensuality; take time to help others as well as yourself (schedule a relaxing weekend, perhaps?).

While relationships will tend to have a positive spin during this time, money matters could become a tad muddled. Taurus rules the Second House of money, and this Full Moon in Taurus squares Neptune, which may lead to indecisiveness or distrust regarding money matters.

Enjoy the down-to-earth energy of Taurus, and cultivate feelings of self-worth and esteem. The ruling planet of Taurus is Venus, the feminine archetype and the planet of self worth. Feeling good about yourself and in your own skin is a good starting point.
