Full Moon October 2018 Astrology

Definitions

Conjunction: Planets and points that form a conjunction are energies that are united. They are blended; therefore, they act together.

Opposition: The opposition is when planets are across the Zodiac wheel from each other. It’s a challenging or “hard” aspect because the energies are at odds

Sextile: The classical astrology meaning of a sextile is that the powers involved cooperate smoothly, so that they encourage and inspire one another. ..

Trine: The classical astrology meaning of a trine is that the powers involved are in harmony, so that they stimulate one another to increased activity and success.

On Oct. 5 the love and money planet we revere as Venus went retrograde. And it will stay that way until Nov. 16.  The full moon on Oct. 24 and Venus retrograde will work hand in hand in learning the art of letting go. Full moons typically signify the completion of a phase, so this full moon might be a particularly good time to light some candles and let go of something or someone that no longer serves the higher purpose of your heart matters.

For some signs, this interaction between the moon and Venus might bring financial matters into the spotlight. “While Venus is the ruler of the heart, she also rules over money, profits, and commissions. Under this Full Moon, our finances may be highlighted and we may have to take some measures to overhaul and create more security in our lives.”

The October 24 full moon at 01°13′ Taurus is conjunct Uranus. At less than one degree orb, this conjunction is the main astrological influence on the full moon. This means an uneasy mix of change, excitement and uncertainty for the two weeks of this moon phase. The full moon aspect of Sun opposite Moon means the change and uncertainty applies to you relationships. While Venus opposite Uranus focuses the change and uncertainty on love relationships but also your finances.

Full Moon October 2018 astrology is about change, excitement and uncertainty, especially in relationships. Venus opposite Uranus focuses the change and uncertainty on love relationships but also your finances.

The October 2018 full moon makes a more helpful aspect to Saturn which moderates the erratic and impulsive nature of Uranus. It turns unexpected changes into opportunities and relationship uncertainty into reassurance and commitment.

The fixed stars joining the October 24 full moon also bring a mix of problems and solutions. So Uranus with full moon October 2018 may bring unexpected love but will also show the vulnerabilities in your love life and finances. Saturn brings practical solutions that lead to greater security and stability.

Challenging Aspects

Venus opposite Uranus signals change or tension in your love life. If single, a new romance would be exciting, surprising, unusual or kinky. But it could also be risky, unstable and brief. Internet dating suits this aspect and you could find someone from a very different background or culture than your own. If you have a partner, an unexpected event, flirting, an affair or sexual experimentation may lead to drama or separation.

Whatever your situation, if love is not an option then change and excitement can manifest in another area of life. Financial windfalls are possible but you should be extra careful with money. Avoid a tendency to gamble or invest in get rich quick schemes. Find stimulation some other way through entertainment, especially on the internet.

Moon conjunct Uranus brings impulsive reactions. Sudden events may result in relationship upsets, family disputes, or a major change in an intimate relationship. Some eccentric or weird actions may not turn out so well, but one or two may prove extremely valuable. At times you may feel isolated or detached from your loved ones.

Moon opposite Venus increases your need for love and affection regardless of the consequences. If single, loneliness could cause you to lower your standards just to be with someone. If you have a partner, different moods or needs may expose simmering tensions. Whatever your relationship status, if your emotional needs are not fulfilled through human contact, you may be tempted to substitute with sugar, drugs, alcohol or shopping.

Helpful Aspects

Venus sextile Saturn increases your need for companionship. If single, it increases the likelihood of finding true love with someone who is also interested in long-term commitment. A teacher-student type relationship is possible, or there may be a marked age difference. If you have a partner, any unexpected change or kinkiness in the bedroom is now less likely to cause tension or separation.

Being dutiful about making your lover happy and content will bring reassurance and commitment. A practical and common sense approach will help fix any recent difficulties. There should be a mutual understanding and acknowledgement if a relationship has run its course. This aspect helps you save money and be more conservative with investments. It favors long-term investments in blue chip stocks, real estate or works of art.

Moon trine Saturn gives the patience and emotional strength to handle sensitive or difficult relationship issues. Others may come to you for advice on a personal issue or just for a shoulder to cry on. Traditional values and old habits can bring solutions to new problems. You can rely on strong instincts and common sense to make important decisions about your home, family and relationships.

