Aquarius full moon illumination:
'I release limiting beliefs, I am open to revolutionary ideas.'
Full Moon in Aquarius at 6° 30’
Astrologer Anthony Perrotta says:
Soon we will enter the eclipse portal, but not without one last Full Moon to send us off into that ether. This Full Moon comes as a marker, an illuminated pinnacle. It signifies the power of release and finding our way through the tensions we may have faced lately. With Aquarian energy so prominent at this Full Moon, we will have our eyes fixated on our hopes, dreams, and wishes-perhaps even our network, community, and friendships. We have to recognize where we are and who we surround ourselves with and see how that impacts the big picture (not only in our lives personally but also collectively). Aquarius brings truth, unmoved and undeterred, in the pursuit of understanding where we belong in the grand scheme of it all.
Saturn traditionally leads this Full Moon, a reminder that sometimes we must break rules to make new ones. Saturn remains unbothered (for the most part) at this lunation. This means that we can find some clarity and truth in the midst of the illumination of the Full Moon - doubly so now that Mercury is also direct.
Uranus is the modern ruler of Aquarius and will also partially lead this lunation. Uranus represents a need to be free - a point of liberation. Uranus has been treading new airways in Gemini and speaks kindly to Pluto in Aquarius, but also Neptune in Aries, AND the Sun and Jupiter in Leo. There is a very apt understanding that the astrology of right now is palpable, promising, and expansive. We are asked to find innovative solutions to problems that may arise and look at negotiations, compromises, and dialogue as a form of empowerment.
With Fixed energy being the central focus, we must find ways to free ourselves from outdated or overly traditional mindsets. Uranus may have us jumping into a radical freefall around this time. Resist the need to fully stabilize, as Uranus will tell us to upheave and move with spontaneity and excitement. This Full Moon opens the doors to the eclipse portal that starts in just a few days.
A hallmark of this lunation is the famed Sun/Jupiter conjunction, also known as the Jupiter Cazimi. It can be seen as one of the most auspicious and luckiest aspects in astrology. Both are traveling together through Fire signs, asking us to grow, create, and take up space. With this grand energy, it will encapsulate us in its expansive vision, pushing us to have faith…trust, maybe even belief. This energy tells us that maybe, just maybe things can truly work out for us. The outer planets create insurmountable energy, a desire to preserve and be heroic. Trust fall into something big for yourself and what the magic unfolds.
One of the important things to remember is not to give up on something you feel passionate about, but do know that sometimes things take longer to achieve than we realize. It is important to recognize the collective focus of this lunation. The gifts of Aquarius are connection and idealism. Keeping that in mind means that as we pursue our goals, we must make sure we have people around us who want to see us succeed and will help us arrive there. Accepting that support will be monumental. You never have to face anything completely alone.
Aries
ELEVENTH HOUSE
Community, Dreams, Visions & Hopes
At this Full Moon, the big questions are: where do you find hope? Who is there to support you? You are someone who may often try to do things all on your own. But at what cost?
As we enter this Full Moon, your hopes, dreams, wishes, network, and support system all come into focus - as this Full Moon falls in your Eleventh House. Who do you call upon in your time of need? We can't be the stabilizing factor for others all the time. Sometimes, we need people to rally around us too. Luckily, this Full Moon ensures that you have that. Friends are showing up for you, and a dream seems to be within reach.
The Sun and Jupiter align together in fellow Fire sign at this Full Moon. You could receive some good news that shifts your perspective and future trajectory in some way. Maybe you have been waiting for a confirmation or an agreement. It seems that it is likely around this lunation. And whatever it is brings with it creativity and a more joyful outcome. Jupiter will take this to new heights as it works closely with this lunation. You will find that one of the easiest places in your life will be in choosing joy. If you have been hoping to start anything, Jupiter will take it farther than you could imagine. If you have been wanting to let loose more, lean into it! The world is your oyster! You will find that life is easier when you allow joy to exist. Reprioritize your sense of happiness and creativity. Opt to circulate and meet new people around this lunation, too. You will be glad you did! Jupiter is going to bring you immense blessings in the coming year, so get ready to take risks. Nothing is too small, too unbelievable, or too impossible. You, more than most, can make whatever you desire come to fruition.
