Full Moon in Libra: Relationships With a Twist of the Unexpected


Right now ( April 10th 2017 11:08 PM PST) as I am writing this there is a Full Moon happening in Libra. It's been interesting in the cosmos lately and this Full Moon is just one more piece of the puzzle. There has been an emphasis on relationships lately and this Full Moon is no different. 

Full Moons are a time of harvest so expect certain things to come to fruition. It's a time to let go though as the Moon begins to wane. The Full Moon is also overrun with Cardinal energy, which is all about starting new things. The Sun in Aries just amplifies this, since Aries is the first sign of the zodiac and the sign of new beginnings. It's an interesting time because it's time to let go of some things and yet it's time to start fresh at the same time. It's important to remember as well that we may not be aware of the full picture yet as Venus and Mercury are still retrograde. We are all still reflecting and figuring it out. 

Themes surrounding this Full Moon are: relationships, compromise, love, individuality, transforming  structures in our lives and commitment. 

The Moon in Libra along with it's conjunction to Jupiter is the part of the puzzle that is really highlighting relationships, harmony within them and love. Emotionally there is a focus on relationships and maybe a need for them. The Moon is always 'hungry' and so with the Moon in Libra it is hungry for harmonious relationships. Jupiter is helping out the Moon nicely and is pushing us to grow and expand the way we relate in partnerships. Jupiter is in a retrograde however and Venus who rules Libra is retrograde as well, so there's still internal work to be done in the relationship arena.

The Sun in Aries along with it's conjunction to Uranus is highlighting our individuality. This energy is very focused on the 'self'. Of course we have to balance the 'me' with the 'we' which has been a ongoing theme for months now. With the Sun in Aries we want to shine in our individuality and to impulsively go after what we want. With the Uranus influence there may be a desire for some freedom and liberation as well. This is a combination of planets that craves the new and may bring in the unexpected. We may all be in for an element of surprise. 

Pluto in Capricorn is squaring the Sun and Moon (forming a T-square) and has an authoritarian type energy reminding us "what we need to be doing." It's pushing us to transform the structures in our lives though. This may create tension, but the kind of tension that helps us make changes. It's also interesting to note that the asteroid Juno will be close to Pluto and also loosely squaring the Sun and Moon. Juno is the asteroid concerned with committed relationships. We are being pushed to transform our committed relationships. There could be a shakeup within a commitment. This asteroid of commitment is adding to the relationship story in some way that's for sure. 

~Overall this is an action packed Full Moon. It's happening at such an interesting time too, with Venus in her last stretch of retrograde and Mercury just starting a retrograde. Our lives are being shaken up that's for sure! Always for the better though. There is a beautiful story and evolvement happening particularly within relationships. ~
