Moon into Pisces: Metamorphosis

Friday night through Monday morning

Completing an electrically charged transit through Aquarius, the Moon swims tonight into the calm, oceanic arms of Pisces, where her first meeting is with Chiron, the mentor and healer who understands our wounds.

In that understanding, Chiron does not shy away––he's the wounded healer who understands the remedy is within the wound. So, our movement into Pisces might feel like both a challenge and an embrace, confronted with where we've been hurt even as we're offered an opening to heal.

Saturday morning we take the next steps in transformation as the Pisces Moon forms flowing sextiles to alchemical Pluto and expansive Jupiter. Our metamorphosis begins as we retreat into a private space, for the sextile with Jupiter is the Moon's last classical aspect in Pisces, opening a long void-of-course period that lasts until the Moon enters Aries on Monday morning.

Within the void-of-course cocoon, changes are happening.

Late Saturday night, the Moon forms an inconjunct angle-of-adjustment with passionate Mars in Leo, and moves into a yod, also called a finger of Fate, with the Sun in Libra. The Sun and Mars, active energies in the chart, in the intensely creative signs of Libra and Leo, push the Moon to adjust, to embrace change, as she floats in her Piscean cocoon.

The yod is then following by inconjunct aspects with Mercury n late Libra. If we surrender to the process we put in motion at the Libran New Moon, nothing within us will remain quite the same. Meanwhile, creative, relational Venus moves into the shadowy, deep waters of Scorpio overnight Saturday, then moves into a trine with Chiron on Sunday night.

These transformations create a new birth, as the Moon bursts into Aries at 8:57am Monday morning, ready to take on the world. While we move with the Moon through Pisces, we dissolve, release, and reform.
