Full Moon in Aquarius

General Predictions for the Full Moon in Aquarius:

On August the 12th, at 01:36 UT, the Moon, from Aquarius, accurately opposes the Sun, in Leo, forming the Full Moon. This Full Moon is also known as the Sturgeon Moon.

During this waning Moon period, the Sun enters Virgo, on the 23rd of August and Mercury enters Libra, on the eve of the coming New Moon, the 26th of August. Also, keep in mind that Venus changed its zodiac and entered Leo on the even of this Full Moon, the 11th of August. More importantly, on the 20th of August Mars enters Gemini, where it will remain for seven months, until the 25th of March, 2023.

Furthermore, Uranus, the only one of the slow moving planets that is still Direct, turns Retrograde during this fortnight, on the 24th of August, at 13:53 UT. By doing that, 50% of the planets will be Retrograde, which is a lot of Retrograde activity. Nonetheless, the peak for this year will be reached on the day of the next Full Moon, the 10th of September, when Mercury will also turn Retrograde, making the percentage of the Retrograde planets 60%. We’ve seen worse in 2021 and 2020, with 70% of the planets in retrograde motion, but still, 60% will be a challenge. Thankfully, this period won’t last long. In fact, a couple of days after Mercury returns in to direct motion, Pluto will also turn Direct, and, not long after then, Saturn, too, will turn Direct.

Back to now, though, this is no time for hasty decisions. Proceed slowly and carefully with whatever you need to achieve some progress with. Expect unexpected delays, too, in just about everything. The almost stationary Uranus is very strongly and stressfully so affected by this Full Moon, making progress and changes even more difficult.

The inauspicious influences of the Full Moon:

Saturn squares Uranus. This is a years-long aspect that keeps stressing us since 2020 and it will completely cease affecting us on the 24th of January 2023. Therefore, we only refer to it when it’s strong enough. On the bright side, the square won’t become accurate again. Nonetheless, it will reach a deviation smaller than 1° from the 15th of September and until the 23rd of October. On the day of this Full Moon its deviation is a bit greater than 3° and on the day after the coming New Moon it will cross the 2°. Therefore, the square is already too strong.

Amongst else, this square reduces our freedom and sense of freedom. It makes achieving changes much more challenging. It can also give us the feeling that achieving those is out of our hands. During the previous two fortnights, as well as during this one, Mars will also be adding to this square’s stress, which might make things feel much more difficult than they really are. As Saturn is now Retrograde and Uranus, too, is turning Retrograde this fortnight, we might feel like we are progressing “backwards”. On the bright side, Saturn has been forming more auspicious aspects than stressful ones during the remaining period of this square’s activity. Therefore, things are more likely to be not easy, but easier than during the last months of 2021 and the first months of 2022.

So, Mars squares Saturn. The aspect became accurate on the 7th of August, and it was activated on the 23rd of July. It will remain active until the 22nd of August. This square can raise our stress levels, considerably, and it can also make us more irritable. Bone health also needs more care and attention. Similarly, accidents can happen more easily, so be extra careful when driving, when you are engaging in dangerous activities and when you are near fire or metal.

Also, the Sun squares Uranus. The square started acting on the 1st of August and it became accurate on the 11th of the month. It will remain active until the 22nd of the month. Amongst else, this square can challenge our high-tech equipment and whatever depends on those, or the internet. Thankfully, now Mercury’s and Uranus’ square is not active any more. In fact Uranus and Mercury, as we’ll see, are forming a beneficial aspect that counters some of this aspect’s influences.

Similarly, the Sun squares Mars, too. The aspect will become accurate on the 27th of August, the day of the coming New Moon, when the Sun will be in Virgo and Mars will be in Gemini. Nonetheless, it is active since the 30th of July, when the Sun was in Leo and Mars in Taurus. It will remain active until the 17th of September. During the period of this square’s activity we can get too impatient, or we might tend to be more hostile than usual. It’s advisable we try to control these tendencies. Furthermore, health needs some extra caution.

Also, Venus, opposes Pluto. The aspect was activated on the 2nd of August and became accurate on the 9th of the month. It will remain active until the 17th of the month. Amongst else, this aspect can stress our emotional health and our mood. It can also bring more difficulties in our love life and our friendships.

The Sun opposes Saturn. Accurately so on the 14th of August. The aspect has been active since the 5th of August and it will remain so until the 24th of the month. Health needs some extra caution, under the influences of this aspect. Also, more effort than expected might be necessary for achieving the desired results.

