Harvest Full Moon in Aries

The Harvest Full Moon is always the Full Moon nearest the Fall Equinox. And in 2012 the Sept. 29 Aries Full Moon fits the bill. This lunation is extremely energetic, as not only does it occur in Mars ruled Aries, but it conjoins highly charged Uranus which is currently square Pluto. Of course, this epic square is the game-changing global transit for next 3 years- and when it gets triggered by quickly moving factors, major world events tend to occur. Thus, we may assume that the process of building on the ruins of the old and revolution (Uranus/Pluto), will be stimulated by the Harvest Full Moon.

Theres a more subtle but potent contact between Mars (lord of the Full Moon), Pluto, and the Moons fateful North Node, which reflects super-human power and strength that could move mountains if wisely harnessed- or erupt in violent explosiveness otherwise.

On a personal level, if one wishes to take bold action and assert initiative, this is the optimal Full Moon under which to do so. Just be sure to check your overblown ego at the door and avoid petty power struggles. The tendency to behave rashly or impulsively is exacerbated.

Mundanely, it's no surprise to find this dynamically powerful Aries Full Moon is strongly focused in the flash-point nation of Syria, where conditions seem to be getting worse and worse. But then again, it's hard to know what is actually happening on the ground there, and what is media spin propagated by the US, NATO, Israel, etc.- as clearly these entities have their own agendas and a stake in the final outcome.