Use this Full Moon to open yourself to possibility. It is time to ask for help and see that the future is co-created. It requires that you have the will to seek support. Everything is in flux, but the outcome will present itself soon. Things may come and go in life, but focus on the people that remain constant.
Taurus
TENTH HOUSE
Legacy, Aspirations, Goals & Recognition
What is the pinnacle for you? The Aquarius Full Moon usually turns your focus toward your outward life, publicity, and career. This also encompasses your direction and achievements.
The last 12 months have had you working hard and making decisions that impacted your future - and now it seems that you are either beginning or about to begin a new phase. This Full Moon falls in your Tenth House that rules all of these things: career, direction and publicity. You may not realize it, but you are in a position of power right now. The ball is seemingly in your court. You could be going for a promotion, looking to switch careers, move, retire, or even change what you do for work. Whatever it is, how you build foundation and security in the world is in focus.
As we find ourselves immersed in the Jupiter Cazimi, your home life will get a boost. If you have been looking to do home-related work, know that this Full Moon isn't your only chance. Jupiter has only newly entered this part of your chart - and it can help. In the coming months or year, you can see significant shifts in your home and family life for the better! If you have been considering some ancestral work and deepening your roots, this would be the opportune time. Even at this Full Moon, there is a ton of support. Jupiter's gifts are only just beginning! Consider this the moment of planting for what's to come. Your inner world is about to grow in ways you could never imagine.
Use this Full Moon to start a new journey in your life direction or career. Go for a promotion, a new job, or even a career change. Put yourself up on a pedestal more and see your worth and value as it is in the light of day. Work on your long-term goals and start making moves to bring them to fruition. You have a lot of power in your hands right now. How are you going to use it?
Gemini
NINTH HOUSE
Exploration, Progress, Expansion & Philosophy
Faith - a word that you must work with more. You must learn the power of having faith in yourself and taking a leap toward your goals and dreams.
The Aquarius Full Moon brings the energy to nurture areas of growth in your life. There is a sense that your paths to growth, evolution, change, expansion and new territory are opening up. This can happen through education, spirituality, work, or even just your personal next steps. You have been sitting with "where do I go from here" for quite some time. This is your chance to make moves. Of course, that requires that keyword: Faith.
Jupiter will be supporting you in the next year, too, in a new area of your chart. Around this Full Moon, if you need to formalize a contract, agreement, or relationship, you will be in luck! Jupiter will bestow great opportunities for writing, connecting, and communicating. You will see a whole world open up for you! This could also be related to travel or deepening your relationship with those in your immediate circle. Pluto will also be supportive at this lunation and make it a powerhouse. In fellow Air sign, Aquarius, there is a chance that you could be more creative and willing to take up a bit more space. This Full Moon will make sure that you will not be at a loss for words. Using your voice as a tool for advocacy will take you far, too. Don't forget that what we say can have an impact. Ultimately, this lunation tells me that some good news is on the way!
Use this Full Moon to truly believe in yourself, opening up the floodgates of potential. Take time, and see the sky's the limit. You have to learn that some risks are worth the reward. You are itching to travel, go to new places, meet new people, or simply engage in new experiences overall. You are seeking a fresh start, and this Full Moon can give it to you. What are you waiting for?
Cancer
EIGHTH HOUSE
Transformation, Renewal, Intimacy & Healing
It is time to get intimate. You have to face the shadow eventually, and right now, you are asked to see what has been hidden from view or deal with what has been left unchecked.
The Full Moon sits in your Eighth House. This is a time of transformation, change, and evolution - but also a time of healing and sharing the deepest parts of yourself with someone else. There is a level of fear that can be associated with this, understandably. You are very close-lipped about your emotional nature. But sometimes, stability requires sharing what lies beneath the foundation. Questions around worth, shared resources, sexuality, close partnerships, and money could come up now.
