Taurus Full Moon Miniscopes
Taurus Full
Moon Miniscopes
Growth from Compost.
The Full Moon falls at 24º Taurus, 4:28 PM ET on November 15th.
As we navigate the depths of Scorpio Season, we are given a Full Moon in Taurus to bring us back to Earth – the place between Heaven and Hell. This Full Moon is one that illuminates everything we have been through over the last few weeks and touches on what's to come. Changes have been made, directions have been altered, and perspectives have shifted.
There’s a strong flow of energy that sweeps in to give us the answers we seek at this lunation. The accumulation and potency of this Full Moon seems so powerful that its energy will feel buzzing. Luckily, the Moon in its exalted state will prepare us. The Sun in Scorpio shines its light on the Moon in Taurus, where we find the power in these polarities – ownership. We are called to reclaim our power and stand our ground. However, there are strong oscillations between the Taurus and Scorpio axis. A see-saw between celestial bodies tells us that growth happens but not in the extremes. We can’t keep being pulled in two different directions. We are called to return home — back to ourselves and the garden we have long neglected. It is time to till the soil again.
The Moon joins hands with Uranus. There may be jolting moments that create a bit of inspiration or excitement around this lunation. The Moon/Uranus conjunction in and of itself is already very magnetic and electric. We can be push toward acting on our values in new and innovative ways. Spontaneity and risk-taking may actually be rewarded at this time, as Uranus wants to see us move beyond the status quo. Unpredictable behaviors are likely. What we choose to do now may even shock/surprise us. There is no question that change is in the air.
With Venus ruling this Full Moon, we can feel this desire to find strength in our values. It will square the Lunar Nodes, so we could be confronted by the limitations of our growth. If we sit in the possibility, we can find that will move beyond any obstacles that stand before us. This may require us to dig deeper than we have in the last few weeks.
Mars is continuing to slow down. The actions we take now will be catalysts to greater overall change and evolution in our lives individually/collectively. However, they will take time. This should inspire us to making moves toward what we desire and believe in. With that, at times, we may find that the best course of action is simply allowing the shedding of old skin. Mobilize toward a new future.
Re-engage with your senses at this Full Moon and get back to the Earth. We are rising out of the shadows and into the clouds, but we must first touch the ground again. This is only the beginning of what’s to come.
If you have any personal planets in your chart at 19º to 29º, you will feel the effects of this Full Moon the most. Especially those with strong Fixed placements. So, let’s break this down by sign! Always read Sun, Moon, and Rising.
ARIES TO CANCER
Aries & Aries Rising
Aries now is the time to flex your skills and stand your ground. This Full Moon will have your mind on resources, self-worth, and value. You can help to get yourself in a good position. But be your own advocate.
This Full Moon is in your 2nd House, so your focus can be turned toward resources. Are you valued for your work? What is your compensation like, even outside of income? Some of you may be looking for a raise, promotion, or change to your financial picture. Others of you may thinking about how to use the resources you have differently (tangible or otherwise). Use this Full Moon to push that forward for you. The Sun is in Scorpio, so it make ask that you dig deeper to find the right solution to whatever problem may arise! Remain grounded in your approach, but charge ahead knowing that you can grow an abundant garden from all that you decide to plant. There is a major theme around personal value that creeps up. You need to see yourself differently — own every facet of your talents and your experience. You are valuable. You are worthy. Not because someone says you are or because of what you have, but just simply because you exist.
Uranus will oppose the Scorpio Sun, creating an unpredictable flavor to this Full Moon. It may make us a bit more impulsive or feel chaotic in general. However, it can be extremely inspiring and jolt us out of stagnation. You could end up rerouting yourself or your plans in a way that leaves you feeling more refreshed in the end. Know that if there is an issue with resources that pop up, it will be temporary. Try not to be pulled off course by jolting news.
Use this lunation to reflect on your values, morals, and beliefs. Also, take stock of what you own and what resources you can obtain. See what could use changing, reimagining, or refocusing. You will be making major changes to how you handle personal and shared resources in the near future. Your efforts are not in vain.
Taurus & Taurus Rising
Taurus, there is a Full Moon in your sign! This is important and points to the New Moon we experienced in your sign earlier around May of this year. Think back to what you started around then and how you are carrying a similar theme. Perhaps you are ready to start a new cycle for yourself or pieces are starting to come together!
This lunation falls in your 1st House, bringing you back to your place in this world. Who are you? What do you want? You have been dealing with eclipses in your sign and oppositions from Uranus, so you may have been shedding old skin in order to release what isn’t working for you. This Full Moon will give you a chance to find what WILL work for you. You get to decide how you live your life and make strides in building a new you. Now is the time to be unapologetically yourself. Celebrate your individuality. Take pride in where you are right now. It is time to call back your power!
There can be sparks that may also burn out of control if we aren’t careful, especially as Uranus opposes the Sun. This adds false urgency, surprises, and whirlwind energy to the lunation. You could act without really thinking things through or moving too fast. Try to slow down. Be intentional and not get swept away by the buzzing feeling. It can inspire you but don’t misstep in the process of trying to actually make a progressive forward leap. Know that you may be the one that acts more out of character or surprises people during this Full Moon.
Use this Full Moon to work on yourself and focus on your needs. See what needs to be adjusted or refined. Where could you benefit from being more gentle with yourself? Where could you be more disciplined? How can you see yourself more clearly? You can make great strides in standing out and allowing yourself to be seen and heard. You are on a path toward really making shifts in your identity and overall life.
Gemini & Gemini Rising
You are being pulled into a need for rest and relaxation. You have been going nonstop for quite some time, and now you’re being asked to slow things down. The Moon is in your 12th House. There are important endings afoot now.
This Full Moon is perfectly positioned in your 12th House, so right now is a time to find a balance in work, pleasure, play, and rest. Work quietly behind the scenes and slow down. You are turning inward and focused on preserving your energy. You know you will be expending a lot of it soon. The 12th House can bring insights that we were not privy to before. So, you may discover information that was hidden from view. Now is a time to listen to your intuition and focus on how to best navigate quietly. If you need a respite, take it! Additionally, this area of your chart is about following your intuition and trusting the unseen. Listen to your inner magic. Some doors may close for you, but new ones will soon open.
Uranus will oppose the Sun and join the Moon, creating some thunderbolts and electricity now. You may feel a bit overwhelmed, overworked, or just a bit directionless. Uranus is an unpredictable force. Be careful of over-scheduling yourself and know your limits. Alternatively, Uranus could be a driving force of inspiration, but may make you act too quickly or too soon without giving anything much thought. Take time to think before acting now. Not everything is as urgent as it seems.
Use this Full Moon to focus on the places that you escape or choose to ignore. See what needs to come to a close and what needs to be expanded. Make peace in the quiet. Find power in resolution. Explore new areas of faith, belief, and spirituality — but also be ok with not knowing or having answers. You are on the precipice of closing a chapter and starting a whole new one. What is needed to fully walk through that door?
Cancer & cancer Rising
I know you don’t always like to ask for help, but this Full Moon will have people showing up for you left and right! The amount of support you have is uncanny. You are making new friendships and maybe saying goodbye to old ones that aren’t as solid as they used to be.
With this lunation hanging out in your 11th House, you will be looking at your connections and friends as a way to help you move ahead. You may even just want to catch up with people, feeling a little more social than normal. The Moon will be subconsciously drawing you out more. You are realizing that community is becoming increasingly important to you, and you may be trying to find where you want to align yourself. Budding friendships become lasting ones, and old friends are showing up left and right. Bask in this! People are showing you love, and you deserve that. Support seems like magic. You are recognizing that you can’t do things alone. You need others. Co-create. Collaborate. Connect!
Uranus will oppose the Sun in Scorpio, so you could have an unexpected conversation with a friend (or friends) that leaves you feeling excited or inspired! Alternatively, you could be swept up in collective narratives that lead you to take action or act more spontaneously. Whatever it is, there is a whirlwind brewing. So take a second to slow down and reflect before leaping. The leap can be good and yield some greater opportunities or results, but jumping before you are ready can leave you feeling unsafe or disoriented. Uranus is electrifying, so there is no shortage of excitement or buzzing now.
Use this Full Moon to reflect on your goals and future visions. See where you are and ask for support where it matters. Don’t allow yourself to fall victim to pleasing people. Learn to find the community and friendships that are worthy. Invest in the relationships that challenge you to grow. Your hopes and dreams can become a reality when you genuinely ask for help. You are finding your strength again.
LEO TO SCORPIO
Leo & Leo Rising
You have been working hard lately. This Full Moon in your 10th House is asking you to reframe your thoughts around your direction in life, your career, and what you want in the end from all of it. Your mind will be on work and your goals in the coming year. This is the start of something new!
This Full Moon will bring you to new heights! It falls in your 10th House, so you have the chance to plant seeds in your career or make important moves in your life. You are becoming more aware of your direction and what you want! With the Sun in Scorpio, you are asked to recognize what is most important to you. You will have to dig a little deeper to discover what you truly want. Nothing you are doing is in vain. The right people are taking notice. If you do change jobs or careers, you may find that the work you want to do will be something completely different or distinct. Perhaps that is the change you want, too! Alternatively, some of you may make discoveries about your passions that drive you into a new field or up the ladder into a new role/position. Whatever it is, a career or work-related matter seems to be at the forefront of your mind.
You may be embarking on a bigger journey that course corrects you or puts you on a different path than you have imagined. This is especially true as Uranus opposes the Sun. You may be feeling a bit overwhelmed or like you need a break, perhaps you may also feel like you are biting off more than you can chew. Almost as if things are moving so fast, and you can’t slow them down. However, this energy can support big leaps of faith and the sort of fresh start you have been waiting for. You may not have all the answers, but in some ways, you don’t need to. Some of you could be feeling pulled between priorities with work and home. If that is the case, know that this is temporary and clarity will come in the days after this Full Moon.
As there is so much happening around this Full Moon, use this time to truly reflect on where you are. Are you happy at work? What needs changing? Are you doing what makes you happy? Take steps to get what you want out of your life. Redirect your path. Ask for the promotion. Find new employment. Witness the dynamics at work and then assess your next moves. It is time to lean in and go after what you want.
Virgo & Virgo Rising
You are reaching new heights! You have recently taken a leap of faith, and you know that there is no way you can go back now! Doors of opportunity open and possibility awaits — a portal into something new. It is time to grow, grow, grow! You are being asked to expand past your current limitations. Whatever your goal is, now is the time to make sure you are fully aligned with it.
