The past few weeks were like a Uranian wrecking ball with shocks and norm-busting at warp speed. The work is to recalibrate your mind and nervous system to maintain your balance, as we are being stretched and strengthened. Om Shanti Om… 🙏🏼 🕉️ 💜
Mars Retrograde is basically standing still, preparing to turn Direct on Feb 23 and is in harmony with Saturn in Pisces, supporting concentrated effort, patience and actions that can create lasting results. You are putting down roots wherever you are taking methodical actions and the results of your efforts will bear fruit later.
Feb 14 – Mercury in Pisces. Mercury leaves rational Aquarius to move into sensitive Pisces, ruler of dreams (waking and sleeping), transcendence, compassion, empathy and Oneness. Multidimensional, flashes of knowing to subtle prompts that we must recognize to pick up.
Mercury in Pisces is a channel to your Intuitive Guidance, the most empowering gift and skill ever – once you master your ability to tune in and trust it, it will never lead you astray. Mercury in Pisces is also abundant creative imagery, stellar for writing, storytelling, poetry and photography – all forms of communication, especially non-verbal, and for visioning your future. I say, “If it’s in your consciousness, it’s meant for you.”
Whatever takes you beyond your linear mind and opens you to a higher space that is fertile and rich with imagination is the realm of Mercury in Pisces. Artists, spiritual practitioners, and writers are well served by this energy. Just be mindful to stay high and don’t fall down a rabbit hole in fear or worry (a misuse of imagination, a Mercury in Pisces shadow).
Feb 18 – Sun in Pisces. As the Sun enters mystical Pisces, we usually feel a distinct shift in the collective, but we already have Mercury, Saturn, the North Node of Destiny and Neptune in sensitive Pisces, so this area of the zodiac is already ripe with potential for transcendence beyond the 3D, for awakening, readiness to release what’s complete or what has been outgrown, and to hold space for the dreams to come – and maybe everything everywhere all at once (multidimensional).
Pisces is yin energy, totally receptive with no boundaries – and with the major chaos occurring right now, the Pisces lineup feels it. Therefore (depending on your chart), you may feel exhausted or like you’re floating with no clear direction – and if that’s so, don’t try to force a solution. You may be in the midst of an unwinding, in which old ego structures are being dissolved. Or maybe you are highly sensitive and aren’t in a supportive environment at this time. Or you may need a healer or advisor to help to lift you out of a lower frequency (confusion, stuck energy). Gently honor your rhythm and allow yourself to receive the care you need.
On the other hand, because the Pisces Sun is co-ruled by Jupiter in Gemini, you may feel hopeful and ready to grow ideas that you are incubating. You may be inspired to offer your gifts as a healing or solution for a problem, having faith in your abilities and contributions. If so, use the inspiration to work on the project, but know that we’ll have two Retrogrades (Venus and Mercury) in March, as well as two Eclipses, so it’s not the time to launch a new project just yet, as things will change. Keep working on what you’ve got and you’ll be ready when the time is right.
Feb 20 – Mercury square Jupiter. Big dreams and big ideas. Oh boy, this is the ultimate brainstorming or networking aspect! Expansive, visionary, optimistic, amazing plans, but probably lacking some practical aspects or details. Great for creativity, but not for exchanging $$, signing contracts or making commitments. It’s a square. Something will probably be missing. But you will have so much fun creating the framework, the plan, gathering the crew – whatever you do. Enjoy – it can lead to great things!
This week’s energy is considerably softer than where we’ve been and there are several possibilities as to where you go with it. You may feel inspired and tap into the higher realms, doing inner work, creative work, spiritual work or service work. You may use this time for rest and rejuvenation, for rehab, to restore your well being and retreat from the busy world.
Or you may be in a space of confusion, fear, anxiety, worry, depression that is serious and you need support to help you out of it. If this is you, ask for help. It is all around you… do not sit with it by yourself.
Pisces has an underlying faith that things will work out. Sometimes the faith is strong and clear – you know it and feel it, and sometimes it’s a whisper in the back of the mind. But it’s there.
All is in Divine Order. Keep the faith. We’re just getting started…
As always, I am grateful for your presence on our journey together.
