The intensity of this full moon brings an enterprising perspective and a connection to your inner drive and ambition. Remember this feeling and commit to the endurance and steadfastness required to see your initial spark through to the finish line. A fire is being lit under you, and you will have time to develop it further with the astrology of the next few months. Don’t be daunted by big energy.
Something that you thought was one thing reveals itself to be something else entirely, likely causing some fissures in your relationships. Probably spectacularly so with the bold aspects of this full moon. I’m not going to lie, there is a reckless and confrontational vibe to it. It’s a dynamic convergence of forces that will require you to properly direct your vital energies lest you start a forest fire you can’t contain. Somewhere in your life you need courage and that vital spark to get on with it if you’ve been delaying something or getting in your way.
If you can tap into your wise inner self amidst the strong feelings whipping around, there is plenty of support to take the high road and have this full moon be a galvanizing force to propel you out of any fear or toxicity you’ve been putting up with. You are not in the mood to put up with anything, and while this can be destructive in relationships as pure impatience or reactivity, it can also be a litmus test of what’s ok and what’s not for you. You are the one who gets to define that. Keep in mind that others are going to be defining what works for them too so give grace if you or others are expressing themselves in clumsy, cranky ways. It’s a lot to process and verbal communication has some severe limitations. If you need to have a difficult conversation with someone, go on a walk, move your bodies to release some of the excess energy to support a productive exchange.
Because this full moon is ruled by Mars, which is slowing down to start its retrograde journey December – February through Leo and Cancer, your desires and actions are under scrutiny. You will likely see where you are not aligned with what you want and what you are doing. This could create dissonance which can feel uncomfortable. Use your body to sense what is authentic and what feels off. Remember that with whatever shifts or upsets occur, you will have (and likely need) a few months to work through the dynamics to finish a chapter before you move on to the next phase.
Questions to Ponder: What passions are surfacing that I want to explore? Where do I need more courage to take the next best step for something very important to me? How can I be clear and compassionate when I clarify boundaries with others?