With this Full Moon in your 9th House, you are actively growing and trying new things! You are taking the experiences you have had and applying them future-forward. Now is a time to be bold and optimistic about the journey that lies ahead. The Moon will make sure that you are grounded in your approach while remaining open to the beautiful changes that life can bring! Flexible structures. Here, you will see that your world is shifting. The 9th House is about limitless potential. You realize the world truly is your oyster in this realm, and you can make what you want out of it. You will likely see your goals more clearly than you have in a long time and thus change your priorities in achieving them. Nothing is too far out of reach. All it takes is a little faith.
With Uranus opposed the Sun, you could also misspeak or talk without thinking. This could lead to some conflict or overreactions. Additionally, it may make you jump the gun and decide on something without having all the information in front of you. Of course, this may not be the case entirely, but knowing that the possibility is there means slowing down and exercising your innate thoughtfulness. One last way this could manifest is just through being incredibly busy or people reaching out to you left and right. This may have you feeling excited but maybe overwhelmed with so much happening around you — even if it isn’t impacting you directly. You don’t have to always have the answers nor are people always looking for them either. Just focus on what is right in front of you to find calm in the chaos.
Use this Full Moon to assess the big picture. Where could you use more adventure in your life? You could feel a push and pull of acting immediately — give things some time to settle. You will see that you are on the brink of a new journey, one that allows you to take the lead. You can explore new perspectives, educate yourself and seek out more spontaneous experiences. Nothing is perfect, but you can enjoy every moment that is set out before you. No time is wasted when you truly are living.
Libra & Libra Rising
It is time to rely on those you trust intimately. This Full Moon is very healing for you and can bring you close to a partner or friend. Now is the time to share your resources, your fears, your desires, and your motivations. Your 8th House is being activated, so nothing is off-limits.
The Full Moon in your 8th House, opening doors for resources that have been untapped or previously hidden. This could be emotional or material. Some of you may find out about an unexpected gain, whether through you or a partner, perhaps an inheritance, or some sort of windfall — especially with Uranus being so prevalent. Alternatively, you may find that you are working toward paying off debts and feeling more secure — that you don’t owe anything to anyone. This could also apply to how you feel about emotional debts, almost washing your hands of old situations or people that no longer serve you. This Full Moon may also bring about a transformation. One that has been a long time coming. In some ways, it will feel like a re-emergence — a butterfly coming out of its cocoon after a long period of reflection, healing, and dealing with shadows that have sat beneath the surface. Becoming more intimate and preserving your inner peace will be of the utmost importance.
Uranus will oppose the Sun, adding an unpredictable and spontaneous nature to the lunation. We could see non-issues being blown out of proportion or feel temporarily overwhelmed by something. However, learning to relinquish what you don’t have control over will help. This energy asks that you maintain a big-picture perspective and not get caught up in the moment. Some of you may see an unexpected gift, resource, debt, or bonus pop up now.
Use this Full Moon to break bad habits. Shine a light on the shadows in your life and face your fears. Open up about things more intimately with people you trust and allow others to more deeply support you. Reframe your financial picture and focus on ways to alleviate a scarcity mindset. Even as the material resources may ebb and flow, there will be plenty of opportunity for a fresh start. Reclaim your power. This is only the beginning.
Scorpio & Scorpio Rising
The focus on “me” vs “we” has been very prevalent lately. Autonomy is important, but so are the relationships you cultivate. You can do a lot on your own, but sometimes you need to be reminded that you don’t have to. There are close relationships that want to help you and support you.
Now, a Full Moon enters your 7th House. You will likely see dynamics shift between you and someone you are close with. Some of you may dissolve broken or irreparable relationships, while others will get closer — forming impenetrable bonds. You are seeing the value in the give and take and understanding your boundaries in a new way. If you are seeking out a new relationship, it is likely you will find it. Alternatively, the relationship you’re working on could be one with yourself. Sometimes we think that we need to find “wholeness” through others and forget that we are whole on our own. So, consider this Full Moon an exploration of what you need, deserve, and desire. Understanding your boundaries and seeing how you fit into the picture will be pertinent. With the Moon in Scorpio, it seems that sharing a part of your life with others can lead to greater intimacy. Find even just a few people you trust and open up. Receptivity is huge now.
Uranus will oppose the Sun. This may make things feel electric or slightly chaotic. However, you are no stranger to this energy given that it has been opposite your sign for the last several years. Uranus is unpredictable and acts as a wildcard, so you may find that people around you are acting out of character or more impulsively. Try not to get swept up in all of it. This is just a temporary aspect. Positively, it could bring unexpected people into (or back into) your life.
Use this Full Moon to focus on the others in your life. Figure out the dynamics and how you show up to your relationships — and how the other people show up for you, too. This is all about the two-way street. You could have to make decisions or find a conclusion. Create boundaries where necessary and allow for the right relationships to flourish for you. You are on the brink of so much change.
SAGITTARIUS TO PISCES
Sagittarius & Sagittarius Rising
Knowing your limits can be important. This month you are being tasked with closing doors, learning to be better to your body, and focusing on the things in your immediate present. You will be taught the value of your needs and the difference between service/sacrifice. We can’t save everyone, or really anyone, other than ourselves.
This Full Moon falls in your 6th House. Here, you are told to prioritize your well-being more. Your health, work, daily life, and routines all fall in this area of your chart. You may have seen major changes in this more mundane setting, yet you may not have realized how impactful the small shifts have been. This Full Moon opens a door of opportunity for you (or even several), where you can take more risks with work, find better solutions for your health, and retake control of your life. Consider this a chance to organize the chaos. You are settling into new routines, so be mindful of what you begin. You can kick old habits and start new exercise regimens. The call is to bring your physical self to the forefront. Alternatively, some of you may see the Full Moon manifest through your work environment with co-workers, your job tasks, or even the job itself. If your job is pushed out, then know that something similar is coming along. If not, then perhaps there are ways to update your work/life balance.
Take time to carve out some solitude and try not to overload your schedule. Value your peace. Uranus will oppose the Sun adding some thunderbolts or making waves. You could feel pulled between responsibility and your rest. Perhaps you are finding things to be a bit overwhelming or your body is reacting to the stress you are under. Uranus has been revolutionizing how you approach work, health, and your daily routines. Consider this another opportunity to engage in that revolution or change. Allow whatever comes up to be a motivator, not an inhibitor. If you have been meaning to get some professional care, definitely reach out and make the appointment to jumpstart a better wellness regimen.
Use this Full Moon to focus on your health and body. Take control of the details and mind the little things. Create better boundaries with work and cultivate a work/life balance. Seek a job change or shift in responsibilities if you are not happy with what you are doing. Find new clients if you work for yourself and implement new routines.
Capricorn & Capricorn Rising
It is time to restore your sense of optimism! This Full Moon comes in to remind you that life can be fun and playful! In the last year, you have learned the value of personal joy and collective happiness. Now, as this lunation ushers in a new pathway, you can walk forward in a more focused manner.
The Full Moon will highlight the area of your chart that rules play, joy, happiness, pleasure, love, and creation. This is about leading with your heart, listening to that inner child, and making time for more fun in your life. This is very welcome. This lunation reminds us that life is something to experience. You can manifest your heart’s desires into reality, simply by taking more risks on yourself. What makes you happy? What do you love? This is a time to explore new ways to play and seek out pleasure. Let loose. Because this is a place of creation, some of you may be creating something entirely new: a project, art, music, relationship, or even the conception of a child. Alternatively, consider this lunation a chance for you to sit in the spotlight a bit. It is okay to be recognized for your efforts and to celebrate your successes.
Take a risk and show your true colors to those that you consider being your friends and loved ones. Uranus will oppose the Sun. This adds some whimsy and excitement now. You could feel that your confidence is shaky or that you are not expressing how you feel correctly. Uranus is itching to help you break free from limitations and choose to take that plunge, that leap. You have to put yourself out there, even if it seems hard so that people can see the real you…all of you. You can’t hide anymore. Positively, this can be a very inspiring creative time for you! So lean into this aspect.
Use this Full Moon to play, create and get in touch with your inner child. Repair the relationship with your self-image and feel more confident in how you express yourself. Open your heart up and show people what you are made of. Take new risks and really put yourself out there. This is a time to be seen and take up room like you never have before. You are worthy of this.
Aquarius & Aquarius Rising
This Full Moon is going to have you more withdrawn than usual. You are turning your focus away from the outside world — and becoming a little more introverted (yes, even you need time to recharge). You are rediscovering your inner sanctum and establishing a new home base.
The 4th House rules family, home, roots, and your emotional foundations. Here, the Full Moon will turn your attention to these areas. Perhaps you are looking to do some work around the house — renovations or redecorating. Maybe you are just on a house hunt overall, looking for new places to call home. Some of you may be finding more quiet time or family time, while seeking solitude after a busy few months. Whatever it is, you are bringing it all back to your center. Home is where the heart is. Family could take a central focus as there may be changing dynamics in this area of your life. Over the last year or so, you have been redefining what family truly is, or means to you. You have been putting down stronger roots and really focusing on your emotional well-being. This Full Moon tells you all of that work has a purpose. You can rejoice in the power you have called back and honor the peace you have created. This may be one of the best times of the year for you to connect with your ancestors, inner foundations, and emotional desires as well. If you want to buy, sell, or rent — this lunation can be quite helpful!
With Uranus opposite the Sun, you may feel pulled in two directions. There may be surprises that pop up, and in turn, this could electrify things. Perhaps shifting your home/family dynamics (is there a new member coming, or is your family unit restructuring/changing?). You may feel the need to nest or ground yourself. This is a call to withdraw a bit. This opposition helps you bring an end to something that may have been holding you back — or it could allow you to listen to your intuition more.
Use this Full Moon to bring it all back home. Spend time with your family. Redecorate or reorganize your home. Prepare yourself for a move or a change in the home/family front. Focus on your emotional well-being and tend to places where you feel more vulnerable. Create stability in the quiet and make time for personal reflection. You redefine your peace and carve out space for you to process how you feel. Your foundations are changing.
Pisces & Pisces Rising
You spend a lot of time taking care of others, but never enough time taking care of yourself. This Full Moon will fall in your 3rd House, asking you to use your voice and speak up. This is about walking away from overthinking. You deserve to say what is on your mind as much as anyone else.
