Chinese horoscope: How the full moon will affect all zodiac signs this month

Another full moon approaches on Monday, August 19, but what can each Chinese zodiac sign expect?

By Chanelle Georgina, Senior Reporter

A full moon occurs when the entire face of the moon, which is a beautiful celestial object, is illuminated in the night sky.

Occurring approximately every month of the year, the full moon is thought to affect each Chinese zodiac sign, from the Rat to the Pig.

Destined to be a Chinese zodiac animal based on the year you were born, there is a 12-year cycle that goes on and on, forever. 

From February 10, 2024, it has been the year of the Dragon – most specifically, the Wood Dragon – but all signs are influenced by the energetic realm. 

In the lead up to the powerful full moon on August 19, here's what each Chinese zodiac sign can expect in the next couple of weeks with their horoscopes.