How will October 2018 full moon affect you?

Aries

October’s full moon is illuminating your house of “work, money and security.” Which is basically like having a slots machine light up in winning beams of bright colors. A goal you might have written in your journal way back when (in May) could be coming to a “profitable” conclusion around this time.

Taurus

This full moon is in your sign, Taurus, so tune in to the moonbeams and those emotions of yours! “This lunation can bring a sudden revelation, and these can relate to your personal freedoms or attention to a partnership.” Don’t be surprised if you come across a surprising impulse with this full moon in your sign.

Gemini

Are you ready for an exhale so cleansing that it will feel as though you have just showered in the waterfalls of Eden? The Oct. 24 full moon offers healing for the Twins. If there’s something to let go of, or someone’s picture to finally move to the delete folder, this will be the time to do so. This full moon could be a powerful portal for a spiritual message—don’t dismiss any strong intuitive flashes or inner guidance!”

Cancer

It’s easy to get caught up in your own shell, Cancer. It’s comfortable in there. But the Oct. 24 full moon might have you realizing that you need to spend more time outside. “After becoming wrapped up in your personal life, you may realize the need to reach out to others and remind them that they matter to you.” This full moon could be a good time to share with the people you feel the most connected to.

Leo

Leo, your calendar might be blowing up with alerts around the full moon. This lunation is all about finding a balance between your besties and water cooler pals. This full moon”may bring the culmination of a significant work project or a scurry of activity on the job or in your public life.” While your professional services may require the heft of your responsibilities, make sure you also send the group chat a GIF that’ll make them laugh.

Virgo

The full moon whizzes into your ninth house of “global connections,” What does this intriguing house mean for you? “This full moon could bring an utterly magical moment in which one of your gambles pays off or a visionary idea springs to life—and spreads like wildfire. Your hunger for knowledge could be sated by a mind-blowing realization that helps you see a situation from a new perspective.” Something is going to click into place and apparently, it might be an airplane’s seatbelt this time.

Libra

Any feelings that have been flying off the radar will most likely make their way into the spotlight on Oct. 24 courtesy of the full moon’s illumination. “There can be a turning point or announcement in a relationship now.” Don’t be afraid to acknowledge all those ~feels~!

Scorpio

You don’t have to wait until the eve of a new year to redefine how you want to approach your life and the important relationships in it. You can make resolutions on say, Oct. 24, when the full moon lights up the night sky. It’ll feel important to re-write the definitions, terms and conditions on particular relationship dynamics. The full moon could help you hash out which relationships are right and which aren’t bringing you much joy these days.

Sagittarius

Maybe wear a sleep mask around the full moon so you can actually get some rest in with all that night light pouring into your sleep sanctuary. This full moon won’t be upset you’re shutting it out, anyways. For Sagittarius, the full moon on Oct. 24 is all about wellness. “You might decide to make a radical change to your diet, exercise or work routines.” Whatever the change, make sure it’s not too drastic that you drop it.

Capricorn

Drama !The word may follow you around as the moon reaches its fullest phase. According to Cafe Astrology, “there can be some drama in your romantic life.” if we’ve learned anything from things always getting sorted out.

Aquarius

Reality check, Aquarius. A natural humanitarian, you’re pulled to save the world, at least a little part of it, on the regular. But the world is a very big place and sometimes your personal life requires that same level of enthusiasm and attention. “It’s essential to have a strong sense of what you can and cannot do, not by lowering your standards, but through self-honesty and realism, and the last week of October brings gorgeous energies to help with this.” From worldly to wellness efforts, use this full moon as a chance to breathe and recuperate so you can get back out there with a freshly ironed cape and manicured nails.

Pisces

This full moon will illuminate your “third house of communication and community.” Those grand plans that you’ve been sitting on for months could suddenly be ready for their debut! expect the unexpected and the chance for all these things to happen at the drop of the hat. Stay alert, Pisces!

HAPPY NEW MOON (1 DAY LATE…SORRY) BUT STILL

HAPPY NEW MOON (1 DAY LATE…SORRY) BUT STILL…

The New Moon on Monday October 8, 2018 falls at 15° Libra.

