With the Moon culminating in the mystical sign of Pisces, we are drawn to explore magical and spiritual realms, while we contrast those feelings with our practical goals. Meanwhile, the Sun stationed in the opposite, dutiful sign of Virgo, creates tension by holding our collective focus on work, service, and responsibilities. Though we may want to happily escape in daydreams, we also need to put some attention toward tackling the tasks and chores, so that we can actually create the world we aspire to live in.

The full moon’s Pisces intensity can catch us off guard with wistfulness, nostalgia or wishful thinking, causing some vulnerability, insecurity, sensitivity, or uncertainty. We can best navigate this time in honor of the water sign by being more gentle and tolerant to any mood shifts and changes, as well as remembering to use our imagination to find positive solutions, not to worsen any fear or overwhelm.

“Dreams and dedication are a powerful combination.”

William Longgood

These energies apply to groups as much as they apply to individuals. So, be mindful about navigating the balance between our dutiful thoughts and any feelings about wanting to escape instead. The best advice is not about watering down either approach but rather it is about fully honoring all true perspectives, and finding good ways to meaningfully incorporate the higher-minded ideals with positive strategies for the good of all involved.

This Full Moon brings illumination and that often appears through any of Pisces’ preferred subject areas, which include: SPIRITUALITY, good deeds, UNIVERSAL LOVE, tolerance, ACCEPTANCE, meditation, DREAMS, sleep, UNITY, prayer, imagination, FANTASY, psychic sensitivity, BLISS, surrender, mystical states, ECSTASY, inner happiness, liberation, ANGELIC ASSISTANCE, quiet time, SPIRITUAL HEALING, poetry, DANCE, emotional expressiveness, HOPE, and in the body Pisces rules the lymphatic system, overall tone of being and the feet.

The current pull between the Sun and Moon placement can also instigate emotional intensity, impatience, and irritability. Should any touchy feelings come up, stop to consider other perspectives and find the common ground in awareness of the higher values of SELFLESSNESS, SERVICE TO OTHERS, and DEDICATION TO WORTHY PURSUITS. The polarity now requires negotiating how we hold our energy; we must have space for dreaming and imagining, while we also figure out how to move ahead on the work that must get done.

“Never underestimate the power of dreams and the influence of the human spirit. We are all the same in this notion: The potential for greatness lives within each of us.” 

Wilma Rudolph

Try to remember that whatever is happening in your life is occurring as part of your journey. Sometimes the details are pleasing and other times the lessons are difficult . .either way, there is always something to be learned. And being prepared is the secret to more easily navigating all of it, on the way to living your best life!

This particular lunar phase comes in with lots of noteworthy aspects, that heighten the intensity while mixing up the energy. The overriding emphasis is on imagining something wonderful. Stay focused on the big picture and let the details evolve without forcing matters and you will come out ahead during this time.

First, the emotional moon links up with dreamy Neptune, which is the planetary ruler of Pisces, to boost our capacity for envisioning all we can create. This aspect is excellent for all meditative and creative work, including exploring fantasy and imagination.

Due to an awkward configuration with mental Mercury, the details may not be as clear right now. Try to avoid intellectual pettiness and just let any precision come into form with gentleness. Flow can be better than rigidity during this period. Mercury also challenges transformative Pluto and imaginative Neptune, which means that misunderstandings can arise. The antidote now is to bring more tolerance, kindness, and patience to situations. If you are putting things down in writing, be sure to edit as needed.

There is a similar strain between usually loving Venus in secretive Scorpio and chiropractic Chiron in bold Aries. Avoid impatience that leads to power struggles. The best healing is done in gentle ways that may at first seem subtle but will reverberate and penetrate deeply over time. Again, trust gentleness now and don’t force things or they may end up breaking completely.

Venus in Scorpio is taking issue with change maker Uranus in stubborn Taurus and also with authoritarian Saturn in fixed Aquarius. The combination of these three strong-willed signs can have tensions rise. Reduce conflicts and hurt feelings by taking in some fresh air and step away from provocation instead of digging into self-defeating and incendiary defensiveness.

The moon meanwhile forms a favorable sextile aspect with transformational Pluto in practical Capricorn. Expect shifts and even endings in whatever may be outdated, obsolete, or stuck.

Good news! Intellectual Mercury in designer Libra links with lucky Jupiter in inventive Aquarius. This benevolent trine formation they create brings blessings to those who want to build something innovative. Look for opportunities to communicate your best ideas for creating harmony, beauty, and peace around you. 

The emotional moon also challenges action-oriented Mars now in beautiful Libra. This provocation is good to get things rolling along, just be careful to avoid impulsivity that can trip you up later.

Pisces Moon also raises the vibe for spiritual magic. Above all else, keep your hope and faith alive. Remember good things are still possible. 

“You can find poetry in your everyday life, your memory, in what people say on the bus, in the news, or just what’s in your heart.”
