What tonight's rare blue supermoon means for you: Astrologers reveal three star signs impacted the most

The blue supermoon that is set to appear at dusk tonight has the potential to transform the lives of those born under certain star signs, according to astrologers. 

So, if things aren't going exactly how you'd like them to, don't lose hope - the full moon in Monday night's sky that's larger and brighter than usual could be on your side. 

While all the signs of the zodiac will be impacted by this evening's celestial event, its influence on August 19 could prove dramatic for a few signs. 

A supermoon occurs only three or four times a year as the moon reaches its closest point to Earth.

That makes our lunar satellite appear up to 14 per cent larger and a third brighter than normal, leading to some truly spectacular views while the moon is full for the next three days.

This lunar display is even rarer than a standard supermoon, as it coincides with the first blue moon since August last year and will appear dark red due to wildfire ash in the atmosphere.

Speaking to The Independent, Inbaal Honigman, celebrity astrologer at psychic reading platform Tarotoo, said tonight's full moon will be in Aquarius and revealed the three signs this would impact the most.

So, which signs can expect to be most affected by tonight's blue supermoon - and what exactly is in store for them?

AQUARIUS 

(January 21 - February 19)

For those born under Aquarius, the blue supermoon could prove revelatory. 

Aquarians, who tend to be innovative thinkers with the drive to challenge the status quo, could come to anticipate their future tonight thanks to vivid dreams.

Since tonight's phenomenon is taking place in the sign of Aquarius, 'those born under the sign will feel the most impact,' Inbaal said. 

She added: 'A full moon is a time of prophetic dreams, and Aquarians are quite spiritually gifted, so their dreams will be meaningful and memorable.'

Those born in the eleventh sign, then, are encouraged to keep track of their dreams during this period - there's every chance they could reveal their future.  

Kyle Thomas, People's resident astrologer, agrees that the blue supermoon could be transformative for Aquarians. 

He encourages them to keep an eye on personal relationships - a certain one could change dramatically - and expects that Aquarians will 'see the realisation of a dearly important personal project, hope or dream.'

SCORPIO  

(October 24 - November 22) 

Those born under Scorpio can also expect positive changes to flow from tonight's blue supermoon. 

Distinctive for their strong personalities and intense emotions, Scorpios are equally passionate about people and causes.

Tonight's celestial phenomenon could enable them to channel their passion to 'heal the world', according to Inbaal.  

Because Scorpio's ruler Pluto - the planet of transformation - is also in Aquarius tonight, those born under the eight sign of the zodiac should expect change. 

Scorpios, according to People's astrologer Kyle, could be 'shifting from one location to the next' or they could be required 'to step in to help a family member, potentially a parent.'

Inbaal agrees that Scorpios, who are ardent by nature, could be driven to contribute to a meaningful cause at this time, whether that means joining a political movement or taking part in a charity event. 

VIRGO 

(August 24 - September 23)

While Aquarians have been primed to expect revelatory dreams with far-reaching consequences and Scorpios are encouraged to look forward to dramatic, meaningful change in their lives, the picture isn't so clear-cut for Virgos - although they too could be greatly impacted by the blue supermoon. 

The reality, though, may be that they're going to be expedited into situations that they didn't see coming (and would rather have avoided). 

It's possible, for example, that ghosts from the past could turn up over the coming period, ready to air the skeletons that Virgos long ago locked away in the cupboard. 

Inbaal explained: 'Virgo's link with the full moon this August comes courtesy of their planetary ruler, Mercury. This planet is exactly opposite the moon on the day of fullness, meaning Virgo will be trying to live life and ignore it.'
