Full Moon in Aquarius thoughts
This Full Moon in Aquarius is about existing in the extremities, skirting the boundaries of the usual. Aquarius is always about how we are the same, yet different from everyone else. We are alike in our difference. We come together through adversity, through a commonality of existence. Aquarius teaches us about systems of society with a deep fastidious understanding for the coding behind them. Once equipped with the intel, Aquarius zooms out and ponders how they can hack the system. How they can break the patterns of predictability. This Full Moon might highlight the self imposed, or the boundaries that have been erected by society in which we dwell. There is potential for awareness of things beyond our current vision.
When we consider this lunation, we see that Jupiter, the planet of expansion is squaring the Sun, Moon combination. Jupiter is currently in Taurus, so this feels like a lot of slow inertia. Jupiter is happy to hold his ground and make it about him. Jupiter in Taurus will be adding ideas of grandeur. Perhaps those notions of luxury and richness infuriate us even more now we can see the divisions they create. Or maybe they remind us that life can be easy and full, but how does this juxtapose our ideals of happiness and success? This Full Moon might shine a light on things that we no longer need, those that are surplus to necessity, or frivolous to our new paradigms. Jupiter always has some big ideas to share and is egging on Mars in Virgo to action our beliefs with care. Mars in Virgo teaches us about game plans and details needed for success - perhaps we find ourselves plotting how we can move the goalposts. Long term vision is endorsed by small actions. Micro sustained actions create big change, think habit stacking, daily rituals, atomic habits etc etc. Mars in Virgo also likes to dig for the truth, do the research and sniff out lies; active questioning. Saturn is opposing Mercury too; there might be some harsh feedback necessary, a shifting in our vision, a tweaking to our words. Mercury in Virgo wants the detail, and Saturn will remind us of the bigger picture, the long term vision. Perhaps we are just too caught up in the small things and this lunation will remind us of the broader thinking necessary to break the boundaries. The thinking that reconnects us to our place in society, as humans.
This Full Moon has a lot of masculine energy, because of this it feels quite hard and exposed, a little uncomfortable. Especially since it is occurring concurrently with the Venus Retrograde in Leo. We might have the tendancy to be a little too cognitive, wound up in our thinking, in ourselves. Conversation with actual humans, face to face, might be of assistance to help workshop thoughts and feelings. It is tempting to think that we are the only ones that feel a certain way, but reality is there are so many people that are thinking or feeling the same thing. Because of all the interactions with the planets in this lunation we might consider ourselves harsh critics - soften up! Soften for yourself! Soften for others! Start the conversation instead of allowing it to swirl around and around in your head. Open up. A casual “hello” will do. Since it is Aquarius we are talking about, connection is always a good thing.
