On another level, this full moon is about health. With the sun in Virgo it's the season to narrow focus, cleanse and purify the areas of your life that are full of toxins. With Jupiter there too, the details can be magnified for better intellectual understanding helping with big picture long term planning and organization while adding more enthusiasm to starting a better health routine that we all should have new opportunities for this next year. Now the moon enters Pisces conjunct Neptune and we start to understand where we have been self-sabotaging our life, body and health. Disillusionment is possible with this full moon around certain dreams and fantasies that you neglected to see the details of; or illuminating illusory activity in your daily routine that keeps you controlled by something outside of self and unhealthy, such as addictions in any of its many forms. Something has to change and be released with this full moon.
When the moon enters Pisces Saturday it brings retreat energy; doing something that helps the mind escape into other realities - reading, watching tv/movies, games, sleeping, daydreaming, fantasizing, etc. but even better to be used for compassion helping self and others, or at least bringing more balance back into your spiritual routine and practice, which is all very much supported by the universe. This moon will help us to look up and beyond, incorporating more imagination, creativity and intuition in how we perceive our life, body and spirit. This will help uplift us and ease the critical Virgo energy a bit. However, there is still a need to stay grounded as this full moon in Pisces w Neptune is powerful sensitive spiritual energy that can have us looking up to the heavens and beyond, floating away into outer space.
As the ancients once wrote:
"And if Man, owing to half-wisdom, acts and lives and thinks of the Universe as merely a dream (akin to his own finite dreams) then indeed does it so become for him, and like a sleep-walker he stumbles ever around and around in a circle, making no progress, and being forced into an awakening at last by his falling bruised and bleeding over the Natural Laws which he ignored. Keep your mind ever on the Star, but let your eyes watch over your footsteps, lest you fall into the mire by reason of your upward gaze. Read the message and follow the example of "the wise"--avoiding the mistake of "the half-wise" who perish by reason of their folly. "
- The Kybalion--
Meaning, be sure to allow the dream world in but don't forget about what it means to be living in the material world either, where nature has structure and laws that you are part of, needing to be practical with what you find. This full moon is asking to balance both of these polarities as one. This is a magical full moon with spirituality, mysticism and psychic energy that can be harnessed through ritual but add some practical magic as well narrowing your vision to areas that have been neglected, using Jupiter's energy to magnify what was unclear before, and you will be right in alignment with this full moon.
Some people that are very unaware and don't have a spiritual practice might become spacey and confused during this full moon, wanting to retreat and escape the energy moving through them by drinking, drugs and other addictions. If so the key to not allowing self to be washed away by waves of the sea it to fully lock your feet into the ground, grab onto something steady in your reality while remaining conscious and allowing what is no longer useful in your life/routine to be cleansed and washed away. Be extra compassionate to self and others at this time for best results.
All this new illumination will help us get ready for the Virgo New Moon/Eclipse coming up in mid September that allows for new beginnings in matters of health, skills and routine.First though, something has to change. Happy Pisces full moon!
