Astrology Ahead: Daily aspects for Sept. 15 to Sept. 21

Dear Friend and Reader:

Today is the Full Moon in Pisces [please see earlier article here]. It’s the Full Moon in the last sign of the zodiac. Brits sometimes refer to Pisces as a cosmic dustbin, which is to say that everything unresolved, every question unanswered, every feeling that is unacknowledged, ends up in this sign. The strange thing about Pisces is how dualistic it can be; that is, it can possess emotions that go in two directions, like those fish in the images you see of this sign. It is similar to Gemini, but it’s emotionally deep, and the two aspects of its nature have a closer relationship than those suggested by Gemini; there is the cord connecting the fish. Opposites are related. They work together and support one another. This would include, to the chagrin of many, pleasure and pain. Hey, just ask any Pisces.

Add this to the Full Moon and you get a lot of polarity. The Full Moon is an opposition; two planets face to face at 180 degrees to one another. In other words, the Sun, the Earth and the Moon are in a straight line, with the Earth in between. This can make people, situations, emotions and needs feel more exaggerated than they really are. Do your best to keep an inner eye on your mental and emotional state, and at least don’t be surprised if you’re feeling things more powerfully or poignantly than you might normally.

I suggest you remember what’s irritating you. It could be an exaggeration, and it could be something old, something forgotten, or something with a different name than you’re calling it — and it could be asking for your attention.
