Dear Friend and Reader:
Next week’s Aquarius Full Moon comes just as the Sun enters a new sign (Leo) and just two days after Mercury stations direct. This equates to a lot of energy and emotion building up within you and likely some tension with others. Genevieve Hathaway has interpreted this Full Moon for each of the 12 signs in her Moonshine horoscopes below.
What’s your Moon sign? It’s the sign where the Moon was at the moment of your birth. If you don’t know your Moon sign, you can find out by entering your birth data into Serennu.com. It helps to have your birth time but often that is not necessary. If you’re curious, try reading these horoscopes for your Sun and rising signs for additional layers of insight.
The Aquarius Full Moon occurs just before 2:16 pm EDT on Monday, July 22. (View full chart here.) It’s a fascinating chart with a lot going on — there are planets focusing their energy on the Moon, and a lot of high-energy activity in Cancer, the Moon’s watery home sign.
Directly interacting with the Moon, we have what’s called a yod pattern. In this case, it’s made up by Venus at 1 Virgo in a sextile with Pallas Athene at 1 Cancer, and both are just one sign off from exactly opposing the Moon at 1 Aquarius. The point of opposition is held by the Sun at 1 Leo, which is right smack between Venus and Pallas.
So what exactly does that mean? Essentially the set-up is like a satellite dish, focusing the energy on a single point: the Moon, which represents your emotional body. That Aquarius Moon is either a conduit for humanitarian energy, or it’s ‘too cool for school’. The question being asked is: will you allow yourself to feel the emotional movement enough to actually care about the social issues that are on your mind?
It’s a pressing concern of our time, when we’re pressured to act totally nonchalant in the midst of a forest fire, lest we risk getting overly involved or not seeming hip. That clever Facebook meme about [fill in the blank] gets momentary attention, but it’s not actually action.
Layered on top of this is the conjunction of Mars and Jupiter in Cancer, exact the same day — with the Black Moon Lilith close by. Mars could be stirring up your sense of need and desire, with Jupiter magnifying it all. And Black Moon Lilith represents a lot of what we have not dealt with, be it fear, desire or unattended family material.
Mars and Jupiter conjunct Lilith are saying, “This is what you have not dealt with, all of your disowned stuff; how would you like to deal with it?”
Chances are, Mercury’s backward turn through Cancer has taken you through the territory (possibly stuff around ‘feeling safe’, among other things) and has offered some ideas. It will still be getting its bearings in direct motion and moving very slowly during the Aquarius Full Moon, but that may just give you time to get the message and make a plan.
Yours & truly,
Amanda Painter

Aquarius Full Moon Moonshine Horoscopes | By Genevieve Hathaway
Aries (March 20-April 19) — Over this week’s Aquarius Full Moon, how you relate to the groups you are a part of is shifting and evolving rapidly. This may feel like a burst of energy accompanied by seeing a situation in a new light. What is changing is not necessarily the situation, but rather how you perceive it. An internal pressure is driving for more discernment now about whom you want in your network. You will have a number of options in picking who is around you. Sharing is often one of the most direct ways to experience a deeper sense of meaningful connection, even in a larger group setting. As you navigate these choices, I suggest keeping your vision on not only individuals who invite you into their groups, but those people and networks who have something to teach you as well. — by Genevieve Hathaway

Taurus (April 19-May 20) — You are working through a career choice that may seem to be at odds with a close relationship. I suggest holding off on making any quick decisions, instead proceeding with patience as you work the fine edge of a creative solution. You are taking the long view that this is more a matter of finding an innovative solution rather than seeing your options as mutually exclusive. A partner may be applying pressure for you to speed up resolution on the current situation, though this stems more from a need to understand the changing dynamics. Open communication will go a long way in bringing everyone along as you work and rework the career opportunity and the point where it meets or influences your relationships. The time and energy you invest in these conversations will bring a greater sense of intimacy. — by Genevieve Hathaway

Gemini (May 20-June 21) — Personal philosophies inform much of the way you approach structuring your life and the habits you have. Transitioning from living in old habits that do not apply anymore and acknowledging what is healthy for you require a vision that is based on facts. Think of those facts less as something you look up in a book, and more like information you test and retest to gain an accurate picture of what is real and concrete. As you mold your beliefs to support a healthy emotional state, I suggest holding an overarching emotional feeling of your life. As you build these new habits notice the feeling you get when the decisions you make support nurturing your emotions and sense of worth. You are building the solid foundation for a consistent sense of strength and grounded happiness independent of any external situations. — by Genevieve Hathaway

Cancer (June 21-July 22) — The Full Moon is inviting you to take a risk in terms of the sex you want. I propose that you consider this less as a leap across the Grand Canyon and more like actually letting go of something that has weighed you down in the past. What you are letting go of is the fear and shame that have come from others’ judgments of your desires. As you make contact with a deeper sense of who you are and what is right for you, you’ll be able to move around any inner blocks. Sexual identity involves knowing what you want, need and desire and then sharing that first with yourself and then with others. Over the coming weeks, as you come across new people and experiences, meet them with all your cards on the table. Then note the sensations of confidence that are accompanying holding this position. — by Genevieve Hathaway

