🔮 Weekly Astrology Forecast | Full Moon in Scorpio, Uranus Cazimi & Big Energy Shifts (12–18 May 2025)

There’s a bit of intensity to the beginning of this week, with a full moon in Scorpio kicking things off and stirring up a lot of energy. Full moons tend to heighten emotions anyway, but this one carries a particularly deep and transformative quality. There’s real potential here to gain clarity, bring something up from the depths, and work with it in a way that can truly shift things. That said, it’s intense — be mindful of how your energy is responding, and be kind and gentle with yourself as you move through it.

The middle of the week offers some breathing space. Things settle a bit, there’s a more relaxed energy, and the chance to allow whatever surfaced during the full moon to begin integrating, transforming, and even healing. Venus also leaves her pre-retrograde shadow on Friday, which feels like another quiet nod towards forward movement.

By the weekend, things heat up again. There’s a bit of a bang to end the week with a Uranus cazimi, Mercury square Mars, and Jupiter square the nodes — all landing on the same day. This is big and slightly heated energy. But this is still a week for progress. We’ve got the momentum of the spring season behind us, and with that comes the opportunity to shed, release and make changes that stick. Pay attention to how you’re managing your energy — this week’s astrology invites us to transform from the ground up, but a strong foundation is key. This is powerful energy for reworking that foundation — especially when it comes to how you care for yourself.

Astro Highlights of the Week

Monday 12th May

Full Moon In Scorpio @ 22 degrees

• Opposes Uranus in Taurus @ 26 degrees

• Deep, emotionally charged, transformative and alchemical

• Full moons heighten emotions; Scorpio intensifies this with its emotional depth

• Uranus adds a breakthrough or awakening element to this lunation

• Full moons illuminate, and Scorpio's tendency for secrecy makes this a revealing time — ideal for getting to the core of something; awareness allows transformation

• The Moon is in its fall in Scorpio — a water sign with a Martian edge brings a harshness to the gentle and flowing energy of the moon

• Expect a moody, brooding quality; Scorpio energy isn’t afraid of emotional intensity or the darker side of things

Mercury in Taurus Square Pluto in Aquarius @ 3 degrees

• Encourages deep, transformative dialogue

• Promotes excavation of hidden truths and deeper layers

• Reinforces the potent, awakening energy of the full moon

• Stay grounded — while this intensity is constructive, it can also feel heavy or overwhelming; go gently and take care of yourself through the process

Friday 16th May

Sun in Taurus sextiles the North Node in Pisces @ 25 degrees

• Highlights a supportive, forward-moving path

• Taurus brings grounding and practicality

• Pisces adds vision, spiritual potential and imaginative depth

Sunday 18th May

Sun in Taurus conjunct Uranus in Taurus @ 27 degrees

• Signals awakening, shifts, and future-focused developments

• May feel unsteady or unpredictable

• Yet could reveal a grounded, practical way forward with lasting impact

Mercury in Taurus square Mars in Leo @ 13 degrees

• Could spark tension or heated exchanges

• Brings sharp, intense conversations

• Risk of stubborn stand-offs or difficulty reaching resolution

Jupiter in Gemini squares North Node @ 25 degrees

• Might create friction in growth and forward momentum

• Jupiter isn’t especially strong in Gemini, making expansion trickier

• Jupiter wants to grow and move freely, but Gemini confines it to facts and data

• The North Node seeks bold leaps into the unknown — something Pisces (Jupiter’s home sign) supports far more than Gemini does
