Buckle up, fellow Astro nerds! The Aquarius Full Moon is coming in HOT this month, and it's ready to shake things up again BIG time. If you thought the universe was going to be nice and give us a quiet little full moon in Aquairus after TWO big full moons in Capricorn last month—think again.

So What’s the Big Deal About this Full Moon in particular?
Think of this Full Moon as the universe’s version of a cosmic wake-up TF UP call—with a side of what the actual fudge nuggets is happening here!? If you've been playing out your own version of ground hog day over these past few years then this moon is here to BREAK YOU OUT of the cycles that are holding you BACK. It’s here to help you get out of your RUT and to take charge on what lights you up, whether you like it or not!
If you've been dreaming about creating something magickal in your own life then this moon is here to say it's time to actually DO something about it!
This is one of those full moons that absolutely and irrevocably WILL change your LIFE. It’s not even a possibility it’s a certainty!
The Cosmic Energy at Play—Why This Full Moon Is So Intense
Not only is this full moon in an exact MAJOR square with the modern ruler of the sign of Aquarius—Uranus—but at the same time the ancient ruler of Aquairius—Saturn is in an extreme T-Square aspect with Jupiter and Mars in Gemini as well as Venus in Virgo.
Square aspects in Astrology signify moments that call for drastic and dramatic change in an individuals life and T-Squares (which are made up of two 90 degree square angles and one 180 degree opposition) amplify that energy BIG TIME! It is basically an evolutionary soul push from the cosmos for you to make the necessary changes required to bring balance, order and harmony into a particular area of a persons life—i.e Squares between Taurus and Leo ask us to consider the connection between our passions—what we truly LOVE to do and the skills that we must learn in order to make a living off of doing that. Fixed T-Squares are extremely stubborn energy so this moon has us working through some situations in our lives that we've put off for a long, long time...
Now, not only is the T-Square between the Sun, Moon and Uranus highly activated over this lunation but to have another POTENT T-Square in it's full affect-between Saturn in Pisces, Jupiter and Mars in Gemini and Venus in Virgo. Talk about feeling as though we're locked inside of a PRESSURE COOKER right now. One T-Square aspect during a full moon is a big deal but for TWO major and exact T-Squares to be revealing themselves over this moon means that each one of us has ALOT of work to do in cleaning up some of the problems and issues that have been arising in our personal lives since Saturn made his first conjunction with Jupiter on December 21st of 2020.
This is our first square to the major conjuntion that humanity had not witnessed in the sign of Aquarius since 1623 which signifies that THIS WEEK in particular is a POWERFUL week full of potent transition. Anything could happen over this moon, break ups, make ups, major moves and anything in between!
These POWERFUL squares to Uranus and Saturn over this lunation are absolutely going to be the catalyst for some of the biggest shifts we have taken in our lives all year!
This full moon represents the collectives deep rooted desire to make a radical shift in the ways in which we are engaging with this reality. This is the moon where we realise what it is actually going to take for us to reach the destination we've been subconciously reaching for since 2020. This is the moon that is asking fo us to finally take ourselves and or desires seriously in order to truly manifest them—it really is a HUGE cosmic deal *wink

