Happy Pisces New Moon !

The new moon March 17, 2018, falls at 26º Pisces decan 3. This new moon March 2018 astrology shows us we are just about to regenerate into something new. For this reason, it is a very unstable time where everything feels like it’s in flux. We are on the verge of spring, but it not quite there yet!

Unstable weather patterns persist and we might see our poor daffodils and croci blanketed in snow. The square from the Moon to Mars brings in even more instability. Mercury is also slowing down to turn direction for Mercury Retrograde on March 22. This might not be the best time to make any life-changing decisions or commitments. Keep all options open.

New Moon conjunct Chiron means the crisis, anger or conflict resulting from this new moon will expose a very painful wound in your soul. It could be an event from your childhood like bullying, or a physical wound, illness or disability. It could be a broken heart that never healed or the death of a loved one. Your deepest wound could have damaged your self-esteem and lead to depression, feelings of victimization or and inferiority complex.

The wild mood-changes in this decan are bound to keep us on our toes. Because of fluctuating emotions, we might well find it hard to keep hold of relationships at this time or stick to any project. We are apt to lash out for no apparent reason, so this decan is typical of the temperament that is often described being “artistic ” Interestingly in my research, I actually found very few actual artists with their Moon in this decan, but there are certainly those who have a finger on the pulse of what is popular in the collective.

This decan is very sensitive to what its peers (or the public) perceive them to be. If they can’t be loved then Pisces decan 3 might go out of their way to be unpopular and delight in being controversial. Moon in Pisces 3 loves being the subject of gossip, and they seem to lap-up any attention, even if it is negative. Bad press doesn’t exist as long as this person is being talked about; So at this time, we will see many prominent people feeding off drama in the collective. The Moon here can be quite “bratty” also. Infantile rages can emerge due to unresolved childhood trauma.

At first glance, this New moon March 2018 astrology does not look easy, with some sacrifices having to be made. It also will feel volatile. Like Pegasus, we may want to reach for the stars, but the cosmic weather will feel too blustery to set sail. Patience and deferred gratification are called for. Rash decisions may end in an embarrassing fall from grace. Trusting in the justice of natural law will be a challenge, but there is a good chance that a savior will step in at the 11th hour and rectify any mistakes.

New Moon square Mars suggests that the crisis involves a challenge from an angry man, your competitors or enemies. Someone may try to assert their power over you, leading to ego conflicts. You may already be irritable and impatience, and likely to react to any provocation or threats with aggression.

This aspect can lead to a buildup of anger, resentment or sexual frustration. Such potentially destructive energies must be channeled constructively so they do not result in conflict, accidents, muscle pain or exhaustion. Exercise, masturbation or hard work will work so long as you don’t over extend yourself and strain something. It is not a position that pro-active Mars really likes, but there will be some action just in the nick of time. Kind of like bidding for an item on eBay. It is all about timing and sensing the mood of the players around you.
