As a doctor, I know it’s nearly impossible to find balance as a medical student and resident, so when I was asked to lead a webinar for medical students about finding balance during your medical training, I nearly choked on my green juice. What? Balance in medical school? Hogwash!

Welcome back to the AstroTwins New/Full Moon series! Today, we dive into the depths with Scorpio's full moon, which cranks up the intensity and tunes us into our souls. Scorpio is a spiritual healer and the ruler of extremes. It can bring out both our darkest shadows and our highest selves. The Scorpio full moon reveals all of the “secrets” we’ve been keeping (including hiding our own light under a bushel). Open closet, exit skeletons.

Balance and Letting Go

This year’s Scorpio full moon is also opposite four planets in practical, grounded Taurus, indicating that we need to balance our material and spiritual desires. It’s fine to crave more money, luxury and beautiful things, but is it at the expense of a soul goal? On the flip side, this opposition reminds us that poverty, lack and struggle aren’t noble—nor are they necessary to be spiritually “enlightened.” Going without doesn’t make us more virtuous, and wanting nice things doesn’t mean we’re out of touch with the divine. Find the right balance today.

Spiritualism

I know to an extent, I've shared my beliefs about God here on Owning Pink. If you've missed those posts from me in the past, let me just warn you I'm about to bust out the "spiritualism." People from every religion speak about TRUTH. When it comes down to it though, in order for it to be true, don't we all have to believe it (or at least feel that it could be true)? What I am going to discuss in this post is something I think can be found somewhere in the writings of every religious organization. Not everyone will chose to embrace it, but I'd bet if they were open to it, they'd find confirmation of it very easily...

I'm Only Human!
