Full Moon in Shravana, Capricorn

August 9, 2025

This Full Moon rises in Shravana, the Star of Sacred Listening, nestled in the grounded sign of Capricorn, the wise mountain elder who knows that true success is not about striving, but about staying. Shravana asks us not to shout to be heard, but to soften until we can truly listen.

The light of the Moon spills over the path of discipline, devotion, and inner responsibility, illuminating the places where we have been quietly tending the soil of our becoming. In this cycle, we are invited to honor the steady work we’ve done… the unseen, under-celebrated, perhaps even doubted by others…and to reaffirm our commitment to what truly matters in the long arc of our lives.

But this isn’t a sterile Capricorn kind of striving. With the Sun in Ashlesha, there’s a primal, coiling emotional current underneath. Ashlesha brings the serpent's wisdom: Deep intuition, transformation, and ancestral release.

Underneath the surface, the heart is shedding another layer.

You may feel both fiercely protective and deeply vulnerable. Let the waters rise. Let the poison purge. Let the truth come through in whispers rather than declarations.

At the same time, Mercury retrograde in Pushya reminds us that real nourishment isn’t always fast or flashy. Pushya, the star of spiritual expansion, feeds the soul with quiet rituals, sacred repetition, and simple acts of service. Communications may feel tender, conversations may loop or seem unclear. But if you listen beyond the words, you’ll hear the deeper longing - both in yourself and others.

And then, Venus and Jupiter, lovers and teachers of the cosmos, meet in Gemini’s Ardra nakshatra.

Ardra is the storm that comes before clarity. The crying out before the calm.

This conjunction during the Full Moon could stir emotional tempests, downloads of divine truth, relationship resets, or a deluge of new ideas that demand integration. Ardra does not whisper. It wails, it weeps, it awakens. This is a sacred storm. Let it clear what is no longer aligned. Let it quench the parched places in you.

Saturn retrograde in Uttara Bhadra (the deep ocean of Pisces) casts a long ancestral shadow across this moon. It asks us to remember: What are you truly in service to? What legacy are you tending? This is soul lineage work, and it’s slow magic. The kind that whispers from your bones.

Soul Invitation

This Full Moon is not asking for flash or force. It is asking for reverent realignment. To take responsibility not from shame, but from love. To listen for the quiet call of your soul’s next right step. To bow to the sacred discipline of healing. To choose your path with both tender devotion and unshakeable integrity.

Full Moon Reflection Prompt:

What am I being asked to listen to now, deep beneath the noise?

Where am I being called to recommit, release, or realign?

Closing Blessing from Jenn:

May this Full Moon in Shravana illuminate the steps you’ve taken in silence.
May the storms of Ardra clear your sky.
May Mercury’s retrograde waters baptize your words in truth.
May the coiled wisdom of Ashlesha remind you: you are more than what you produce….you are what you re-member.
And may Saturn’s gaze root you deeper into your sacred yes.

You are becoming. You are re-membering. You are enough.
