Full moons represent a culmination point—a moment when we reach a peak, whether positive or challenging. With this full moon in Taurus, many of us are likely experiencing a long-awaited, perhaps sudden, realization of our internal need for comfort, stability, and grounding in our physical senses.

This full moon brings a lot of cosmic energy. It’s trine to Pluto, conjunct Uranus, and its ruler, Venus, is in Capricorn. Additionally, Saturn is stationing direct on the same day. Let’s break down what all this might mean.

Mars will enter Leo on November 3rd and will remain there in direct motion until December 5th. This shift brings a positive change in our energy! On January 6, Mars will retrograde back into Cancer, where it will stay until April 17. The time spent with Mars in Leo will provide a much-needed break from the emotional, indirect, and defensive energy associated with Mars in Cancer, which we have been feeling since September 4th.
