Full Moon in Aquarius

August 9th, 2025, 3:55am EDT

The Full Moon occurs at 17 degrees Aquarius, which means it is disposed by Uranus, the Great Awakener.  Uranus is very busy right now…newly into Gemini, he is forming a stepping stone with Pluto, manifesting with Mars, and forming a resource with Saturn and Neptune.  What this indicates is that the larger themes that have been playing out in our lives and in society as a whole will impact your emotions and inner world.  Maybe you will feel the stirrings of transformation and feel hopeful and energized or feel the tension from Pluto’s insistence on change.  

Aquarius, the water bearer, is the sign of spiritual, unconditional love.  It is where we open to oneness, where we understand that nothing is truly separate from us.  There is no “out there” or things happening to us; it is all for us, by us, as part of a greater whole.  As such, we may be feeling more emotionally free, not because we feel suffocated and demand freedom, but because we realize the only things suffocating us were our own selves.  This realization alone is life-changing!

Venus and Jupiter (preparing for their new cycle at 14 Cancer), and the Karmic (South Node) are forming a boomerang yod with the Moon and the Sun.  Whatever is arising between Venus/Jupiter and the Karmic Node will be moving us to act.  The Moon is our focal point in this yod so take care not to emotionally react due to whatever arises.   

This lunation is very asteroid and 5D Planet heavy.  Ceres and Salacia in Taurus are forming a bridge with Vesta and Juno is Scorpio.  This in turn is creating a crossroad with the Moon, (straddled by Pallas Athena and Chariklo) and the Sun.  Ceres is the midwife and Salacia (wife of Neptune) is a strong divine feminine presence who knows her own worth.  On the other side of the bridge is our fire and devotion (Vesta) and Juno, representing partnerships, loyalty, and empowerment.  Pallas Athena lends wisdom and strength to our emotional selves and Chariklo soothes was is hurting.  These two flanking the Moon give us the emotional strength to make needed changes and to move in a new direction.    

This crossroad feels remarkably empowering.  Yes, it is possible to feel yanked in different directions, but all of the directions lead back to something beautiful and grand.  It is, however, always a good idea to get centered and grounded when faced with these cosmic intersections.  Stand in the middle and take in all the scenery before making decisions.   

The Sun is the only component from the crossroad not cohorting with a feminine goddess.  This indicates that aligned action is what will move the energy along.  Recall that the Sun in Leo is also the release of the tension from the Yod with Venus/Jupiter and the Karmic Node, so this confirms that bold, brave action is needed at this time.

Given that Uranus is disposing this lunation, it is very possible that we will be led down a path we weren’t expecting.  Maybe, with the stepping stone from Vesta and Juno, we decide to de-commit to something or someone.  Or maybe we commit to something entirely unexpected!  (This could be that bold, brave action!)

Boiled down, this lunation offers plenty of intuitive insight and perspective.  When we realize that everything “out there” is a reflection of “in here”, and that all is connected, we can get centered and access peace.  While insight, opportunities and distractions are coming at us from every angle, the abundance of divine feminine energy will help us get clear.  From there, the energy of the Sun propels you to step out into the light and take aligned action.

Here are a few journaling prompts to honor the Full Moon in Aquarius:

Where am I ready to birth a new version of myself, even if it means a disruption of old commitments or identities?

Where in my life am I giving away my power by viewing situations as happening to me, rather than for me?

What old patterns or ways of being are conflicting with my heart’s desires?  

What unexpected invitations are showing up, and how would it feel to say “yes?”

What would aligned action look like right now?  What would I do if I trusted myself completely?

Finally, here is a meditation idea based on Stephanie’s guidance to stand in the center of a crossroad when you don’t know which path to take:

Sit comfortably, and breathe in deeply for a count of 5, hold for a count of 6, exhale for a count of 7. Do this until you feel centered and calm.

