The moon in Pisces opposes Venus this morning, and our minds and hearts will be sharp and moving quickly. We’ll have an opportunity to heal through socialization and casual conversation.
However, Mercury’s retrograde, which begins today, can throw a wrench into these healing vibes if we forget to be good listeners. Remember that social interactions should be about giving and receiving. After you’ve said your piece, be sure to stick around and listen to the people you encounter today. You’ll need to be discerning when it comes to your conversations. Make sure you don’t end up in the role of therapist for someone who lays all their problems on you then bails before you have a chance to talk about yours.
The energy lightens up a bit in the afternoon, giving you a chance to mentally engage with the things you find interesting. Do some light research or reading if you have some free time.
As we head into the evening, try to surround yourself with people who lift you up. Communication will be easy, and it can help you alleviate stress. When the moon is in Pisces, mental stimulation can make it hard to fall asleep, so stay away from screens for an hour before bedtime, and enjoy a cup of herbal tea to help you unwind before heading off to dreamland.
Tomorrow’s Pisces Full Moon (2:58 AM PDT 17° Pisces/Virgo) will slowly begin to chip away at our patience with the failings or weakness of others. When we realize that we can’t necessarily rely on others to guide us, we may pull back in order to reassess our overall direction. We may have had some sense that we were just about to gain a clear view — see clearly where we are heading. Unfortunately, if we have been relying on a breakthrough, we will be disappointed. Rather, we begin to see here that there is, in fact, another round of reorganization that is required.

DAILY ORACLE
55 | Snake Spirit | Time to heal.
No matter how much you may have lost, or how you have been disappointed, you are called by Snake Spirit to shed the past and practice radical self-acceptance now.
Only by forgiving yourself can you move on, regardless of whether anyone else is ready for healing. When your tender new skin first becomes exposed, you may feel uncomfortable; love yourself and remain vulnerable anyway.
You have been weak, but now you are becoming strong and developing wisdom, and you will do better in the future.
Snake Spirit reminds you that hearts can be so easily wounded; apologies and amends go a long way. Self-forgiveness for your role in what happened can help you heal.
Remember, it is the one who has been wounded who often has the greatest power to help others heal.

9/10/2022, FULL MOON IN PISCES (HARVEST MOON): Moon in Pisces has the greatest sensitivity and perceptiveness of surroundings. You can experience feelings of insecurity, be passive and only wait and see what happens in your life. If you engage in creative or spiritual search, you will benefit from great imagination of Pisces.
9/17/2022, LAST QUARTER MOON IN GEMINI/CANCER: Moon in Gemini manifests itself by the need for changes and spontaneity. Safety lies in thinking about your feelings and sharing them with others. You can be more talkative and speak with ease these days. You might have a better ability to keep a cool head, but beware, cold heart can discourage others. Harmony of thinking and feeling is important.
Moon in Cancer brings your feeling of safety related to your home, family and related activities such as cooking and gardening. You may be prone to emotional fluctuations; you should learn to forgive and forget in order to avoid depression from thinking too much about things. Your perception of the world can be very subjective; try to create a certain distance without being bitter. Due to your rich emotional manifestation you can create a real sense of belonging in the world.
9/25/2022, NEW MOON IN VIRGO: You might have a strong need for balance and harmony now. You probably desire to keep things nice rather than venturing into fundamental questions in order not to disturb the peace. You must learn to share your good and bad feelings. Do not be afraid to be who you really are, despite what is expected of you.
