The Full Moon in Aries, 2022 Dares You To Be The First To Say How You Really Feel
On October 9, 2022, the full moon in Aries will usher in dramatic endings and healing conclusions that will encourage you to put your wounded ego aside to make peace with others. This full moon is an opportunity to find common ground with people you haven’t gotten on well with and to clear the air without hard feelings lingering beneath the surface. Brace yourself for reactive outbursts as you (or others) might need to get something off your chest before you can let things go. The only way to welcome peace in your life is to let go of your pain.
Release the past to find peace in the present
The full moon in Aries — the 1st sign of the zodiac — will be reactive, passionate, and emotional. Asteroid Chiron — signifying your hidden inner wounds — will be retrograde when it merges with the full moon, boosting your desire to overcome your insecurities and deep-rooted fears. You may feel more courageous during this full moon, though you'll have to learn how to resist acting on your emotional instincts so you can make peace with others. Consider how your inner feelings are preventing you from moving on. Perhaps you still haven’t forgiven someone for what they did or said in the past, or maybe you’re finding it hard to believe someone wants to give you a second chance because you’re so used to people giving up on you.
Lower your guards
The Sun (which will oppose the Moon as it always does during a full moon) will reside in Libra — the diplomatic 7th sign of the zodiac. Venus will join forces with the Sun bringing powerful and positive energy as it is the ruling planet of Libra and one of the luckiest planets in the sky. Your desire for connection, cooperation, and balance will overpower your fears and anxiety. But try not to take things too personally, see yourself as a victim, or make excuses for your behavior — your loved ones still care about you even when they call out your actions. Observe why you feel attacked when someone expresses themselves or calls out your behavior, and remember: shying away from confrontation or going into conversations with your guard up is counterproductive to protecting your peace.
You don’t need to prove a point
Saturn retrograde will form a sweet union with the full moon, filling you with a deeper sense of duty to take action and make things right with people. It takes maturity to initiate difficult conversations and steer them toward solutions without needing to be right or to prove a point. Be honest and direct with your feelings and avoid prolonged confrontations by managing your tonality and emotional expression. Moments like these will strengthen your relationships and teach you how to express yourself in tense situations.