This is the moon that shows us where we’ve been feeling stuck and it signifies our deep need and desire for a major change in the direction in which we've already half committed ourselves. We've dipped our toes in the water enough—It's time to go ALL IN!! It's time to deepen your practice with YOURSELF over this full moon my friend! The Leo Mercury Cazimi with the Sun we had as the full moon has been building will have awoken your hearts desires—it's time now over this moon to start creating your plans on order to make them a real, solid, physical reality!
How This Full Moon Can Help You FINALLY Make the Changes You Need
Full moons traditionally are a time of letting go and releasing and this Aquairus full moon is absolutely NO different. In Aquarius this energy empahsises a need for big shift in mindset and the perception of yourself and the goals you've been reaching for, especially over the past 4 years. Are you leading your own life or have you been following in the footsteps of somebody eles narrative in an attempt to fit into a particular group or crowd?
It's time to release thoughts, ideas, beliefs, habits and connections that just don't "fit" anymore.
If you've been feeling stuck, this Full Moon is the universe's way of giving you, not a gentle cosmic nudge—but maybe a strongly aligned SHOVE. It's time to move forward!
We are realising over this moon the importance of cleaning up our daily habits as well as the systems we’ve created around how we personally go about achieving our goals and manifesting our desires in this life. We are seeing the reason why certain dreams haven’t manifested and we’re needing to confront the part of ourselves that over emotionally identifies with a mentality or a lifestyle or a way of being that has proven to keep holding you back.
It's a time to face your limitations. This is a “get up and get your shit together” kind of moon that calls for deep personal awareness and self recognition.

So what are some of my top tips for navigating the WILD uniquenessof this Aquairus Full moon!?
Top Tip number #1 - Use this moon to get really honest and clear with yourself about the habits and systems that you've already created in your life thus far. Are they working for you? If you continue on with them the way things have been, where do you think you will end up in 5-10 years time? Will you achieve your goals using the habits, systems & beliefs that you've already cultivated in your daily life? Are your habits and systems serving you? Be honest...
Ask yourself some confronting questions over this moon. The Suns connection with Mercury at the time of this lunation is extremely supportive when it comes to having epifanies, journalling and getting our thoughts and ideas down and organised. Where does your lifestyle need upgrading? Where have you been feeling stuck and overwhelmed. This moon is about simplifying your systems and creating a spiritual structure for yourself that feels both self loving AND physically productive

This moon absolutrely will bring the DRAMA—the emotions are on high, the feelings are intense and this is another very strong moon after two already very strong Saturnian Full moons we had in the sign of Capricorn during Cancer season. We missed out on a Cancer Full moon this year which means that it's difficult for us to find comfort during these times and in all honesty—these transits aren't supporting those who want to hide in comfort, they are supporting hard work and perserverance
Saturn is rx in square to Jupiter and Mars so there is limitation and restriction on what we’re going towards, and with the square to Venus, things feel far from easy right now. It's the little mundane, everyday life things that feel off-putting and never-ending at the moment. We need to learn to master this aspect of life in order to keep the ball rolling. Everything feels uncomfortable at the moment. This is because we have to clean and clear things up we've put off for far too long and we have to learn to work smarter not harder. This is about intelligence and moving in mature ways that really move the needle forward in life. Being busy for the sake of being busy is DEAD. Stagnancy will be the death of you. This whole energy is calling for you to MOVE, shake, change and to grow FORWARDS

Top Tip number #2 - The second tip is similar to the first tip about getting clear with yourself on the habits and systems that you've already created and implimented in your life that support the lifestyle you're currently living but this tip is focused more on what you can actually DO about that now from this moment moving forward. Once you know what is and isn't working for you in accordance with where you WANT to be going - the next tip is to actually write down, create and DESIGN the new system and structure for your life. Use the square between Mars, Saturn & Jupiter to get really physically practical with these deep seated desires whilst the moon is in an opposition with Sun & Mercury in Leo which is asking for you to get EXCITED and to get PASSIONATE about where you're going!
And don't forget to have some BLOODY FUN while you're at it!
Create or update your schedule to something that feels EXCITING, passionate and SATISFYING for you in the long term - even though you will still have to grind, use this moon to design a grind for yourself that feels like acceptance and contentment, even if it's not scheduling in the big task you WANT to be doing right away. In order to get to the big task and the larger goal we must go through all of the smaller, micro tasks first. This moon is asking you to accept all the small tasks that must be completed along the way of creating and acheieveing the BIG goal in the end. Stop and take STOCK of whats working and what isn't. Don't run blindly toward your own demise by going backwards or making spontaneous decisions based on instant gratification and a quick fix solution. The only solutations you should be creating right now are LONG TERM

