AQUARIUS FULL MOON
Breaking the time loop by becoming the glitch.
2025 FULL MOONS // AUGUST 9TH - 14TH
Greetings friends,
This is a full moon that I’ve been excitedly awaiting, as it has a formation called a kite coming together alongside it. We will also see the Jupiter-Venus conjunction, a harmonious union between the blessing planets, reach its strongest point just a few days after this lunation comes together. In comparison to the Aquarius full moon last year, which participated in a t-square with Uranus and had a second t-square between Saturn, Venus, Mars, and Jupiter formed as well, this full moon will likely feel more celebratory and opportunistic, but that may be found on the other side of some resentment, frustration, or the transmutation of some inner contradictory feelings.
This time last year, I was crying every day and felt so extremely lost. I had finally cut contact with my ex-partner of three years after three months of continuing to hold on post-breakup. I had been living in my first solo apartment for about a month, and despite the new opportunities that surrounded me, I felt dismally hopeless. While last August was full of more tears than probably any other month of my life, it was such a pivotal time in my development and truly was a launch pad for so much goodness to take root. T-squares are formations of frustration, demanding change, and adding tension and pressure to us until we take the necessary actions to shift our course. While they are ultimately productive, they can be extremely uncomfortable and challenging. With last year’s full moon, we were likely finding ourselves pushed out of comfortable spaces that were holding us in stale energy, and considering the additional energies under that full moon, this may have centered around relationships and interpersonal connections in a significant way.
Now, we see this full moon coming together under the influence of a kite formation, a planetary formation of destiny and purpose, often applauded for its unification of determination, talent, discipline, and hope, which we can utilize to propel us into more fulfilling spaces. The kite, like its name, is capable of lifting us into flight, but it asks that we run so that the wind can contribute itself most efficiently and effortlessly. This is a special full moon, and considering we are gearing up for eclipse season, which begins in less than a month, this may be a valuable time for us to consider how we can free ourselves from anything that is creating disharmony in our evolution processes.
I created a mini podcast episode diving deeper into the kite formation for my paid community; in this episode, we discuss the frustrations of the opposition that runs down the center of the kite between Mars and Saturn, and how this moon continues the conversation from last year’s Aquarius full moon. It’s accompanied by a journaling practice I designed with this full moon and the other planetary influences in mind. There are uniquely curated journaling prompts for all twelve signs.

We don’t see things as they are, we see them as we are.

THE BIG PICTURE
Before I discuss this full moon specifically, I’d like to share a Chinese proverb with you that I’ve found relates quite tangibly to Aquarius’s energetic influence and archetypal invitation. This is the story of the Chinese farmer.
Once upon a time, there was a Chinese farmer whose son left the gate open to one of their horses’ paddocks. The son’s foolishness resulted in the horse running away. When the horse did not return that night, the townspeople gathered around the farmer, offering him their condolences for his runaway horse, saying, “What horrible news that your son was not responsible enough to close the gate! This is so unfortunate.” All the farmer responded with was, “Maybe, maybe not.”
The following day, the horse returned, but it brought several wild horses with it, expanding the farmer’s herd. The townspeople gathered around in celebration, proclaiming, “What good fortune has befallen you! Now you can train and sell some of these horses and turn a great profit!” The farmer, once again, simply responded, “Maybe, maybe not.”
In an attempt to tame one of the wild horses, the son was bucked from its back, landing on the hard ground and breaking his leg. The townspeople again congregated around the farmer, exclaiming how unfortunate it was that his son’s leg was broken. “Now you have twice the work! What a curse that your son has been injured!” And again, the farmer responded, “Maybe, maybe not.”
A few days later, the town learned that war had broken out. Soon, a military commander arrived to gather up all the young men, drafting them to serve on the front lines of a battle that the townspeople were convinced would result in all of their deaths. However, the farmer’s son, due to his broken leg, was left behind, as he could not fight. When congratulated for his son’s life being spared due to the injury, the farmer merely responded, “Maybe, maybe not.”
