New Moon in Pisces, February 27, 2006, at 7:31 PM EST, at 9°16'.

The New Moon is a time of rebirth—a time when we are given a chance to start fresh. The New Moon in the altruistic, receptive, and dreamy sign of Pisces will occur on February 27th, at 7:31 PM EST.

What does this mean for you? The New Moon in Pisces is a good time to commit to personal goals that express the positive energies of the sign of the Fish:

• take a leap of faith—believe in something that you always wanted to believe in, but were too afraid to put your trust in;
• accept imperfections in yourself and in others as a different kind of "perfection";
• start a creative, imaginative project;
• consciously put aside time for peaceful, rejuvenating activities—these can include yoga and meditation, but can be as simple as recognizing your need for "down time" on a regular basis;
• practice putting yourself into others' shoes, and let some things go (such as judgments, annoyances, and the like);
• revitalize yourself through experiences that require imagination, compassion, or that simply represent a "break" from the routine;
• connect or re-connect with a lover on a romantic level; share a dream.

This month's New Moon is conjunct electric Uranus, and square combative Mars, giving us the impetus and gumption to start something new. Emotions can build up very suddenly under this influence. New commitments and resolutions made now need to be unusual, nontraditional, and certainly not monotonous. It's time to make some solid yet realistic plans, and to set the stage for reaping the rewards from our new beginnings, as little or big as they may be, in approximately two weeks' time after the Full Moon occurs.

Release comes through humbling ourselves to the idea that things will work out. We do not need to be "on" all the time. Give yourself a break from daily pressures, and surrender yourself to the idea that "what will be, will be", at least for the time being.

One of Pisces' "lessons" is to release some of the anxiety that takes control of our everyday lives. So, for example, if someone is blocking your way in the grocery store, tell that person, "Take your time", and mean it! If that statement might be taken as sarcasm, don't say it out loud, but think it. You might "lose" 20 seconds of your time waiting for that person to move out of the way, but you will have saved yourself the stress and negativity that comes from allowing yourself to get annoyed and impatient. Same goes for drivers who take your turn at a stop sign. Let it go. Smile at the driver, instead of throwing your hand up in protest, or at the very least, smile to yourself. There is no need to get worked up. These are "little things" that, if practiced often enough, will actually condition you to understand and apply Pisces lessons in more substantial or far-reaching ways.

The New Moon occurs at 9 degrees and 16 minutes of Pisces (9°16'). Where is that position in your own natal chart? Look to the affairs of that house for a more personalized meaning of the New Moon. Read more about the New Moon in the houses.

This month's New Moon is conjunct Venus, the planet of love and grace, in dreamy Pisces. It trines and sextiles an opposition between Mars and Saturn. The Mars-Saturn opposition represents the warrior facing off against the taskmaster. The New Moon represents a form of romantic release from this face-off, and seems to emphasize the Pisces lesson of letting things go and slowing things down (taking a break). Mars opposition Saturn can represent frustration, as Mars wants to forge ahead, and Saturn says "no, not now". Release comes through humbling ourselves to the idea that things will work out. We do not need to be "on" all the time. Give yourself a break from daily pressures, and surrender yourself to the idea that "what will be, will be", at least for the time being.

Mercury will turn retrograde on March 19th. During Mercury's approximately three-week retrograde motion in Aries, it may not be the best of times to launch a new business or even a relationship, as problems with miscommunication are more probable. However, it is an excellent time for studying and reviewing, as Mercury, the planet of communication, is closer to the earth and closer to the heart. Is there something that has you stumped, or that you haven't taken the time to try to understand or learn? Now is the best time to tackle it.
