The Pisces New Moon on February 23rd is a wonderful time to embrace our past dreams, intuition, and selves. It’s important to reconnect with the parts of ourselves that we’ve forgotten, in order to find out what our truest passions are and what our deepest desires are for the future.
Mercury, who’s currently retrograde in a Pisces, will connect with the Moon shortly after the luminary occurs. This means that it’s time to dive deep within and awaken our subconscious. Old visions that we’ve put on the back burner are more prone to take flight now, if we let them. Also, it’s a great time to make amends with those who we’ve recently got into arguments with — or we may decide to cut them loose permanently. Mercury is allowing us to see matters from an emotional perspective, rather than an analytical viewpoint. Mars activates the New Moon by adding action. We all want to move forward and take control of matters and relationships, even if it’s hard. Uranus sprinkles in a grounding energy, which will make us ask ourselves if we are valued and respected by others with whom we are making decisions about. The Nodes of Destiny give today a fated vibe. Venus and Jupiter (who is the planetary ruler of Pisces) square off today, making us open to all possibilities. If we have a clear mind and access to our clairvoyance skills, then we can move in the best direction possible with an open heart and mind.
With all this cosmic action happening during the Pisces New Moon, it’s important to trust our intuition. Evoking and embracing the third eye chakra may be difficult for some (due to Mercury’s current moonwalk), which is why it’s imperative that we listen to the visions our dreams bring to us. Igniting the third eye will open us up to all possibilities, as we will be able to see and understand the right choices that should be made. We will also be inspired to move forward and make clear decisions that will bring us a bright future.
*The New Moon occurs on February 23rd at 7:32AM PST and 10:32AM EST.
