Full Moon in Pisces: Opportunities for Inspired Work
Moon opposite Sun- 9/2/20 @
12:21am CDT
Welcome to the Harvest Moon,
Northern Earthlings! Welcome to the Seed
Moon, Southern Earthlings! This is the
time where, no matter the hemisphere we call home, Luna illuminates the sacred
in the work we are doing for our Earth.
At the New Moon of this cycle,
we were kissed by the Muse but unable to see around the barriers for a direct
outlet to shine. Now we have a clear
opportunity to use the inspiration that has been building…even with those
barriers still present. It’s tricky, but
perhaps we’ve learned a trick or two while attempting to integrate our ‘needs’
with our ‘musts’ through the waxing moon.

The opportunity illuminated now, which can set us up well for the waning phase to come, is from Uranus Retrograde in Taurus. This planet of sudden innovation, moving with an alternative perspective in the Venusian fixed earth, is inviting us to step out of the box. In good rapport with the luminary opposition, Uranus can provide the nudge we need to get our inspiration flowing. From Pisces Moon to Virgo Sun, the illumination is about service and how we marry the details of our mundane efforts with the larger story.
Virgo Sun reminds us that even
the minutia of our mundane lives holds the sacred within it. When woven with care and conscious attention,
the tapestry of what we are creating in each day reflects the cosmic order of
all things. Pisces Moon reflects that earthen
wisdom with a mystical and watery flow. Moon
whispers, ‘remember the symbiosis between the microcosm and the macrocosm…dream
your inspiration into being.’
Of course, many may be
ambivalent to this call. Even with Uranus
bringing a jolt of opportunity, it’s still more subtle than the cardinal square
energy of this time. Venus, Mars, and
Saturn Retrograde are in a dynamic T-Square now…and a somewhat ‘punchy’ Mars in
Aries is at the apex, activated to respond to the tension. That’s not a dynamic we can ignore…and it feels
more necessary to address.
But what Uranus Retrograde is
suggesting is, ‘let’s address these oppositions with something we haven’t tried
yet.’ The whole theme of this lunation
seems to be pointing to the urge to ‘get creative’. And the Uranian version of that is often
something unconventional. The
conventional use of Mars in Aries dynamics is to get angry and burn through
something quickly. It’s an unchecked
reaction that is pretty common for humans to employ when things get
frustrating. It inevitably leads to burnout
at best…and battle-hunger at worst. But
Mars is also approaching a retrograde station…with the imperative looming to
slow down to a halt and shift gears by September 9th. How can we, too, slow down when everything
seems so pressing? Well, what haven’t
you tried yet? There is an alternative
route awaiting our response…one that gives an option for our creativity to shine.
What’s the subtle call that
awakens the dream for you?
