Astrology for Friday, September 13, 2019 ~ Harvest Moon ~ Full Moon in Pisces

In addition to the Full Moon in Pisces today we have several other aspects occurring and flavoring the mix. Mercury and Venus conjoin in the final degree of Virgo giving us an appreciation for the finer things in life including the fine print. The Sun and Pluto make a trine giving an air or courage to the shadow work that lies before us. Mars and Neptune are preparing for a showdown tomorrow. But the big deal, the biggest deal is the Full Moon in Pisces.

Looking at the chart of the Full Moon awakens my compassion. It even makes my heart hurt. There are so many wrongs in our world. And yet we seem to only be able to do little things, make small contributions, instead of making the massive changes needed in order to create a more compassionate reality for everyone out there. That is the story of this full moon. What can I do, little me, to make a difference? The existential crisis that arises, the question of “Does it even matter?” is one you will feel if you are being triggered by this full moon. The answer must be answered within, but remember the spell:
As Above, So Below
As Within, So Without

If you decide it doesn’t matter, your energy resonates on a larger scale and contributes to the uncaring in our society. What happens inside of you is reflected on the outside, too, by those you meet and your life experience.

Even if we are helpless to make any sort of impact the desire to try, the desire to improve things, even just a little bit, is worth something. The Sabian Symbol for the Full Moon is “The Prophet Bringing Down The New Law From The Mountain.” This represents the spiritual laws by which we choose to live. What spiritual laws do you want to live by? How can faith play a role in bringing about the world in which you would be grateful and glad to live? Are you listening to the oracle that lives within you, in the form of your own intuition, your own conscience?

I am not a fan of letting others tell me what to do, and I don’t expect others like it any more than me. And this symbol carries that warning to avoid following blindly what someone else says is right. Use your heart, use your brain, use your gut in deciding for yourself what is “right” for you. I pray that solution is also “right” for all involved.
