FULL MOON IN PISCES:: Embrace Your Ethereal

By Lexi Marie of @primally_cosmic_yoga

We are experiencing a very magical time with this Full Moon of Virgo season on September 10, 2022. The Moon makes its way into the dreamy & mystical realm of Pisces at 18 degrees occurring around 2:59 am PST. 

Pisces is the final sign of the zodiac. It represents dreams, intuition, emotions, creativity, and imagination. The shadow side of Pisces is illusions and manipulation. 

Themes for this month include: surrendering to your Higher Self, embracing your sensitivity, inviting in the guidance of your intuition, trusting in the mystery of the universe and the magic of the unknown.

Each month as the sun opposes the moon we have the opportunity to release and renew and take stock of the past 2 weeks that have gone by since the New Moon. A time to pause and assess, let it all be illuminated.

Ask yourself 

How have I honored my intentions I set two weeks ago with the Virgo New Moon?

What has transpired?

We are confronted with the energies of Virgo, an Earth sign, and Pisces, a water sign to experience the full spectrum of energies available to us on the planet. They are opposed in their nature and this duality of energies that occurs each month with a Full Moon provides the opportunity for much needed rest and reflection.

Take it Easy

After the following weeks of responsibilities, healthy routines, details and structure of Virgo we are getting a well deserved and very much needed reprieve here in Pisces. 

This is the perfect time to “JUST LET GO” as astrologer Molly McCord advises. We may have accomplished much over the last few weeks or nothing at all. This does not matter with the Pisces Full Moon. 

You are Ethereal

We are being asked to drop our attachment and control over our Earthly endeavors and to embrace the cosmic dance that is this reality. 

This Full Moon in Pisces is conjuncting Neptune in Pisces giving us an added dose of this watery imaginative vibe. Neptune represents our Higher Self.

Allow yourself to bask in the ocean of inspiration & intuition – but just be careful you don’t get lost out at sea. Neptune is the home of Pisces and can lead us to mistaking illusions for truth. 

Move Like Water

As Virgo season goes, we have been highly cerebral and relying on our mental processes for guidance and decision making. 

This Full Moon balances out these powerful mental energies with a dose of emotionality and sensitivity. We must allow ourselves to be swept up by the spiritual realm this weekend to fully make the most of these subtle energetic level ups!

Free Your Mind

Limit over-thinking & over-doing this weekend, don’t worry the mind will be waiting for you next week as we still have a few more weeks of Virgo energy. 

Allow yourself to just be. Presence and patience are your allies this Full Moon as the silence is required from our minds for our guidance and intuition to have the space to breath and express themselves. 

I am reminded by the great quote by Osho when tuning into this energy, “Don’t seek, don’t search, don’t ask, don’t knock, don’t demand – relax. If you relax, it comes. If you relax, it is there. If you relax, you start vibrating with it.” — Osho

Trigger vs Truth

Sometimes when needing to discern between impulses of the mind or past pains versus the true intuitive guidance of the soul it can feel difficult as we live in a highly mentally dominated society. 

Just remember that intuition comes when you least expect it, it likes to feel like a welcome guest. It is quiet, gentle and soft, it whispers and nudges. 

Come home to your heart, your sensitive spirit, and the imaginative magical creation that you are. Embrace the cosmic dance!
