The Full Moon – A Stormy Week

Here on the East Coast of the USA this Full Moon brings with it storm, wind and rain. The Full Moon chart for the nation’s capitol has wet Pisces on the Ascendant and windy Gemini on the 4^th house cusp.  Weather storms are not the only types of storms that this Full Moon heralds. Venus, the planet of love and money, opposes Uranus and squares Pluto.  Venus having just entered her home sign of Libra sits in the 7^th house, her natural home giving her some extra oomph something she will need as she moves into exact aspect with the big boys Uranus and Pluto.  Expect storms to brew within relationships with issues of money, freedom and who is in control to surface.  Mars in Sagittarius opposes Jupiter in Gemini.  Mars is all about action and Jupiter brings abundance to the table. Mercury enters Sagittarius early Monday morning promising some big talk and perhaps loose tongues promising more than can be delivered. Mercury making a square aspect to Neptune in Pisces indicates delusional thinking.  There’s a lot of that going around so be sure to check the facts before climbing on board someone’s bandwagon.

Moon moves from fixed Taurus into airy, mutable Gemini on Wednesday afternoon.  Moon moves into aspect with the major players of the Full Moon chart kicking off events related to the symbolism of the particular planet.  Neptune planet of illusion, delusion and the mystical may reveal some truths when hit by transiting Moon. Or is it the truth? One never really knows with Neptune.  A Gemini Moon opposing a Sagittarius Mercury guarantees discussions often about the big picture and generally overflowing with information and excessive verbiage.  Try to get to the point quickly before your audience begins to yawn.  Late Wednesday night Moon makes a lovely trine aspect to Venus and talk of love fills the air. Money and values will enter the picture as well.   

Early Thursday, November 1^st Moon connects with volatile Uranus and anything goes.  By early evening Venus will make her opposition to Uranus exact and Moon will conjunct Jupiter.  These aspects may trigger a big news event on the world stage and on a more personal level lightning bolts and out of the blue actions and events disrupt relationships, money deals and social plans.  Early Friday morning Moon opposes Mars in Sagittarius setting off sparks.

Early Saturday morning, November 3^rd Moon enters Cancer. Moon is at home here and emotional actions and reactions will reign over the next three days. Saturday afternoon brings the exact square between Venus and Pluto. Pluto likes to abduct fair maidens and Venus in Libra is the fairest of them all. Venus in Libra speaks to fairness and justice and these values may get hijacked by the corporate institutions that Pluto represents.  On a personal level it is a relationship between equals that needs to be maintained.  

The optimal way to ride out the storms of this week is always to try and take the high road.  Take care of your own interests and stand in your truth for sure but examine your motives and try not to let the big ego take control. Often that is easier said than done.  A little meditation goes a long way during these volatile periods.
