Aquarius Full Moon of Unexpected, Serious And Heartfelt Connections

General Theme at the Full Moon

A serious and stressful tone hangs over the August 11th Full Moon.

Saturn and Uranus, the old and the new, creating tension as we strive to bring to an emotionally fulfilling end that which began in our lives at the New Moon, 14 days earlier.

We may be thrusted into unexpected, eye-opening as well as sobering events, bringing us closer to people requiring our warmth and our love.

Gatherings and meetings may be delayed or require new rules to function efficiently in the future.

One's personal vision may pit against the group need for realistic and concrete measures or results.

But listening to our hunches may help reach some common understanding and agreement.

On a more personal note, this Full Moon may require that our need to shine and be seen be put aside to accommodate larger issues within our families and communities.

Our loyalty to past and new alliances will be put to the test. Some relationships may not last as old emotional patterns are discarded.

Leos, Taureans, Scorpios and Aquarians will feel these issues more directly and more urgently, while Sagittarians, Geminis, Aries and Libras will have an easier time dealing with the matters coming to their attention around the Full Moon.

The flipside of the Full Moon:

• Discovering the unexpected costs of sharing our vision with the community and the necessity of finding new resources to sustain it and to share it with others.

During the weeks leading to the New Moon on August 27, a critical look and examination may be required in matters related to :

• Health and routine, for Aries

• The lack of recreation or romance, for Taureans

• Home inspections or renovations, for Geminis

• New qualifications, for Cancerians

• The use - or misuse- of personal resources, for Leos

Leos and Aries: calmer and easier times await you during the rest of the month, once the Full Moon begins to wane. After the hard work, the much needed break is finally here. You will find pleasure and joy in the caring of your physical appearance or enjoying your hobbies and pastimes. Even a little romance is in the air.

Aquarians: you don't have to look very far, Cupid is right in front of you and aiming at your heart. Don't overthink it and let it him in...

Aquarians may have to put their minds to rest to let Cupid fill their hearts with love.
