The Full Moon in Aquarius arrives on Thursday, August 7th, asking us to liberate ourselves from the limitations of lack , not just financially, but spiritually, emotionally, and energetically.

August Smells Like Generational Wealth

August smells like generational wealth.

The kind that comes with regulated nervous systems, not chaos.

The kind that lives in communities that can hold diversity, difference, and divinity all at once.

The kind that blooms from knowing your worth, and feeling safe in it, confident in it, rooted in it.

The kind of wealth that tastes like nourishing food and belly laughs around a crowded table.

The kind that money can support, but cannot replace.

The kind that is felt deeper through connection than it is spent through currency.

This is the wealth I’m anchoring into this August.

And I invite you to do the same

The name comes from the Irish god Lugh, a solar deity known for his many talents: warrior, craftsman, poet, and king. Lughnasadh means “the gathering of Lugh” and was historically a time of games, feasting, and honoring the earth.

It was also the time when communities would come together to celebrate the first grain harvest, give thanks to the land, and honor those who labor (both human and divine).

“The first time I called myself a witch was the most magical moment of my life.”

I was sitting in a hospice chair, staring at my mother, wondering what the hell I was going to do when she left this earth.

How would I survive when she was gone?

Cancer is ruled by the Moon, making this New Moon one of the most emotionally potent of the year. It asks you to reconnect to the wisdom of your body, your heart, and your sacred inner world. It’s not about forcing growth—it’s about tending what is tender.

This is a big week for reckoning, revelation, and reverence. The Full Moon in Sagittarius on June 11th lights up the 11th house—the realm of community, hopes, and the collective dream. Sagittarius, the truth-seeker, calls us to free ourselves from beliefs that confine us and instead align with a vision that fuels liberation. This is a time for letting go of limiting ideals and stepping into a bolder, soul-aligned path.

Do you ever wake up and think “todays the day I get my life together?” This might be the moon for you.

This week is the sacred middle ground: not quite at the full moon, but far enough from the new moon to start seeing what needs adjustment. Virgo offers refinement; Scorpio brings depth. Trust that each small, focused step forward is reshaping your reality. Let go of what clutters your path. Strengthen what aligns.
