The November Moon reached full illumination by the Sun around 5.39am GMT (UTC) this morning. Sometimes referred to as the Full Beaver Moon, today’s Full Moon is the 11th of this year’s lunar cycle. In astronomy, the Full Moon marks the halfway point of the monthly cycle, when the glowing disk’s sunlit side entirely faces the Earth.
But astrologers look past the science to interpret much deeper, esoteric and spiritual meanings hidden in the Full Moon’s glow.
Today, the Full Moon is travelling through the zodiac of Gemini – the third zodiac and mutable sign of the element of air.
Gemini considered a gentle and curious sign, marked by an ability to learn quickly.
And according to astrologer Barbara Goldsmith of YourAstrologySigns.com, the Full Moon in Gemini will lend itself towards connecting people today.
She told Express.co.uk: ”The Full Moon is all about communications and how you interact with other people.
“Gemini energy is very creative and expressive. It rules the hands and encourages you to be more hands-on with certain areas of your life.
“You can use this energy constructively by writing, talking through issues in a relationship, expressing yourself through a creative endeavour.”
At the same time of the Full Moon, the planet Mars will form a square aspect to the Sun and the Moon.
In astrology, a square aspect is formed by two celestial bodies positioned three signs, or 90-degrees, from another.
As a result of this celestial alignment, Ms Goldsmith thinks, you might feel some discord or disharmony.
She said: “Mars is square to the Sun and Moon which may bring up resistance to change.
“As Gemini rules technology and communications, you might experience minor frustrations in this area.
“Try to remember to go with the flow and your everything will go more smoothly for you.
“With several planets in Mutable signs, you may feel as though everything is speeding up around you.”
Just remember to go with the flow, find a moment just for yourself to relax and “remember to smell the roses”.
One last final thing to look out for is the planet Jupiter in Sagittarius.
Ms Goldsmith said Sagittarius is the planet of good fortune, excitement and adventure.
She said: “It’s a great time for travel or for planning a trip to somewhere you haven’t been to before.
“It is close to the Sun and opposite the Moon cautioning you not to go to extremes.
“You might find yourself eating a whole box of chocolates instead of just one or two!.”
