Full Moon in Aquarius energy thesaurus: transmuting, transformative, born-again, cathartic, life-changing, transformational, metamorphic, reframing.
With this Full Moon on August 11/12th the energies of the transformative Uranus / Mars / North Node conjunction peak, extending onto the Leo/Aquarius axis and forming the Grand Cross with the Scorpio South Node. This is our Cosmic Cleanse, channeling deep life realizations and bestowing cathartic shifts.
The ruler of this Full Moon, Uranus is the Paradigm-Shifter, The Rebel, the Force For Change, the Inventor, the Idealist, and also the Genius! If you follow his call he will bring novelty, excitement, and out of this world solutions in the galactic spirit of transgressing the old and outdated! However, if you resist his brilliant, electric ways trying to hold onto the status quo he will send shock waves, in the form of upsetting circumstances or people so you can get out of your own shell and the linear path.
GRAND CROSS
Grand Cross has a lot of bad rep, and there are plenty of reasons for it. Mostly, it brings condense karmic bonding, in which the soul at its entry into the human realm, made a commitment to live through its highest potential in a fast transformative cycle taking upon itself the most difficult of tasks in divine conviction that she will overcome all obstacles to emerge as a diamond with spiritual healing power touching onto all that comes into contact with her.

Let’s face it, the world we live in is so eager to break us through the multitude of all the human misunderstandings and emotional scares, that the soul’s pure intentions are easily clouded. Now, all of the Light Workers, Starseeds, Galactic Guides, and Angelic channelers, node their heads as if at the best ever EDM Amsterdam rave with synth-pop, electro house and New York illbient (love you Dok Gregory) simultaneously creating electromagnetic field of all knowing. Then with PRONE dj’ing the Caribbean reggae smoothly comes in, and we all cry realizing that ONE LOVE is all we need, and all that ever mattered. This is the Aquarian Portal energy! It invites us into heavens so we could bring a piece of it with us back to the Earth and into our daily human lives.
This Full Moon on the Leo / Aquarius axis creates opportunities to understand the symbols and cycles that govern our civilization. Sun opposition Moon opens up the Aquarian Portal, showing us a glimpse of what is possible if the ego and soul energies resolve the polarity: the individual and the collective, the personal and the universal. Those cosmic tensions expand our understanding and our comfort zones towards the direction we need to go in order to serve our soul’s highest purpose.
Through the Aquarian Portal we enter the Aquarian Paradigm-shifting, Uranus the ruler of this Full Moon solves the problem from outside the problem, rendering it irrelevant. Moving to the new level requires a complete disruption and reorganization of all the information from the old level; revolutionary energies may bring on chaos so as to reorganize the system into a new entity.
Uranus brings the capacity to change dimensions – share your intuitive insights with others so the “critical mass” needed for the paradigm shift can be reached!
Many thanks to my dear friend Dana Jammal, PhD psychologist from Lebanon who is the inspiration for the Grand Cross channeling as well as many of my spiritual realizations and deep psychological shifts – in a truly quantum fashion.
When does the Era of Aquarius begin?
To answer this question all astrologers, whether Western or Hindu use the same indicator using the Sidereal (Vedic) system, and the indicator called Sidereal Vernal Point which tells us which era our civilization is situated in. Sidereal Vernal Point moves slowly, for the last 2000 year has been within the constellation of Pisces moving towards Aquarius and as of July 2021 it is at 4 degrees of Pisces. By 2050 it will reach 4 degrees 32 minutes 44 seconds of Pisces, and it will move to the sign of Aquarius circa 2300 – where we all shall meet in our future karmic forms… Mind your KARMIC lessons (!)
Which one do you follow? Jyotish, Sidereal astrology or Western, Tropical?! Vedic is focused on the Moon with its 27 Nakshatras (Moon Mansions) and Western is Sun based emphasizing 12 Zodiac signs. Vedic follows the actual constellations giving us the astronomical view of the sky while Western is man made, frozen is time some 2000 years ago and based on March Equinox set for 0 degrees of Aries.
I follow both systems. But mostly I love looking up towards the sky just like the ancient priestesses did long time ago…
Moon conjunct Saturn
Major aspect of this Full Moon is the Moon / Saturn conjunction opposing the Sun…. Under the Moon/ Saturn spell we tend to identify emotions with material things, it can also be draining and depressing so make conscious effort to keep things light, and turn off the inner critic. As this aspect highlights the practical side of our lives, it often helps us to accomplish a great deal of work. The most positive expression to be expected is an approach of practical realism and common sense, the negative on the other hand is letting yourself indulge in negativity seeing only the dark side of life.
FULL MOON recap
This Full Moon connected to the energy of Uranus intensifies psychic experiences so open yourself up to premonitions, lucid dreaming, subtle changes in your auric field, whichever psychic modality you are familiar with.
This is also a good time to let the past die – all Scorpio points in your chart + realizations of the Uranus / Mars / North Node – and move towards a new emotional base in terms of building your own security. Getting rid of what no longer serves us and our emotional wellbeing means that we know our shadow therefore we also know our power without projecting those energies onto other people.
Plus, Aquarius Playlist by Sarah Penello to groove you into the paradigm shift with the cosmic rainfall of DOWNLOADS! Aquarius, the water bearer, is often mistaken for a water sign, because of this relationship to the rain. But rain actually originates in the heavens, where water floats upon the air, and then raindrops ride the wind before falling down to earth.
