Good morning!
As I shared in my Saturday Email
Welcome to October and all it brings! Here in Minnesota, the trees seem a little confused as Mother Nature keeps giving us 80-degree days. Soon that will shift, and with it, their colors will change too. That’s one of the reasons Fall is my favorite season—overnight, it feels like Mother Nature takes out her paintbrush to reveal the hidden colors underneath for us to admire and enjoy. 🍂
This week brings the Aries Full Moon on Monday. Inside my Between the Moons Membership, I’ve shared the full October Astrology calendar overview. Members will also receive an in-depth Aries Full Moon guide, including ways to work with the energy once the Moon moves into Aries. The key transit dates are listed below—and if you’d like the detailed breakdown along with the guide, you can always find it inside the membership!

On Monday morning, Mercury moves into Scorpio, giving us sharper focus, emotional depth, and the courage to ask tough questions. Conversations may feel more intense, but this placement helps us uncover truths that have been hidden and transform raw emotion into clarity.
It pairs powerfully with the Aries Full Moon later that night, which shines a light on the tension between Me (Aries) and We (Libra).
Aries, ruled by Mars, stirs bold action—and with Mars currently in Scorpio, emotions can run hot. This lunation may highlight places where anger, frustration, or comparison are weighing you down. The gift of this Full Moon is not avoiding those feelings but finding them, releasing them, and choosing to move your fire with purpose.
🌕 Mantra you can shout at the moon with: “I release my anger and act with courage, clarity, and purpose.”
On Tuesday, you may still feel the effects of the Full Moon and the release it brings to pent-up emotions. A Mercury–Pluto square could draw you into hidden truths, power struggles, or transformational decisions. Be mindful of intensity in communication, and let authenticity guide your choices.
Adding to the day’s flavor, there will be an almost 11-hour Void of Course Moon from 1:23 pm CT to 12:12 am CT Wednesday. This can heighten dream insights and is best used for reflection and completion rather than new beginnings.
✅ Great for:
– Meditating
– Finishing up existing projects
– Taking walks–
Resting or napping
– Creating a to-do list
🚫 Maybe skip:
– Starting something brand new
– Making major decisions
– Being hard on yourself 🤪

As we sleep, the Moon shifts into steady Taurus—so don’t be surprised if getting out of bed feels harder than usual. Once you do, though, these can turn into “work hard, savor hard” kinds of days. 🌿
With a Fixed Sign Moon, people (including you!) may be more set in their ways and preferences. If you’re a parent, giving cues ahead of time about when things need to happen—like leaving the house—can help, since rushing under a Taurus Moon rarely feels good.
On Wednesday, Venus and Jupiter form a beautiful aspect, bringing harmony, warmth, and even a touch of good luck. You may feel drawn to making your home feel more balanced and comforting, or to connecting with people who make you feel safe and heard. This energy supports practical planning for future goals, while also tending to your emotional needs. Think of it like the joy of unexpectedly finding a $10 bill in your pocket—a small gift that brings a big smile. 💫

As we sleep, the Moon slips into curious Gemini. Paired with the Libra Sun, this combo can spark lively debates—sometimes mistaken for arguments! I know this energy well: our son has a Gemini Moon and I have a Libra Sun. My husband swears it feels like we just love to argue for the sake of it 🤪—but really, it’s about exchanging ideas quickly and playfully.
With the Gemini Moon checking in with all the outer planets, the end of the work week carries an “expect the unexpected” vibe. Many of these planetary interactions happen soon after the Moon enters Gemini, so messages and insights may filter through your dreams. If you’d like tips on remembering dreams while still waking up rested, I’ve linked an article HERE for you.
By Friday evening, the Gemini Moon brings a social spark—perfect for going out with friends, sharing conversations, and letting curiosity guide the fun.
Until next week, as we navigate it all together ✨
