Harvest Full Moon in Pisces: Embrace the Unknown

The full moon in Pisces perfects at 21 degrees in Pisces at 12:32 AM ET on the 14th, so you’ll really feel it on the evening of Friday the 13th. Maybe you’ve already felt this building energy as the week has progressed, and this cycle reaches its crescendo. I know I have. 

I’m in the deepest throes of book writing now. As I get closer to the finish line and my momentum continues to build, I find myself fully raptured in my work. I’m in this process, full-hearted, and keeping the faith. Writing a book is a massive leap.  It involves a lot of red pen scratches and a whole lot of trust. 

Keeping the faith is the lesson of this full moon.

Pisces rules our dreams and subconscious, and this moon conjoins Neptune in Pisces and opposes the sun in Virgo. Meanwhile, Mars is also traveling in close proximity to the sun in Virgo and opposes the moon and Neptune, too. With this full moon so close to dreamy Neptune, this is the perfect moment to really sink into your intuition. Listen to your inner knowing and trust whatever it tells you, even if it doesn’t seem logical. Especially if it doesn’t seem logical. 

I can’t tell you the number of people who’ve shared with me that their digestion is off this week. Because of the escalating intuitive energy, it’s normal for things to feel emotional. Virgo rules digestion too, so the enteric nervous system has a lot to process during this season of transition. Remember, going slowly, drinking peppermint tea, and adding ginger to your food helps calm the belly.

Astrology is about cycles: Look Back to Look Forward

To use this full moon to its greatest potential, think back to March 17, 2018 — the date of the new moon in Pisces that seeded this full moon. Back then, the new moon provided you with an opportunity to plant a new beginning in the domain of Pisces. You should see evidence of that intention cropping up now. 

Full moons also ask us to let go of anything that is not in service of our highest potential. So, take an honest assessment of your life.

What are you saying yes to that you really need to say no to?
Where are you not honoring your boundaries?

Pisces, the last sign of the zodiac, embodies an innate sense of wisdom. As a mutable water sign, a full moon in Pisces helps us to sense the surrounding energy fields of people and places. It opens us up to our intuitive capacity.

Transcend the Mundane Through Your Dreams

Ruled by imaginative Neptune, under this full moon, your visions are both potent and possible. Lean toward the arts and spiritual exploration as a method of bringing your dreams into reality while processing your more earthly emotions. Think of artistic pursuits as a way to give yourself a much-needed timeout from physical reality—you can dance, paint, or draw your way back to emotional equilibrium.

Many traditional religious institutions possess the Piscean undertones of service and sacrifice. But with this conviction comes the idea that to truly be of service is also to suffer. This is the leftover of thousands of years of misguided religious principles—not something for you to harbor within your subconscious.

It’s imperative you don’t carry that with you in this lifetime, love.

Now’s the time to embody your sage-like wisdom. Between your creative intuition and the depths of your empathy, you have tremendous gifts to share with the world. Give yourself permission to drop the dogmatic baggage and rise.

My Personal Journey

During this full moon, and in the process of writing this book, I’ve had to be honest with myself about my commitments and relationships. This cycle has asked me to let go of things that were once in alignment with the service of this greater goal. It’s been uncomfortable, and sometimes scary, as I release things I thought would always be a part of life and business. But in the end, I know it’s a necessary part of the process, and I’m continuing to allow my intuition to guide me.

Ask yourself:
What am I being asked to clarify in the name of my goals?
What dreams did you set in motion back in spring 2018 that I’m required to tend to now?

Goals require devotion, and this full moon insists you trust your gut to stay committed to your dreams. 

For me, I’m going to continue to listen to the rhythms of the cosmos and my own intuition and continue to fully immerse myself in this book-writing process. It’s such a gift to be able to bring this into the world and I want to cherish and honor it as such. I’ll be blogging less frequently/consistently for a bit while I finish it up, but you can still find me on Instagram and get my weekly Cosmic Health horoscopes at Well+Good.

And get ready… because when I return from my book cocoon, I’ll have so much to say! And even more excitement and positivity to share.

Tell me, what are you letting go of this full moon? What’s coming up for you that harkens back to March 2018? Are you ready to say “no” where you’re not currently honoring your boundaries? Let me know in the comments!

All my love,
Jenn
