Full Moon in Aquarius & Lunar Lughnasadh with Ritual Suggestions

The Full Moon in Aquarius arrives on July 29th at 7:36 AM PT. Air sign Aquarius is bringing in winds of change and transformation. The Aquarius nature, the Visionary, calls us to release old patterns and move towards our soul's visions for our personal lives as well as the greater collective.

We also crossed the threshold of the Lunar Nodes shifting onto the Leo-Aquarius axis on July 26th. This powerful transition initiated an 18-month collective journey, inviting us to strike a sacred balance between our personal creative fire and our devotion to the collective. As we celebrate Lughnasadh, the South Node in Leo asks us to release the need for superficial validation, performance, or ego-driven pride, while the North Node in Aquarius calls us forward into authentic, community-minded collaboration.

Despite the fact we have passed Solar Gate of Lughnasadh (which was August 7th, when the Sun is 15 degrees Leo) and the Star Gate of Lion’s Gate, which peaked 8/8 in Egypt (and will happen at different times around the world in the weeks ahead), we are now at the point of Lunar Lughnasadh. 

Lughnasadh is the sacred harvest festival and the point between Summer Solstice and Autumnal Equinox. During this time we connect to both abundance and gratitude). You can read more about that in this post here.

Some Ritual Suggestions for the Aquarius Full Moon & Lunar Lughnasadh:
  • Give Gratitude for the Plenty: At the completion of this harvest that has been, a final thanksgiving can be made for all the gifts. Gifts of experiences, including those that have been challenging during this time, are especially potent to reflect on at this time. Consider writing each one down on paper and putting it under the moonlight.

  • Voice Your Truth - Speaking your words into the high summer wind, get clear on where you are ready to ripen, create, and offer your unique medicine to the world. As this Jupiter in Leo transit illuminates your inner sovereignty, speak your sacred intentions into the wind to channel this radiant expansion.

  • Dance & Celebrate in community - Open yourself up to your friends and family, this is the height of the season of connection. Dance, move and rise your internal flame - really celebrate the connections you have with brothers and sisters around you.

  • Reconnect with Your Inner Child’s Heart - Leo’s energy resonates deeply with the heart and our innate creative instincts, often rooted in our childhood. Choose a creative activity you cherished as a child and spend time engaging in it fully and joyfully. Embrace the playfulness and freedom that arises when you release expectations and simply live the moment. This act of reconnecting may spark new ideas and insights for other areas of your life.

Have a wonderful Full Moon and Lunar Lughnasadh!
