Aquarius, The visionary of Astrology, looks for the best of
outcomes and strives to produce them. On
August 18th, 2016, the visionary power of Aquarius will match itself
to the nurturing, emotional energy of the Moon.
The coupling of the sign of Aquarius to the planet of Moon will present
you with the question of what are ideals conditions will best meet your needs?
The Moon represents ones basic needs; food, shelter,
support, security. It doesn’t tend to
dwell on anything beyond such immediate concerns, deeming the pursuit of these
basics significant enough. On the other hand, Aquarius doesn’t do well emotions
that Moon inhabits. An idealistic and radical sign, it’s likely to change an
entire lifestyle the way someone might change socks. With the Moon being suffused with the far sighted
energies of Aquarius, looking ahead to that which you and your loved ones may
require will be of the utmost importance at this time. It’s not enough to acquire
food; what work must you do to get that food? Is it time to change your home to
make it more comfortable? What changes do you need to make in the outer world
that reflect the better aspects of the inner? These next three days will acquaint
you with just such concerns.
Now, around 5:42am EDT/ 2:42 PDT we will experience slight eclipse,
in which the moon will barely pass into the earth’s shadow. It won’t last long but its effects will be
felt significantly, albeit subtly. Eclipses, in astrology, draw the attention
of the unconscious mind directly to matters of the conscious mind either by
suppressing more of our conscious thought (Solar) or promoting more of our
emotions and feelings (Moon). Because of
the emotions they stir up, eclipses tend to be somewhat challenging. The
benefit of the Moon being in Aquarius is that it will provide clarity and detachment,
granting some perspective and distance to the feeling the eclipse may bring.
Full Moons are excellent time to begin important endeavors. It’s
a good time to engage in such activities as writing a proposal, starting a
business, catching fishing (the “Sturgeon” part of the Sturgeon Full Moon) and
so on. The Moon, at its peak, tends to foster a wealful, helpful energy which”feeds”
in projects and efforts at this time.
Leo’s, this full moon will ask you to confront the new you.
What are the roles you are now playing? What must you embrace heartily and what
must you discard? This is a time of empowerment, which will indicate that which
strengthens you and that you must relinquish because you no longer need it. Be
prepared to do so in a radical way.
Aquarians, addressing longstanding needs will play a vital
part of the next three days. You are both urged and encouraged to look directly
at personal concerns and give them priority over your expectations for others.
While it’s great to seek to provide an example to others to follow, what do you
need to do to fuel your own efforts for growth and change?
The Sturgeon Full Moon is a time to catch that which feeds
and nurtures your highest ideals. As you negotiate the lofty realms of Aquarius,
draw in that which most meets your needs
