10.1 Full Moon in Aries: True to the Vision

Typically with a strong Aries signature on a full moon, we are in the mood to go for it and claim what’s ours. However, in this instance, things are not as straightforward as we might like them to be. You will be called to tap into your internal strength to fuel your vision of what’s possible, even in the face of circumstances that may cause you to question your power to manifest what you want. I know that clear cut answers are so much easier than the complexity you are facing down with this full moon. Aries energy works in broad strokes normally but with its ruler Mars currently retrograde through mid-November, you must slow down to attend to the subtleties and nuances that you might tend to gloss over when you move fast. 

With the recent Mars square Saturn (9/29), you got a strong dose of what your current limitations are. It’s also common to have run-ins with authority under this signature. This full moon illuminates more of the dynamics at play. The important thing to remember about increasing your awareness of current limitations is that they are not static. They’re always evolving, and those boundaries shift when you bring your light of awareness to them. You become aware of limitations to transcend them, not to be forever trapped at that point in time. 

Venus in Leo makes a nice trine to Mars, providing a constructive release valve for the fiery energy. Your relationships and friendships provide refuge and perhaps a needed motivation boost/attitude adjustment to just keep going. Utilize your sense of humor to take some of the pressure off of yourself. 

Mercury opposes Uranus, shedding some light on where we may be stuck on autopilot. Don’t be surprised if some long term goals suddenly get a makeover. These adjustments are needed and nothing to be afraid of. If you’ve been dealing with any anxious thinking loops, this aspect can help break the cycle. 

Questions to Ponder: Where can you best guard against forces challenging you so that your vision and passion can grow and flourish? How can you slow down and remember your original intention amidst any changes or limits you are bumping up against?