What to Watch Out For—The Shadow Side of this full moon in Aquarius
The moon when it's in the sign of Aquarius correlates to the collective of humanity as a whole in general. It connects to groups, tribes, organisations and society at large. This is not the time to be in large groups of people with both of these strong T-Squares—especially because both aspects are in connection with the larger outer planets as well as with the more personal planets—Jupiter, Uranus & Saturn with both Mars, Venus & Mercury in the mix too. EVERYONE is at the party this weekend...
Unexpected and unpredictable stuff can go down within your local environment as well as on the world stage. This is a highly reactive and unpredictable energy within large groups of people and in gatherings - especially if the ego is involved. Something will happen over this full moon that shocks the world or your community/local neighbourhood in one way or another. With the squares to Saturn it is also highly important to be careful around bodies of water and the ocean—don't become over-confident in your ability to swim only to drown in a rip because you weren't paying attention...
Top Tip number #3 - is about staying safe and keeping your wits about you over this full moon. Stay careful and stay vigilant - we all know that full moons bring out the lunatics and the crazies - in fact this moon will bring the crazies out of the woodwork more than others with these fixed and mutable squares. Be careful to avoid violent situations, psycotic situations or people, going too fast in cars & vehicles, if you're flying in an aircraft or sailing on a boat and things feel off - DON'T GET ON THE PLANE/SHIP or get in the vehicle! Use your logical mind and use your spiritual discernment to make healthy, informed decisions over this entire next week.
All in all though, just take as much care as you can when you're out and about in your day to day life over this weekend and into the week. This is a very volatile energy that can escalate from 0 to 100 out of nowhere and ESPECIALLY when the ego is involved. Let go of proving your point and become a living example of your own potential

So What's The Spiritual Lesson Full Moon In Aquarius Teaching Us?
Your heart knows the way—always. Blending your head with your heart will create truly powerful outcomes - there cannot any longer be a disconnect between both. It is crucial to balance your inner world with the outer world and to balance both. Creating space for yourself to breathe and to focus on what feels truly important for your heart will help you to find peace amongst the chaos of this week . No more self sacrificing for others, no more hiding yourself away because you fear the people around you will feel outshone. You have no choice now - this moon is asking you to FLY!
Will you allow yourself the blessing to give it a try? Or will you keep justifying your excuses for staying small? This moon won’t tolerate your excuses anymore. You have no choice but to get TF UP and to get moving toward your goals guys!

Summing Up The Craziness Of This Full Moon
Overall this moon presents us with a major doozy. So much unexpected activity can potentially happen and the collective is on the edge of our seats feeling it. Major changes are coming in hot for all of us and we are deeply supported in making these powerful and long overdue shifts. We are having to make changes and to let go of things we never thought we could before. This is a season of tuning into your hearts true north—it's innate wisdom. It's not about what everyone else is doing anymore (Aquarius) its about YOU and your heart and the light YOU'RE here to shine in this world! (Leo)
Spirit is trying to reconnect us with ourselves, with our own personal truths and with our own inner compass that always knows the way. Our heart.
When Logic and the heart meet ANYTHING can happen. This is the most powerful creative force in the world - this is why practical, grounded Taurus opposes the deepest erotic depths of passion and desire in Scorpio. Balance is flow. Air and fire together create heat and power like nothing else. This energy has the potential to either create pure MAGICK or destroy everything you've already built so use this moon is an opportunity to tend to the quiet flames of your own desire. This moon is an opportunity to manifest TRULY using physical, practical logic, systems and understanding alongside intuition, faith and perserverance both to the equally powerful and important balance of each other.
May this moon offer you a profound opportunity for deep physcial & emotional growth, personal empowerment, forward momentum, spiritual connection and aligned action.
So, are you ready to embrace the chaos and let this Full Moon propel you into your very BEST CHAPTER YET!? The stars are saying GO for it—just make sure that you remeber to enjoy the ride along the way!
