From Cathy Pagano:
“It’s going to be an initiation and a stretch for us to listen to the voice of our soul rather than the chaotic voices of our world…
“While the solar cycle starts in March/April with the Sun in Aries and impels us to find out who I am, the Aries lunar cycle begins in August/September with the question, who am I in relationship with others? 
 “…The storyline for each Aries Full Moon is the Libra mystery: how do you and I compliment each other?
“How well do we fit together? How do we achieve some kind of balance between me and my desires, and you and your desires? 
“…This Full Moon’s energy is enhanced by Mercury and Ceres in Libra, Chiron Rx in Aries and Saturn and Vesta in Capricorn…
“These three planetary energies are engaged in a new birth – a new way of being grounded in the Self yet opened to the Other, nurtured by Ceres’ spiritual realities and Mercury’s inner visualization…
“With Chiron retrograde conjunct the Aries Moon, we can either spend our time being re-traumatized by our old wounds or finally free of them.
“And free to start a new life with Aries courage and leadership.
“We call Chiron the wounded healer because in the myth, he was wounded by a poisoned arrow and, being immortal, couldn’t die. But before his wound, Chiron was the mentor of heroes.
“And that’s his function now if we let him mentor us into a true sense of who we are that doesn’t take away from who the other is. 
“If we take up our archetypal identity, our deep soul identity, Chiron can mentor us so we do become the person we’re meant to be. 
“And integrating our Aries emotional body with the conscious Libra Sun, Mercury and Ceres, we can become the hero/heroine of our own story.
“And that story includes our purpose in the world and for the world…
“And it’s time to step forward and be the vanguard of the future. Let Chiron heal the wounds to your old identity and mentor you into your new archetypal identity, with Love at the center.
“Saturn and Vesta come into this picture via a Cardinal T-Square, a tense 90* aspect to the opposition of the Full Moon…
“So we do have some tension at this Full Moon, but it can be the exciting (Aries) tension of adventure and determination rather than fear.
“Fortunately, we do have the tools to meet our initiation and pass through it. However, there’s another T-Square of tension between the rulers of Aries and Libra which has to be resolved. And it is linked to the Full Moon by an inconjunct from Uranus in Taurus to the Sun and Moon.
“This aspect forces us to stretch ourselves to bring in this new energy. We have to look wider afield than we usually do.
“A new world needs new forms of energy, vision and empowerment. And Uranus can awaken us to these new forms, especially because it is still in a helpful trine to Saturn/Vesta.
“The old is giving way to the new. Believe it!”
