Hola a todos! Still from Montañita in Ecuador! Guess what's coming up on August 1st? Another Full Moon, and this time it's happening in the sign of Aquarius! A Full Moon occurs when the Sun in Leo forms an opposition to the Moon in Aquarius. It's a time of culmination, like the grand finale of what started during the New Moon. And oh boykie, (a word Anouk, my partner-in-crime here in Montañita, and I use a lot here) emotions run high during this period – it's all about romance, relationships, and fertilization of ideas. So make yourself ready for the energy of this Full Moon. I'm already feeling it, my Goshhh! And you know what makes it even more special? It's gonna be a Supermoon as well! Plus, we will have another Full Moon this month, which doesn't happen very often, but we do get to experience that in August!
Embracing the tension of valuing Team Spirit and community & fierce individuality with intensity
So, on the first of August, get ready for some intense vibes as the Full Moon in Aquarius faces off with the Sun in Leo. The tension between these two signs might make us feel a bit drained, irritable, or emotional, but hey, that's all part of the cosmic dance. You see, the Leo Sun is fiercely proud and has this intense individuality. They don't just want to blend in; they want to stand out from the crowd. On the other hand, the Aquarius Moon also values individuality, but they're all about team spirit, community, and groups. So, you can imagine, the Full Moon shines a spotlight on this inner conflict. And because it will be a Supermoon, emotions will be running high! But my advice as always: Let it go and flow. Dance with the cosmos and surrender, and you're good to go!
Supermoons
Speaking of Supermoons, they happen when the Moon gets a bit closer to us, so it looks bigger and brighter in the sky. It's a very beautiful phenomenon if you can watch the Moon from a higher viewpoint or on the beach. I'm definitely gonna check for a great spot here in Montañita to watch the Full Supermoon in the sky. And believe me, during a Supermoon, the energies get amplified, and everything becomes even more intense than your regular Full Moon.
Finding a balance between your own needs while contributing to the collective
It's incredible how during a Full Moon, we can burst forth with declarations and outpours of emotions that seem fresh and new, even though they were already simmering beneath the surface. The Full Moon has this magical ability to illuminate feelings, attitudes, and situations that were already there, just waiting to come out. This time is like an awakening, pushing us to realize the importance of others and to embrace our humanitarian side. There's this urge to connect with people and be a part of something bigger than ourselves.
Now, let's talk about Aquarius! This zodiac sign is all about bringing people together and making the world a better place with some out-of-the-box thinking. During this Full Moon, it's gonna be a perfect time for some soul-searching. Reflect on those limiting thoughts or beliefs that might be holding you back because now's the time to break free and benefit not only yourself but also your community. It's about finding a balance between your individual needs (thanks to Leo) and contributing to the collective (that's Aquarius for you).
Jupiters influence
Oh, and let me tell you, this particular lunation is squaring Jupiter, which means there's some seriously over-the-top energy connected to our realizations and profound discoveries. Get ready for some major 'aha' moments and grand visions!
Another Full Moon this month
But hold on, that's not all! Brace yourself for another Full Moon on August 31st, and this one is in the gentle sign of Pisces. This second Full Supermoon, also known as the 'Blue Moon,' is all about emotions and intuition. It's going to be a time to dive deep within, listen to your heart, and trust your instincts. Facts are cool, but your feelings and intuition will be your secret weapons during this period!
So there you have it, some cosmic insights for the upcoming Full Moons in August. Keep an eye on those energies, and make the most out of this magical time!
My own experience during this period
I have to be honest, before writing this article, I felt drained, overwhelmed, confused, and even a bit irritated about whether it's time for me and Boho Frequency on one hand, and the many amazing, lovely people I met here and with whom I like to hang out, on the other hand.
I really felt the struggle, more intense than I used to feel. And not only the struggle about me vs. the people around me here but the past few days, I've been contemplating the idea of sharing more about my life in my stories on Instagram, just like I used to do before. I believe that I live life on my terms, and my experiences could inspire many others.
However, a concern arose as I realized that some people may not understand my journey. They might wonder how I achieved this lifestyle and where the financial means come from. In response, I started downplaying my life to avoid standing out among others. But then I questioned myself: why should I do that? I feel like I've discovered something significant, something that the world needs to know! It aligns perfectly with the essence of Boho Frequency - empowering individuals to become free creators of their own reality, unrestricted by any limitations.
So, this realization about me vs. the collective or me TOGETHER with the collective came two days ago to the surface. (Gracias Jupiter, for this insight!)
Yesterday, I was searching for information about the Full Moon of tomorrow, 1 August 2023, and for me, it was immediately an 'aha' moment. "Now I get the struggle from the past 2 days!" This shows how powerful the placement of the Moon in the Universe is. I can always relate to my own blog posts, and that is so beautiful.