There are a host of planets that are positively interacting with one another now. The Sun, Moon, Jupiter, Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto all connect. This alignment is highlighting a need to stabilize and build on the security that stands before you. Together, these reciprocal relationships create great harmony around this lunation. A shining star of this Full Moon is the Jupiter in Leo transit. Consider this a boost of good luck, as it thrusts open the doors in your Second House of resources, income, value, and self-worth. Many of you will see a positive change in your resources. This Full Moon would be a time to take that risk, try for that promotion, ask for that raise, or seek our new ways of creating more security. As Neptune moves through your Tenth House, you are building your career to be more of a beautiful thing. This could look like updates to your image or glamorizing your daily life. Additionally, Neptune is having you prioritize your whimsy and softness.
Use this Full Moon to start a new cycle for yourself and embrace your shadows. Commune with your inner world and transmute grief into strength. Find new ways of investing or saving financially, but also investing in yourself. Work on getting more intimate with your needs - find the hidden power that lies within you. Form deeper bonds with those you trust.
Leo
SEVENTH HOUSE
Connections, Commitments, Collaborations & Balance
The Full Moon in Aquarius will also bring up the "other" in your life - the other people, roles, and identities even within you. It is about harmonization and connection as it lights up your Seventh House.
So this Full Moon brings an opportunity to make changes on the partnership front. This could look like anything, but the main factor here is that you have a choice. You can take things to the next level or choose to walk away. Some of you may be very happy in your relationship and seek to settle more into it. Others see that they may need to have conversations about reciprocity. Equality and level-setting seem to be coming up as well. This could be outside of romantic relationships - seeping into other personal or professional unions you have (friends, family, work).
You are at a turning point or pivotal moment in your year! There is a sense that you are being asked to take the lead and head into a new direction. Jupiter is now in your sign and finds itself cozied up to the Full Moon! Things will start to feel abundant and pleasurable. Truly there is a flow that we have not seen in a while. Around this Full Moon, you will be gifted golden opportunities, as the planet of expansion and growth will ensure that you are ready to break out of your monotony a bit and move into new territory. It is time to steep yourself in all that you desire and embody whatever aspirations you have. No dream is too small. No opportunity too big! You have a Midas touch. The next year can bring you endless blessings, and this lunation is just the beginning. It is time to cross the threshold and take your life back into your own hands. With Uranus in your Eleventh House now, too, you can find that you are motivated to share your ideas and connect with those around you. Community support is the backbone of your incredible growth-related story arc.
Use this Full Moon to start something new with other people in your life. Enact boundaries and keep them. Stand up for yourself. Form new relationships and alliances. Seek counsel and re-evaluate people who have been disrespecting your energy. Strengthen the partnerships that truly matter. Some of you may even decide to take your romantic relationship to the next level. Whatever you do, know that you will likely surprise those around you.
Virgo
SIXTH HOUSE
Routines, Rituals, Well-being & Organization
This Full Moon is a call to connect with yourself, your body, and the world around you. You are asked to get organized. Lean into the mundane world as a form of magic. Rituals are sacred.
This Full Moon shines a light on your Sixth House, where we focus on our health, regimens, and daily life. Maybe you have been quietly waiting for something to give, but now it is time to take control. It seems that taking on too much can have a negative impact on you-if you don't figure out how to manage everything on your plate (or even ask for a little help). You may not have been as good to your body as you would like to be, and now you are being faced with the repercussions. You need to recenter a bit. Your health and your well-being are important! Alternatively, you could make great progress in how you care for yourself. New clients and work opportunities can also arise, and they will be quite beneficial!
