Can you feel that? There’s something in the wind, and it feels as though, change isn’t too far behind. March is supercharged with a number of celestial energies, but on March 20, the very same day as the vernal equinox, the universe is gifting us with a majestic lunation, ruled by none other than gorgeous Venus, planet of love and beauty. Truth is, the phases of mother moon communicate with us and through us, but when la luna illuminates the night sky at her peak, the seeds we planted during the new moon phase are at full bloom. Bask in the moonlight, and ask the goddess of the moon to rejuvenate your spirit. This is a celebration from the heavens and a collective culmination, as we are given the opportunity to reflect on our growth and progress. In the end, the full moon phase is a symbol of completion, fertility, and spiritual abundance.
However, despite the alluring and ever-glowing presence of the full moon, it’s important to find an outlet where you can release emotional tension. Remember, the moon is a symbol of our inner world, and when she beams at her fullest potential, our emotions become heightened. Dance under her mystical presence, and celebrate all that you’ve manifested. Write your thoughts in a paper and burn it as part of a releasing ceremony. Charge your crystals, and take full advantage of the electric sky. Approach your shadow self with no judgment, as there is no need to be afraid. Acknowledge your repressed feels, and try to understand why they’re resurfacing. Mother moon is our loyal companion, so let your intuition be your guide. In the meantime, think back to the new moon in Libra that took place on October 8, 2018. This is a time to regain your power, and reap all that you’ve sown.
Given that March 20 marks the first day of Aries season, this magical full moon will be taking place in the sign of the scales. Now, this might sound like a coincidence, given Libra’s astrological symbolism, but the full moon is a call for balance, and this is because when the moon is full, it is traveling on the opposite side of the sun. For instance, Aries is Libra’s polar opposite and vice versa; however, both of these energies go hand-in-hand, as they are located on the same astrological axis: the ego and the relation of the self to other people. With that said, what’s evolved in regard to your relationships since October of last year? How are you integrating yourself into the lives of others, and vice versa? Where have you gained balance, and learned how to compromise? If none of the above pertains to you, please do not feel discouraged, as lunations are unique to everyone.
Libra is a representation of balance, codependency, equality, harmony, and justice. Its cardinal air is kind, light-hearted, and diplomatic. This charming air sign marks the halfway point in the zodiac wheel, and its season occurs during the Fall Equinox when it becomes time to understand both sides of the story. Interestingly enough, that is the very same essence of this lunation, except this time, we are being reborn in the spring. However, in the midst of Mercury retrograde, and Uranus’ recent shift into slow-moving Taurus, this lunation might not be as harmonious as we’d like it to be. For starters, the energy of Mercury retrograde will likely spark confusion and a number of misunderstandings, but it doesn’t end there. The sun and the moon’s planetary ruler (Mars and Venus) will be making a square to one another, which in turn can spark tension between male and female energies.
Nevertheless, despite the super-charged energies swirling during this full moon, it’s important to remember one thing: Full moons are a cosmic culmination from the heavens. Therefore, this is a time to reflect on your progress, and bask in la luna’s glimmering light. On that note, see your full moon in Libra horoscope and reflection below:
Aries
Cheers to another trip around the sun, Aries! This full moon is extra special as it will illuminate the night sky on the first day of your birthday season. Looks like things are getting pretty serious these days, huh? With la luna illuminating your seventh house of relationships, and committed partnerships, you will likely gain closure in regard to an arrangement, contract, or perhaps your current relationship status. *Reflect on the following, Aries: Have you found harmony within your current partnerships? What have they taught you about yourself?*
Taurus
What needs fixing, Taurus? With la luna shaking up your responsible sixth house of health, physicality, and day-to-day details, your current routine and physical well being will be highlighted during this time. Mother moon is putting a spotlight on your health habits, work patterns, and all that needs to be reorganized. Who knows, you might decide to revamp your entire workstation. *Reflect on the following, Taurus: Are you living a healthy and balanced lifestyle? What part of your routine has changed, or perhaps improved?*
Gemini
Spotlight’s on you, Gemini darling. Lights. Camera. Action! With the full moon traveling through your sister sign, and your expressive fifth house of romance, creativity, and authentic truth, you will be as charismatic as ever. La luna is bringing you closure and clarity, in regard to your sense of joy. Are those butterflies fluttering in your stomach? Some of you might finally discover your creative muse, or perhaps become smitten with a familiar love interest. *Reflect on the following, Gemini: What makes you attractive and unique? How have you expressed love, and self love?*
Cancer
Home is where your heart is, Cancer. This magical full moon will illuminate your cozy humble abode, bringing closure and clarity in regard to your home, family, and emotional foundation.

