This full moon glows in Libra, sitting across from the sun in Aries. Full moons are always a time of integration, of navigating the polarity of two opposite signs, of exploding the binary by embodying the paradox of the axis. Aries is the sign of the individual, of the self—it’s catch-phrase is “I am.” Aries is the beginning, the birth of spring, the individuating into a contained and separate self. Libra, on the other hand, is the sign of the other, of relating and relationship, of partner and collaboration and working together.
Full Moon in Virgo Ritual + Writing Prompts: Devotion
This full moon fattens in Virgo, sign of the Virgin—the one whole unto herself—the devotee dedicated to the goddess—the small, daily acts of service that add up to a lifetime of reverence. It sits across from the Sun and Neptune, along with Jupiter and Mercury in Pisces, sign of the fish—swimming the grand cosmic ocean, the ending and beginning, the place where all of our individual drops eventually return, death, rebirth. The vast, veiled planes of spirit.

Full Moon Lunar Eclipse in Taurus Writing Prompts—Uncover
Taurus is fixed earth, the bull—the deep appreciation and pleasure of the body, the earth, incarnation. Scorpio, meanwhile, is everything beneath—beneath the earth, beneath the surface, beneath the veneer of society. Scorpio is the taboo, everything a culture represses and denies. Taurus is the earth unfurling in the height of spring; Scorpio the inward coiling and falling leaves of deep fall.
Full Moon in Aries Writing Prompts + Ritual: Deep Transformation
This full moon is a powerful—I mean powerful—time for release and for transformation. It will also bring a lot of intensity and an impulsive desire to act, and act now (occurring in the action-oriented sign of Aries, with Mars, planet of both aggression and getting shit done, in the mix to boot). There’s a lot of surface-movement energy afoot—but beneath that, the real current, the undertow under-pining all the tumult, is the deep, transformational, evolve-or-be-destroyed tide of Pluto’s underworld.

Full Moon in Aquarius Ritual + Writing Prompt—Shine
Welcome to Leo season, sun babies! Leo is often known as the drama queen, the performer, the one standing in the spotlight. But what Leo truly represents in its most evolved form, is the deeply individual, unique creative self-expression each of us, and only us, has to offer this world. The challenge here, is that Leo can sometimes come to depend on, to crave, the applause, the attention and approval of others. That’s why (in the lovely symmetry that is the zodiac), it sits across from Aquarius, who, on the other end of the polarity, teaches us to embrace our weird quirky uniqueness and own that authentic individuality without shame.