With a plethora of planets all working well together, this Full Moon promises to be quite sweet. Saturn is no longer opposite your sign, you can breathe a bit easier. The last few years have been a bit of a whirlwind. Slowing down is a gift. This could not be more true as Jupiter is in Leo, moving through the quiet area of your chart - the Twelfth House. Around this time, you will find that you will be shown moments of knowing when and where to let go, surrender, and listen to your intuition. Jupiter brings gifts and rewards the more you lean into your inner sanctum and learn to prioritize your sense of rest and ease. Your spiritual life can and probably will take new heights in the coming year. This is your time to try something new, discover hidden talents, and heal the repetitive cycles that keep you small. The work you do behind the scenes now will only serve you in the long run. By this time next year, you will see just how lucky you are!
Use this Full Moon to find new routines and regimens that work for you. Create daily practices that you can keep while maintaining your love of variety. Try new workouts and adhere to a healthier diet. You may be asked to let go of a bad habit or improve something in your life. Watch how much you take on and make time for rest and self-care. Take care of your body, and your needs, and know it is ok to nourish yourself too.
Libra
FIFTH HOUSE
Joy, Creativity, Expression & Pleasure
Full Moons are a time of highlighting what is important in your life. This one comes in to remind you of your happiness, joy, and pleasure. They shine a light, expose, and brighten.
This Full Moon comes to shine a light on your Fifth House, and creativity is abundant now. You are called to see what sits right in front of you in this present moment. This isn't about tomorrow or yesterday - just today. Slowing down and seeing what is here and now can actually inspire you. The Fifth House rules creativity, conception, children, expression, love, and happiness. These areas will be highlighted. You are being called back to your passions and what drives you. You may be at a creative high, and you should follow that energy. However, you may also be doubting yourself a bit. Sometimes finding your way back to what you love isn't easy. It takes courage and heart to make it there.
The Sun and Jupiter align as they play well with Uranus and Neptune. They, all together, create an intricate web of flowing energy that extends out beyond them. There's a natural ease at this lunation that has not been seen in a while. You will find that you are quite motivated around this Full Moon, and that will set the tone for the weeks to come. As Jupiter has just begun its time in Leo, this supple energy helps you grow your network, your long-term visions, and your sense of community. For the next year, who you know will take you far. There is a general sense that your connections are more fertile than they've ever been. Your idea of the future is also changing, thanks to your role in your community. Be an active participant now and find a home in the world - making it a better place. You will meet the right people at the right time, and you will be given the chance to engage in true reciprocity. It is time to share your gifts with others and receive their gifts in return!
Use this Full Moon to let loose and have a bit of fun! Work on finding your strengths and using them to your advantage. Follow your heart and your creativity - let it all flow. Get in touch with your inner child and open yourself up to new experiences. Most importantly, take time to stand out and shine radiantly! You deserve to be happy as much as anyone else does. It doesn't make you selfish. It just makes you human. Have pride in who you are.
Scorpio
FOURTH HOUSE
Roots, Foundations, Family & Privacy
This Full Moon falls in a Fixed sign like yours, so the energy will feel more potent for you. With a Fixed Full Moon, what we shift or change has long-term impact. For you, this occurs in the most private part of your life.
With the Full Moon in Aquarius, it impacts areas of your life that need attention. This would be your Fourth House of home, family, foundation, and roots. You may find that you are having to face familial matters you have been avoiding. Alternatively, you may be connecting with family, doing a little redecorating, moving, or working with your ancestors. This Full Moon is perfect for all things domestic and getting organized on the home front. You may be focusing on what matters to you and trying to create a better work/life balance.
Honestly, outside of Leo, you are one of the other signs that will see quite a few blessings out in the world now that Jupiter is in Leo. In your chart, this will be a dose of goodness in your career, legacy, and professional life. But it doesn't end at this Full Moon, it only just begins. If anything, it only continues to grow. Jupiter will be in this part of your chart, where you will see exponential growth in your work in the next year. Recognition will not be hard to come by, nor will a sense of satisfaction in your own creations. Whatever you want to be known for, you will start to see those pieces come together. This lunation has extra support, as well. It reaches out to Neptune and Uranus - creating an ocean of flowing energy around you. You will see that nothing is as hard as it seems, and in some ways, some obstacles may be brought down. The sky is the limit for you. Hold expectations lightly, but never undersell what you can offer to the world.
