A retrograde turn pulls things back for review, and 3 sign changes shift the collective tone, the lunations mark the month's open and close, a slow outer-planet aspect colours the backdrop.

*Full Moon in Aquarius
lunation
Full Moon in Aquarius: future and collective reaches the surface. Look without flinching.
Read the full reading
The Moon fills in Aquarius, and Full Moons do not whisper. Whatever you built around future and collective is visible now. You may get clarity, or you may get the bill for what you kept semi-dark on purpose.
Use this Full Moon to separate completion from theater. Celebrate what is actually ripe. Release what only looked finished because you were tired of carrying it.
Deep dive
Keep the network that changes the room nearby. Full Moons in Aquarius expose where you stayed loyal to a version of the story that no longer fits your spine.
Illumination is information, not indictment. What you integrate now becomes usable strength by the next New Moon.

*New Moon in Virgo
lunation
New Moon in Virgo: plant one real intention around craft and repair.
Read the full reading
The sky goes dark in Virgo, and that is not emptiness. It is the month's reset around craft and repair. New Moons are the inhale: the seed is underground, but the body already knows.
This New Moon asks you to fix the small thing that changes the whole week. Do not renovate your whole life overnight. Pick one sentence you can repeat for two weeks and let the feeling arrive before the spreadsheet does.
Deep dive
Think of the detail that earns trust. That image is the architecture under the mood. New Moons in Virgo reward honesty about desire, not performance about ambition.
Gravity and hope: if the intention still matters at the Full Moon, it was real. If it fades, you just saved yourself a longer detour.

Mercury meets the Sun in Cazimi, seated in the heart of the solar fire where a planet is briefly purified instead of burned. This is concentrated weather for speech, contracts, and timing, not background noise.
Claim one clean truth and act on it before the window closes. Cazimi rewards backbone, not spectacle.
