This week leads up to the first of four Supermoons in a row happening next Monday, August 19 in Aquarius. A Supermoon is a full or new Moon that nearly coincides with perigee—the closest that the Moon comes to the Earth in its elliptic orbit—resulting in a slightly larger-than-usual apparent size viewed from Earth. The technical name is a perigee syzygy or a full Moon around perigee. The energy has an effect in that it’s striking in appearance and can be alluring. It’s a manifestation therefore has an effect. While waxing, as it is now, the Moon gives strength and reinforces what you do. In the element air and ruler of the natural eleventh house of the zodiac it inspires and brings forth realization and action relating to others and concepts of the future. Seeing the bigger picture of your life and the world comes to mind. Mercury retrograde is still a dynamic energy as it forms significant angles to other planets calling for being methodical and thoughtful making decisions and actions you elect to take.
It’s overall a week to continue to recognize your individual worth and carefully manage how you maneuver through life to maintain rightful purpose and place. Insight and awareness are strong even with Mercury retrograde.
