This October 2022 Full Moon in Aries is the Hunter's Moon, happens right on the heels of yet another eclipse season, and just after Pluto goes direct.

This full moon in Aries is all about taking back our power from past events, people from our past (or present), places we’ve been, etc. and using that reclaimed power to heal past hurts in order for us to be able to grow into the person we are meant to be.

Don’t be afraid of doing this shadow work - embrace it and it’s process. This shadow work and the transformation it will help begin are for you and you alone. So don’t be afraid to put yourself first during this process. Lots of self love, self grace, and me time is essential. So don’t be afraid to be a hermit and tell people “no”.
