The astrologer spoke about the effect of the Sturgeon full moon on mood

The Sturgeon full moon, which will come on August 28, may be accompanied by emotional instability, hypersensitivity, anxiety, and sleep disorders. Some people during this period may be more acutely aware of what is happening and feel the desire to abruptly end a relationship or abandon their usual way of life. Astropsychologist Anastasia Statsenko told Izvestia about this.

"Emotional swings, hypersensitivity, anxiety, and sleep problems are possible near the date of the full moon. Some may have a sharp sense of clarity and a desire to cut off all unnecessary things. This is a natural reaction of the psyche to the end of the eclipse cycle, which ends with the August full moon," Statsenko said.

She explained that in 2026, the Sturgeon full moon coincides with a partial lunar eclipse, which closes the corridor of eclipses of the current year. According to her, this period will be a time of powerful transformational culmination, when many hidden processes can manifest themselves and confusing situations become clear.

"However, some people will tend to make impulsive decisions and make emotional points. To minimize the negative impact, it is worth reducing information noise on this day, avoiding conflicts, giving yourself time to recover and rest more," Statsenko recommended.
