New Moon in Pisces 2021

On Saturday March 13th, at 2:22 AM PST, the Sun and Moon align at 23 degrees Pisces 4 minutes. This is our last New Moon of the Solar year. We have a grand opportunity each year when this New Moon happens, as we end the old before we begin anew.

Pisces is the last sign of the zodiac, and represents the clearing of the hidden, unobserved cues and motivations behind our actions.Being a Mutable (flexible, adaptable) Water sign (empathetic, sensitive), Pisces energies can show us all whether or not we are willing to grow and let go, or will forever excuse our behavior as “meaningful”. Ruled by Neptune, the planet of mysteries, magic and fantasy; we are encouraged to release ourselves from what burdens us. But how do we do this is the question. Do we take the high road to clarity through study, research, prayer and meditation and go deeply into our subconscious for answers, or, do we take the low road and seek to escape through procrastination, substance abuse, sexual abuse....looking to blame others for our actions?

At the same time we have the planet Neptune conjoining this Sun/Moon in Pisces at 20 degrees. Again, Neptune rules Pisces, so this alignment strengthens this occasion with spiritual wisdom and compassion bestowed upon us. Add to this the planet Venus at 19 degrees Pisces, and this stellium is encouraging love.

This is a very creative energy, artistically as well as mentally. We can prepare ourselves for the Spring Equinox coming one week after this New Moon (3/20/21) by exercising our creative brain with activities as “story boarding” our goals, or dreaming and writing in our dream journal. Empty out the waste basket of your soul by seeking new solutions to old problems. After all, we are in a new world of our making, and making it more in the correct frequency, and high vibration, rather than low, makes it so much better! On this planet there are many temptations, good and bad, and we truly have the choice which path we take. It takes courage, ambition, and a high self esteem to break through the veil of self ignorance we may have presented to ourselves.

So, I am encouraging each of you to access this momentous event and do some inner work. It will be easier to access your deepest self due to these planets and luminaries coming together.

The energies are inspiring an open heart and compassion for ourselves and others. It is especially true with our concern for animals and nature. With this influence we see we are all part of the whole, we are also the guardians and caretakers of all of life. Pisces finds it hard to see where the lines divide us. We so need this understanding now. When you access your higher self, you see your part in the big picture, the role you play. You can choose to “edit” this version through self examination, journey work, hypnosis, altered states; all things Pisces.

So imagine you are at the end of a trail, and you see a fork in the road. One arrow points to freedom, and the other points to self gratification. As you study each sign, you are flooded with impulses that pull you in each direction. Yet, you know you are on the path to your highest goals. Without hesitation, take the road to freedom. Freedom from self condemnation, low self esteem, unworthiness, no confidence; or the other extreme of narcissism, excuses, blaming others for our misbehavior. My Father used to say, “you answer to the man in the mirror” in life, and the goal is to love your reflection.

You gain your own self esteem by breaking bad habits and moving forward free from addiction. This isn’t only physically, but mentally and spiritually as well.You may be addicted to a “response” when you don’t feel safe; so you mourn the idea of losing your “go to”, reliable numbing techniques in order to survive, and make excuses for yourself. You may be addicted to people that you know are no good for you. But you continue to have them in your life for reasons only you know. Time to look in the mirror and admit to ourselves why we do what we do, and consciously choose to stop it. Now is the time.

So with determination of a higher purpose, follow your moral compass to the sights you can set on this New Moon. Gather all parts of yourself into the dreamtime; set your intention before going to sleep on 3/12/2021, to see the beauty and harmony in your world as it can be; without changing a thing but your perception. Follow this guidance and create a life worth living. It is up to you.

Recipe to your HEART

Luck vs Blessings week is coming to a wrap up tomorrow. And today we focus on the physical aspect to connecting to our “luck” through nature’s “blessings” of reaping the fruits of our labor.

This is a recipe that has all my favorite ingredient and it has the green and the red that always remind me of grounding in my heart! Green can represent the heart chakra, luck, money, earth and Red reminds me of heart, passion, grounding, to stop and enjoy the moment.

Below you will find beautiful “Spiritual” meaning to Beets

Beets: Alchemical Spiritual Properties

Beets are powerful cleansers of blood and liver. They are amazing cancer fighters.

