Astrologically around the full moon of October 7th, 2025

This full moon rises as the Sun sets, which in earlier times meant that people could work longer in the fields. Due to the red light of the setting sun, dust particles in the blue sky, and the moon’s position near the horizon, its color becomes a deep orange-yellow. The moon is also very close to the Earth and can therefore appear even larger.
It is a time to be grateful for the Earth: the growth she enables, the abundance, all her gifts and her ability to support us. The Earth is a living being, our planet, and like any maternal archetype, the balance between giving and receiving is important for her too. She will also need rest soon to recharge. What can you (give back) to her? What action, intention, energy, or practical deed can you offer to give something in return and to do good? Take a moment to reflect or feel into what you are grateful for right now. What have you achieved? What is there to celebrate? What will you do differently, and what will you carry forward into the next cycle? When something is at its peak, a turning point is near. All your possibilities lie hidden within your inner world (your experiences, talents, all that you have learned and built). Treasure them share them.

With the Full Moon in Aries, you may feel an extra surge of fiery energy on all levels: energy, drive, anger, passion… Try to be conscious of where you are directing your energy or what you are setting in motion – and whether you really want that. Before you know it, you’ve hit the gas and are speeding ahead. Let it be for something you consciously choose. That may require a moment of pause (which is hard for Aries). What do you want to focus your attention on?
What do you want to spend your time on? Make conscious choices before impulsively jumping into something new.

Mercury is in a disharmonious aspect to Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto. This may cause confusion in yourself or others, poor decision-making, or tactlessness (with Uranus); escaping into fantasies or difficulty distinguishing truth from falsehood (with Neptune); verbal power struggles, intolerance, or clinging to a delusion (with Pluto).
On the other hand, Venus and the Black Moon complement each other and allow you to deeply feel what truly matters to you, here and now. It may also make you realize where the balance in a relationship is off: where you give and the other only takes. Feel what is good for your heart and soul; you truly do know deep inside what is right (or not) for you in these days!
