The emotional fluctuations of recent weeks may soon transition into clarity and growth, as the Sturgeon Full Moon ascends over South Africa on Saturday, 9 August, reaching its peak at 09:56.
Named after the plentiful sturgeon fish that were once caught in North America’s Great Lakes, the Sturgeon Moon is a traditional symbol of the late summer harvest.

Whether you are seeking to reinvent your career, enhance your relationships, or shed detrimental habits, the energy from this lunar phase is poised to inspire transformation.
