We're a week into a 3 week Mercury Retrograde in Pisces and lo and behold we have a New Moon in Pisces today! A fresh start in the midst of reflecting.
Pisces is a sign that is all about going with the flow. About tuning into your spirit, all that is, the universe and your intuition. It's about fantasy, ideals and imagination. It's about the infinite and infinite possibility. It's definitely a time to dream of what you would like in your life. Don't limit yourself. The possibilities are endless. Yet, it's a time where you should't try to control too much. See where life takes you. See how it unfolds. With the retrograde your mind may seem out to lunch, and while you may have to work extra hard to maintain your daily responsibilities, the intuitive flow state you find yourself in, the emotional connection to everything and the sense of tripping out, could be really interesting. What you need could be found within those spaces. There is already a sense of 'newness' within the retrograde. Although still there may be important things to think about. Take a look at territory you're revisiting. What important insights and discussions come up. Usually Mercury Retrograde happens when a big important decision needs to get made or a big life change is about to happen. Of course it can bring with it the annoyance of technology or appliances going on the fritz. Take your time doing things as it's easy to overlook things. Also, people from the past could come up. A lot of the time this doesn't mean anything, so just be discerning.
Mars in Capricorn is exactly sextile the New Moon, which is really nice because it brings some grounding energy to the rest of it. There's a lot of spacey, dreamy, in another dimension sort of energy, but yet there's quite an emphasis on Capricorn, giving us an anchor. Grounding down our dreams in reality. Mars in Capricorn in general reminds us that just because it's a retrograde we can't stop making our way up the mountain so to speak. Keep moving towards your goals as you discover what the retrograde has to show you. Mars in sextile to the New Moon just emphasizes this. There's a lot of energy. There's propulsion forward. It's a balance between flow and not just sitting still. With this energy, don't decide to just sleep your life away for three weeks, keep going! Make shit happen, just in an in tune, non forceful manner.
The day before the New Moon, the Sun was trine Uranus in Taurus, which still impacts the New Moon. There's lots of change and stimulation about. The unexpected. You certainly can't stay stuck in a rut. Mars was making this aspect earlier this week as well, so there's lots of this energy about. Elements of surprise, the unexpected. Changes. Urges to keep changing. An exciting, stimulating quality. It's a retrograde, but the energy certainly isn't dull.
Then the Sun a couple days after the New Moon will move into a trine with the North Node in Cancer. This energy impacts the New Moon too. We're moving into big destiny points. We're being nudged in the right direction. All of that being water energy, we're being nudged in a direction that we keep being nudged in, that of following our hearts and emotions. Let them be your guide. Like I said the mental energy is out to lunch at the moment, which is probably good because so often that energy doesn't help us out. So tap into those darn feelings! Open up your heart. Heart expansion, heart opening and heart awakening have been the biggest themes since the North Node entered Cancer. This is another big moment along that path.
Last aspect I want to talk about today is not one to the New Moon itself, but happening at the same time. That is, Venus in Aries square Jupiter in Capricorn. There can be some growing pains with relationships or even projects or money maybe. They are the most beneficial and lucky planets though, so this isn't too tense of an aspect. Venus in Aries wants new beginnings in relationships. It wants to begin new projects. Jupiter in Capricorn is about growth, but not in a crazy, fast impulsive way. It's more slow and methodical. Perhaps it's about realizing that things can move forward and things can grow, but be smart in the process. The worst thing that people usually do with Venus square Jupiter is over indulge or overspend, so just be careful of that.
It's an interesting time because there's actually a lot of new energy and new things pushing forward, just during a retrograde where we are also forced to reflect on some things as well. We're moving forward now and preparing to move forward more in the near future. It's a time to move forward, but in a go with the flow type state though too.
