Full Moon in Aires
Pace Yourself. Simmer Like A Frog In The Bog
by MJ
Hello Harvest Moon, Happy Mabon! Welcome Fall and welcome Libra season! Wow, this is a shift!
Frogs are soaking in the cranberries. Plump barrels of pumpkins are popping up everywhere. Daylight is shrinking and the foliage is getting crispy. Summer heat lingers but the ache for baggy sweaters and long socks is real. Have we pulled them out yet? Yep. Started looking up apple cider recipes and thinking about what we are going to be for halloween? Duh.
This Full Moon occurs along the Libras-Aries access, asking us to balance our needs with the needs of our pals. Perhaps this means being more assertive, perhaps this means leaning in or letting go. It asks, so what do you need to feel more you? After all, the better you are at being you, the more present and authentically harmonious you can be in your relationships.
Oof, but hold on. This moon is also conjunct Neptune. Moons in Aries are already a little impulsive, but conjunct Neptune? A frog leaping into the dark (and hoping it lands in a puddle of floating cranberries). This aspect can be dreamy, but also emotionally confusing. We may feel indecisive and quite frankly, agitated.
That’s alright, it’s ok to slow down and pace yourself. We have supportive aspects from Uranus and Pluto here too (both sextile to the moon and trine to the sun), so take your time and simmer like a frog in the bog. You are resilient friend. As you simmer, slowly allow yourself to feel out where those personal threads of joy, passion, excitement may have been dropped in the bog and momentarily lost. The light of the full moon would like to make those threads glimmer again.
The tension?
Venus Retrograde in Scorpio next week brings a lot of intensity and depth to what we value and how we love. It’s potentially disruptive and restless. Repressed and unprocessed negative emotions may surface, but it is all part of the process.
The fun?
Mars moves into Leo right after this moon, and will feel like finally getting some gas in the car. Take action with boldness and flair. Do something creative. Rediscover inspiration. Move your body and move big.

“You May Feel Sluggish, But Hold Steady”
Tarot Pull for the Full Moon in Aries
by Tiff Inman
Surprise?! Unexpected realizations and responsibilities will come a-calling. What has been neglected, or feared? We want to present as capable and ready to take on all the things on our to do lists. But sometimes we’re scared because we have an inkling we may be falling short of our obligations.
The good part of the surprise is….once you clean up, all you have to do is maintain your spot. Don’t beat yourself up over missed due dates, falling down every once in a while.
You’re changing how you do things because situations outside of your control affected your reserves and routines. The cleanse of this moon is like a power-wash so brace yourself. You will feel squeaky clean ounce you wipe the water from your eyes.
You may feel a bit sluggish right now but hold steady. This is necessary to move onto a the next phase of being stable on your two feet.
