August Full Moon: Turning Point Times and The Aquarius Full Moon Astrology Horoscopes 2024

August Full Moon is a time to stand out of the crowd and let your light shine. This is a time of ripeness, an opportunity to harvest the reward of whatever you have been working on the past few weeks.  Notice what was once unconscious is now being revealed into the light.

The Aquarius Full Moon August 19, 2024 supports creating cosmic connections through the heart. Get out of your box and let go of ego. As the Leo Sun is opposite Aquarius Full Moon, this is a symbol of revealing the radical, radiant heart. Be courageous, proud and strong.

The Full Moon in August suggests epic turning point times as two T squares are present in the sky chart.

Turning point times are amplified at August Full Moon since two potent T squares are present in the astrology chart for Aquarius Full Moon. First, Mars meeting Jupiter in Gemini is now squaring off to sober Saturn this week. Power play dynamics are amplified. The need to assert healthy boundaries with direct communication is needed now more than ever. Then, the erratic Uranus makes a hard right angle to both the Sun and Moon. When planets create this 90 degree angle, known as a T square, literally the energy is “rough around the edges”. 

In what area of your life are you ready to turn a corner? More changes are on the way for September Equinox and another eclipse season. See what the stars have in store for you during these changing times when you schedule a private session.  September schedule is open now. Consult with Kathryn, book online here.


Full Moons are a time of release, expanding what is in the mind and heart. Where do you want to invest your time and energy? The three days near a Full Moon support the attitude of gratitude as the Moon reflects full light of the Sun.

The Sun in the sign of Leo the Lion stands out as the shining star, with natural and charismatic leadership. This supportive solar energy is integrated with the lunar light of the moon in Aquarius, the Water Bearer. Aquarius values group connection and dedicated in service to all. Find your Horoscope with Heart for this August Full Moon for your zodiac sign below.

Aquarius Full Moon is a potent reminder of creating clear intentions with dedicated action to contribute to humanity. Consider, what can I give, rather what can I get? Aquarius is the sign of the future, it is forward thinking and progressive.  However a Mercury retrograde this August suggests think twice before making your move.
