Full Moon in Aquarius Chart: August 9th, 2025

A Full Moon occurs when the Sun in Leo at 17 degrees and 0 minutes forms an opposition to the Moon in Aquarius at 17 degrees and 0 minutes.

Our feelings blossom now. Full Moons are about connecting us with things we already know but aren’t acknowledging, such as buried feelings, or they bring secrets to light and projects to a turning point.

The Full Moon is a time of culmination and the promise of fulfillment of that which was started at the New Moon. It is an emotional time – a time of romance, fertilization, and relationships.

The Leo Sun is proud and intensely individual–not content with simply being just one of the team. The Aquarius Moon, while individualistic as well, values independence and the team, community, and group spirit. The Full Moon illuminates this conflict.

When a Full Moon occurs, we can suddenly burst forth with proclamations and outpours that seem fresh and new, simply because they are not yet rationalized. In fact, a Full Moon illuminates feelings, attitudes, and circumstances that are already in existence.

This is a time of awakening to the need for others or to answer to humanitarian impulses.

Because this lunation occurs around the same time Mars in Libra opposes Saturn and Neptune in Aries, there can be some tension now.  With this configuration, a quest for more meaningfulness in our pursuits can be behind some of the stress we feel now. There could be a choice about sacrificing something for a cause or a better future. It can be hard to rise to challenges now. Our energy is stop-and-go, and we can feel depleted until we not only find inspiration but have a plan to work toward our goals.

Similarly, a course of action may be difficult to formulate or follow. It can be a time when we attach a higher meaning to our struggles or need an incentive to carry on our plans.

On our pursuit of more meaningful goals, it’s important to stay focused and determined. We should be wary of trickery and deceit that may lead us astray, and instead, stay true to our path. This steadfastness will guide us towards our desired outcomes.

This Full Moon also occurs with Venus applying to a conjunction with Jupiter, offering us much promise and hope. A desire to enjoy ourselves or grow our relationships can be motivators now. Our need for love and affection runs high.
