Today the lunar goddess is full, illuminating herself in Aquarius for the second of back to back Full Moons in this energy. The Sun reaches its critical degree in Leo forcing us to embody all the strengths and confidence of the Lion under the Full Moon’s illumination (exerting our individual identities), while the full moon in Aquarius will highlight where we are aligned with new ideas, visions, dreams, and where our individual vibration is pouring into the collective.
Aquarius energy is represented by the water bearer. Many people confuse Aquarius with being a water sign, when in fact Aquarius is an air sign. Aquarian energy funnels the divine knowledge from the cosmos into our earthly consciousness. Knowledge and information flows from our higher selves into our physical forms to awaken us to new ideas and revelations.
The full moon wants to illuminate what we need to let go of and surrender to. Aquarius wants us to let go of old ways of thinking and acting. This out-of-the-box problem solver is rebellious in nature showing us where we’ve been feeling trapped or held back. Aquarian energy represent the conscious collective, bringing to light new ways of unifying with one another for the greater good of humanity. This full moon in Aquarius wants to liberate us from old constructs and paradigms that no longer support the awakening of the grander collective.
Aquarius is ruled over by Uranus who essentially has rulership over this particular lunar event. Uranus rules over shock and awe, huge insights and revelation, and over the central nervous system in our physical bodies. There is a certain emotional detachment that comes with the aquarian energy, providing us with a non-emotional response to information we receive. Aquarian energy is the higher intellect connected to the cosmos, which downloads our earthly mental planes with hidden information deep from our subconscious self.
This is a time for huge perspective changing shifts. This is a time of awakening to new ideas and thoughts. We are being encouraged to examine the foundations in our lives that seem shakey and unstable to see where we ether need to do more work to strengthen those foundations or let them fall away entirely.
With any moon event, our darker emotions tend to rise to the surface for acknowledgement and integration. Often, we can learn more about ourselves and our true desires for the future, by recognizing what we no longer feel in alignment with or attached to.
Because this Full moon is the second of two Full Moons in Aquarius (this hasn’t happened since 2002) it’s especially unique and intense and the electricity in the air is quite palpable. Be gentle with yourself as you reposition yourself in the world. Carefully consider the new perspectives being revealed to you and rethink your plans moving forward. Practice grounding techniques to try and minimize the ascension symptoms that occur when large amounts of energy and lightcodes are being received in our earth’s atmosphere. It is a highly charged lunar event leading into a very eye opening and spiritually activated week ahead.
