Astro Tips New Moon in Pisces, March 16, 2018

The New Moon is in Pisces on March 16: the veil is lifted; our separateness dissolves like a big ex-hale.  

Some of us will experience the dissolving of boundaries during this New Moon period. Perhaps it will be in a dream. Perhaps you will experience profound compassion while watching a movie or hearing someone’s story, or while meditating or listening to music.  Some of us will feel connection with an animal, with nature, with the heavens.  The Moon joins Neptune, the planet that dissolves what it touches. The Moon is associated with so many things, but for sure it has domain over our emotional core.  We are destined to have surprising emotions, or sweet emotions this weekend.  Our separateness dissolves like a big ex-hale. 

The New Moon offers information about our confusion and self-sabotage.

The other side of Neptune is confusion and self-sabotage. We can get so sensitive that we lose sight of what is real and not real. Common sense can evaporate while we enter our magical, make-believe place.  The Moon and Neptune sitting together often point to addiction . . .  addiction to drugs, food and alcohol as well as addiction to perfection and addiction to having things our own way.  This is a New Moon for addressing all forms of addiction. 

The Moon will illuminate Chiron, the Wounded Healer.

The Sun, Chiron, Moon and Neptune all in Pisces make a flowing connection with expansive Jupiter.  Jupiter can make all things bigger. If there are problems of addiction, emotional confusion, or mental stress, Jupiter will bring it to our attention.  At the same time, the energy of Jupiter can help. Chiron, the sensitive, wounded healer in all of us, is on the stage with this New Moon. Chiron in Pisces for eight years has brought our collective attention to the wounds of our home, Planet Earth.  Pisces rules the oceans.  While Chiron has travelled through Pisces, our awareness has turned to our wounded oceans. Who has not seen the photos of our plastic filled seas?  Pisces and Neptune also rule suffering.  Neptune has kept many things behind the veil for many years. As Chiron finishes its visit to Pisces, the Me Too explosion has opened up a hidden chapter for healing. People are opening up and exposing the truth around power and abuse. What do you need to heal in your own life?  There are wounds around abandonment, aloneness, abuse, self worth, confidence and self love.  Allow the energy of Chiron to guide you into appropriate healing.

  

Mars and Saturn in Capricorn encourage us to clarify our integrity in all that we do.

By the end of the month, the Sun will step into independent Aries, and Mars and Saturn will come together in Capricorn.  As we approach that event, we have the opportunity to focus on our own worth. While some boundaries dissolve with the New Moon-Neptune connection, Mars and Saturn encourage healthy boundaries to help us focus on what is genuinely important to us. Mars and Saturn in Capricorn flash beautiful supportive thoughts:  embrace your own integrity, walk your talk, don’t let anyone talk you out of being the person you are.

Awaken to your own unique contribution to the matrix of the All.

The beauty of this New Moon in Pisces offers a rich package:  magic, creative expression, mystical experiences, profound compassion, meaningful dreams, the lowering of the veil, the dissolving of unnecessary fences and boundaries, as well as, a blast of new energy for self healing, for motivation and for standing tall and claiming our place. We can be who we are and be caring of others.  We can let go of our separation from others and all that is.  At the same time, we can awaken to our own unique place in the matrix of the All.
