The Libra Full Moon: Finding Balance Between Me and We

The upcoming Libra Full Moon casts a spotlight on the delicate dance between our individual desires and the needs of our relationships. It's a time of reckoning, a moment to assess the scales of our connections and see if they are balanced. This lunar event ushers in a period of introspection. We're called upon to ask ourselves: Are we truly fulfilled by the bonds we've built? Are our needs being met in a way that fosters mutual growth and happiness? This isn't about selfishness, but about self-awareness. A healthy relationship allows space for both individual journeys and a shared path.

If the scales are tipped unevenly, the Libra Full Moon empowers us to take action. For some, this might involve setting healthy boundaries. Perhaps we've been people-pleasers, neglecting our own needs to maintain harmony. This lunation encourages us to prioritize self-care, saying no when necessary, and expressing our desires openly. However, the answer doesn't always lie in separation. The energy of Libra is also about compromise and collaboration. Can we find a way to adjust the dynamic, working together to create a more fulfilling connection? Open communication and a willingness to meet each other halfway are key.

Ultimately, the Libra Full Moon encourages us to cultivate authentic connections. We're drawn towards relationships built on genuine respect, empathy, and mutual support. This might involve letting go of superficial bonds that no longer serve us and nurturing the ones that bring out our best selves. It's also a time to celebrate healthy partnerships, those beautiful collaborations where "me" and "we" exist in perfect harmony.

By embracing introspection, setting boundaries, and prioritizing healthy connections, we can leverage the energy of the Libra Full Moon to create a life filled with balanced and fulfilling relationships.

Full Moon in the 12th House

When the radiant fullness of the Moon lands in the mysterious 12th house, it stirs the potent energies of our subconscious. This is a powerful transit, a time for deep introspection and emotional processing that can feel both introspective and transformative.

• Inner Reflection Takes Center Stage: The 12th house is associated with dreams, intuition, and the hidden aspects of ourselves. Under this Full Moon, a veil is lifted, allowing us to confront buried emotions, past hurts, and limiting beliefs. It's a time for shadow work, for gently confronting the parts of ourselves we may have kept hidden. Journaling, meditation, or dream analysis can be powerful tools during this introspective period.
• Letting Go and Releasing: The 12th house also governs endings and letting go. This Full Moon might stir feelings of closure or a sense of needing to release something that no longer serves us. It could be a toxic relationship, a negative habit, or even a limiting self-belief. By acknowledging and releasing these burdens, we create space for new beginnings and emotional growth.
• Compassion and Forgiveness: The emotional intensity of this transit can also bring a surge of empathy and compassion. We may feel a heightened sensitivity to the emotions of others, or a renewed desire to forgive past hurts, both for ourselves and for others. This can be a powerful time for healing and reconciliation.
• Seeking Solitude and Self-Care: The energy of the 12th house is introspective and can be draining. During this Full Moon, it's important to listen to your intuition and prioritize rest and relaxation. Seek solitude in nature, indulge in a creative outlet, or simply take a quiet evening for yourself. Self-care is essential for navigating the emotional depths stirred by this transit.
• Harnessing the Power of Intuition:While logic may take a backseat under this Full Moon, our intuition is amplified. Pay attention to your dreams, gut feelings, and sudden insights. They may hold valuable messages or nudges in the right direction.

The Full Moon in the 12th house is a potent time for emotional release, self-discovery, and spiritual growth. By embracing introspection, self-care, and the wisdom of our intuition, we can emerge from this transit feeling lighter, more whole, and ready to embrace new beginnings.

Summary 

A Libra Full Moon usually focuses on relationships, but this one lands in the introspective 12th house. This Full Moon encourages us to look inward and examine how subconscious thoughts and past experiences might be affecting our connections with others. By understanding these hidden influences, we can achieve inner peace and build stronger, more balanced relationships. The 12th house also promotes intuition and creativity, making this a good time for self-reflection and artistic expression.

Full Moon in Libra 2020

Full Moon in Libra 

4/7/2020  7:34 PM (Pacific) 

Natural Chart / Whole Houses 

 The Sun / Moon Opposition

A Full Moon occurs when the Sun and the Moon are exactly 180° apart forming an opposition. As you can see from the chart above the Sun is at 18­° Aries and the Moon is at 18° Libra making this a Full Moon. An opposition is a type of aspect in which the energy or urge of one planet is at odds with the energy or urge of another planet. You feel like someone is doing something to you and you feel powerless to do anything about it. 

Me vs. We 

When the Sun in Aries makes an opposition to the Moon in Libra our urge to assert ourselves, to be aggressive, pioneering, and adventurous is at odds with our urge to be more considerate of others, to exercise diplomacy, and to keep the peace. 

With the outbreak of the corona virus, this is a pattern that we have seen in the last few weeks of people putting their personal needs head of the needs of others. This behavior has played out in the form of hoarded resources to the point that others have to go without, or people not following recommended guidelines (such as social distancing) which results in putting themselves and others at risk of infection. The "me people" and the "we people" may each feel like the other is engaging in behavior that designed to control or inhibit them in some way and so they react out of a sense of powerlessness and so they move to reclaim that power. 

Transit Aspects 

There's a lot going on in this chart but I want to focus in on a few things. They are:

• Jupiter Conjunct Pluto 
• Moon Opposite Jupiter 
• Moon Opposite MC 

Change is here to stay with us and we are going to have to adapt to the new rules of society or get left behind. It's hard to access the qualities of optimism, hope, and a spirit of cheerfulness now with all this change going on in the world. It's easy to succumb to depression and fear and it shows prompting us to spend more time alone or with close family and friends.  

The Full Libra Moon 

Whereas a New Moon brings new opportunities and new beginnings, a Full Moon brings completion and endings. With the Full Moon transiting the area of our charts that rules over marriage, agreements, and partnerships the urge to assess our relationships becomes a priority. We must decide if we are getting what we need out of our relationships, but more importantly are we giving our partners what they need as well.  If a compromise, or balance, cannot be achieved then it may be time to end the relationship to make room for something better. If you are single, the Full Moon in Libra can possibly bring new opportunity to make a connection with someone else and enjoy greater intimacy. 

How to Work with Full Moon in Libra Energy

•  practice more compromise and diplomacy 
•  surprise your partner with a special "date night". 
•  socialize with friends, have a party. 
•  indulge in a sensuous meal (but don't over do it!) 
•  see a play, concert, or show 
•  get in touch with your inner artist by exploring music, dance, writing, or art as a hobby. 
•  air out the house; redecorate your home (at least declutter or re-arrange furniture) 
•  buy a new outfit or get a makeover (even if it's just a blow-out at the hair salon) 
•  spending time outside enjoying the sun and a glass of wine or simply gardening. 

Of course some of these activities may not be possible now with quaratines, self-isolation, and social distances initiatives in place but Libra is all about compromise so I am sure you'll find a way to satisfy the Full Libra Moon! 

Personal Aspects 

Let us suppose that you have Uranus in 21° Libra. This would mean that the Full Moon is applying a conjunction to your Natal Uranus. Let us break it down. 

Transit Moon + conjunct +  Natal Uranus 

I Feel + blends with +  I Rebel

When the full moon makes a conjunction with Natal Uranus you feel more spontaneous and unpredictable. You resist any restraints that may be put on you. New and unexpected things happen to you.
