We’ve got a lot going on this week! Mars moves into Virgo, Mercury turns direct, and there’s a Pisces Full Moon! The cosmic gears are shifting and don’t be surprised if life’s a bit busy. Plus, we’re feeling extra sensitive in advance of tomorrow’s full moon.
First, let’s look at Mars. Arriving in Virgo today, Mars is getting down to brass tacks as they say. Virgo is the sign of working, planning, and organizing. It’s all about the details and with Mars driving the action, we’re feeling extra motivated to figure out life’s practical necessities. This is a great time to start a project, knock off items from the to-do list, or take a critical eye to the things that aren’t working. Virgo is also health, so Mars really excels when it’s focusing on making the body healthy.
Second, Mercury is now direct. This is going to amp up Mars in Virgo’s energy this week. As a result, we may be feeling an obsessive zeal to do Virgo, such as staying up till 1 am to clean the bathroom tile or get something just perfect. (I kid. Sort of. You get the idea.)
Lastly, full moons are revelations and a full moon in Pisces is a spiritual, mystical event. For all of Virgo’s myopic focus on intricacies and banality of human life, Pisces zooms us out and reminds us that there’s more to life than what we can touch and objectively know. We have to open up to the wonder as well as the magic and mystery of life. Pisces is also a deeply emotional sign and whatever emotion we’re feeling over the coming days, it’s helping us to open up to the universality of humanity — it’s suffering, it’s joy, it’s struggles, and it’s triumphs.
Pisces reminds us that we’re all one.
