As the week begins with the Full Moon Lunar Eclipse in Scorpio it becomes clear that this phase is not about creating change, but the true transformation of yourself and your romantic relationships. When you start your journey in love, you are still learning yourself what it all means and what you need from it. Yet, as time passes and you move through different relationships and lessons, it becomes clear what you truly need from a connection and from that special person in your life. This means that the type of relationship you have changes as well as how you view love. Usually, this is a process that takes time, one that cannot be rushed no matter how much you wish it could be. But occasionally, there are key moments that happen.
