Truth can be frightening, even for a witch—to see with total and unwavering clarity what needs doing, what needs changing, and what blockages are currently standing in our way can rustle our oldest and deepest fears out of their dust-laden boxes and into waking life. But truth can also soothe these fears; practicing radical honesty doesn't just reveal our energetic knots. It shows us where our energetic threads begin and end, so that we can begin the process of unraveling them. 

This Scorpio full moon, let vehement truth clear the way for uncorked, radiant truth to flow up, out, and into being. Scorpio is preoccupied with emotional nooks, shadows, stagnancy, clearing, and pathways. This full moon coincides with a total lunar eclipse, heightening our intentions twice over. Superstition surrounds eclipses of all kinds, but especially lunar eclipses, when the glassy surface of the moon turns a diluted red. The dimmed light of today's full moon is a call to pause and asses.

Let your subconscious mull over this symbolic darkening of today's full moon. Can you give yourself permission to laugh with your shadows today? To hold space for your own duality, if only for a moment? Can you locate the energies you're ready to exhume, learn from, and release? Can you make a commitment to being more honest with just one person, even if that person is you?

If today's full moon is pulling at your already-frayed edges, take extra time to ground and center. If you nervous systems is harried, over-burdened, and hyper-vigilant, it's okay to retreat to a nest of comfort and rest, seek out pleasure, and leave the deep reflection for another time. Be gentle with the truth your body is offering you. The rest can wait, babe.