Now imagine yourself in the center of the crossroad.   Begin to imagine taking different paths.  Feel the sensations in your body when you walk down one path.  After exploring that path, come back to the center of the intersection.  Take some grounding breaths and re-center before exploring a different option.  

Really pay attention to how each road feels in your body.  Your body will tell you what you need to know.

You may explore each road more than once, by exploring how it feels to go down a path now. Then explore again how it feels 6 months from now. How does it feel in a year?  2 years?  

Note which feels best in your body.  Sometimes it can be surprising that a path that you think you want to take turns out to not feeling so good after a period of time.

2025 Full Moon in Capricorn

Thursday July 10, 2025

4:37pm EDT

18 Cancer 50’

Written by Cari Campbell

The Full Moon in Capricorn is disposed by Saturn, who has just entered Aries, the Divine Spark of Creation.  This invites a creative, fiery energy, into typical Capricorn “get it done” energy.  Capricorn is the sign of the Executive Director, and the home to our spiritual power. 

Consider this- when body, mind, and spirit are aligned, is there anything we cannot get done? Our energy flows.  When we allow our power to flow from source, from Spirit, we are limitless.    This is an opportunity to channel our energy into completing projects- bonus points if those projects are related to our dreams.  Can you complete a cycle of indecision by taking a step onto the path towards your dream life?

The Lunar nodes are still nudging you, but this time the aspects are harmonious, with manifestations and resources.  Specifically, the Karmic (South) Node is manifesting with the Moon and finding resource with the Sun, and the Dharmic (North) Node is manifesting with the Sun and in resource with the Moon.  Finally, the energies of owning what you know and have mastered (South Node) and the energies of your soul’s evolution (North Node) are integrating into the wholeness of your being.

When we consider Juno’s placement at 16 Scorpio, we actually have a cradle formation- cradles hold something precious.  Juno is committed partnerships, or just commitment in general.

Are you ready to stand firm in any commitments?  What is calling you?  What have you been wrestling with as the nodes have been aspecting the past full Moons? 

When we declare something and commit fully (no backing out!), and we begin to actually walk the path that we are considering, only then does the path open up before us.  Rumi said, “As you start to walk on the way, the way appears.”  Clarity doesn’t come before action.  It comes from action.

Mars in Virgo is loosely (5 degrees) manifesting with the Moon and in resource with the Sun, so we have another added boost of focused energy.  Mars in Virgo is grounded and detail-oriented- the perfect energy for paying attention to the fine details and getting the job done.  There is no friction to this lunation like there has been in previous months- so what are you waiting for?

Other influences during this Full Moon in Capricorn:

Uranus has just entered Gemini.  Neptune has recently gone retrograde and Saturn will station retrograde two days after the Full Moon on the 12^th– this means that on one hand, Uranus is shaking up our foundations around communication, connection, and consciousness.    On the other, Saturn and Neptune are asking us to review what we just started!  It’s like we’ve just begun to get our footing with what we are creating and now we are asked to take a closer look.  The brilliance is that we have from now until September to use our newly awakened awareness (courtesy of Uranus) to look at our creations from a new perspective. 

All of this is to say that nothing is set in stone. Our paths often take twists and turns that we didn’t see coming and that is just part of life. This is the time to ask ourselves, “Does this light me up?” “Am I showing up in my full authenticity?” “Where do I still feel like I don’t belong?”  “Do I truly believe I am worthy of creating this?”  Let Uranus deliver flashes of insight while you consider what needs adjusting- what is working and what isn’t.  This includes adjusting your beliefs and thoughts- where are you unconsciously limiting your greatness?

Don’t let retrogrades talk you out of forward movement.  Use the energy of this time to move your feet forward on the path you are meant to walk.

The Full Moon occurs at 3:44 AM EDT in truth-seeking Sagittarius.    This means this lunation is disposed by Jupiter, newly ingressed into Cancer.  But before we jump for joy at a Jupiter disposition, we should note that Jupiter (who is loosely communing with Mercury) is forming stepping stones to Neptune and Saturn (both still shaking up our lives with their Aries ingress), manifesting with Vesta, and forming a great eliminator with Pluto.

