DATA:  August 20, 2013 @ 9:46 P.M. EDT - Washington, D.C.

The purpose of the Full Moon is to enhance, change, alter, or provide additional insight into the activity instigated at the time of the New Moon, previously discussed on August 7th.

An Aquarius Full Moon indicates intangible things not perceptible to the touch.  Aquarius rules large-scale events, universal in scope, unconventional and departing from the norm.  The activity of the Moon in Aquarius is subject to change without notice:  erratic, disruptive, and political.  The major theme is to expect the unexpected; plans can change just as abruptly as they were made.  Be on the alert for possible breakdown of electrical circuits and electrical appliances, such as computers, x-ray equipment, radio, television, video equipment...and or all electrical appliances.  "Acts of God" (hurricanes, earthquakes, tornadoes, mudslides, volcanic eruptions, floods and electrical storms) are governed by Aquarius.

Uranus retrograde hugs the Aries Ascendant from the 12th house and squares 4th house Jupiter in Cancer.  Weather may become dangerous.  There may be unforeseen circumstances having to do with business and commerce, suggesting great care with personal resources, as there may be surprise expenses.

Closest aspect:  Moon in the 11th house opposition Mercury conjunct Sun in Leo in the 5th house.  Mercury is the type of energy that will prevail for the trend ahead.  Everything to do with communications, accidents involving transportation, and petty annoyances will drive the average American to distraction.

Suggestion for overcoming the negatives:  be as an oyster with a grain of sand, allow the irritating annoyances to become a pearl within your soul.

USA horoscope:  Of importance to note:  The Full Moon conjoins the USA natal 3rd house Moon and has influence not only over all 3rd house matters (communications, transportation, internet, telephone system, media) but also over the nation's treasury, national debt, financial organizations such as the banking industry, the nation's mortality rates, and financial affairs with the nation's 7th house allies or enemies due to the Moon ruling the Cancerian 8th house cusp.  (Thank you, Nancy.)  All these areas will come to the notice of the public.

In a Mundane chart of a country, the Moon rules people in general and their mental attitudes that arise mostly from the unconscious mind and from the impressions received from environment which have not been carefully pigeon-holed.  The feelings about certain things, the unreasoned mental processes, the hunches, intuitions and capacities for absorbing certain kinds of information which, rather than the expression of opinions formed through words and sentences that chiefly constitute the mentality, are expressions of the thought-cells mapped by the Moon.

These type thought-cells govern the negative, low-frequency energies of the electromagnetic body.  Their degree of activity, and their harmony, are important in determining the strength of the physical constitution and therefore the health.  Consequently, everyone's mental attitude, their everyday affairs, relations with the female sex and the general public are going to be brought to the fore...use the energy to seek practical information, this is not the time to attempt untried theories.  Folks with planets at late degrees of Aquarius, Leo, Scorpio and Taurus will be especially affected.