This proverb is to illustrate the importance of perspective and illuminates the value in recognizing that something that may appear to be a misfortune from our current vantage point may actually be a blessing in disguise. We might realize that something that seemed detrimental to us was the setup for a bigger blessing. There are different thought processes surrounding this proverb; some speculate it is an invitation for us to adopt more stoic mindsets, but we might find that the over-implementation of this can unintentionally guide us into apathy. I don’t think that's the intent; however, I do think it’s an important reminder for us not to be consumed by our perception of something’s current circumstances, as we never know what is lying around the corner. This is something that Aquarius, as an archetype, teaches us.
This theme is one we’re invited to ponder through the annual Aquarius full moon, as Aquarius is the archetype that introduces us to fragmented timelines and alternate realities. It is the archetype that reminds us that there are multiple roads to the same destination. This full moon may be highlighting the importance of us releasing our expectations for or attachments to the future, as we may be obstructing our way, causing ourselves more pain than is necessary due to our attachment to a rigid perception of what the “right way” is supposed to look like. This full moon is asking us to pull back our investment in how things are presenting themselves to us, as we might be looking too closely at the material aspect of what we’re experiencing, which may be distorting the bigger story of what is unfolding.
There is a rare kite formation coming together under this full moon, which, while it does not interact with the full moon at all, is hosting an evolutionary conversation with us about the ways in which we navigate partnership, friendship, and interpersonal dynamics as a whole. The kite formation is often described as a pattern of destiny, illuminating opportunities for us to accelerate ourselves into more fulfilling directions and perhaps bringing clarity to matters that were previously a bit hazy. This kite formation has been prepared for by a smaller formation, a minor grand trine, which began its formation upon Uranus’s entry into Gemini in July. But now that Mars is in Libra, we will see this kite formation—active through the 14th or so—bringing in opportunities for more authentic and transparent communication to be had between ourselves and other parties, as well as the shedding process of performative tendencies that we’ve clung to in order to maintain a social position of power. There is a fascinating narrative around authentic expression, alignment, and partnership that is being carried on through this moon that last year’s Aquarius full moon (on August 19th) initiated, and while the story is not entirely concluded through this lunation, we are seeing a more evolved mentality being applied to the themes and experiences that likely tie the two Aquarius full moons together.
I go much deeper into detail about the specifics of this narrative and the developments that we’re seeing through this full moon in the podcast episode I just published for those in my exclusive community! You can listen to it here.
While Leo, Aquarius’s opposite and sister sign, is our individual perspective—life as we understand it through the filter of our unique point of view and experiences—Aquarius is the collective experience. It is all perspectives but yours. When we experience a full moon here, there are a couple of things that become pronounced and are worth noting. With the sun in Leo, our conscious awareness is centered on how we are individually experiencing life, and we are more aware of what feels most truthful and right to us as unique people. With the moon in Aquarius, being illuminated by the sun from Leo, we are bringing conscious awareness to the unconscious aspect of ourselves, which is perhaps causing us to interface with internalized feelings of alienation or exile, feelings that we may not have been entirely aware of. Perhaps we are assessing how we have sought out receiving acceptance from others by shunning aspects of our authenticity, and it is through this lunation that we are recognizing just how unsustainable that is, even if it may create temporary feelings of confidence, safety, and inclusion. We are perhaps having to recognize how the parts of ourselves that have been afraid of rejection have paraded themselves around in false identities in order to evade feeling left out or exiled; these aspects of ourselves may be impossible to ignore through this moon.
It is through the axis of Leo and Aquarius that we understand just how similar and different we are from others. It is through this axis that we are guided to understand that, if we truly wish to be accepted by a community, we have to be willing to be rejected, as it is only through the embodiment of our unfiltered self that we can attract those who authentically resonate with us. This full moon may be bringing up unintegrated aspects of ourselves that are withholding us from connecting with others; it may be highlighting feelings of dejection that are the result of not being invited, included, or celebrated in either literal or metaphorical scenarios. The moon in Aquarius must learn not to isolate itself, though strangely, its fear of rejection may create the illusion that it’s already been rejected, when in reality it is the moon in Aquarius that rejects itself and holds itself back from opportunities to be known in attempts to protect itself from pain. And it is through this process that Aquarius moon creates a self-fulfilling prophecy.
