"Everyone has his own specific vocation or mission in life; everyone must carry out a concrete assignment that demands fulfillment. Therein he cannot be replaced, nor can his life be repeated, thus, everyone's task is unique as his specific opportunity to implement it." ~Viktor E. Frankl
I embrace my inner fire and move forward with clarity and courage.
I trust in my purpose and take bold steps toward my highest potential.
Full Moon in Aries | Thursday, 10/17/24 4:27 am PT
As we near the end of Libra season, the Aries Full Moon invites us to turn inward and focus on our own path and purpose. Aries, the warrior of the zodiac, brings a fiery energy that encourages action, courage, and the pursuit of our deepest dreams. This Full Moon is an opportunity to step back from external relationships and ask ourselves, "What do I truly want? What does my soul desire?" It’s a powerful moment to embrace your individuality, recognize your inner strength, and feel your life’s mission with clarity.
The Aries Full Moon also marks a time of harvesting the seeds planted six months ago during the New Moon in Aries. If those beginnings have flourished, now is the time to cultivate and celebrate them. If not, it’s an invitation to release what no longer serves you and move forward. By clearing away old burdens and creating inner space, we reconnect with our core self—the flame of clarity at our center. From this place of balance, we can find peace in the process of letting go and taking bold steps toward what truly matters.
“Near the end of Libra Season, we are greeted by the Aries Full Moon asking us to focus on ourselves, our purpose, and our soul’s journey. Aries is the warrior of the zodiac. This energy encourages us to take action, fight for what we believe in, and overcome any obstacles in the way of our dreams. This Full Moon always proves to be an exciting one and an opportunity to feel our life’s mission, then decide how to pursue it. Over this Full Moon, give yourself space away from the partnerships you’ve been working on for the last four weeks and focus on you. What do you want? What does your soul want?”
“During the Full Moon in Aries, which happens in autumn when the Sun is in Libra, rather than wanting to plant the seeds, this is the time when we want to cultivate the energy, to harvest the seeds that we planted six months ago during the New Moon in Aries back in spring. So the Aries Full Moon is the time when those things that we started to do, that were brand new, are now either coming to fruition and working, or not. If the seeds we planted are working for us, we then have to cultivate the crop, we have to harvest -- we have to do something with it. And if it’s not working, it’s time to let it go and to move on to something else.”
“The Aries Full Moon represents the flame of clarity that arises from this process of inner decluttering. Clearing away accumulation and releasing heavy burdens creates inner spaciousness and deeper self-knowing. This allows for a long awaited exhale that softens hard edges and outer fixations. The external gaze can finally turn within to the interior hearth flame that is your central self. Occupying this place of center is the point of balance on Libra's scales of justice. It is here where we live with one foot in the world of form/externality and the other in the world formlessness/interiority. Living from the center allows us to weigh all things in the balance and to hold multiple truths all at once.”
“The feeling of uncertainty can make you solve problems faster then is natural. Do not rush as if there was a deadline. Try to slow down so that you can decide what you want to do and proceed at your own comfortable pace.”
