The Aries Super Full Moon rises in the southern sky this Tuesday afternoon 7 October 2025, 4:48 p.m. (NZDT), glowing with fierce brilliance and awakening our inner fire. This lunation is a cosmic ignition point, urging us to act with courage, confidence, and authenticity.

The Spirit of Aries

Aries, the first sign of the zodiac, is the sacred initiator — the one who dares to begin. She teaches us to trust our instincts, follow our excitement, and act upon what stirs the soul. Under her light, we remember that beginnings are holy, and that courage is the key that unlocks creation.

Ruled by Mars, Aries energy is pure life force — the pulse that drives creation, passion, and protection. It is the fire that defends the innocent, creates art from chaos, and takes a stand for truth. Though often mistaken for aggression, Aries’ true heart is sensitive and noble. She fights not for power, but for purpose.

As this Full Moon peaks, we are invited to honour the flame within — the spark that calls us forward into action, healing, and authenticity. Let it remind you of your own divine fire: bold, creative, and eternally alive.

Ritual Theme: Rekindling Your Flame

You will need:
A red, orange, or gold candle (your rekindling flame)
Matches or lighter
A journal and pen
Your tarot or oracle deck
A small piece of paper for your symbol or word
A safe fire-proof dish or cauldron
Optional: Fire element essential oils (cinnamon, clove, frankincense, or ginger), and an altar space adorned with red, gold, and natural fire symbols (sunstones, feathers, or imagery of flame and light).

Ritual Steps

1. Ground & Centre

Begin by taking a few deep breaths. Feel your body rooted into the earth beneath you. Breathe in strength, exhale any tension. Imagine yourself grounded and held by the Earth’s steady energy.

2. Awaken the Flame Within

Close your eyes and bring awareness to your solar plexus — the seat of your willpower and confidence. Visualise a small, golden flame flickering there. With every breath, feel it grow brighter and warmer until its light fills your entire body. Recognise this as your life spark — your sacred essence, connected to the divine fire that fuels stars, suns, and souls alike. 

When ready, light your candle and say this Invocation of the Flame.

“The fire that lights the sun and stars is the same fire that lights my life.
I call upon this divine energy to rekindle my inner flame —
May its light inspire and sustain me.
May it illuminate my path and clarify my passion.
I hereby rekindle my flame.”

Sit with the flame for a few moments, breathing in its energy.

3. The Writing Practice

Take your journal and reflect on the following:
Three things that fire you up — what makes you feel alive?
Three things you would fight for — what do you fiercely protect or believe in?
One thing you would do if you knew you would succeed.

Allow yourself to write freely, with no self-judgment. Aries energy loves honesty, boldness, and action.

4. The Tarot Practice — “Rekindle Your Flame” Card Spread

When ready, shuffle your deck and ask: “What message does the Aries Full Moon hold for me?”

Then lay out the cards as follows:
The Spark – What is reigniting within me now?
The Block – What stands in the way of my passion or courage?
The Fire Within – What inner strength or quality is ready to rise?
The Action – What step can I take to embody my renewed energy?
The Flame’s Message – Guidance from Spirit or your higher self for the path ahead.

Observe any symbols, colours, or emotions that arise. Write down what stands out.

5. Set Your Intention

From your reading or writing practice, choose one symbol, word, or phrase that captures your Aries full moon message. Draw or write it on your small piece of paper — don’t overthink or censor it. Hold it over your flame and say: “I release this into the sacred fire. May its energy transform and return to me renewed.” Burn the paper safely, letting the ashes fall into your fire-proof dish. When cooled, take them outside and scatter them to the wind — releasing your intention into the world.

6. Ongoing Practice

Place your rekindling candle on your altar. For the next seven days, light it daily and repeat the invocation: “The fire that lights the sun and stars is the same fire that lights my life…” As you do, meditate on your word or symbol, journal your insights, and notice how energy begins to move — new ideas, renewed confidence, or surprising clarity may arise.

Closing Blessing

“May my flame burn bright with courage and creativity.
May passion guide my steps and truth anchor my heart.
I honour the sacred fire within me —
Eternal, radiant, and free.”

After Care — Tending the Flame

After working with Aries fire, it’s important to ground and nurture yourself. Fire energy can stir deep emotion, insight, and motivation, and while this can feel exhilarating, it’s equally vital to rest and integrate what’s been awakened. 

Spend some quiet time outdoors. Stand barefoot on the earth, feel the wind on your face, or place your hands on a tree trunk. Let nature help you anchor the energy you’ve raised. Drink plenty of water and eat grounding foods — root vegetables, grains, or anything warm and comforting. Fire transforms, but water and earth sustain.

Remember, transformation doesn’t need to be constant action. Allow yourself a day or two to simply be — to absorb what has shifted, and trust that your new direction will unfold naturally.
