Be Kind, But Take No Shit: The Aries Full Moon!
A few days after the Equinox, we have a Full Moon in Aries, conjunct Neptune and Saturn.
The Moon is in Aries, while the Sun is in Libra, bringing us directly into the tension between self and other, individuality and relationship, the need to be ourselves and the need to belong.
This is one of the fundamental developmental axes of human experience.
Libra teaches us through relationship, through mirroring ourselves in others, through the ability to see another person. Aries brings us back to ourselves. It speaks of individuation, the development of our own will, and the capacity to exist as a separate being, independent of how others see us or what they expect from us.
The dispositor of the Sun in Libra is Venus in Scorpio, in a square to Pluto in Aquarius. Venus is preparing to turn retrograde through Scorpio, then move back through Libra before turning direct, creating a total of three squares to Pluto. Our relationships are undergoing some profound changes.
I wrote about this in detail in my latest blog post.
But what is especially important to me in this lunation is its dispositor: Mars at 29° Cancer.
Mars at 29° Cancer – More Than Just an “Old Emotional Pattern”
Mars is the dispositor of the Moon, which means Mars describes how the lunar impulse manifests as action.
In Cancer, Mars can act from the need for emotional security. But this opens up an important question: are we responding from the present moment, or from the emotional memory of the past? In other words, Mars in Cancer can show that our will is still conditioned by the need to feel safe, protected, or to belong. And this is where 29° becomes particularly interesting, because it approaches the completion of that way of functioning. I would not say that this is simply the end of an emotional pattern. It is deeper than that. The soul has exhausted a particular mode of emotional self-protection. What was once necessary for our emotional security may no longer be necessary for our continued development.
We can change the relationship, the job, the partner, or the circumstances, but if we bring the same inner way of responding and seeking security into the new situation, we have changed nothing.
That is why this 29° of Cancer is so important. It speaks of the culmination of a particular way of emotional functioning – the moment when the soul can no longer continue relying on the same strategy for security.
Mars then moves into Leo after the Full Moon.
And a different way of expressing will becomes possible.
Mars in Leo seeks to know and express itself as an individual, acting and creating from a genuine sense of who it is rather than from the need to be validated by others.
Full Moon Conjunct Neptune and Saturn
Neptune dissolves. Saturn crystallizes what remains.
You feel something that deeply pulls you in, realize that you’re not entirely sure what it is- you face reality, and ultimately decide what you truly want to bring into reality. And precisely because it’s in Aries, Saturn can be especially important here: it’s not only asking you to understand something, but to take responsibility for your own will.
North Node in Aquarius — Freedom to Be Ourselves
And here we come to another very important part of this story – the North Node in Aquarius.
The North Node in Aquarius speaks of an evolutionary movement toward freedom, objectivity, and authentic expression. But Aquarius is not simply about “doing whatever you want.” It is about freeing ourselves from the need to have our worth validated through other people.
And we do not reject the wisdom of the Leo South Node. No. That is our root ! There is no crown without roots.
The South Node in Leo represents the development of the individual self – our creativity, our heart, our capacity to shine and to express our unique nature. We take that with us. We bring our authenticity and individuality into the collective (North Node in Aquarius) , into communities, relashionships, friendships, groups, and the larger human field. You are an individual and the collective.
This is where Aquarius asks us to celebrate diversity rather than conformity. The lower manifestation of the Aquarius North Node can be the need to belong at the expense of our own truth.
And we won’t do that.
Becoming Our Own Authority
Saturn is also the ruler of Black Moon Lilith, which recently entered Capricorn.
Her lesson is: Becoming our own authority.
And I must say, Black Moon Lilith in Capricorn is the worst nightmare of patriarchal structures. :))She’s about ending the outsourcing of our own authority. We no longer ask others to tell us who we are. We no longer ask for permission to set boundaries. We no longer need anyone’s confirmation that we have the right to live our own lives.We become our own authority.
This powerful journey of Lilith through Capricorn will continue until June 2026.
Life and consciousness are in constant evolution.
We do not ask anyone whether we have the right to be ourselves.
That is our birth-given right.
Piercing the Veil – special! 🗡️
Neptune in Aries is the spiritual warrior: the force that pierces the veil of illusion, cuts through manufactured narratives, and brings what has been concealed into the light.
New Age and “false light” culture should be called what they are: a constructed religious system that, in my view, has absorbed, repackaged, and concealed occult ideas beneath the language of enlightenment, healing, ascension, and spiritual awakening.
It is a form of spiritualism stripped of discipline, training, and tradition. It takes symbols, practices, and fragments from ancient traditions, removes them from their original context, and presents them as enlightenment.
The hardest part is skipped: serious study, the cultivation of moral character and ethical responsibility, preparation, discernment, discipline, and sustained inner practice.
Without these foundations, what presents itself as spiritual development easily becomes a labyrinth of borrowed concepts, unchecked imagination, and subjective projections – mistaking inner fantasy for spiritual knowledge.
The task is not to believe everything that calls itself light, but to wake from the dream, see through the illusion, and have the courage to name it for what it is!
Be kind, but take no shit!
Happy Full Moon!
