Closer Reflection — Aquarius Full Moon

To honor the Aquarius Full Moon at 2:09 pm EDT Sunday (18:09 UT), you may want to pause for closer reflection. Consider taking a few moments away from it all. Focus on what is urgent for you personally. The more mundane, the better — especially any issue you have distanced yourself from.
