#full moon cycles

Full moon in Pisces September 20th, stargazers. You may have already been feeling the effects. Full moons, especially in water signs where the moon feels the most comfortable, are said to be times of illumination and revelations, It is also a time of ripening, completion and release [those with water placements on inner planets or Pisces placements in inner placements will want to pay extra close attention.] Since Pisces is the last sign of the zodiac, this full moon is the culmination of a full moon cycle. You’ll be feeling it’s effects most intensely today through the 24th.

What you can expect

• Lucid/Vivid dreams/premonitions
• Periods starting earlier than normal [sorry]
• Sudden bursts of emotion that seem to come out of nowhere
• Heightened sensitivity [within yourself and others]
• Feeling more introverted
• Feeling extremely sensual
• Someone might admit to how much they love you- expect confessions of love or admiration from someone. You can also expect apologies during this time.
• Sudden bursts of imagination/creativity [Neptune rules this sector, be sure to jot down those million dollar ideas!]
• High Pitched Ringing in the ears [Neptune rules spirit world so the veil is a bit thinner]
  
• More rain. More cloudy overcast days.
• Intuition on overdrive/being eerily accurate [Don’t ignore your gut feelings during this time]
• Situations with lovers or friends reaching full circle moments. This could be a long overdue ending to a toxic partnership or cutting ties with people/bonds that no longer serve you. 
• Healing from connections that’ve ended before this full moon cycle. [releasing resentment, anger, frustration, need for control-etc. Scorpios, Taureans and fire signs, I’m talking to you ;).]
• The urge to indulge in mind altering states. Please drink/partake responsibly. Be safe.
  
  
  

How to Handle This Energy

• Engage in creative writing or artistic projects. The time is ripe for broadening your consciousness and perception.
• Meditate, specifically doing 2nd Chakra Work which is the Chakra that Jupiter rules. Jupiter is the ancient ruler of Pisces. Having sounds of rain and the ocean can helps as well.
• 3rd eye Chakra work which rules intuition
• Drink Mugwort, Chamomile, or Lavender teas
• Get connected with Water [Go swimming in a pool in the evening and just let yourself float with your face towards the moon]- It might still be warm enough for you to do so.
• Take a hot bath [not shower]. Throw whatever herbs or oils you want in them
• Drink Wine [responsibly please, lol.]
• Cry. Don’t try to be a tough guy about it, just let it out.
• Charge your decks, crystals/stones and/or cleanse your tools
• Put an end to unhealthy habits or addictions. I know it’s tough to go cold turkey but sometimes you must.
  
  
  

Astrological Apects to note

• Grand trine in air- Mars, Saturn, & North Node: Focused deliberate and disciplined energy. This will assist with effective communication to follow through on plans and goals.
• Cardinal T- Square- Mercury opposing Eris [planet of discord] & squaring Pluto: Possibility of potential power struggles that can lead to some nasty fights or communication that can wound. Be sure to use your words to heal not harm.
• Yod- Venus at the Apex, Chiron and asteroid Ceres as the base: Prime aspect for profound healing as well as hurting. However with Pisces moon in the mix, healing may take precedence.
• Venus in Scorpio/Mars in Libra in mutual reception-Venus in Scorpio conjunct asteroid Toro and Opposing Uranus: Protect your boundaries. Be strategic. Stand your ground. Stick up for yourself. Remember, you deserve sugar, not salt. Don’t let bitches try you and never let an F-Boy prosper.
  

If you’ve been feeling too critical, too much rigidity, or overwhelmed with stressors out of your control as of late, this lunation can aid in letting you release many of those psychological and emotional burdens. Full moons [and in Pisces in particular] symbolize release, rest & rejuvenation. You’ll feel more at peace. Connect with the energy, don’t fight it. Step out of your rational mind for a moment and let your intuition guide you. Whatever triggers you during this period is just revealing to you what you need to heal. Look at what house Pisces rules and pay attention to which planets or points the fishes are sitting in for you, this is where you’ll be affected the most. Whatever comes, let it. Whatever goes, let it.
