ARIES FULL MOON:
BECOMing MORE OF WHO WE ARE

by Juliana McCarthy

October 20, 2021 — The Aries Full Moon arrives on Wednesday at 7:56am Pacific Time, drawing our anger to the surface. We may notice our inner children throwing tantrums as we experience bursts of agitation and disharmony. We are confronting whatever is holding us back from peace and equilibrium as we learn to express fully our individual needs and desires.

Forming a conjunction to trouble-making Eris, we could find ourselves standing up and speaking our truth in unprecedented ways. Fearless clarity is imbuing our actions and perceptions—a welcome relief as we begin to emerge from Mercury retrograde.

Where have we allowed other people’s perspectives to instill unnecessary self-doubt? How can we better express our truth, with strong backs and soft fronts? Where is our anger helpful in knowing where our boundaries lie?

The influence of Mars and Aries can help us cut through confusion and find our simplicity and strength. We are becoming more whole and grounded in who we are, which in turn is improving our relationships. While some relationships may be falling away, we can let go with love and make space to cultivate connections that support us in this next phase of self.

With Jupiter trining Mars, we are feeling buoyant and optimistic in being ourselves—deeply feeling humans who are perfectly imperfect. We experience love, loss, elation, and despair. We can be like children who cry and yell, then drop the whole thing—smiling and returning to love after an epic release.

Over time, we are learning more and more that there is no shame in feeling deep emotions. If our hearts are tender, our seats connected to the Earth, and our crowns open to the sky, we can own our truth and embrace it. We have no need to convince others by deception because we finally trust ourselves.

ARIES FULL MOON ASPIRATION

On this Aries Full Moon, may we embrace our anger and desires, feeling confident in who we are. May we love all of our feelings without struggling against them, making us more available to each other.
