At first glance, October’s Taurus Full Moon looks a bit heavy and daunting. It features a square from recently stationed Pluto, a conjunction with Chiron, an opposition from Venus retrograde, and it follows Mercury’s retrograde station in Scorpio (bringing us deeper into a few weeks of revision and readjustment).

We are likely to feel more the Pluto/Scorpio realm here—increased emotional/psychological intensity, deep feels, and raw honesty. Yet this can also be deeply healing on some level, or at least highly revealing and clarifying about issues we’ve been sitting on.

Gaining deep insight into the past feels like a solid piece of this energy. Since this is a Full Moon, there is something very conclusive and clarifying here. Also, the tide is shifting from what has been more raw, real, and intense.  We can look forward to the more pleasant side of Venus over the next few weeks, with much more serendipitous flow.

Still, especially on a collective level, this is some heavy Full Moon energy, and it all looks rather cathartic. The darker side can be an eruption of deeply repressed energy and dynamics, and a hard look at what’s defective and maladaptive. But that more honest view can catalyze important, vital movement. It shows us a way forward and sets us on course for positive resolution.
