The October 2021 full moon falls in the sign of Aries. The Aries archetype is known for its bold – often rash – action, for going where angels fear to tread. As the first sign of the zodiac, it represents the active core of our spiritual journey on earth, and teaches us to act in accordance with our ideals.
There’s an assertive quality to the energy of this full moon, which can encourage you to take bold, affirmative action. It can illuminate the areas of your life where you have been leading with fear, and help you to confront + transmute it. You could have some sudden insights and a-ha moments in the run-up to and around this full moon.
If you’ve been particularly busy, this lunation also offers you a chance to sink into some much needed rest. But there is a bit of a push-pull energy to this moon, with the desire for rest in direct opposition to the desire to keep pushing on. Carving out some time for soul work — meditation, art, or any activity that brings you to a flow state — can help you more easily navigate through these energies.
To throw some more light on the October full moon astrology, let’s take a look at the astro-tarot influences of this lunation. The Aries full moon falls in decan 3, which is represented by the Four of Wands. This is to be interpreted in conjunction with The Emperor, which is associated with Aries.
