How Today’s Full Moon in Aquarius Could Change Everything!
Your Guide to This Week’s Cosmic Energy✨
I heard something recently that went something like this, “If you ever think you’re too small to have an impact, imagine being in a small, enclosed room with a mosquito.”
That is the energy of both the Sun in Leo and the Moon in Aquarius. A little hard to ignore (although not quite so pesky!).
We have a Full Moon today at around 11:25am PT / 2:25pm ET, in the air sign of Aquarius, one of my favorite signs (and not just because I’m married to one!).
This is a Super Full Moon, meaning it is in close proximity to Earth and its energies might be felt more strongly by some, but especially on a higher level for us as a society.
The Aquarian energy brings with it a wave of collective consciousness, asking us to think beyond our personal self-interests and to connect with the bigger picture; to envision what’s good for all of us, not just for a select few.
I don’t like to mix politics in this space, but I can’t help but notice the timing of this Full Moon with the start of the DNC Convention today, and how the theme that has emerged from that podium mirrors the energy of this Full Moon (from my perspective anyway).
If ever there was a time and need for more focus on what’s good for all, it is now, wouldn’t you say?
It’s a moment to embrace your role as both an individual and a part of something greater, using your voice and actions to uplift and transform the world around you.
[Deep Sigh] Now, if only we could all just embrace that energy, what a different world this would be. I would be remiss though if I didn’t at least note that there are some deeper undertones at play at the same time, all seeking to undermine the positive here.
But you, me, we do not have to be part of that conversation.
We can choose to observe it from a place of just that, observing without reacting.
We can choose to tune out the conversations of those who want to drag us down. We can turn off the TV or change the channel. We can log off of social media or limit our exposure. And we can instead shift our intentions to the things that elevate and raise our energy and vibration and sense of peace and happiness.
Here are some of the other energies at play:
With the Sun opposite in Leo, which rules the heart, it’s really shining a light on the contrasts between what’s good for one vs. what’s good for all. With it being opposite the Moon there’s a tension there. But tension can be a good thing. Because when there’s tension, or discomfort, it creates a need to shift, to adjust, in order to alleviate it, right?
With both the Sun and Mercury in Leo, it can elicit a fire in your belly towards self-expression and creativity. This energy is all about finding your voice, speaking your truth, and shining your light brightly, without hesitation or doubt – so be mindful of your tongue!
Meanwhile, action-oriented Mars and expansive Jupiter in Gemini light up a desire for curiosity and exploration. They’re the spark that pushes you to question, learn, and grow. It’s a time to be open-minded and adventurous; to seek out new ideas and perspectives that expand your understanding of what’s possible.
HERE ARE SOME PRACTICAL TIPS FOR USING THIS ENERGY IN YOUR OWN LIFE:
- Set Clear, Bold Intentions: With the Sun and Mercury in Leo, it’s the perfect time to focus on your heart’s desires. Write down what you truly want to achieve, and be bold about it. Leo energy encourages you to think big, so don’t hold back—this is your moment to declare your goals and desires with confidence.
- Carve Out Some Time for Self-Expression: Tap into the Leo energy by incorporating a creative outlet into your week. Whether it’s journaling, sketching, or some other hobby, make it a priority to schedule time to express yourself creatively. This will help you stay connected to your inner voice and keep your juices flowing.
- Plan for Progress, Not Perfection: With all this dynamic energy, it’s important to stay flexible. While setting goals is key, be open to adjusting your plans as needed. Use a daily to-do list or planner (or our Thriving Circle Lunar Guide + Journal!) to track your progress.
Together, these energies create a powerful spiritual archetype – a balance of bold self-expression with a deep awareness of the collective good.
You are being called to step into your power, share your ideas, and inspire others, all while staying grounded in the knowledge that your unique contributions, no matter how big or small, are part of a larger tapestry.
This is a moment to embrace your role as both an individual and a part of something greater, using your voice and actions to uplift and transform the world around you.
With good energy,
