Full Moon in Taurus October 24, 2018: Let Go of Shame and Embrace Unconditional Self-Love

Happy Full Moon in Taurus, Dear Friends! The Butterfly Maiden is our Spirit Guide for this powerful Moon phase. The Butterfly Maiden represents transformation and she comes forth to help us break out of the shell of our Shadow.

Our doubt, fear, and low self-esteem become a prison for our Soul, and every time the Moon becomes full, we are given a chance to break ourselves free. For the Full Moon Ritual, I called upon a Goddess to help us expand, grow and develop during this Full Moon phase, and the Butterfly Maiden came forth. Mind you, she also came forth two weeks ago at the New Moon. I don’t consciously choose these cards, friends.  I pull them from Doreen Virtue’s Goddess Oracle deck every two weeks.  Clearly, the Butterfly Maiden wants us to truly become the Badass Butterflies we are meant to be!

When I first moved into my apartment here in Tuscany…

… I found a little black scorpion in my bedroom. It was dead which I found both relieving and terrible as I still had to deal with removing it. I don’t know about you, but I hate dealing with dead things.

Anyway, the important thing is that there was a scorpion in my bedroom! That’s totally auspicious because although scorpions have a terrible sting, Scorpio energy rules the bedroom and coincidentally, it rules dead things. I took this little visitor to be a blessing of abundant romantic interludes and the promise of what is to finally die for good. YES!

On October 23rd, the Sun moves into the sign of Scorpio and the on October 24th, the Moon rises full in Taurus. This means really good things for us all—although it may be a tough road to hoe. Scorpio rules the 8th house, which is the House of Transformation and Taurus rules the 2nd house of Self-Worth. This is a powerful combination because we are being given a golden opportunity to transform our feelings of self-worth. If you follow this guide and work with the Sun and the Moon, you just might find that you have freed yourself from shame and welcomed Unconditional Self-Love into your life.

So many people write me each week asking how to feel worthy, how to recognize their worth, and how to feel appreciated. I have found that many people don’t have a clue about what it means to truly value themselves. Getting a manicure is not valuing yourself. It is a lovely thing to do for yourself, indeed. But religious trips to get a mani-pedi or even a massage are not evidence of how much you love yourself.

Evidence of Self-Love is your willingness to release your guilt and shame. It is your willingness to leave the crappy job and the impoverished relationship that is dragging you down. It’s the confidence and trust that you put in yourself that you can achieve whatever it is you desire—even if it takes hard work and tons of grit. And hey, your self-worth is your ability to surrender to the arms of this loving Universe and KNOW that you are meant to not just survive but thrive… and take ALL of your actions from this place of trust and knowing (not just the safe ones.)

This is huge, friend. And this is what the Sun in Scorpio and Full Moon in Taurus have in store for us. This period is ultimately about how you connect OR NOT—whether you are disconnected from life and living on the outside or if you are a welcome insider… powerfully manifesting like a badass and knowing your worth. Scorpio is ruled by Pluto and what you choose this month will affect your happiness at the deepest level. On your list of things to consider should be sex, money, creativity, connection to Spirit, intuition, vulnerability, sensuality, death and rebirth (as I mentioned earlier) but most importantly, think CONNECTION.

We are on the threshold of a great opportunity to create everlasting change.  I want you to thrive.  The Universe wants you to thrive.  But what about you?  Are you ready to break free from the safety of your cocoon?  Or should I say, the PRISON of your cocoon… The Butterfly Maiden has come and although she is young and light, she is going to deliver you all the input you need to transform from caterpillar to Badass Butterfly.  Call upon her and accept her guidance with appreciation.
