What to expect from tonight’s full moon

The full moon happens once a month when the sun is positioned exactly opposite the moon presenting it in a full and gleaming light. This can have a drastic effect on us, whatever our star sign as well as presenting opportunities which should be harnessed. The full moon always acts as a monthly opportunity to begin something new. This could be a project which you have been picking up and putting down over the past six months. The full moon also acts as an opportunity to release things in your life which you feel are no longer serving you. Astrologers predict that this month’s full moon could bring a lot of this energy and that some may feel a new and bold sense of urgency to begin or complete projects and life tasks which have been hanging around for a while. In addition, the full moon this month will closely oppose Mars – the red planet which is most closely associated with action, courage and energy. This will give some people some extra energy and a new-found attitude to complete tasks and chase their ambitions. This need to take action around something could be a project that you have been putting off, or it could also be something else that you are passionate about. This could take the form of an emotional conversation which you need to have with a loved one or a new career change. The full moon this month will also form an activating square with Pluto, which could promote some unsettling energy for some. Pluto is the planet of death, birth and transformation and this could prompt you or other people in your life to behave in a compulsive and destructive way.
