New Moon in Pisces 2025

New Moon in Pisces 2025

On February 27th at 4:44 PM PST the Sun and Moon align at 9 degrees Pisces 40 minutes. I love the timestamp as it is the angel number for me;)

Every New Moon is an opportunity to set a new course for your life. And, with this sign being the last and final sign of the Solar Year, we are tying up endings in our existence. This Mutable Water sign is the most sensitive of all the signs, and due to it being the last in the zodiac, it helps us to be willing to change into the new form set for the new Solar year! This sign is all about what needs attention before rebirth. It is potentially the highest version of humanity, or, the least conscious, escaping responsibility.

In setting goals we are drawn to the Spiritual aspirations in life. With this double Pisces energy we are likely to manifest them more easily. We are also guided to creativity of all kinds, and definitely should be explored. Neptune rules Pisces, the planet of the highest highs and lowest lows. The highs come from a closeness to Spirit, to nature, to animals and birds and all creatures. The lows come from an escapist nature that chooses to look the other way, to procrastinate or neglect their well being. This sign encourages us to look within for answers, to meditate or contemplate what is for our highest good.

On this occasion the Sun and Moon are squared by Jupiter at 12 degrees Gemini.  You will have the ability to see connections between seemingly unrelated ideas or words when Jupiter is in this sign, and to bring them together. You can excel in any field requiring clear intellect, and verbal and communication skills. You may have an insatiable curiosity and may read or watch television constantly in order to satisfy your need for mental stimulation. Your mind never stops with this placement.

When Jupiter squares the Sun you have big aspirations and the desire to succeed in life in a grand way. You tend to exaggerate, to promise more than is possible, and to misjudge through over-optimism. However, you never lose your hopes for the future. Restlessness and discontent with responsibilities and limitations in life can be troublesome for you, so don’t fall into Pisces' trap of making a break for it.

When Jupiter squares the Moon you have a buoyant, cheerful disposition and reach out to others in a warm, open, friendly way. Your emotional generosity and lack of pettiness will lead others to seek you out for help, sympathy, or advice. You are willing to overlook others' faults, but you can sometimes overdo your charitableness.

The goal is to not overextend yourself in your wish to be of service to others. To not scatter your energies to the point of not accomplishing what you have set up for yourself. The thing with Pisces is a lack of clarity due to the openness of this sign. For those born as a Pisces, it is difficult to know where you end and others begin. Other peoples issues and needs can become their problem if they aren’t careful.

The planet Mercury is also in the sign of Pisces now, and is conjunct Saturn in Pisces. This union offers thinking that is serious and deep, and you will rarely offer an opinion on any matter until you have thoroughly considered and studied it. At this time you have excellent powers of concentration and can enjoy studying or thinking deeply in solitude. You’ll have an aptitude for research or doing mental work which requires precise, organized thinking, attention to detail, and a methodical approach. This conjunction makes you more conservative and something of a skeptic, and you may be narrow-minded and closed to new ideas, especially if there is no concrete proof or scientific verification of them. Socially, you may feel rather reserved, uncommunicative, and uncomfortable with light, frivolous conversation.

Use your mind, body and Spirit to come to terms with how to set up your future for yourself, and take the time to do it thoroughly. The new Solar year is almost upon us, with the Vernal Equinox on March 20th when the Sun enters Aries. Let go of what no longer serves you, the past, and process these lessons rather than bring them into the New Year!

Full Moon in Leo 2025

On February 12th at 5:53 AM PST the Sun opposes the Moon at 24 degrees; the signs are Aquarius Sun and Leo Moon. This is the culmination of all that was hoped for when the Moon was new in Leo, on August 4th, 2024.

Leo is all about love, relationships, and self expression. Leo the Lion is the king of the jungle, and likewise Leo rules their domain. The energy is strong, regal, with a sense of authority, usually well deserved. Or so they think:) Leos are the heart of the zodiac, and can be very loving and generous.

Leo is the second fixed sign of the zodiac, being the second month of the summer season. It is when it‘s hot, really summer, solid and sure. Leo is the second fire sign of the zodiac, full of fury and initiative. Leo‘s energy is very creative, ardent in love, full of drama and uninhibited behavior at its best. It can be over the top, when too bold and pushy. At its worst, Leo‘s energy can be fickle, selfish, and touchy. At its best, shining bright like the Sun in everything they do.

Leo is ruled by the Sun, the center and source of our solar system. That is the demeanor of a Leo, the center and source of their environment. With this seat comes the entitlement of authority and kingly duties. With the misuse of this seat comes abuse of power and authority. The Lion is Leo‘s symbol. The Lion and the Lioness are very similar to the king and queen of the savanna. They hold court with their pride; they rule fiercely and protect theirs until their death. Leo energy inspires respect and admiration.