The Full Moon in your 3rd House allows you to learn, adapt, process, and integrate. This is about how you communicate not only what you are saying — but also what you are hearing. Part of shifting your perspective comes through dialogue and the conversations that you have with others. Your voice is your power. Now, it is time to learn how to use it. Through the 3rd House, we learn to express ourselves and say what is on our minds. Sharing is an integral part of your personal exploration — and how you choose to share is important. There can be a feeling of people inundating you with messages around the Full Moon. Perhaps you may hear news that you were not expecting. You can start a new journey for yourself by applying the skills you have in new ways. Your local community will figure strongly, especially those close to you. They are here to uplift you and support you, but they won’t know what you need unless you tell them. Asking for help isn’t weak – especially if it is meant to help you grow.
Uranus will oppose the Sun. So, it seems that you may get unexpected news that shakes you up a bit. There may be information that comes out that changes your perspective. It may come from a friend, sibling, neighbor, or someone in your local community. Alternatively, you could find yourself in high demand or spreading yourself too thin. Be careful of biting off more than you can chew. Alternatively, you could get an unexpected offer for a job, client, or creative project! Uranus is unpredictable, so it is hard to know how it will manifest in your life completely. One of the best ways Uranus can manifest is through inspiring ideas in your 3rd House. Uranus may push you to be more vocal or share — perhaps in ways you had not considered before.
Use this Full Moon to work on your dialogue. Use your voice as a tool for change and growth. Speak up and talk about what is happening below the surface. Establish strong relationships with those you trust and take a leap of faith on the things you believe in. Discern anxiety vs intuition and find peace in knowing you are still working toward what you want — even if it feels unclear. Perfection is unfolding. Right now, you have to address today to get to tomorrow.
Scorpio New Moon Miniscopes
Scorpio New
Moon Miniscopes
Reclaiming Power.
The New Moon falls at 9º Scorpio, 8:47 AM ET on November 1st.
The Moon turns dark during this phase, but it is still felt in its influence and power. New Moons can signal a time of renewal, rebirth, and a fresh start, but when in Scorpio, the start comes from the decay of what has fallen before it. There is a component of release, loss, or letting go. A reminder that death is a door – not an ending, but a beginning.
We walk through the valley of the shadows and feel pulled by the Moon and Sun in their embrace. Together, they show us the way with little light – a call to trust our inner knowing. We descend the depths of our own humanity to uncover the pieces of ourselves that have long been hidden. Secrets come out and information rises to the surface.
The barriers that once felt impenetrable are cracked and broken like sheets of ice, exposing the rushing rivers that lie beneath. New Moons in Scorpio can feel empowering. They can act as a conduit or an ignition. The fire is relit and it lights the way in the darkness.
This Scorpio lunation comes with an incredible trine to Saturn. This gives a sense of stability and focus to this New Moon. Mars leads the lunation. Mars is temporarily finishing its time in Cancer, carrying passion with it. It welcomes a chance for us to bring our needs, excitement, expression, and energy together. There is an element of calling back power in this energy as we prepare for the upcoming retrograde, especially as Mars creates a trine to Neptune and opposes Pluto. Part of calling on this power requires us to also call on our fears – to name them, hold them, and no longer allow them to control us.
Mercury will oppose Uranus. Uranus seeks to free us from the stronghold of the Fixed power of Taurus, the sign in which it resides. We are asked to take a leap of faith into the unknown and to navigate through the murky waters of Scorpio to find the truth that remains to be seen. Uranus will surprise us, bringing awareness to what we didn’t know, and shaking things up in our material world.
We may be reaching for any sort of stability, but we are not on solid ground. The Sun and Moon require a descent. We have to dig our roots down deeper before we can reach equilibrium. Cycles are meant to be broken and bad habits are meant to come to a close at this New Moon. To truly give yourself a fresh start, you have to first be willing to unchain yourself from the confines of your comforts.
Venus finds itself reaching out to Jupiter. Here we find words for what we’ve been feeling and use dialogue as a means of reconnecting. Venus/Jupiter transits can help us with workarounds, solve abstract problems, and give us the perseverance to see things through to the end. There are creative solutions that need to be explored. Maybe we aren’t fully aware of it yet, but it will come when we least expect it.
A balance of life and death is restored. What we leave behind will decay into the earth and nourish it once again. It will give love to our roots, and once Spring calls to us, we will see that our petals will bloom brighter than ever.
If you have any personal planets in your chart at 4º to 14, you will feel the effects of this New Moon the most. Especially those with strong Fixed placements. So, let’s break this down by sign! Always read Sun, Moon, and Rising.
ARIES TO CANCER
Aries & Aries Rising
It is time to rely on those you trust intimately. This New Moon is very healing for you and can bring you close to a partner or friend. Now is the time to share your resources, your fears, your desires, and your motivations. Your 8th House is being activated, so nothing is off-limits.
The New Moon in your 8th House, opening doors for resources that have been untapped or previously hidden. This could be emotional or material. Some of you may find out about an unexpected gain, whether through you or a partner, perhaps an inheritance, or some sort of windfall — especially with Uranus being so prevalent. Alternatively, you may find that you are working toward paying off debts and feeling more secure — that you don’t owe anything to anyone. This could also apply to how you feel about emotional debts, almost washing your hands of old situations or people that no longer serve you. This New Moon may also bring about a transformation. One that has been a long time coming. In some ways, it will feel like a re-emergence — a butterfly coming out of its cocoon after a long period of reflection, healing, and dealing with shadows that have sat beneath the surface. Becoming more intimate and preserving your inner peace will be of the utmost importance.
Mars, the leader of this New Moon, will bring a lot of energy to this lunation as it harmonizes with Neptune and opposes Pluto. Its influence allows for motivation and action. Mars will help us persevere and turn concepts into actionable steps. The Mars/Pluto opposition may make us a bit more intense or feel chaotic in general. However, it can be extremely inspiring and awake deep desires within us, pushing us out of stagnation. You could end up rerouting yourself or your plans in a way that leaves you feeling more refreshed in the end. Neptune does trine Mars, helping to bring dreams to life if we are willing to not control so much.
Use this New Moon to reflect on your growth and how you have transformed in the last year. Seek new resources. Get intimate with a partner or close relationship — even yourself. Focus on the power you hold personally, finding new ways of sharing who you are. Explore your depths, take hold of your fears, and no longer be held back by cyclic patterns that keep you trapped. This is about seeing new pathways that had once been hidden from view. You hold the keys.

With the Moon in Scorpio, it seems that sharing a part of your life with others can lead to greater intimacy. Find even just a few people you trust and open up. Receptivity is huge now.
Mars will make things move quickly around this New Moon. It trines Neptune and opposes Pluto. There can be a desire to add more value, adventure, and/or passion to the relationships you hold closely. Mars is the ruler of this New Moon, and you will feel its impact quite strongly. Of course, the fire that Mars can spark may also become out of control if we aren’t careful, especially as Pluto opposes it. This adds false urgency, power struggles, and deep energy to the lunation. You could find that action is hard to take now. Try to slow down. Be intentional and not get swept away by the buzzing feeling. It can inspire you but don’t misstep in the process of trying to actually make a progressive forward leap.
Use this New Moon to focus on your boundaries. Understand the roles that you play in others’ lives and what they play in yours. See where you can receive and know what you have to give. Form new relationships and work through old ones that don’t support you. Seek out ways to create a better relationship with yourself above all else. Nothing will ever be as solid as the love you can give to yourself.
Gemini & Gemini Rising
Knowing your limits can be important. This month you are being tasked with closing doors, learning to be better to your body, and focusing on the things in your immediate present. You will be taught the value of your needs and the difference between service/sacrifice. We can’t save everyone, or really anyone, other than ourselves.
This New Moon falls in your 6th House. Here, you are told to prioritize your well-being more. Your health, work, daily life, and routines all fall in this area of your chart. You may have seen major changes in this more mundane setting, yet you may not have realized how impactful the small shifts have been. This New Moon opens a door of opportunity for you (or even several), where you can take more risks with work, find better solutions for your health, and retake control of your life. Consider this a chance to organize the chaos. You are settling into new routines, so be mindful of what you begin. You can kick old habits and start new exercise regimens. The call is to bring your physical self to the forefront. Alternatively, some of you may see the New Moon manifest through your work environment with co-workers, your job tasks, or even the job itself. If your job is pushed out, then know that something similar is coming along. If not, then perhaps there are ways to update your work/life balance.
Mars will be a conduit at this lunation. It trines Neptune and opposes Pluto. It energizes anything that may come up resource-wise — almost like a swift bit of motivation to get things going. There is a sense that valuing your time, energy, and space should take precendence. Don’t let anyone take advantage of you. Pluto will oppose Mars, creating some intensity and depth now. You may feel a bit overwhelmed, overworked, or just a bit directionless. Pluto is an quiet force. Be careful of over-scheduling yourself and know your limits. Alternatively, Pluto could be a driving force of inspiration like Mars, but may make you act out of character or too soon without giving anything much thought. Take time to think before acting now. Not everything is as urgent as it seems.
Use this New Moon to bring everything together. See how the small things in your life impact everything else. Pay attention to your body and work on making amends for how you may have abused it in the past. Work on getting healthier — physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually. Look for opportunities for growth in your work, daily life, and routines. Be flexible. See that perfection is not the goal — the process teaches us more than the outcome. Work on taking care of yourself.

It is time to restore your sense of optimism! This New Moon comes in to remind you that life can be fun and playful! In the last year, you have learned the value of personal joy and collective happiness. Now, as this lunation ushers in a new pathway, you can walk forward in a more focused manner.
The New Moon will highlight the area of your chart that rules play, joy, happiness, pleasure, love, and creation — the 5th House. This is about leading with your heart, listening to that inner child, and making time for more fun in your life. This is very welcome. This lunation reminds us that life is something to experience. You can manifest your heart’s desires into reality, simply by taking more risks on yourself. What makes you happy? What do you love? This is a time to explore new ways to play and seek out pleasure. Let loose. Because this is a place of creation, some of you may be creating something entirely new: a project, art, music, relationship, or even the conception of a child. Alternatively, consider this lunation a chance for you to sit in the spotlight a bit. It is okay to be recognized for your efforts and to celebrate your successes.
