The Full Moon for October appears October 4th, in the sign of Aries. Its Native American name is Harvest Moon. This is a time to take decisive steps towards goals that were set during the September New Moon in Virgo. There is a focus here on health, and on changes that we are choosing to make in our daily routine (as opposed to changed that are thrust upon us).
Aries has a tendency to not want to remember lessons learned. We have to watch ourselves so that we remember the trials that we have been through, so that we do not repeat them. We are blessed with Saturn in Virgo, which helps us to organize things, and release that which is no longer serving us well.
This is a good time to stop, take stock of where you are, where you want to be, and how you hope to get there. We are heading for the downtime of fall and winter, where we rest and plan for the new year.
What are you bringing to a close? What are you releasing? How is your direction changing? Remember – you are the director of your own life.
