The year 2024 is heading for a close, and so is the full moon cycle. The full moon in Aries will illuminate certain themes in your relationships that have been hiding in the dark for quite some time. Aries, a cardinal sign ruled by the planet Mars, is the one sign to not be messed with. Fiery, impatient, steadfast, courageous, and often confrontational, Aries will burn a bridge to the ground and build a sand castle with its ashes. October 17 will accentuate these types of behaviors and put some relationships to the test, so it’s best to know what this energy will look like and how to navigate through it.
Challenging events occurring on October 17 could include:
- Petulant arguments and disagreements with your significant other
- Releasing toxic personal patterns
- Releasing resentment within yourself or towards your partner
- Experiencing power struggles
- Excessive competitiveness
- Struggling with the choices of diplomacy vs. self-interest
- Re-visiting past wounds that have negatively impacted your relationship
Although the ram is trampling through some people’s love lives, there is the possibility for harmony. Mars is forming a grand trine with the big three water signs, enabling the best flow of energies during the full moon. Mars will be positioned at 23 degrees Cancer, trining Neptune at 27 degrees Pisces. Venus, the planet of love and mediation is at the end of Scorpio. Fiercely heated Mars will be cooled down by the water trine, inciting potential for revelations and breakthroughs for you and your partner.
Tips for Navigating the Aries Full Moon

Events during full moons can feel unpredictable, yet fated. During the time of this upcoming full moon, be sure to evaluate the lessons you are learning and take them in stride. Your behaviors and how you choose to manage certain situations will most certainly determine the outcomes of your future.
