We start the week on the heels of a powerful Aries Full Moon, one that both inspired us to take action and find the courage to do so, but also pulled at deep themes and emotions. If something shook up for you, use today’s Sun-Pluto energy to transform it.
I heard a lot of dramatic stories from people in the run up to the full moon, both from clients, friends, and readers. Life was coming at everyone fast. Emotions were coming up, anything from frustration, aggression, and anger to sadness. People had to navigate sudden events or deal with crises.
There’s an immediacy to Aries Moon energy. It’s like a baby crying in the other room or a siren going off. You have to deal with it now. So there’s something we may have been dealing with over the last week. There was no putting it off any longer. (If you missed my Aries Full Moon report, you can read it here.)
Although we’re coming off of the Aries Full Moon energies today as the Moon moves into Taurus, we may still feel that heightened state of alert in our body. So, how do we come down, relax, and take care of our bodies so we feel safe? A Taurus Moon likes care and comfort as well as good food.
That said, the Sun squares Pluto today, so even as we’re taking care of our basic needs, we may be dealing with shadow themes uncovered by the full moon — power, abuse, shame, and anything normally repressed or projected onto others.
In the week ahead, we’re continuing to come down from the full moon energies, but note that Mars in Libra is still touching on recent (and future) eclipse degrees. Mars is a trigger and we may continue to navigate interpersonal issues in our relationships. With Venus still in Scorpio, continue to be vulnerable and honest with what you need, especially from a relationship.
I’ll be discussing the astrology of this week and more in my Facebook Live today at 6 pm EDT. (3 pm Los Angeles, 11 pm London, 9 am Sydney on October 15, and 11 am in Auckland.) I also want to talk about healing and how we can use difficult astrology to open up into ourselves more deeply. If you can’t make the live broadcast, you can watch the replay on my Empowering Astrology YouTube channel.
