Since Friday is governed by Venus, let\u2019s see what the planets are up to, with an emphasis on the planet of love and money. <\/em><\/div>\n

October 22: Full Moon in Aries<\/strong>
Whenever the Moon is full it sits exactly opposite the Sun. That\u2019s how we get the beautiful inter-play between Light and Shadow. It\u2019s a time of manifestation and illumination; whatever is out of balance (Sun in Libra) now is revealed so that action (Moon in Aries) can be taken to modify or correct the situation. <\/p>\n

Considering today offers up a big fat Full Moon in me-oriented Aries, this day is much calmer than was yesterday. That\u2019s partly because the Moon has lost some of her steam by now, sitting as she is on the very last degree of Aries. That twenty-ninth degree is symbolic of a cosmic test: mastering the art of being true to yourself (Moon in Aries) without losing sight of the fact that there are billions of other selves (Sun in Libra) populating our world \u2013 and each one has a role to play in the unfolding cosmic Mystery. <\/p>\n

Cosmic lovers Venus and Mars are the guardians of this Full Moon, and it\u2019s interesting to note that they\u2019re both occupying the sign of penetrating Scorpio. This speaks to me of a quiet unity buried in the heart of this Sun-Moon opposition. Rather than default to knee-jerk reactions (which can be a shadow trait of the cardinal energy operating through Aries and Libra), Venus retrograde and Mars invite us to delve deeper into Scorpio\u2019s waters, in search of a more beneficial response to what will surely present itself as a familiar situation. <\/p>\n

I refer to a familiar situation because this is actually a Blue Moon; it\u2019s the second Full Moon in a row that we\u2019ve had in Aries. So there\u2019s likely to be a Groundhog Day feel in the air, some kind of hangover from the previous Full Moon. This gives us another shot at walking that fine line between honouring the needs of the Self without pushing it into ego-driven behaviour. At the same time, the Sun sits on Libra\u2019s last degree as a poignant reminder that you serve no one by abandoning your needs in favour of everyone else\u2019s. Libra energy teaches us that there needs to be an awareness of Self if we are to relate to others in meaningful and authentic ways.<\/p>\n

Might this Full Moon offer an entirely new meaning of what it is to be self-centred? Since Libra and its ruler Venus are intimately connected with love I can pray that Love floods each heart, just as this Aries Moon floods the night with Light. And perhaps self-centredness will become synonymous with heartful self-awareness.<\/p>\n
