We are now just a matter of a few days away from the Full Moon. Increasingly this will lead to conditions of tense nervous restlessness with the possibility of extremes of mood and circumstance. Indeed for some this period may constitute a time of crisis with runaway emotions that may be hard to control.

For those of a sensitive disposition this could represent an especially trying period with coping strategies tested to the maximum.

In some cases feelings may reach an overwhelming extent with intense fears and forebodings as well as an unexplained dread that could lead to a debilitating state of mind. Other likely mood traits at this time include agitated, apprehensive, and insecure inclinations where problems assume monumental proportions.

As with any immediate Full Moon situation there is also a great potential for aggressive and confrontational attitudes that may ignite major arguments over the most trivial of matters.

Under these circumstances vulnerable relationships may undergo a particularly testing period, and where arguments do develop there may be little restraint in what is said or done.

The more positive side to this current mood atmosphere is one of intense natural energy. Balanced correctly this can encourage prodigious output and enterprise, with high creativity and the ability to work for very long periods to very high standards of efficiency. At the same time there may be a strong rush of adrenaline, and its worthy of mention that the effects of caffeine will be greatly heightened at this time. This is important to note because ones average daily consumption may in these circumstances lead to highly nervy moods with erratic swings of emotion..

Coming days are likely to see a further heightening of feelings, and it will very much depend on ones character whether this is for better or for worse. Emotionally vulnerable personalities may suffer, by the same token that more adventurous individuals soak in the energy of an atmosphere well geared to achieve beyond the ordinary.

To some extent the harsher elements of the Full Moon will be balanced by other more sensitive and delicate emotions. No Full Moon is ever quite the same, and this one has the potential to mix gentler and more expansive feelings, with all the other more characteristic emotions mentioned above.

In common with previous days this mood atmosphere is still likely to see insular, self absorbed inclinations that may not relate well to the needs of others. This may create situations of aloof indifference or feelings of isolation, loneliness, or excessive self indulgence in escapist tendencies.

There is no doubt that for some this will come to be an extremely difficult period. On the other hand it offers the potential to seize opportunities that may not otherwise have been apparent.
