The Pink Moon

This weekend, we will experience the Pink Full Moon, reaching its peak on Saturday, April 12, 2025. While it won’t physically glow pink, this Moon carries the soft, heart-opening energy of early spring — named after the blooming pink wildflowers that signal new life & fresh beginnings. Spiritually, it’s a powerful moment to align with inner & outer harmony, reassess our relationships, & root deeper into love — for ourselves & for each other.

The Pink Moon is the first Full Moon of spring, & it carries with it the gentle energy of renewal, fertility, & blossoming. Think of it as a sacred threshold — a moment where we can shed the heaviness of winter & step into the vibrancy of new life.

Astrological Influence

This Full Moon is occurring in the sign air sign of Libra. Libra, ruled by the planet Venus, is the sign of beauty, harmony, justice, & connection. With Libra’s influence, we’re being called to examine the balance in our lives. Are we giving and receiving love in equal measure? Are we honoring our own needs while showing up for others? Are our relationships mirroring our truth, or do they ask us to abandon ourselves?

This lunation shines a loving but revealing light on the dynamics of how we connect — with lovers, friends, family, and even with our own inner self. It is a time to restore equilibrium.

This Moon opposes the Sun & Chiron in Aries — the sign of self, courage, & identity. This alignment may stir old wounds around worthiness, independence, & how we show up in relationships. The invitation here is to bring healing to the parts of us that feel unseen, unsupported, or overextended.

Remember: Libra teaches us that peace isn’t about avoiding conflict — it’s about choosing alignment. & sometimes, the most loving thing we can do is to speak our truth with grace.

Mars, the planet of action & drive, is currently in Cancer — a sign that rules our emotional world. During this Full Moon, you may feel heightened sensitivity, nostalgia, or even defensiveness. Let yourself feel it. These waters are here to cleanse & carry away what no longer serves your heart.

Spiritual Guidance for This Full Moon

• Release & Reclaim: Write down what feels out of balance in your life — & what you’re ready to release. Burn it safely under the moonlight, offering it to Spirit for transmutation.
  

• Cleanse Your Sacred Space: Libra loves beauty & order. Smudge your home, rearrange your altar, bring fresh flowers inside, or open the windows to let the spring breeze clear stagnant energy.
  

• Create a Mirror Ritual: Stand before a mirror, look into your eyes, & speak words of truth & love. Say the things your inner child or higher self needs to hear. Affirm to yourself: I am enough. I am worthy. I am loved.
  

• Connect in Ceremony: Gather with your community, virtually or in person. Libra thrives in sacred connection. Share prayers, light candles, honor the Moon with drumming, singing, or stillness.

  
  

Because this Full Moon is in Libra, the energy we’re working with is all about balance. Libra is ruled by Venus, the planet of beauty, love, harmony, & relationships. So, this Moon is asking us: Where in my life do I need more balance? Where can I bring more beauty, more peace, more truth into my day-to-day life? How am I showing up for myself in my own relationship with me?

We’re stepping into very fertile energy right now — not just in the physical sense, but energetically & spiritually too. Think of all the things you’ve been dreaming about, all the little ideas you’ve been holding close through the winter. Now is the time to start nurturing them. This is your reminder that you are fertile ground. What you focus on, grows. What you speak into, blooms. Keep in mind your energy might matter more than you realize!
