Now, Libra season is giving you a glimpse into how these changes will reward and enrich your life.

Full Moon in Aries

September's full moon is called the Harvest Moon, and it reaches its peak on September 29, 2023, at 5:58 a.m. ET. In astrology, a full moon occurs when the sun and moon are in opposing zodiac signs. Full moons are cycles of reflection, release, and rebirth. When the luminary that rules the ego (sun) is at odds with your emotional center (moon), you're bound to feel impassioned. This month, the full moon occurs in the sign of Aries, the driven fire sign with a zest for life. You're ending a cycle where you settled for less than you deserved. And you’re finding new ways to balance responsibility and pleasure.
