The name of Pink Full Moon comes to us from Native Americans
via The Farmer’s Almanac; it is representative of the color of flowers of the
springtime. The irony is that the Pink Moon isn’t pink at all and unlike some
of eclipses, it isn’t any color at. Beginning 2:08am EDT April 11 and 11:08pm PDT
April 10 respectively, the Moon will wax full in the sign of Libra.
Libra, whose ruling planet is Venus, Is a sign that seeks
personal understand and self enlightenment through interactions with others. Diplomats
of the Zodiac, it is an air sign devoted to compatibility and companionship. At its best, Libra is observant, adaptive
and attentive. At their worst, Libra
can be self-indulgent, superficial and indecisive.
The Moon is the
planet responsible for needs. Whether you require nurturing, feeding and
emotional security (things which the moon governs), the Moon represents how you
pursue, receive and maintain those needs. The full Moon’s increases our demands
for those needs, urging us to acquire them in the most direct way.
The Libra Full
Moon focuses upon matters related to the Moon but in a way that is balanced and
detached. As it is an airy moon or a moon influenced by an air sign, it is can
be at odds with the often watery, emotional Moon. So, if in the next three days you might find
yourself balancing concerns yourself and loved ones. Do you need to feed
yourself or others? Do you need more emotional contact with others or less? Are there actions that will make you and your
loved ones feel better? These are issues
which may come up at this time.
Full moons are
good times for initiating or launching of projects. The waxing energy tends to
promote and nurture such activities. It also provides numerous ways to achieve
likely success. At this time, you’ll be directed to that which you care about
most and ask to eliminate that which does not serve you. The current Mercury Retrograde in Taurus and the
squaring aspect of Pluto in Capricorn may, at this time, make any new project
somewhat challenging at this time, so follow through on previous efforts wherever
possible.
Libra, the moon may ask that you state your needs most directly.
While it may not be the most comfortable thing, Pluto's influence might just compel
you to do so. Operating with honesty and genuineness may prove both cathartic
and refreshing to you and those you love.
Aries, this is a time to consider the needs your of partners
and significant others. What are they saying? What might they have to say? Listening
closely to your intimates may be the most important thing you can do at this
time. In keeping with the current Retrograde wherever possible, repair and
restore connections with those you are closest to.
Cancer and Capricorn, You may be asked to endeavor to resolve some
matter will benefit you and loved ones. Engaging in the matter may invite
difficulty, but the time you devote to the challenge may offer great benefits
for some long standing need related to you and those you most care about most.
The flowering of the Pink Moon should offer balance and
fulfillment of the requirement for you
and your loved ones. Let the Libra Full moon show you the balance of give and
take.
