First Quarter Moon, Full Moon in Aries, Worthiness
The Weekly Reset Vol.1 No.4 10-03-2022 | October Issue
The monthly energy curated playlist Lunation FM (formerly known as Moon Tunes) is updated and attuned to Libra season. Listen here.
Moon’s First Quarter in Capricorn squaring Jupiter, Venus, and the Sun can have us feeling like we bit off more than we can chew but maybe taking your time, keeping at it, and realizing your deep desires are worth seeing things through. It can seem like the actions we’ve taken towards whatever intended just aren’t making the impact we hoped they would, but this is only the quarter mark to the next lunation. We’re halfway to the full moon. There’s still much to tend to, do more for, and less of. You will find your groove if you keep at this cyclic dance.
Moon is void on the evening of October 3rd 8:58 PM ET through the early morning Tuesday 6:20 AM ET where the Moon continues its course through Aquarius. Plan your week accordingly and go to sleep. Vesta turns Direct Wednesday, October 5th 2:12 PM ET, rekindling ways we show up for those in our community and networks, sparking new methods of choice around coming together, and acting on conviction of what that means to us and what is collectively needed. Moon goes void of course shortly after at 6:45 PM ET giving us time to contemplate this resurrection of sacred consciousness.
Ceres makes a trine to Icarus in the witching hour bringing a nurturing touch to whatever house of Capricorn needs care and guidance in your chart. The Moon moves into Pisces Thursday morning at 8:46 AM ET about an hour before the Sun in Libra squares Pallas in Cancer bringing to head any tension around your intuition and feelings for security and comfort and/or caring for loved ones needs versus what others think you should do about it.
Venus day begins with Mercury’s trine to Pluto and ends its trine to Uranus as Mercury makes way back to the sign of Libra and the Moon wades in Piscean depths. Sun opposes Chiron on its way to the budding Full Moon in Aries this weekend and begins a trine to Mars in Gemini, meanwhile, Venus remains conjunct the Sun in Libra asking what’s in your bag as she starts her own trine to Saturn Friday evening going exact on October 14th. I think we all get a little reprieve from worrying about what others think about things maybe only we notice about ourselves. Lean into it and celebrate what makes you unique. (UNIQUE!)
Hygeia moves into Sagittarius and your algorithm may become entranced by science backed research around fitness, nutrition, and #CleanTok + health related themes compared to the dumpster fire of misinformation and diet culture harm the mid 2000s-2010s endured. Reports on the effects of fitness and/or cleanliness on the mind/body as well as the environment will come back into circulation. While it’s inevitable that some of that could slip through the cracks, we enter a period of time where the mind-body connection is encouraged from an informed lens of true health/strength encouraged movement and choices.
Moon goes void in Pisces Saturday morning briefly from 7:10 AM ET to 11:56 AM ET as it dries off in Aries ahead of the Full Moon on Sunday, October 9th 4:56 PM ET. Pluto retrograde also turns Direct Saturday afternoon.
The Full Moon in Aries can’t come to illumination without a kiss to Chiron tending wounds around the self, identity, and worthiness. We’re bound to wince at the dirt and debris in need of cleansing, but it brings a moment to celebrate how far you’ve come this year. A literal harvest of your work, wins, lessons and losses and what you’ve done with those efforts since the astrological new year of spring otherwise known as Aries season or Spring Equinox in the northern hemisphere. You’re worth putting the effort into and engaging in that silly little cyclic dance of life. I personally think the full moon energy can be summed up in this lyric from Paramore’s “Last Hope”
It's just a spark but it's enough to keep me going
And when it's dark out and no one's around it keeps glowing
It's just a spark but it's enough to keep me going
And when it's dark out and no one's around it keeps glowingAnd the salt in my wounds isn't burning anymore than it used to
It's not that I don't feel the pain it's just I'm not afraid of hurting anymore
And the blood of these veins isn't pumping any less than it ever has
And that's the hope I have the only thing I know that's keeping me alive
Your worthiness is in being, not being worthy.
I wish you a happy illumination and the best of healing.
