In this episode, we talk about the astrology behind the Scorpio Flower Moon, why certain emotions or realizations may feel more intense right now, and how growth can look like choosing differently moving forward. Think of this as a reflective girl talk moment about honoring your standards, trusting what feels aligned, and allowing your next chapter to feel more intentional.

Welcome To The Dry Diaries

This is the dry diary with your author Alex Dry. Hey guys, what's up? It's your author Alex Dry back with another entry of the Dry Diaries. Today we have our astrology entry for May because we are entering into another full moon. This full moon is called the flower full moon, which sounds super sweet, dainty, and cute, but it has much deeper energy because this full moon is happening in Scorpio. Which, if any of you guys know Scorpio, you know how Scorpios are. No shade. A couple of my best friends are Scorpios, but it's giving a very emotional detective type of energy because nothing stays hidden under a Scorpio full moon. Secrets come out, truths come out, and feelings you're pretending that you didn't have or maybe storing, not admitting, are suddenly gonna show up. April's pink moon was all about balanced relationships, really prioritizing yourself first. Scorpio full moon is about transforming and renewing. Sometimes that means something has to end so new things can start to grow and develop, which sounds dramatic, but honestly, it's very Scorpio coded. I know some of my friends that are Scorpios, they're like, transform. I can transform overnight. If someone reveals something to me, goodbye, new things are coming. New things every full moon happens between two opposite signs. And the opposite signs for this full moon are Scorpio and Taurus. So Scorpio is about emotional truth, transformation, deep psychological insight, shared power, whereas Taurus is more about security, stability, and self-worth. So the life you're trying to build, this full moon can bring up or start surfacing the question within you does the situation that I'm in currently support the life that I want? It can be a living situation, a career path. It can even be a family dynamic, your own habits. And if you know anything about a Scorpio, they usually don't hold back. So this Scorpio moon is really good at revealing the truth. If you're noticing little signs, maybe people start to reveal their true colors, old emotions resurfacing, big relationship conversations, or the moment you realize this situation is not good for me, then you really need to trust your intuition on this one because May is the month to do so. This is about being very hypersensitive to trusting your intuition and what you're feeling. This is the time to really trust your gut because Scorpio is the sign that is like taking a truth serum. If these start coming to the surface and you're like, wait, this actually isn't good for me, listen to that, take it to heart, and maybe changes around that. Okay, so leading up to this moon, if you've found yourself in situations or things that you're doing where you've felt super drained, energetically off, something's confusing, keeping you stuck, then this is going to end here because the moon has a way of bringing everything to the surface. It's simply revealing to you, okay, this has been draining, you need to release it. And then you're just gonna feel like, oh my gosh, I can actually chill and breathe for a second. But it's definitely gonna require a little bit of emotional vulnerability to be able to do so. So you wanna get really honest with yourself emotionally during this full moon so you're able to let go and move forward and have that new growth happen. While this full moon is all about transformation, revealing truths, and exposing things in your life, there's also a lot of positive things where you're gonna see things like personal power, emotional resilience, rebirth. Once you're able to sit down and be open and honest with yourself, release everything you've been holding on to, maybe people, environment, situations. This is a powerful month because you're able to completely step into a whole different version of yourself. I deserve better than this, and I'm ready for something new. This month is the month to do it. May is powerful for all signs, but in particular, Scorpio and Taurus, but Gemini as well. It's all about stepping into your confidence, your power, things that you've been manifesting for the past year or even since the new year has begun. This is a month where you're gonna start seeing change, and everything that you've been wanting is going to come to fruition. It's really important to step into your confidence, own your power, don't accept things that this new version of yourself wouldn't. I did a little retreat back in 2025. And she had a journal. If we could have anything in life, what would that look like? What would she be named? What would she dress like? Where would she live? What career would she have? How would she feel? What would her morning routine be? Getting down into every single detail, I sat there like, what the fuck? Like, I don't even know how what that would look like. It really had me start thinking, I want all these things in life. But if I can't even envision it, then what am I doing? So if you're like, yeah, I really want to step into this new version of myself. I want to see change, whether it's in my career, my personal life, my relationships. If you do that exercise, it is gonna help in bringing clarity to how you envision your future or what your boss ass self looks like. So this is the energy of reinventing yourself, cutting off unhealthy cords, stepping into your confidence, owning your power, because a lot of the best chapters begin when you say, I do deserve better than this, I want this dream life, and I'm gonna step in the confidence and the power to do so. This full moon is giving the energy of let's fucking go because I'm going to step in to what I've been wanting to become. But also, as I mentioned, Scorpios are very good at seeking the truth and also uncovering what works for them and what doesn't work for them. And sometimes the truth is beautiful, sometimes it's uncomfortable. But either way, I think that this full moon is really a time for you to embrace that getting clarity is powerful. Because once you see the reality of something, you can choose for yourself is this a dynamic I want to stay in, or have I evolved past it? And the flower moon energy is very much about evolution, transformation, stepping into your power. So if you want to lead into this full moon energy, I always try to do a full moon little ritual at the beginning of every month. This full moon happens to be at the very beginning of the month, which is perfect. So, what I personally do is I will sit down, turn on frequency sound. Some of my favorite is 428. There's 777. Honestly, there's so many different hurts that hold strong healing patterns. I did a podcast on it before. You guys can go check it out. It was one of the earlier episodes I did. But yeah, so I'll sit down, turn on that music, or even you can turn on a meditation, whichever one you're comfortable with. I'll light some Palo Santo and do a little meditation, 10, 15 minutes, just me sitting there, breathing, and then I'll take a little piece of paper out of my journal and write down whatever reflects for that full moon. I'll either burn it or tear it up. I have to burn it because I like to watch it go away, and it's almost like a release for me. So if you want to do the flower full moon ritual for this month and lean into this energy, you can take a piece of paper and write down something you're ready to emotionally release. And this can be one thing, this can be five things. It's just a personal preference of what you're trying to release during this full moon. The second thing you're gonna write down is a fear you want to move past. For me personally, I know that a fear that I've struggled with is failing. I have all these goals, these things I want to accomplish. But the one thing that always holds me back is the thought of what if this fails? At the end of the day, I know that I just need to start it, go do it, and make it happen. But it's the fear of failure of what other people are gonna think. Like, if this fails, are people gonna judge me? I've invested time into this money. I think that's one of the fears for myself that I want to move past. You can write down as many fears that you're ready to let go. And then the third thing that you're gonna do is write down the version of yourself that you're stepping into. Once you do all this, it's important to either tear it up or burn it. This is symbolic of letting it go, releasing the old versions of what you were doing in the past and letting the new come in, creating space for the next chapter. If the pink moon in April was about balance and relationships, the flower moon in May is about owning your personal power, transformation. This is a moment to stop dimming your light and stop making other people feel comfortable at your own expense. Choose the life, the relationships, the friendships that match the energy of who you want to be and who you're becoming. All right, guys. Well, that concludes another entry of the Dry Diaries.
