Aries Full Moon and the Rabbit Hole

 



It's been quite a hectic week for me (started school) and so this blog post is late.  Yesterday, the 29th September, there was a glorious full moon gracing our night skies. This is an Aries Full Moon which is highly energised and is a precursor to next month's eclipse season. 

Just have a look at the photo taken from the yard of my abode! Glorious, isn't it? This moon, people, is the final supermoon of 2023. A supermoon looks larger than our usual full moons due to the proximity of the Moon to Earth at the time of the full moon. 

An Aries full moon is a fiery one. The real star of the show is still Venus as she squares (90 degrees) Uranus in the Full Moon Chart. Given that Venus represents love, money or how you network with others, it is possible that this placement offers up challenges to do with finances or our relationships with significant others. A Venus/Uranus combination usually brings with it a 'flash in the pan' situation where you suddenly find yourself having to deal with a sudden (Uranus) romantic/monetary event. In terms of romance, Venus/Uranus meetings are exciting but not long-lasting, with more of a 'fleeting' encounter which fizzles out. The need for 'freedom' is very much a Uranus thing. So if you suddenly feel attracted to someone 'unusual', remember that the Aries Full Moon will encourage you to follow this up: take care here - it might upset the dynamics of other important relationships. 

If it describes some event of a financial nature, similarly, do consider the ramifications. This is not a good time to make any financial commitments on the spur of the moment. 

Mars, the planet associated with that which motivates us to act, is in a harmonious aspect with Venus, just 60 degrees away from Venus. The thing to remember is that Mars is in Libra, directly opposite the sign which it rules. Thus, the Aries Full Moon is ruled over by Mars who is, at the moment, not in a position to take any initiative (which Mars likes) as Libra is about maintaining harmony, rendering it somewhat indecisive. Are you feeling that 'I don't know what I should do, exactly....' feeling? That's Mars in Libra. 

As if this wasn't enough to give us brain fog, throw in a Mercury (communication) in Virgo (acute mental faculties) opposite Neptune (illusion/disillusion) in Pisces (I want to be one with everything). This is enough to throw us down the rabbit hole. Try to find the balance between being too skeptical and too idealistic. Balance is the key here. Talk about the Golden Mean!

So if you do feel the pull towards something or someone exotic, proceed with caution. remember that this may be a fleeting moment which could throw you into a quandary. All you need to do is to see things for what they are. Transient.

I hope you enjoyed reading this. 

Blessings, 

Cindy

The March Lunar Eclipse and Full Moon....and more

  Tomorrow's Full Moon is a lunar eclipse, heralding the eclipse season for 2024. It occurs at 08:00 and will not be visible from our part of the world.  One thing to note is that due to precession, the zodiac and the constellations are out of synch by about 30 degrees, so whilst we say that the Moon is in the sign of Libra, the Moon will appear in the sky with Virgo as its backdrop. For the scope of this chart reading, I will be referring to the Moon as being in the sign of Libra.  So how does this eclipse affect us mortals? By looking the chart, we assess which planet is making an aspect to another. Because the chart changes according to time and place (for example, in London, this eclipse occurs at 07:00, and therefore the Ascendant and Midheaven changes). The chart for this Full Moon is quite interesting. The most notable aspects are the Sun/Pluto sextile, the Venus/Jupiter sextile and the Moon/Pluto trine.  These are all harmonious aspects. Remember that this is a lunar eclips

New Moon in Leo.... and more (read on).

  Are you feeling the heat? Astrologically, a new moon is all about implementing new plans, bringing others to a close and setting new intentions. Although this is stated in each of the blog posts, they are not the same for each new moon in a year. A new moon in Cancer is not the same as a new moon in Pisces, though theoretically they are both water signs. What you may find is that if you keep a personal journal, during the Leo New Moons period the same issues generally tend to crop up. Of course, the planets are in different positions at any given new moon, when a seed is sown. Ask your gardener whether they would sow any seeds after the full moon...  This month's new moon  is in the fiery sign of Leo and occurs at around 13:30 on the 4th August. As such, a new moon in Leo focuses on the issue of creativity, as Leo is a sign associated with the heart and putting our ideas/creations out there into manifestation, and also being recognised for our works of art, be they ideas, or chil

Solar Eclipse and its links to 1501....

  And here it is... the chart for the New Moon in Aries, also a total solar eclipse. I've been reading a lot of different takes on this eclipse. Let me explain why there are different views on it.  Fact number one: different astrologers will have different takes on it depending on what they see in the chart. That is why astrology is not only a science, but also an art. This is why I suggest reading a variety of interpretations of astrological perspectives on this eclipse (or any other, for that matter) and see what you can take from it.  Fact number two: eclipses do not affect everyone in the same way. It makes sense that if you are the leader of an organisation, what you are dealing with may affect others. A prime example is the  current Prince of Wales' chart. Prince William was born on the day of a solar eclipse (I mentioned this in a few of my posts on this blog). This, in itself, is not unusual as eclipses do occur bi-annually. However, as the future King of England, it do