On this Full Moon, the Moon opposes Mercury at 26 degrees Aquarius, and squares Uranus at 23 degrees Taurus. When Mercury opposes the Moon, you are not interested in subjects that are wholly abstract or technical. There must be a personal, human element to evoke your interest. Interested in people and their inner motivations, feelings, personal lives, and experiences, you’ll feel like listening to others and to talk about their lives, dreams, desires - the things that are personally meaningful to them. You’ll have a particular interest in the past, and will be concerned either with personal history (childhood and early family experiences, genealogy, etc.) or with the roots and origins of societies (archeology, mythology, history, etc) at this time.

The Sun in Aquarius and the Moon in Leo have a T-Square from Uranus. This planet of sudden change and awakening is appropriate for the times we are living in. Impulsive, restless, and spontaneous, your life is apt to be somewhat unstable and full of sudden changes now. You are extremely independent and crave excitement during this period; adventure, freedom, and discovery. Emotional freedom is very important to you, and with this fiery Full Moon this can make for instability. The key to the T-Square is always the planet or luminary that squares two opposite planets or luminaries. So on this occasion we look to Uranus in Taurus. Uranus is a “destabilizer”, and Taurus is all about money, possessions, our resources and how we feel about ourself. These three fixed signs, Aquarius, Taurus and Leo, are very stubborn. But change is upon us, and we all need to know careful planning and downsizing on our spending may be the way to proceed.

Instead of any dependency on others to care for us financially, it is time to grab the golden ring and put forth the effort to become independent. This can happen when we take steps to plant a fruit and vegetable garden, and store goods for the future. Maybe you live in an area where solar panels can get you through the year without having to pay for electricity. Storing water in rain barrels for future needs. The list goes on and on to our own self reliance and the freedom it brings us.

So, think outside the box, see where you can be more frugal and actually put some money aside. Be generous to others with what you have to share, and look toward the future with high hopes of our world becoming more compassionate and loving towards each other. Be part of the change.

New Moon in Aquarius 2025

On January 29th at 4:35 AM PST the Sun and Moon align at 9 degrees Aquarius 51 minutes. This New Moon is a grand opportunity for all of us, as this is the sign of humanity and change.

It is always the time to clear the decks of old plans and projects that have either come to their completion, or discarded, when we have a New Moon. Energetically we all are set up for new beginnings and plans for our lives. The blessing with this energy is best described by the old saying, “all for one and one for all.” Aquarius is a Fixed Air sign; determined and rooted in their beliefs and ability to understand the bigger picture. This is the sign of the professor, the teacher with great experience through a life of hard knocks. Aquarians are one of the people, concerned with others welfare and improvement.

So with this double Aquarian energy, the Sun and Moon, a course can be set to see how each of us can be of assistance in our world. This is the sign of friends, associates and groups we belong to that share our own sentiments. Now is the time to find out where we can join forces somehow with others, and follow our conscience when it tells us where help is needed. Uranus, the planetary ruler, is the planet of change and transformation usually through a sudden or surprising event that catapults one into seeing life differently.

These luminaries share the spotlight with a conjunction to Mercury at 2 degrees Aquarius, and a trine to Jupiter at 11 degrees Gemini. Mercury the messenger opens our minds to the possibilities we can achieve if we step through fear's door. It is a broad minded energy that sees connections that can easily slip by without this focus. Interested in the inner motivations, feelings, personal life, and problems of others, you’ll be a sympathetic listener. You will also love to discuss (endlessly!) your own experiences and feelings:)

Jupiter in Gemini is naturally interested in all subjects, with quick moving ideas passing through minds if we can catch them! I suggest keeping a pad and pen available to jot down ideas as they arrive, they can be fleeting and profound so don’t lose them. When Jupiter trines these luminaries, we feel self-confidence and inner harmony that attracts success and benefits us in an almost magical way. Your optimism and cheerful generosity will also win you many allies and successes. Now you may feel willing to overlook others' mistakes, forget the past, and begin again on a positive note.

Meanwhile, Venus in Pisces, and Mars in Cancer are in a wonderful trine to each other, both in Water signs. This helps us all to be most caring, compassionate and available to those in need. Love for each other, unconditionally understanding each other’s motivations and actions, brings about an objective take on whether to speak or not. Sometimes we just have to accept others as they are, without pressuring them to change. But now, life brings these changes whether we are ready or not, and our job is to react with wisdom and discernment.

Try really listening to those you share your life and time with. Hidden between the lines is the truth, and you know what they say? The truth will set you free!
