The Moon tonight
Full Moon · 100%
Moon in Aries
The Mother — full Moon
The Mother is abundant, nurturing and at the height of her power. The full Moon is the traditional esbat — a time to celebrate, give thanks, charge crystals and tools, and work any magic that needs strength and fulfilment.
Moon in Aries: bold, fast energy — courage, new starts, leadership and anything needing a push.
Today is Sunday — ruled by the Sun: success, health, confidence, fame and vitality.
