Full Moon occurs when the Sun and Moon oppose each other, and this opposition between the two big luminaries of the sky creates a certain unbalance. It’s like we’re in the middle of a strong magnetic field and loose balance as soon as we try to move out.
We all know the word lunatic. It comes from the Latin word for Moon, luna. Someone who’s lunatic is full of full Moon. Restless, nervous, tense, violent, angry. Mad, mad, mad. French law used to excuse a person who committed a crime at full Moon (or at least so rumours say). It was like he wasn’t quite at his senses – and it wasn’t his fault. The full Moon was to blame. Actually, the word mood in French, luné also origins from Latin luna. So they say a person is in bad or good moon, not mood.
It is also observed that a person who’s born at full Moon will have Sun Moon opposition in the natal chart – which is a bit like carrying a full Moon inside you. The person tends to be restless and always discontent, never satisfied, wanting something, not knowing what. But this frustration also creates a strong drive, and subjects with Sun Moon opposition are very often great achievers.
