On Saturday we have a Full Moon in Aquarius. Aquarius is associated with themes of innovation, community, and humanitarianism. It's a time for breakthroughs, restructuring, potential restructuring, and a focus on collective belonging. This Full Moon asks us to examine our values and walk away from the people, places, and things that are no longer aligned with the path we are walking.
This moon is referred to as the Sturgeon moon. The Sturgeon Moon is named after the sturgeon fish, an ancient fish. This connection to an ancient species symbolizes resilience, quiet strength, and the importance of connecting with truths.
I think collective resilience is something that we can all speak on during this timeline. This whole week (Lion’s gate on friday, full moon, mercury retrograde, several planets going into alignment) There is much energy in the air pushing us all in the direction of shedding old beliefs, old systems, old friends, and starting to create something from those deeper wells of inner truth.
Aquarius energy is connected to rebellion and not going with the masses, connected to honoring the uniqueness within. Examine those areas in which you have been called to step outside of the “norms”. This is your higher calling to break out of those pressures and flow onto your own path. Aquarius energy doesn't care what anyone thinks of her, she walks with her head held high in the direction of her highest self, and now is your opportunity to do the same.
The combined energies of the Sturgeon Moon and Lion's Gate empowers you to connect with your inner self, embrace your true authenticity, and awaken your higher self.
Shed the layers of self that have been afraid to be seen, heard or witnessed.
Full Moon Shadow work:
What beliefs do I hold about community, and where did they come from?
Where in my life do I feel restricted or stifled?
When do I feel emotionally free?
Where am I resisting change and evolution, and why?
What outdated expectations or roles do I need to release to feel more aligned with my higher self?
As you sit with these questions, let the last one settle in as you continue to tap in this Moon cycle. You can go a bit deeper and ask yourself, “How can I work to let go of these outdated expectations?”. Harnessing that Full Moon power of release to help push these hidden expectations to the surface to fully let them go, bit by bit.
Happy Full Moon
