Wednesday morning’s Aquarius Full Moon is exceptionally powerful. Here’s a reading to help you make the most of it.

Full Moon Messages

Have you heard about the astrology happening this Wednesday? It’s the Aquarius Full Moon, which is powerful all on its own, but all kinds of other intense stuff is happening too.

This is a time for planting seeds that will come to fruition big time in the year ahead. A time to finally release our petty egos and our people pleasing tendencies for good. And it’s a time to embrace our authenticity like never before. Like we are goddamn authenticity superheroes.

The astrology has been discussed at length elsewhere, so I’ll paraphrase by saying it’s sort of like this. Like at this portal, we can become so bright, so brave, and so pure of heart, that we transform the cultural paradigm from The Imperial March in The Empire Strikes Back to the dancing Ewoks at the end of Return of the Jedi.

…So I thought it would be fun to draw some cards for us for this transformational Full Moon. Here they are.


1. Peace from The Oracle of Portals

Peace from The Oracle of Portals

I wanted to draw a card from The Oracle of Portals first, because every point of power is a portal: a doorway from one way of being to another. I was curious what portal card would show up for us for this moon.

Here is the first bit that stood out to me when I was reading the card description in the guidebook. It encapsulates perfectly the energy I was already sensing the moment I saw the card.

You are at a turning point. Through this portal of peace, you will discover greater harmony and serenity. Your tension will melt. Your mind will settle. Even if you are in the midst of activities, challenges, and responsibilities, you will be able to release worry and find a greater sense of relaxation and freedom.

It’s likely that your ride through life has recently encountered some rough waters and treacherous weather conditions. Rest assured that the waters are about to still, and the skies are about to clear.

…So this is good news!

We can help this peace along by taking care of ourselves lovingly and by meditating daily. If it’s hard for you to justify spending such time and energy on yourself, remember that this is the stuff that puts you in the right frame of mind to help others more effectively.

Listen. We are the empathizers and harmonizers of the world. It is up to us to change the vibe in our homes, our families, our communities, and our world. And the vibe starts with us.

(ICYMI, this closely mirrors the message I offered via video at the New Moon, entitled It’s OK to be OK.)

2. Two of Wands from The Tarot of Secrets

Two of Wands from THE TAROT OF SECRETS

Next, I wanted The Tarot of Secrets to chime in so we could see what alchemical forces are at work.

The entire Guidance section stands out to me:

A creative vision or plans for a new endeavor are coming together. You have identified and gathered the materials you need to build a dazzling firework of success. Celebrate, for you are stoking the fire of a beautiful new condition.

This is a dynamic, flammable time where the sparks of your desire can quickly begin to turn into an inferno. Be clear on what you desire and be ready to act quickly to bring it into physical form. Consciously relax your body and mind so you don’t get overwhelmed by the speed with which things might begin to happen. It is best to be clear-headed, so you will be poised to jump masterfully into the action.

You may be surprised by just how rapidly and successfully things transform. So, expand into possibility rather than contracting out of fear. Expect and welcome in an even grander outcome than you formerly could have foreseen.

So, take some time Tuesday night or Wednesday day to get clear on what you want and to plan out your next steps. Some journal writing is in order. How do you want to feel? What do you want to create? How do you want to transform? Put pen to page. Just start writing and see what flows out.

This reminds me very much of this message I saw from astrologer Chani Nicholas today when I was learning about all the many astrological aspects that are presently at work.

3. Sinann from The Wild Witch Oracle

Sinann from The Wild Witch Oracle

Aha. Wow. This card is called Don’t Wait for Permission. Just right outta the gate, how is that speakin’ to ya???

But there’s more! Check this out:

Don’t wait for the powers that be to give you permission to follow your heart. There are times when you must break the rules to bring forth vital new channels of prosperity and possibility.

[W]hen you recognize the boundary but move forward anyway, you may be required to undergo a challenge, initiation, and transformation. Your success, and your path to that success, will likely look different to what you could have foreseen.

Invoke divine support, act with daring decisiveness, and move forward into your destiny. Forge the path that is illuminated by your soul.

As you may know, every Full Moon encapsulates both the sign it falls in (in this case, Aquarius), and that sign’s polarity (in this case, Leo). That’s because the full moon’s sign is always the polarity of the sign the sun is in.

So, Sinann’s message is very Aquarius full moon. Follow your heart (Leo vibes) and merge it with your audacious uniqueness (Aquarius) and you are in the strike zone.

We must be ourselves if we are to channel our unique gifts. And we must rise above our egos. (The ego voice that wants to keep you small and hidden. And the ego voice that wants to tear you down for not being a mega-influencer or gazillionaire. Same ego, different strategy. Yada yada.)

To change the paradigm, great courage is required. Immense love. A blinding light at the heart. That’s how we level up. That’s how the culture shifts.
