Blue Moon 31 March 2018

by Good Witches Homestead

The full moon on Saturday, March 31, 2018, at 10° Libra is a blue moon because it is the second full moon of the calendar month. The Blue Moon March 2018 astrology chart has eight challenging red aspects and one helpful blue aspect. Full Moon March 2018 is a blue moon in every sense of the word.

And so, at 4:30 am on the morning of the solstice we got up and were dismayed to find that it was overcast and drizzling.