Leo (July 22-Aug. 23) — Over this week’s Full Moon, I suggest holding space for close partnerships to change at an organic pace. Your relationships at the moment may feel caught up on something, or like the pressure for change isn’t gaining as much traction as you would like. This feeling of pressure is coming up from within you rather than being applied on you. It is providing you with a leveraging point to orient on the changes you are making. Relationships for you have more to do with pleasure than a power exchange. In the past this has meant you giving more than you get, rather than a two-way street. You are in the process of learning to use a different approach to communicate your needs to a close partner. From these open and honest experiences and conversations strong relationships can be built with a foundation rooted in authenticity and acceptance.— by Genevieve Hathaway

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sep. 22) — You are working through a few realizations surrounding your dad’s inner emotional state and how it affected you growing up. Tension is likely building between his inner experience of existence and how grounded you feel emotionally. This new information will help you connect the dots concerning his emotional health and its impact on any internal splits you’ve experienced between who you are and who you show to the outside world. Take time to reflect on how this affected your ability to consistently feel like the ‘real you’. What you are doing through this investigation is dipping some old but still-hot wounds in soothing, healing waters. As you let this healing balm wash over you, let it also wash away the past, acknowledging that it did impact you but does not dictate how you experience your life in the future. — by Genevieve Hathaway

Libra (Sep. 22-Oct. 23) — At the moment, you are working to resolve a point of tension between your creativity and your sense of self-esteem. This could come with the feeling of the energy pushing through, like it’s building and forcing the issue. Your creativity is particularly fertile now, coming with the sensation that instead of having one innovative way to express an idea you have many ways. The key is to feel that you can put this creativity to use in accomplishing your goals. This involves trusting in your ability to apply your ideas and vision. I suggest that you use any doubts that may arise as a chance to get under and around them, healing them through making contact with your actual potential. — by Genevieve Hathaway

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 22) — Lately you may have been questioning how you can feel a permanent sense of security in a world that seems to be widely different one day to the next. You are making contact with a more accurate picture of how you access emotional stability, a concept that does not include possessiveness, jealousy or managing people. Rather, integrity and respect are two key components for you; so is being surrounded by a strong network of many different types of people. You need to feel that you have equals among your work colleagues, in your home life and in your wider community. Call it a tribe of people who know and openly accept the genuine you, including the parts of yourself you keep hidden away. Accessing these individuals is less about control or manipulating how they see you; it’s about showing up as authentically you, and noticing who responds. — by Genevieve Hathaway

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 22) — As you look to make some changes to your work and home space, I suggest approaching both areas as creative spaces — physical environments through which you express a signature of yourself. Take the time to physically carve out a space in both these places that is your creative workshop – a part of the space in which you have free rein to immerse yourself in your innovative and experimental side. A space where you are free to try new things without concerns of perfection in what you produce. Environments resonating with both your philosophical nature and your explorer nature will provide a nurturing space for you to tap into your core creative energy and use it to guide your work. As you go to work in this new space, continue to remind yourself that what you create has both value and a place in the world. — by Genevieve Hathaway

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 20) — During this week’s Aquarius Full Moon, you are reworking an idea around how you feel about your gifts — those skills that are a direct contribution to the larger world. They make an impact on more than just your local environment, though there may have been times you had a hard time connecting what you have to give and the large sweeping reach it did have. What you have to give back to the world isn’t a magic bullet to instantly fix all problems. Rather, it requires discipline, time and patience to fully apply your skill and see the results of your work. Note how you feel when you do this work, the sense of meaning in your life that comes with sharing skills that are both very personal for you and also make a positive impact in the lives of others. — by Genevieve Hathaway

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) — What it feels like to experience existence as ‘you’ is less a physical structure and more like malleable clay you can continuously re-shape. You are in a process of re-forming your patterns and habits to build healthier, more supportive internal structures. How you experience your existence is changing slightly, like you shifted to the side and suddenly noticed a hidden door that you never saw before. All you need to do is turn sideways to slip through it and into a new space. There are in fact many of these hidden doors and as you shift your perspective slightly you are able to see each one, slipping in and investigating it to try out a different potential emotional pattern. Ultimately, what you are making contact with in this process is an authentic mode of existence, one that provides you with enough flexibility to grow and explore yourself. — by Genevieve Hathaway

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) — You live as much in your dream world as you do in the physical realm — for you they are both just as real and tangible. You may feel now as though you are barely able to straddle both worlds that you occupy, never in one enough to fully grab hold. I suggest taking a deep breath and trusting that you can in fact make the stretch to occupy both very different landscapes at the same time. Notice how you feel about what you are experiencing. As you record this information, you will be able to connect a few dots and learn something useful about how you can live in both the intuitive and physical worlds even as both realms continue to gain complexity. You need to exist in both mediums to survive, and now you are fine-tuning the details of how you do that. — by Genevieve Hathaway