Oh yes- there is a call that is being made, from the cosmos to your soul.  What are you willing to give up in order to live that Soul-Led life?  Where you are still letting your old patterns keep you in a loop?

The lunar nodes are still pestering us to get on the path of our evolution.  The eclipse wormhole may have ended last month but the nodes are forming a grand cross with the Moon and the Sun. This means we are probably still going back and forth over which direction to choose.  Are we taking the path of safety, what we are experts in, and what we know?  Or the path of growth, courage, and what we Know deep in our soul?

It’s not all bad and scary, though.  The Moon and Jupiter are in mutual reception (each in the home of the other planet).   Our inner world and private feelings are rooted in truth, courage, and freedom (Moon in Sagittarius) and Jupiter in Cancer seems to be giving off a vibration of nurturing, protection, safety…You are safe here in this truth of yours.  So, what is the truth of who you are?  Who you are becoming?  What needs to be released in order to step into and fully embody this new you?

Pluto is forming an intersection with Venus and Vesta.  This is another layer of the heart-led choice sitting in front of you.  Pluto is the middle ground of the bridge between our Venusian desires (this includes material security) and our heart’s fire (Vesta) ; Pluto doesn’t ask nicely and wait for you to get on board with his plan.  He knocks you to your knees and does what it takes for you to transform.  The best way to handle a Pluto aspect is to roll with it willingly. Transformation is going to occur one way or another, so you might as well release resistance and enjoy the ride.  But wait- what IS Pluto’s plan?   To get you to shift from believing that you have to give up your security and material comfort in order to live in your devotion.  When you are 100% committed to embodying your vision and that next version of yourself, you can transform into the person that has both the security and the dream.  

Saturn and Neptune in Aries is bringing a creative fire that we likely haven’t felt in some time.  We’ve been deep in the watery, spiritual depths of Pisces for years and now it’s time to take all that we uncovered and assimilated in Pisces and birth something new.  Aries is the first sign of the Zodiac- this is a true new beginning.  If you are wanting to reinvent yourself, now is the time to begin.

Chiron/Eris is in intimacy with the Dharmic (North) Node and Uranus, manifesting with Mars, in a great eliminator with the Karmic (South) Node, in a bridge with Arcturus and a resource with Pallas Athena.   Our deep wounds of unworthiness, “I can’t do this”, fear of being truly seen and judged…they are not the truth of who we are.  When you step outside of the mental loop that our wounds can keep us in and start moving towards your path in spite of these wounds, the wounds lose their power.  The great eliminator between our wounds/inner disruption (Chiron/Eris) and the South/Karmic Node is a clear call to disrupt the power our old stories have over ourselves.  Stay open and allow insights and higher consciousness from Uranus and Arcturus, and capitalize on the energy from Mars to take aligned action.

Transformation doesn’t just come by snapping our fingers and waking up a new person.  Birthing something new- a new you, a new career, a new home…whatever you are calling in, it requires a release of the old you.  Imagine your dreams- how does the person who has this already feel?  What about posture?  Energy?  How can you embody this person now?

When the self-doubts, fears, and wounds arise (and they will), sit with them.  You don’t have to believe these thoughts, but just thank them for wanting to keep you safe.  Ask your Higher Self to take over and let your small-self fears take a backseat.  If we can stay present in the discomfort, it can move and release.  On the other side of that is freedom, truth, and empowerment.  This is what the full Moon in Sagittarius is offering to up at this time.  Are you ready?

Full Moon in Scorpio, May 12^th, 12:56pm EDT

Written by Cari Campbell

The Full Moon in Scorpio is occurring opposite Uranus, manifesting with the Soul Star Chakra (North Node)/Ceres/Saturn, and forming a boomerang yod with Jupiter and Chiron/Eris.  We have, yet again, another jam-packed lunation offering up flashes of insight, support for moving towards a more soul-led life, and inner friction thanks to Chiron and Eris.  

