"We are born at a given moment, in a given place, and like vintage years of wine, we have the qualities of the year and the season of which we are born. Astrology does not lay claim to anything more." - Carl Gustav Jung

Pisces Full Moon September 2, 2020

   The Full Moon culminates overnight at 10 degrees of Pisces, highlighting our unseen connections to the whole world. Sensitivity, intuition and empathy are hallmarks of this water sign.  Pisces expresses energetically through love and wisdom, devotion and idealism, and asks how best to be of service in the world. Taken too far, this can manifest as radical extremism, which can promote savior complexes, either waiting for one or thinking you can save the world single-handedly.

   When positively demonstrated, Piscean energy shows up in compassionate caring or artistic and/or spiritual endeavors. When acting negatively, the mutable energy of Pisces lacks boundaries, confuses fantasy for reality, and can overindulge in drugs or alcohol. Listening to one's inner muse is the stuff dreams are made of, channeling creativity into beautiful works of art, engaging films and music that speaks to our souls.

   In the chart of the Full Moon, we see some difficult aspects between the planetary archetypes that necessitate careful consideration, beginning with the opposition of the Sun in Virgo and Moon in Pisces. Immediately there is the pull between what is real and what is not. Virgo's specialty is organization and that requires clarity, yet the opposing Moon in Pisces lacks boundaries and doesn't know if it's seeing an illusion and what it wants to see or something concrete.

   Add to that, the Moon's applying to Neptune, planetary ruler of Pisces, and one runs the risk of projecting needs and wants onto others. A remedy is to sit this one out while communing with your inner muse or spiritual beliefs. Time spent in solitude, or in nature are effective ways of getting clarity about what is most important at this time. This is an opportunity to connect with our higher selves or better angels, while ignoring the the lure of instant gratification and hidden promises of things too good to be true.

   Keeping your head in the stars and your feet on the ground, can help with this delicate balancing act of the here and now, dreams and reality.
