Full Sturgeon Moon

By Tara Sutphen

The Full Sturgeon Moon (Native American) at 9* Aquarius will culminate, August 1, 2023 11:32AM PST/2:32PM EST (Farmers Almanac).

This Full Sturgeon Moon is about being proactive and making “headway” toward achievement.

Practicing self-awareness allows you to progress into who you would like to become. Reacting in a positive manner allows you to create situations of trust and calmness. People seldom gather their thoughts and wits in chaos. There are those people who can keep up with a frenzied pace. But are you stopping to listen and learn? Who is out there with sound expertise to help you learn to achieve?

How about learning to cope. There are issues, which happened in childhood or even as an adult, which can prevent our achievement of goals. Sometimes we need to reprogram our minds by positive reinforcement, hypnosis, or pure willpower.

Many people develop healthy skills to cultivate their consciousness. Do you need to make your voice heard above the frey? Or do you listen on a deeper level and take your observations with you to mull over? When you see a conflict or impending problem, are you able to dig deeply and bring your observations to the surface? Maybe you're even ready to create a solution. We can't skirt the issues that hold us back, we need to address the concerns which don’t serve ourselves and others, and make some headway in our lives.

To Become Conscious:

• Empathy: A sign of emotional intelligence is knowing how you are feeling… and being aware of how others are feeling. Everyone feels differently.

• Adaptability: Learning to react appropriately.

• Confidence: Being aware of your shortcomings and still acting in faith.

• Mindfulness: Becoming aware of the Present. You have this time on the planet to be in the “NOW”.

• Patience: Allowing time to be your ally.

• Kindness: No-one is perfect. Everyone needs a boost.

_____How do your actions affect your daily life and also the lives of others, especially your friends and family? Self-awareness requires acknowledging your emotions, it's not really why you do the things you do or what you might say. But maybe you could identify how you handle those feelings and how any of those subsequent actions are good for your life or not.

Self-awareness allows you to monitor your emotions and reactions. It lets you know your triggers and weaknesses. What you really want to focus on is your strengths and positive motivation. Life is about enjoying the process, not feeling like you have to be on the defensive or reactive.
