Full Moon in October 2025 - The Hunter’s Moon
The Hunter’s Moon shines bright on October 6th, lighting up the night with its fiery glow.
It is called the Hunter’s Moon because it follows the Harvest Moon and traditionally signaled a key time for hunters to stock up on game before the onset of winter.
The bright, steady light provided by this moon made it easier for hunters to track and gather animals after the fields had been harvested. In Tarot, the Hunter’s Moon encourages us to tap into our own instincts, seize opportunities, and prepare thoughtfully for the challenges ahead—kind of like sharpening your arrow before the big shot!
Traditionally, this Full Moon marks the time for gathering and preparation, as the nights grow longer and the energy calls us to focus, tune in, and harvest the fruits of our efforts. This phase invites reflection on what we are cultivating, what is ripe for harvest, and what we’re ready to release.
Tarot cards that reflect this Hunter’s Moon energy include the Seven of Pentacles, Nine of Pentacles, and Eight of Cups.
The 7 of Pentacles embodies patience and long-term growth, mirroring the steady vigilance the Hunter’s Moon invites. It’s about assessing your progress and deciding whether to keep nurturing your efforts or to pivot—a perfect match for this time of contemplation and preparation.
The 9 of Pentacles brings in a sense of self-sufficiency and reward, reflecting the Hunter’s Moon’s themes of abundance harvested through hard work. It’s that moment of enjoying the fruits of your labor with confidence and grace, feeling secure and proud.
The Eight of Cups invites you to step away from what no longer serves you. Just as the Hunter’s Moon signals a time to pursue new quests, this card encourages leaving behind old emotional baggage to seek deeper fulfillment.
Together, these cards capture the essence of the Hunter’s Moon: a powerful blend of patience, self-reliance, and courageous transition towards new horizons. Ready to hunt for your next big opportunity?
This Full Moon says yes!
So grab your deck, find a cozy spot, and draw your own cards under the Hunter’s Moon, and you might uncover insights about your goals, hidden strengths, or the shadows you need to face before the next cycle begins. It’s a playful yet powerful moment to embrace your inner hunter—sharp-eyed, ready, and guided by intuition.
Let the Hunter’s Moon illuminate your path to clarity and courage!