Also, Mercury opposes Neptune. Accurately so on the 21st of August. The aspect will be active from the 14th of August and until the 30th of the month. Keep in mind that, as Mercury will turn Retrograde on the next Full Moon, the aspect will be reactivated and, although, then, it won’t reach accuracy, it will become almost accurate. In any cases, amongst else, this aspect can bring misunderstandings of all kinds. Also, our mental clarity is challenged by this aspect. Therefore, think extra carefully before making any important decision.

Venus square Uranus. Accurately so on the day of the coming New Moon, the 27th of August. The aspect will be active from the 20th of August and until the 4th of September. Amongst else, this can bring some extra stress in love life. Once Uranus turns retrograde, on the 24th things can become even more challenging. Not to mention, the aspect will be very strong by then, too, of course. Also, internet and technology based income can face some extra difficulties.

Moreover, Venus opposes Saturn. Accurately so on the 28th of the month. The aspect will be active from the 22nd of August and until the 5th of September. Health needs more attention under the influences of this aspect. Healing can be less capable than usual, too. At the same time, health issues we’ve neglected can become more demanding of our attention. Love life, too, receives some stress, from this opposition.

Finally, Mercury opposes Jupiter. Accurately so for the first time on the 3rd of September, while Mercury will be Direct. The aspect will be active from the 24th of August and until the 18th of October. It will become accurate two more times. For the second time, on the 18th of September, while Mercury will be Retrograde, and for a third time on the 12th of October, when Mercury will be Direct again. On all three of these dates, as well as throughout the period of this aspect’s activity, Jupiter will be Retrograde. During this fortnight, the opposition will be relatively weak, so it won’t affect us considerably.

Nonetheless, amongst else, this aspect can bring some extra challenges in all work and money matters. Trade and, especially so, international one, as well as travelling and studies of all kinds receive some stress. Communications, and the means of those, also need more attention. All these can become more challenging while Mercury will be Retrograde, as well as from the third time of accuracy till the end of this aspect’s influence, as, then, the influences of the Ecliptic Period will have started affecting us.

The auspicious influences of the Full Moon:

Neptune’s years-long hexagon with Pluto is very strong. As we’ve said, although this hexagon will be becoming stronger and weaker many times, without ever losing most of its strength, it won’t become accurate again until the 24th of July 2026. By then, though, both planets will have changed their zodiacs.

For this year, though, on the 25th of March the hexagon crossed the midpoint of the 5° deviation, becoming quite strong and it will remain so until the 17th of January 2023, when it will, once again cross the 5°, but, then, while it will be becoming weaker. Furthermore, since the 4th of August and until the 22nd of the month, the hexagon is on its strongest point of this period. During this period its deviation is 1° 53’ – 1° 54’ apart from accuracy.

Amongst else, this hexagon empowers magic and helps us heal our souls, and our relationships. Physical healing, and especially via traditional methods, also receives some help. Progress in medicine and pharmacology, in a global level can receive support, too.

Mars is still in a conjunction with Uranus. The conjunction became accurate on the 1st of August and got activated on the 18th of July. It will remain active until the 18th of August. Although this aspect, on its own, is a beneficial one, as those two impatient risk-takers square the conservative Saturn, it can become a double edged sword, so be careful. Amongst else, the conjunction can motivate us to work towards achieving the goals and changes we want to achieve. Make sure you don’t overwork yourselves and you don’t act recklessly.

Also, Mars is in a hexagon with Venus. This one became accurate on the 3rd of August and it got activated on the the 16th of July. It will remain active until the 19th of August. This aspect can be quite helpful for love life, both for those in a relationship and for those seeking one. As both planets receive enough stress and, also, this is “just” a hexagon, some extra effort and some extra caution will be needed from our part to enjoy the most this aspect can offer.

Also, Venus forms a triangle with Neptune. The triangle became accurate on the 7th of August. It’s been active since the 31st of July and it will remain active until the 15th of August. This triangle can support emotional healing as well as it can help us heal and nurture all our personal relationships. It also helps most artistic careers. Especially so for the water signs, as well as for Libra and Gemini.

Additionally, Mars forms a hexagon with Neptune. This one became accurate on the eve of this Full Moon, the 11th of August. The aspect is active since the New Moon of the 28th of July, and it will remain so until the 28th of August. By then, though, Mars will have entered Gemini. Amongst else, this triangle gives much power to magic. All kinds of Fire magic, Water magic and the combination of the two, receive even better influences. Furthermore, this aspect can help us clear our mind a little. Quite an important blessing since there is a lot of stress affecting our mental clarity.

On top of that, Mars forms a triangle with Pluto. Accurately so on the 14th of August. This aspect is active since the 31st of July and it will remain so until the 28th of August. Therefore, all the time this aspect is active, the previous one is also active. This triangle further empowers magic. Fire magic, sex magic as well as whatever has to do with talismans, magical oils and perfumes, philtres and the like receive a boosting. Furthermore, this aspect can help us to find solutions to financial problems.

