Lunations of all kinds are the some of the best times for magickal works, rituals and intentional work. A New Moon is always optimal for making a change, getting out of a rut and planting seeds for the future. This New Moon in Pisces brings up the Opportunity to connect with a higher power in our lives. For some, this may be their “ will within” the higher self or inner guide. Others may call upon divinities or elemental energy sources for guidance. Regardless of our devotional style, the sign post of Pisces season calls for trust in the invisible process and powers of life, a leaning in to the Intelligent unfoldment of the Universe. This event is supported by some interesting players- Mars, the God of War in his exaltation in Capricorn and Uranus, the Revolutionary in Taurus. After our Luminary’s speak to us in their symbolic ways- we find inspired actions to follow. Mercury Retrograde is also at play- in Pisces our minds are murky, be careful of your thoughts and communications. Know what is a Siren’s Call and what is your EssentialTruth. Venus and Jupiter make some low key invitations to the Moon to keep relating to ourselves and others in a positive way, to KEEP THE FAITH and dream big. Soon, the Vernal Equinox and the Astrological start to a year of final skin shedding before the New Paradigm begins. Mars/ South Node in Capricorn is challenging, key is not to focus on loss, being stuck but focusing on any actions that can bring fresh attention and energy to the past and what we can do to improve our personal and collective future. Follow your gut, take responsibility for asking for help from the Universe, a higher power, magick and learn also to follow our gut, intuition and psychic knowing to bring fresh energies and ideas. Below is some inspiration for the lunation by Sun Sign/Ascendant. I added a theme for your wishes and an affirmation. Add these into a small or large ritual for optimal use of the energy of the time! Aries: This year is about manifesting a new direction and in order for you to birth it, you must trust in a higher power, your soul as “daemon” or genius and holding space for the unknown horizon and your ability to be guided torwards it. Make wishes that connect you with your inner calls and unconscious wishes. Your New Moon affirmation is “I am one with my Soul, the sacred flame of my life.” Taurus: For you Taurus, shedding your skin and allowing the “Freedom from the known” is the key to 2020.
