The Aries Full Moon lights up the sky this Friday September 29 and it is calling in a new chapter. If you can think back to late March this year (around the 20th-22nd) this was a period where there was some sort of ending taking place. The Full Moon that comes this week will help you firstly find some solstice in what took place, and secondly call for you to now open to a new beginning in this area of your life.

If we cast our minds back to March 2023, there was a powerful Aries New Moon, followed by an Aries New Moon Solar Eclipse in April. The intentions set at that time are now likely to be in full bloom under this Aries Full Moon.

A NEW CHAPTER IS HERE

The Aries Full Moon represents the start of a new chapter. If you can think back to the 20th-22nd of March, earlier this year, you were being called to let go and release old energy. This energy may have manifested as the ending of a relationship, a job, a living situation etc. However beneath that it was about the letting go of an old consciousness or way of thinking. The past 6 months have offered you the time to slowly come to terms with the ending of that chapter, and this Full Moon is ready to welcome you into new energy and manifestations that match this emerging consciousness that has been revealed within you over the last half a year.

The Aries Full Moon holds fantastic potential for helping us to take our ideas from our minds and into physical form. There is an entrepreneurial flow that comes when Aries energy is strong, so use it to your advantage. The energies under an Aries Full Moon can also be fiery and headstrong, encouraging us to be bold and daring in our approach. We can feel a boost of confidence, and we may be willing to take greater risks to get the outcome we want.

CAUTION; If your life could use a little more confidence, a little more movement, and a little more passion, the Aries Full Moon will be on your side! Of course, there is another side to this energy too, as sometimes when fiery energy is strong we can be prone to anger, outbursts, aggression, and frustrations. If we have something bubbling within, we may find ourselves easily triggered under this Full Moon.

Being mindful of this can help us to find healthy outlets to release and express how we feel. One of the best outlets that Aries energy favors is movement, so things like exercise, dancing, and taking action are all great ways to soften and release any heated emotions that rise up.

THIS IS A MOON OF ALCHEMY

This Full Moon will be at 6 degrees of Aries. As such it holds within it the energy of sacred union and alchemy. For those of you familiar with tarot, this is the energy of the Lovers Card. Yes, for some of us this may manifest as quite literally a new lover or relationship, but if you take a look deeper this is an energy that is calling for greater internal union between the evolving soul (Jiva Atman) and the over soul (Atman). As such you might start to see how the past 6 months have had you shedding all that is out of alignment with your vibration – and really starting the journey of honouring your consciousness. Remember that although we are all one, we manifest at different vibrations (levels of consciousness).

IT’S TIME TO SPARK SOMETHING NEW

Aries offers an energy of initiation and it calls for something new to start. This isn’t a Full Moon to overthink things, but rather to allow yourself to dive head first into a new chapter. This can take a lot of courage, and also call for you to have a lot of trust in your body’s intelligence. Which is a key to Aries energy, which tends to speak through the body (as opposed to the mind). Now, this isn’t a Moon for focusing on details or finishing a project. In fact you might find it hard to do just that under this Aries energy…

The Aries Full Moon and Chiron, the Wounded Healer

Chiron, the asteroid known as the wounded healer, is active under this Full Moon, hovering close to it. Chiron guides us to find the power in our wounds, rather than the sorrow. While sorrow and grief are often connected to our wounds and forever a part of them, Chiron teaches us that a new strength and wisdom can rise from them.

Rather than sugarcoating or pretending our wounds don’t bother us, Chiron allows us to wear them as part of the beautiful fabric of life and part of the beautiful fabric of who we are.

Full Moons have a way of illuminating things for us, and as the Aries Full Moon lights up the end of the month, we may start to feel like we can see the end of the year in sight – which may feel both overwhelming and reassuring!

With the Eclipses around the corner, it may help to have some sense of stability in your life. While we can’t control everything, and Eclipses are notorious for bringing change, having something to work towards and plan around can bring ease at a time like this.

It doesn’t have to be anything big or grand, but creating a routine for yourself, setting boundaries, and having some beauty and art in your life are all things that can help.

Overall, the Aries Full Moon is a diamond shining bright in our sky and a powerful reminder that we too are creators of this Universe.

HOW LIBRA SEASON WILL AFFECT YOUR SIGN:

The Overall Mood and Vibe of Libra Season

For a sense of how Libra functions in astrology from mid September to mid October, look no further than the sign’s ruler: sweet Venus, the planet of relationships, beauty, art, and money and values. Libra is drawn to and thrives on socializing; they often strive to be the host with the most, as well as someone who’s known for creating aesthetically pleasing (perhaps Instagram-friendly) and memorable moments. Anyone born with Libra placements in their birth chart (meaning Libra is their sun sign, one of their “big three”, or even their “big six”) might be driven to set a scene that’s as buzzy as it is blissful and eye-catching.