Aquarius deals with self-fulfilling prophecies, time travel, the quantum field, non-linear time, and reality hacking, so when we see a full moon in this sign, it is an invitation for us to consider how we are perhaps getting in our own way by believing the programming we’ve been told to see as reality. This full moon reminds us that reality is only what you perceive to be true, even though there may be ample physical reminders that trick you into believing that there is only “one way” or “one truth.” Strangely, the present structure of reality as we’re experiencing it is the very thing that reinforces our perception of its unchangeable nature. We might view certain elements of life as concrete and immovable, but we only view them this way because we don’t have evidence that they are malleable. Aquarius refers to the immaterial aspect of reality—the energetic program that is running in the background. When we change the energetic program, we give the material manifestation of that program no choice but to synthesize in a way that will match the alterations that we’ve made. This is a time for us to consider how we can rebel against our social conditioning, self-perceptions, and feelings of otherness to reacquire our seat at the proverbial control panel of our lives.
While we might encounter feelings of exile and social exclusion through this full moon, we are reminded that we cannot heal the wounds inflicting these feelings by waiting to be noticed. That is like wanting to watch a different show but waiting for the TV to change the channel for you. We have to pick ourselves up and decide how we want the narrative to be written. We have to take matters into our own hands and be brave enough to move against the flow of traffic. Instead of wallowing in the discomfort, we can use it as a vehicle by allowing it to motivate us to make a change. If you want a different program to run, you must rewrite the code, and if you don’t know how to write code, now’s a great time to start experimenting.
Considering the additional planetary configurations that are active at present, this is a time in which we might see significant shifts in the way that we are interfacing with the masculine and feminine essence within ourselves individually, but also the way that these dynamics are structured in our external world through interpersonal relationships. The reality we experience is a great mirror that reflects back to us the nuances and intricacies of our current state of being, and it is through this full moon that we are, in a way, being shown how we can break the fourth wall that separates two aspects of our individual psyches. This is a time in which we are being made aware that we are both the performer acting out the show and the audience watching it. As we bring awareness to the equality between these two aspects of ourselves, we may find that the inner performer will feel more empowered in going off script, and the audience will be moved by it.
While there are many other intricacies regarding reality shifting, non-linear time, and evolution that Aquarius represents, I don’t have the space to expound upon each of them in the level of detail that I would like to. But I will leave you with this. We delay our fulfillment and satisfaction much more than we might consciously realize, simply because we have been conditioned to internalize suggestion as law. There are many “social laws” that we culturally create, and while they don’t have judicial backing, and therefore will not penalize you for breaking them through fines or jail time, there are consequences that are so uncomfortable to imagine experiencing that we abide by them in the same ways that we might follow traffic laws or federal regulations. The consequences we face are ridicule, rejection, criticism, and alienation. Our fear of being seen trying deters us from making changes that could be wildly accelerative in our movement toward our dream lives and desired outcomes. Our attachment to understanding, congratulations, or the nodding approval of those around us is often what restrains our ability to celebrate what authentically emanates from us, which keeps our creative genius on a leash and imprisons us in unfulfilling time loops. This full moon urges us to break repetitive patterns and disrupt habitual movements by doing something abnormal. We may find that we are, at last, breaking free from patterns that have perhaps manifested through different vessels but have involved the same thematic material, and while it may feel uncomfortable due to our lack of familiarity with what comes next, we may sense that expansive experiences are near.
To truly break out of a pattern, you have to be tired of your own shit. You have to be exhausted by the outcome that becomes so predictable because you’ve written the same story a hundred times before this one. So perhaps through this moon, you can consider what patterns are yet again being presented to you, and as we inch closer to eclipse season, recognize what electric alterations you can make that will destabilize the structure that is sustaining the pattern’s repetition. This moon is a reminder that we have free will over many more things than we might typically consider, simply because we get so sucked into serving the “matrix systems” that benefit from our rejection of autonomy.
