Full Moon in Libra: Relating with Venus

 




Full Moon in Libra: Relating with Venus

Moon opposite Sun- 3/28/21 @ 1:48pm CDT

 

The Wind Moon is full and near her perigee, meaning she is closer to our Earth.  She is bright and she has a powerful pull.  In Libra, the lunar mood is relational.  Sun and Moon are illuminating the Aries-Libra axis of how one individual relates to another.  Feelings about justice, fairness, and equality are in full light.  We are called to relate with each other and to do some harmonic maintenance in our relationships.


This Full Moon is reflecting the Venusian mood of Cardinal Air.  When fully illuminated in this air sign, Moon communicates the feelings of Venus (currently in Aries) through us.  Just two days ago, Venus was in her Exterior Conjunction with our Aries Sun, and the Libra Full Moon is now giving her voice through the opposition.  She is still in the invisible realms behind Sun, and she is still feeling the intensity of her enduring transformation from Morning to Evening Star.  There are some strong feelings that brought her through her descent from our sky and into the depths to surrender her previous life, and Moon asks us to consider what it feels like to transform the heart.

That Morning Star Venus life was birthed in Gemini last summer during her Interior (Retrograde) Conjunction with Sun.  She was born into the excess of information flying about in a peak of pandemic panic, as well as the heightened cries for justice from police brutality protests in the U.S.  What was being communicated was crucial, and both had an underlying message of ‘listen to what is being denied the air to express.’

That July, Gemini Venus reached the height of her Morning Star brilliance and showed us how to care about what we are communicating.  Following that peak, she began her slow descent in our sky…unpacking with us all the information she had accumulated in the mercurial air of Gemini.

Fast forward to today, 9 months later, and Venus is in the liminal stages of another rebirth…this time from young queen to elder queen status.  As she moves forward, and eventually reclaims herself through ascension in our sky…she gains a great deal of wisdom on the matters initiated last summer.  Now in Aries, she will carry that pioneering spirit into her home sign of Taurus for her heliacal rise as Evening Star by early May.  ‘Showing up’ in her Taurus way is the heart’s reclaiming of what is truly of value on Earth.

This transformation is aided by Chiron, met by Sun and Venus in the 9th degree of Aries at this Full Moon.  This Aries stellium joins together the activating forces of an exalted Sun, the Cosmic Shaman, and the Shamanic Initiation of Venus.  Chiron in the middle of this shows us the healing path as our collective identity transforms.  Chiron’s wise guidance is ‘follow your heart to heal the identity wounds of Humanity within you’. 

 

Astrological Aspect Patterns at this Full Moon


The Kite:  Sun-Chiron-Venus anchor, Grand Trine of Moon, Mars-North Node, and Saturn (Aries, Libra, Gemini, Aquarius)

The harmonious flow of air between Moon, Mars at Moon’s North Node, and Saturn can inspire some ease in communication…especially if we’re actively listening as much as we’re thinking and talking.  The fiery Aries stellium of Sun-Chiron-Venus provides an anchor point to keep this kite from floating away in the wind.  So if we keep a grasp of these creative ideas available to us (Air Grand Trine) from the standpoint of our Aries transformation, we can make good use of our mental flow.

 

The Finger of Gaia Kite:  Moon Apex, Sun-Chiron-Venus anchor, Uranus sextile Pallas base (Libra, Aries, Taurus, Pisces)

Libra Moon is being pointed to by Gaia as the apex of what we must integrate from the opportunity Uranus and Pallas offer us at this time.  Their sextile is a subtle but fortunate offering to revolutionize our strategies moving forward.  They ask us to consider a new and unconventional approach to how we are relating with this Libra Moon energy.  Moon is in quincunx (150 degrees) with both, which makes this integration somewhat uncomfortable but beneficial for our growth.  Again, the Aries Stellium provides an anchor point so that Moon in Libra can better express this subtle opportunity.  Sun-Chiron-Venus reminds us that, through the discomfort, we can heal.

The Magi:  Moon, Saturn, Uranus (Libra, Aquarius, Taurus)

While Libra Moon is in a harmonious trine to Aquarius Saturn and an uncomfortable quincunx with Uranus…Saturn and Uranus are interacting in a dynamic 90 degree square.  This particular fixed square holds the underlying theme of 2021, as it endures throughout the year with 3 exactions.  It is meant to bring some solidity and substance to the changes we’re making this year…but it isn’t easy.  Together with Libra Moon in this triangle (often called a Magi pattern), the Saturn-Uranus necessities of this year are revisited in this Full Moon.  So even though there are some subtle nudges toward harmony and integration at this time, we are also being pressed by the more crucial changes our society must enact.  There is magic in such a combination, as without the dynamics of a square…we might not even pick up on the benefits of the subtler vibrations on the wind.