Welcome to the first new moon of both autumn and Libra season! The upcoming new moon will rise on Oct. 8 in the sign of Libra, and it’s bringing with it waves of change and internal conflict. Because new moons signify the beginning of a fresh lunar cycle, they are always bursting with the energy of new beginnings, granting us Earthlings a little cosmic energy boost to help us start new projects, set goals and intentions, and manifest fresh ideas. Both the sun and the moon will be sharing the sign of Libra during this new moon, making this cardinal air sign’s vibe all the more powerful for everyone. Here’s what Libra is great at: Balance and seeing all sides of a situation.

The New Moon October 2018 astrology is similar to the January 2018 lunar eclipse. They both make exactly the same aspects to Neptune and the minor planet Ceres. Expect to feel more sensitive, sympathetic and comforting towards your loved ones. This new moon brings attention to the rights and conditions of women in nontraditional families, single women, working women and single parents.

The October 2018 new moon square Pluto adds drama and intensity. A health or relationships crisis may force a radical transformation. You may have to become ruthless in eliminating poison from your life. This is a good new moon for starting a new diet, exercise or detoxification regime.

New Moon Conjunct Ceres
Minor planet Ceres rules motherly love, female reproductive issues, family bonds and relationships. As a virgin goddess, Ceres represents independent single women and sole parents. As a grain goddess, Ceres rules the growing of plants and food crops, the harvest, natural resources and the environment.

So New Moon October 2018 should make you more sympathetic and comforting towards your family and especially children. You may want to care for others but don’t forget to nurture yourself. Showing your warm and protective nature can also make you more attractive to you partner or potential partners.

The October 8 new moon will focus attention on the rights and freedoms single mothers and working mothers. Social discussions and political debate in this moon phase will include parenting styles, custody rights, maternity leave, childcare and equal pay.

The environment and climate change should also be topical, and how they affect food production. Other planetary aspects mentioned below also point to concern about chemicals like pesticides, plastic packaging and growth hormones. Then there are the effects of genetically modified foods, excessive amounts of sugar, and even more suspect practices of multinational food corporations.

New Moon Square Pluto
Sun square Pluto increases your need to be in control, but can also lead to ego conflicts with other powerful people or authority figures. A crisis or conflict could lead to extreme or destructive behavior. Bullying, threats or intimidation could force you into a corner, where you have to either defend your position or make a major change. Such intense experiences may trigger deeply buried psychological issues involving fears of death, losing control, abuse or persecution.

Facing your fears will help you understand your need to be in control. This will help you evolve and let things go, relax and feel less threatened. This transformation or rebirth and will leave you with a greater sense of inner power. You can then channel your intensity into success through ambition and hard work.

HAPPY NEW MOON IN LIBRA

HAPPY NEW MOON (1 DAY LATE…SORRY) BUT STILL…

The New Moon on Monday October 8, 2018 falls at 15° Libra.

Check out exactly how October’s new moon in Libra will affect your sign.

Aries (March 21 – April 19)
During this new moon, relationships are in flux, and you’ll feel the effects of other signs having to maintain stronger boundaries as a result. “Your relationships may be changing right now, as others are imposing much needed boundaries — accept the new path of the relationship and understand it’s essential for all relationships to stay in tact,” advises Stardust. While things certainly feel unclear, Aries, try to surrender to the changes and allow yourself to adjust to the new parameters of the relationships closest to you.

Taurus (April 20 – May 20)
Oh, Taurus, this moon isn’t leaving anything unscathed for you — which makes sense, since your sign is also ruled by currently-retrograding Venus. “Relationship issues may come to a head as your workload has piled up — try to create balance and give your partner some TLC,” Stardust tells Bustle. Take deep breaths and draw on the gentle, beauty-lovin’ nature of Libra to help you through. Both work and your relationships can survive this transit so long as you allow yourself to flow with the changes and be extra-kind to yourself and others.

Gemini (May 21 – June 20)
You’ve likely had no shortage of action and emotion in the romance department since the autumnal equinox, Gemini, and this new moon doesn’t let up — although you may be feeling some confusion. “A new crush may give off mixed signals, making you question the direction of the relationship,” explains Stardust. “Don’t overthink it, just go with the flow and see where it takes you.” Again, relationships are in a state of flux for all signs during this moon, so try to take things as they come and follow your feelings without being over-analytical.

