August's Full Moon is the second to occur in tropical Aquarius in 2021. And straddling the final degree of Aquarius (known as the anaretic degree), there is likely an explosive quality to this lunation, one that feels like an inevitable or fated culmination and conclusion that can pervade both personal and collective dimensions.

Like the Aquarian Full Moon in late July, the polarity of personal versus collective desires is central here. Is what's best for the collective always best for every individual? Is what's best for the individual sometimes hindering collective agendas?

There is a breaking point being reached here in this current conversation that will continue as Jupiter and Saturn transit through Aquarius, and even further and more seriously as Pluto enters Aquarius beginning in 2023. We will face the apparent consequences to the extreme points of view come 2023 and beyond.

However, Jupiter's conjunction to this lunation adds an expansive, optimistic, and opportunistic dimension, bringing to fruition rewards, open doors, and a peak to inflammatory situations. Jupiter augments collaborative endeavors as well as genius, lone-wolf strategies. What emerges alongside this Full Moon can empower us further toward both freedom and interconnectedness.

A Full Moon in Aquarius conjunct Jupiter can also emphasize taking bold and unusual actions. Be mindful of how far you expand or how radical the position you take over the next few days. However, connecting in with this lunation deeply can give us access to greater authenticity and truth. Listen to your calling and choose the open doors that feel right for you.
