The Fiery August Full Moon in Aquarius
In this episode of The Strategic Oracle, dive deep into how astrological influences—like Mercury Retrograde in Leo and the powerful Lion's Gate portal—invite bold truth-telling, transformation, and courageous self-expression. Discover actionable rituals, reflection prompts, and cosmic wisdom to help you navigate periods of uncertainty, embrace risk, and step into your truest self.
Key Highlights
The Astrological Energy of the August Full Moon
- Mercury Retrograde in Leo: Mercury has been retrograde for several weeks, causing potential confusion, miscommunication, and internal questioning about identity and authenticity.
- Aquarius Full Moon at 17°: This full moon positions the moon in Aquarius and the sun in Leo, urging heightened truthfulness, unique self-expression, and the breaking of outdated patterns.
- Lionsgate Portal (8/8): This cosmic event amplifies manifestation and courage, aligning perfectly with themes of release and authenticity.
Embracing Authenticity During Change
- The energy right now is about shedding everything that isn’t truly yours—old patterns, desires, or societal expectations.
- The cosmos is urging you to be “brutally, rawly, bravely honest” about who you are and what you desire.
Rituals & Practices for the Full Moon
- Visualization and meditation using supportive earth elements like pine flower essence and aquamarine to foster courage and self-acceptance.
- Reflection on what you want to release and what you want to cultivate in this new era.
- Embracing “Shine”—the oracle card for the month—by letting your unique self and gifts be seen without fear of judgment.
Memorable Quotes
- “The remedy for this is for you to be so incredibly, brutally, rawly, bravely honest with who you truly are and what you absolutely desire.”
- “How can you be so raw with your own truth and be brave enough to stand in it, even when it’s messy or it’s stinky?”
Episode Q&A
What does the August Full Moon energy ask of us? [2:46]
The August Full Moon, especially with the moon in Aquarius and sun in Leo, asks us to be radically true to ourselves—breaking old molds and daring to show the world our genuine frequency and signature, not just a polished image.
How does Mercury Retrograde in Leo influence our mindset and communication [1:25]
Mercury Retrograde in Leo leads to distorted communication and self-perception. While Leo usually brings confident, vibrant, expressive energy, the retrograde makes us question if our external persona matches our inner truth, prompting deep self-reflection and recalibration.
What practical steps can listeners take to navigate this transformative energy? [16:32]
Ground yourself through meditation, visualize protective and nurturing energies (like pine and aquamarine), practice non-judgmental self-reflection, bravely release what no longer serves, and let your unique signal lead in relationships.
Action Steps & Next Moves
- Take some quiet, focused time to meditate as described in the episode.
- Journal on the following: “How risky am I willing to be to live my truth?” “What am I ready to let go of, and what is waiting to be born through my authenticity?”
- Allow new ambitions, ideas, and directions to take root, knowing the cosmos supports bold transformation right now.
