Hello beautiful souls, and welcome to your Full Moon in Scorpio Horoscope for May 12th, 2025! This intense and transformative full moon will urge us to release any emotional pain, especially the kind we have unconsciously absorbed from others in today’s hyper-connected digital world.

🌑 The Energy of the Full Moon in Scorpio

In the digital age, social media and the news constantly expose us to injustice, suffering, and negativity happening in the world. While this strikes feelings of empathy toward our fellow humans, it can also drain us emotionally and interfere with our own wellbeing. We may begin to feel anxious, depressed, and suspicious of everyone when all we are exposed to is negativity.

The Full Moon in Scorpio will be a perfect opportunity to connect with our true feelings and release any pain and drama that doesn’t belong to us. This will allow us to better process our own emotions and find emotional security.
