The Aquarius Full Moon occurs at 12:00PM EDT on August 3rd, 2020 @ 12º Aquarius/Leo.
Specifics of note: The lunation is just separating from a square to Uranus in Taurus; the void of the T-Square formed is in Scorpio. Saturn & Uranus are rulers of the Moon, Sun is in it’s own Sign. Rulers of Scorpio, Mars and Pluto, are applying square with involvement from Jupiter and Saturn. Much more going on but that is suitable to note for my jumping off point.
Personal Note: I was meditating upon this lunation and when the inspiration fully realized it came forth in a torrent on Twitter. I am posting the entirety of that stream here without edit so please note that it’s original formatting was “tweets”. I am quite busy, as are we all, and I need to economize my time but wanted to address the full moon. Hoping the post is easily digestible. Be Well!
I was neither born into, nor raised within, an environment of stability or kindness. I had no positive authority figures, no leaders I could trust. To survive I had to acknowledge that those that were “charged” with my well-being had no intentions of fulfilling their duties.
To survive I had to see that my abusive authority figures never had any intention of fulfilling any of their promises to me. I learned that it was never really about who I was or wasn’t, what I did or didn’t do, what I said or didn’t say.
I learned that to continue to have expectations of individuals that are abusive to you is welcoming more abuse. Expecting such people to change is a waste of time. They may or they may not. When you’re life is in the balance I suggest not playing the odds on that one.
To truly live I had to walk away from everything and everyone that perpetuated, or was complicit to, the unhealthy environment that was going to kill me. Walking away meant stepping into an environment that was utterly foreign to me in every way.
In my new environment I had to learn my self -worth. I had to learn that truly living meant never allowing myself to be abused or be accepting of someone else’s scraps. I learned to be co-operative; not co-dependent.
And maybe most importantly I learned to sincerely bless all, understanding that within the act, was my own blessing. Yet the blessing of all does not require me to “suffer fools”. I co-operate with those that would return my blessing. The rest I release without expectation.
My reason for sharing this is I see the parallel in my life on the National stage now. Abusers do not deserve to be called leaders. We should not be begging for scraps. We should not be expecting certain individuals to change. We should not be fooled by false promises.
We should be walking away from those people, and things, that do not foster our well-being. We should be putting our time to better use than continual debate on whom or what may come around and “do the right” thing.
We should be stepping into new environments that, though they may feel foreign, offer us the best chance to truly live. We should be setting our bar high. We should be doing this even as what we leave behind is falling. You cannot enlighten those that choose to stay ignorant.
I feel we are at a choice point. I will not lend my energy to a malicious system that operates through an abuser/victim modality. I opt out of the narratives perpetuating that existence. I’m going to step into the foreign because I think my life depends on it.
I don’t think our Nation will be healed in the ways that many believe. It is past that point. I do think our Nation can be resurrected from the ashes into something far greater than we can now imagine. It will require intentional thoughts brought to acts.
It will require the recognition that to truly exercise the power that is inherently ours we must stop giving it away. We must stop “suffering fools”. We must stop trying to support what is abusing us. We must act as if our lives depend on it.
~In the end is the beginning~
