As if August’s retrograde Mercury wasn’t challenging enough, another chaotic cosmic moment is on the horizon — the full moon in Aquarius on August 19.
This full moon is the first supermoon of the year and one of the most intense astrologically. Right now, the planets are collectively working to push all zodiac signs toward powerful changes and big decisions.

But of course, growth comes with pains, and it will be especially potent for the zodiac signs most affected by August’s full moon.
Leo (July 23 to August 22)
This full moon is the closing act of your birthday season, Leo — so naturally, you wouldn’t expect it to be anything less than dramatic, right? The sun in your sign is facing off against the full moon on August 19, and both planets are clashing with the wild planet Uranus, bringing revelations and unexpected changes in business and romantic partnerships.
You are learning many lessons about how to show up more authentically in the world, and this full moon will push you to rise up and face any feelings that are bubbling to the surface now — especially if they relate to any commitments you’ve made to others or interpersonal bonds you’re trying to build.
The sun in your sign is also in a tight conjunction with retrograde Mercury at the time of the full moon, and this backspin has made it hard to see yourself through the eyes of others, potentially making you question who you are. But this lunation is bringing everything to the surface — the good and the bad — so take this moment of clarity and try to look at yourself with compassion.
Aquarius (January 20 to February 18)
The biggest lunation of August is happening in your sign, so it’s time to hold up a mirror to your insecurities and start figuring out how to build confidence in their place. Don’t be afraid to shed your old skins, because ready or not, it’s time to start evolving into a more authentic version of yourself.
You don’t need to follow the status quo or live up to anyone’s expectations but your own, so invoke your rebellious streak and start letting go of anything that doesn’t feel aligned with who you are inside.
Your wild ruling planet Uranus will be squaring off with the sun and full moon during this lunation, giving your lunar experience an even more unpredictable flavor. Your comfort zone is starting to feel tight, so challenge yourself to explore beyond the limits you’ve set for yourself and start creating a new set of rules to live by.
