Moon Stuff:
Hi friends, welcome to hell. In a fun way! This Full Moon in Aries is squaring Mars, ruler of Aries. Chani uses the word “inflammation” for this astrology. If you, like me, have an Aries Moon that aspects Mars in any way, you know this inflammation all too well. It’s feeling EVERYTHING right at once, RIGHT AWAY. It’s a match that burns bright and then burns out. That is the key to Aries. It’s the first, it’s the pioneer, it’s the initial spark. It’s brash and it’s loud BUT it does not last for very long. This week, use the spark! That explosion of energy can sometimes irritate, if you are not use to the feeling. Well friend, let me give you some tips.
Crash out.
I’m kidding. I do suggest to lean into the feeling of what is annoying you right now. What is really pissing you off? Use that to propel your life in a POSITIVE way. Look at your chart and find where Aries is and see if that area has any inflammation this week. (Your Cancer house might be affected as well because that is where Mars is right now). Confront it head on and open the wound a bit. It is important to be honest and vulnerable even if it’s scary. It actually may be very scary at first but on the other side incredibly healing. This moon is connecting to the new moon at the beginning of April this year. Have you been holding in a scream since then? Let it out. It is ok to be the scream and it is ok to be the alarm. Sometimes you being honest about your anger and irritation influences others around you to be honest too. Your anger is valid. You are right! Also consider who’s screams have you been ignoring? Who’s honesty has rubbed you the wrong way? Listen to the irritation but don’t lash out. Be the warrior with a plan. Don’t be an aimless aggressor. It’s important to clock this inflammation in others around you. It can be easy to argue just to argue this week but have the honest conversations with care. Or fuck it, some people do not deserve your care. Also, keep in mind that Pluto is now direct in Capricorn at 29° for the last time ever in our lifetimes. Pay attention to the Capricorn part of your chart and what lessons are ending there, because well, that’s it, that’s all you get this time friend. As always, get some rest and drink some COLD water. Aries rules the head so, splash some cold water on your face, massage the center of your forehead or your scalp, move your body…all things I do regularly to calm the loudness of Mars in my chart. Do not suppress the anger in you, learn how to use it. Be brave and be direct. I got you. See you next time!
