Hello chicks!!! Saturation, fatigue and difficulty falling asleep or having a calm mind have been noticeable in this week preceding the Full Moon, which will be perfected this Monday, August 19 in the afternoon. Have you ever received strange messages? Are you preparing for any disruptive experiences these days?
In the astrological menu for this lunation we have everything!
🌕 Luminaires in exact square to Uranus
📡 Uranus about to enter retrograde (September 1)
🌋 Pluto in Aquarius about to change signs (September 2)
🕯️ Mercury halfway through its retrograde (27ºLeo)
🧊 Exact opposition of Venus and Saturn
🔭 Exact square of Jupiter and Saturn
✍ One of those electric and revealing nights when I was having trouble sleeping, I began to empty my ideas onto paper, and taking advantage of the little flame of Mercury Rx in Leo I looked in my old journals for what I was doing six months ago when we crashed that storm. Do you remember your mental state, your ideas, your relationships, your projects… at the time?

For my part, six months ago, during the New Moon in Aquarius (February 9, 2024) I did something that I had never done before. I moved a huge world of energy. I broke boundaries and took a risk. The shell of an old sense of responsibility that I had imposed on myself collapsed under its own weight. And I had to face, know and love a new part of me that had never been expressed. Six months later, I couldn’t be more grateful.
Being free is not easy, because breaking patterns releases many insecurities: when we follow a path that has not been mapped out, we have no reference in what we do and we have no framework to measure whether this is right or whether it will work.
Other times, being free and breaking patterns means carrying for a time the strange elastic of guilt, which sometimes stretches and lets itself be accompanied without stopping us from moving forward, sometimes gets tangled around our feet to persuade us. to get back to where we are, you don’t have to go back.
At this point, we all have opinions about personal freedom, the fragility of the world, and the lack of control we have in the hurricane of uncertainty. All this is part of this lunation, as we know, which tends to push current events, atmospheric and natural phenomena, discursive struggles to the extreme…
On the plus side, this Full Moon could also lead to another discovery, if we are hit by the illuminating – and capricious – ray of Uranus. 💡
Freedom from what exists over there This is generally easily understood, in terms of revolutions that make us take a qualitative leap, move away from the normative and demolish it like someone knocking down a wall with a sledgehammer. What is more Aquarius than affirming the different, the diverse and the strange as a legitimate right to life?
Good, good. But… how to get along with freedom inside?
Very often, we hide behind responsibilities and obstacles to preserve a certain image of ourselves or status quo. “If I don’t This “That’s why, but I wish I could.” Can you imagine how terrifying and frightening it would be if, with a simple snap of a finger, everything that limits us was removed to make room for our desire, immediately?
There are dreams, life projects and utopias that we inhabit abstractly, with the certainty that they are inaccessible and will not disrupt too much our previous order. As long as they are just a golden dream and nothing more, they won’t ask too much of us. Sometimes our utopia is even the resource we use to continue putting up with something that is wrong. I resist, because the day will come when… And that day never comes, because we never fly there.
Breaking free is scary. Because it means breaking away from something we are already accustomed to seeking out again, with all the uncertainty and insecurity that comes with leaving the usual refuge. In fact, the times when we can truly choose are usually very stressful, because any major decision is a turning point and a breaking point.
Every decision is a risk. But to break free, you often have to decide with all the consequences and chart a new path. Even if it’s dizzying.
This Full Moon occurs at the end of Aquarius, exactly square to Uranus. Meanwhile, Mercury reaches its midpoint of retrograde, the Saturn-Venus opposition perfects, and a thousand other things, all at once. But I would focus on something that goes a little more unnoticed. And, in the same sign that illuminates this liberating and unstable full moon, is Pluto.
If freedom is anything, assuming the personal power to exercise it is a transformative act. Because it not only implies that we represent ourselves in the light of our personal, free and powerful abilities and power, but that we also accept the immense shadow that this new orientation casts.
The Light of this Full Moon is electrifying. It attracts us like a lamp attracts moths. It’s so intense that it makes the sunflowers spin at night. Is there a part of you that you didn’t know was yours that is already there? This Full Moon would be the milestone of its discovery. It’s strange. It’s unclear how it grew to this extent, from a neglected seed that fell on the side of the road six months ago.
But you see. A pupil with psychedelic iridescence opens, and inside is a ladder to the clouds. Up there is the musical comedy of… This is the Age of Aquarius. 🌈🌼 Let’s not waste the opportunity to be eccentric. It’s not the night to sleep a wink!
Happy Full Moon and a giant hug!
