2019 delivers something special â two Full Moons in the balance-seeking sign of Libra. On the 19th at 4:12am, the Moon will be full at 29° Libra, with the jarring planet, Uranus, caught up in the mix.
Full Moons occur when the Sun and Moon are opposite each other in the sky, and they always represent a time to let go and reset emotionally. This is why we tend to get so emo as things rise to the surface, begging to be dealt with. Because of Uranusâ involvement, you can expect the unexpected. Uranus brings upsets and revelations, while the Moon wants heartfelt expansion. The results may be anything from chaotic to transformational.
Ask yourself where you've been trying to control outcomes rather than receive truth. The tension between you and me â and what it all means for us â is kicked up now. If your willingness show up is dependent on knowing what the other person is thinking or feeling, what does that mean about you? Or about the trust and authenticity of your relationships?
Now isnât the time for answers, but it is the time for questioning everything. Relationships and connections are like a teeter-totter. Consistent movement, balance, and consent are necessary from both parties in order for the game to stay fun and fair. Seek that balance now, and if it isnât there, confront it head-on.
This theme is carried forward on the 20th by the Sun moving into Taurus and Venus entering Aries. This changing of signs is likely to feel like an exhale after holding your breath. Ground yourself, and be proactive in how you connect with others. Activate your goals, and invest in your passions. This is Spring â a rich time to experience new growth.
On the 22nd the Sun will form an exact conjunction to Uranus in Taurus. This is a combustible transit in a sign that is slow to execute change, so the energy around this date is likely to be uncomfortable. Instead of seeking security, seek freedom; build foundations on another date. When you're standing still on a revolving planet, can anything be expected to stay the same for long? Be a change maker in the evolution of your life and the world around you this week.

ARIES
March 21-April 19
That sense of overwhelm that you've been feeling is fair enough, and itâs inevitable that it would trickle down to your relationships. Whether or not youâve got too many commitments really isn't as important as how you feel about them. Allow space for your emotions to catch up with your plans, Aries. If you push yourself too far, too fast, youâre likely to feel stuck or resentful. Take pause to check in with yourself before you take action this week.

TAURUS
April 20-May 20
If things donât go your way, itâs likely to be disappointing. However, the meaning of the thing that's upsetting you won't totally be clear. Allow matters to evolve without assuming the worst this week. Thereâs a bigger picture at play, and youâre unlikely to be able to see all the details of it yet. Honor your feelings without getting defensive or jumping to make a game plan. Focus on your reactions to shakeups â not the surprises themselves, Taurus.

GEMINI
May 21-June 21
Fear is a tricky thing. It keeps you up at night, running what ifs and telling you that itâs trying to keep you safe, but is it really? You canât know what you donât know, Twin Star. Now is the time to work with the known variables of your life, to organize and cope with the things that are immediately in front of you. If youâve been fixated on nailing all the steps at once, consider this an invitation to take a step back into the present moment. Put one foot in front of the other this week.

CANCER
June 22-July 22
Sometimes you have to question a thing in order to truly choose it. Sometimes it takes losing something or someone in order to know how much you cherish them. Donât resist your intense experiences and feelings to the extent that you miss out on the opportunities they yield. You may have to let go to hold on, but Moonchild, youâre ready to find out what will happen if you donât do so much of the heavy lifting. Let the truth reveal itself to you this week.

LEO
July 23-Aug. 22
This week, less is more, Leo. Youâre going through a lot, and if you donât prioritize and pace yourself, youâre likely to make things worse. Itâs OK to say no or to ask for help when you need it. The things that aren't working for you are just signs. They're pointing toward what needs love, care, and attention from you â not whatâs âwrongâ. Take the judgment out of your attitudes, and approach your struggles with the intention of being compassionate, my love.

VIRGO
Aug. 23-Sept. 22
It doesnât matter how smart you are or how good your attitude is; if you absorb too much of other peopleâs opinions, overindulge yourself, or just generally burn your candle at both ends, youâre gonna feel fatigued. Take control of your life by being a better editor, Virgo. Cut back or put secondary items on hold so that you can better manage what's essential. Your distractions will usurp you if you let them. Spend your time wisely this week.

LIBRA
Sept. 23-Oct. 22
This week brings with it a second Full Moon in your sign, and itâs going to kick up some major feelings. You may find yourself feeling soupy and emo without knowing quite what to do with it, so be patient with yourself. How you show up with others is demanding your attention. The best way to honor yourself (and other peopleâs time and energy), is to go a step deeper than understanding your situation â to actually accepting it. Engage (or not) with the truth, Libra.

SCORPIO
Oct. 23-Nov. 21
Itâs time for the fine art of splitting the difference, Scorpio. Itâs not just that youâre changing in unexpected ways (which you very much are); itâs that the people youâre close to are changing too. It may be too soon to know what it all means, but change is in the air this week, and you may find yourself reacting to others more intensely than you intended. Hold space for everyoneâs emotional process, as you still donât know quite where the chips will fall.

SAGITTARIUS
Nov. 22-Dec. 21
The most important thing I can tell you this week is that you have to decide to follow through, or to take responsibility for the consequences. Like it or not, how you engage with the promises youâve already made are on the table this week. If you find yourself tempted to blame others or to take yourself off the hook, think again, my friend. You alone are the steward of honoring your word; you only win the trust of others by being worthy of it, Sagittarius

CAPRICORN
Dec. 22-Jan. 19
Thereâs a lot thatâs yet TBD, Capricorn. That isnât cause for concern, but it should be a cause for inquiry. As your relationship to people, ambitions, and your commitments changes, so must you, but what that means is unlikely to be clear quite yet. Strive to be watchful this week, both of your own impulses and stories as well as of others. In the words of Maya Angelou, âWhen someone shows you who they are, believe them the first time.â

AQUARIUS
Jan. 20-Feb. 18
Reign yourself in, and remember what youâre in it for. When your process of evaluation isnât coming from a clear place, you inevitably feel confused, or you may make choices that give you mixed results. Reconnect with your intentions and your goals this week. Notice your reactions without acting on them right away. Respond in ways that reflect the person you want to be and the ambitions that you hold dear. Don't let your strongest emotion in the moment be the driving force, Aquarius.

PISCES
Feb. 19-March 20
Love yourself without conditions, Pisces. You are entitled to feel any kind of way that you do â thereâs no need for guilt about the contents of your heart. And there's no need to repress your emotions. That said, youâre not entitled to act any kind of way or demand that others drop everything because youâre in an intense place. Your ability to self-soothe is being activated this week. Honoring needs and limits â both yours and others' â is an act of love, but acts of love can be sticky sometimes.