Mars will add passion and fire to this lunation. It trines Neptune and opposes Pluto. It will bring a level of attraction and magnetism to you. Your creativity is heightened, so share your gifts with others. Don’t shy away from a chance to express yourself. Pluto will oppose Mars, so you could have a healing and needed conversation with someone close to you! Alternatively, you could be swept up in others’ narratives of you that lead you to take action or act differently. Whatever it is, there is something new brewing. So take a second to slow down and reflect before leaping. The leap can be good and yield some greater opportunities or results, but jumping before you are ready can leave you feeling unsafe or disoriented. Pluto is intense, so there is no shortage of excitement or buzzing now.
Use this New Moon to find new ways to have fun. Follow your heart more and listen to your inner child. Seek new ways to engage in pleasure and creativity. Let loose. If you are looking to conceive (a child, a project or anything), let this New Moon be the thing that pushes you to start or get more focused on it. Anything that pulls at your heart will be favored. So really get in touch with what you desire most.
LEO TO SCORPIO
Leo & Leo Rising
This New Moon is going to have you more withdrawn than usual. You are turning your focus away from the outside world — and becoming a little more introverted (yes, even you need time to recharge). You are rediscovering your inner sanctum and establishing a new home base.
The 4th House rules family, home, roots, and your emotional foundations. Here, the New Moon will turn your attention to these areas. Perhaps you are looking to do some work around the house — renovations or redecorating. Maybe you are just on a house hunt overall, looking for new places to call home. Some of you may be finding more quiet time or family time, while seeking solitude after a busy few months. Whatever it is, you are bringing it all back to your center. Home is where the heart is. Family could take a central focus as there may be changing dynamics in this area of your life. Over the last year or so, you have been redefining what family truly is, or means to you. You have been putting down stronger roots and really focusing on your emotional well-being. This New Moon tells you all of that work has a purpose. You can rejoice in the power you have called back and honor the peace you have created. This may be one of the best times of the year for you to connect with your ancestors, inner foundations, and emotional desires as well. If you want to buy, sell, or rent — this lunation can be quite helpful!
Mars will energize this lunation. It trines Neptune and opposes Pluto. You are valuing your well being more and willing to go the lengths to ensure it is protected. Your health and sense of rest are something you are not willing to compromise. You may be embarking on a bigger journey that course corrects you or puts you on a different path than you have imagined. This is especially true as Pluto opposes Mars. You may be feeling a bit overwhelmed or like you need a break, perhaps you may also feel like you are biting off more than you can chew. Almost as if things are moving so fast, and you can’t slow them down. However, this energy can support big leaps of faith and the finality of a situation that feels like it has been ongoing. You may not have all the answers, but in some ways, you don’t need to. Some of you could be feeling pulled between priorities with work and home. If that is the case, know that this is temporary and clarity will come in the days after this New Moon.
Use this New Moon to settle in and come back to the center. Focus on your roots and your family. Find security in your emotional foundations and create a sanctuary for yourself. Find peace in the quiet. Work on things around the house and spruce up your space. If you want to move, this New Moon could give you the boost you need to find the right place! It is all coming together now.
Virgo & Virgo Rising
You spend a lot of time taking care of others, but never enough time taking care of yourself. This New Moon will fall in your 3rd House, asking you to use your voice and speak up. This is about walking away from overthinking. You deserve to say what is on your mind as much as anyone else.
The New Moon in your 3rd House allows you to learn, adapt, process, and integrate. This is about how you communicate not only what you are saying — but also what you are hearing. Part of shifting your perspective comes through dialogue and the conversations that you have with others. Your voice is your power. Now, it is time to learn how to use it. Through the 3rd House, we learn to express ourselves and say what is on our minds. Sharing is an integral part of your personal exploration — and how you choose to share is important. There can be a feeling of people inundating you with messages around the New Moon. Perhaps you may hear news that you were not expecting. You can start a new journey for yourself by applying the skills you have in new ways. Your local community will figure strongly, especially those close to you. They are here to uplift you and support you, but they won’t know what you need unless you tell them. Asking for help isn’t weak – especially if it is meant to help you grow.
Mars will add passion to this lunation. It rules this New Moon. Here it gives you a strong decisive mindset and a gift for speaking more directly and honestly. You are being heard right now and people are listening to every word you say. You may be more motivated to share than normal, too. With Mars and Pluto opposite, you could also be afraid of how you are being preceived by those in your inner circle. This could lead to some conflict or overreactions. Additionally, it may make you jump the gun and decide on something without having all the information in front of you. Of course, this may not be the case entirely, but knowing that the possibility is there means slowing down and exercising your innate thoughtfulness. One last way this could manifest is just through being incredibly busy or people reaching out to you left and right. This may have you feeling excited but maybe overwhelmed with so much happening around you — even if it isn’t impacting you directly. You don’t have to always have the answers nor are people always looking for them either. Just focus on what is right in front of you to find calm in the chaos.
Use this New Moon to speak your magic into the world. Communication is key, and your words hold more power than they have in a long time. Don’t be afraid to tell others what you are thinking, but also be open to what they have to say. Create important dialogue and have those tough conversations. Be flexible and adapt to the ever-changing tides in life. You are being asked to integrate your experiences and open yourself up to new possibilities.
Libra & Libra Rising
Libra now is the time to flex your skills and stand your ground. This New Moon will have your mind on resources, self-worth, and value. You can help to get yourself in a good position. But be your own advocate.
This New Moon is in your 2nd House, so your focus can be turned toward resources. Are you valued for your work? What is your compensation like, even outside of income? Some of you may be looking for a raise, promotion, or change to your financial picture. Others of you may thinking about how to use the resources you have differently (tangible or otherwise). Use this New Moon to push that forward for you. The Moon is in Scorpio, so it make ask that you dig deeper to find the right solution to whatever problem may arise! Remain grounded in your approach, but charge ahead knowing that you can grow an abundant garden from all that you decide to plant. There is a major theme around personal value that creeps up. You need to see yourself differently — own every facet of your talents and your experience. You are valuable. You are worthy. Not because someone says you are or because of what you have, but just simply because you exist.
Mars will supercharge this New Moon. It is the ruler of the lunation. Here it gives you a stronger opportunity for earning potential and living more abundantly overall. Mars is gifting you a dynamic edge while showcasing your worth. Visibility is strong for you as Mars tours your 10th House. Know that your efforts are not going unnoticed now. This energy also supports fighting for what you believe in and supporting your morals, ethics, and values. Pluto will oppose Mars, adding an intense and deep nature to the lunation. We could see non-issues being blown out of proportion or feel temporarily overwhelmed by something. However, learning to relinquish what you don’t have control over will help. This energy asks that you maintain a big-picture perspective and not get caught up in the moment. You may see that a family member is creating more tension in your life than you gave attention to before. It seems that a potential disappointment of family could hold more weight, but moving through this disappointment will bring more joy and success in your life.
Use this New Moon to focus on the ground you stand on. What do you value? When was the last time you showed yourself respect? Seek out ways to show yourself that you can rely on yourself. Build a greater space for personal security and understand the value of owning every aspect of your humanity. Find new resources and open up doors for working through financial stress and abundance. There’s no scarcity in the world you have created for yourself now.
Scorpio & Scorpio Rising
Scorpio, there is a New Moon in your sign! This is important and points to the Full Moon we experienced in your sign earlier this year. Think back to what you started around then and how you are carrying a similar theme. Perhaps you are ready to start a new cycle for yourself or pieces are starting to come together!
This lunation falls in your 1st House, bringing you back to your place in this world. Who are you? What do you want? You have been dealing with eclipses in your sign the last few years and oppositions from Uranus, so you may have been shedding old skin in order to release what isn’t working for you. This New Moon will give you a chance to find what WILL work for you. You get to decide how you live your life and make strides in building a new you. Now is the time to be unapologetically yourself. Celebrate your individuality. Take pride in where you are right now. It is time to call back your power!
Mars rules this New Moon, bringing heat and energy to this lunation. It is in Cancer, working harmoniously with your sign. Mars will make you feel appreciated and empowered, and see the value self-expression. Definitely buy yourself a little something special, take a bit of a risk, and/or do something new or unexpected. Mars is giving you a ton of energy to support you through this time. Mars will oppose Pluto, and trine Neptune. This may make things feel more intense or slightly chaotic. However, you are no stranger to this energy given that Pluto is the modern ruler of your sign. Pluto is quiet and acts as a transformer, so you may find that people around you are acting out of character or more impulsively. Try not to get swept up in all of it. This is just a temporary aspect. Positively, it could bring increidbly important people into (or back into) your life.
Use this New Moon to focus on yourself. Work on discovering new pieces of your identity and releasing parts of you that no longer serve you. Be fueled by your desires and passions, and run with your ideas. Motivation is key. You can make anything you want come to fruition, especially as the doors swing open just for you. Stand in your power. Embrace the spotlight. Own every facet of your being. This is a fresh start!
SAGITTARIUS TO PISCES
Sagittarius & Sagittarius Rising
You are being pulled into a need for rest and relaxation. You have been going nonstop for quite some time, and now you’re being asked to slow things down. The Sun and Moon align in your 12th House. There are important endings afoot now.
This New Moon is perfectly positioned in your 12th House, so right now is a time to find a balance in work, pleasure, play, and rest. Work quietly behind the scenes and slow down. You are turning inward and focused on preserving your energy. You know you will be expending a lot of it soon. The 12th House can bring insights that we were not privy to before. So, you may discover information that was hidden from view. Now is a time to listen to your intuition and focus on how to best navigate quietly. If you need a respite, take it! Additionally, this area of your chart is about following your intuition and trusting the unseen. Listen to your inner magic. Some doors may close for you, but new ones will soon open.
Mars is adding fire and energy to this New Moon. It is the ruler of the lunation. Mars asks to protect your personal peace and focus on your healing. There is a call to respite and breaking cycles. Take time to carve out some solitude and try not to overload your schedule. Value your peace. Mars will oppose Pluto, making some waves. You could feel pulled between what you have and what you share. Perhaps you are finding things to be a bit overwhelming or your body is reacting to the stress you are under. Pluto has been churning how you approach your resources, worth, and value. Consider this another opportunity to engage in that change or transformation. Allow whatever comes up to be a motivator, not an inhibitor. If you have been meaning to get some professional care, definitely reach out and make the appointment to jumpstart a better wellness regimen.
