On August 3rd the Full Moon in Aquarius Shatabhisha: Eccentricity of Emotion
Feeling emotionally connected to the collective thought process and discerning our personal creative power, felt in the heart-space, from what we feel needs to change This Moon is co-ruled by the north node, which shows our thoughts are about futuristic and progressive themes for how we can better society. There are hidden treasures and wealth in our life, if we only know where to look. There is emotional healing that can come now to aid our soul’s evolution towards higher awareness, universalized consciousness that will align well with the coming Age of Aquarius.
A Full Moon in a fixed sign will show the need to dig in and focus on finishing a karmic debt before continuing forward. In this particular constellation, it’s all about moving, purchasing and traveling. However, this is Aquarius moon is different than, say, a Full Moon in a movable sign that tells us we must begin to chip away at something new. Or, a mutable sign, showing us the we need to course-correct or adjust a particular karma or issue.
Sun is powerful in Leo, especially in Magha. We become very aware of what needs to be destroyed or eliminated for our own good. It is in an exact trine to Mars, after all, giving us gusto and energy to shine our light and create our individual kingdom on our own terms. We also start thinking more about where we came from (our roots) and where we are going (Aquarius dreams of a better tomorrow). The spiritual strength and vision felt now is at its peak potency. The constellation of the Sun shows the need to release any emotional build up and relax in our personal power and authority. Last month was actually the true crucible that led to illuminating and managing our emotional entanglements. Now, we must learn to rest in our soul’s personal power and shine a magnanimous light in the world.
Be who you are this month — every month, really. But figure out how to be generous with others, especially if you land on the up and up. Be that generous kingly archetype.
Fixed Sign T-Square Uranus, Sun & Moon
The collective desire for security and stability in the midst of societal chaos serves to redirect our strength towards serving something greater than ourselves.
Uranus frustrates but elevates the Sun and Moon, making them both crave freedom from stuck routines. The Sun is our personal power. The Moon is our emotional security. Somewhere in your life you feel the need to rebel and change of bonds and restrictions imposed by the current circumstances. We might wake up to a shock in how we have been going about things previously. Right now, a new values system is being constructed (for the entire society) that will need to be balanced with how we define ourselves and how we feel in the day-to-day.
Saturn, Jupiter, Pluto in the 12th sign from the Moon: Undoing Fixated Emotions By Facing Our Internal Crisis of Faith
Emotional pressure and losses that come from getting wrapped up in collective identity. If we allow the thoughts of the masses, which are, frankly, hysterical and anxious, to form our emotional state, we’ve already lost. Face your problems and don’t seek to constantly escape, since it could become a habit that drains psychic energy.
Saturn, Jupiter, Pluto in the 6th sign from the Sun: Working on Overcoming Fear of Judgement
We are more aware than ever of what the obstacles are between our personal power and society’s increasing restrictive and negative state. We need to step into our creative vision and power in order to help move us towards emotional healing. But, the restrictive beliefs and old traditions that we’ve been indoctrinated into blindly accepting can hinder or block us from true self-expression, but only if we let it happen.
As a Side Note: Addictive Patterns of Thought Are a Possibility Here
The Venus conjunct Rahu in Gemini can allude to addictive or confusing patterns of mental activity, especially since it is in the 9th sign from the Moon (the broader understanding of a fixated emotional state) and in the 11th sign from the Sun (the soul’s higher desire to experience a knowledge). There is a tremendous desire nature awakening in us that confuses and disorients our psychic sphere. The decisions we make with our time and money could be flighty and fickle.
ANOTHER Cardinal T-SQUARE???REALLY!? ….
Yes.
Mercury in Ashlesha Opposes Jupiter in Shravana & Squares Mars in Bharani
Kill the Weeds, But Not the Flowers!
Mars in bad aspect can lead to picking all of the wrong battles and wounding the very things we love. Bharani is all about our willpower, becoming inflamed with passion and experiencing great lust. It’s also pretty wounded (sitting near Chiron: wounded healer). We need to overcome the societal shame around taking what we want for ourselves (so long as we’re not hurting others). It’s okay to indulge in sexuality and pleasure, in a balanced way. We need to stop overthinking what makes us “feel good” and secure. Mercury, at the moment, is struggling to figure out how to make sure our emotional needs are communicated in a non-violent way.
