The Super Pink Moon on April 7 Will Cause a Huge Energy Shift | What Changes Will It Bring?

The full moon in April 2020 will be a treat for stargazers. It will be a special phenomenon called the super moon, but it's known as the Pink Moon. It will rise during the night of April 7. There are many interesting changes this full moon will bring with itself. This is the first full moon of spring and it can be seen after sunset. It will reach peak illumination at 10:35 P.M. EDT. So, make sure you don't miss it.

While the moon is not going to appear pink, there is a special reason behind that name. It gets its name from the spring flower Wild Ground Phlox, which is very pink and appears in the US during this time of the year. To view the moon, it's recommended that you find an open area and watch it rise just above the horizon. This is when it will appear biggest and take on a golden tinge, according to the Farmer's Almanac. It will become bright white as it travels overhead. This supermoon will also be the biggest and brightest of 2020 since it's going to be closer to Earth than either the March or the May supermoon, which will be the last one this year.

It will be visible to people in the UK, Europe, and North America, according to The Sun UK. It is also called the Egg Moon, Full Sprouting Grass Moon, Growing Moon or the Full Fish Moon. We see a super moon when a full moon reaches the point in the orbit when it's closest to the Earth called perigee. A super moon appears 14% bigger and 30% brighter than usual.

Now, why is it important for us? Because it brings with itself major energy changes. It could be the change we were all hoping for after the painful few weeks that have haunted the collective consciousness. Many thousands of people have been lost over the last few months as the global family suffered. All we have had is hope to cling to after all. And, it seems that the full moon of spring will bring new beginnings with it.

This supermoon falls in the sign of Libra and it will bring more balance in your otherwise out of balance life right now, says Donna Page, a certified astrologer in Atlanta to Women's Health. The effect it will have will encompass all parts of your life, including your relationship. This might be the right time to find out what are the boundaries you don't want your partner to cross as well as reconnect with loved ones. It is also a good time to find out what is lacking in your relationship and build a stronger foundation together, one that will see you through not just this current phase but many more to come.

This moon is also linked to two planets, Pluto and Jupiter. The first one will make you feel twitchy and will make you want to control your life, something that is difficult to do currently, and the second one will assure you that all will be well eventually. You just need to have faith and ride out this phase. We will be confronted with ourselves during this time and might have to realign our understanding of all that is around us. This is also a time for the planet to come back to a balanced position and we will see people rallying for each other. When we are assured within, we can exert a similar influence on those around us. While there have been those whose reaction to this time of uncertainty has been untimely revelry, they will also be asked to come to terms with their actions.

This will be a time for us to learn to accept the unexpected changes that show up in our lives and still learn to power through them. It will be a lesson in knowing that not everything can be controlled and that there can be peace when we just take things in our stride.

The next full moon will be on May 7th and that will be in the sign of Scorpio, which might be an emotional time for many people urging us to deepen our emotional bonds like never before.
