Full Moon in Anuradha, Scorpio
May 31, 2026, 1:45am PT | 9:45am UTC

Anuradha is described as a spark, the spark that lights the heart, that ignites the devotion that fuels spiritual transformation. It feels deeply, sees clearly, loves strong.

Anuradha is a Devic Nakshatra ruled by Mitra, the lord of friendship, giving affection, humility, tenderness, empathy and devotion.

One of the symbols for Anuradha is the lotus flower. Humbly aware of “roots in the mud,” the lotus is light-seeking, rising through the waters to float and bloom under sun.

It speaks to me of the deep emotional waters Anuradha navigates, often in solitude, yet always surfacing again with a heart willing to open and bloom.

Anuradha sits in the middle of Scorpio, where the moon is said to be “in its fall.”
A full moon here can be a tender time, with sudden feelings of grief, isolation, even the illusion of unworthiness.

Scorpio is brave though - unafraid to meet the tender, the unmet, unwanted parts of our self, so we can heal with the waters of compassion.

It’s a great time to curl up with your best pal, or get with your close buddies, share from the heart, and let yourself feel how divinely nourishing friendship can be.

Even more, this is a time to deepen into your friendship with nature, and with your own divine nature, to feel the sacred, sumptuous self within.

This full moon invites devotion. Divine friendship. Soulful healing. Spiritual depth.

✨ Note: The Sun lighting the moon full is in Rohini, the star of Krishna. Anuradha means following Radha, or in the style of Radha.

So this full moon is a cosmic dristhi of Krishna and Radha, or the Lover and the Beloved. It is a beautiful time to meditate on love, on devotion, on beauty, and to ask, how am I a part of this fullness? How am I a part of this beauty? How can I bring this more and more into the light and live this divine relationship always?

I live on this Rohini-Anuradha line and am finding this full moon to be very sweet. No rushing, no doing, just being, loving, enjoying.

I wish you that same sweet fullness ✨

“Look at Beauty’s gift to us. Her power is so great she enlivens the earth, the sky, our soul.”

Mirabai, known also as Meera, was a 16th-century mystic poet and one of the most important poet-saints of the Bhakti movement.

Born to a royal family in what is modern-day Rajasthan, Mirabai dedicated her life to Sri Krishna. Her songs of devotion were legendary, and continue to inspire to this day.

Mirabai chose devotion over pomp and privilege, at times to the point of persecution.

Stories tell of Mirabai leaving the kingdom to spend her later years on pilgrimage. It is said that at the end of her life she miraculously merged, disappeared, into an idol of Krishna.

Sure, there’s a lack of historical evidence, but how does a merging with Krishna leave historical evidence?

It is known only by the invisible, intangible immortalizing experience of Beauty.

Jupiter moves to the sign of Cancer, where it is exalted, on June 1st.

Jupiter is like the cosmic sea. Cancer is ruled by the moon who governs the tides. Together they invite us to an experience of ourselves, of life, that is tidal, rhythmic, flowing, oceanic even.

You are being invited to a greater vision of what life is, and a greater sense of what you belong to.

But, it being watery, there may also be big emotions, heart surges, deep longing.

Jupiter in Cancer is not about ascending to avoid. Jupiter demands truth as a portal to freedom.

✨ Your body is mostly water. Ride its waves, swim in its depths. Cultivate Ojas and you will have everything you need to receive its gifts, and live this with grace.

✨ A beautiful way to align with this energy is through poetic contemplation. Read the poetic excerpts above and ask yourself how does this feel in my bones? What would it feel like to live this every day? When I stare at the ocean, what do I feel? When I stare at the night sky, what do I feel? What is that inner knowing within me? How do I access it more fully? How can I live more and more from that place?

✨ “Enlightenment is when a wave realizes it is the ocean” is pure Jupiter.

✨ Read my previous post on Jupiter’s upcoming transit for more info, including ways to invite this energy in.

Rumi understood what this transit offers. That fullness. That trust. That oceanic knowing.
and get it too.

I hope you receive the wisdom, growth, ocean presence and blessings.

Feel like you’ve been swimming upstream?

On June 1st, Jupiter, the planet of wisdom, growth, expansion, higher awareness, moves to exaltation in Cancer. In Jyotish, the Vedic sidereal system, when a planet reaches exaltation, it’s offering its purest, most potent energy.

This can bring a certain flow, a sense that the current is finally turning.

Cancer is a water sign, emotional, intuitive, nurturing. Jupiter here nurtures your internal knowing, your self-trust, your belief in possibility. It gives a certain ease, a feeling of being supported, a sense that life can be generous.

A few simple ways to welcome Jupiter’s gifts ~

🌕 Jupiter’s color is yellow
Wear it. Surround yourself with it. Yellow is warm, enlivening, the color of sunlight. Studies have shown that yellow encourages learning. It is an enlightening color.

🧭 Jupiter’s direction is Northeast
Face northeast when you meditate, pray, or sit quietly with yourself. If you can, put something meaningful in the northeast corner of your home — a plant, a candle, a picture of a teacher, a Jupiter Yantra, something that feels sacred to you.

🌊 Spend time near water when you can. A walk by the ocean, a long bath, anything that brings you into a sense of gentle flow. Cancer governs the tides. As a gaseous planet, Jupiter is motion. This transit invites you to that healing, life-affirming state of flow.

👩‍🍳Feed yourself and others. Cook with turmeric, yellow dal, golden milk. Jupiter in Cancer wants to nourish - with food, but also emotionally and spiritually.

🌻 Spend time on Thursdays, Jupiter’s day, doing something that feels holy, uplifting or expansive. Give something away. Learn something. Call a person who inspires you. Thank your teachers. Extend your meditation or prayers.

🍃 If you’ve been sitting on something you want to grow — a project, a practice, a relationship, a new direction — this is a good time to begin.

Starting June 1st, life should begin to feel a little more supported. In fact, I am already feeling it. Are you?

If you feel that in your body, that full-body Yes, that sense that life loves you, let yourself trust that. And let’s hope it brings peace 💛

Is it possible that someone wrote the story of you thousands of years ago? How can that be?

And yet, over the years, good friends, many of whom are scientists, engineers, lawyers (in other words, trained skeptics), were telling me their own Nadi Scroll reading was mind-blowingly accurate.

Recently, I was gifted a Nadi reading myself and also found it mind-bending. It was affirming and liberating - like seeing your life from heaven above, from the eyes of your ancestors, from the truth of the infinite.

Now, our friend Dr Q Moayad has written a book shedding light on this powerful practice. "Nadi Astrology, Decoding Your Ancient Indian Palm Leaf" gives a complete guide to Nadi Astrology, looking at the Maharishis who recorded millions of life paths, the relationship between karma and free will, and why your life has unfolded exactly as it has.

This book helps with questions like, Why do certain patterns keep repeating? Do we actually have free will? Is there something deeper directing the course of a life?

I received an advance copy and couldn’t put it down. Dr Q is a great writer, blending science, ancient wisdom and his own dramatic life story into an easy yet profound read.

Link is in my bio for all of you soul explorers and wisdom keepers.

Congrats Dr Q and thanks for the connection.

🙏🏽

Listen up women of this world. You ARE the Milky Way. You are born of the womb of creation, and those same heavenly waters are alive in you.

Broken people do not define us. We are the light, the love, the healing the world needs most right now. Let’s remember, reflect and rise together.

Share with a friend who needs reminding and let’s grow this remembrance in our world.

Thank you 🌼
