This month’s full moon is also known as the Pink Moon, named after the wild pink phlox that blooms across North America in April. But beneath its soft, sweet name lies a powerful energy. Peaking in Libra, and ruled by Venus, this lunation This lunation focuses on relationships and money; two areas where our values and vulnerabilities are often most exposed.

Slow Down Before You Spend

Let’s start with the financial forecast. Venus goes direct on the very same day, but since it’s still technically in retrograde at the full moon’s peak, it’s not quite time to leap into new investments or or let short-term anxiety drive long-term choices. You might feel the temptation to indulge in the little pleasures you’ve been missing like splashing out on a fancy dinner or snapping up that gorgeous, though hardly essential, addition to your wardrobe. Yet this lunation asks you to pause and reassess. Are you spending to satisfy a deeper restlessness? Use this time to review rather than rush. See delays or second thoughts about purchases or deals not as setbacks, but as protective instincts in action.

Shifting Alliances and Global Rebalancing

On the global stage, this full moon could see diplomatic talks heat up. Libra governs partnerships and justice, so expect to see leaders re-negotiating terms, testing alliances, and rebalancing the scales of power. Trade agreements, legal rulings, and even high-profile divorces could make headlines.

Relationship Check-In: Give and Take

In your own relationships, think of this full moon as a mirror. Where has the effort been one-sided? If you’re always the one organising the catch-ups, covering the costs, or offering emotional support without much in return, this is your cue to address the imbalance. Libra values peace and harmony, but not at the price of self-respect. Some conversations might be uncomfortable, but they’re necessary. And if balance can’t be restored, you may find the courage to step away, or at least redraw the lines of engagement.

A Chance to Restore Balance

This Libra full moon exposes relationship imbalance in full view, but it also hands you the power to fix it. So step back, trust your perspective, and let this lunation show you where it’s wiser to pause, pull back, or perhaps lean in a little more.
