August Sturgeon Super Blue Moon

August Sturgeon Super Blue Moon

The full moon will arrive on Monday 19, 2024 at 7:26 pm. As the summer continues to grace us with more fun in the sun, keep your spiritual self intact for a new full moon arriving in August, also known as the "sturgeon moon." (North American fishing tribes called August's full moon the sturgeon moon since the species appeared in large numbers during this month.)
The full moon on Monday is what's known as a Super - Blue moon. Super, because of its greater appparent size and brightness and the blue is nothing to do with colour, it's actually a seasonal blue moon meaning we've had a certain amount of full moons in a specific time.
In terms of energy, this will be a fabulously strong moon with lots of summer energy!
This moon lands in Aquarius and is perfectly square to Uranus - the planet of awakening. Expect the unexpected is the headline for this moon! Uranus’ energy will be front and center in this lunation, which can feel like an electric shock to our nervous system.
People may be feeling emotionally distant, cautious, and reserved under this full moon. But this energy can be used to be productive for having uncomfortable (but necessary!) boundary-setting conversations.
On the same day, Jupiter in Gemini rams into Saturn in Pisces. Jupiter is a planet of support and expansion, while Saturn is more restrictive and challenging. These opposing energies can deliver a reality check, especially regarding your plans and dreams. Are these dreams actually sustainable, and will they be fulfilling in the long-term? And are you taking actionable steps toward your goals, or repeating patterns that keep you stuck and stagnant? Something’s got to give and, one thing’s for sure: This full moon will force the change you’ve avoided!!
As always, use this full moon as a time to let go of what no longer serves you and cleanse yourself from the stressors of the past month. Full moon rituals like deep cleaning your home, extended meditations, a good shower, or even a primal scream can remind you of the potential on the horizon.
If you've not put your crystals out lately, this moon is great one for some supercharging, especially if you've got some bigger pieces a bit more special.
