Full Aquarius Moon August 9, 2025

August 8, 2025 is the Opening of the Lion's Gate Portal. It's a powerful date on which the Sun, Earth, and Sirius align. This year the planetary configurations include 2 Kites, a Mystic Rectangle and a powerful Aquarian Full Moon on August 9th. This truly is the time to step up, connect with others of like-mind and focus your intention on raising your vibration and that of the Earth!

The Kites and Mystic Rectangle are planetary aspect patterns formed when 4 or more planets are harmoniously aligned in Trines and Sextiles. The planets involved in the Kites are Mercury, Mars, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune and Pluto. The 3 planets, all in Air signs, that make up the body of both Kites are the transpersonal outer planets Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto. They form encouraging sextiles to Mercury and Mars, both in compatible Fire signs, encouraging and igniting active exchanges for positive opportunities.

The Mystic Rectangle is a planetary aspect pattern that also connects two compatible Elements, and again those are Fire and Air, elements concerned with inspired connections. Mercury (communication) in Leo forms a sextile to Mars (action and assertion) in Libra and a trine to Neptune (compassion and dreams) in Aries for new visions. While Mars is in a trine to Pluto (transformation) in the Air sign Aquarius bringing an auspicious time to interact with groups and encouraging harmonious exchanges of information.

Let this Full Moon in Aquarius highlight the people and places where you can raise your own vibration and make a difference by serving a higher purpose. As always, remember to keep your head in the stars and your feet on the ground.
