The Big Reveal

We are all feeling the intensity right now. Consider how you manage your emotions. For myself, it’s been a call to disconnect a little from the news cycle and to spend more time grounding. I’ve joined a Tuesday night meditation group to help manage the anxiety that rises when the world feels uncertain.

I am personally in a nodal return, a cycle that repeats every 18 years when the lunar nodes return to the position of your birth. The South Node in Virgo is highlighting my third house of the mind. This has been a beautiful opportunity to understand my thought patterns and how I process information - especially in times of change. 

I’m also looking forward to the OPA Cosmic Shift Retreat in Park City, Utah, October 15–19, where I’ll be teaching a three-day immersion on Predictive Astrology. We had such a fantastic time at the last retreat, and I still have two slots available. Click here to join us.

The Libra Sun: Relationships and Balance

The Sun is in Libra, shining its light on all types of relationships. Libra governs:

• Partnerships, marriages, and commitments
• Friendships and alliances
• Diplomacy, negotiations, and justice
• Beauty, art, and culture
• Fairness, social standing, and reputation

This is the time to examine the give-and-take in your relationships. Where do you over-accommodate? Where do you demand too much?

The Aries Moon: The Self and Survival

The Moon in Aries emphasizes the opposite side of the spectrum: the self. Aries energy invites us into:

• Self-confidence and independence
• Courage and willingness to take risks 
• Leadership and trailblazing action
• Fiery passion and survival instincts

On the shadow side, Aries can bring impulsivity, conflict, and violence. This lunation elevates the potential for arguments, accidents, and escalation. Awareness and grounding are essential.

Mercury in Scorpio: Secrets Revealed

On the same day as the Full Moon, Mercury enters Scorpio, pulling conversations into hidden terrain. The unspoken becomes spoken. Expect sexual scandals, betrayals, or deep revelations to come to the surface.

Mercury Square Pluto: Outages and Disruptions

By Tuesday, Mercury squares Pluto in Aquarius, pointing to possible communication outages, power disruptions, or data breaches. Back up your files and charge your devices. On a deeper level, this energy demands we confront the power dynamics underlying our conversations.

Health and Safety: A Word of Caution

This lunation carries an elevated risk around:

• Drugs and medication — accidental overdoses or double doses
• Conflict and violence — escalation and aggression in the collective
• Impulsive choices — acting before thinking

Stay grounded, aware of your surroundings, and practice self-care.

The Moon Phase Family

This Aries Full Moon belongs to the lunar phase family that began with the April 8, 2024 solar eclipse in Aries. That eclipse was conjunct the United States’ Chiron, the wounded healer, and began a powerful collective and personal story. Nine months later, on January 6, 2025, the first quarter Moon activated the same Aries degrees, pushing the narrative forward. Now, at this Full Moon on October 6, 2025, we see a culmination point. The last quarter phase will arrive on July 7, 2026, offering lessons and closure.

Think back—what was beginning in your life in spring 2024? This lunation may bring clarity or a turning point in that storyline.
