Aquarius Full Moon

Align Your Self, Your Heart, and Your Mind: Full Moon in Aquarius

Every astrological season, the moon wanes to new and waxes to full, bringing the sun and moon into alignment and then into opposition. At the new moon, the sun and moon align- the night sky is dark and we are drawn inwards. At the full moon, the sun and moon are in opposition- illuminating the night sky. Oppositions bring clarity and help us to see things objectively.

The Sun in Leo brings our awareness into the energy of the lion- bold, passionate, and highly creative. Leo is the energy of self-expression. The Moon in Aquarius brings our emotions into a more detached space- where we think and intellectualize our feelings rather than express them outwardly.

Leo is the sign of the individual. Aquarius is the sign of the collective.

Leo is of personal love. Aquarius is conceptual love.

The Sun conjunct Venus in Leo connect who we are with what we desire. When our heart aligns with our center, we can shine brightly and fearlessly. But when our hearts have been broken, the energy of Aquarius can give us the ability to see the heartbreak without becoming consumed by it.

Leo rules the heart and the spine- it is our central axis. Aquarius rules the nervous system- sending messages from the brain to different parts of the body.

This is a time to reconnect: your self with your heart, and your mind with your spirit. It is time to heal your heart and come into alignment.

Leo reminds us of our expansiveness, our generosity and our great capacity to love. Aquarius reminds us that we are all connected to each other, and that our minds have incredible healing power.

Acknowledge the past, see the wound, but don’t allow it to define you. Trust that you are worthy of the purest love- and that you are already healing.

At 3:01am PST tomorrow morning the sun and moon come into exact alignment at the 12th degree of Gemini. When the moon is new, the face of the moon is completely dark. In the sign of Gemini, this new moon invites us to communicate our feelings, make plans, and open our minds to new ideas. Gemini is the sign of dual-mindedness. Its energy is clever, adaptable, and clever. Gemini is movable, social, and intellectual. It can also be restless, scattered and indecisive.

What inspires and fascinates you?

What makes you feel connected to others?

What do you wish to communicate- to yourself, to others, and to the world?

Become curious about what captivates your mind. Notice the ways in which you speak and listen to others. Observe what thoughts, ideas, and stories occupy your mind-space. The new moon is a time of creation. Write down your goals and then focus on what is of most value to you. Be as clear as possible as you decide what you wish to dedicate your energy to, using your words in a playful and creative way.

Let this be the starting point for this lunar cycle, letting go of any attachment to a specific outcome.

All things will unfold in perfect timing.
