Super Full Blue Moon in Aquarius - August 19, 2024, 2:25 PM, EDT

In the final days of Leo season, the Moon and Sun oppose each other forming the Super Full Moon in Aquarius. At its closest point to the Earth, this extra special lunar phase is the first Super Moon of 2024 and a Blue Moon, the third of four Full Moons occurring in a single season such as summer. As the glow of this Super Moon lights the night sky, our emotional awareness builds. We are called to honor our individuality while recognizing that we are part of something larger, aligning our inner fire with a purpose that transcends the self, creating a bridge between our heart and the world around us.

Aquarius, the water bearer, is a giver of knowledge, an inquisitor whose vision goes beyond the status quo. Driven by a deep need for independence and freedom, Aquarius gravitates towards humanitarian endeavors and like-minded communities. Leo shines bright with a bold charisma of self-expression, leadership, creativity and playfulness. Though motivated differently, both signs are driven to be genuine. 

This Sun Moon opposition is a call to integrate both energies that naturally strive to be true to themselves. Co-ruled by Uranus now in Taurus and Saturn in Pisces, Aquarius has the visionary spark of ingenuity that emphatically breaks new ground and provides the inspired discipline, commitment and inner authority to bring that vision to life.

Close to the Sun and opposing the Moon is Mercury retrograde in Leo, pulling our thoughts and communication inward and intensifying the introspective energy of this lunar phase. This mental review takes us back over past conversations, especially in matters of the heart and creative endeavors. A time for deep reflection, old patterns or ways of thinking that no longer serve us may resurface, offering a chance to rethink how we convey our personal truth.  Are we speaking from a place of authenticity, or are we simply seeking approval? Use this retrograde phase to enhance creative ideas and self-awareness but wait on major decisions until after Mercury stations direct on August 28th.

Shaking things up, Uranus in Taurus puts us to the test during this Full Moon in a tense interplay between the need for stability and the urge for a radical shift, compelling us to break out of a well-worn groove of consistency that limits us. Although it can feel challenging this Moon phase urges us to remain open to the unknown and unexpected, to embrace the changes necessary for our soul growth. Breakthroughs are possible if we remain open to change, are willing to release what no longer serves our higher intentions and with a more inspired perspective innovate how we build and sustain our lives.

A time of introspection and revelation, this lunar phase is a profound awakening, to step beyond our comfort zones and boldly claim our deepest desires for an authentic life. The question is; what is right for each of us? What do you need for emotional health and happiness? What is your truth that requires you to stand your ground even if no one else understands or supports you? In a world that becomes more controlled by technology, it’s important to trust your intuition and the messages of your heart as you seek answers.  

This Full Moon opposition highlights a tension between self-expression and social responsibility. Are we creating for ourselves alone, or are we contributing to the greater community in meaningful ways? As our world continues to deeply transform and we move closer to Pluto’s complete entry into the sign of Aquarius in November, this Super Full Blue Moon is a heart and soul calling to embrace a new vision, not just for ourselves, but for the evolution of humanity as a whole.
