Scorpio Horoscope for May 2013

This is an exciting moment for you, Scorpio. You are learning constantly these days, with not all of the lessons planned, although the ones that come crashing in out of the blue somehow still seem to fit. Your evolutionary path is new, and yet also partakes of traditional ways of looking at the world. You are adjusting to a sense of limitation, allowing for it and making it work for you. Key relationships in your life have also taken on a novel form of luster, with perspective changes that are major; some pieces familiar, with a different twist, while others entirely unique in your experience. This is all part of an ongoing metamorphosis that affects everything, and that allows your everyday practice to shine with a subtle light that illumines distant horizons of meaning.

As the month begins, you are still reeling from the aftermath of the very powerful Full Moon and Lunar Eclipse in your sign that took place on Thursday, April 25. This initiated a powerful time for you that was both contemplative and action-oriented. Partnership comes into consideration now since the eclipse was activating the first and seventh sectors of your solar chart, of self-identity and other-orientation. Saturn was conjoined with the eclipse Moon in your sign, opposed to the Sun in your opposite Taurus with your co-ruler Mars. The implication is that a concentration and focus is applied to issues of self and other, both in the current month and for several months to come. You are in any case fascinated with depth partnership connection, and are taking a closer look, which involves the long-term lessons as well as the slowing down and holding back effects of Saturn.

With Mars opposed to Saturn as the month of May begins, there is a degree of blocking of forward momentum that is in the air for everyone, and most notably for you in particular, since these very planets are emphasized by their position in your solar chart. You are feeling the exquisite frustration of thwarted desire, and can decide to rage or sulk, and you can also choose to use these sensations wisely, as a way of focusing in on what is truly important to you. Everything in the cosmos has its special benefit for we earth-dwellers, even when it seems difficult to find the blessing.

It is also important to note that the other powerhouse outer planets of Neptune, Uranus and Pluto are strongly invoked all month long, as the square aspect between Uranus and Pluto comes to its third exact alignment of seven on Monday, May 20th. These latter two archetypes are therefore affecting each other, creating an evolutionary pressure that hits you in particular areas. Uranus is currently located in the sixth sector of your solar chart, corresponding to health and day-to-day concerns, and to finding your dharma, your true path forward. By contrast, Pluto is found in your third sector of communication and learning. It could easily be that your life will radically alter in both these areas over the course of a creative summer.

Pluto brings material up from your very depths, revealing deeper desires and needs than you are able to consciously grasp, or be entirely ready to acknowledge. The cast-off parts of yourself that you might encounter could be scary at times, and yet benefit you as well when you can stay the course and get to know them a bit better.

Toward month's end, nebulous Neptune becomes even more emphatically highlighted, located in your creativity sector. Your persona automatically takes on a more otherworldly presence as your self-expression waxes mystical. You might try to hide in your armor of normality, but this essence has a way of showing as you communicate and artistically offer yourself to others around you.