Cancer (June 21 – July 22)
You’re feeling the sense of transformation really deeply, Cancer, and it may be an upheaval of your entire belief system. “Your internal beliefs are changing, forcing you to be more open minded — which may be hard, as you are a creature of habit,” Stardust explains to Bustle. When the foundations of who you are and what you stand for are shaken, it’s hard for anyone to cope with, so make sure to focus on self-love and acceptance and follow your intuition to what feels right.

Leo (July 23 – Aug. 22)
Leo, prepare to do what you do best: Bask in the glow of everyone’s attention. You’ve certainly got a spark during this luminary! “You’re the center of gossip Leo, which fits your desire [for] attention,” Stardust tells Bustle. “[S]ome of the gossip, whether true or not, is quite flattering.” That said, be very careful not to get too caught up in surface things, as the moon being in Libra can actually amplify that tendency, adding to the general confusion that many of us are feeling. Keep your feet on the ground, but enjoy the changes that are taking place inside and out.

Virgo (Aug. 23 – Sept. 22)
Venus retrograde is already taking effect, and this new moon only amplifies your need to think hard about your money situation, Virgo. “Money matters come to a head, forcing you to reevaluate your finances,” explains Stardust. “Fortunately for you, pennies you’ve saved for a rainy day are now needed.” You never show up unprepared, and in this case, it’s going to serve you well. So instead of focusing on the bummer of money stress, be grateful that you’re (hopefully!) figuring out a way to push through to the other side.

Libra (Sept. 23 – Oct. 22)
It’s your season, Libra, and the moon, sun, and stars are offering you a chance to change — are you ready to seize the opportunity? As Stardust explains, “The Sun’s light is on you, allowing for transformation and growth — this is your time to evolve, if you’re ready!” Channel the new moon’s transformational energy to elevate into exciting new chapters. You know the saying “If you jump, the net will appear”? Remember that when your indecisiveness tries to take over, and be sure to listen to your higher self.

Scorpio (Oct. 23 – Nov. 21)
Given that you’re ruled by the planet Pluto, you’re no stranger to deep transformation — but this moon’s energy can take its toll on you. “It’s time to dip out of the social scene and focus on resting your soul — take some much needed solo time to recharge your batteries,” Stardust shares with Bustle. Practice self-care in the form of clearing toxins out of your life — both literally, when it comes to food and beauty products, but also emotionally when it comes to relationships and feelings.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22 – Dec. 21)
Your relationships are transforming just as much as everyone else’s during this moon, Sag, but the difference is that people may start asking a lot of you. “Your peers may call on you for much needed advice — after all, you are known for your worldly and honest pursuits,” Stardust shares. “Listen and help your friends now,” Stardust continues, “they need your stellar advice.” You’ve got the capacity to share, so call on Libra’s diplomatic, social spirit and offer an ear to friends or partners who may need your insights.

Capricorn (Dec. 22 – Jan. 19)
Ever since the autumnal equinox, you’ve been having a wild and successful ride career-wise. But with this new moon and its ability to cause us to second-guess our feelings, you may have some things to consider. “The world will take notice of you now, however, you may not be ready for sudden fame,” Stardust explains to Bustle. “Think about your career direction to see if you really want all your dreams to come true in actuality.” Now’s the perfect time to change your path, if that’s what you so desire, so dig deep and get in touch with what you really want so you can harness this energy if so.

Aquarius (Jan. 20 – Feb. 18)
September’s full moon in Aries was an emotionally rough one for everyone — but you may have never really even had a chance to check in with yourself around it, given your hectic schedule. “Clock watching has left you thirsty for a distraction,” shares Stardust, and advises you to “plan a weekend trip with friends to escape mundane daily activities.” Embrace the changes on the horizon, Aquarius, and allow yourself some self-care in the form of social bonding time.

Pisces (Feb. 19 – March 20)
The dynamics in your relationships are changing, Pisces — and guess what? So are you. “You’re implementing structure and boundaries within relationships now, which may leave others confused, as you usually aren’t confrontational,” Stardust tells Bustle. While you’ll always be emotionally sensitive and in-tune, that doesn’t mean you can’t set firm boundaries — in fact, it’s probably extra important for you to do so given your intuitive nature. Embrace this side of yourself during October’s new moon, and others will, too.
