This month's Full Moon in tropical Pisces invites us to momentarily step back from the busyness and worry of both the everyday and larger, collective issues. Trying to sort out details or to organize a strategy carefully may lead to more uncertainty, confusion, or frustration than already exists. Instead, diverge slightly from purely rational and pragmatic approaches to gain inspiration or creative input.

A Pisces Full Moon can correlate with a turning point, breakthrough, culmination, or insight relating more to intangible aspects of reality. It can also direct our attention from excessive self-focus to the greater whole--humanity, the planet, or the universe. Neptune's wide conjunction with the Moon can magnify intuitive perception, escapist longing, and overly fantasized perceptions.

One cannot speak of a Neptunian moment without mentioning the tendency to lose clarity, and deception and glamorized appearances dominate. However, Neptune can also indicate the need for humility and surrender, where approaching situations with less certainty and more receptiveness works better. In regards to poignant world events, utilize healthy skepticism and await more details.

This New Moon also strikes an opposition with Mars in Libra, where desired endpoints can suddenly evaporate, or a specific objective becomes more complex and nuanced than previously anticipated. Step back and refocus to avoid getting consumed in frustration. If pushing ahead or trying to force an issue/project keeps hitting resistance, seek a new vision for proceeding differently.

Keep in mind that Mercury is nearing its retrograde station on September 26/27. As we come down from this Full Moon, momentum will slow, and changes in agreements, opinions, and perception will follow. Take more time before taking a position, coming to conclusions, and especially thinking you have the complete picture in view. The image is likely to change over the next few weeks, and with it, a profound adjustment to how we relate to the other.
