What’s Brewing: May 12th to 18th

Full Moon in Scorpio: Let the Past Die To Let You Rise.

This week, we stand at the altar of transformation.

The Full Moon in Scorpio illuminates the shadows we’ve avoided, the truths we’ve denied, and the chains we’ve worn so long they’ve become invisible. But Scorpio doesn’t tolerate illusion. This is the sign of death and rebirth, of being split wide open and reassembled by soul truth.

If you’ve felt like you've been waiting for a sign, a push, or a break in the pattern, this is it. The past is whispering, but your future is roaring. You’re being asked to release the mental binds, ancestral stories, and energetic baggage that no longer belong to the person you’re becoming.

You don’t have to be afraid of what’s falling away. It’s compost for what wants to bloom.

Affirmation of the Week:

I release what no longer serves me and rise rooted in my truth. I am ready to live wide awake, fully alive, and free.

Tarot of the Week: 8 of Swords

The 8 of Swords arrives when we’re ready to face the uncomfortable truth: we are not as trapped as we think. Most of the restrictions holding us back are internal, fear, doubt, shame, or outdated beliefs. This card, in Scorpio season, tells us it's time to remove the blindfold, see clearly, and liberate ourselves from the inside out.

Let this moon be your reckoning and your rebirth.

Journal / Tarot Prompts:

Where have I allowed fear or old programming to limit me?

What truth have I been avoiding that I’m finally ready to face?

Pull 3 cards:

1. What am I being asked to release?

2. What truth am I uncovering?

3. What becomes possible when I let go?

Yoga Pose of the Week: Eagle Pose (Garudasana)

This powerful pose asks us to wrap, bind, and concentrate energy before unwinding with intention. Let your body teach you how to work with tension and release. Root through the foot. Focus your gaze. Unravel your wings.

Crystal of the Week: Obsidian

Obsidian is a truth-teller, mirror-holder, and protector. Use it to stay grounded as emotional truths rise to the surface. It helps you cut cords with compassion and stand in your own energetic sovereignty.

Astrology Insight:

The Full Moon in Scorpio (peaking May 12–13) amplifies our capacity for release. Scorpios don’t just let go; they transform. This moon pulls buried emotion, stuck grief, and unprocessed trauma to the surface. It may feel intense, but it’s medicine. Let it purge what’s weighing you down and reintroduce you to your power.

Sign of the Month: Taurus

Taurus offers the earthy foundation we need to hold us through this emotional storm. As Scorpio breaks us down, Taurus builds us back up. Together, they remind us: You are worthy of the life you’re dreaming of. But you must choose it, and release everything that says you can’t.

Song of the Week:

“The Chain” – Fleetwood Mac

Let this be your anthem of reclamation. Of breaking karmic loops. Of knowing you can love what once was and still release it. The past no longer owns you.

This week is an initiation.

You’re being invited to lay your past to rest—not in anger, not in fear, but in reverence. Let what needs to die, die. And in the stillness that follows, listen for your soul’s call. It’s time to rise, not as the person you were, but as the person you came here to be.

This is your awakening.

This is your liberation.

This is your magic.

So mote it be, Magical Being.
