Or how to let compassion and service shine!

On September 10th, 09:59 UTC (adapt to your timezone accordingly), the Moon will be at 17° of Pisces, opposing the Sun at 17° of Virgo. Both signs enjoy being of help or service and this Full Moon shines bright on matters of spiritual health and empathy. This culmination point brings its basket of emotions and dreams and could very well make us want to shift realities or bathe in nostalgia. It’s essential at this time to stay grounded (shower, self-care and all that jazz) if we want to make the most of our imagination or visions!

Full Moons are very often described as intense and emotional and this particular one is no exception. Pisces rules liminal spaces, heavenly matters, deep emotions, spirituality, transcendence, escapism and universal consciousness (among other topics). A Full Moon in the mix gives you a whimsical and almost intoxicating energy.

This weekend, more than ever, get a tarot reading, use your intuition in daily tasks, write, get creative, sleep more than usual if you need it – these enchanting moments will be very insightful for they connect you to a well of universal awareness! Light bulb moments or missing pieces of your life’s puzzle could magically appear in your reality.

In which areas of your life will the Full Moon shine? Take a look at your Sun, Moon and Rising signs to get some insight. General piece of advice: be kind.

• Aries: What happens in the shadows? You may feel a bit unclear or foggy, please don’t rush, this is a time for observation more than movement. Deep feelings could emerge, be kind to yourself and rest. Action doesn’t always bring answers, sit, meditate and be present. A little TLC goes a long way.

• Taurus: Friends and social circles are highlighted for you. You may meet people or have new ideas that are quite different from your habitual self. Explore these uncharted territories with an open-mind! Go slow but wish for progress and lead with your heart. Newness brings the gift of creativity. Your artistic soul is ignited again.

• Gemini: Your career sector is in the spotlight. What do you really want to do? What dreams have you put aside for too long? How do you want to be seen? Are you satisfied with your public status? This Full Moon asks you to dream a new public image and manifest it in your reality. If you can feel it, you can do it.

• Cancer: Philosophical questions are in order with this Full Moon! Which higher beliefs or ideas do you want to explore? It’s time to go on an intellectual adventure outside your comfort zone and traditional perceptions. You may find gems on the way. Don’t rush mental processes but dare to be bold! Fresh perspectives open and it feels exciting.

• Leo: Close relationships and intimacy are on centre stage this weekend. The way you interact with your other half could change drastically. It is safe to be compassionate and to listen to the needs of the ones around you. Shared resources could improve with creative ideas or solutions! More heart, less pride. Be authentic, it will help in the long run.

• Virgo: What about less practicality and more dreaminess in your relationships or partnerships? This Full Moon in Pisces invites you to feel more than you analyze. Let intuition be your guide, you won’t be disappointed. Release control, relax and enjoy reconnecting with your partners through imagination.

• Libra: What brings you a sense of fulfillment at work or in your daily habits? Is everything pleasing and/or rewarding? If you have some tedious tasks to complete, do the work and be practical. If questions about your well-being and work/life balance arise, be honest and let your heart speak. It knows best. Be pragmatic in your actions and introspective in your analysis.

• Scorpio: Fun and romance are your birthrights and if life has been hectic or full of chores lately, this Full Moon invites you to reconnect with your inner child: play, dream, fall in love with you and your projects and have a try with any creative endeavour. How can you diffuse more joy into your life? What a great day it can be when you allow yourself to be and live!

• Sagittarius: Home is where your heart is. It may sound corny but this Full Moon strongly highlights your home, your lineage, your relationships with or as a mother or daughter. Where do you belong, where is your happy place? Where and with whom do you feel the most comfortable? This weekend, connect with your ancestors, cook your favourite meal and relax in your safe space. Being cosy in a cocoon is all you need.

• Capricorn: Even though you thrive in tangible, down to earth approaches, you have a very emotional side! Time to use it, get creative and infuse your conversations with imagination and artistry. Trust your intuition when it comes to communication. Listen to what people have to say and if you must answer, do it gently. Connect ideas with empathy and show your compassionate side, you won’t regret it.

• Aquarius: Material abundance, self-worth, personal finances are significant during this Full Moon. All that glitters in not gold and your idea of value takes a new shape with la luna in Pisces. Which parts of your soul have you forgotten? Reconnect with your humanitarian side and instinct and try a more creative and emotional approach to your material desires. Your worth is also in your heart, this weekend, feel things!

• Pisces: Time to shine like a diamond Pisces! This is your Full Moon and all your qualities are illuminated. Be yourself, dream, love, enjoy your spiritual side, dive deep in the great mystery of life and don’t apologize. It’s the perfect moment to deal with life in an empathetic and caring manner. Your intuition is heightened, you might experience synchronicities or even paranormal events. You may feel extra sensitive and perhaps exhausted, make sure you have some room to breathe and relax.

Love and compassion are necessities, not luxuries. Without them, humanity cannot survive.

Or how to declutter and get back on track!

As the Virgo season settles down deeply with this New Moon, several aspects that are essential to our well being emerge. New moons are always a good time to start afresh, get ready, do the work, think a project deeply and plan. This is especially true when the Moon is in Virgo, the sign of organisation, cleanliness and health among other things.

What does it mean practically?

Well, if the holidays (or Leo season!!) made you overindulge in all good things that life has to offer (hello cocktails, desserts and parties all night), this is the perfect time to readjust and get back to healthy habits! Your body and mind will thank you and it will help you deal with the ‘back-to-school/work/routine’ mood that’s just around the corner!

So, to make the most of this fantastic lunation, here are a few tips that will hopefully help you!

• Stay hydrated, water is so cleansing!
• Cut the crap out (quite literally, junk food, sodas, you know!) and try to eat healthy homemade meals and lots of fruits.
• Try as much as possible to swap coffee for herbal teas!
• Make a list of things you want to declutter or sort out, this is the right time!
• Gift your body a nice massage and/or implement a new skincare routine.
• Try to stretch your body, do some yoga or pilates to feel good and refreshed.
• Clean your place and smudge it, energetic reset couldn’t be better this weekend!
• Take a look at your finances and budget for the coming months.

Wishing you a very happy New Moon, new intentions and a clean slate ready to welcome the new you!