Mercury forms a triangle with Uranus. Accurately so on the 16th of August. The aspect is active since the 11th of August and until the 25th of the month. This aspect can support all internet related activity, including social activity and work. There are many stressful aspects affecting Uranus and, Uranus is almost stationary and will be Retrograde by the end of this aspect’s period of activity, while Mercury, although Direct, is slowing down. Therefore, this is surely an important help, but, maybe, not strong enough to completely undo all the stress. For purchasing high-tech equipment, if you need to, arrange it around, or on the 16th.

Accurately on the 18th, Venus forms a triangle with Jupiter. The aspect is active since the 11th of the month and it will remain active until the eve of the coming New Moon, the 26th of August. Love life receives some help from this aspect. Social life, too. Also, it’s a helpful aspect for promoting healing and beautification. For the signs of Fire as well as for the signs of Water, it can also bring some help in work and money related matters.

Also, Mercury forms a triangle with Pluto. Accurately so on the 22nd of August. The aspect will be active from the 16th of August and until the 2nd of September. All money related matters receive some help from this aspect. Whatever has to do with property, too. Also, magic gets even stronger under the influences of this triangle.

Finally, Mars forms a hexagon with Jupiter. Accurately so on the 1st of September, when Mars will be in Gemini. Nonetheless, the aspect will be active from the 18th of August, while Mars will barely still be in Taurus, and until the 17th of September. Amongst else, this aspect can help us make significant progress with our goal. In some cases, goals we have abandoned might become possible again.

Overviewing the Full Moon in Aquarius:

So, overall, this is a somewhat challenging Full Moon and waning Moon period. There is more than enough retrograde planetary activity. On top of that, the stressful aspects are more than the supportive ones. On the bright side, not much more. Between the 15th and 22nd the ratio though will be more disadvantageous. Then, from the 22nd onwards, it will be similar as before, but, the overall number of active long-term aspects will be smaller. Therefore, after then, things might not be easier, but they’ll fell calmer, or less pressing.

Pluto is – yet once again – overly charged. Thankfully, mostly beneficially so, and after the 17th, only beneficially. Nonetheless, an overactive Pluto always challenges our emotional condition, so make sure you support your mood and your emotional condition.

Full Moon Predictions for Aries:

There are three planets in a beneficial alignment with your zodiac on the day of this Full Moon and during the whole waning Moon period. In fact, from the 20th to the 23rd, there will be four. At the same time, there is only one planet in a stressful alignment. More over, before the 24th there are no stressful aspects directly affecting your zodiac. Therefore, things are looking promising. Not necessarily easy, but surely promising. Health and your energy level look much better until the 24th. Needless to say, of course, if you encounter any issue, consult your doctor. Your mod might not be too bright, but it’s not bad, either. Further supporting your mood can help you enjoy the fortnight more.

Expenses and obligations can become pressing, at times, but finances receive equally strong supportive energies. Income might be receiving some more help than stress, too. Therefore, with proper care, money is more likely to be a continuous issue, but not a problem. Work receives mostly supportive energies, too. It’s also a helpful period for job seekers. Furthermore, love and social life are not unchallenged, but mostly happy. After the 24th there is a bit of more stress, there.

Full Moon Predictions for Taurus:

Mars exiting your zodiac on the 20th ends a period of planetary focus on your zodiac, but also ends the extra direct stress your zodiac receives due to Mars’ and Saturn’s square. Other than that, there are three planets in a stressful alignment with your zodiac, but only two will remain after the 23rd. Unfortunately, Venus, the ruler of your zodiac is one of those remaining two. On the bright side, there are three planets in a beneficial alignment with your zodiac and they’ll become four from the 23rd and until the 26th. Therefore, things are not easy, but progress is happening. Health, though, needs some extra care and caution. Venus is also your Health Planet and is in a stressful alignment, while your Health House will start receiving some stress from the 26th. So, don’t take your health lightly.

Love and social life might feel somewhat restricted and not very satisfactory, but, in most cases, they are pleasant to the degree that they are active. Your effort to keep them active will be needed, though. Also, work, career and business matters can become quite stressful. From the 22nd onwards, though, they seem less so. Your productivity, on the other hand, and your creativity are quite capable throughout the fortnight.

