What August 2023's Full Moon in Pisces means for your star sign

Aug 26, 2023

The next Full Moon is on August 30 (the second of the month, and a super moon which means it’s even more powerful), in the sun sign of Virgo and therefore its opposing sign of Pisces.

Full Moons always bring a pause in the month to reflect, ponder, contemplate, review, and release. More thought than action.

This Full Moon’s Pisces vibe brings that sign’s traits into play – creativity, imagination, intuition, even psychic skills. The super moon status enhances that and deepens the strength of the powers available to you.

This is the Moon to do your psychic stuff, be it meditating with crystals, reading your own cards, seeing a psychic, conducting a séance, or scrying. Whatever works for you.

Let the tarot guide you towards how you can tune in to your psychic ability this Full Moon…

March 21 to April 20

Tarot card for Aries for the Full Moon in Pisces: The Devil

Meaning: Shadow work. That is your Full Moon in Pisces psychic task and homework.

Sit quietly and think about the hidden person within, the traits you deny or project as dislikes onto others, the flaws you’d rather suppress. Meditate and imagine you meet your shadow self and you ask how they are, what they need from you, what message they have. The answers may really surprise you!

The Devil is a strong prompt to get to know yourself all the way down to the bottom.

April 21 to May 21

Tarot card for Taurus for the Full Moon in Pisces: Six of Swords

Meaning: Release. That is your Full Moon in Pisces psychic task and homework.

The Six of Swords is about letting go of things/people/tasks/roles/places that no longer serve, that you’ve outgrown, that belong in the past vs future.

Take a long bath and write down what you wish to release, in ink, on a piece of paper and pop it in the bath. As you pull the plug feel the energies and attachments leaving you and whirling down the drain. Take the faded piece of paper and bury it.

May 22 to June 21

Tarot card for Gemini for the Full Moon in Pisces: Eight of Swords

Meaning: Mirror talk. That is your Full Moon in Pisces psychic task and homework.

The Eight of Swords are about the mental traps and prisons we build for ourselves, the habits that hold us back, the self limiting beliefs. Often, these present as things we judge or dislike in others… we’re reflecting our own blockages.

So, talk to the mirror. Say what annoys you in others and see if you can find it within yourself. Identify it. Call it out. And banish it from your psyche. Ask for freedom.

Meaning: Psychic protection. That is your Full Moon in Pisces psychic task and homework.

You may’ve felt unseen forces at work in your life recently. They are here for a reason, to shake and collapse things which don’t belong in your life (so let them do their work) but some of these energies in play are destructive or dangerous.

Protect yourself. Light white candles. Wear dark coloured crystals. Place them in rooms you spend a lot of time. Sage or smoke cleanse your space. Ask for protection from guardian angels. Walk through shadow and come to the light.
