Full SuperMoon in Taurus 2025

On November 5th at 5:19 AM PDT we have a SuperMoon, the closest one of the year! The Sun is at 13 degrees Scorpio 23 minutes, and the Full Moon is at 13 degrees Taurus 23 minutes. If you look to the east you will see a HUGE Moon rise.

When we have a Full Moon we look back to when the Moon was new and what we had in mind at that time. It was new on April 27th of this year, when Spring was solid and wildflowers and bulbs were blooming. At that time, home and its comforts were the focus, after enduring winter. And looking forward to Summer and everything it brings was the target. With Venus ruling the Moon, emotional security and stability are paramount. Also important is beautification, whether it’s inside or outside. What was your goal at this time?

Taurus and Scorpio are fixed signs, opposite each other in the zodiac. This axis represents the concept of ownership, value, and control. It explores the stressors between giving and receiving, creation and destruction, and the desire for security versus transformation. Taurus, ruled by Venus, (focused on possession and stability) and Scorpio, ruled by Mars and Pluto, (focused on death, rebirth, and transformation) both deal with values. The interplay between these signs represents the cycle of life, from the earthiness of Taurus to the intensity of Scorpio, and can manifest as powerful, entrenched themes in a person's life.

In this reading these luminaries have no other aspects from other planets. But, there is an interesting interplay between Mars, Jupiter, Uranus and Pluto called the “Mystic Rectangle” aspect. This configuration of planets contains two oppositions, two trines, and two sextiles; all between these four planets! It is a closed aspect pattern, meaning it is unaffected by other aspects in the reading. This energy brings a time of opportunity, challenge, and spiritual guidance.

First the oppositions. Mars at 0 degrees Sagittarius is opposite Uranus at 0 degrees Gemini. Exactly. When Mars is in this sign, you aim high and are not content simply with a quiet, secure existence. You like to stretch your limits, to see how far you can go, and to take risks. But when it opposes Uranus in Gemini you may have an explosive temper when your will is blocked. You have a superabundance of energy and need much personal freedom to do things in your own style and at your own pace. Jupiter at 25 degrees Cancer is opposite Pluto at 1 degree Aquarius. Jupiter expands and exaggerates the sign, making you want to “people please” and take care of everyone's feelings. But when it opposes Pluto in Aquarius, the sentimentality and emotional take is lost to a more objective take on transforming what limits you. The issues are all about opposite natures, beliefs and observations of how life works. The tensions they bring are here to transform us.

Now the trines to the rescue, pointing the way to wisdom, creativity, and soulful navigation. Mars in Sagittarius is trine Jupiter in Cancer. You can enjoy healthy competition and have a rather playful, good-humored attitude toward it. You may compete with yourself to see how far you can go or how much you can accomplish. You will like to keep stretching your limits under this influence. Uranus in Gemini is trine Pluto in Aquarius. Uranus in Gemini brings progressive thinking and curiosity, while Pluto in Aquarius has a strong emotional need to cooperate and unite together with others.

Last but not least the sextiles. Mars is sextile Pluto, giving us a strong sense of a mission, knowing instinctively that to achieve anything great, one must eliminate unneeded activities, and give oneself wholly to the goal one wishes to accomplish. And, Jupiter is sextile Uranus, potentially bringing breakthroughs, inventive energies, and radical ideas.

The challenges brought forth from this Mystic Rectangle via the oppositions are moderated by the trines and sextiles of the planets. We have a grand opportunity on this Super Full Moon. Look to yourself and how powerful you feel, or don’t feel. Why is that? Dig deep. What do you fear? Dream the bigger dream, and see where you can fit within it. Take a chance, do something different and step forward. Use all of these energies to climb higher than before, and celebrate your efforts! Life is all about the process, so hang in there and enjoy the ride:)
