Pisces New Moon

Sunday inspiration: Blessing for a new day at the New Moon

The Pisces New SuperMoon is today – an emergence of heart-opening compassion and the illumination of imagination. With the New Moon at its closest point to Earth making it a SuperMoon, it may be easier to tune into our heart’s desires as we chart our course for the next month. 

It is often said that intentions planted at the New Moon can come to fruition, and the SuperMoon can make these instincts stronger and more clear. But in the midst of the Piscean mist, we have a challenging square from Mars to Uranus today. Nerves may be jangled, and wires may […]

Planetary news this week: Venus in Aries and a Super Pisces New Moon

Astrological update for the week of February 20-27, 2022

artist unknown?

(I wrote about today’s New Moon in last week’s edition but it’s worth repeating, especially if you missed it! )

Sun enters Pisces, and the third New SuperMoon in a row. This week brings the Pisces New Moon on February 20 just after the Sun enters Pisces. This is the third New Moon at perigee (closest to Earth) in a row, beginning the season of Pisces and an emergence of heart-opening compassion and the illumination of imagination. With the New Moon […]

Planetary news: Mercury in Aquarius and the Pisces New SuperMoon

Astrological update for the week of February 13-20, 2023

artist unknown?

Mercury in Aquarius. Mercury left the solid, practical sign of Capricorn for Aquarius on February 11th, joining the Sun and Saturn in the sign of the collective. Aquarius is a very dry sign – ruled by both Saturn and Uranus, Aquarius is the quintessence of rational thinking and logic, so when the planet of the mind (Mercury) is in the sign of logic (Aquarius), there is an emphasis on reason and detachment (Saturn rulership) as opposed to the feeling and […]

Astrological news this week: A war with no retrogrades and a Pisces New Moon

link

February 28 through March 7, 2022.  Maybe the US threatening a short dictator with Scorpio rising and Pluto conjunct the Midheaven that his country would suffer untold destruction, under a Venus/Mars/Pluto conjunction, wasn’t the best idea. Especially with Pluto exactly conjunct US Pluto on February 22nd. Sometimes we wish astrology didn’t work quite so well.

Anyway. It’s difficult to predict what will happen, although plenty of people will try. So in the meantime let’s try to change the things we can and not obsess over what we can’t, doomscrolling into […]

Weekend update, 3.13-14.21. A peaceful Pisces weekend

With the Moon just new in Pisces (as of 5:21 am on March 13), and a Pisces stellium, this is a weekend to commune with the divine.  If you have the luxury to do so, put aside your organizational tasks, your every day routines, and your checklists for a day or so.  After the Moon enters Aries Saturday evening (EST) you will have more energy to put things back into motion, but under the Pisces influence on Saturday if you can take even an hour or two for quiet contemplation or […]

The meaning of the Pisces New Moon, March 13, 2021

artist unknown

With Venus, Neptune, the Sun and the Moon all aligned in Pisces right now within four degrees, this is a time of  incredible creativity and anything having to do with opening the heart to Spirit.  The lovely harmony of Venus in the sign of divine love inspires a sense of peace and equanimity.  Neptune opens the doors of perception so that we may see outside of the normal boundaries of our mundane existence.  And the conjunction of the Sun and Moon begins a new lunar cycle, this time at the […]

Weekly update: Pisces New Moon, no retrogrades, and your weekly forecast

In this week’s video I cover the meaning of the current state of all planets traveling in direct motion.  That is not very typical! It occurs less than 10% of the time.  We also have a Pisces stellium this week AND a Pisces New Moon which is a big change from the Aquarian energies of February.  Thanks for watching, and if you prefer the transcript is below.

For the astrology of current events, follow me on Twitter, and for  video updates follow me on Youtube. Daily astro updates can be found both here on the […]

Pisces New Moon: A magical cornucopia of heart-opening gifts

Photo by Kim Seng

That title may seem like an exaggeration, but this New Moon in Pisces is amplified by a beautiful sextile between Jupiter and Neptune to bring out the best of the Pisces archetype which, let’s face it, can be a bit dreamy and ungrounded sometimes.  Jupiter and Neptune are connected through their rulership of Pisces – Jupiter as the traditional ruler, and Neptune as the modern ruler.

Under the Pisces influence we often throw ourselves to the winds, eagerly willing to sacrifice our individual pain […]

Mercury retrograde and New Moon in Pisces, March 5-28, 2019

New Moon PiscesThere’s a lot to unpack this week!

Mercury has just turned retrograde. (For a little more detail, check out the video linked below.) Mercury turns retrograde three or four times a year, and travels retrograde for about 21 days each time. Because Mercury’s domain includes the mind, learning and communication but also trips of short duration and the technology which facilitates communication, Mercury is not always at its best when appearing to travel retrograde. If this is new to you, or if you’d like more information, please […]

New Moon in Pisces, February 21 2012

Art from Bianca Clipperton. Today’s New Moon is a juicy one, and will carry us into a new beginning of spiritual sensitivity and compassionate opening of the heart.

The New Moon in Pisces occurs on February 21 st. This is a particularly powerfully Neptunian New Moon since Neptune and Chiron flank the Sun and Moon, all within four degrees of each other. Mercury is also in Pisces, and if we look at the asteroids as well we see Pallas linking the Sun and Chiron.

Neptune and Pisces encourage us to transcend the physical world […]
