The full moon rises as a total lunar eclipse in sidereal Scorpio on 26 May 2021. Whatever was initiated during the new moon comes into fruition in Mars’ feminine side. But under this eclipse the energy may be subtle and hidden.
Mental and emotional energy may be low due to the moon feeling disconnected when in Scorpio. Imbalances may appear as laziness, skepticism, fear, and being overly secretive. Meditation, yoga, Tai Chi, or other practices that encourage turning inward are ways of working with this eclipse.
Transits
Mars continues to transit Gemini, until 1 June 2021, and will be joined by Mercury the day before the eclipse. Saturn in Capricorn goes retrograde for five months. There may be an intense urge to learn or be social because previous delays and setbacks lessen. Be aware of combative behaviors, actions, and discussions; remove yourself from those spaces.
The eclipse will last for five hours. See below where it affects your life on an individual level. The ascendant represents the physical world and moon for emotional.