Use this Full Moon to focus on your home and family life. Redecorate, renovate, or move. Try resolving past issues with family that may be residual or seek to create better boundaries with them. Take time away to rest and reflect on this lunation. Lean into your nostalgia a bit and make peace with the past. Open yourself up to ancestral guidance, learn more about your lineage and connect with those you love - living or deceased. Know that you create the security and safety you seek.
Sagittarius
THIRD HOUSE
Perspective, Communication, Insights & Reception
It's that time again! The Full Moon is here! This one falls in Aquarius, sitting in your Third House. You will be itching to connect, share, and experience!
This is a House of communication, thought, and idea. You may feel the need to share more than usual and tell people what is going on in your mind. You could be full of ideas and new inventions, thoughts, or concepts! Write them all down. You won't want to lose track or lose sight of what is swirling around in that mind of yours. Now, a downside here could be increased busyness, as the Third House creates a flurry of little tasks that feel like they need to be tackled immediately. This can be difficult as it seems that you don't want to miss something. There is a lot to keep track of, and with your mind racing it can be easy to have an oversight. Perspective will be really important for you. Try talking things out with someone - or have a friend or close friend hold you accountable to some of these tasks. Set alarms or ask for help where it is warranted. Communication is key now.
Jupiter's connection to this Full Moon will make things a bit more easeful. It will support you in any decisions you make that allow you to reach beyond your current limitations. This is no time to make yourself small, instead, you can dream big - and know it can come to fruition. Jupiter gifts expansion wherever it sits, and in the Ninth House, this is the expansion of achievement, travel, and growth. You will feel abundant when you do things a little differently. Now is a time to take a risk, book that trip, send out that manuscript, or take that class. If you have been staring an obstacle in the face, you may watch it start to crumble. The Full Moon is incredibly supported not just Jupiter, but also Neptune and Uranus. So you will find that the energy around this lunation is much more motivating and more jubilant than the last few we have had. Really sit with this and soak it up. Enjoy the tender moments. For the next year, you will be in a whole new phase in your life.
Use this Full Moon to really lean into using your voice. Listen to what others have to say - but also share what you need or think. Start a new project or reach out to those around you. Connect with friends and siblings. Write down all of your ideas and seek adventure close to home. Be flexible, use what you know and adapt to the situations that are around you.
Capricorn
SECOND HOUSE
Values, Worth, Resources & Reliance
This time of year can have your mind on finances. The Aquarius Full Moon always brings up questions around money, value, and worth. What truly makes you feel resourced?
This is because the Moon goes through your Second House of income, self-worth, and material possessions. Actually, it seems that you could have the potential to make changes to how you earn money. You could be looking to bring in more or simply change your relationship with money. You may also have higher expenditures than normal. So, pay attention to your financial picture. Alternatively, you could be making changes to your self-confidence and what you stand for or believe in. The last few years have seen you grow, evolving into a new person. Thus, you are making shifts in what you choose to find value in. What would you consider to be a tradition for you? What gives you a sense of worth? Don't allow this to be tied to other people.
With the Full Moon so close to Jupiter, there is a sense that things are flowing - easier than they have been. In many ways, some of the fears or scarcity you've had around resources are starting to shift into a more abundant mindset. This could not be more true as Jupiter moves through Leo. Around this time, you will see quite a bit of growth in the space of your healing, intimacy, and inner power. As well as, recognizing new financial opportunities with you or even a partner. Some of you may see this in the form of a bonus, payout, inheritance, real estate sale, commission, or debt relief! Whatever it is, how you connect to what you share is changing. Your relationship with others is only getting deeper, along with your connection to your own sexuality. Uranus is also helpful now, as it moves through your Sixth House. Work could stand to be busier than usual, but this will yield recognition. You may find you have a lot more motivation to get things started. Feel the fire starting to ignite!
