Full Moon in Virgo|Gaining a holistic perspective

We are in the watery depths and transcendental realms of pisces season, and as the Full moon in Virgo culminates, we may be asked to put aside our induced dreamlike state, to really partake in a little bit of a psyche spring clean as Luna pushes us into a more mercurial and categorical stance.

The Moon is in the sign of the healer, Virgo, and is opposing both the Sun and Venus conjunction — this transit is very much marked by the capacity to be completely overcritical of what we see and furthermore what we feel. There may bring a nit-picky nature to the way in which we process information, pulling apart our current reality in not only the mental sense, but the physical sense too. It is a time we can either feel an immense at oneness with our situation, or we may feel completely overwhelmed and confused as we are in ever-changing waters, and the currents of life are rapidly taking us somewhere unbeknown.

Nothing is truly as it seems, and as the Moon in mercury tries to get a grip on reality, this trying to make sense of the nonsensical could really lead to our own undoing. To ease any form of suffering, the advice to take the path of least resistance, and sometimes that means not reacting, not doing, until a firm sense of knowing fills our being.

Pisces is symbolically associated with the archetype of the two fish, swimming in different directions — this is a symbol of consciousness, and the infinitely dual nature of this existence, the balance that is omnipresent within these poles, yet is utterly illusive to most humans comprehension. There are multitudes of ways in which we can perceive or choose to perceive reality, this can be our blessing, and it can be a curse at times. Yet, there is no right or wrong, good or bad, all is the same and up to personal preference — all relies on the other to create its own pole or vision.

When we perceive this oneness within what might feel like a totally opposing force, without judgement, without fear, with full acceptance of what permeates into our sphere — this is when we can go beyond the mind, and meet with deep reverence and compassion in the heart.

When we feel a reaction towards something, it is only but a mirror for us to look deeper within ourselves to find those unresolved parts that cause distortions, this is where the healing medicine lays, to completely drop outward sources of projection and to fully take on board the way in which our reality is speaking to us, taking it on, working with it, and creating long and lasting change. Lean into what is causing the pain or suffering, and release cathartically through any means of self expression that feels fitting.

There may be pulls between wanting to completely merge with the other, as the Sun and Venus conjoin in the most compassionate and heartfelt manner with one another, which can be paradoxically counteracted with a deep seated desire to perfect, control and fully understand what is going on at this time — this knowing and control mechanism can ultimately end in our own self loathing. Pisces is all about a complete lack of control, and in this the grace that ensues when we fully surrender, which is one of the greatest lessons of this life.

When we truly look at ourselves however, we will see that we are all walking paradoxes in some expression, and this is where approaching ourselves, our realities, and others with humility is all we can do when certain life triggers present themselves. To love ourselves, and show ourselves love is the greatest task to master, as oftentimes we are the hardest on ourselves, and actually speak to ourselves like we would never even dare to speak to another.

The chart ruler for this lunation is Mercury, which is just out of retrograde, and is currently transiting the sign of Aquarius. This newfound forward momentum means that we are sure to be taking a much more objective perspective than we would usually take, after much recalibrating over these past weeks. This might be a time where we are inspired to really do things differently, or see things differently. We certainly have the capacity to peruse our vantage point right down from the microcosm, all the way out to the macrocosm, even to the universal view and really choose where we place ourselves. This will allow for a great perspective, yet we should be aware not to get too caught up in the finer details and let what doesn’t feel as though its in alignment run amok in our minds.

Mercury is conjunct Jupiter, the planet of expansion, so the energies are pushing for unparalleled expansion and release from the lower mind, into the higher mind, to really touch base with our innate wisdom and thirst for growth and transformation — this is a time to release any old mindsets, and to change with the times, and act with what is presenting itself. It is here we are able to refine our perspective, as we face present challenges in real time. We must be quick on our feet to keep up with the changes, because at this point in time, anything goes, any outcome is possible — the elevation however, unparalleled.

The moon is making a very powerful and harmonious trine to Uranus, so there is much assistance from the cosmos provoking sudden shifts in our alignment, as well as the capacity for multidimensional thought streams, which are of incredibly high intelligence to enter our fields. This can be an extremely liberating process, sparking intense momentum whilst poignantly moving the substratum within our depths and making necessary adjustments within our emotional matrix.

This is a time to really trust our intuition, allow our vision to open, receive, see and truly perceive, trusting our gut feelings about what is being communicated to us. We must not get too wrapped up in the mundane nuances of life. It’s best to turn our attention inwards, really cultivating our own internal sanctuary, so therefore we can connect to others in the highest octave of love possible once this transit is over, through our own inner purification. Heal through practical and pragmatic means, purify all the noise within that is not of service, and most importantly don’t be afraid to feel the truth permeating throughout your being, allow your reality to mutate with the currents, and just keep swimming.•🏊🏼‍♂️✨
