Once In A Very Blue Moon: Astrology Forecast August 27th – September 3rd, 2023
Everything you need to know for the upcoming week.
By: Lorna Bevan | Hare In The Moon
Expect a week of sliding doors moments as unpredictable Uranus and Morning Star Venus both station to turn direct in the seismic window of this very rare Blue Super Full Moon – the second Super Moon of August.
This extreme lunar alignment brings especially powerful tides in the atmosphere, seas and crust of spaceship Earth including earthquakes and volcanic eruptions. Super Moons also affect your nervous system – creating that fritzed, fried, tired and wired syndrome.
Make a note of the dates of the seismic geo-cosmic shock window between: August 28 – September 3 to increase your hydration, get more rest and down time.
The Piscean Super Moon is conjunct retrograde Saturn opposite the Sun conjunct Black Moon Lilith in Virgo trine Jupiter in Taurus. With the Moon in far seeing Pisces, your heart and soul are yearning to dream large without boundaries, to create ideal visions of what could be. Pisces key words are: spiritual; empathic; intuitive; receptive; compassion; healing; dreams; visionary; mystic; vague; elusive; slippery; escapist; inflated; prone to illusions; deceptive.
Lord of Time and Karma Saturn is insisting on trying to put boundaries on this watery formlessness whilst Sun and Black Moon Lilith in Earth sign Virgo require a plan, a map and a do-by date. Jupiter in Taurus is asking: “Where’s the money coming from?”
Saturn in his guise as your own Jedi coach will test your ideas to see if they are weak, unstable or built on shifting sands. The big question is:
Are you ready to evolve beyond your current self-created limitations, deal with the harsh realities of life and use your powers for a purpose?
Are you aged 29, 58 or 84 or will be in the next 3 years? Welcome to Your Saturn in Pisces Return Years …
Saturn takes 28-30 years to make a full turn of the zodiac. When the Task Master returns to his natal position by sign and degree on the day you were born, you experience a series of roadblocks along with a course correction, forcing you to make a necessary jump in your individuation and maturity. If you resist, you get a harsh reality check pushing you out of your comfort zone.
Nothing about Saturn is casual. The Lord of Time and Karma demands that you take full and complete accountability for your choices, propelling major – albeit challenging – transformation.

Chandra Symbol Super Moon PISCES 7: A candle burning. There is a ring of salt around it on the floor.
“From this place spirit can empower itself to be whole, to commune, to remember, and to conceive. However, all of this happens inside, deep inside. The outside situation may belie the inward experience. But here what seems in the moment is as nothing, and what is really there between the lines and through the cracks is everything. This is a domain set apart for special purposes, projects, and endeavours, and is the perfect retreat for anyone who wishes to remain in touch with the living spirit, who wishes never to forget what it is that stands under the phenomenal world and keeps the eternal flame burning without a flicker.” – Inside Degrees Elias Lonsdale
