How The October 9 Full Moon Will Affect You If You're A Libra
The full moon on October 9 will light up the sky in the sign of Aries. This lunation marks the appearance of October's Hunter's Moon, a time in the Northern Hemisphere when hunters take to the outdoors to catch game such as deer (via Old Farmer's Almanac). According to InStyle, this month's full moon will have many members of the zodiac putting themselves first as they'll feel pulled to throw the chaos of their life back in order and prioritize things like self-care, health, and daily routines. The outlet suggests putting your own needs first without guilt and focusing on your personal goals. "With the moon opposing it from Aries, the energy is about balancing your own emotional needs and the needs of the romantic partner, in addition to maintaining [other] relationships," astrologer Yana Yanovich tells PopSugar.
For those looking to work with the energy of the full moon, there are many ways to do so. Full moon rituals such as saying affirmations, manifestation, journaling, using tarot cards, working on a vision board, making moon water, and more are all great ways to celebrate the lunation as well as get in touch with your spiritual side, per Oprah Daily.
If you're a Libra, the full moon may highlight your relationships as well.
Libra may need to say goodbye to a relationship during the full moon
Those born under the sign of Libra (September 23 to October 22) will be busy during the full moon on October 9. Not only is it Libra season, but the lunation has the possibility to bring some heavy emotions to the surface for the air sign. InStyle reveals that this month's full moon falls in Libra's seventh house of partnership, and will highlight their relationships, whether they be with a romantic partner, friend, family member, or co-worker. This will be the time of deep reflection and thought for Libra, who may be forced to consider their relationships closely.
According to Woman & Home, this full moon is the ideal time for Libra to dive into their relationships and decide if those connections are serving them. Are these relationships bringing you joy, and what are you getting out of them? If you find that certain partnerships are no longer creating a happy, safe place for you, it might be time to ditch the negativity and release certain people from your life, although it won't be easy. Libras are known for being people-pleasers and they hate confrontation (via Yahoo), but remember to put your own needs first in this situation and you'll find the strength you need.
The full moon is the perfect time for Libra to practice gratitude
Although Libras may have some tough decisions to make regarding their relationships during the time of the full moon on October 9, the heavy emotions won't last long. "[Libra is] likely to feel its destabilizing effect the most, especially if you have several planets in this sign," astrologer Yana Yanovich tells PopSugar. However, the outlet notes that those feelings of being out of place are likely to pass before you know it.
However, the lunation will also bring a sense of peace to the air sign. Allure notes that the weekend of the full moon will be filled with themes of happiness and gratitude as the sign continues to celebrate Libra season. So, now would be a great time to make a list of all of the things you're grateful for, and go easy on yourself with activities such as yoga, meditation, and manifestation. The outlet also reveals that Libras should celebrate any and all success that they've had over the past few months, and give themselves a pat on the back for everything that they've accomplished both big and small.
It seems that the full moon will be a time of major reflection, yet happiness and transformation for Libra. The sign is currently enjoying its birthday and the autumn season, so they have plenty of reasons to be cheerful.
