New Moon in Pisces - February 2012

The New Moon this month takes place in Pisces on February 22nd (21st in the US). New Moons are a great time to start something new (as the name suggests) or launch something. 

It is also a wonderful time to set your intentions or wishes for the month. Make a list of 5 or 10 intentions/wishes and go about putting them into action with the support of the New Moon behind you. Then check in at the Full Moon (when things come to fruition) and review where you are at. 

You can also review your progress at the New Moon as developments have taken form and you may of released some things that weren't working. So, how have you progressed since the last New Moon in Aquarius? Personally, it was a wonderful New Moon for me. I started this blog and it has gone from strength to strength and has been a great source of joy for me. I can't wait to see what I will do with the Pisces New Moon!

The New Moon this month will join the party in Pisces where Neptune, Chiron, Mercury, and the Sun are already waiting with their party hats on. If you haven't read my blog post about Neptune in Pisces yet and how that affects you, I highly recommend you do. That was a huge shift that only happens every 14 years! Here is the link for the post in the blog archive. 

Anyway, back to the man of the moment! Pisces is an artistic, sensitive, compassionate and imaginative sign so you can tap into this energy, 'plant' some seeds for the soul, and let it take you where you need to go.

Ways you can benefit from the new Moon in Pisces

• Start or launch a creative project
• Maybe you've always wanted to try something creative like a painting class? Sign up now!
• Create a meditation practice
• Activate any spiritual practice or healing
• Begin the process of forgiving someone (that someone could be yourself)
• Get in touch with and trust your intuition
• Retreat from daily life, or if you can, go on a retreat

The new Moon energy can last for a week or so but is strongest at the time of the new Moon and loses potency as time goes on so there's no time like the present!

Here is a quote to sum up this new Moon. Enjoy x

“The creative is the place where no one else has ever been. You have to leave the city of your comfort and go into the wilderness of your intuition. What you’ll discover will be wonderful. What you’ll discover is yourself.” — Alan Alda
