Aries Full Moon

Element: Fire
Window: October 12 – 14, 2019
Exact: October 13 – 5:59 PM Eastern

There’s always an extra bump of intensity with the full moon. Emotions run deeper, relationships may take on a sharper tension and instinctual knowing is very keen.   So here we are with the full moon in Aries, the archetypal energy whose ideas of what is true is often rooted firmly and unflinchingly in his or her belief system.

Aries is the most individuated of all the Gates of Awareness so it can be expected that we will be looking out for Numero Uno at this time.  Ah, but WAIT.  Lest we forget, Aries adds a unique energy – that of the Protector.  It’s such a unique archetype because at first you think of Aries is the one who might push others out of the way to be first, to win at all costs.  Then, here comes the Aries energy of Defender.

What does this mean for you?  While you might feel that during the Aries full moon that your way is the right way, that you have the magic keys to the kingdom, and that you will defend that belief system to the ends of the earth, there is more.  What it also means is that as people who come into your world begin to support your beliefs, you will protect and defend them as well.

Here’s a very important aspect to this time:  since we are on the sun in Libra/full moon in Aries axis, we can use this time to learn more about ourselves through relationships. Our deepest learnings come from our relationships as we see reflected back to us who we are.  We can also see who it is we are and who we want to be both in and out of relationship.  It’s a time to open to seeing ourselves through others’ eyes.

Here are some topics that you might consider during the Aries Full Moon window:

How do you see your “Protector self” emerging now?

How does your “Protector self” react to those whose belief systems differ from yours?

How will you reframe in yourself what you see reflected in others?
