The biggest supermoon of the year happens on Thursday morning. It’s the first full moon of fall, the first lunation since eclipse season, and is the biggest and brightest moon this year. 

This moon is known as the Hunter's Moon because this is the time of year when Native American tribes would be hunting, and stocking up on meat for the winter. Although we don't need to go hunting and gathering as much these days, this is still a great time to get ready for the winter months. 

With this Full Moon in Aries, you'll probably feel the urge to prepare for winter too. As a fire sign, Aries brings the fire and assertive, "get shit done" energy. It's the first sign of the zodiac and brings new beginnings. This full moon in Aries is all about you. This is the time to put yourself first; consider it as filling your cup before helping others. 

What makes this full moon so intense is that it’s part of a Cardinal Grand Cross. A Cardinal Grand Cross looks like an X on a chart. It happens when 4 planets in cardinal signs form squares and oppositions.

The Cardinal signs are the signs that mark the start of each season and zodiac phase. They bring in the energy of new beginnings and fresh starts. When they are in a Grand Cross like this, you’ll feel like you must take immediate action. Everything is going to feel urgent.

The Cardinal Grand Cross pushes us to make changes in areas where we've felt stuck. We’ll feel like we must confront what’s not working in our lives and fix it now.  We want to channel all this energy - that is so strong and full of potential - into doing something constructive and taking action.
