September 23 ~ October 7

Your instincts are speaking loudly this week, Aries, but not every impulse is pointing you forward. A Full Moon in your sign conjunct Neptune on Saturday, Sept. 26, brings your emotions and desires front and center. Something you have been feeling may reach a peak, yet with Neptune so close, knowing exactly what you want or how to respond may not be immediately clear. Your instinct is to act, but this Full Moon asks you to know the difference between an authentic impulse and a reaction rooted in something old. Fortunately, supportive links to Uranus and Pluto offer an opportunity to break free from a familiar response, make a different choice, and experience the winds of evolution at your back.

Your ruler Mars enters fellow fire sign Leo on Sunday night, and this is a welcome surge of fire for the Aries-born Soul. Mars in Leo puts passion and desire front and center, encouraging you to take a chance on what you love and put your whole heart behind it. Follow what makes you feel more alive. When your heart and your instincts agree, Aries, there is very little that can stand in your way.

Tuesday, Sept. 29, brings a helpful opening when Mercury reaches the final degree of Libra and trines the North Node in Aquarius. An exchange with another may offer perspective and direct your energy toward what comes next. Pay attention to what suddenly clicks. Then on Thursday, Oct. 1, Mars trines Neptune, linking your ruler back to the planet that was so prominent at the Full Moon. Something that felt uncertain earlier may now become inspired action. Trust what you feel, but keep your feet on the ground.

At the very same time, the temperature rises as Mercury enters Scorpio and forms a T-square with Mars and Pluto in the days that follow. Conversations can become intense, especially where trust or control is concerned. Words can hit their mark, so know what is driving you before you fire the arrow. You do not need to avoid the truth, Aries, but you can choose how you deliver it. Venus also slows to station retrograde in Scorpio on Saturday, Oct. 3, bringing matters of the heart into deeper review. What you truly value may become impossible to ignore.

Your power this week is not in how quickly you react, but in knowing what is worth your fire. Once you know, there will be no stopping you.