Use this Full Moon to open doors to new resources and focus on what you have and what you can gain. You may have to let go. Seek alternative sources of income or money. Look to new pathways of earning. Confront your feeling of being unworthy. Hold yourself in high regard and own your value. Your talents bring you everything you want. You own, create, and hold all of the potential in your own hands.
Aquarius
FIRST HOUSE
Individuality, Motivation, Identity & Focus
It is your time, dear Aquarius! Don't let anyone dim your light. This Full Moon is a call to come home back to yourself, finding clarity in your identity, and what you actually want in life.
This Full Moon illuminates your First House of self and identity, a place you know all too well. You may have to reckon with yourself, your motives, and your desires. This isn't always easy to do. You are carving out a new space for you to be more…you. This is important, as you have been working hard the last year to figure out what you want. You can clarify who you are now more than ever. Pluto is recently in your sign, bringing personal transformation. At this lunation, you are asked to put what you've been learning to the test! It isn't just that you have gained new insight, but what you actually do with it.
Jupiter is just starting its time in Leo. For the next year, you will find more ease and softness in your relationships. For many of you, some golden opportunities may bring you much closer to those you love, respect, and/or admire. Contracts can be fruitful, as can anything you do in collaboration. Jupiter is teaching you to share responsibility and find growth in creating connection. Take care to put emphasis on your relationships and be more willing to be vulnerable in them. This Full Moon gives you a lens into how Jupiter in Leo will be. The positive exchanges leave you feeling undeniably supported and looking to share and give that support back. People are showing up for you - so let them! Uranus in Gemini will bring moments of adventure and spontaneity in your life. Be open to saying yes and try to push yourself outside of your comfort zone.
Use this Full Moon to call back your power. Stand in your body and fully own who you are. Run for what you want and start a new cycle in your being. Seek wholeness in your identity and share yourself unapologetically. Give yourself space for freedom and open the doors to change. Don't resist what unfolds, instead leap into it. Embrace the present. Own your shadow - and your light.
Pisces
TWELFTH HOUSE
Depth, Respite, Introspection & Intuition
You are itching for peace and a slower pace now. You have been working so hard the last few weeks. You might have felt like you were not able to catch a break in some ways. A demanding schedule for you, or anyone, can be taxing. However, this Full Moon invites you to find more serenity in your life.
Sometimes, peace is created, not found. Your Twelfth House is being highlighted, a place of quiet and rest. You may feel a little run down or like you need some time away. Listen to your body. Because Full Moons signal release, you may be asked to close a door or let something go, as well. Focus on surrender as a form of liberation now, and you will have the respite and peace you desire. The Twelfth House also asks for you to get in touch with your intuition and pay attention to your dreams. You could be re-engaging with a more spiritual and hidden aspect of yourself now.
Jupiter connects well with this Full Moon. It is teaching you the importance of breaking out of mundane cycles. It is blazing through your Sixth House, getting you to "clean things up" on every level. You could feel more motivated to work on yourself, get organized, or support your daily life with new habits. Jupiter will support the endeavors you begin at this Full Moon over the next year. It will be helping you expand and grow how you take care of yourself. From a work perspective, you may see a lot of clients coming in. If you have been battling a health issue, that will start to shift or find a better form of treatment in the coming months. Jupiter's aid now is giving you a lens into what sort of gifts it can bring. Financial opportunities can take a turn for the better and any projects you work on will put you in the spotlight. If you have been hoping to change your relationship with your well-being or body, use this energy to help! New forms of treatments may arise, or you may seek out unique paths to feeling more connected to physical being.
Use this Full Moon to slow down and focus on completion. Take time for rest, reflection, and respite. Turn your attention to what needs to be addressed and seek resolution. Close doors on what no longer holds value in your life - let go of limitations. Ease into the spiritual space and commune with your spirit. Give yourself forgiveness, grace, and peace. You deserve it now.
