Full Moon In Aries: Choose Your Own Adventure?

Oct 12, 2019, in Astrology, Horoscopes

Any Full Moon can come with a warning about sudden mood swings, emotional outbursts, and unnecessary personal drama. The Full Moon in Aries this Sunday at 20 degrees Aries is no exception. However, there are some factors that make this Full Moon potentially especially perilous… or possibly promising.

Large and important transits can signify major events in your life, but specific events are triggered by smaller and faster transits. If (for example) transiting Uranus has been messing with your natal Moon, it could destabilize the things and people that give you emotional comfort. But that’s a long and slow transit. It’s when transiting Mars and the Moon (again, for example) also trigger you natal Moon that the Big Event happens.

Having said that: there have been two ongoing major planetary transits making thing go wonky for a lot of people this year, and this Full Moon interacts with both of those.

First, the more dramatic aspect. As you likely know, the Saturn-Pluto conjunction has been an ongoing issue for many. This Full Moon is not going to be very helpful, as it is square Saturn and Pluto. In case of Pluto, that square is exact to within less than a degree. For many, issues from the last two or three years could be coming to a dramatic head.

The other major aspect that we’ve been dealing with this year is Jupiter square Neptune. Ideals have turned into dogma, and dogma has turned into delusion. Real News is dismissed as Fake News, and Fake News spreads like wildfire on social media. The good news about this Full Moon is that it is in a close trine to Jupiter — again, within less than a degree of exact. At the very least, that could make for a good time. It could also help “right the ship” as far as some of your beliefs that may be off the mark.

How to handle all this? I suggest picking whether the Saturn-Pluto conjunction or Jupiter at around 20 degrees Sagittarius. Then, lean into that portion of this Full Moon.

Or, you know, stay at home and hide under your bed. That’s how I’ll be handling it, personally.
