Question
Thanks in advance for your insight! My 33rd birthday is this Monday 6/8/09,
which is also a full moon. I have a feeling this is auspicious.   I feel an
expansive creative energy emerging... I would love to know the meaning of a
full moon birthday, and if the age 33 means anything along with it. Thank
you!

Answer
Hi Heather,

It IS auspicious!

Note that the lunar year and the solar year are not the same, so if you have a full moon falling on one of your birthdays, it doesn't mean that it falls on all of your birthdays. The most important birthday, of course, is the original one: the day you were actually born. The position of the Moon on THAT day is far more important than any subsequent year or day.

Often astrologers construct a "solar return" chart, which is essentially a "birthday" chart. So if on one of your birthdays you have a full moon, that would come into play in the birthday chart, which is significant for understanding the general nature of the year to come, but is subordinate to your original birth chart.

On June 8th of this year the moon will be 1 day PAST full. Perhaps you are looking at a calendar that is not precice or perhaps you are in a different time zone? The Moon will be exactly full at 11:30am on the 7th (in Pacific Time). In any case the 1st day after a full moon is still very auspicious, and Monday being the moon's day also increases the import.

The full moon (or nearly full moon) in a birthday chart seems to say to me that I should look at the condition of your moon in your birthchart and predict that those conditions will be bright and dominant during the upcoming year in general.

Yours,
