The first quarter moon in Pisces glows today at 9:36am est, 6:36am ptd, inviting us to slow down. Pisces is traditionally ruled by Jupiter, the ruling planet of this season. As the watery moon squares off to Venus in Sagittarius at the 18°, matters of the heart can feel heavy at this time. Reflecting on our values, how we show up for ourselves vs. how we show up for others and creating new boundaries may be themes at this time. Pisces is ruler of the 12th house, highlighting closure and the end of a cycle. Some may feel as though they are mourning something, unsure of what it is exactly but knowing intuitively it’s time to move forward into a new direction. Both the sun and moon sit at the 8° of their signs, a number that reflects the ability to break free of repetition and self sabotage, and instead choose to evolve into our highest form.
Just a few days after this first quarter moon, modern ruler of Pisces, Neptune, stations direct on 12/03. The veil continues to be lifted and awaken more beings in the collective. Neptune is mysterious, magical, glamorous, and sometimes confusing. True intentions are being shown, as the fog of Neptune begins to disappear. Although this shift Neptune is making can bring back our vitality, exhaustion may linger until Jupiter enters Aries on 12/20.
This moon is a reminder to go with the flow and honour the sacred pace which nature orchestrates.
Aries
Impatience and frustration may be heightened this week. Some tests could be thrown your way, which may have you questioning your strength or ability to accomplish your goals. You just remember though that these are tests! Do not let situations sent to distract you, to destroy your peace. You are in control of your reactions.
Taurus
This week calls for rest and some patience. Certain plans are still unfolding, but do not require your push at this time. Allow your guides to step in and do what they do best! Be mindful of your temper, remove items that may drain you.
Gemini
Your thoughts may look like a minefield at this time, having you overthink moments of the past. A heightened focus on personal relationships (past and present), can be expected. Take some time this week to journal your thoughts, so that when you seek closure you know exactly what you will say.
Cancer
You are always pouring into others, and sometimes it costs you; time, energy, and your peace. This week you may be challenged to call back your power, and reflect on where you may be prioritizing the wrong things. While your natural nurturing spirit is beautiful, sometimes it is not appreciated fully by those you share it with! Time to pull back.
Leo
This week calls for deep healing and tapping into some playtime for your inner child. You could be inspired by those around you, sparking creativity and confidence. Sometimes when we first approach a situation, it’s hard to see the benefits. You’re being called to take a step back and look at the bigger picture! Allow those you care deeply about to support you.
Virgo
This moon takes place in your sister sign, bringing an abundance of clarity and the confirmations you’ve been waiting for. Be mindful of your sacred space and whom you allow in it, the cosmos suggest reviewing your boundaries and adding new routines that will strengthen your physical temple.
Libra
It’s great that you aim to be the bigger person, but sometimes your idea of being the bigger person is actually silencing yourself. It’s time to check in with your personal connections and business affairs, and reflect on if you are just “going with it” in order to keep the peace, or if you’re actually respecting your boundaries and own needs. Adjustments may be required.
Scorpio
Your classic ruling planet, Mars, connects in an exact trine to Saturn, sharpening your focus and discipline. Use this week to your advantage to make the necessary changes in your routines of work and home.
Sagittarius
Emotions can feel heightened this week, as the moon squares off to the sun in your sign. However you are being reminded this week to not give up on yourself, and to be less critical! You are doing the best that you can, give yourself your flowers.
Capricorn
Positive shifts in your business affairs and personal connections can take place this week. You may surprise yourself at how easy it is to ease pressure and clear obstacles, when you communicate your intentions clearly! If an opportunity shows up at your doorstep, trust yourself to make the right decision and take a chance on yourself.
Aquarius
We started this week with the moon in your sign; and although this transit is over, you may still be feeling restless and the need for alone time. You have no problem enforcing boundaries, but try your best to do so gently, if others are involved. There’s a possibility you’re jumping to conclusions that don’t exist, creating your own inner turmoil.
Pisces
You are the main character this week, as one of your ruling planets stations direct this upcoming weekend. Your dreams may be more active than usual at this time, and you could also be feeling restless. Take this week to recharge and perhaps tune into some sound therapy.