Full Moon Predictions for Gemini:

There are two planets in a stressful alignment with your zodiac, on the day of this Full Moon, and they’ll become three, from the 23rd and until the 26th. On the other hand, there are four planets in a beneficial alignment. They’ll become three from the 23rd to the 26th, and then again four. On top of that, Mars is entering your zodiac for a seven-month long stay. So, things are not easy, but they are quite promising. Mars entering your zodiac, not only gives you more energy, but also reduces the stress your mood and your emotional condition receive for some time now. Moreover, your Health Planet will stop receiving stress on the 17th. Therefore, health, both physical and emotional one, improves during this waning fortnight. Needless to say, if you encounter any problem, consult your doctor.

Social life can be challenging, at times, but it’s rather active and pleasant enough. Also, work, career and business matters receive mostly beneficial influences. Your productivity is quite good, too. Furthermore, your magical and spiritual abilities are quite capable throughout the fortnight. More so until the 20th.

Full Moon Predictions for Cancer:

There are only two planets in a stressful alignment with your zodiac on the day of this Full Moon and during the whole waning Moon period. They’ll become three on the eve of the New Moon, though. On the other hand, there are four planets in a beneficial alignment. They’ll become three from the 20th until the 22nd. Therefore, things, overall are not easy, but not bad, either. Surely better than recently. Your health house is empty (which is a good thing), but, from the 24th and until the 12th of October, the generic Health Planet will be stressing your own Health Planet. Therefore, health will be receiving some stress from then on. Make sure you do your best to improve it until then. Also, arrange all not-necessary operations either before the 24th of August, or after the 12th of October.

Other than that, finances receive some stress, but income receives beneficial influences, so with proper care things should be, at the very least, manageable. Work, career and business matters also receive some stress, but progress is happening. Your productivity is quite good, too. Furthermore, love and social life receive mostly good influences.

Full Moon Predictions for Leo:

There are three planets in a stressful alignment with your zodiac, on the day of this Full Moon, but only two will remain after the 20th. On the downside, the Sun, the ruler of your zodiac, will leave Leo on the 23rd. Nonetheless, Venus remains there and receives more support than stress. Therefore, things are getting better and easier. Health and your energy levels should improve, too. Healing, on the other hand, is quite strong. Needless to say, if any health issue occurs, consult your doctor.

Work, career and business matters are surely the main focus of the planetary energies. There is enough stress affecting those matters, but there is equally enough support. Therefore, progress and successes are feasible, but they might need more effort than what you expect. Expenses need some moderation, but otherwise, finances look good. Income, actually receives mostly beneficial influences. Furthermore, this is a helpful fortnight for those in search for a new job. Furthermore, social life is mostly pleasant. Not very active, in most cases, but pleasant, nonetheless.

Full Moon Predictions for Virgo:

There is only one planet in a stressful alignment with your zodiac, on the day of this Full Moon. They will become on the 20th, when Mars will enter Gemini, for a long stay. Keep in mind that there are three planets in a beneficial alignment with your zodiac, on top of the rule of your sign which is in Virgo. The Sun will also enter Virgo, before the end of this fortnight. So, things might get a bit more difficult, but they are quite promising. In fact, Mars leaving a friendly sign to enter a stressful alignment is a bad thing, but not so much in 2022. After all, from Taurus, Mars has been stressing Saturn, in your House of Health and Work, while from Gemini it will form a long-lasting beneficial aspect with Saturn, starting in the next fortnight, which will follow you until the Solstice.

Therefore, Mars entering Gemini might feel like a good thing more than a bad thing. It will bring some extra tension and stress in work, career and business matters, but it will also bring power and energy there. Some catharsis can also happen, in that field of your life. Nonetheless, for now, health needs much care and support, while work looks mostly stressful. If you can, take some time off. Love and social life, on the other hand, receive mostly beneficial influences.

Full Moon Predictions for Libra:

This is a promising Full Moon and waning Moon period for you. For one, bot the Sun and the Moon are in a friendly alignment with your zodiac during the Full Moon day. Even more importantly, Venus, the ruler of your horoscope, not only left a stressful alignment on the eve of this Full Moon, the 11th, of August, but entered a beneficial alignment. There are still two planets in a stressful alignment, but that’s few, compared to recently. On the other hand, along with Venus, there are three planets in a beneficial alignment. They’ll become four from the 20th and until the 23rd. So, yes, things are not easy, but they should be much better than they used to be. Health still needs some extra though, for the generic Health Planet stresses your Health Planet, in your Health House.

Healing, though, seems strong. Quite so, until the 18th. Work, although not unchallenged, it receives mostly supportive energies. On top of that, your productivity is quite good. Furthermore, your magical and spiritual abilities are quite capable, throughout the fortnight.

