Pisces New Moon, Venus in Aries, Saturn in Pisces 2023


Pisces New Moon happening on February 19th or 20th depending on where you are on the planet is being hyped as a pretty important new moon. For people who engage in more new age topics, Pisces new moon is an open portal allowing people to dive into an objective dream-like spiritual realm where new age stuff is one of the native tongues. But sometimes it gets too obvious, and cliche. Pisces new moon is a time of major spiritual awakening! 


Another spiritual awakening? We must really be deep in sleep if we need so many spiritual awakenings, huh? With this new moon in Pisces being hyped as a way to ‘blast open your third eye’ , despite that being a possibility for some people, in general, that seems like a lot of pressure to me. This new moon is quite lovely, with exalted Venus along for the ride, and Neptune the modern ruler still floating around in Pisces of course. Pisces is known for being one of the most spiritual, beautiful and boundless signs of the zodiac.


IS pisces new moon good for setting spiritual intentions? Yes

Is pisces new moon for attuning to your intuition and dreams? Yep definitely - probably one of the best. 

Is pisces new moon good for letting your imagination carry you to creative answers? absolutely, yes

How about opening your third eye? Sure, if you get the option, go for it. 


But if you don’t magically get a third eye opening, that’s ok. There is some major concurrent energy shifting just after this new moon, Venus enters Aries about the same time, and soon Saturn enters Pisces on March 7, and will be in the mystical water world energy for two years. I have heard it talked about like a total wet blanket, the person at the party who wants to follow all rules and regulations even when it is unnecessary, the narc who rats out the teenagers sneaking beers (or perhaps magic mushrooms) to the authorities. 


So enjoy Pisces now! You may hear - float in the sea of dreams, open up that eye, and awaken! And then what? Haha Saturn comes in and reality checks ya. 


And maybe I am being a wet saturnian blanket on this new moon, but to me, this Pisces new moon is more of an opening act for the ingress of Saturn. Not to be mean, but it is less ‘WOO’ and more ‘What can you Do’ 


To me, Saturn is not a wet blanket. Saturn is the discipline that makes meaning of the Piscean dreams and imaginative or creative experiences. Saturn brings them out of dream land and into what we can call standard reality. The one where life is being lived in the material realm. The dreams, the art, the imagination, the spirituality that can come back from the pisces sphere is one of the things that makes real life tolerable. 


My advice for this new moon is to actively spend some time letting your imagination go. Everybody wants something in life - that is what makes us human. Most of us really just want to be happy, and there are infinite definitions of what happiness is to each individual on earth. So Think through to an ideal reality for yourself. See yourself happy. See the path further down the line where you have everything you want in your life. Don’t limit yourself. Go wild - go Piscean wild. Get an image from the imaginary landscape now, then offer it to Saturn when it comes into Pisces in March. Keep that destination in mind, and maybe if you put in the hard work of Saturn, after the two years it is in Pisces, you will be much closer to that ideal image or plan, or project, or just plain happiness, whatever that looks like for you. Then you can look back, many steps closer to that dream vision you pulled from the imaginal realm, to the Pisces New Moon time of 2023.

Pluto through the Houses

Natal Pluto Placement through the houses: These are inspired by Steven Arroyo’s descriptions in his book, Keys to Transformation, and I have added my own interpretations as well. If you want to find your natal Pluto house placement, you will need to know your birth time to get an accurate ascendent starting point. I would be very interested in how you feel about the description of Pluto’s placement in your own life - if it resonates with you? Also look to the house where Pluto is finishing up in Capricorn to understand if these topics have been dominant since 2008. Look to the house where Pluto will be in Aquarius to have a heads up of what potential topics may be on the docket for transformation in your life next. Your feedback is welcome! Pluto in the first house: Over time, your sense of self must be totally transformed, pluto energy used creatively can express in powerful concentration, and a remarkable depth into life's deeper meanings. Potential to deeply understand, but may

The Word in the Waking World - Kali Yuga

Caliuga?  I woke up with that word repeating in my mind this morning, like a message on an old answering machine.  "Caliuga. Caliuga. Caliuga." I had no idea why this word had called, and could not remember what it even meant. Was it a yoga pose? I put the word into Google, our great collective hive mind, and at first Google asked, "Did you mean Caligula ?" ("Cruel and tyrannical Emperor Caligula ruled Ancient Rome through fear and terror. Rampaging through Rome committing murder, adultery and acts of debauchery, his reign came to an abrupt end when he was brutally assassinated after only four years.") No, Google. I mean Caliuga . The phonetic way I typed in the word, brought up another option (Sorry Caligula, maybe some other time).  Kali Yuga.  Yes, that is what I am hearing. Kali Yuga.  It is so familiar, but I cannot remember. What is it? According to Yogapedia (Yoga's baby with Wikipedia I believe), Kali Yuga is part of Hinduism and is the fourth