Recall that Chiron and Eris were communing with the Sun during the last full Moon, so there is a continuation of a theme.  Also recall that last month there was a boomerang yod, also featuring Uranus.  The Nodes, given we were in eclipse season, were obviously active in the past few lunations.  Even though the wormhole has closed, whatever came up for you then is still being unpacked.  Mercury, Venus and Mars have all recovered their shadows, so we are moving into new territory with all that we realized during the wormhole.  And yet…it seems there is still more to come in regards to what was unearthed the past couple of months.  Yods are also known as “Fingers of God” as the two resources point to the direction of the “fulcrum” planet.  In both this full Moon and the one prior, the Moon is the fulcrum of the boomerang yod and the Sun is the release valve between the two resources, but this time the Sun is communing with Uranus.  Interesting that only this morning I heard a notable channel state that May would be full of “trickster energy”, which is typically associated with Uranus.  “Trickster” doesn’t have to have a negative connotation- it can just quickly expose something or cause a change in course.

Chiron and Eris were also part of the previous yod- but now Jupiter is playing a major role.  Jupiter amplifies- so expect what came up last month to be bigger.  Maybe this feels good, maybe it doesn’t.  It’s possible that the Chiron core-wound feels amplified to get you to pay attention and integrate your rejected parts of yourself once and for all.  

Pluto is the dispositor of this full Moon, and he is in resource with Neptune (in a 5 degree orb resource with Venus), and forming an intersection with Mercury in Taurus and Haumea in Scorpio.  Pluto’s transformative Aquarian energy is not meshing well with Mercury’s earthy vibe, but Pluto rules Scorpio and therefore is disposing Haumea.  She is a creatrix; a Goddess who can birth from nothing.  Ponder this…are your thoughts (Mercury) leaning towards security, while Haumea is hinting that you are capable of birthing something completely new?  Haumea is a 5D planet, so she will inform your consciousness rather than trigger specific events; spending time in quiet contemplation will provide the space for her energy to flow through you.

The Soul Star, Ceres and Saturn are holding space for you to usher in something soul-led.  Ceres is the midwife who can help you cross the threshold, while Saturn provides the necessary discipline to help you stay focused on who you are becoming.  The Earth Star in grounded Virgo is probably offering something stable in an area where you already have mastery.  Are you going back, or are you going forward?  These planets are forming a stepping stone with Jupiter which means Jupiter is also forming an intersection between the lunar nodes.  How can Jupiter’s energy in Gemini be put to good use?  In 5D, Gemini is where duality is transcended.   It seems overthinking, making something an “either/or”, “good/bad”, “dharma/karma” decision would be firmly in duality and not what Jupiter is asking at this time.    A useful practice will be to get centered and in a place of presence and neutrality, and from there, let curiosity (a Gemini trait!) guide you. 

It is worth pointing out that part of duality is male vs female, and currently Venus and Mars are manifesting with one other until the end of May, so there is a nice flow between these energies.  Learning to flow between feminine and masculine energies will facilitate that centered presence where mind, body and soul are all in alignment.

Circling back to Chiron and Eris- there is probably a long-standing issue that is ready to be transformed, and this transformation is necessary for the forward movement of your soul-led visions.  What recurring discomfort keeps you “safe” (in other words, stagnant)?  If, after getting centered and navigating through the nodal intersection, you are confronted with those same limiting fears that always hold you back, it’s time for a shift.  Take those small steps through your discomfort.  Sit with the unease that arises.  Rip off the band-aid and just do something that moves you forward.   Avoiding will not make your fears disappear. 

Birthing something new, living more authentically, doing soul-led work…it can be scary.  Doing the inner work to align with a different reality and doing the outer work (there’s that female/male flow coming into play!) to actually take action in spite of fear is necessary to move into this next level.  The cosmos are encouraging us to breathe…love ourselves…notice our discomfort…and live authentically.
