We have a Full Moon in Libra at 19.48 BST on 28th March 2021 as the Venus is still conjoining Sun, having ingressed into Aries at the start of the astrological year.

This Full Moon reflects classic Sun-Moon, Venus-Mars, Aries-Libra themes; exploring relationship between self and other and prioritising the needs of the individual, autonomous self with the needs of others, or the group. It’s also not an intense one, as there are some flowing trines both to Saturn and Mars and there’s not a lot of tension in the Mercury-Neptune conjunction.

Moving together, Venus and Sun in quick succession in Aries is raising the temperature, making things more active and warming life up. It’s beginning to feel like spring is in the air, and an internal heatwave is underway. It’s beginning to feel at this time, like it’s time to do more and aspire to more. Aries energy gives us the desire to act more and engage our energy in the world. Aries is the desire for action.

To set the scene, we have Sun-Venus in Aries, rules by Mars, which is the polarity of Venus, and the Moon is in Libra, the sign that rules Venus. So clearly we have Venus-Mars, Libra-Aries spectrum themes and dynamics at this time. That’s the autonomous, individual relationship to, and with, others.

When we think about sovereignty, and what we are learning about this, we have to include the other. We are not Aries islands, we are Aries-Libra. The polarity is always part of the equation. And certainly more so at this Full Moon.

The superior or exterior conjunction of Sun-Venus cazimi, is when Venus is on the far side of the Sun. The Sun is looking out into the cosmos looking out into the far reaches, giving us this more Divine or aspirational feel. It’s potential, but not in the same way as Pisces, which is more idealistic. This time it’s more grounded, more embodied, more sovereign.

Looking out through the lenses of Venus, which in many ways has important connections to sovereignty (more on that another time), it really seems like we are being asked to examine, make adjustments and reframe how we interact with others; personally, professionally and romantically.

This Full Moon where there is an opposition between Sun and Moon (masculine and feminine), in a Venus ruled sign (Moon in Libra), right after that perfect moment between Sun-Venus, brings in the negotiation of autonomous desires with our relational insights – our relationships within and with others. Moon (needs) Libra’s relational themes are further highlighting that Aries-Libra’s theme of self and other.

Perhaps true sovereignty is about this relationship – the dance, integration and unification of the opposites – you don’t get more opposite than Aries-Libra, Venus-Mars.

So the quiet happenings beneath the glow of the Sun’s light are immediately made manifest and put into action by this Full Moon in Venus’ sign. The Moon calls it in. She is making flowing trines to Mars and Saturn – the two malefics, she’s not disappearing, she’s active, impulsive but embracing harmony. This means the Moon forms a grand trine; flowing energy to challenging planets which mitigates some of the challenge and perhaps encourages a look at the difficulties, without fear, even if the issues feel very present.

Here it’s possible to find the right angle on the issues – a functional approach to the problem. So while there is no absence of problems, there’s a way forward to solving them. These flowing trine aspects from Mars and Saturn mean the Moon is not boxed in, it has resources. The Aries-Mars shows a willing dance, even if these issues are uncomfortable to address.

With the first decan of Aries, the question is how do we all get to maximise our own potential and follow our own desires, while remaining in harmonious relationship with each other, with the whole. How do we resolve and negotiate the moments when me and you collide into each other?

Tarot – 2 of Feathers

Bring the stream of your thoughts to a stop. Observe your inner dialogue through meditation. Realize how chains of thoughts are formed and how they freeze into automatic thought patterns, doubting and pondering. Just for a moment let your thoughts come to a standstill. Feel the power of the space that lies between a dying and newly forming thought.

Archetypes – The Destroyer

The Destroyer – the final of the three archetypes in the trio of existence – as necessary yet painful work to do in the world. Culturally, we have an aversion to endings. And we hang on to permanence as a signifier of success. Yet The Destroyer pulls the rug out from underneath relationships, jobs, homes, and all forms of security. It’s the part of us that wants things to end. Its painful orientation is to uncover our true purpose. The Destroyer does not let us linger long in comforts, as it knows not much happens in that realm. With its piercing eyes, it seeks out stagnancy from a distance and the rest…becomes history. In the old myths this is the moment when heads begin to roll, the ground opens up, and castles crumble. Hold on for the ride – The Destroyer has arrived. When light it is swift and precise blows that redirect our life. When dark it is self-destruction, negativity, unwillingness to rebuild.

I’Ching – The Art of Precision 62

This hexagram has the capacity to go beyond the maya by going through the maya – the shadow world of intellect, rooted in dualism. Intellect is based upon number and associated with facts. Everything has become about the dialectic, about identification, opposites, reason and conflict; intellect and facts. Ancient wisdom didn’t take the magic away from number as we do, making it rigid as fact and creating a world of false reality. Facts can be manipulated to give us the illusion of order, balance and harmony. Here we need to uproot false realities, the maya. The only cellular certainty is love. But we’re split – we are no longer one, we have become two. We can only return to unity, to one, by moving forwards into three, trinity. To step out of the maya is to see the depth of the illusion that surrounds us in everything, everywhere. Precision gives us the ability to see which patterns are in resonance with truth and which are false. Unconditional love – love rooted in service of the whole, is the only love that can dismantle the maya. Only truth has influence, and when truth is expressed through our physicality it becomes impeccability. It’s pure authentic presence. We’re no longer the mover but the moved. We’re no longer the choosers but the chosen. We’re no longer divided but whole.
