This is the deep breath before you jump, the prayer before the race, the meditation before the speech.
The intentions you set on this Pisces New Moon will have more momentum behind them to bloom & grow than any other new moon this year.

New Moons always represent some type of new beginning, and with this new moon being right before the Equinox, and the start of the new Astrological Year, this New Moon is asking us to get serious about our dreams & the vision we have for the coming year.
Even if the path ahead isn’t quite clear yet, we can still align ourselves with the deeper spiritual trajectory of our lives. Remember, you can’t miss your destiny!
Here is where I’m reminded of one of the central prayers in A Course in Miracles that says, “What would You have me do? What would You have me say, and to whom?” (You is in reference to the Holy Spirit, God, The Universe, or however you define the Creative Force that moves all of Creation). You can use this prayer if you’re feeling uncertain as to what your dream or vision is for the next year, as a way to align your will with the Divine Will.
This New Moon is also helping us to integrate & intentionally work with the energy of the Saturn Neptune conjunction at 0° Aries that occurred on February 20th (you can read the post I wrote about it here). In essence, Saturn & Neptune both entering into Aries, and then meeting at 0° Aries, or the Zero Point of the Zodiac, initiated all of us into an entirely new era where we are being called to become the spiritual warriors of our lives, cultivating the discipline & devotion to build the world we know in our hearts can exist.
Whatever energies started to ignite for you around February 20th, this new moon is here to strengthen your spiritual connection to that dream.

Take advantage of this moment before the momentum to drop in…
What is the larger vision for your life that is rising to the surface of your awareness? Even if this vision feels like a fantasy right now, how can you strengthen your spiritual connection to allow yourself to be guided to create a better reality for your life?
Listen to your heart. How do you want to feel in the coming 6-12 months?
ASPECTS TO THE PISCES NEW MOON
- Conjunct (aligned with) Neptune at 1° Aries and Saturn at 3° Aries:
- Neptune is the ruler of Pisces, and his influence is amplifying all the dreamy, visionary, mystical nature of this New Moon. Saturn brings structure to our dreams, and asks us to deepen our discipline & devotion to the vision we have for our lives. Saturn is the Master Builder, and Neptune represents our dreams. Saturn & Neptune in Aries ask us to become Spiritual Warriors, and cultivate the discipline to stand up for our Divinity by sharing our gifts & letting our magic out so we can leave behind a legacy of love. Conjunct the Pisces New Moon, Neptune & Saturn in Aries are the bridge from the last sign of the Zodiac (Pisces) to the first sign of the Zodiac (Aries). They are holding the door open to the momentum that is coming.

- Sextile (positively supported by) Uranus at 28° Taurus:
- Uranus is the wild card, the rebel, the revolutionary, the genius inside all of us. Whenever Uranus is involved, we do well to expect the unexpected. Be open to sudden changes, synchronicity, and doing something radically different. Uranus’ medicine can sometimes be shocking, but underneath it all, he is always trying to liberate us so that we can be more of our weird, wacky, truly authentic, magical selves.
Saturn & Neptune conjunct the New Moon say, “Stabilize the dream, and ground & anchor into your spiritual practices, so that when the momentum comes, you can hold the vision.” While Uranus in positive support asks us to make sure that in this vision, we are truly free to be our most authentic selves, shining our light uninhibited.
The 25th Gene Key is one of the most magical, deeply loving Gene Keys in the whole set. It’s literally called the Breath of Love, and it’s all about our journey back to the heart, to trust in life, and in the benevolence of the Holy Spirit within & around us all the time.
But how do we do that? Especially when the world is falling apart…
Constriction is the shadow of this Gene Key. It highlights our resistance to accepting things the way they are. Now this acceptance isn’t about being okay with injustice or violence. It starts closer to home, inside our own bodies.
When we resist what is – the way we feel – from the physical sensations in our bodies, to our emotions, to the thoughts driving us mad, we lose the ground beneath our feet. When we can’t accept and be present with what is, we have no traction to move from.
Which is why the Gift frequency is Acceptance. We first start with accepting the way we feel without making it part of us: Anxiety is present, Anger is present, Grief is present, Fear is present. Then we breathe. The breath here is everything. Deepening the breath liberates us from our thinking and overanalyzing the situation.
“Constriction exists wherever love is absent, and it is the underlying source of all human suffering.” This is similar to the idea in Marianne Williamson’s book, A Return to Love, that the absence of love is fear, and that a miracle is a shift in perception that allows us to move from fear to love.
This New Moon is asking us to soften our perspective of ourselves and the magnificent life that we have the ability to create, if only we give ourselves permission to dream big! The first step on this path is accepting our inner divinity, and the Light & the gifts that are within us, longing to be given.
“Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, ‘Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous?’ Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There’s nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won’t feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It’s not just in some of us; it’s in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.” – Marianne Williamson, A Return to Love.
In our true nature, we live with our hearts wide open, and our gifts just naturally and easily tumble out of us.
- How much time do you give yourself for daydreaming, especially in or around water, envisioning your most ideal future, and generally letting your mind soften, allowing yourself to receive these beautiful visions of your future? Can this be more often?
- When you get still & quiet, what is the big, beautiful, ideal vision for your life shimmering just beneath the surface of your awareness?
- How can you cultivate this vision to grow, with discipline & devotion in the coming 6 -12 months? What systems & structures need to be put into place so you can be a strong, grounded, and clear vessel for your vision?
- Where have you been shrinking so that other people won’t feel insecure around you, or in order to be “correct” or perfect, or follow the rules?
- How would you feel if you finally liberated yourself from these small-minded thoughts? How would you feel if you finally let yourself love big and loud – love yourself, your gifts, your creations, your friends, your enemies, the whole stinking lot?!
- What patterns or habits of dissociation, deflection, confusion, or avoidance of your brilliance need to be released before you move into the new Astrological Year?
- Accepting where you are: Write down a list describing your exact current situation. Then write down a list of where you want to be, how you want to feel. When you look at these two lists, do you see any pathways to get from where you are to where you want to be?
- If not, write a letter to Spirit, God/Goddess, Creator, asking for help in making the leap. Let the Divine know that you are willing to see things differently and open to taking inspired action in the direction of your dreams.
- Can you allow yourself to dream even bigger, even verging into the realm of fantasy? What would you dream for yourself & the collective if anything was possible?
