NEW MOON IN PISCES
the new moon in pisces occurs at 4’; conjunct mercury rx in pisces (looking at past ideals that confusion or delusion may have overpowered the truth), sextile mars in capricorn (giving you the drive to make use of your rebirth and awaken the passion to manifest your dreams), sextile uranus in taurus (freeing ourselves from idealistic goals, expectations that may be blocking us from creating tangible goals), jupiter in capricorn sextile neptune in pisces (luck with manifestations and dreams, dissolving past mistakes to help you expand your present visions).
when the moon is in pisces, we feel called to search for meaning, depth, and a sense of fulfillment (questioning your purpose in life), receive clarity/information to move forward (wanting spirit to guide you, listening to the intuitive whispers), learn from our past mistakes (transcend and rebirth every part of ourselves), isolate ourselves (connect with spirit, recharge our energy, reflect on our emotions), and make changes in our life that will allow us to live in a state of flow and fluidity (inner peace).
WHAT TO EXPECT
feeling inadequate or low self-esteem
synchronicities and strange occurrences are more likely to happen
heightened absorption of emotions, energy of others, or your surroundings
the consequences from your mistakes may show up during this time
healing within partnerships; be aware that some information can come up and cause some sort of conflict (arguments that lead to pettiness, lack of cooperation, defensiveness, clashing of egos)
difficulty discerning feelings that were birthed from your imagination versus for what they actually are (the truth vs self-made illusions)
breakthrough moments
clarity/information from spirit (spiritual downloads)
idealizing a fantasy within love, goals, or a specific lifestyle
“as you sow, so shall you reap”
falling victim to external influences and using addictive patterns as an scapegoat from reality
being at service to others; wanting to rescue or find a solution for everyone in need of help
the urge to renew yourself from old habits or addictions
having more prophetic dreams
feeling like you’re living in a state of fluidity and flow
heightened sensitivity
increase in intuitive judgment and discernment
amplified imagination and creative energy
wandering off into a world of fantasy or day dreaming more often
establishing or rebuilding connections with meaning, depth, and soul alignment
deepening connection with spirit
difficulty seeing the truth from illusion (confusion)
WHAT TO FOCUS ON
balance + boundaries
who do you need to set boundaries with?
are you showing more compassion for others and leaving yourself out to dry?
empathy; know how to put yourself in other people shoes, but also stay in your lane
sacrifice; what part of yourself have you been sacrificing for the sake of other’s comfort?
developing your intuition
be aware; going off of your hunches and gut instincts helps you develop your intuition. awareness of your body and what you’re feeling is your intuition speaking to you. know the difference between the whispers of fear/anxiety vs intuition.
play a game: when the phone rings, without looking at the phone, guess who’s calling you. go off of feeling rather than thinking
warning: addictive habits, lack of sleep, stress, clutter, and fears are major causes of blockage within your intuition
surrendering perfectionism (idealism)
who and what area of your life are you placing high expectations on?
are you holding yourself accountable for your own mistakes when you judge others for theirs?
how can you integrate your visions and imaginations with reality?
avoid escaping the truth
where in your life are you deciding to create a false reality for yourself to feel more safe or comfortable with avoiding the truth?
are you using addictive patterns (such as drugs, sex, overindulging on food, etc) to numb pain or for any sort of avoidance?
release of self sabotaging habits
how do you think about yourself?
how do you feel about yourself?
how do you speak to yourself?
are you allowing your fears to get in the way of achieving your dreams? what fears are you allowing to block your success?
what limiting beliefs or doubts are holding you back?
manifestation; it’s at an all time high right now so watch what you’re speaking into your existence or wishing upon yourself
grounding
where do you need to put your foot down?
what part of your life do you feel you need more solid grounding in?
