The upcoming Full Moon in Aquarius, on August 19, 2024 at 11:25 am MST, brings a surge of innovative energy, amplified by a complex astrological configuration known as a T-square. This Full Moon, positioned at 27 degrees Aquarius, forms a T-square with the Sun and Mercury conjunct in Leo, and Uranus in Taurus. Adding to the celestial drama, another T-square occurs simultaneously, involving Venus in Virgo, Jupiter and Mars in Gemini, and Saturn retrograde in Pisces, all meeting between 17-19 degrees of their respective signs. This may very well be the most volatile, pressure filled, emotionally charged, full moon of the entire year! But before you run away and hide out, let's look at the things you can focus on to help embrace the change that is coming.
General Advice for Navigating the Full Moon in Aquarius
1.   Embrace Change: Aquarius energy encourages innovation and forward-thinking. Be open to new ideas and perspectives.
2.   Balance Independence and Community: While Aquarius values individuality, it also focuses on collective well-being. Find a balance between your personal needs and your role within the community.
3.   Reflect on Progress: Full Moons are times of culmination. Reflect on the progress you've made since the New Moon in Aquarius six months earlier.
4.   Practice Detachment: Aquarius is an air sign associated with detachment and objectivity. Use this time to gain perspective on emotional issues without getting too entangled in them.

Understanding the T-Squares
A T-square is a challenging aspect that involves three planets in which two planets oppose each other and both form a square to a third planet. This creates tension and dynamic energy, pushing us towards growth and resolution.
1.   Full Moon T-Square:
o  Moon in Aquarius: Emphasizes emotional independence, innovation, and humanitarian ideals.Â
o  Sun and Mercury in Leo: Highlights self-expression, creativity, and communication. With the latest Mercury Cazimi, recently concluded, we may be having some big aha moments at the time of this full moon.
o  Uranus in Taurus: Brings unexpected changes, financial disruptions, and a need for freedom. This is the current ruling planet of this Full Moon. Whatever is happening to the Full Moon's ruler, is a major influence on how things will conclude for you. With this being Uranus, the best you can do is expect things to not turn out as expected. You will need to practice that detachment mentioned above, in a BIG WAY!
All that to say, that in order to conclude your goals associated with the Full Moon in Aquarius, you will feel a tremendous amount of pressure. This can be a stressful time on your mind, with the activation of Uranus, and the recent Sun and Mercury Cazimi energy still at play. This is the time however to make incredible breakthroughs, to clear the cobwebs, and most importantly to find your tribe, and realize where you fit in.
2.   Additional T-Square:
o  Venus in Virgo: Focuses on practical love, health, and service.
o  Jupiter and Mars in Gemini: Expands and energizes communication, learning, and adaptability.
o  Saturn Retrograde in Pisces: Reflects on spiritual lessons, boundaries, and restructuring old patterns. This is the traditional ruler of the sign of Aquarius. With both rulers under pressure at the time of the Full Moon it will be difficult to conclude what's needed at this time, without putting in the hard work.
This added pressure at the time of the Full Moon, makes for an emotional crossroads. You may have challenges deciding the path to take at this time.  The exit point to this pressure lies with Jupiter and Mars in Gemini. A sign that rules duality, two sides, the twins. Jupiter will suggest that you take the path that is for your highest good, and offers the way forward that is filled with truth and justice. Mars motivates you to fight for what is right.
3.   Chiron Influence: Chiron in the sign of Aries is retrograde and making a favorable connection to the Sun, Mercury, and Moon. There is something from the past that can be healed at the time of this full moon. There is work involved of course to heal. This can bring a dramatic end to something that has been causing the collective a lot of pain and suffering as well.
4. Mercury Retrograde: Because of the retrograde do not try to start something new because of what is coming to fullness. If you have to start something new business wise, do it as a Pilot project only. There will be a lot of rework necessary. What ever you try to start will not go as expected. There will be things you have to review, and then relaunch in September, most likely, after the New Moon in Virgo.
