MOON INFLUENCES
FRIDAY, FEB 28th
11:59pm {pacific time}
★ALL New Moons have the strongest effect on us 3 days prior and up to 3 days after ★
The Moon is New in Pisces, the Fish, on Friday, February 28th, at 11:59pm {pacific time}.
New Moons are a time of starting over, new beginnings, taking action steps towards your dreams and goals, creating and renewal!
Pisces rules the subconscious mind and spiritual world & the New Moon in Pisces is a great time for starting a spiritual practice, beginning a meditation practice and doing deep inner work. Pisces is about compassion, kindness, romance, imagination, spirituality, sensitivity & art. Pisces lives to be of service & thrives on giving unconditionally to the good of a cause or person. The New moon brings awareness and new interest to these areas of your life! Maybe this is a new journey for you or maybe you are revisiting these areas and are ready to give them more attention. Either way, NOW is the time to tap into your intuition and artistic side because the energy is strong here!
There is always a fresh start that needs to be made during a New Moon and this one pertains to using our heightened sensitivity for creating the life we imagine without absorbing the feelings and issues of those around us, living our life for others while neglecting our own dreams, or getting caught up in a web of illusion, fantasy & escapism.
To add to this, at the time of the New Moon the Sun {personality}, Moon {emotions} & Neptune{dreams & wishes} is in a beautiful angle to Jupiter{planet of luck}. You are supported and people will be able to see your gifts and what you have to offer now. There is a generosity and optimistic attitude about. Your desire for growth and to help yourself and others move forward is prominent and you have the confidence & vision to do so!
IMAGINATION IS KEY BUT TAKING ACTION IS HOW YOU MAKE THE MAGIC HAPPEN!
It’s crucial right now that we allow ourselves the growth that is taking place. It’s time to be still and reflective in our process of moving forward. There is much past life stuff, karma and old memories that have been buried in the subconscious & need to come up to be transformed. Because of some of the planetary aspects there is confusion and disillusion swirling around. If you are feeling tired and out of sorts, REST. Especially those of us more sensitive beings could be feeling hyper sensitive to everything right now, sight, touch, taste, sound.
Stillness, Visualization, Meditation are still forms of moving forward in a more inward focused way. This is just what is needed.
MARS, PLANET OF ACTION, GOES RETROGRADE
Well, Mercury, our planet of communication finally goes direct today just in time for our New Moon. Communications & Contracts begin to move forward and the fog starts to clear {give a couple of extra days for full clarity}. March 3rd we should begin to feel it most. Thinking is clearer, technical devices are working better & previous misunderstandings begin to clear up.
BUT, we’re not really able to move forward full force just yet. Mars {planet of action and ambition} now begins to move backwards and won’t let up until May 19, 2014. We need to be a little more meticulous and deepen our work instead of rushing to push it through.
Our ambitions and our sexual relationships will be under review and it’s time for you to reevaluate your actions in this area of your life. How you are taking action in your closest relationships and whether or not you are being fair, diplomatic and balanced is going to come up for reflection.
The Universe is giving you the opportunity to readdress your approach towards sex, anger and assertiveness and how you express this in your life. This influence gives you the chance to regroup and refine the way that you deal with challenges, sexual urges and ambitions.
Try to express any feelings of desire, anger or aggression you have productively. Don’t allow your feelings to simmer or linger and talk to someone you trust about what you are feeling before you act.
Although, a New Moon is usually a great time to move forward, Mars retrograde will be holding us back a little bit and encouraging you to do more research and work on your plan of action beginning first with making changes from behind the scenes.
The energy in the air is one that is leaving us feeling quite impatient and in the mood for immediate changes. We want to control situations and those around us and are feeling stubborn to anyone who tries to give advice or make suggestions on our behalf. It’s highly likely you will come up against opposition mostly because you are feeling what you say and think is the only right way.
NEW MOON IN PISCES IS A TIME TO GO WITH THE FLOW!
LOVE
To add to Mars retrograde, there is a challenging aspect between Mars and Venus {planet of love} as well. This means that you could have extreme feelings right now in your relationships. You could lash out easily if there are any differences in opinion with loved ones. However, the Pisces New Moon gives you the ability to react differently, with more compassion, tolerance and kindness.
There is a fluctuation between either taking your relationships very seriously or not seriously at all. One moment feeling non-committal and on the fence with one foot out the door, so to speak, and the next moment you’re all in, ready to sign the paperwork, seal the deal and lock it down.
Uranus {planet of freedom & non-conformity} is in an uncomfortable aspect to Jupiter {planet of big thinking & adventure} this will leave you feeling restless and unlikely to want to follow rules of any kind. If you are in a relationship in love or work that feels constricting or like you are being controlled you will want to break free from it. If you are unable to you will become more & more resentful. Freedom to do your thing right now and exert your independence is crucial.
LESSON
- Increase your chances for success by considering others viewpoints and ideas.
- Allow this New Moon’s energy of adaptability and new beginnings to help you see where you can be more flexible and how you can think and see in a new light. Maybe your perspective will be changed and you will see something you never did before that enables you to change what it is that needs to be changed and move forward successfully.
- Tap into your confidence and vision. Have faith in yourself. Helping others is wonderful but remember to help yourself and give yourself the time and loving care you need.
- Be Patient and do the work behind the scenes, the inner work, that needs to be done
- Use your sensitivity to tune into others needs but don’t absorb the moods of others.
- IMAGINE, MEDITATE, REST!
