Full Moon arrives in Aries: here's what it means for each zodiac sign

On 29 September, let us prepare to let go of what we no longer need

Full Moon arrives in Aries: here's what it means for each zodiac sign On 29 September, let us prepare to let go of what we no longer need

Every month the moon completes its journey around the earth, taking about 28 days to do so. Each cycle has four lunar phases, each with its own unique energy, but the most powerful and transformative moments coincide with the new moon and the full moon. On Friday 29 September, it's best to look up, as the Full Moon in Aries will light up the sky and give us the last Supermoon of the year. This celestial event, also known as the "Harvest Moon," gives us one last opportunity to improve our manifestations before the New Year.

What is meant by Supermoon and Harvest Moon?

Corn Moon, Full Grain Moon or Harvest Moon are just some of the names given by the ancients to the full moon that occurs closer to the autumnal equinox (on 23 September) and heralds the agricultural harvest season before the onset of winter. The full moon on 29 September will also be a supermoon. This means that it will be at perigee, the point in its orbit closest to Earth. Therefore, it will appear visually larger and brighter than usual.

When it will be visible

The Harvest Moon will be visible at 10:57 a.m. on September 29, 2023, but it won't be at its best due to the sun's radiation. To enjoy the spectacle to the fullest, you'll need to keep your eyes on the sky on the night of September 28-29. And don't be surprised if it appears orange; the warm colour is a gift of the sun's position at this time of year.

What is the spiritual significance of the Full Moon in Aries?

Full moons are cycles of reflection, liberation and rebirth. They mark the culmination of the lunar cycle and are known to evoke intense emotions. They occur when the Sun and Moon are in opposite signs of the zodiac, which enhances the spiritual effects of the Moon and makes its effects more noticeable. Depending on the zodiac sign, the energy of the full moon will be expressed differently. The Harvest Moon falls in Aries, the first sign of the zodiac, and brings with it an energy of rebirth, transformation and action that invites us all to go deep, become who we really are and believe in our potential. Especially the cardinal signs (Aries, Cancer, Libra, Capricorn) where this Full Moon will have the most direct impact. So it's time to face difficult conversations and free ourselves from what doesn't serve us.

The effects of the September 2023 Full Moon in Aries on each zodiac sign:

ARIES

Strength and courage, baby! This moon takes you 100% and invites change.

TAURUS

Venus is no longer inauspicious and you'll be able to understand your feelings better. (We hope so, because it's been a mess lately!).

GEMINI

Think about who is really your friend and who is just an acquaintance. (Let's leave the "situational relationship" aside for now).

CANCER

The full moon will be exhausting, but you'll regain your comfort zone a bit.

LEO

Sometimes it happens that we "make " the thoughts of others (friends, relatives, colleagues) "our own". Listen to the inner voice inside you and let it guide you.

VIRGO

You tend to be on guard 24 hours a day (you are like a Doberman). Lower your defences and bring out courage and generosity in love.

LIBRA

Understand and communicate with those with whom you just want to "Netflix and Chill" Nurture the relationships you already have without getting caught up in the crazy vibes of the changing seasons.

SCORPIO

So much work and so little fun is not good for you. The moon invites you to "Me Time"

CAPRICORN

Enough of negative and toxic thoughts. A full moon ritual is to write your problems on a paper and burn it. Make sure you do it safely! We don't want to call the fire brigade (or maybe we do).

AQUARIUS

If you don't deal critically with others, why do you do it with yourself? The Moon invites you to appreciate yourself. "TVB" just say it to yourself*!

PISCES

Yesterday's price is not today's price (but that doesn't mean you have to go shopping right away). You have a strange and urgent need to do, but it's not the right time to act.
