🌕 The Hunter’s Moon – 7 October 2025
A Time of Illumination, Courage & Spiritual Harvest
The next full moon – the Hunter’s Moon – rises on Tuesday 7 October 2025, reaching full brightness at 4:48 AM BST. Though the peak occurs in the early hours, it will be most visible from sunset on Tuesday evening, glowing bright and golden in the sky.
This is not just any full moon – it is also a Supermoon, meaning the moon is closer to Earth and appears larger and brighter. Spiritually, Supermoons heighten emotional and energetic sensitivity, intensifying whatever themes the moon brings. This makes the October full moon even more powerful for inner shifts, clarity, and release.
🌿 What Is the Hunter’s Moon?
The Hunter’s Moon is the first full moon after the Harvest Moon. In ancient traditions, it provided extra light for hunters gathering final stores of food before winter. Spiritually, it mirrors this symbolism – offering a moment to gather what we’ve grown, release what no longer serves, and prepare for deeper transformation.
The Hunter’s Moon arrives at a turning point – the edge between outer activity and inner reflection – inviting us to pause, harvest, and clear the way for the darkening months ahead.
🔮 Astrological & Spiritual Energy
This moon is expected to rise in the sign of Aries, opposing the Sun in Libra. This creates an energetic tension between:
• Self vs. other
• Action vs. harmony
• Boldness vs. diplomacy
The Aries full moon awakens fire – urging forward motion, personal leadership, and authenticity. Libra, by contrast, asks us to remain fair, balanced, and relational. This polarity is the essence of the Hunter’s Moon: choosing what to carry forward based on inner truth, not obligation.
And because this moon falls in October – a month associated with ancestral wisdom, shadow work, and the thinning veil – its spiritual intensity is amplified. It’s a time when messages from beyond, intuitive insights, and emotional breakthroughs are more likely to surface.
🌀 What You May Feel
You might notice:
• A desire to act on something you’ve been holding back
• Restlessness, urgency, or confrontation
• Emotional clarity – like a veil being lifted
• Strong dreams or intuitive “knowings”
• A deeper connection to your ancestors or guides
This Supermoon’s energy may stir courage, but also provoke discomfort. Trust the process – it is showing you what’s ready to change.
✨ 5 Crystals to Use Under the Hunter’s Moon
• Citrine – For clarity, confidence, and calling in abundance
• Carnelian – To activate courage, motivation, and inner fire
• Smokey Quartz – To ground and release emotional heaviness
• Clear Quartz – To amplify intention and spiritual clarity
• Lapis Lazuli – To connect to ancestral wisdom and deep truth
Place them under the full moon to charge, or use them in ritual, meditation, or journalling.
🔥 Ritual Suggestion
Build a small harvest altar with symbols of your personal growth – autumn leaves, fruit, acorns, crystals, or handwritten notes of gratitude.
Then write down:
• What you're ready to release
• What you're claiming or calling in
• What you're courageously stepping into
Burn the release note (safely) under the moonlight, and speak your intention aloud. Feel the shift take place.
🌌 Final Thoughts
The Hunter’s Moon Supermoon is a rare and potent invitation to illuminate your truth, honour your growth, and step forward with courage.
It asks you to prepare your inner ground for the quieter months ahead – but not from a place of fear. From a place of readiness. You’ve come this far. Now, you decide what comes next.
Let the brilliance of this Supermoon reveal your next step.
Let your ancestors walk beside you.
Let your soul be brave enough to claim what is yours.
And dont forget to "super"charge your crystals under the supermoon! ✨️🌕✨️