Do something different. Be the change that you want to see. And if there are things that are seemingly going awry from your current point of view, consider how you might break the loop and hack the system. Points of crisis or conflict are crucial times in pattern repetition—they are often when we either submit to the pattern and reenter the loop or shatter the pattern by doing something unexpected. Break the pattern today, or watch it repeat tomorrow. You can stay in your comfortable, predictable cycle and get the nutrients you need, or you can break free from it and venture into the unknown so you might gain access to the enrichment and nourishment your soul is craving. It’s your choice.
Happy full moon.

1:1 TABOO SESSION (18+) — UTILIZING THE DARKNESS AS A VEHICLE INTO THE LIGHT
Over the past several years, as I have navigated my personal development journey, I’ve been fascinated by the taboo elements of the birth chart—the topics we tend to shy away from because of their embarrassing, awkward, dark, or uncomfortable nature. I’ve rigorously examined the “evilness” within my chart, the pieces that are representative of the parts of myself I’ve been conditioned to suppress, silence, and destroy because they are not aligned with societal expectations and traditional definitions of “goodness.” I used to shy away from these parts, as I thought that indulging them would make me wicked and dark myself. But through this examination process, I have experimentally leaned into those dark qualities, and what I’ve discovered has been monumentally transformative.
When I started to embrace and embody the parts of myself that I used to reject, I accessed a new type of power. People treated me with more respect; men treated me with more respect. I started to get what I wanted with much less effort. I began interfacing with money differently, and it responded differently as well. Now, when I walk into rooms, my presence is noticed and honored without me having to say a thing.
This reading is blunt. It’s raw. It’s uncomfortable. We will talk about seduction, sex, the ugly truth, the shadow self, sabotage, deception, the morally grey, and otherwise frowned-upon topics. This reading is not for everyone, as it requires you to show up with a level of transparency that we are not often familiar with. But if you want to actually tap into your dark feminine, if you’re ready to break some rules to make faster progress, if you’re willing to forget your usual definitions of “good” and “bad” in the name of accelerating yourself into a more magnetic frequency, and are okay with making a few enemies along the way, then this reading is for you.
Whether you want to talk about your sex life, healing journey, financial desires, body image, seductive archetype, or ancestral patterns, anything is on the table. The only thing I won’t discuss is your or someone else’s death.
Darkness in the hands of heart-centered people has no other choice but to be reengineered to serve light. You keeping yourself small and rejecting fame, money, power, or whatever else you may secretly desire (or simply know you are meant to acquire)…it isn’t serving anyone. This reading is intended to provide you with some tools to integrate parts of yourself that you’ve rejected so that you can dissolve resistance and finally step into your center stage.

ARIES, you may be releasing friends, communities, or social media connections or practices that are no longer aligned with you through this full moon, which may be upon the realization that these connections have been secretly preying on your downfall, or perhaps you will just recognize that you’ve outgrown them and it’s time to move on. There may be a development within a personal relationship (either platonic or romantic), which may be drawing in drama or conflict into your life; it may not be the specific party you are involved with; instead, they may be the subject of others’ dissatisfaction or frustration. This full moon may also be having you release a specific desired timeline for a personal desire; perhaps you will have to set aside your present desires to set yourself up for a more fulfilling future. There may be a significant new beginning happening for you under this full moon’s influence, which may be granted to you through the conclusion of a significant chapter. Perhaps you are calling a new place home or are establishing a new sense of home in some other type of way. You may be stepping away from familiarity to open the door to a more mature chapter of life, one that will require you to rely on yourself more but will strengthen you and accelerate you toward more enriching experiences. Let go of traditional definitions of progress. This may also be an important time to dissolve relationships with those who require you to shrink yourself in order to remain compatible with them.