Use this New Moon to withdraw a bit where you can. Find more peace in everyday life — including work/life balance. Take time to rest and recharge. Tie up loose ends and close doors that need to be shut. Re-engage with yourself, replenish your energy, and enjoy downtime (by creating it). Listen to your intuition more and record your dreams. This is an opportunity for you to truly let go and open yourself up to something greater.
Capricorn & Capricorn Rising
I know you don’t always like to ask for help, but this New Moon will have people showing up for you left and right! The amount of support you have is uncanny. You are making new friendships and maybe saying goodbye to old ones that aren’t as solid as they used to be.
With this lunation hanging out in your 11th House, you will be looking at your connections and friends as a way to help you move ahead. You may even just want to catch up with people, feeling a little more social than normal. The Moon will be subconsciously drawing you out more. You are realizing that community is becoming increasingly important to you, and you may be trying to find where you want to align yourself. Budding friendships become lasting ones, and old friends are showing up left and right. Bask in this! People are showing you love, and you deserve that. Support seems like magic. You are recognizing that you can’t do things alone. You need others. Co-create. Collaborate. Connect!
Mars is boosting the energy levels at this New Moon. It is the ruler. Mars is bringing the passion and the drive. It will have the right people around you and help you ease your fears of sharing. There is value in your close relationships. Take a risk and show your true colors to those closest to you. Mars and Pluto will oppose. This adds some intensity and transformations now. You could feel that your confidence is shaky or that you are not expressing how you feel correctly. Pluto is finishing its time in your sign, helping you break free from limitations and choose to take that plunge, that leap. You have to put yourself out there, even if it seems hard so that people can see the real you…all of you. You can’t hide anymore. Positively, this can be a very inspiring creative time for you! So lean into this aspect.
Use this New Moon to call on your community. Ask for support where necessary and seek out new methods of networking. Focus on your friendships and nurture the ones that prove to strengthen you. Look at your goals, your future, and your hopes. What do you want out of the next five years? Three years? Who can help you get there? How can you make this happen? These are questions to reflect on — just remember to not let your dreams die. Keep the faith alive.
Aquarius & Aquarius Rising
You have been working hard lately. This New Moon in your 10th House is asking you to reframe your thoughts around your direction in life, your career, and what you want in the end from all of it. Your mind will be on work and your goals in the coming year. This is the start of something new!
This New Moon will bring you to new heights! It falls in your 10th House, so you have the chance to plant seeds in your career or make important moves in your life. You are becoming more aware of your direction and what you want! With the Moon in Scorpio, you are asked to recognize what is most important to you. You will have to dig a little deeper to discover what you truly want. Nothing you are doing is in vain. The right people are taking notice. If you do change jobs or careers, you may find that the work you want to do will be something completely different or distinct. Perhaps that is the change you want, too! Alternatively, some of you may make discoveries about your passions that drive you into a new field or up the ladder into a new role/position. Whatever it is, a career or work-related matter seems to be at the forefront of your mind.
Mars is empowering you at this lunation. It is the ruler of the lunation. Mars can bring in work opportunities or even just schedule changes. It will give you magnetism and help you feel confident in how you approach those in your daily life. There is value in your reputation that you need to be more aware of. With Mars opposite Pluto, you may feel pulled in two directions. There may be intense situations that pop up, and in turn, this could electrify things. Perhaps shifting your relationship with responsibilty or how you care for your well-being. You may feel to dramatically take control of your health. This is a call to take ownership. This opposition helps you bring an end to something that may have been holding you back — or it could allow you to listen to your intuition more.
Use this New Moon to focus on your career and your life direction. Don’t be afraid to put yourself out there. Be noticed and seek opportunities that make you more visible. Call the shots and show your leadership qualities. Strive for new goals and scale even higher mountains. Enjoy the fruits of your labour and relish in your successes. See the power within you and let that be what pushes you into the next phase of your life. You are moving toward such great heights.
Pisces & Pisces Rising
You are reaching new heights! You have recently taken a leap of faith, and you know that there is no way you can go back now! Doors of opportunity open and possibility awaits — a portal into something new. It is time to grow, grow, grow! You are being asked to expand past your current limitations. Whatever your goal is, now is the time to make sure you are fully aligned with it.
With this New Moon in your 9th House, you are actively growing and trying new things! You are taking the experiences you have had and applying them future-forward. Now is a time to be bold and optimistic about the journey that lies ahead. The Moon will make sure that you are grounded in your approach while remaining open to the beautiful changes that life can bring! Flexible structures. Here, you will see that your world is shifting. The 9th House is about limitless potential. You realize the world truly is your oyster in this realm, and you can make what you want out of it. You will likely see your goals more clearly than you have in a long time and thus change your priorities in achieving them. Nothing is too far out of reach. All it takes is a little faith.
Mars is in a fellow Water sign, energizing you at this New Moon. It is the ruler of the lunation. Mars reminds you of the excitement of taking a chance on yourself. It tells you that you are worthy of believing in. Creative experiences will be wonderful. This will be a time when you will feel passion reignite. However, Mars will oppose Pluto. So, it seems that there is some intensity that shakes you up a bit. There may be a need to view your future a bit differently now. Perhaps the ways in which you normally wouldn’t ask for what you need has to change. In some ways you may feel you lack support, but maybe you have not asked for it. This can add more tension within you as you find the right words. Please know, the future that is unfolding before you is one that will be more inspiring — even if you can’t see it. Pluto is evolutionary, so it is hard to know how it will manifest in your life completely. One of the best ways Pluto can show up is through inspiring community in your 11th House. Pluto may push you to outside your comfort zone — perhaps in ways you had not considered before. Don’t say no to outcomes you have yet to realize.
Use this New Moon to explore new places — physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually. Challenge your perspective, open your mind, and reach beyond current limitations. Seek help to achieve your goals and put yourself out there to gain notoriety. There is so much happening around you. If you feel confused, take a step back and pull yourself out of the details. See the big picture and soon, you will know which path to take.
Aries Full Moon Miniscopes
Aries Full
Moon Miniscopes
Forming Fire.
The Full Moon falls at 24º Aries, 7:26 AM ET on October 17th. And so eclipse season comes to a close.
New and Full Moons carry themes from one to the other within every astrological season and beyond. They play on what the other is saying and work in tandem to create an overarching story. This Full Moon in Aries continues the conversation from the eclipses in Aries and Libra. The viewpoint is more direct and less passive. We have finished eclipse season and now we are in a place of rediscovering direction. What was internalized now comes out into the open. There is less reflection – and more action.
This is perfectly timed, as we are looking to the expanded story of Libra Season. We have established our bonds... But who are we within those unions? The Aries energy of this Full Moon requires us to know where we as individuals end, and another begins. We must not only see how we fit together but what drives us individually. A relationship requires two individuals to come together to work toward a common goal. Thus, we maintain autonomy in the process, but we don’t stop supporting each other. We are now asked to see what lights our fires and brings passion into our lives.
Mars is the leader of this Full Moon, and it finds itself in an important position. Mars is forming a square to Full Moon, creating some tension between these cosmic powerhouses. There is a sense that we need to align our values and our morals with our intended actions. Simultaneously, Mars activating the Sun and Moon will speak to a habit that needs to end. Perhaps we are in a space where we desire closure or to move on from what was as we navigate uncharted territory. Sometimes, letting go can be freeing and motivating. Mars is slower than normal now, as it prepares to retrograde in December. Whatever we see occur now will play out in a bigger way over the next many months. Mars loves seeing things completed and paving new pathways. The Mars Rx later this year will do just that for us.
Venus and Jupiter have some power over this Full Moon. Venus is reaching out lovingly to Neptune and Pluto in a trine and sextile. This harmony is something that we can welcome. We may feel a depth that can’t be explained, but there is beauty in it. Almost as if there is an acceptance of things as they are and making them the best they can be. Jupiter will support the Full Moon through a sextile and bring the expansive energy of the planet to new insights and inspiration. Its influence bridges the gaps and helps us recognize what is truly important in the big picture. Anything that may arise is for a greater outcome in the end. In some ways, this is a hero’s journey and the understanding of our growth on that journey.
Direction is the word I would put on this Full Moon. With the Moon’s transit through Aries, we are asked to find our next steps, our next direction. If we are feeling stuck, uneasy, or uncertain, making moves will create the change of pace that we may seek. Some things are worth fighting for, and Aries never backs down from a challenge.
If you have any personal planets in your chart at 20º to 29º, you will feel the effects of this Full Moon the most. Especially those with strong Cardinal placements. So, let’s break this down by sign! Always read Sun, Moon, and Rising.
NOTE: Due to my travels, these miniscopes are written by Aubrey Houdeshell. I have still written the introduction above, but the sign-by-sign breakdown is by Aubrey. Please enjoy this generous offer and to learn more about Aubrey, head to the bottom of the page!
ARIES TO CANCER
Aries & Aries Rising
For the past year and a half, the New and Full Moons in Aries have been accompanied by an eclipse, asking you relentlessly for growth, evolution, and change. So perhaps this lunation comes as a bit of a relief, as it is the first Full Moon in Aries without an eclipse attached. The Full Moon comes through to light up your first house, making now your time to shine. The North Node has been transiting this area of your chart for over a year now, too, placing a strong, positive influence on your identity, beliefs, and appearance. Perhaps now you feel ready to embody this new version of yourself, and to share it a bit louder and more proudly than before. Perhaps there are even more layers of yourself that you are ready to shed in order to allow a more authentic version of yourself to shine through. This is the moment to embrace all that you are, and to feel good about it!
The leader of this moon is Mars, your ruling planet, who is hanging out in your fourth house in Cancer. Perhaps your family and/or home life feels especially busy or important now. There may be an opportunity for you to truly nurture your most private, intimate areas, as Mars asks you to take action here. Mars also happens to be opposite Pluto in your tenth house, at 29 degrees Capricorn. This opposition brings focus to both the most private area in your chart, and the most visible, placing an emphasis on work/life balance. It’s possible they have felt at odds with one another lately, especially with Pluto asking you to close out a long-standing era in some way.
Luckily though, Venus in Scorpio - also at 29 degrees - comes through to offer support to both Mars and Pluto from your eighth house. Remember that the eighth house is the house of shared resources: perhaps there is someone around who can help you take a few things off of your plate, or at least offer up some kind of support at this time. Don’t be afraid to reach out to your dear ones! They will be happy to show up for you right now.