If blood is clean we think clearly and we have common sense.

Good food is spiritual food.

Beets are the root chakra activators; they keep us connected with Mother Earth.

They also stimulate heart chakra and help open ones heart. Beets were sacred to the Greek goddess of love, Aphrodite. Romans used beets as an aphrodisiac.

Beetroot was used in ancient times to cure fever, digestive disorders and constipation. Beets help heal old wounds from the past. Rudolf Steiner said that “eating beets at a Full Moon will kill any worms that one might have. The effects of the root of any plant are stronger during a Full Moon.”

Full Moon in Virgo 2021

On February 27th at 12:17 AM PST the Sun and Moon oppose each other exactly, bringing us the Full Moon in Virgo. The Sun is stationed at 8 degrees 57 minutes Pisces, and the Moon is at 8 degrees 57 minutes Virgo. This Pisces/Virgo axis is very interesting, as it represents our collective unconscious (Pisces) and what we dream to be true, and our rational mind (Virgo) and what we see with our own eyes.

Pisces is the last sign of the zodiac, and the last month of the solar year. It is the sign of endings, of graduation. It is the last Water Sign of the year occurring in Winter, and symbolizes breaking the ice and preparing the ground for the seeds of Spring to sprout. Ruling the last house, it shows us what needs attention before rebirth. It is potentially the highest version of humanity, or, the least conscious, escaping responsibility. It is ruled by Neptune; the planet that shows us the fork in the road between the low road and the high road. The low road is cloudy, confused, and excuses one for fleeing from obligations; the high road delivers spiritual wisdom, compassion and creativity. So this energy provides us choices to make on how we proceed for our highest good.

Opposite this is the Virgo Full Moon. We know Full Moons are intense emotionally, and they affect our​ physical bodies as well as our behavior. When in the sign of Virgo, an Earth Sign representing the harvest; we are analyzing, organizing and taking inventory in order to learn from what worked and what didn’t in our “garden”, or life. This sign is ruled by Mercury, the messenger, and is very sharp. This is a duty bound, service oriented sign, and takes its obligations seriously. It makes us strive for perfection, and can over scrutinize and feel like a wet blanket. Again, balancing the energy to best use it.

So these two opposite energies are the topics of this event. Are you in balance between the dreamer and the physical manifestor? Do you follow through on your aspirations, or do you avoid making decisions that will commit you to possible failure? This Full Moon could bring stark realizations (Virgo) that shatter your version of reality (Pisces), and open up new perceptions of clarity. Of truth. With so much happening in our world right now, I can only speculate on how this will occur. It is global, as well as personal. There’s speculation we may have extreme weather events with water and wind, or flooding. There’s also speculation of global events that change our perspective of the truth.

My notion is always to keep an open mind, and know that I don’t know everything happening behind the scenes. In this age of Aquarius, we are meant to open our minds and hearts to freedom, for ourselves and everyone else. When we find out about the injustices happening around the globe, it enlightens us to the truth which can be very disconcerting. We must take a stand on what we learn, and how it affects our lives.

On the personal level, the Virgo Full Moon can open our eyes by digging in to find the feather of truth. The Pisces Sun can be of assistance by setting goals that are for the good of mankind, with the guidance of spiritual ambition. We each have a gift to share, a unique take on life, and now is the time to bring that forward. No more procrastination (Pisces), no more low self esteem (Virgo); time for dreaming the big dream (Pisces) and organizing your life to accomplish it (Virgo). Every sign has it’s lower and higher use of it’s energies, and it’s up to us how we use it.

So with this Full Moon, we can see the results of our plans set on the New Moon. Even bigger, we can look at the consequences of the choices we have made for ourselves and our lives to see if we were successful. With the echoes of the past year resounding in our heads, we need to clear the decks, wipe the hard drive, whatever metaphor you need for letting go of past beliefs and expectations before being reborn. We are in a new world that we are recreating. Don’t bring along the garbage on this new adventure. Let it melt away like the snow of winter, and set your sights on the renewal Spring brings.

I hope this Full Moon brings about the realizations that nothing is what it was, and under our new circumstances there is an opportunity to recreate. The sky's the limit if only you believe it. Let go of the fears that block you from climbing up the ladder for a grander view and life. Get out of your own way and access your highest version!
