A fiery full moon in Aries ignites our passions! This marks the halfway point of the astrological year, showing us how much we’ve grown as individuals. Aries energy highlights the self, so give your SELF some credit for how much you’ve accomplished! But at the same time- check your ego. It could be a bit inflated under this full moon. Tapping into our desires can light the path to further step into our purpose- especially if we lean into Libra season and ask how our energy can benefit others too. This is also known as the Blood Moon, marking a time our ancestors used to hunt as the autumn leaves began to change. Under this powerful full moon, moving our body is our greatest asset for release. Let that inner fire BURN!

We have a power-packed day in the Milky Way! The morning begins with the Virgo moon making her final connections. Tense angles to Neptune and Mars could start the day with agitation or confusion, but a trine to Pluto by midday allows us to emotionally alchemize. The most potent transit of the day is a conjunction between the sun and Venus- aka Venus Cazimi. This transit is incredibly heart-opening, and the surge of love it brings can cause major realizations in relationships and finances.

We can feel the anticipation building as we head into a potent and powerful astrological weekend. Tomorrow, Venus will pass through the heart of the sun before both planets plunge into Scorpio, but today, we wait for the magic to unfold. The waning crescent Virgo moon asks us to surrender. Let go of control and instead, focus on cleansing your energy to be open and receptive to whatever opportunities present themselves over the next week.

The forecast is fairly quiet this Thursday, providing a lull for integration and understanding. As the waning moon makes its final connection in Leo, we are blessed with sweet dreams. A supportive aspect to the sun and Venus asks us to start the day with love in our hearts. Most of us wake up under a void moon, allowing for a slow morning. There’s no use starting anything new until the moon enters Virgo around 9:30 AM PT.

Shadows come to light this Wednesday as Venus and the sun square Pluto. This tense trifecta marks a powerful turning point in relationships and in our sense of purpose- but this transformation might not come easy. As these three planets lock into a 90º angle, subconscious patterns are forced in the surface. It will be tempting to try to manipulate others to feel a sense of control. Instead, focus on what you can release in order to make way for new energy to be birthed. Remember- relationships are simply mirrors of our internal experience.

Balance is easy to come by today as feminine Venus harmonizes with masculine Mars. This transit brings ease between give and take, allowing us to find peace within our relationships. We’re able to recognize our individual needs while also considering the needs of partners, friends, and lovers. Relating to others feels natural today. It’s easy to find our confidence under the waning Leo moon. This phase asks us to release and surrender through joy.

Action! It’s easy to tap into motivation and move the needle today as the Libra sun harmonizes with Mars in Gemini. This airy trine asks us who we are and what we want. By reflecting on our true desires, taking aligned action will feel natural. The Last Quarter moon in Cancer brings an emotional purge. We wake up feeling a bit needy and sensitive as the moon connects with Venus and Neptune. But by the afternoon, the moon faces off against Pluto, bringing up intense emotions, fear, and potential power struggles. We must face our darkness in order to understand the power of our light.

The waning Cancer moon stays quiet for most of the day, inviting us to find a safe space to relax. We crave comfort and nurturing when the moon is in its home sign. As la luna comes into her peak release, we can release any pent up emotions too. Cleaning your home and clearing your physical space is favored. Late Sunday night, the moon connects with Uranus, marking a change in our mood. Stay open to new perspectives and observe feelings as they arise.

Desires could feel insatiable this Saturday as Venus squares Lilith. Our primal urges for pleasure can easily take over under this aspect, creating sexual tension. Tapping into our sovereignty and power can help us navigate this transit. The waning moon enters Cancer, where it’s most comfortable. We too seek comfort this weekend. Under this releasing moon, cleaning your home and finding safety in your surroundings is aligned.

The Gemini moon makes powerful connections throughout the day this Friday. We wake up under a Grand Trine between the moon, Venus, and Saturn. This aspect brings balance and wisdom into our relationships and finances. We’re emotionally aware of the lessons we’re learning and we can easily tap into respect for ourselves and others. An afternoon trine between the moon and sun gives us confidence and allows us to show up authentically in social settings.

How are you relating to others? Relationships are always powerful teachers, but especially so today. We start the morning under a square between the sun and Lilith, forcing us to listen to our bodily urges. There’s power in sharing what’s on your heart- especially as Venus and Saturn harmonize to end this Thursday. We can see relationships, finances, and beauty through a more sensible lens. Ask yourself: Can this stand the test of time?

It’s easier to see the big picture than the fine print today as Mercury opposes Jupiter. This is a powerful transit for brainstorming and sharing ideas with others, but not necessarily for making detailed plans. And with the general air of confusion we’re experiencing thanks to a square between Mars and Neptune, it’s probably best to tap into imagination and creativity, rather than trying to find clarity today.