Taurus & Taurus Rising
This Full Moon is illuminating your twelfth house Taurus, a place that normally exists behind a veil of obscurity, completely in the dark. You may feel a bit withdrawn or low energy underneath the Full Moon, which are typical feelings whenever the Moon is transiting our 12th houses. Thanks to the light of the moon, there may be things rising to the surface of your conscious awareness that feel uncomfortable, perhaps pointing to something you thought you’d moved on from, but is becoming clear you haven’t. As the parts of yourself that normally exist in the shadows are dragged out into the light of the moon, give yourself some solitude and quiet time to process whatever is coming up. Remember that Full Moons are release points, so give yourself permission to let go a little more now.
Mars, the leader of this Full Moon, is hanging out in your third house, opposite Pluto in Capricorn in your ninth house, at 29 degrees Capricorn. This opposition is asking you for a change in perspective. What action can you take now to further foster releasing the past? How does letting go make room for greater expansion and growth? What new opportunities are ready to bloom now that they have room to? One of the lessons of the twelfth house is that we have to let things go in order to make room for new things to expand. Change is no easy task for Taurus placements, it’s true, but I want to challenge you to view endings as opportunities for better things to come in, rather than something bad.
Venus, who is at the final degree of Scorpio in your seventh house of partnerships, is harmonizing with both Mars and Pluto, bringing some tenderness and ease to fully embrace this new perspective. You might also benefit from sharing what you’re going through with a loved one at this time. Let them be there for you during this time of transition.
Gemini & Gemini Rising
Community is the name of the game underneath this Full Moon, Gemini, as the Moon is illuminating your eleventh house. This area has been a huge focus since last July, when the North Node in Aries first began transiting here. As the moon lights up this area of your chart, this is a moment to reflect on how your community has changed over the past fifteen months. Who is still around? Who have you welcomed in? Which communities are you immersed in?
Because the eleventh house also rules over the future and our hopes and dreams, this is a great opportunity to dream bigger about your life. Where would you like to be in the next five years? Connecting with those around you could also be helpful to bounce ideas around and flesh out what you really want from life moving forward.
Mars leads this lunation from your second house of personal resources, opposite Pluto in your eighth house of shared resources. Pluto in Capricorn and Venus in Scorpio sit at the final degree of their respective signs, offering up an important lesson around depth and reciprocity in your various relationships. Who is truly there for you? Who are you truly there for? Where and how and with whom are your resources tied up?
With Venus offering its support from your sixth house, this is an important moment to reflect on your real, everyday life, and who you spend your time with. The role of reciprocity and balance in relationships during this lunation cannot be overstated. This is a moment to take stock of how you show up, as well as who is showing up for you. Spend time with those who fill your cup for real.

Your career may be playing an important role at this time, Cancer, as the Full Moon in Aries moves through your tenth house, illuminating your reputation and calling your purpose to the forefront of your mind. These have been important themes for the past while now, as the transiting North Node in Aries has helped to expand and boost this area of your life. With the Full Moon shining its light on the most visible area of your chart, this is a moment to take stock of everything that has transpired in your career since last July, and if there’s anything left that you are ready to let go of in order to move into greater authenticity and authority.
Mars is leading this Full Moon from your first house, while opposing Pluto at the final degree of Capricorn in your seventh, highlighting the relationship axis. Indeed, relationships may be playing an especially important role right now - especially business partnerships. You may be in high demand, or you might just have a lot going on right now in general. With Pluto in its final moments of Capricorn, you are closing out a decade and a half-long chapter where all of your important, intimate relationships are concerned. Taking a moment to reflect on what has changed in this area since 2008 could offer up some much-needed perspective.
Meanwhile, Venus in Scorpio, also at the final degree, comes in to offer support and ease through this final moment of transformation. While Venus finds its joy in your fifth house of romance and creativity, perhaps you can approach your love life with new eyes. Venus in Scorpio is intimately familiar with the process of transformation that relationships can ignite, but don’t forget that healing and a greater potential for love, nurturing, and intimacy lie on the other side of transformation.
LEO TO SCORPIO
Leo & Leo Rising
The Full Moon in Aries is lighting up your ninth house, Leo, emphasizing the bigger trajectory of your life. This has been a big focus for you for over a year now, as the North Node in Aries has been transiting this space, asking you about what you believe in, and where your life is headed. As the moon illuminates this space, you may find yourself reflecting on those themes, seeking further answers or stimulation from a class or workshop or teacher. This is a moment to get back in touch with what your truth is, and to release old beliefs that no longer resonate. What do you place your faith in? Where in your life could you benefit from greater expansion?
Interestingly, Mars in Cancer is leading this Full Moon from your twelfth house of spirituality, connecting beautifully with the search for a greater truth in your ninth house. Opposite Mars is Pluto in its final moment of Capricorn in your sixth house of daily routines and rituals. This dynamic is asking what action you’re taking in your daily life that is supportive of the bigger goals of your life. Are you nurturing your dreams and moving toward your goals, or are you trapped in the daily grind? The Full Moon is asking you to shift your focus towards something higher, to believe in the possibilities and potential of your life.
Venus in Scorpio offers up its support of this journey from your fourth house, harmonizing with Mars, Pluto, and Neptune who is still hanging out in Pisces in your eleventh house of dreams, community, and the future. Spending a bit of time alone to really engage in reflection will be the most beneficial thing now. However, if the opportunity to connect with someone you’re especially close with comes up, you might benefit from sharing your visions with them.
Virgo & Virgo Rising
The Full Moon in Aries lights up your eighth house at this time, Virgo, shining light on a place that normally exists in shadow. The eighth house is a very interesting place, containing things like shared resources, but also death, sex, and transformation. Thanks to the transiting North Node in Aries, you’ve already been grappling with these themes since last July. The light of Full Moon offers up a moment of clarity, and the chance to truly shed some dead weight in order to make room for healing, growth, and rebirth. You may also find yourself reflecting on what and with whom your resources are tied up with, and whether or not you’d like to maintain that connection. Because Full Moons point to release, if there’s a connection you’ve been looking to sever, let this be your permission slip.
Mars, the leader of this Full Moon, is hanging out in Cancer in your eleventh house of community, further highlighting the theme of resources. Because we look at all of our relationships in this house, Mars is inviting you to take stock of who truly supports you, and vice versa. You may find yourself quite active within your community under this Full Moon, nurturing your important relationships. There may be an opportunity for networking at this time, which could bring in some new, supportive avenues.
Meanwhile, Pluto will be opposite Mars, now in its final moments in Capricorn from your fifth house of joy, creativity, and self-expression. This is an area of your life that has undergone significant change since 2008, and is now being highlighted one final time to make sure that you leave room for play, romance, and fun, alongside all of the demands of your relationships.
Venus in Scorpio, also in its final moments in Scorpio, comes through to support this opposition from your third house, while also harmonizing with Neptune in Pisces in your seventh house of committed partnerships. Relationships are truly the name of the game underneath this lunation. Take advantage of this auspicious moment and connect with the important people in your life. There are many gifts available to you right now!
Libra & Libra Rising
Partnerships of all kinds are center stage right now, Libra, with the Full Moon in Aries illuminating your seventh house. But what else is new, am I right? Thanks to the transiting North Node, which is also in Aries, your close relationships have been front and center for a long while now. This Full Moon is an opportunity for you to take stock of your important connections, to assess what you have learned or what has changed over the past fifteen months, and if there’s anything left that needs to shift now. You could benefit greatly from connecting with those close to you, whether a lover, friend, or important business partnership.
Mars in Cancer leads this lunation from your tenth house of career, which may be an especially busy area of life right now. Meanwhile, Pluto, now direct at 29 degrees Capricorn, is opposite Mars down in your fourth house. This opposition is highlighting both the most visible, and the most private areas in your chart, placing an emphasis on work/life balance, and asking you to assess if you have that right now. Remember that Mars in Cancer is asking us to take action around nurturing ourselves. What does that mean to you right now?
Venus, your ruling planet, comes through in its final moments in Scorpio to bring some softness to this opposition from your second house of resources while harmonizing with Neptune in Pisces in your sixth house of health, routines, and your job. Both planets are offering good news for all things career and money-related, but don’t forget those aren’t the only resources available to you. Perhaps this is a moment to lean on others and allow someone to show up for you for once, instead of you always showing up for others. There is plenty of support to be had, you simply have to ask for it.
Scorpio & Scorpio Rising
The ins and outs of your daily life are likely on your mind during this time, Scorpio, as the Full Moon shines its light on your sixth house of daily rituals, routines, and your job. This area of your life has been a huge focus for you since last July, with the transiting North Node and the ensuing eclipses bringing about lots of change - in a good way! With the Full Moon shining its light upon this area, too, you may find yourself assessing how you’re living your daily life. Does it feel supportive of your health? How are you taking care of your body? Does your everyday life feel fulfilling at this time? Because Full Moons are release points, there may be something about the way you’re living your life that needs to change in the day-to-day. That’s okay - this is a moment to make room for what really matters to you, and what feels authentic.
Mars, your ruling planet, leads this lunation, while hanging out in Cancer in your ninth house of spirituality, travel, and the bigger picture. There may be an opportunity to take a trip of some kind, or perhaps a class or workshop, something to expand your horizons in some way. Take advantage of whatever that is, and use it as a way to get back in touch with what you believe in.
Pluto in Capricorn - at 29 degrees no less - opposes Mars in your third house. The ask here is for a perspective shift. Mars wants you to take action in alignment with your bigger goals and desires, whatever that means, and to align your day-to-day grind with the bigger trajectory of your life. Pluto is emphasizing some kind of transformation in the smaller picture, the details that need to come together to match up with the big picture, as well. How do the two need to come together so the details support the bigger picture and vice versa?
Venus, transiting the final degree of your sign, offers up its support from your first house, while receiving some help from Neptune in Pisces in your fifth house of joy, creativity, and self-expression. Don’t forget to sprinkle in some fun, beauty, and pleasure when considering the larger scope of your life.
SAGITTARIUS TO PISCES
Sagittarius & Sagittarius Rising
Fun, joy, play, creativity, and romance are being highlighted for you underneath this Full Moon, Sagittarius - lucky you!
For the past fifteen months, the transiting North Node in Aries has been asking you to learn how to be in the present moment, express yourself more creatively, and cultivate greater joy. As the light of the Full Moon fills up this same space, you may find yourself assessing whether or not you’ve done that. Perhaps there is an opportunity to let go of something in your life that blocks you from accessing the things that make you feel good or impedes you from being able to feel grounded and present. Embracing a little bit of spontaneity or impulsiveness might be helpful right now.
