Gibbous and Full Moon

August 27 Monday The Capricorn Moon brings keen awareness of social obligations. Shortcomings and deficiencies are seen from the inside outward. Problems are studied from the top to the bottom. Assumptions, however, may leave a few elements unexamined, especially when they are about the underlying feelings. Appearances may veil the emotions. Capricorn is intellectually inclined and can get bogged down in superfluous rationalizing. Yet such thoughts can provide useful data for anticipating the changes that are coming into shape. The Moon enters her gibbous phase at 6:32 pm, MT, when informative details can bring something to completion. August 28 Tuesday The gibbous Capricorn Moon is void of course this morning. Things loosen up as she shovels off the seriousness of Capricorn until 11:38 am, MT, when she moves into anti-status quo Aquarius. This can be a productive day if different approaches are taken. There’s tension to break away and go for what is wanted. This may take a re-balancing of the flow of one’s energies to channel them into a singular activity. Priorities need to be set. Aquarius can bizarrely rattle cages, even one’s own. Such a shake-up can create cracks in a mind-set. If one takes the time to peek through them, some of the veils covering the mysteries of connections to the divine may fall away. August 29 Wednesday With this Aquarius Moon anything goes, and it’s better with company! Some encounters may be charged with breakthroughs, plentiful, lacking, or woebegone! Concentration can clarify situations and tease up realizations about one’s personal agendas. Do they get in the way and promote a repetitive exercise or do they support exchanges that advance one on life’s evolutionary path. Aquarius is a social sign concerned with the direction society is taking. The Aquarius part of one’s chart strives to be in sync with humanity’s perceived trends unless they are not an improvement for the human race. August 30 Thursday This Aquarius Moon is selective, wanting the best out of each moment. There may, however, be some unattainable longings this morning. There’s a deep urge to collaborate with others, but confusion, or even anti-social behavior, gets in the way. The Moon goes void of course at 11:48 am, MT, for almost five hours of blowing off amiable Aquarius. During this time issues of inner dissatisfaction and spiritual discomfort may come up to process. At 4:31 pm, the Moon moves into anticipating Pisces. This sign listens to what’s in the wind, what’s stirring up the waters, looking out for what tomorrow’s full moon will bring. August 31 Friday We have a Pisces full Moon at 7:58 am, MT, beginning a phase of revealing how ideal are our agreements with higher forces, how intent are we at merging ourselves with exterior evidence of an immensely creative power at work. We are urged to work out social tensions and exchange ideas to get at the essence of the message of this lunation. It is worthwhile to take responsibility for resolving differing factors and deadlocks. September 1 Saturday The Pisces Moon has been gathering our sensitivities to spiritual energies, and at 2:02 pm, MT, goes void of course, rinsing off impressionable Pisces until 11:37 pm, when she moves into intensifying Aries. Throughout Saturday afternoon it would be peaceful to escape to some refreshing spot and imagine a serene world. On Sunday our attention is directed towards exploring our internal life for messages or intimations from Spirit. There are sudden intuitions about changes that would foster the pursuit of a spiritual direction. Patterns emerge that if followed can make the divine spark in nature more accessible.
