How October’s Full Supermoon in Aries Will Affect Each Zodiac Sign

October has no shortage of unbelievable lunations. An intense culmination will arrive mid-October, so you might wonder how the full supermoon in Aries—a.k.a. the Hunter’s Moon—will affect each zodiac sign. The hot-blooded lunar energy will motivate you to be self-focused and self-oriented. What will you accomplish during the full moon in Aries?

Full moons represent a natural culmination, suggesting that nature’s cycles are connected to the lunar phases. This full moon will be hailed as the Hunter’s Moon, representing the time to hunt in preparation for winter. For some, this lunation might actually be the perfect time to top off your winter stores with dried and frozen meat. For most, the Hunter’s Moon will encourage you to look for supplies you’ll need for the cold months ahead. Your resources will depend on your physical, emotional, and spiritual needs. Reflect on what you wish you had more of last winter, so that you can prepare accordingly this winter.

Plus, the full moon in Aries will be a supermoon. Supermoons occur when the full moon approaches its closest distance from the Earth, a.k.a. the “perigee.” The full moon appears larger and brighter at the perigee, which is why it’s a supermoon. Super-charged feelings coincide with supermoons. Your gentle heart will be highly susceptible to other’s emotions, so make sure you have strong energetic boundaries to avoid feeling overwhelmed. Don’t be surprised if you spend more time alone than with others during the supermoon.

On October 17, 2024, the full moon in Aries will culminate at 7:26 a.m. ET, which will occur at 24 degrees. Intense nostalgia may take over, since the lunar energy will call everything from the past six months into focus. Everyone you have met, all the experiences you have had, and more will come to mind. You might feel overwhelmed by your strong sentimentality. Allow yourself the time and grace to process everything that will surface. Everyone will be more self-centered than usual, given the emotional complexity of this supermoon.

It’s all about you during this full moon in Aries. As the first of the zodiac, Aries is considered to be notably self-focused. Hopefully, you have explored your selfhood throughout the six-month lunar cycle. True to the Aries energy, you could have practiced being more selfish. Filling your cups is essential if you want to fill other’s cups. You could have experimented with the identity you wish to embody, which could have translated to acting or dressing differently. Prioritizing self-discovery could have helped you find yourself by the full moon in Aries.

A polarizing energy will dominate the day, as the sun in Libra opposes the full moon in Aries. Depending on your relationship status, you might have to get comfortable either flying solo or with a partner. Standing alone might feel uneasy, especially if you’re used to working alongside someone else. By proxy, letting someone come along for the ride might be just as stressful if you’re used to doing life alone. Regardless of your relationship status, find comfort in your predicament by focusing on what you can can do for yourself.

Friction will build, since the full moon in Aries will antagonize Mars in Cancer. Usually, a lunar-Mars fight could be emotionally volatile. However, this lunar-Mars aspect operates differently, because the full moon and Mars are in mutual reception. Mutual reception occurs when two planets are in each other’s favorite zodiac signs, so this strengthens the relationship between both planets. In this case, Mars and the full moon can help one another capitalize on emotional gravity. Use the force of your feelings to do something memorable. Make your actions count.

Reflect on who or what you want to remain committed to, given that the full moon in Aries will create a minor aspect with Juno in Libra. Although the asteroid’s energy isn’t as potent, Juno reminds you to focus on finding your equal following this lunation. Your equal could be a lover, friend, or family member. Finding your other half will help you feel less alone, since relying solely on yourself can be isolating. Don’t be afraid to connect with someone else who sees and understands you. Likewise, don’t hesitate to cut someone off if they make you feel lonely with them.