TAURUS, this moon may be having you set aside some long-term goals or reorganize your priorities to focus more on the foundations that you’re operating from so that you might be able to cultivate more productive systems for accomplishing your ambitions. Your professional life and public reputation may experience alterations through this as well. This moon might reveal to you how you are making something more difficult for yourself by maintaining an illusion of productivity; perhaps you are doing “work” that makes you appear busy when it is really just an outlet for you to avoid work that may feel more intimidating or uncomfortable to pursue. This moon may have you facing the fear of having to be the one to create the future you wish to experience; you might find that there are responsibilities that are revealed through this energy, which may be gratifying to become aware of, as they will likely show you a way forward, but the key for you is to not shut down in response to realizing what is required of you. Sometimes, the path that will guide you toward your desired outcome is the one that looks foreign and abnormal, which may create the illusion that it is unsafe to travel. There’s an invitation for you to examine how you may be keeping yourself busy with tasks that could be delegated to others and simultaneously putting off actions that may require some bravery to take but could be beneficial to you in your development process.
GEMINI, this moon asks you to release any expectations for how you will achieve your ambitions and asks you to instead focus on continuing to travel the path of least resistance. You may find that you have avoided walking that path due to a fear of being exiled or misunderstood by the rest of the world or your social groups; this may be an important time for you to let go of the need to prove your capability or authority and instead focus on what actions and choices feel uniquely correct for you, even if they may appear irrational or unusual to others. You perhaps have been looking for others’ understanding to provide you with the confidence to proceed into new directions, and this full moon will remind you that the exact affirmation or support that you feel you need is not accessible at this point in time. You may be letting go of an educational path or celebrating the completion of a developmental process, which may be opening the door for a new venture to be moved toward, and it is in this shift that you may find that you crave other people’s applause to make you feel more comfortable. There may also be a symbolic journey or a development process that you have been trying to control in some way; this moon encourages you to surrender any attachments to a specific timeline, as such attachments may be creating interference that is otherwise avoidable. This is a moon to break apart any dissonance and honor your unique evolution process by taking actions that feel aligned with your inner guidance, instead of trying to keep playing into the expectations of others.
CANCER, you are likely confronting fears or taboo concepts through this full moon, which is perhaps having you interfacing with the aspects of yourself that you’ve alienated and clearing away unconscious patterns of self-rejection. These aspects of yourself may involve interests or a hunger for something that is unconventional or socially frowned upon, perhaps involving sexuality, the healing process, or shared investments of an emotional or financial nature. This energy may require that you validate yourself and your choices, as you may face judgment or misunderstanding from the external world, which will perhaps have you wanting to retreat from pursuing things that are otherwise supportive of your evolution and healing journeys. This may mark a new beginning or a development in the way that you engage in partnership, collaborative, or family dynamics, which may mean that you are restructuring the foundational elements of these systems to better suit how you and other parties are currently operating. Much of this full moon may be about breaking free from socially conditioned thinking that has restricted you from honoring your intuition, especially when it has guided you into directions that may not be understood by the public. You may find that through this moon, you are affirming your own path, even if others cannot or will not provide you with that same validation. You may face vulnerabilities through this moon, which may be temporarily uncomfortable, but this will support you in integrating rejected parts of your psyche, which will likely allow your intuitive body to speak to you more clearly.
LEO, through this full moon, you may find yourself celebrating a development in your romantic life or long-term commitments, which is allowing you to engage in these matters from a more liberated and freedom-centered place. This may involve you letting go of some connections or allowing connections to transform in some way, which requires that you release control from the timeline that you may be hoping will unfold before you. There may be matters that you are attempting to reap the rewards prematurely, and the energies accompanying this full moon may have you considering how you can take more accountability for actions that you’ve perhaps overlooked or avoided, which have delayed your progress. There may be assumptions about or desires for the future that you have unknowingly held onto, which have potentially created a false blanket of security as you move into unfamiliar spaces. You may even find that you’ve maintained certain identities and behaviors in order to stay “on course” with these hopes for the future. While it is not wrong to desire certain experiences, this moon points out that your attachment to things happening in a specific cadence may be the very thing preventing you from achieving your desired outcome. This may specifically pertain to commitments and close relationships. Who would you be if there were no one to perform for?
