The Full Moon aspect is always one where we have the interaction of two opposing energies. The mastery comes in seeing the lessons and the opportunities for growth. This month the Sun and Moon stand-off at 4 degrees Leo and Aquarius respectively.
When Leo is in play, we always know the ego is not far away. So, a full Moon in Aquarius opposite the Sun in Leo is interesting in that we have the focus on self with the Sun in egoistic Leo, wanting the spotlight, while the Moon in Aquarius entices us to think of the other with themes of fraternity, idealism and humanitarianism.
For those on a spiritual path, and more importantly those on a positive spiritual path, the counsel this full moon is to keep the ego in check by focusing on the unity consciousness of our higher being and all that is. The path of service to others is one that is slowly replacing the materialism and self-indulgence that has been programmed and encouraged to the masses, at least it is with those that have the eyes to see. One must remember to never judge those not yet waking to their true being-ness. All things happen in divine timing.
Just an hour and a half before the precise full moon, the Moon passes over the currently retrograde Mars, also in Aquarius. At a time when emotions are already heightened, the aggression of Mars could cause some to feel agitated. Fore-warned is fore-armed, so observe yourself and mood triggers and practice non-attachment. These feelings will pass quickly as the moon moves quite fast through the horoscope.
The full moon is 6:20 am Melbourne time, 3:20 am Indochina time, and 1:50 am India time on Saturday 28th July, and 9:20 pm UK time, 8:20 pm UTC/GMT, 4:20 pm Eastern time and 1:20 pm Pacific time on Friday 27th July.
May you be blessed in your spiritual endeavors. x