Interestingly, the leader of this Moon is Mars in Cancer, who is currently hanging out in your shadowy eighth house, asking for a bit of transformation on your end around how to choose to take action and assert yourself. You might have to get honest with yourself on how what you choose to do or not do is what’s blocking real potential for pleasure, fun, and joy. Mars also happens to be opposite Pluto in its final moments of Capricorn in your second house, amping up the theme of transformation in general, but also asking what you truly value now, after undergoing significant change in this area since 2008.
Venus, also at the 29th degree, but in Scorpio, harmonizes with both Mars and Pluto from your twelfth house, while reaching out to Neptune in Pisces from your fourth house. Because these planets are hanging out in two of the most private houses in the chart, you may need to spend a bit of time by yourself to really flesh out what love, romance, creativity, and pleasure mean to you at this point in your life. And/or spending time with someone very, very close to you whom you can reveal the most intimate parts of yourself. Remember that romance and intimacy can include fun! Indeed, for you, they must.
Capricorn & Capricorn Rising
The Full Moon in Aries is illuminating your fourth house, Capricorn. As the lowest place in the birth chart, this is an incredibly private place, which may leave you feeling a bit withdrawn, introspective, and tending to things at home.
This isn’t really something new, as the transiting North Node in Aries has been placing a huge emphasis on the more private, intimate areas of your life for over a year now. This has asked you to pull away from visibility and the career in some way, in order to pay more attention to the people and things that truly matter. As the Full Moon illuminates this space, you may find yourself wanting to spend time with your most intimate circle, or to tend to your home in some way. Because Full Moons are times of release, this could be a great time to clean out your closets, or rearrange furniture to let in some new and different energy for the darker half of the year. Do something that honors what you truly need right now.
Meanwhile, Mars is leading this moon, still in Cancer, in your seventh house of partnerships. Because Mars brings action and general busyness, your close relationships might be playing an especially prominent role right now. Mars also happens to be opposite Pluto, which is in its final moments in your sign, at the very edge of your first house, further highlighting the relationship axis. Do your relationships feel balanced? Equal? Fair? Perhaps there’s a need to reinforce some boundaries at this time. Take a moment to assess whether or not you’re feeling nourished by your connections, and/or if there’s an important relationship that could benefit from your attention right now.
Luckily, Venus, who is also in its final moments in Scorpio, is playing a supportive role to both Pluto and Mars from your eleventh house of community, while also receiving a boost from Neptune in Pisces in your third house of your local environment. Relationships are the main focus under this Full Moon, take the time to reach out, socialize, and be among those who really fill your cup.
Aquarius & Aquarius Rising
As the Full Moon in Aries moves through your third house, you may find yourself (and your mind) feeling extra busy at this time, Aquarius. The moon finds its joy in the third house, as it inspires us to speak up and share our thoughts and feelings with others. Thanks to the transiting North Node in Aries, that’s been a big focus for you since July of last year. As the moon shines its light here, perhaps there is something you feel inspired to speak up about. If something has been weighing on your heart and/or mind, allow the energy of the Aries Full Moon to embolden you to give a voice to whatever that is. There may simultaneously be a belief or story that you’ve held about yourself that you are ready to let go of now. Because the third house supports writing, you might benefit from journaling about whatever is coming up right now.
Alternatively, the third house relates to our local environment, our siblings, and all of the short trips we take in our day-to-day life, like commuting to a job or running errands. You might find your plate full with plenty of tasks to attend to!
Mars, the planet of action, is the leader of this Full Moon and is hanging out in Cancer in your sixth house, which happens to be the house of its joy. Your daily life might feel busy as hell at this time, with Mars bringing plenty of action to your job and daily routines. Meanwhile, Pluto opposes Mars while in its final moments in Capricorn from your twelfth house. As you prepare to close out a decade and a half-long era of Pluto reshaping your relationship to solitude, endings, and spirituality, there is a need for balance between the busyness of the mundane, and the necessity of alone time for a healthy spiritual life.
Meanwhile, Venus in Scorpio, also at 29 degrees, makes harmonious aspects to both Mars and Pluto from your tenth house, offering up a boost to your reputation, and maybe even your money and career. Venus also harmonizes with Neptune in your second house of resources, bringing further ease to what’s available to you at this time.
Pisces & Pisces Rising
Your resources are playing an important role right now Pisces, as this lunation stirs up your second house. For the past fifteen months, the North Node has been transiting this house, emphasizing what you have, what you value, and how you access those things. With the Full Moon shining its light here, this may be a moment where a greater understanding of your resources and values comes forward. Because Full Moons are culmination points, perhaps this is a full circle moment for you, where you can celebrate all that you’ve been working towards as far as money, self-esteem, and possessions are concerned.
The leader of this Full Moon is Mars, currently transiting Cancer, in your fifth house of joy. Mars is also opposite Pluto at 29 degrees Capricorn, which is finishing up its stay in your eleventh house. There is a focus on both the present moment, and the future here, especially with Venus coming through in its final moments of Scorpio to offer support from your ninth house of spirituality and the big picture. Where are you now, where are you headed next, and how can the resources at your disposal support you in getting there? Mars is asking you to take action now to support what you want for yourself in the foreseeable future - think the next five years. What do you have now, thanks to the transiting North Node and the eclipses, that you didn’t have before, that opens up the opportunity to dream bigger and get what you desire?
Ultimately, you have undergone a journey with Pluto in your eleventh house of community, dreams, and the future since 2008 which has deeply transformed the people you surround yourself with, and the vision you have for yourself in the future. In this moment, Pluto is harmonizing with Neptune in your first, and Uranus in your third. Allow a new perspective to blossom that you can carry forward and bring to life.

Libra Solar Eclipse Miniscopes
Libra Solar
Eclipse Miniscopes
Harmonizing Fresh Starts.
The solar eclipse falls at 10º Libra, 2:49 PM ET on October 2nd. There comes a point where we have to reckon with how we connect with others and ourselves. What sort of relationships have we cultivated? What are our expectations? What are our needs? The Solar Eclipse in Libra is perfect for this. It gracefully walks in and takes a seat; it brings with it a need to look at how we conduct ourselves in our interactions. Do we make ourselves small? Do we concede in the face of conflict? Libra is the sign of everything fair and just, so part of this eclipse is asking for us to create more equity in our lives. We can balance expectation with desire, need with want, and you with me.
This lunation shows us that reflections are all around us. What we bring into our relationships is what we get, and vice versa. Thus, we are learning to see our actions differently, from a new vantage point – from the view of the other person standing right in front of us. What do they see? We could create a new sense of awareness and understanding just by the willingness to put ourselves in someone else’s shoes. Not only do the Sun and Moon align in this Cardinal Air sign, but they meet with Mercury. Here, we see our essence, our core, being brought face-to-face with the need for expression, dialogue, and communication. This dynamic brings up conversations that need to be had – and that are unable to be ignored.
It is worth noting that Mercury will square Mars, which can yield healing and proactive results. Mercury finds itself looking for answers, while Mars is asking that we embody and act on what we find. There is a great amount of resolution that can be had if we are willing to get more intimate and dig below the surface. Mars is churning and yearning for more; the desire for evolutionary dialogue is strong. Mercury’s square can turn intimate discussions into moments of immense connection. Progress and forward motion are the backbone of this eclipse. With this being a Solar Eclipse, consider it a fresh start.
Venus rules this eclipse. It will be caught up in a grand trine with Mars and Saturn, they are all stirring our motivations and intentions together. Saturn is slowing our process just a bit, but don’t let that hinder you. This harmonious triangle is looking for thoughtful movement. Decisions made and actions taken will have long-term implications. There will be a call to know our limits and how far we are willing to go for something or someone. Mars is in Cancer, a placement we will get well-acquainted with, and it is telling a new story for us where we can feel into our next steps. We can be in a space of seeking resolution in our lives, but may not know where to start. With Saturn in Pisces, we have to sit in the realm of surrender to find a sense of peace — and as Venus continues through Scorpio, we can discover immense depth in that surrender. Wherever the Water signs sit in your chart, you will see a momentary ease that can’t be ignored. Enjoy this to the fullest!
This eclipse is quite liminal. It shows us the spaces in between and how we can find more harmony in the grey area. It reminds us that when one decision is made, another isn’t taken away. There’s little room for the “either/or.” Magic happens when we find the “yes and” in life.
If you have any personal planets in your chart at 6º to 16º, you will feel the effects of this solar eclipse the most. Especially those with strong Cardinal placements. So, let’s break this down by sign! Always read Sun, Moon, and Rising.
ARIES TO CANCER
Aries & Aries Rising
The eclipses have been sitting in your sign and your polarity, creating waves and pathways that were not present to you before. You may have seen your life change in ways you have not expected. Some of you may take on more autonomy and independence and/or change how you engage in your relationships. Others have seen growth opportunities and significant relationships strengthen. Whatever it is, there has been a flowing exchange of energy that will lead to massive personal growth.
This solar eclipse may have your mind on your relationship, others in your life, and close connections as it moves through your 7th House. How are things faring for you? Some of you may seek to bring a relationship or partnership to the next level, while others may decide to walk away from one. Keep in mind that this can be non-romantic. Whatever it is, it seems to be working for you. You are seeing how important connections are and how others can increase your sense of self-awareness. The idea of reciprocity becomes big for you around this time. You are called to pay attention to how you exchange energy with those around you. Who takes too much? Who doesn’t? Where do you need to maintain boundaries? Where can you be more flexible?
Venus leads this lunation from your 8th House, and reaches out to both Mars and Saturn. This effectively creates a grand Water trine, harmonizing the softer parts of your chart. You may find yourself seeking refuge and rest now. As Venus, Mars, and Saturn all trine, the concept of “closure” feels incredibly important. Are you seeking it and with whom? Venus’s transit through a hidden part of your chart may bring up unresolved feelings or highlight what in your heart needs to be held closer. Nothing gold can stay, but while you have it, it can shine brilliantly. Find pleasure in the quiet moments you have right now.
Use this eclipse to focus on your boundaries. Understand the roles that you play in others’ lives and what they play in yours. See where you can receive and know what you have to give. Form new relationships and bury old ones that don’t support you. Seek out ways to create a better relationship with yourself above all else. Nothing will ever be as solid as the love you can give to yourself.
