Understanding Moon Phases
The Full Moon is a time of culmination and the promise of fulfillment of that which was started at the New Moon. This is the time for completion, letting go, and rest. Use this energy to journal, meditate, and charge your crystals.
Below is a little cheat sheet graphic you can save to help you determine the best activities for all phases. I’ve also created a blog post for those of you who want to read more about how to use moon phases. You can find that post here.
About this full moon
According to Cafe Astrology there will be a natural tension between Leo’s individual pride and Aquarius’s focus on community and group spirit. This lunation illuminates buried feelings and brings projects to a turning point, awakening a desire for meaningful goals and humanitarian pursuits.
While a Mars-Saturn opposition may create some stress and a “stop-and-go” energy, the Full Moon is also supported by a hopeful Venus-Jupiter conjunction, which encourages focusing on relationships and enjoyment as you navigate this powerful emotional time.

Pile 1 – Rose Quartz
You’ve taken or are thinking of taking a “leap of faith,” and this is a good move, even if you’re getting not-so-great feedback from the people around you.
Sometimes you just have to make moves that nobody around you will understand or agree with. As a matter of fact, it’s common to have little to no support from the people you thought would have your back. They may not understand where you’re coming from or may project their own fears onto you. A person can have great intentions but act or advise poorly.
There is an element of distraction here as well. That leap of faith may bring many new ideas or opportunities to you, but while flexibility is needed, you must not travel down every path that crosses this one. If you’d like to explore some of those opportunities or ideas, be selective and make sure they are supportive of your end goal.
The main message here is to stay focused and committed, as your dedication is even more important than the path you choose. Complete one thing before jumping into another, and make sure you give things plenty of time to show results before you decide they’re not working. Good foundations aren’t built overnight!
Pile 2 – Silk Agate
You’ve got a decision to make, and I know it isn’t an easy one! If it were a clear choice of right and wrong, it would be much easier, but unfortunately, there’s a whole bunch of gray area here. Your decision will not just impact your own life; it will affect the lives of others as well.
There is more to this decision than immediate or obvious effects, so make sure to think about what this could mean in the long term. For example, if someone you love asks you for money, but they’re dealing with addiction, you might both feel better in the moment, but you would only be delaying their recovery.
However this energy shows up for you, it seems as if the hardest choice may be the best one. It might create some chaos, headaches, or hurt feelings at first, but that will pass. Do the hard thing and stand your ground!
Pile 3 – Black Tourmaline
You may have recently started something new or may even have had a difficult situation thrust upon you. Maybe you feel like you’re not getting anywhere or are unable to see the light at the end of the tunnel. Your message is telling you that a shift in perspective is needed here.
If you’re on a new path, remember that there is a lot to learn and experience before you can begin to feel comfortable in those new shoes. If you’re dealing with a difficult situation, you’re being advised to shift your focus from what’s wrong to what’s right. There may be a creative solution, or maybe some time is all that’s needed.
Gratitude is going to be incredibly helpful here, so count those blessings and look for the good in this situation. If you’re so focused on what’s wrong, you’re likely to miss opportunities that are or will soon be available to you. Make the best of what you’ve got!
Pile 4 – Black Agate
Just because you can do things all by yourself doesn’t mean you should! There is great power in teamwork and community that you are being advised to utilize right now. Good things are coming regardless, but involving others will make this experience so much richer for you and anybody else involved.
Including others in this thing will be the difference between creating something that works and something that shines!
If you’re dealing with someone who should be doing the thing but is giving you a hard time, you are being advised to change your approach. Framing it in a way that feeds their ego a bit will be helpful.
A great example of this is trying to get your kid to do chores. Telling them they need to do something is a prime opportunity for pushback. Instead, you might tell them you need their help. It seems like a small difference, but the tone and words you use have a huge impact on the response you receive.
