OCTOBER FULL MOON - ARIES

AN ARIES AFFIRMATION

“Vigilant but unafraid, I forge ahead.”

HARNESSING THE CELESTIAL POWER OF THE ARIES FULL MOON

Look up at the sky at 1.56am AEDT on Thursday 21 October and you will see the white aura of the Aries full Moon – a Moon that is undoubtably known for one word… Action.

Aries is a powerful and energetic zodiac sign characterised by the archetype of a warrior. It is a sign known for its independence, strong-will and pioneering mindset. And not to mention a courage that is second to none!

Despite taking place towards the end of the year in 2021, the Aries full Moon is all about new beginnings. It offers us an opportunity to start afresh in the parts of our life that haven’t worked out as we had planned or are taking a detour from what we had envisaged. Aries is ruled by Mars, a planet that represents our approach to life and energy in the natal chart. So this full Moon is the perfect opportunity to consider what aspects of our life need a revive and a fresh injection of energy.

At the time of the Aries full Moon, we may feel more impulsive, rebellious or competitive than usual. It is also not uncommon for us to overreact or revert to childlike behaviours. Take the time to stop and recognise any of these challenges that may be showing up for you at this time. Let them be, for like the full Moon, these too shall pass. Instead, take the time to consider subtle shades of grey and overcome tendencies for black-and-white thinking. It is also extra important to stop and consider the viewpoints of others at this time, because sometimes in the pursuit of success, we can miss key points that others can see.

Once you have determined what areas of your life are in need of a refresh, like a true warrior, set a map to get there, unleash the wind in your sails, and forge ahead with no return.
