What August’s Aquarius Full Moon Means For You!

At 9:36 p.m. EDT on Thursday, August 11, the full moon will be at its brightest. It will also be bright on Wednesday and Friday. This will be the last supermoon of 2022, ending a run of supermoons that lasted four months.

This moon will look bigger and brighter in the night sky, which may make you feel the energy of the moon more strongly (via Refinery 29). The news source also says that when people work together, the full moon in Aquarius can mean a big change. This could lead to things like protests or groups of people helping those in need.

Since it happens during the Lions Gate Portal, the Sturgeon Moon is also a good time to make plans and bring your dreams to life. Crystals are great for making plans. Woman & Home says that when the portal is opened, it brings strong energy that can help you create the life of your dreams. Some ways to do this are to meditate and see yourself getting what you want.

Here’s a closer look at what to expect for your zodiac sign and the wellness practices that will help you get through this supermoon:

Aries

The fiery flame of Aries burns bright all year long, but this supermoon will have you making time for activities that will bring back your childlike joy and wonder. Adding a citrine crystal to your home will also help you attract the energies you want in life.

Taurus

As the rule-breaking energy of Aquarius moves into your life, you may be in for some big changes. This supermoon may be a good time to hunker down and treat yourself to a herbal foot soak to improve circulation and ease stress.

Gemini

With the full moon rising in Aquarius, another air sign, it’s time to put those worries away. Take the time to sit down and think about all your worries. When things seem too much, try the 4-7-8 breathing technique, in which you breathe in for four counts, hold your breath for seven counts, and then breathe out for eight counts.

Cancer

With Aquarius’s free-spirited energy shining brightly during this supermoon, Cancer might want to let go of that emotional baggage. As a natural empath, your energy makes people want to share their problems with you. But maybe it’s time to take some time for yourself. The moonstone is a healing stone for your water sign and will help you release inner tensions.

Leo

It’s your birthday season, so it’s no surprise that this supermoon will be your time to shine, Leo. The azure colors of lapis lazuli crystals will help you bring your inner energy and your outer self into perfect harmony.

Virgo

You are becoming aware of new core beliefs. It takes courage to change your core beliefs. Instead of running away and giving up your old ideas, try to mix them with the new ones to make your own philosophy that only makes sense to you. We are always changing, so it makes sense to change your road map.

Libra

Your outgoing personality makes it easy for you to meet new people, but the creative peak of this lunar cycle wants you to show some love to yourself. If you’ve been having a lot of conflicting thoughts, try meditating first thing in the morning to get clear on what you want to do that day.

Scorpio

Even though things have been going well at work, you may need to use the compassionate side of the Leo supermoon for some personal matters. Use grounding exercises, like breathing through each nostril in turn, to help you deal with the anger that comes naturally to you as a water sign.

Sagittarius

The Aquarius supermoon could throw you some curveballs, but you’re a happy-go-lucky sign, so you should be able to handle them. Find some time for yourself and go to an aromatherapy spa if you feel like you need to get your creative juices flowing again.

Capricorn

The full moon always makes people feel extra emotional, so you might find yourself trusting your gut and living in the moment more than your usually cautious brain would have. Take advantage of the Aquarius energy of this supermoon by getting a Reiki massage to calm and center yourself.

Aquarius

This supermoon is your moon, Aquarius, and the double flow of rebellion will take your life in new directions. Don’t be afraid to try to beat your own records, whether you’re at work or at the gym. An endorphin-boosting Zumba session is a great way to do this.

Pisces

Pisces lives like a fairytale, and the dreamy energy of the supermoon could be a good time to focus on emotional catharsis through healing affirmations with an aquamarine crystal that will help you channel your inner power and strength.