The other side of that coin: Libra abhors conflict and will go out of their way to preempt it. This goes hand in hand with the air sign’s symbol, the Scales, which represents their need to create balance and see both sides of any given issue. They’re natural peacemakers and mediators. It also bears noting that as a cardinal sign, Libra is the most go getter, initiative taking of all the air signs. So while they’d seriously prefer not to butt heads in order to blaze their trail, Libra is wired to dive headfirst into ambitious projects.

Associated with the seventh house of partnership, Libras might love hosting a crowd but are actually most content when they’re pairing up and connecting with a loved one or dear friend one on one. (If any sign is most susceptible to being a serial monogamist, it’s the cardinal air sign!)

All of that said, while the sun moves through the sign during Libra season, we’re all more aware of the state of our one-on-one bonds. You could find you’re more inspired than you were during previous seasons to get serious about swiping and online dating. Or maybe it’s become all too apparent that a particular friendship is peppered with red flags. It may also be as simple as realizing that you’re most productive working on a professional project with one colleague versus a group, or deciding to work out with a personal trainer as opposed to hitting the gym solo. Libra season also makes us even more aware of issues of injustice and imbalance that must be addressed — in our personal lives, sure, but also in the world.

Aries (March 20-April 19)

Because the confident sun is moving through your seventh house of partnership now, Aries, Libra season encourages you to zero in on your closest friendship, relationship, maybe professional partnership. You can’t help but reflect on the ways in which you’re there for the people with whom you share your tightest bonds — and also consider how they’re showing up for you. Reciprocity is a must, and if someone’s not giving as much as you, it could be time to reassess the connection.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

The sun’s trip through your sixth house of routine and wellness brings your attention to your day-to-day ongoings and the ways in which you care for your inner balance. You could be inspired to try a new fitness plan, reorganize your home office, or streamline your commitments so you’re focusing even more exclusively on projects that align with your bigger goals.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

Virgo season can actually inspire you to slow down a bit more than usual, because the sun moves through your fourth house of home life, encouraging you to be a bit of a homebody. But once it slips into Libra, it’s a whole new vibe, because the sun in your fifth house of romance and self-expression fuels your desire to flirt, connect, be spontaneous, be playful, and lean into your artistic impulses. In other words, this is one of the most fun times of year for you, Gemini — enjoy!

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

Over the last month, as the sun has moved through Virgo, it’s been in your third house of communication, which is a super-social zone, so your schedule has probably been bursting at the seams with to-dos and meet-ups with friends — perhaps even more than you would have ideally liked. Now that it’s in your fourth house of home life, you’ll find the pace of life gets a bit slower and cozier. You can focus even more on one of your favorite pastimes: bonding with your nearest and dearest.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

Fall might inspire some people to slow down and rest more, but that’s probably not going to be the case for you, Leo, thanks to your ruler, the confident sun, moving through your third house of communication, which is one of the most social places for it to be. In fact, given all the invitations to hang with friends, after work happy hours, short-distance trips, and workouts with friends, you might run the risk of getting run down, so be sure to set aside time for recharging self-care.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

The sun’s trip through your sign is always lovely, because it’s your birthday season, which can have you lighting up the room even more than usual. But now that it has slipped into your second house of income, you can take any big picture ideas or passion projects you’ve been batting around and actually turn them into something concrete. You’ll be eager to start putting one foot in front of the other and seeing your vision come to life. Just be sure that whatever you’re working on is also in line with your values, as that’s the secret to succeeding now.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct 22)

Welcome to your season, Libra! Virgo season can be a bit sleepy, because the sun moves through your twelfth house of spirituality, but now that the sun is shining on you and your first house of self, you can step into the limelight. You’ll be extra conscious of how you’re presenting yourself, perhaps even inspired to makeover your website, business cards, or social media presence. This can also be a wonderful time to get extra clear on what you want to achieve — and begin to say it out loud, as that’s the first step toward manifestation.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

With the sun in your twelfth house of spirituality now, it’s almost like you’re backstage, resting and dreaming and perhaps also waiting with anticipation to step out under the hot lights. You might be apt to prioritize self-reflection and learn from your dreams. You’ll also benefit from nurturing your psychological well-being with a mind-body practice (like journaling or meditating).

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

While the confident sun moves through your eleventh house of networking, Sag, you’re bound to be even more social and tending to your connections to friends and colleagues. If there’s a long-term aspiration you’ve been wanting to tend to, trading notes with others can help you gain even more clarity around the best game plan for making it a reality. You’ll also feel reassured that you’re part of a community that makes you feel seen and appreciated for what you bring to the table.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

Throughout Virgo season, you may be more willing to take leaps of faith, travel, get outside of your comfort zone, and hone your skills by soaking up knowledge. And as the sun moves through your tenth house of career and public image during Libra season, you can apply whatever you’ve learned over the past month to advance your professional standing. Now’s a moment for taking on a leadership position or putting your hat in the ring for more responsibility. You likely can’t help but make a winning impression on higher-ups.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

If you’ve been itching to break free of your mundane routine, see new sights, meet new people, and just generally broaden your horizons, there is no better season than Libra season, because the sun moves through your ninth house of higher learning and adventure. Make a point to tune into your intuition in order to get clear on what you really want to achieve and what will bring you the greatest sense of fulfillment — whether that’s working with a mentor, signing up for a class, or planning a globetrotting experience.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

Libra season is your opportunity to connect in an even more meaningful way with your nearest and dearest, Pisces, thanks to the confident sun’s trip through your eighth house of emotional bonds and intimacy. You could feel particularly self-assured when expressing your sexual needs now, and you’ll also become more conscious of what bolsters your sense of comfort and security — physically and emotionally. Opening up about these epiphanies and more can be truly empowering.

