Full Moon Effect: No More “Coward Of The County” by Satori
“Sometimes you’ve got to fight when you’re a man.”
–Kenny Rogers
The full moon happened in my area just around midnight last night, but I had already gone to bed. It landed in my chart with the Moon just past my Leo rising, the Sun in my 7th house. It illuminates how I’m seen, and my general orientation to others. The 7th is not just one on one with people you like; it is also open enemies. I woke abruptly this morning after dreaming of punching someone repeatedly in the face. I woke up chagrined, not because I was sorry about punching someone in the face but because I was sorry I’d never learned to do it properly. I wasn’t getting enough force.
I have a formidable chart, with brakes on. From childhood I was trained to people please and restrain my powerful nature. As an adult I have often placated instead of protecting myself. There’s the adage, “never bring a knife to a gun fight.” Well, I’ve felt the responsibility not to bring a tank to a gun fight. So what do you do if someone stands in front of your tank with a gun? I was taught you’re supposed to go around them. You know what that’s gotten me? Tons of people standing in front of my tank taunting me with their guns because they’re certain I won’t run them over.
You probably haven’t seen much of this in my virtual life here. I’m my full self online. I remember my ex being genuinely stunned at satori unleashed online. He said, “your virtual personality just isn’t you!” That’s because he too counted on being able to stand in front of my tank. Occasionally I have been forced to run somebody over, but it’s always taken extreme provocation. Waking after this full moon I have the full realization that my days of going around are over. I may have to flatten a few bodies before people get the message but I guess that’s their problem. Who stands in front of a tank?
What was your full Moon effect?

I like it that you feel empowered… It’s an empowering story… The strategy of “fake it till you make it” does work. It’s not that you’re really faking it, but if you’ve been oppressed, like many girls were/are, then it takes some practice, some prep, some learning how to throw a punch, to get to the point of not going around but confronting the obstacle…
I get it, I’ve had the same type of training to train back out of myself…
I’m so glad to read this, satori:)
Full Moon squeaked into my 9th House. I’m trying to expand my mind in order to heal my tired heart.
I’m hoping it is an end of a cycle having to do with my mom and after the events of just a few minutes ago, I think it might be. YAY!
Full moon falls in my 7th, so I’m thinkin that is pretty appropriate
And more particular irony with the Kenny Rogers..growing up this was my mothers FAVORITE. She drooled over him. I thought it was funny.
Satori, no way would I stand and taunt you in front of your tank. I may ask to borrow it sometime..
I say “Yay for you!” Do it!
Yeah. That song gets me every time. This was pretty spot on for me. I have a formidable chart too with lots of saturn and cap moon mommy brakes. And, I have been completely stunned by how that’s just not happening anymore. Stand in front and get trampled.
The full moon was right on my midheaven and there’s no more hiding how smart or competent or adept I am at my job to make other people feel or look better. And if you’re in my way, well, move or get trampled. Interesting.
Ha, it hit my mars and midheaven. I’m no tank, but last night I was tired of being insulted in situations where I have to be too grown up and professional to answer back.
@Beth — I can assure you that it is possible to be insulting right back and still be professional. (The grown up part depends on the situation.
)
I’m seriously considering getting my tank-on
Ah the fullmoon hit me in my 8th, lots of drama this morning, lots of things going awry. Sadly I learned my great aunt, who has been a grandmother to me, has gone in to hospice. Strange coincidence, my aunt’s late husband was in the music biz and helped Kenny Rogers very early in his career.
My 10th. funny – other than restlessness, I’ve had a better week this week – no waking up with panic attacks or that heavy feeling in my chest and gut. A lot of dreams that are very long and mundane at the same time – nice ones, involving my real life, only slightly skewed (like a much larger, older home). I told a friend that I was disappointed that I couldn’t remember more about my dreams, because I’d spent so much time with family and friends in them, and they just felt nice – good.
On the other hand, as calm as I’ve been (for the most part), I’ve been smacked with things from other people and *their* drama. One family member started yelling at me over something the other night, and then she did it again yesterday – both times, I’d been feeling great, only to be surprised by that. I got over it quickly, and she was surprised that I was talking to her. We both agreed that nothing had changed, but I told her that there were no enemies here.
Thank you Satori – you have inspired me. There is someone that my tank should have run over a long time ago. I guess that’s why full moons are about culmination!
Yanno, satori, I’ve had that dream more times than I can count. Also the one where I’m in a car and forced to drive but can’t remember how.
*channels SNL* Soulsistah! *fistbump*

Full moon road over my Pluto in the 7th, quickly sitting on top of the stellium with Saturn and Mars in the 8th. The Leo turned fully on love channel. ((blushing))
That’s a major plus for my years of containment and hold-ups have been in need of release and internal permission to let my hair down.
Revolutionary, a wonderful kind of revolt for an old gal.
