One of the many questions I get as an Astrologer is, “What does it mean for those born during a Full Moon?”

Normally a mother will forget a birth time, or sometimes even a birthday, but most mothers never forget if their child came during a full moon. There’s something eery about it that makes her remember forever, and then tell her child, so said child can live their whole life feeling like a werewolf.

But it’s not as crazy or interesting as you might think. Well, YOU are interesting, but I’d say there are more dynamic aspects that create werewolves, not necessarily the Full Moon Birthday.

When a Full Moon occurs, it’s because the Sun and Moon are on opposite sides of the earth. In your birth chart, its pretty much the same thing.

If your Sun sign is Cancer, and the Moon hits Cancer’s opposing sign Capricorn at a close degree, there will be a full moon. If your Sun sign is Aries, and your moon hits Libra? Full Moon.

Here are the signs of the Zodiac and their opposites. The Sun/Moon can be in either sign, and they will still be opposites:

Aries/Libra
Taurus/Scorpio
Gemini/Sagittarius
Cancer/Capricorn
Leo/Aquarius
Virgo/Pisces

In Astrology, the Sun sign represents the Ego/Essence of a person, and the Moon sign represents the Emotional Mind/Emotional Nature of a person. Having them on opposite ends creates a disconnect between the two. Often times feeling like a constant battle between the head and the heart.

The Sun sign also represents the person’s Father, and the Moon is their Mother. So knowing that these two forces are on opposite ends, means you grew up with two very different parents.

Like with any Opposition, balance will be your way of surviving your Full Moon birthday. Finding the House and Sign of both Sun and Moon and learning how to make them compromise, will help that balance. You can go here for your birth chart. 

Here is some stream of consciousness about those born on a Full Moon:

You might have a hard time balancing your emotions with your ego. You seem to be eternally dancing between your head and heart. Your mother might have never been able to give you what you needed, or was it your father? They both wanted different things for you anyway. They were after all, very different people. Learning balance within yourself, will help you become a complete person. Lessons will be learned though your relationships with others. You never feel fully satisfied (like a werewolf?) Indecisive. Unstable. Lack of focus. Strong. Open. Well-rounded. Conflicting. Interesting. Mature when young. Immature when old. Internal struggles. Flip-flopper. Understanding. Complex. Nocturnal. Mysterious. Creative.
