What’s Brewing: The Scorpio Full Moon

Shadow & Sovereignty: Releasing to Rise

This Monday, May 12th, the Scorpio Full Moon rises like a phoenix from the underworld, summoning you to do the same. Scorpio doesn’t ask for surface-level healing. It demands that you feel, that you shed, that you burn down the illusion and alchemize truth from the ashes.

This is the moon to reclaim your inner witch, shadow, and all.