VIRGO, this moon may be having you release responsibilities or labor that you’ve felt obligated to continue shouldering in order to be accepted by others, or alternatively, it may be an invitation for you to release the need for others to understand your actions and expectations. However, this moon also asks that you accept that others are not required to stick around in the wake of any alterations you make to your priorities. This is an important time for you to observe what stays and what goes in your life when you stop holding them in place. You might find that this will also ask you to redefine what makes you valuable, as you decenter your sense of inherent value away from being useful to others and shift it toward something more authentic and freedom-centered. Your relationship with your body may also be going through a pivotal change, as you are urged by this lunation to become more accepting of your body’s present state, allowing its cues to inform you of what you might alter in your material life to better support its function. Through this lunation, you may be experiencing a refinement of taste, and you are perhaps redefining what “good” and “bad” mean to you. This could be a time in which you are learning to be more accountable for behaviors that have perhaps been driven by unhealed aspects of the psyche; you may find that you are learning this by facing the consequences of previous actions, or perhaps you are having some tough, but valuable, self-realizations. This moon encourages you to approach your development process from a more neutral place so that you might not allow self-criticism to slow your growth.
LIBRA, you may be making some decisions regarding romantic matters through this full moon that feel out of your typical character, as you may be disengaging from connections that are holding you in a restrictive identity. This may contradict how you’ve more naturally navigated relationships in the past; perhaps in the past, you have molded yourself into what you think the other party wants or needs you to be to maintain your compatibility with them. This moon may have you releasing incompatible relationships or performative tendencies in your romantic and creative life. You may be learning how to move from a more authentic place through this energy, which may bring up concerns that you will not be met with applause from anyone, but this moon asks you to consider how you may move if you were not thinking of how you’re being perceived. What would you do? You may find that you’ll be guided to pull back your energy from certain connections so that you can return that energy to yourself to be utilized for your personal pursuits and individual evolution process. These adjustments may not be entirely pleasant for you; the shifts that are initiated under this energy regarding interpersonal relationships may be for your own good, even if your making them causes you temporary pain. This is a contribution to your individuation process, which is intended to help you unite with your authentic self so that you might ultimately forge connections that will help you become more yourself, instead of requiring you to be less to remain compatible with them.
SCORPIO, this full moon is likely an invitation for you to leave behind something that you’ve known so that you can move in a direction that feels more compatible with your authentic path. While there may be a deeper, inner feeling that is affirming you are doing the right thing, this may bring up feelings of discomfort as you may be acting in ways that contradict your typical ways of being. You may be defying how you’ve traditionally gone about finding safety; the changes that you make at this time may create some temporary feelings of instability, and while it's valid to feel them, it’s important to be conscious of them without allowing them to hold you back from moving in the ways that you feel intuitively guided to. In a way, there may be decisions made under this moon that feel like a shot in the dark or a last-minute pivot, but you may find that any shifts that occur under this energy have actually been bubbling up for some time. Perhaps you’ve been feeling avoidant of making these changes due to a fear of social exile or misunderstanding; this moon encourages you to sink into your inner sense and trust it above all else, even if it may seem illogical. This moon may have you moving away from home, considering a new living situation, or embarking on a new venture in some way, which may later require you to relocate. This moon requires you to have more mental discipline; it will be important that you override the chatter of your inner limitations and self-doubts. While you may not be able to conceptualize it, the foundational shifts happening in your life at this time are preparing you for a favorable expansion into a community and living space that will be far more nourishing.
