If any of you have felt caught in the crossfire of the
Aquarius New Moon this past week on January 20th and a deluge of watery,
emotional Piscean energy, you were not alone or imagining it. That is because we have Mars in Pisces, in addition
to Neptune and Chiron in Pisces. On
January 19th I tweeted:
“Mars conjunct Neptune in Pisces today can help us align our ideals
with our actions if we apply ourselves.”
Mars is generally not acknowledged as being very strong in
the sign of Pisces, but I beg to differ with that theory. OK, Mars is definitely pretty macho in Aries
and Scorpio, but Mars in Pisces is a different kind of warrior because it
represents spiritual strength. And it is very creative energy. The New Moon in Aquarius is all about idealism,
innovation, new beginnings, taking risks and making changes so that we can have
a fresh start. In order to have that new
beginning, we need to let go of the past and heal. This is where all of that Pisces energy comes
in pretty handy. Pisces is no slouch in
the healing department.
Michael Lutin wrote about Mars, Neptune and Chiron in Pisces
being able to initiate major healing by opening old wounds to cleanse them or
exacerbating an already inflamed situation in his next week in review section
of his site this week.
“Mars Nep Chi can be your personal effort to
heal an old wound. It also describes
opening
an old sore or even exacerbating an already inflamed situation. One thing is certain:
If a cut as been festering, it must be opened and cleansed. It's sometimes easier
to keep repeating a mistake in an effort to achieve a different result,
an old sore or even exacerbating an already inflamed situation. One thing is certain:
If a cut as been festering, it must be opened and cleansed. It's sometimes easier
to keep repeating a mistake in an effort to achieve a different result,
Which of course is not only crazy, but leads only to greater frustration and anger. So you can see how there would be a creepy repeat offender
aspect to the approach of Mars to Chiron.”

The bottom line is that we cannot keep doing the same old
thing and expect a different outcome; that literally is the definition of
insanity. The universe is actually providing
us with two opportunities to learn this lesson by giving us two Aquarian new
moons this year. They are like
bookends. The first one was on January
20th at 0 degrees of Aquarius and the second one will occur on February
18th at 29 degrees of Aquarius.
It occurs three minutes before the sun enters the sign of Pisces. We are getting two chances to let go of
negative influences in our mind and connect with others of a like mind. Don’t blow it!
I have been experiencing transiting Chiron in Pisces
squaring my natal moon in Gemini for some time now and am eagerly anticipating
its departure in early February. Being
forced to confront old wounds, even if they manifest in a slightly different
shape, has finally taught me that I need to change my emotional approach. I am slowly learning to be more proactive and
less reactive to situations that I have no control over. By no means am I falling into the Piscean
martyr trap that was my comfort zone for so many years. I am calmly stating my truth and finding that
people respond with more respect and kindness than I have encountered in the
past. And this is happening while
Mercury is retrograde, to boot! I guess
that the letters RE in retrograde
are there for a reason!
My dreams have also been a vehicle of healing for me. They have been dredging up my worst fears,
anxieties and enemies from my past. On
January 21st, I tweeted:
“Between New Moon and Mercury retro my dreams last night were out of
this world. Talk about a blast from the
past!”
The first new moon in Aquarius occurred in my 4th
house, so it is not exactly an earth-shattering surprise that I am dealing with
old emotional wounds right now. But I
prefer to think that dealing with the emotional pain from this first new moon
in Aquarius will free me up to experience the creativity that will occur with
the second new moon in Aquarius in my 5th house in February.
There was more Pisces energy this week when the moon entered
Pisces on January 22nd. I
posted these two tweets on that day:
“Moon enters sensitive watery Pisces today and conjuncts Neptune so we
can expect kindness, empathy and strong psychic vibes.”
“Feelings of vulnerability are possible today as the moon conjuncts
Mars in Pisces and moodiness prevails.
Watch those tempers!”
I was also fortunate to be able to make use of that Moon in
Pisces energy on the 22nd by giving some Reiki treatments. I think it is a perfect way to make use of
that Pisces powerhouse of Mars, Chiron, Neptune and the Moon. Pisces is powerful emotional, creative
healing energy and don’t let anyone try to dissuade you from believing otherwise. The Pisces powerhouse is giving
that Aquarius Sun, Mercury and Venus a boost.
But don’t forget that Venus enters Pisces on January 27th,
and Venus is exalted in the sign of Pisces.
So compassion, healing and breakthroughs are entirely possible. Don’t be afraid of letting go of whatever is
not working emotionally for you.
