This month’s full moon, the Harvest Moon, will be transiting the emotional sign of Pisces. When the moon transits this intense water sign it may heighten emotions, sensitivities and create confusion. Depending on where Pisces sits in your birth chart will help in understanding how to work with the energy of this transit.
If you are a Pisces Sun, Moon or Rising or have prominent Pisces/Neptune placements in your birth-chart then this full moon may provoke Pisces’ disorganized and deeply emotional states. For others, it may create mental and emotional overwhelm; bringing up deep seated emotions or instilling doubt/confusion in particular areas of life. A great way we can all work with these energies is through Aromatherapy.
