Aquarius Full Moon: Slow Your Roll for Some Gratitude Practices

As we approach the full moon in Aquarius on August 19, 2024, We have had this super heated maybe even chaotic time of creativity, me-centric experiences and communication faux pas and now we are attempting to shift gears and enter the fall and get back to work as we will enter Virgo Season the 22nd. The cosmos are serving the energetic influences of Aquarius, urging us to reflect, recalibrate, and embrace the essence of community and innovation. Let's delve into the Major astrological aspects of this Lunar time stamp.


1. Jupiter Squaring Saturn

The aspect of Jupiter squaring Saturn during this full moon challenges us to find a balance between expansion and structure. Jupiter encourages us to dream big and explore new horizons, while Saturn reminds us of the importance of discipline and responsibility. It's a time to reassess our long-term goals and consider whether our ambitions align with our practical realities and how we can show up for these goals on a daily basis. While Jupiter can bring anything into reality, Saturn is there to ask up how we are capable of responsibly facilitating the care for the new reality.


2. Mercury Retrograde Conjunct the Sun and in Opposition of the Moon

Mercury is in retrograde and has conjoined with the Sun for its Cazimi on the 18th and this is all opposing the Full Moon in Aquarius. The communicative clarifying the Sun has just brought upon Mercury is now amplifying a need to examine our inner dialogues and our relationship with our own intuition. I encourage you to seek clarity for all potential misunderstandings especially ones related to self understanding and behavior. This is an opportune moment for deep introspection and reevaluation of how we show up for ourselves, in our relationships and for our manifestations.


3. Venus Squaring Jupiter

With Venus squaring Jupiter, there's a heightened desire for pleasure, abundance, and indulgence. However, this aspect also warns against overextending ourselves or succumbing to extravagance. It encourages us to find harmony between our material desires and our long-term spiritual growth, fostering a balanced approach to relationships and self-worth. With the Full Moon in Aquarius as the star of the show during this astrological marker we must also examine how we are spiritually growing and fostering community in the spaces that are our Aquarius Houses.


4. Neptune Sextile Pluto

The harmonious sextile between Neptune and Pluto infuses this Full moon with transformative spiritual insights and profound healing potential. Neptune's mystical influence merges with Pluto's depth and intensity, facilitating spiritual renewal and emotional regeneration. It's a time to embrace vulnerability, release old wounds, and connect deeply with our subconscious desires. Let this be a reminder that you must always release something to make space for the next best thing…may your next best thing be a truly authentic experience you are calling in.


Energetic Reflections

Amidst these cosmic dynamics, the energy of this full moon invites us to slow down our pace of manifesting and instead, focus on appreciating the present moment and take stock of where you are headed and if it is a truly healthful, considerate, loving and spiritually authentic direction you are taking. Accept full responsibility for everything you have cultivated thus far and consider writing a gratitude list to acknowledge the blessings in your life and how you will recommit to showing up for them or how you will allow them to shed should the season require.
