Full Moon at 16 degrees Aries on October 9^th. Aries is a warrior and resilient. It is the closure of something important. The Full moon is in opposition to Libra which is represented by the scales of balance, harmony, and the law. This can be a time when we rush to defend someone and are impatient. There are so many aspects during this Full Moon including Neptune and Mercury. It is best to take a breath before we act.

In 2008 October through November, we had an opposition between Saturn and Uranus and now we have the last square between Saturn and Uranus and the North Node is conjunct Uranus.  2008 was a major financial upheaval. Now we are in the last waning square between Saturn in Aquarius and Uranus in Taurus. The financial market looks bleak.  The grocery stores are looking empty again. Plan ahead and keep your head up. We have been dealing with this square since 2020. Change is coming. We must rebuild the old structures in our society. We are almost past this. The United States has been in a Pluto return for the last couple of years. This is a regeneration cycle for this country. This is an intense period particularly if you have planets between 26 degrees and 27 degrees in the cardinal signs.

Mercury moves stationary direct on October 2^nd in Virgo. The aspect it’s making is an opposition to Neptune in Pisces. This is extremely mirky water. Pisces in Neptune is generally very positive, but it causes rose-colored glasses. Mercury is in opposition to Neptune within one degree which can cause problems with reality. We can get misled easily during this transit. Checking the facts is important. Neptune in Pisces is positive for meditation, art music, and for being intuitive. Pisces is a very empathic sign and with Neptune, in Pisces, it is very comfortable. It is excellent for Qigong, Tai chi, and yoga to bring the mind into the body. This is a great time to have a getaway. This aspect will be within 3 degrees until October 8^th.

Mercury is still making a tight aspect with Pluto until October 11^th.  This is like a truth serum that we are drinking and is a penetrating mental combination. Pluto energy is forceful and can be obsessive which can get to bottom of a problem.

Mars in Gemini is trine Jupiter until October 8^th. This is a great time to get those projects started. Your energies are moving quickly, and it can be hard to focus on one project. You may start a couple of projects and not complete them. This is a mental sign that works fast. This is a lucky aspect of working with other people.

Mars square Neptune all month. This aspect can be very discouraging particularly if either planet is on the angles in your chart. This aspect can lead to people talking behind your back instead of being upfront. This can also be a problem if you are sensitive to drugs, and depletion of the body. Clarity is often needed during this transit. However, it is excellent for Qigong, Tai chi, and yoga to bring the mind into the body.
