Moon In Gemini

Special short for the Spring Equinox

Ostara marks the Spring Equinox.Day and night stand in balance. Light and dark share the sky in equal measure.But this balance is not static.It is a tipping point.After this day, the light begins to win.

Today we are sitting with the New Moon in Pisces, a lunation that occurs at the final waters of the zodiac, where endings and beginnings blur together.

We are moving from the final waters of Pisces into the first fire of Aries. The zodiac itself is turning over. The astrological year begins again.

Astrology is often introduced through the twelve signs of the zodiac. Aries. Taurus. Gemini. And, so on. But, those twelve signs are only the outer layer of the system.Astrology is nested. Fractal. Precise. Every sign contains degrees. Every degree contains nuance. Every nuance contains a story.Today we’re exploring two systems that reveal those hidden layers.

This week carries a strong emotional and intuitive current.Water dominates the sky again — Pisces and Cancer both activated — and when water signs are this involved, we are working with memory, instinct, and the quieter layers of perception.

This is a threshold week.We begin in water — saturated, intuitive, permeable.And we end in fire — clarified, activated, defined.

On March 3rd at 6:37 in the morning, Eastern Time, the Moon reaches fullness in Virgo — and it is a Lunar Eclipse.It happens at dawn.

At 1:48 in the morning, Eastern Time, on February 26th, Mercury stations retrograde in Pisces.The hour matters.This happens in the dark.

When most people first encounter astrology, they learn their Sun sign. Later, they discover their Moon. And eventually they meet their Ascendant.The Ascendant is not louder than the Sun. It is not deeper than the Moon. But it is the place where your life begins