Full Moon Predictions for Scorpio:

This Full Moon, more or less, practically forms a Grand Cross with your Natal Sun. Therefore, it won’t be an easy one, for you. There are five planets (six, including the Moon) in a stressful alignment with your zodiac on the day of the Full Moon. That’s a lot of them. They’ll become four on the 20th and then three on the 23rd, which still are more than a few. More over, your Health Planet receives enough stress until the 22nd, while your Health House will start receiving stress on the 24th. Therefore, health needs very good care. Your mood and your emotional condition, too.

Work can be stressful, at times, but there are more beneficial influences affecting it, than stressful ones. Therefore, progress is happening, there. Your productivity and your creativity are quite good, too. Love and social life, on the other hand, receive almost entirely beneficial influences and look quite active and happy. After the 18th the situations change a bit on these fields, but they still are active and mostly happy.

Full Moon Predictions for Sagittarius:

There are two planets in a stressful alignment with your zodiac on the day of this Full Moon, but they’ll become three, on the 20th, and, then, four, from the 23rd and until the 26th, which is enough – or more than enough – stress. Both changes are very important. On the 20th, Mars leaves a neutral alignment to enter a stressful one and it will remain there until the 25th of March 2023. On the 24th, the Sun leaves a strongly beneficial alignment, to enter a stressful one. Therefore, the first change is long lasting, while the second one will be immediately felt. So, things are not going to be easy.

Physical health needs some extra caution. Driving more carefully is also advisable. Furthermore, your mood and your emotional condition receive some stress. Work, career and business matters receive some stress, too, but most of the energies affecting them are beneficial ones. Therefore, much progress can be achieved, there. Also, finances receive support. After the 17th, even more so. Furthermore, health issues in the family can have some good developments. You own health issues, with proper care, too.

Full Moon Predictions for Capricorn:

Although this is not an easy Full Moon and waning Moon period, it should be relatively easy and beneficial for you. Since the eve of this Full Moon and until the eve of the coming New Moon, only one planet is in a stressful alignment with your zodiac. Moreover, Pluto, in your zodiac, will stop receiving any direct stress on the 17th. On the other hand, it receives plenty of support. At the same time, there are four planets (three from the 20th until the 23rd) in a beneficial alignment with your zodiac. Therefore, you can achieve much and not very difficultly so. Finances are probably the most challenged aspect of your life. Be extra cautious and wise with them and avoid any unnecessary expenses.

Work receives some help. Not so much after the 20th, but there will still be some. Also, your productivity and your creativity are quite good. It’s an auspicious period for starting new projects, or resurrecting abandoned ones. Furthermore, love and social life receive mostly beneficial and pleasant energies.

Full Moon Predictions for Aquarius:

There are four planets in a stressful alignment with your zodiac on the day of this Full Moon. They’ll become three on the 20th, and then two on the 23rd. Also, there is only one planet in a beneficial alignment, on the day of the Full Moon, but they’ll become two on the 20th. Then, three, on the eve of the New Moon. Therefore, things are not easy, but are getting easier. The most important change is Mars leaving a stressful alignment on the 20th to enter a strongly beneficial one, for a long time. Not only it means that for the next seven months there will always be at least one planet in a beneficial alignment, but also, the stress that Mars caused to Saturn in your zodiac will cease.

So, health, although it doesn’t receive any direct stress, will need some extra caution until the 23rd. Your mood and your emotional condition need some support, throughout the fortnight and more so after the 24th. On the other hand, money receives mostly good energies. Your productivity and creativity are quite capable, too. Also, love life receives quite good influences. Long standing relationships, though, might have some issues to face, too, at times. Furthermore, your magical and spiritual abilities are extra capable.

Full Moon Predictions for Pisces:

There is only one planet in a stressful alignment with your zodiac, on the day of this Full Moon, but they’ll become two, on the 20th, and then three from the 23rd and until the 26th. So, things start easier, but become more challenging during the second half of the waning Moon period. The most important change is Mars entering Gemini on the 20th. As we’ve seen, it will remain there until March 2023. That means that from the 20th of August and until the 25th of March, at least one planet will be in a stressful alignment with your zodiac. As this planet is your Money Planet, finances need some extra caution during the next seven months.

That doesn’t mean they’ll be bad all these months, just to be clear. For example, during this fortnight, they look mostly good. Only after the 24th they receive some stress. Until then, they receive much support, actually. Your mood and your emotional condition, though, receive much stress and need all the support you can provide them with. Your productivity, on the other hand, seems good. Also, love and social life receive mostly supportive energies.

Astrology and Magic:

The whole fortnight is magically charged. Therefore, all magic practices receive a strong boosting.

That’s all. Have fun and enjoy this Full Moon and this waning Moon period!
