The Hunter’s Moon Rises October 26. A Full Moon in Taurus Ritual
October’s full moon is named for the season of gathering before winter. In Taurus, it asks what you want to keep.
The Hunter’s Moon follows the Harvest Moon and, like it, rises soon after sunset several evenings in a row, giving early autumn nights extra light. This year it’s full on October 26 in Taurus, the earthy sign of comfort, the body and material security.
A Taurus full moon ritual: gather five things you own and love, hold each for a moment and say why. Then choose one thing you’ve been keeping out of guilt, and let it go this week.
