Let it Be - New Moon in Pisces

The wind-down towards a New Moon usually sees me cleaning the house. I naturally tend to put things in order, cleaning the slate for the new lunation. Usually I'm cleaning (and maybe I'll get to that if it flows)--but this New Moon is in Pisces.

Pisces is the opposite of Virgo, which rules (striving for) order in the physical realm... so as of this writing, the house is still a total mess (fresh off the whirlwind of Aquarius season).

The subtle realm is where the cleansing is really at for this time.

For this New Moon, it's less about what you think you *should* be doing and more about what you *need* to be doing, which is a subtle distinction...

Maybe we think we *should* be cleaning, or doing a million different minute tasks, or acting like xyz, but what we need is some sacred alone time. Time to dream, feel, let our creativity blossom. Time to sit, even for just a minute, with no distractions. To create space.

Maybe what you think you should be doing is _____ but what you need is ______.

I mention alone time because the time we intentionally carve out for ourselves is sacred. Alone = all-one. Pisces is the sign of retreat, ruling monasteries, prisons, hospitals—the places we become still, the containers, the 'blank' spaces where the spirit moves.

Do some cleansing in the etheric realm. Make your physical space a sanctuary to your deepest needs; sanctuary meaning, not a place of endless dictums pertaining to rightness, but sanctuary meaning, a safe space for you to feel your feelings.

A space to commune with all that is. Messy, heartbreaking, whatever it is.

Let it be. Let it be.

These are the deep flowing waters, the endless ocean of the emotional-spiritual body. Its vastness. Where we swim through the complex depths of our human experience, seeing the devastating beauty, our suffering, our inter-connectedness, and the spaces between us.

The space between sleep and waking, where we relax and let go, and the dream world takes us where we need to be, shows us what we need to see.
