If there’s something in the air, it’s not your imagination — a rare astrological event is just around the corner, ready to make big waves.
The Blue Supermoon will occur on Wednesday, August 30th/31st, following the August Sturgeon Moon. And, just so you know, the next Blue Supermoon won’t appear until August 2032.
A blue moon is a second full moon that occurs within the same month as another full moon, whereas a supermoon is a full moon that is closest to the Earth. According to Almanac, August’s Blue Supermoon will be especially large and bright, making it ideal for some moon gazing at night.
Experts say it’s also a good time to look inward and prepare for personal changes. The average distance between the moon and Earth is 238,900 miles (384,472 km), but on August 30, it will be much closer: 222,043 miles (357,344 km). As a result, there may be a slightly stronger gravitational pull on the tides, animals, and ourselves, making you feel a little more emotional or intense near this time. While August’s Blue Supermoon may elicit strong emotions, there’s no need to worry. Learn how to prepare for the lunar event, which includes taking a relaxing shower or bath.
Expect mixed feelings during the Blue Supermoon
Full moons are known to be dramatic, and the Blue Supermoon in August 2023 is no exception. This moon will be in Pisces, the last sign on the zodiac wheel, and will be opposite Virgo. This astrological position encourages a blend of practicality and spirituality. When it comes to the astrological aspects that will color this lunation, we will see a lot of mixed energy.
The planets will also play an important role in the moon’s emotional influence. First and foremost, the full moon will be conjunct with Saturn, which will heighten the seriousness and gravity of our emotions — and may cause us to feel disconnected from others. We may face obstacles and challenges that force us to take a step back and confront depression or sadness, especially if we have not been confronting these emotions directly. Neptune will also enter the picture, possibly bringing feelings of confusion or weakness.
Fortunately, the Blue Supermoon will not be all doom and gloom. Several other planets, according to the celebrity astrologer, will inspire optimism, creative thinking, and lighthearted fun during the full moon. Take advantage of this opportunity to shake things up and finally sort through any issues that have been holding you back.
Celebrate the Blue Supermoon in August with energy-boosting rituals
The Blue Supermoon in August 2023 may elicit strong emotions and inspire you to embark on a personal transformation right away. However, the lunar event provides an opportunity to slow down. Perform some full moon grounding rituals. Because Pisces is a Water sign, using water can be very beneficial. Bathing in a meditative bath, visualizing a shower as cleansing white light, or even making moon water can all be beneficial.
The rare cosmic occurrence would be incomplete unless you checked in with your inner self. First, consider the patterns that have guided you over the last few months. The situations and conversations that are coming to a head now will be linked to the patterns that began with the new moon in Pisces on February 20, 2023. Accept these changes with a mantra such as “I surrender to the flow of the universe.” Use your mantra in a meditation or journal exercise on or before the Blue Supermoon’s peak to help you accept the changes the event may bring to your life.