This may be a time where we cannot consider the needs of others and our own personal pleasure, power and desire become paramount, trumping all else. Cardinal T-Squares can make us feel the pressure to get moving and take sudden action. It can lead to power-struggles with others and the inability to be jovial or flexible, bulldozing anyone who gets in our way. It’s a whole lot of frustration that boils up inside of people.
We must also listen carefully to what can give us the right amount of space and inspiration to transform the structures in our lives and meet our commitments in a timely fashion. We have to get real and develop a routine with Capricorn. In this case, get a routine spiritual practice started and stick with it. Tune into what your emotions have to tell you about your life. The mind can get us to play into emotionally manipulative games with people or snap at others out of a hurt wounded ego. But if we own our power and fulfill our own needs, then we don’t get baited into such petty altercations.
We should practice the art of mindfulness, and use our speech to help uplift, motivate and inspire others to make necessary changes in life. This could lead to wonderful karmic fruits right now.
Be Vigilant for the Following:
- Hearing False Information and Forming False Beliefs
- Getting Emotionally Worked Up Over Trivial Battles or Inconveniences
- Insecure Wounded Ego Leading to Violent Outbursts Over What We DESIRE
Mars is in the 6th Tara Bala from the Moon
Fighting for our right to enjoy what we love without shame, breaking free of illusions and taking action towards a more progressive financial future will promote a harmony between our passionate desires and our emotional need for a more universal connection with this world. We can create positive group dynamics at this time.
Mercury is in the 4th Tara Bala from the Moon
This is where our ability to manage and organize where we invest our emotional energy, on who and what we choose to work on providing comfort, will provide further stability in our path to healing ourselves. The constellation of the moon is all about healing and finding unique ways to heal the emotional body. Knowing who and what we spend emotional energy on is a big part of stabilizing our psychological space.
The Sun in Magha is in the 5th Tara Bala from the Moon
Personal glorification provides fulfillment to a degree, but ultimately makes one search for more through emotional connectivity with groups of people that want the same things we do. The king cannot rule alone. He cannot run an empty kingdom. There must be other people involved, all aiding in providing us with necessary support or validation.
Sun in Leo makes us very aware of our individual power to take on that which we’ve left behind in the past and finally complete it. Fixed signs love to finish things, not necessarily start something new. That which was put aside will be picked up again and worked on until it’s finished. It could involve inner-child work that will help heal your fixated mental states (Aquarius’s fixed air element).
Retrograde Saturn is in the 9th Tara Bala from the Moon: Emotional Fulfillment Through Self-Reflection
We need to take inventory of how we are meeting our responsibilities. By recapping and working hard on the duties that we left back when Saturn retrograded last May 11th, we can build towards emotional healing and feel more free. It’s time to get real and get to work. Start building stability before it’s too late. Our society is changing rapidly and is deeply unstable. We will come to an economic collapse in the near future. We must emotionally, psychologically and materially brace ourselves. Now is that time.
Moon is in the 6th Tara Bala from the Sun in Magha.
There is a harmony being developed right now. It’s between your personal power, creativity and your ability to follow through on your inspiration (stick with it until the end). These qualities level out depending on how wrapped up your emotions are in solving the problems of the world, feeling frustrated that change isn’t coming quickly enough or feeling connected to a project that is bigger than your ego.
A Full Moon is Wide Awake with Aquarian Themes:
- Emotionally solving problems that lead to positive life changes
- Accepting the boundaries and limitations of your mind
- Feeling an emotional connection with a close circle of friends or colleagues
- Balancing out chaotic collective thought forms with our personal inspiration
____________________________________________________________________________________________
In Conclusion…
The Full Moon wakes us up to how connected we feel to the large-scale projects that we undertake with other people. Remember that you can’t do everything alone. We need others to help us along our path in life. But we also can’t rely too much on others. We have our own personal power and autonomy to take into consideration. This month is about balancing the two out to find harmony. You have the power to heal yourself and the healing might take place by joining up with a like-minded group and sorting out rigid old beliefs alongside them.
On a final note, this is a good time to travel (although right now it may seem impossible…). Get a groupon going or something!
