Full Moon in Aries 2024

Merry Meet and Welcome to you Magickal Souls!!!!

So it's time to think about the Full Moon in Aries which will reach the peak of its energy/strength around 17th October (time-zone dependent). This particular Full Moon always occurs during Libra season as they are opposite signs and the sign of the Full Moon is always the opposite to the season.

Something interesting about this Full Moon in Aries is that it is the first Full Moon after Mabon/Autumn Equinox. This is also harvest season, bridging the time between the middle harvest celebration and the last natural harvest celebration.

Full Moon's are great for reviewing how far we've come since the last New Moon but also since the New Moon that occurred in the same sign. So don't be afraid to look back at the intentions us may have set back then allow this Full Moon to illuminate the obstacles that are stopping us from achieving our intentions. Illuminate and release them so they don't bother us any more.

The Full Moon in Aries can affect your sleep to the point where we can't sleep, and/or feel restless and wide awake. It might be a good idea to use this time to journal about the obstacles we face and the what action we can take to overcome them.

Remember that the Full Moon in Aries is happening while the Sun is in Libra so the themes of this sign are also tied into this Full Moon. Relationships, balance, self-care, and looking within our own hearts for the wisdom that is already held there. This may be a highly charged emotional time so it's important to prioritise self-care and that any decisions are not made from a rash, non-thought-out mental place.

The Full Moon in Aries is a good time to find clarity on what needs to be released permanently from our lives so perhaps it would be a good idea to write down what obstacles we face to work out what we can release. If something has left us feeling scared to do it, now is the time to take action towards doing it and achieving something new. It doesn't matter if it's one thing or a series of smaller actions, as long as it brings you closer to it.

So let's dive into how the Full Moon is likely to affect us as a community. I've created my own spread and used the

What is the biggest obstacle being brought to our attention with this Full Moon?

Fear

Fear can be the thing that stops us from doing aything in our lives, to the point where we stay in a stagnant way of life.

But what exactly are we fearing? That we're not good enough? That we'll only fail if we try? That we're undeserving of success? So here's an idea: what if you are successful? What if you don't fail? What if you are good enough? You'll only know if you try to push through your Fear.

Fear can either make us walk away from our intentions or freeze us moments away from actually achieving them.

Regardless of what our Fear is, it's time for us to take back power over our lives.

What action can we take to overcome and release it out of our way?

The Dragon

The Dragon comes to say, "Be like me! Be the powerful Creature you truly are! Be filled with the strength you already have!"

So if we are to emulate Dragon energy, it seems like we have to believe in ourselves, which can be easier said than done. But at the same time, if not believing in ourselves has led us nowhere, what else can we do? The only option left is to try to build up our sense of self-confidence and see if that changes the direction of our lives.

We can't keep hold of that self-doubt and try again when that's what we've been doing in the past, because that's the definition of insanity. So we have to step away from the crazy past and attempt something different.

How can we illuminate which area of our lives needs more balance?

Burden

We can illuminate where we need more balance by looking at where most of our energy goes, the area that we feel most burdened by.

If this is spending time with family, you don't have to see them every day or every weekend. Our friends are also important but so is taking time for ourselves with no-one else. Or maybe it's that we want to spend more time with family but we struggle to fit it in our schedules.

We have to consider what makes us feel drained or dread, because this is how our lives show us the imbalance. The phrase "All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy" fits here since we can't be all about work without losing other parts of our lives.

How can we connect with our emotional intuition to deepen our self-care practice?

The Mystery

With this card, it's all about connecting to the Unknown, the Mystery. If we've never consciously tried to practice self-care, then we don't know what works for us. We have to try things that we're not familiar with, that are mysterious to us.

We can't force this connection either, as it has to flow naturally like a river though a mountain range. Just as the river trusts it will make its way to where it needs to go, so too do we need to trust that we'll find the right self-care practice(s) that will deepen our emotional intuition.

We cannot always have the knowledge we want to have so our only option available is to have faith that we are on the right path to truly practice self-care.

So Fear is holding is back in some way and we need to leave it behind by channelling our inner Dragons so that we can un-Burden ourselves and connect with the Mystery. Well, that seems simple but appearances can be deceiving because Fear is not an easy thing to deal with. Neither is un-Burdening ourselves or trusting the Mystery, especially when we're not used to doing either of them.

But that could be the lesson of this Full Moon in Aries that wew can tap into and take into the next couple of weeks on a short-term basis or across the next six months until the next New Moon in Aries.

I hope this has inspired you to look at every part of life, where you hold the most fear and burdens. If you'd like a more personal look at how this Full Moon in Aries could influence your life, my diary and inbox are open.

Peace and love to all!!!!
