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:)

New Moon in Libra 2025

On October 21st at 5:25 AM PDT the Sun and Moon share the same degree; 28 degrees Libra 22 minutes. There are many fortunate aspects to these luminaries and some challenging ones.

Libra is a Cardinal Air Sign. It begins Autumn and is a sign of leadership. It marks a new beginning. The Air quality brings intelligence and mental acuity. In the zodiac it rules the 7th house of marriage, one-to-one relationships, counselors, partnerships, legal matters and open enemies. Now is the time to consider what we want to create with these energies. Look at your relationships; what would fill your heart with joy that you can do to improve these? How can you bring more harmony into your life, as Libra is the sign of balance?

Libra is ruled by the planet Venus, and beauty is very important to this sign. While considering what you wish to improve upon, look at yourself. How can you make yourself, inside and out, more beautiful? Add color, scent, all around you.

The first planet to aspect these luminaries is a square from Jupiter in Cancer. Jupiter exaggerates energies, enlarges them, and here we can take on more responsibility than we can shoulder, believing we can manage. Restlessness and discontent with everyday responsibilities and limitations in life can be troublesome now. Willing to overlook others' faults, sometimes one can overdo their charitableness under this influence. Remember the keyword now is BALANCE.

There is an aspect between these luminaries and Saturn, Uranus and Neptune called a “yod”. It is interpreted to mean the “finger of God” or the “finger of fate”. Saturn at 26 degrees Pisces traveling with Neptune at 0 degrees Aries (4 degrees separate these conjoined planets) quincunx the Sun and Moon. Also, Uranus at 0 degrees Gemini is quincunx the Sun and Moon. This creates an aspect that resembles a long triangle, and the point is the destination for a karmic mission. The finger of fate points to Libra; justice, harmony and new beginnings. We are at a pivotal time in our history, and this aspect seeks to enlighten us to the fact that we are all here together to live our beautiful dream of peace, harmony and love.

The last aspect to the Sun and Moon is Pluto at 1 degree Aquarius. This can bring an intensity of feelings that can make one willful, even fanatical about a belief, or suspicious of others motives and desires. There are powerful magnetic ties between yourself and those you care about, and you could become emotionally obsessed by another person. As always, take the high road, simmer down and observe your emotions, and honor Pluto with deep changes within yourself. It is meant to stir up what feels limiting in order to transform it. So do your part with an honest appraisal.

While Neptune continues its retrograde through Pisces, we are in the final stretch to observe what lies hidden beneath the surface that still triggers us. Go deep, we have until January 22nd, 2026 to continue to purge and reclaim our power before Neptune goes into the sign of Aries.

Full SuperMoon in Aries 2025

On October 6th at 8:47 PM PDT we have the first of three SuperMoons! It will appear brighter and larger than usual, traveling in its closest orbit of our Earth. We will be feeling the amplification of this lunation cycle, being driven to take action, gain clarity, and release what no longer serves us.

Aries is a Cardinal Fire sign, the first sign of our zodiac. The Vernal Equinox on March 20th of this year was a moment to begin anew, and make our dreams come true. Then on March 29th the Moon was New in Aries, coinciding with a partial Solar Eclipse. This powerful spark ignited us to act on our convictions and exert our power. Now the Moon is full in Aries, and we can see the results of these aspirations. Aries is a leader with fiery intent. Ruled by Mars, the god of war, this energy pushes us to take action and be courageous. Emotions run hot with this sign if their arrow doesn’t meet their target. In hindsight, did you take action on what you need to do for yourself, or did you miss the bullseye?

This SuperMoon is here to remind us all how powerful we are, especially when we join forces with others. The Sun in Libra is stationed opposite the Full Moon, and it has other plans for us. It’s teaching us to stay balanced, to think of others as well as ourselves. To see both sides of a disagreement and settle it fairly and justly. Where the SuperMoon may be raising the hair on the back of your neck with frustration and misunderstandings, take a step back and harmonize. Take both sides into consideration; your well being and the well being of others. Sometimes we just cannot do it alone and teaming up with others to accomplish goals can be the road less traveled, but one worth taking. Time to develop patience:)

The Sun and Moon have no aspects to them, so I will speak of the other planets involved in this moment. Mercury is stationed at 0 degrees Scorpio, giving us all good mental concentration and the ability to become completely immersed in our work. It is square Pluto in Aquarius at 1 degree, drawing our attention to what lies beneath the “truth” we are seeking while being somewhat suspicious of what we hear. Great time to investigate what may need probing to come to full clarity.

Jupiter at 23 degrees Cancer trines Saturn in its final transit in Pisces at 27 degrees. This beneficial aspect between these two planets brings us a good balance between idealism, optimism, and vision for the future on the one hand, and a realistic sense of what can actually be achieved on the other hand. Your judgment and business senses are quite good under this influence. You will posses patience and the ability to accept limitations and frustration on the way to your goals.

The outer planets; Saturn, Uranus, Neptune and Pluto are all receiving positive aspects from each other, conjunctions, sextiles and trines. Under these conditions, with these planets (all but Saturn) all in the early degrees of their new transits, there is hope for us all! We are being elevated to Air and Fire signs for our future selves to be influenced by. We have traversed many years of Earth and Water planetary transits, more passive and accommodating. Well, not any more! It’s time to jump on a comet and fly ahead, no time to lose.

Consider who you are, maybe who you wished to be before experiencing the hard times we have endured. Shoot for that again, or something even more worthy of your time and energy. And, balance it with love, creativity and nature, and watch your life improve.