The era of establishing some order in our lives has arrived. On September 14, the new moon in Virgo will bestow its gifts upon us, pushing us forward and inspiring us to be productive in the areas of our lives that need it most. This energy will bring us a fresh, organized start — and you can use it to your advantage.

Virgo is a sign that likes effective time management and getting shit done.  During this new moon, you may feel a stronger urge to get organized, whether it’s in your personal life, work, or home environment.  It’s an excellent time for decluttering and streamlining your routines.  Be realistic, though — Rome wasn’t built in a day, and your new-and-improved routine won’t be as foolproof as you want it to be during the glow of a new moon.

 Of all zodiac signs, Virgo is the most detail-oriented, gifting us the analytical skills we now need to see our current situations from an objective perspective. To make the best of this energy embrace practicality: Make lists, prioritize facts and figures, and analyze what needs to be changed and why. And take your time! Only then will we be set up for the ultimate success.

This particular new moon aspects both Uranus retrograde and Neptune retrograde, and the planetary ruler of the new moon in Virgo is Mercury, which is also retrograde.  This means that secrets will be revealed and miscommunications will be had. Uranus retrograde in Taurus will add an element of surprise while Neptune retrograde in Pisces will expose clandestine matters.  Now that we know the truth, can we ever go home or see people and situations in the same light?

The new moon occurs the day before Mercury retrograde ends, and those specific days are called  station days. They  often coincide with a moment of change or an important turning point.  As we plant new seeds under this new moon, we may also receive flashes of insight or experience a major upgrade to the Virgo section of our birth chart as Mercury changes directions in the sky.  We’re not only ready for a new beginning, but we’re also ready to move in a new direction.

The new moon will be forming a grand trine in the sky with Uranus retrograde in Taurus and Pluto retrograde in Capricorn, which will unite all of the earth signs, and this will offer us a very unique portal for manifestation this year. “In astrology, grand trines are aspects of alignment, support, and flow. Taking place in material earth signs, this is a fertile opportunity to set intentions to build something tangible in the real world.”

While this is a time to decide what we want to change in our lives, it may be better to put off implementing that change, but only for a little. This is because during this potent time, the sun will be forming an opposition with Neptune. “While this intense clash should not stop us, we must be aware that it could have a confusing effect. For this reason, this new moon is not the correct time to make changes just yet. The correct time to act comes one week later, once the Fall Equinox arrives on September 22.

New moons in Virgo are here to remind us that there is magic in everyday life, according to Campos. While sometimes we can’t feel that magic, trust us — it’s there. And it’s waiting for you to grab hold of it.

Here’s What September’s New Moon In Virgo Means For Your Zodiac Sign

Can you feel it? As we near the end of Virgo season, there’s a shift in the air. The light in our day begins to fade sooner as autumn meets us around the corner.

Although it’s officially the end of summer, there’s a powerful and restorative new moon that will bring life to our motivation. The new moon in Virgo will clear a better path for you to turn over a new leaf in your life. There is hope in the air and a restorative flow that will help you shape your life to your vision.

The new moon in Virgo will begin its works on September 14^th at 9:40 pm EST, and it will activate a grand earth trine! This is an auspicious moment as the element earth has a building and supportive energy and will extend our ability to realize what needs to be done through due diligence. The new moon in Virgo will form a trine to Pluto, the transformation planet, and Uranus, the innovator.

The power trio will help you step into a new and improved paradigm by letting go of the clutches of old security blankets so you can make bold choices and align with your passions. Only this time, you’ll be better prepared with the support of the earth element of Virgo. The best part about this new moon phase? We’re so close to the end of Mercury retrograde, which ends on the 15th! This means that your plans and ambitions will begin to pick up speed, and what better time than after this rejuvenating new moon? The key word of this astrology event is renewal — with your next steps, you’ll feel the stars’ support and reassurance.

The new moon in Virgo will impact the mutable signs such as Gemini, Virgo, Sagittarius, and Pisces. If your natal chart’s planetary placements are 21 degrees within the mutable signs, you’ll find brilliance in this new moon event. Remember, the closer the degree, the more impact!

Let’s learn about how the new moon works. The new moon is when the moon and sun align. From our vantage point, the moon covers the sun, allowing us to reflect and seek our intention. Hence, we astrologers recommend manifesting around this time so you can narrow down what area of focus you wish to master. The moon is at its most pure expression and extends a clean slate. It is a great opportunity to pinpoint the core of your desires and then pursue them. There’s the magic.