Taurus & Taurus Rising
Knowing your limits can be important. This month you are tasked with closing doors, learning to be better to your body, and focusing on the things in your immediate present. You have been taught the value of your needs and the difference between service/sacrifice. We can’t save everyone.
The eclipse will highlight your 6th House. So, this can be a great time to get your health together and place priority on your own needs. You may find that you are very busy around this solar eclipse, so ensure that you are taking the proper time to rest. You are probably noticing that you’re going back and combing through work you thought should have been completed by now. Alternatively, you could be really trying to get a project completed. Work/life balance seems a bit off right now. One of the big focuses of the 6th House is how you can update, change, or restructure your own routines and daily rituals. If you have something going on health-wise or just need a check-up, schedule it for around now! This eclipse will help you!
Venus, your ruler, leads this lunation from your 7th House! With it reaching out to both Mars and Saturn, it seems that you may be invited places or have a surprise bit of information come up from a friend or loved one. Venus enjoys the 7th House, so relationships can be quite easy right now. It may be good to keep lines of communication open and remain receptive to those around you. With the more social areas of your chart being activated, you could just feel like you have a lot going on! The busyness can start to feel obligatory or like a burden if you aren’t careful. This is a good reminder to know your limits and manage your expectations.
Use this eclipse to bring everything together. See how the small things in your life impact everything else. Pay attention to your body and work on making amends with how you may have abused it in the past. Work on getting healthier — physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually. Look for opportunities for growth in your work, daily life, and routines. Be flexible. See that perfection is not the goal — the process teaches us more than the outcome. Work on taking care of yourself.
Gemini & Gemini Rising
It is time to restore your sense of optimism! This eclipse comes in to remind you that life can be fun and playful! Over the next few weeks and months, you will learn the value of personal joy and collective happiness. Now, as this Solar Eclipse ushers in a new pathway, you can walk forward in a more focused manner.
The eclipse is in your 5th House. This feels like the perfect time to get re-inspired. Now is the time to engage with your inner child and be open to possibility. What do you find pleasure in? What makes you happy? Let’s try diving in with both feet and find the space where you can live on the brighter side of life. Your creativity will be at a peak, and it will be as if a bountiful life force is flowing from you! This also invites you to bring passion, excitement, and a little fun back into your life. This lunation can be super thrilling for you if you lean into it. Because this is a place of creation, some of you may be creating something entirely new: a project, art, music, relationship, or even the conception of a child. Alternatively, consider this eclipse a chance for you to sit in the spotlight a bit. It is ok to be recognized for your efforts and to celebrate your successes.
Venus leads this lunation from your 6th House, so there is still “work to do.” However, it feels more light, easy, or there is a general sense of being valued. Venus lessens tensions for you in the 6th House. It reaches out to Mars and Saturn creating a grand trine, one of the most harmonious aspects. You are sort of ready for new growth opportunities or to get a move on from something that is no longer working for you. Venus will ask you to follow your values first and foremost. With Saturn at play, you may also have to face some reality. In the process of living out your dreams or working on your aspirations, there are still details to manage and level-setting that may need to happen. Start small and let things grow from there.
Use this New Moon to find new ways to have fun. Follow your heart more and listen to your inner child. Seek new ways to engage in pleasure and creativity. Let loose. If you are looking to conceive (a child, a project or anything), let this eclipse be the thing that pushes you to start or get more focused on it. Anything that pulls at your heart will be favored. So really get in touch with what you desire most.
Cancer & cancer Rising
You have seen major changes to your internal and external worlds. With the eclipse series falling in fellow Cardinal signs (Aries and Libra), it will be impacting your 4th and 10th Houses. After what feels like a cycle of constant evolution and change – you can now start a new phase in your 4th House.
The 4th House rules family, home, roots, and your emotional foundations. Here, the eclipse will turn your attention to these areas. Perhaps you are looking to do some work around the house — renovations or redecorating. Maybe you are just on a house hunt overall, looking for new places to call home. Some of you may be finding more quiet time or family time, while seeking solitude after a busy few months. Whatever it is, you are bringing it all back to your center. Home is where the heart is. Family (given or chosen) could take a central focus as there may be changing dynamics in this area of your life. You will be redefining what family truly is, or what it means to you. You may be putting down stronger roots and focusing on your emotional well-being. This eclipse tells you all of that work isn’t for nothing. You can rejoice in the power you may call back and honor the peace you will create. Connect more deeply with your ancestors and get in touch with what truly matters to you.
Venus is the ruler of this eclipse, and it is so sweetly positioned for you. It is in a fellow water sign, Scorpio. It sits in your 5th House, helping you find value in the realms of joy and pleasure. It is not always easy to know when or how to take a risk, but you really seem to have a lot of support — more than you realize. Venus reaches out to Mars and Saturn creating immense harmony in your 1st, 5th, and 9th Houses. You may find ease where it was lacking before. You are being pushed to be more bold and confident now. Don’t be bashful. Accept whatever comes your way. With Saturn part of the picture, you are getting grounded and committed to a long-term goal or idea. If you are publishing, writing, going to school/taking a course, working on a visa, or traveling, this energy will help you significantly.
Use this eclipse to settle in and come back to center. Focus on your roots and your family. Find security in your emotional foundations and create a sanctuary for yourself. Find peace in the quiet. Work on things around the house and spruce up your space. If you want to move, this eclipse could give you the boost you need to find the right place! It is all coming together now.
LEO TO SCORPIO
Leo & Leo Rising
What could be better than a joyful eclipse in compatible Libra for you? This solar eclipse is an interesting one, shining in your 3rd House of communication, contracts, and local community. It seems that you may be starting a small project or working on something that is getting ready to take off! This lunation will ensure that it is in tip-top shape and no stone is left unturned.
The eclipse falls in your 3rd House where you are tasked to learn, adapt, and integrate. This is about how you communicate not only what you are saying — but also what you are hearing. Part of shifting your perspective comes through dialogue and the conversations that you have with others. Your voice is your power. Now, it is time to learn how to use it. Through the 3rd House, we learn to express ourselves and say what is on our minds. Sharing is an integral part of your personal exploration — and how you choose to share is important. There can be a feeling of people inundating you with messages around the eclipse. Perhaps you may hear news that you have been waiting for! You can start a new journey for yourself by applying the skills you have in new ways. Your local community will figure strongly as well, especially those close to you. They are here to uplift you and support you, but they won’t know what you need unless you tell them. Asking for help isn’t weak – especially if it is meant to help you grow.
Venus is the leader of this New Moon. It sits so nicely in your 4th House of family, home, sanctuary, and your emotional foundations. Right now, this area of your life is bringing you so much more fullness than it once had. It seems like things are coming together. You may be trying to grow your family, redecorating a bit, or even just finding peace in the quiet moments of your life. Venus will work well with Mars and Saturn, so there may be financial compensation coming your way or an unexpected resource that supports you! Alternatively, Saturn can have you getting more serious about your investments and how you connect with others on a deeper level. With the restful parts of your chart working well together, use this time for a vacation, respite, and slowing down where you can.
Use this eclipse to speak your magic into the world. Communication is key, and your words hold more power than they have in a long time. Don’t be afraid to tell others what you are thinking, but also be open to what they have to say. Create important dialogue and have those tough conversations. Be flexible and adapt to the ever-changing tides in life. You are being asked to integrate your experiences and open yourself up to new possibilities.
Virgo & Virgo Rising
We are now in the thick of Libra season, and the attention remains on your stability. We are in a pivotal time, eclipse season, opening new doors of opportunity for you. So, turn your attention to planting what you can, if you can — especially at this New Moon. You may hear that eclipses are not a time to do manifestation work, but this one is quite beautiful and powerful.
This Solar Eclipse is in your 2nd House, so your focus can be turned toward resources. Are you being valued for your work? What is your compensation like, even outside of income? Some of you may be looking for a raise, promotion, or change to your financial picture. Use this eclipse to push that forward for you. The Moon is gracious in Libra, so it is working to showcase your negotiating spirit! Remain grounded in your approach, but charge ahead knowing that you can grow an abundant garden from all that you decide to plant. Another major theme will be personal value. You are asked to own every facet of your talents and your experience. Notice what comes easy, what feels natural — this is where you will be most abundant. You don’t need to work so hard to achieve the success you desire. You are inherently worthy.
Happily, Venus leads this lunation. It sits in your 3rd House bringing up the more social side of your chart. You could feel especially chatty or inspired right now.

We just had an eclipse in your sign a few weeks ago. That was a turning point for you! Now, we are being presented with an eclipse in Libra. Perhaps, you are figuring out the space you fit in with a partner (whether in business or in your personal life). You can dive deep and unearth the core intentions of those around you, and even your own motives — as you aim to understand power dynamics and share your skills with others. With your 8th House being activated, you are reminded of the power of your efforts and how you can turn what others fear into something valuable.
Some cycles are meant to be broken, Pisces. This solar eclipse brings a fresh start to the cycle of your life. However, for you, this shift is felt so much more as your 8th House comes to focus. The 8th House rules intimacy, cycles, magic, shared resources, death/beginnings, and the shadows. You are descending into the shadow and are asked to confront what lies beneath the surface. Resilience is key as you walk through fire and ice to get to the core of what keeps you in your holding patterns. Like a Phoenix, you can rise again, burning brighter, faster, and hotter than ever before — but it may require a personal confrontation with your limitations first. Consider this a transformation and a metamorphosis for you. From the outside looking in, it may be hard for others to see you breaking down old structures and habits. The cycles are ending, and new ones are being established in their place. In the shadow, you now find more clarity than ever before. This is a chance to call back your power in a big way.
Venus will be in a fellow Water sign, harmonizing well with Saturn in your sign and Mars in Cancer. Venus rules this lunation and is asking that you remain open and engaged with the world around you.

This could be related to a speaking or writing matter, or it could just be inspiration coming out of nowhere for you! Whatever it is, you are excited and your mind is buzzing. With Saturn so present, show the maturity and wisdom you have gained in the last year. Your values have evolved, and with that, you have as well. You are embodying what you believe and who you are more than you have in a long time.
Use this eclipse to reflect on your growth and how you have transformed in the last year. Seek new resources. Get intimate with a partner or close relationship — even yourself. Focus on the power you hold personally, finding new ways of sharing who you are. Explore your depths, take hold of your fears, and no longer be held back by cyclic patterns that keep you trapped. This is about seeing new pathways that had once been hidden from view. You hold the keys.
