This week’s powerful full moon in Scorpio could bring some eye-opening awakenings. With the help of Scorpio’s soulful energy, you’ll be ditching bad habits and starting afresh.

Pisces

There’s an emotionally charged energy to your week during a full moon in soulful Scorpio on Monday 26 April. This is a time of major transformation for your sign as you embark on a new chapter. Relish this lunation by tapping into the body’s needs with daily neck hygiene exercises and meditation.
Aries
March 21 – April 19
This week’s hard-hitting full moon in Scorpio puts finances to the forefront of your mind. Feelings will run deep under the esoteric Scorpio influence which may enhance feelings of vulnerability. Whack out the Excel spreadsheets or a Smythson organiser to keep an eagle eye on shared costs.
Taurus

A powerful Scorpio full moon puts partnerships into play this week. You could be narrowing down your social circle to make room for more meaningful relationships. If a postponed birthday extravaganza is on the cards, Mykonos is the place to party. Book now, travel later.

Leo
