Saturday, October 31 will bring us The Hunter Moon, Full
Moon in the sign of Taurus. The Hunter Moon derives its name from the fact that
hunters once used the bright light of the fall Full Moon to allow them to track
prey at night. The Hunter Moon is always the first full Moon after the Harvest
Moon, the closest full moon to the autumnal equinox. This Hunter Moon is special
in a variety of ways. First, it will be visible across the entirety of the
United States in all the time Zones. This event that won’t happen again until
2039. Second, it is a blue Moon. Blue Moons are the second Full Moon to occur
in a calendar Month. Lastly, this is a "micro-moon" or
"minimoon," because it will occur when the moon is close to its
farthest point from Earth in its elliptical orbit. Also, please bear in mind that it is still a Mercury
Retrograde (With Mercury having Retrograde regressed into the Sign of Libra).
The Hunter Moon in
Taurus is a time to determine what you’ll need in the coming weeks and how you
may need to go about getting it. The Retrograde is still in effect so let your
effort be flexible and intuitive. The
Full Moon will end the day before the Retrograde concludes on Nov 3rd
The Moon, considered a planet in astrology, is concerned
with needs like food, security, and emotional support. As the planet responsible for mothering,
emotional balance and the home environment, its chief focus is the nature and
care of ones being and, if any, your offspring.
Taurus is a sign that places its emphasis on values, whether
it’s an object which you possess or an opinion that you hold. The sign of
Taurus shares many of the moon’s concerns namely food, shelter and emotional
security. This lunar transit will bring to the forefront
the question of
values regarding your needs. How do you feel about the way earning your living?
Do you feel valued in the important areas of your life? The next three days will bring up these
matters and ask you to make important decisions. Taurus, an earth sign, is very
emotional (its ruler is the planet Venus) and coupled with the Moon, may make
this a very demanding time with regard to your feelings. The good news is that
because Taurus is an earthy sign, decision making should prove grounded in
practical, pragmatic and in realistic thinking. Be aware that you should
mindful of making any major decision during this weekend given the retrograde.
Full moons, again, 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. Work on projects you already are committed to,
making them more effecient.
Taurus, This Moon is going to ask you to assess both
objet and opinions. What do you need and what do you no longer need? As this is
a time of harvest, cultivate what is most useful to you and dispense with all
dead wood and things you’ve outgrown.
Scorpio, this moon will ask that conclude or end that
which works against the pursuit of your desires. Anything found wanting, cast
aside and draw to yourself that which you need to help you advance.
Leo and Aquarius, this moon may ask that you
address an outstanding need. Whether you require rest, nutrition or possibly
change in unproductive habit. Whatever it may be, the underlying question should
be “What will you need?”
This Hunter Full moon should be a time to seek opportunities
for fulfillment and personal gain. Like a great hunter, let instinct and common
sense provide you with the resources you need.
