May 2033 full moon: Saturday 14 May in Scorpio
The May full moon is exact on Saturday, 14 May 2033 at 10:44 UTC, with the Moon in Scorpio and 100% of the disc lit.
Meaning
A full moon in Scorpio brings into the open something that was being handled privately: a debt, a suspicion, an attraction, a resentment with a date on it. With a Taurus Sun opposite, the steady surface is exactly what is under test. Saying the smaller true thing works better than the whole confession.

Questions about the May 2033 full moon
What sign is the May full moon in?
Scorpio, because at the moment of a full moon the Moon sits opposite the Sun and takes the facing sign. It advances by roughly one sign a month, so no two consecutive full moons repeat it.
What time is the May full moon in my country?
10:44 UTC is Universal Time. Take five hours off for New York, add one or two for Madrid, add ten or eleven for Sydney. When the instant falls near midnight your local date lands a day either side of 14 May 2033.
When is the next full moon after this one?
12 June 2033, in Sagittarius. Two full moons are 29 or 30 days apart, so the next one normally falls in the following calendar month; the table above lists every full moon of 2033.
What are you supposed to do on the May full moon?
Finish rather than begin: settle the debt, return what you borrowed, send the thing sitting in drafts. The disc reads full to the eye for about a day either side of 10:44 UTC on 14 May 2033, and practice allows that whole window. Starting things belongs to the new moon a fortnight later.
