Full Moon in Aquarius – August 9, 2025
Welcome to the Full Moon in Aquarius for 2025. Let’s get weird! Aquarius energy is lighting up the sky during this lunation, infusing everything from our aspirations and self-expression to our friendships and relationships. With Uranus, one of Aquarius’s ruling planets, at the helm, we’re being called to double down on our passions and embrace our most authentic selves without apology.
This lunation activates the Leo–Aquarius axis, which invites us to explore the dance between self and society, the One versus the Many. Leo has had us rooted in self-expression for the past few weeks, asking, “Who do I desire to be?” Now, Aquarius flips the script and asks, “How does what I offer serve the collective?”
This is a beautiful time to reflect on how you’re showing up in your communities. You might feel inspired to volunteer, explore conservation efforts, hit the thrift stores, or dive into collective projects. These urges? That’s Aquarius doing its thing, blending innovation, eccentricity, and social connection.
This Full Moon isn’t just about epiphanies; it’s about action. The cosmos reminds us that change doesn’t come from wishful thinking. We’ve got to walk the talk and put our energy where our intentions are.
Adding to the cosmic mix, several goddess asteroids are active in this lunation, bringing waves of divine feminine energy to Earth. Most notably, Chariklo, sacred companion to Chiron and known as the Oracle of Spirit Medicine, is here to support us in healing. Her presence makes this an ideal time to tend to your inner child, practice self-care, and tune into the quiet wisdom of your body. Those subtle nudges? They’re your inner knowing speaking through your physical form.
As if that weren’t enough, this Full Moon also aligns with the Lion’s Gate Portal, which peaks just one day before. This portal is one of the most potent energetic windows of the year. Lost knowledge stirs, ancestral wisdom draws near, and spiritual insights flow more freely.
The time for personal and ancestral revelation is now. Let this Full Moon amplify that high-frequency energy and open the door to spirit realm connection. Notice synchronicities. Pay attention to dreams. Follow the signs. And don’t forget to record your experiences in your Book of Mirrors. You’ll want to revisit them.
Your Horoscope for the Full Moon in Aquarius
Aries: The moon is highlighting your social life this time around, and it’s a great time to lean into your networking efforts, attend a speed-dating event, or get out and try something new in your social life.
Taurus: Your professional life is about to explode. You may find a promotion, a new job offer, or an unexpected opportunity lands at your feet this month.

Cancer: It might be time to take your relationship to the next level or finally get to the resolution you know you’ve been avoiding. If you’re aligned with your romantic partner, use this time to strengthen your relationship. If not, it might be time to confront some uncomfortable truths.
Leo: Your partnerships will be highlighted under the Full Moon. This can be your romantic relationships, but may also include partnerships of other types: professional, community, etc.
Virgo: Are you currently in a professional transition, or are you considering a move? Use the energy of the Full Moon to help you tidy up loose ends, reevaluate what you want from your career, and set a big change into motion. That change could be outside your work routine and your self-care or health habits instead.
Libra: Put yourself out there, both romantically and in your social and professional lives. Make plans with someone interesting and keep those plans! Indulge your creativity and let it show up in planning your day dates or social events.
Scorpio: Your home and family will take center stage with this Full Moon. This may look like nesting and tidying up your physical space or making a big decision about where to live next. Be sure to take your family members’ thoughts and feelings into account as you make plans.
Sagittarius: Your usual brilliance is going to be shining big time this Full Moon. Step into the leadership role you’ve been offered or use your creativity to redesign your website or update your portfolio. Maybe your personal branding is due for a revamp?
Capricorn: Money will start flowing your way, and it’s a great time to invest your wealth wisely, whether it be monetary or energetic wealth. Toss your name in the ring for a new promotion or brand partnership.
Aquarius: This is your Full Moon, Aquarius, and you’re being called to step up and stand in your power. You’re the queen, and it’s time to act like it. There’s a big shift that’s been happening over the past six months, and now it’s ready to manifest publicly. You might find it reflected in your personal relationships, too!
Pisces: Take a big, deep breath. Leo season and the Aquarius Full Moon can feel overwhelming, and you may feel a little burned out lately. Use a PTO day and take yourself to the spa, or spend the day watching Netflix in your pajamas. You give so much to other people, and it’s time to give something back to yourself.
Happy Full Moon, witches!