SAGITTARIUS, this may be a full moon that asks you to release thought processes that may be unintentionally distancing you from a deeper sense of community; you may find that you’re making assumptions about your immediate circles or your ambitions for the future, which may be distracting you from a truth that’s sitting right in front of you. This moon is like that test “the invisible gorilla,” which illustrates the concept of selective attention. If you’re unfamiliar with that, it essentially demonstrates how, when we are focusing on certain subjects, we may completely miss others that are simultaneously present. This moon may be highlighting how your selective attention may be blinding you from noticing accelerative experiences that are in your immediate surroundings. This may be an important moon for you to surrender to a truth that you’ve been unknowingly avoiding out of fear of rejection or social misunderstanding. Perhaps you are looking for others’ approval before you proceed toward something that you’ve desired and felt called to pursue—this moon urges you not to wait up for anyone, but to instead honor your growth process. Perhaps you are finding that you are outgrowing an environment that has felt familiar to you for quite some time; that may be a literal or proverbial environment. It may be time for you to discard your need for your peers’ understanding of your movements so that you can shift into a less restrictive energy to dissipate any inner disharmony.
CAPRICORN, through this full moon, you may be shifting your value systems to accommodate changes happening in a variety of different areas of life; perhaps you are letting go of your need to be the one to find solutions for others and are instead focusing on prioritizing your own wants and needs. Things that you previously based your inherent goodness on may no longer resonate with you, and similarly, things that you thought you wanted may not feel as desirable any longer. This is perhaps intended to disrupt patterns of over-reliance on your assumptions, encouraging you to approach your development process from a more curious place, instead of from a place of thinking that you will always know what you want and what is good for you. Perhaps you’re recognizing that, in order for you to experience more fulfillment in work, relationships, and other areas of life that you value, you must be a bit more selfish with your time, energy, and resources. This moon may be proving you wrong in some way, but this may be a pleasant surprise to you; this may open the door for a new foundation to be laid and a new identity structure to be designed. You may be feeling more open to finances being generated through unconventional ways, which may be an auxiliary piece of this moon. You may find that you are embarking on new long-term or professional pursuits, which may be rooted in the evolved value systems and moral ideologies that you are integrating through this lunation.
AQUARIUS, this moon may have you putting aspects of your identity to rest in order to reveal an identity that is more resonant with this current time and space you are in. You may be peeling back layers of your identity and are accessing some core of yourself in some way, which may feel simultaneously rejuvenating and destabilizing, as you may be afraid that those around you will not understand what is brought into the light. This revealing process may be facilitated through the lens of relationships or close connections; you may find that the connections in your life are showing you just how much you have evolved or are making the developing aspects of your identity more visible, potentially due to interpersonal friction or misalignments in priorities and desires. You may find that you’ve outgrown certain things or qualities that you once identified with quite strongly, which may be creating some disorientation around your understanding of what you truly want. This moon intends to set you free and highlights the importance of honoring your transformation process, even if it requires you to soften your grip on things that you hope to hold onto. You might find that you are less inclined to slow down to match others’ pace under this moon, as your motivation to achieve your dreams increases. You may feel an increased desire for freedom and exploration of unfamiliar environments; this moon encourages you to release any inhibitions that have been constructed by external influences so that you can listen for the guidance of your authentic truth.
PISCES, this full moon may be ushering you through a transitional period; perhaps you feel as if you’re in a waiting room and are anxiously awaiting for your name to be called. This moon encourages you to pull your attention into a more weightless state, shifting your awareness from looking for the destination and instead finding the magic in where you currently are, as it too was once a destination you wished to reach. This moon may also be about you bringing awareness to and dissolving subconscious narratives or limiting beliefs that have restricted you from acting authentically; you may find that these experiences are ushered into your awareness through emotionally or sexually intimate experiences or conversations. Perhaps you will have interactions with those you are close to that will illuminate how you have been rejecting aspects of your psyche, which has been indirectly impacting your ability to allow others to become close to you. There may be new or unfamiliar experiences happening in the intimate spaces of your life, perhaps involving other people, and while this may involve the introduction of new connections into your romantic or sexual life, it doesn’t have to. Perhaps some of these new experiences are occurring with existing connections, but they are revealing a new aspect of yourself and any other involved parties, allowing for intimacy to grow. This growth in intimacy may not be entirely comfortable; there may be conversations being had that feel threatening to you in some capacity. However, this is a time of metamorphosis for you, so while you may feel yourself disintegrating to some degree, it is so you can come back together in a new, more authentic form.
