sun in pisces
18th February @ 7:53am San Francisco, 10:53am Toronto, 3:53 pm London; 19th February @ 2:53am Melbourne
Today the Sun transitions into the mutable water sign of Pisces. Over the next four weeks the Sun’s radiant energy will be filtered through a much gentler lens.
We may feel innately connected to our surroundings and more attuned to the subtleties of the world around us. Our environmental footprint may feel heavier than usual, so we tread more carefully.
We could feel less motivated to engage with the hustle and bustle of life and prefer to let the course of our day be less directed and more fluid and peaceful. Our interactions may call for a deeper level of understanding and compassion, without critique or judgement. It could be a time of heightened sensitivity where our ability to read a room before entering will help avoid uncomfortable situations.
Pisces intuitive nature encourages us to trust our gut instincts and pay attention to any red flags. We may experience a deep emotional connection with someone which goes beyond words. We could also have an intense aversion to anyone whose nature is intrusive or oppressive.
This watery sign is represented by two fish swimming in different directions which is symbolic of how easy it is for Pisces to either swim with the current or against it. Others can easily influence their choices, and they can be susceptible to acts of persuasion. It’s best to try and keep a clear head over the next few weeks. If you find yourself in a situation that is ambiguous or confusing, seek clarification or remove yourself to avoid being taken advantage of.
Not only does Pisces project kindness and vulnerability, they’re also able to recognise these qualities in others. The Piscean will notice the quiet or shy person slightly removed from the crowd and ask to sit by their side to keep them company. Someone may need your help during this time but may not have the courage to ask. You may need to tune into subtle cues or inferences to know when to offer assistance or support.
Whilst the Sun is in Pisces the veil between practicality and magic seems very thin. Our dream messaging will not seem so elusive, our visions will feel more insightful and our devotional practices more potent. Our unique artistry will have access to a much wider scope of insight and imaginative process to enhance our creative expression
For the next few weeks, we will be approaching the threshold of a new Astrological year.
This is a time to reconcile the events of the past twelve months:
· to release the weight we no longer wish to carry forward
· to let go of what we haven’t been able to do or change
· to understand the consequences of our decisions
· to accept what is or has been beyond our control
· to affirm where trust has been built and where it has fallen away
· to acknowledge our moments of sacrifice and surrender
· to find wisdom in this latest chapter of our life story.
For those born with their Sun in Pisces, this next month is when you will be celebrating your Solar Return as the Sun moves back to the exact degree it was when you were born. It’s your new year, a time to celebrate your birth and a time of renewal bringing with it a new burst of solar energy to revitalize your mind, body and spirit. This year it couldn’t be more poignant and much needed after carrying the weight of Saturn and Neptune in your sign for the past few years.
