Full Moon in Libra Chart: April 19, 2019

The Full Moon in Libra marks the beginning of a new cycle.

The Full Moon occurs on Friday morning when the Sun in Aries forms an opposition to the Libra Moon. The Full Moon is a time of culmination and the promise of fulfillment of that which was started at the New Moon. It is an emotional time – a time of romance, fertilization, and relationships.

The Aries-Libra polarity is a relationship axis, where Aries represents “self” and Libra represents “other”. Where Aries is about self-assertion, Libra is about compromise. The energy of the Libra Moon is the awareness of the need for relationships and all that comes with maintaining them — compromising, negotiating, graciousness, and balancing. The Aries Sun, on the other hand, is self-assertive, leading, and personally courageous.

This Full Moon urges us to strike a balance between meeting our personal needs and tending to the needs of a significant other, and between independence or autonomy and dependence or companionability. The Libra Moon is diplomatic, equality-minded, and fair-minded. The Aries Sun, however, values authenticity over tact and is energized by independent efforts. The Full Moon illuminates this conflict.

This Full Moon occurs in the final degree of the sign of Libra. This is the second Full Moon in Libra–the first one happened in the first degree of the sign on March 20th. The Sun is heading towards an alignment with Uranus in Taurus. More well-formed revelations about our independence, need for others, and partnerships can happen now, perhaps with the final word or decisive revelations on a matter.

This phase of the Moon occurs at 29 degrees and 7 minutes of Libra, affecting people born with personal planets and points at approximately 25 to 30 degrees of the Cardinal signs (Aries, Cancer, Libra, and Capricorn) and 0 to 3 degrees of the Fixed signs (Taurus, Leo, Scorpio, and Aquarius) most significantly.
