Electricity is in the air to supercharge this year's full moon in May, which doubles as a lunar eclipse.

The Flower Moon will appear on May 5. This year, however, the 2023 full moon in May will also be a penumbral lunar eclipse -- when the moon passes into "the faint outer part of [Earth's] shadow," according to NASA -- reaching maximum eclipse at 1:22 p.m. ET and making this moon a "super" Flower Moon.
The Old Farmer's Almanac, which first began publishing the names for the full moons in the 1930s, recorded that some Native American tribes referred to the full Moon in May as the "Flower Moon" because of the flowers blooming across North America, signaling abundance after a cold, hard winter, according to NASA.
For similar reasons, other tribes reportedly named the moon based on the arrival of spring. For example, some northern Native American tribes referred to the May full moon as the "Budding Moon" or "Leaf Budding Moon" to celebrate the spring's new blooms. Some also called it the "Planting Moon" because it marked the time when seeds should be planted for the farming season ahead.

Best ways to manifest your dreams during the full moonThe zodiac sign for each full moon is determined by where the moon is positioned in the night sky relative to the different astrological signs. Each year, the moon will shift, resulting in different characteristics, according to Thomas.
This year, the Flower Moon lunar eclipse is positioned as a full moon in Scorpio, an intense emotional and powerful sign that will only be amplified by the power of the lunar eclipse. This is a period of breakthroughs, endings, or facing fears.
Full moon lunar eclipses in Scorpio will bring great attention to our resources, like material wealth, said Thomas. Emotions will run high, so avoid impulsive or rebellious behavior.

To make the best use of this intense energy, many astrologers believe that a full moon is a great time to manifest your dreams. Moreover, astrologers also believe that major events are likely to happen near or during lunar eclipses.
Thomas said that because Scoprio is a sign deeply focused on intimacy, vulnerability and rebirth, focus on feeling all of the feels.
