Full moons represent a period of completeness. There can be mystical and magical phenomena around full moons. Every month the full moon moves into a new astrology sign and house. This full moon on October 14th, is in the cardinal sign of Aries which is ruled by the planet Mars. The planet, Mars, is indicative of how one faces their anger and how stress affects us. We find this full moon in Aries in the 3rd house which is the house of communications, transportation and self expression. In mundane astrology which is application of astrology to world affairs and world events, it could be a period of wild fires or plane crashes. It could be a period of some kind of upheaval around the world when it comes to terrorism. The planet Mars in astrology represents the god of war and defender of his people - representing our desires to get closer to our collective conscientiousness.

Native Americans call this moon October - Hunter's Moon, Moon of Falling Leaves. This is a good time for us to become more compassionate of our fellow man; to come together as you would around a circle in a camp fire. Aries personalities draw attention because they have high spirits, great enthusiasm, and are honest and open. The astrological sign of Aries is a ram - consider this energy force and enthusiasm by accomplishing your goals and ram yourself to success. Think of a full moon in Aries where there can be produced a lot of radiant, vitalizing energy that you can capitalize on for your personal growth.
During this full moon in Aries you should pay attention to your respiratory ailments and nervous system if you have any weaknesses there.

This is a period to take time out and reflect on your inner growth by initiating something or becoming enterprising. Aries energy means it's a good time to be creative in the sense of causing things to begin. It's all about enthusiasm and taking that energy and running with it - like a football player who is running towards his goal without anyone near him to tackle him down.

Do be careful around this full moon because people do have a tendency to be more argumentative with you and vice versa.