What’s changed in regard to your sense of security?*
Leo
Not enough hours in a day, Leo? With the full moon illuminating your detail-oriented third house of communication, transportation, and immediate circle, there may or may not be a few important conversations coming up for you during this time. Who knows, some of you could be feeling really indecisive about something, and voila! However, given that this area of your chart is ruled by Mercury the messenger, this retrograde cycle could very well spark a possible negotiation with a sibling, or close relative. *Reflect on the following, Leo: Have you been communicating with an open mind? Have you reached a compromise with a sibling, or perhaps someone in your immediate circle?*
Virgo
You’ve got your mind on your money, and your money on your mind, Virgo. With la luna igniting your wealthy second house of income, possessions, values, and self worth, you will likely be in the mood to splurge. In fact, this lunation could also bring news regarding your finances. Have you been sharing your income with a partner? Who knows, maybe some of you suddenly discover charming new ways to make money. *Reflect on the following, Virgo: How have you been owning up to your self-worth? Are you aware of the unique charms you possess?*
Libra
You only get one full moon a year, and this one will light up the night sky just for you, Libra. With la luna in your sign, you could suddenly get the urge to break free, whether be creatively, or emotionally. One thing’s for sure: there’s a whole lot coming to the surface for you these days, so make sure to stay balanced. Themes related to your sense of self and partnerships will be emphasized during this time. Although, for some, this lunation could also be the beginning of a revolution, in regard to your shared resources, and intimate unions. *Reflect on the following, Libra: Are you being true to your heart’s desires? When was the last time you put yourself first?*
Scorpio
Closure feels so good, doesn’t it, Scorpio? With la luna illuminating your 12th house of dreams, karma, and spirituality, this is your moment to surrender, and perhaps turn the page on something that’s been weighing you down for quite some time now. You might not be feeling like your usual self, so feel free to retreat, and bask in your solitude during this time. *Reflect on the following, Scorpio: What do you need to let go of in order to find harmony in your everyday life? How are you practicing mindfulness?*
Sagittarius
The whole is greater than the sum of its parts, Sagittarius. With la luna igniting your eleventh house of friendships, groups, teams, and tribe, you could find closure and clarity in regard to your sense of belonging, or perhaps an activity that involves teamwork. What are friends for, Sagittarius? Feel free to turn to your crew during this time. *Reflect on the following, Sagittarius: Does your soul truth align with the people you’ve been surrounding yourself with? Have you been spending time with like-minded individuals?*
Capricorn
Hard work pays off, Capricorn. With the full moon illuminating your ambitious tenth house of career, authority figures, and reputation in the world, you could suddenly find closure and clarity, in regard to your professional life, or perhaps an important parental figure. What have you been working towards in the past couple months? Who knows, some of you might make an important decision in the workplace, or start an exciting new career venture. *Reflect on the following, Capricorn: Is your current reputation in the world in harmony with your soul’s foundation? How do you make time for both your personal, and professional life?*

Wanderlust much, Aquarius? With la luna shaking up your expansive ninth house of travel, higher learning, and personal philosophy, you could be feeling a lot more spontaneous than usual. Whether you’re about to take a big risk, or finally decide to go back to school, this lunation might very well be the moment to do so. *Reflect on the following, Aquarius: What’s changed in regard to your life panorama, and personal perspective? How are you expanding your horizons?*
Pisces
You get what you give, Pisces. With the full moon igniting your suspicious eighth house of sex, transformation, and shared resources, some of you could finally pay off your debt, or perhaps receive news of a possible pregnancy, and new beginning. What’s changed in regard to your intimate unions in the past couple of months? *Reflect on the following, Pisces: Are you getting as much as you’ve been giving, whether it be romantically or financially speaking? Does your sex life align with your core values?*
