Stabilizing, releasing and sharing.  Revelations, reforms. Things to heal and repair, while preparing for a new chapter ahead.

This Full Moon can be deep and transformative on so many levels.

On a personal level, this Full Moon highlights revelations, and brings some kind of closure through emotional truth and committed change or themes towards repairing and healing long held issues, negotiations or endeavors. It can be creative and transformative, and surface memories, in a liberating or surprising way.

Relationship dynamics may intensify, express passion, bringing to light where deeper authenticity, truth, passion or a different approach is needed. The Venus–Mars trine supports healthy assertion and balanced desire, but it can also get stuck with identity and pride, while the Moon’s apex position in a Yod with Jupiter and Chiron suggests subtle turning points that ask for redirection in habits or the activation of underused skills and ways to respond to complexity and issues that we feel deeply important. Communication is pivotal now: Mercury square Pluto can signal truth-revealing breakdowns or breakthroughs in perception, negotiations, connection, values, money or control. Grounding our plans and ideas, requires persistence and effort. Adjustments maybe needed to habits and routines, as opportunities arise.

The Fixed Earth and Fire emphasis, grounds us in consistency and creative willpower, pointing toward sustainable choices, and creative approaches. Showcasing work or acting with caution is the best approach. This is a brittle combination. Moon and Saturn in water signs, maintaining a phlegmatic filter of inner reflection and a more internalised sense of commitment. There is extrovert action and emphasis on passion, creativity and  need to relate to others in a spontaneous way,  and stillness or a more internalized and covert energy to do with commitments, family and daily routines. Our mind may be intensely working on resolving or implementing. Where do we push, what do we say, and where do we hold back? Are we stuck with change? Is our inner self aligned with our actions? Perhaps simpler solutions fit this picture. Jupiter squaring the Nodes, positioned at the North Bending, puts a spotlight on beliefs, and truths, shaped by deeply ingrained habitual patterns. This is a chance to become aware of what we’re perpetuating unconsciously — and to pivot toward more conscious exchange and learning from each other, expressing generosity, while becoming aware of how we express our judgements.

Legal issues move a step forward, as well as agreements or contracts, buying and selling, settling issues, but may have to face some complexity or hindrances in their implementation. Issues of sharing values, possessions and finances are being adjusted and seeking alternate solutions. There is a change in dynamics regarding values, resources, attraction, love, innovation. A sudden release or spur of creativity and generosity in relationships, despite any problems.  Unusual ways to be creative and connect with others. Healing, repairing, adjusting, as well as applying our skills, and strengthening methods or habits, will be the focus in the next couple of weeks. A change of plan maybe needed. Travel, information and negotiations maybe complicated. There is a lot of energy, and it can be productive if we declutter the noise.

On a psychological level, this lunation illuminates emotional blind spots and asks for transformation through insight rather than rigid reaction and detachment. The Yod pattern (Moon quincunx Jupiter & Chiron) presents inner tension between what we know could restore wholeness, and what we’re still holding onto. There are opportunities in love, creativity and professional realms, but are we emotionally ready to accept them? This creates a powerful moment to shift our internal approach — to frame or build what has been fragmented or suppressed in our lives and in our relationships.

As Saturn is ending  its transit through Pisces, there’s a deep internal call to take a harder mature look on our responsibilities, our long term work, those in need around us,—spiritual, and ethical patterns. Our approach to faith, promises, boundaries, and sacrifice is tested. We’re preparing for a more direct, action-driven phase (Saturn in Aries), and the discomfort of this transition may reveal where boundaries, commitments or clarity are still lacking and where spiritual discipline is needed. We need to pay attention to our body and mind. However, something new is blooming, and that requires a new bolder approach towards initiative, that couples caution with assertiveness, and a wiser more reflective approach to commitment, accountability and risk management. Our work, commitments and experience, is changing filter of expression. From water to fire. This is an awakening of the spirit, extrovert energy, and requires presence and action. The Jupiter square to the Nodes encourages this inner audit: are we staying stuck in habitual narratives, or ready to engage with fresh perspectives? There could be a change in our social context or environment that triggers this theme.

Can we align with significant others, and still maintain our beliefs and values? How do we contribute to change, approach  generosity, and where do we remain independent? There is a call to a different approach, sharing personal stories, decluttering noise and keeping enthusiasm and faith, while releasing or healing the past.

On a collective level, this Full Moon brings exposures, disruptions, reforms and shifts in systems of control, safety, security, technology, communication, the economy and financial systems. Buried dynamics in governance, secrecy, and shared resources can be unearthed or revealed, while practical reforms or unexpected changes of value systems, and ownership themes maybe emphasized. Social unrest, controversy, excitement or dissatisfaction, will be present, while we may see bolder moves or statements in alliances and shifts in popular opinion. Shared resources, taxes and the systems technological or other that secure them are emphasized.

