Full Moon in Libra - April 13th
As the autumn leaves continue to change colour here in Australia, we can turn our gaze to the night sky once more for our next full moon! This month, the full moon graces our skies on April 13th at 10:23am AEST.
While our Northern Hemisphere friends might be experiencing the first flowers of spring, leading to this moon often being called the "Pink Moon" (referring to the pink wildflowers that typically bloom), here in Australia, we're stepping further into our Autumn season. Think crisp evenings, orange leaves, and a slowing down as we prepare for the cooler months ahead.
This April's full moon shines in the sign of Libra, a sign synonymous with balance, harmony, relationships, and a sense of fairness. This brings a different flavour to the lunar energy compared to the practical Virgo of last month's Worm Moon. Where Virgo encouraged us to organise and refine, Libra invites us to focus on our connections, seek equilibrium, and appreciate beauty in all its forms.
It's definitely an advantage to live our lives with the knowledge that we are made up of energy and that everything around us is also made of energy.....and we need to remember that our emotions are also just energy!
E-motions (energy in motion) come and go and they can also be affected by what is going on around us energetically.
The full moon is one of those things that can greatly affect our energy/emotions as the fuller the moon, the greater the pull on the water in our body (just like the moon pulls the tides) and guess where our energy vibrations are most active? Within the water in our bodies!
We are made up of around 60% water so there can be a lot of emotional shifts going on during the lunar phases which are of course heightened when the moon is at its fullest. Just ask teachers, nurses and doctors how their shifts go around the full moon!
And depending on what time of the year it is and where the moon is in the sky, it can have an extra layer of specific energy that we can harness and use for our benefit.
So, what can we expect energetically with this Libra full moon?
The Pink Moon in Libra peaks on April 13th, encouraging us to:
Seek Balance and Harmony: Libra's influence urges us to find equilibrium in our lives. Are there areas where you feel things are out of sync? This is a great time to reflect on your work-life balance, your relationships, and your inner peace. What small steps can you take to bring more harmony into your day-to-day?
Nurture Relationships: This full moon highlights the importance of our connections with others. Reach out to loved ones, mend any misunderstandings, and consciously cultivate positive interactions. It's a wonderful time for heartfelt conversations and appreciating the people who bring joy to your life.
Embrace Beauty and Aesthetics: Libra has a strong appreciation for beauty. Take time to surround yourself with things you find aesthetically pleasing, whether it's art, music, nature, or simply creating a beautiful atmosphere in your home. Allow yourself to appreciate the beauty that surrounds you.
Practice Fairness and Diplomacy: This is a time to consider different perspectives and strive for fairness in your interactions. Are there any situations where you need to find a middle ground or practice more understanding? Libra's energy encourages us to approach situations with diplomacy and a desire for resolution.
Cultivate Self-Love and Appreciation: While focusing on relationships is key, remember that balance starts within. Take time to nurture yourself, appreciate your own worth, and engage in activities that bring you joy and make you feel good. Walks in the cooler air, seeing a movie with a friend, reading a good book or organising a pot luck dinner with mates!
Supporting Your Kids During the Pink Moon:
The Libra energy can also subtly influence children, prompting us to guide them in the following ways:
- Encourage sharing and cooperation: This is a great time to reinforce the importance of sharing toys, taking turns, and working together harmoniously with siblings and friends.
- Talk about feelings and finding solutions: If conflicts arise, encourage them to express their feelings respectfully and help them brainstorm fair solutions.
- Appreciate beauty in their surroundings: Point out the beauty in nature, art, or even their own creations. Encourage them to express their creativity.
- Promote kindness and empathy: Discuss the importance of being kind to others and understanding different perspectives.
Full Moon Rituals for the Pink Moon in Libra:
Enhance your connection to this balanced lunar energy with these rituals:
- Create a harmonious space: Tidy and beautify your living environment. Light candles, play your favourite soothing music, or arrange flowers.
- Connect with loved ones: Plan a special meal or activity with people you care about.
- Practice balancing exercises: Engage in activities like yoga or tai chi to promote inner and outer balance.
- Journal about your relationships: Reflect on the dynamics of your key relationships and how you can nurture them.
- Enjoy a relaxing bath: Add 20 drops of any of the below blends for an auric cleanse.
Flower Essence blends to consider during this full moon:
🌸 Let It Go
🌸 Self Love
🌸 Peace
🌸 Help
🌸 Protect

Remember to also consider your usual full moon practices like charging crystals under the moonlight, spending time in nature to absorb the lunar energy, and journaling your thoughts and intentions.
This Pink Moon in Libra invites us to embrace harmony, nurture our connections, and appreciate the beauty that surrounds us during this gentle autumn season. Be kind to yourself and others as we navigate this full moon.
Happy Full Moon! ✨
