The Moon is poised to move from focused and sometimes anxious Virgo into the balanced, cerebral spaciousness of Libra. This is the sign of tomorrow's Full Moon in Libra, and her first aspect is an easy trine with Venus (Libra's ruler) in Gemini. Beautiful ideas and beautiful words can flow today.
The Air signs––Gemini, Libra and Aquarius––value clarity and perspective. If life has felt murky lately, stuck in swampy emotions or lacking in movement and direction, The Libra Moon and Venus in Gemini bring fresh breezes and shifts in the wind.
Over the next few days, the Libra Moon will form awkward inconjuncts with the Pisces planets: visionary Neptune, healing Chiron, and Mercury still dreaming away in his retrograde shadow. Venus in Gemini will square these same planets over the next week or so, beginning with Neptune today.
The Moon and Venus are also urging the Earth planets forward: Edgy and challenging aspects between the Moon and Mars, Pluto and Jupiter will also happen over the next few days.
Wake up! say the Moon and Venus. Spring is here! Open your eyes. Look around. Feel the wind on your face. Spring is bustin' out all over where I live, with the energy of Air carrying sweet scents as well as loads of pollen. Plants, insects and birds, procreating like crazy and loving every minute.
Of course, challenging aspects between Air and Water can also stir up storms as movements of air carrying different amounts of moisture at different temperatures meet and mix. Yet Libra is a sign of balance and harmony, calming the exuberance of Gemini Venus, and hopefully diminishing more violent movements of air.

| self and other in harmony |
The Libra–Aries opposition illuminates where we are balancing (or not balancing) honoring ourselves and honoring others, following our own star and taking care of family, friends and community, pursuing our own goals and values while creating just and fair societies.
This is the time of year when Aries is strong: New life emerging, vibrant and fiery, ready to go, to do, to grab, to have. We need this juicy energy, which is the fire of life itself.
The Libra Full Moon reminds us that all life emerges into a context, an ecosystem, a community. No being is an island, and we all depend on the support of those around us to survive. When cultures and ecosystems are in homeostasis, the energy of each supports the needs of all and each of us is thereby strengthened.
The Moon's last aspect in Libra is a conjunction with Saturn, who remains retrograde in this sign of harmony and justice. When we find our balance point, we have the power to manifest our dreams.
The Moon will be void of course for five hours on Saturday morning, a time of rest after the bright light of the Full Moon. While the Moon is in Libra, we raise our eyes above the horizon, sniff the winds, welcome change, and find a new balance within ourselves and our communities.
