Timing: The Moon occupies the sign of Pisces from Wednesday August 5th at 3:27am UTC to Friday August 7th at 2:04pm UTC.
Moon in Pisces: Peregrine. Without any essential dignity and not supported by a sectmate. The Mood continues to be somewhat unsteady, however, this is an excellent day for emotional exploration and self-care. Free-form journaling, walks that have no specific destination in mind, and other practices or rituals that help you to get in touch with your own emotional center will be greatly supported here. Visions may also come to you, as Pisces is by far the zoidion which is most overtly connected to the other side.
Triplicity and Quadruplicity: Bicorporeal Water. Bicorporeality indicates activities and moods which are a mean between the extremes of tropicality (cardinality) and fixedness, not as erratic and changing as the former, but not as solid and steady as the latter. The water element emphasizes the emotional and inner life, and people tend to prioritize their own inner states and unconsciousness patterns. The atmosphere takes a very reflective tone.
Moon’s ruler: The Moon forms a sextile her ruler Jupiter. She therefore can ground her significations into actuality, and the work and activities done during this period have greater potential to turn into something positive and longer lasting. This brings support from teachers and authority figures. emotional bouyancy will abound more so than usual, and the mood will be more optimistic than is generally the case with Mercury in virgo.
Aspects
Superior Trine to Mercury in Cancer. Communication will flow much more freely, both between yourself and others and between different aspects of yourself. The watery nature of this trine emphasizes emotions and the inner realm - use this as an opportunity to express yourself from your emotional core.
Superior Square to Venus in Gemini. The positive potential that comes from Venus is available, but it will require more work on your part for it to arrive. Helpful conversation, exploration with the fine arts, and friendship can all abound today so after some initial difficulty is worked through.
Inferior Sextile to Saturn in Capricorn. A touch of melancholy. You may find difficult experiences coming up that will thwart your agenda or sidetrack you, but you can transmute the difficult events or emotions that arise much more easily given the sextile. Whatever comes, it won’t be extraordinarily difficult.
Summary: If you have been looking for a good opportunity to rest, relax, and go inward, then this is your time to do so. The Moon receives support from the yin side of her ruler Jupiter to ensure that the mystical, spiritual dimensions both within and without can be explored successfully. You can do this with others, as the Mercury trine will greatly faciliate interpersonal communication. The natural charm and tact of venus is present, but it may take a little more work to access it. The fact that this is not a movable sign and the moon can see her ruler by whole sign guarantees that the work done during this period will take you far.
