The Scorpio full moon will force all the signs to face hidden aspects of themselves and accept who they have become.

According to NASA, an Old English name for the May full moon is the milk moon. In 703 AD, the English monk St. Bede the Venerable wrote that May was known as the "Three-Milkings Month," likely because cows could be milked three times a day during this fertile time of year.

Even if you’re not setting your alarm to catch the May full moon, it helps to understand the vibes it will bring. This lunation falls in the intense, brooding sign of Scorpio, a placement associated with Mercury, a planet of transformation, sexuality and deep introspection.