Saturn in Pisces signals the end of a phase related to large organizations, public health, social welfare systems, pharmaceutical industry trends, and structures or rules that relate to water management or the medical sector. As Saturn is nearing its ingress to Aries on May 24th, a collective desire to act with clarity and responsibility emerges, but also the need for governing sectors to organize or support  systems for emergencies, risk, war and crisis management.

The Jupiter–Saturn square stirs tension between expansion and organization, clash of beliefs between generations, especially in mutable domains like education, commerce, trade, travel, and legislation, which in June will shift in cardinal domains indicating global changes and new initiatives of a territorial or structural nature pertaining to agreements.  With Jupiter at the North Bending, society is being challenged to recognize how repetitive or outdated patterns of belief and growth may hinder true evolution for the many. This is a moment to adopt wiser, more informed perspectives — in policy, in culture, and in values. Finances and trade are highlighted with radical reforms or dealing with problems. Intense expression of opinions, on values, or issues of access, safety and security.

Mercury squaring Pluto indicates heightened scrutiny of information, systems of knowledge, and media — possibly uncovering manipulation, distortion, or shifts in public perception. Yet the Jupiter–Chiron sextile offers a way forward: constructive insight, skillful mediation, and healing frameworks can emerge if there is willingness to address the root of dysfunction rather than merely its symptoms. Uranus in harmony with the luminaries and Nodes offers forward-thinking steps, or reforms rooted in sharing values or resources. Sudden calls to align with or assist others.

This Full Moon may have a more personal feel to you:

If you have planets or points at 22-27 of fixed signs, 03-04 of fixed signs, and 09-12 of fire signs, and 28-30 of mutable signs, and 0 Aries.

The following tips maybe useful if your chart placement are triggered as you navigate the next two weeks:

Positive use of this energy:

Write or speak your truth, even if just to yourself — awareness dissolves hidden tension. Make space for discomfort as a guide, not an enemy.

Review recurring patterns in your relationships, daily life or mindset — ask: “Is this still of value, is this teaching me something?” Take responsibility for your energy, not others’ reactions.

Create slow, meaningful change — fixed signs reward commitment and clarity over speed, find some space for enjoyment. Take care of the body, and be mindful of nervous energy or any remedies that need adjustment. The throat and reproductive organs, as well as the large intestine maybe more sensitive.

An opportunity to face deep feelings with clarity, leading to personal strength.

Breakthrough in intimacy or communication: With Mercury square Pluto, truths may be revealed that liberate rather than destabilize. Choose honesty instead of secrecy, silence or distrust. Empowering vs disempowering.

Support sustainable changes, with enthusiasm and warmth, especially in love, partnership, finances or creativity (Venus–Mars trine) and reinforce them with purpose.

Support learning from old wounds or weaknesses and applying that wisdom skillfully.

How does truth and honesty, lack of moderation or generosity affect you? What are your habitual patterns around those themes? Jupiter at the North Bending gives the chance to pivot from habitual beliefs and patterns of organized and detailed thinking and communicate in a more   Maybe it’s time to innovate.

What to pay attention to:

Holding  on to grudges, fear of vulnerability, or getting stuck to rigid patterns of thought. Being too rational where passion and warmth is needed.  Making changes and plans impossible through complicated approaches or fear of discussing alternatives. Without demonstrating willingness to share it can lead to blockages in connecting and sharing with others. Being too suspicious of other’s intentions. Be aware if trapped in a dissonant vibe. Uranus and Chiron engaged with the Luminaries could bring some kind of detachment,  or feeling of alienation, a sense of feeling abandoned or unsupported. Moon trine Saturn maybe saying we need a quiet routine, and Mars trine Venus, speaks of a courageous, extrovert, dynamic passionate and honest approach to relating and desires.

Mercury–Pluto square may fuel suspicion, manipulation, or mental intensity if not channeled consciously. Resistance to internal discomfort may lead to blaming others, or swinging between extremes. Jupiter square the Nodes can lock people into belief systems or cycles of tolerance that feel familiar but no longer serve growth.

Saturn’s late Pisces placement can bring feelings of confusion, fatigue, guilt, or pressure to “solve” uncertainty before clarity arrives.

Don’t force big changes — allow insight to lead the way. Avoid speaking or acting from paranoia, especially if overwhelmed. Don’t dismiss subtle invitations to growth just because they’re unfamiliar. Avoid reactivity — especially in conversations about values, intimacy, trust issues or control.

There are many conversations going on in this chart, so many different choices and voices of what we need and how to respond.
