Moon enters Pisces - nebulous, dreamy and ethereal. Spiritual inclinations and vivid imaginations. Copresent with Saturn & Neptune on a Saturday, our spiritual practices serve to keep us anchored in a constantly fluctuating and changeable world. Sticking to routines, incorporating prayer, disciplining Self and steering clear of maladaptive behaviors. Belief changes things, wanna change the world? Believe in yourself, merge with your higher Self. They’re waiting on you.

Happy lunar return Pisces moons.

Venus enters Aquarius; conjunct Pluto

Love of humanity, love of ideals, love as a lighthearted affair, love that pushes the boundaries. Strange, quirky, weird, a lil offset? Here for it. The planet of love and values enters the sign of the water bearer. Carrying the water, without drowning in it. Pouring the water, while keeping it G and being moderate. Cleaning the water and filtering the nonsense out of it. Water as emotions, water as the healing component. Venus immediately meets up with Pluto- there’s empowerment in vulnerability, there’s joy in being seen as an intense and peculiar living breathing human being. Ditch the power struggles and post up where you can just be. Do your thing. It’s okay for you to exist. Trust me.

Moon in Pisces, Neptune stationing direct. Pedicure? Pedicure.

Neptune stations direct in Pisces 27°

Knowing, doing & understanding the dream that we have for ourselves. Moving forward with the vision we have for the collective, step by step. Trading disillusionment for active imagination. Trading scandals for transcendence. Neptune begins its trek towards Aries while wrapping up its journey that began in 2011 in the Pisces house of our chart.

Over the top, exaggerated and blown out of proportion. No, you do not know everything but you know a lot and it’s not your responsibility to have all the answers anyway. Embrace the zoom out and the loose pieces, through trial and error the puzzle gets completed.

Learn to love the imperfect and all the lessons every mistake can teach you.

...No two Aquarians are the same. Individuals born under this sign often resolutely refuse to admit that they have anything in common with one another. Yet, if there’s one quality that threads through all Aquarians, it is the ability to stand out. To be wildly unpredictable, unusual and fascinating, whilst still remaining stoic, solid, and in a strange way, highly consistent. Being ruled by eclectic Uranus and structured Saturn creates what Aquarius is known for – their contradictory nature.

It's important for you to remember that true love and emotional security come from within.

I really like Astromatrix.

Especially when I'm stuck in brain fog mode and can't focus on a single thought.

I don't have the app, I just use it from my laptop. I don't even remember this particular feature being there last year. 🤷‍♀️

[neshatriumphs]

I don't like AstroMatrix addressing me in this manner.

I have found, and it becomes most evident around this time of year, when I am reflecting the most... People do not have the same relationship with trust that I do, and they also are not skilled in assessing other people's trust or lack of it.

There are people who have known me for years who still fail to grasp 1. How difficult it is to gain my trust. 2. How easy it is to lose it. 3. How impossible it is to get it back. 4. How natural it is for me to care less in situations where I do not trust them.

And, I think most people know that I don't rock with my family, aside from my siblings and a few cousins out of the dozens I have. I have two people who I consider my friends in real life and they know me best, but we're also distant. My ex, who we rarely talk, but I do value very much. And, I have a cat. These are basically my family.

My blood family I'm mostly estranged from, including my parents, who I cut off years ago. My ex husband is dead. My soul mate is dead. These are two different people. My mother is dying. I worked for 5 years in the childcare industry with displaced kids.

I don't struggle to disconnect from people. Disconnecting from people is quite easy. The times it's hard is at work when I've bonded with kids and have to part ways, but when that is a natural portion of your everyday life for years, letting go of other people (at least for me) became almost so easy that it is thoughtless. I will sometimes think of someone and at that moment remember - they mattered to me for a period. But, in the moment that they don't, I realize that they don't anymore.

And I typically have no urge or desire to reach out to them or reconnect with them. It was what it was and it is what it is, and some people, if we cross paths again and all is good, then all is good and we move on. Then some people, we had reasons we disconnected. Either naturally, accidentally, unconsciously, etc, but ones with a reason where my trust is gone, or my respect is gone, or I've decided to withdraw my love or support...

Sometimes, people are annoying and spending time with them takes energy I am too selfish to waste on them. Sometimes, we have a disagreement where they didn't exercise the fact that words that come out here to me, I get to now do with those whatever I see fit, and if they wanted them to only be handled in their own way, they should've kept them to their own selves. Sometimes you discover that you don't know each other, but what you've learned you don't intend to push to a deeper situation, or you learn that you should retreat to a more shallow place.

Oftentimes, that is where I communicate with others from. The shallow place. It's the place where I meet everyone, and at times, we get to a deeper place and continue there, and sometimes, we move to a deeper place, then wind up backing up back into the shallow place. I am not likely leaving it again with you. This is where people accidentally be having me fucked up. Because a lot of people will work to get back to the deep place, or still move around like we're in the deep place together, but if I went to the deep place with you and you moved in a way that rubbed me wrong, Idc where you go next, but I'm taking my ass right back to the shallow place.

I'll still speak, and wave, and entertain pleasantries. It ain't like I hate you, because if I did, you died in the deep place before I went back to the shallow place.

I have... a crowded shallow place. And I probably will back up even more, withdraw, isolate. People can't come with me there. I eventually return to the shallow place. Some people are gone. Some are still there. Some are still in the deep place. I didn't expect anybody to still be there, but grateful for when they are because, as we established in the beginning, its hard to get there. I'm not as grateful for the people in the shallow place. I don't expect them to be grateful for my return. It is what it is and it was what it was...

Sometimes, they think that they were waiting for me in the deep place.

Why did they not notice when I withdrew my trust? My respect? My love? What do they think actually occurred between us when I went back to shallow? Maybe I'm the one mistaking things. Maybe nothing happened at all and I imagined everything. But, when it's real in my mind, it's real in my ways. My relationship with trust won't let me work on that. I only do work for deepness. Any other time, I simply will not.

I'm not with my flesh and blood. I'm not with my "we've known each other our whole lives." I'm not with my shallow place. But, I don't hate them. Sometimes I dislike them, but that isn't a crime or a deal breaker. I can still be nice. Until I'm tired. But, it'll be fine. Because even then, we don't fw each other like that. So, everybody will be alright anyways.

I forgot my mother was dying. I don't know how others expect my connections to be presumable.

That's my ramble for today, I suppose.

¥•¥ Beautifully written transit update provided by AstroMatrix ⭐️😍😍😍❤️

My Aries Sun 10H and my Pluto in Sagittarius 5H

This is SO relevant right now for my current energy shift. I am transcending from my past behaviors and putting a stop to the loop of trauma.

Wild because this morning I had a disagreement with my partner and instead of resorting to my same coping mechanism of avoidance (stonewalling + withdrawal) I took a few deep breaths and calmly explained my position/feelings. As a Scorpio moon 4H it’s HARD for me to express my emotions.

Healing deep wounds and I’m actively learning to communicate my needs fears wants and desires to my partner. I have fear of my voice—in the past I would speak up and I would get shamed blamed criticized harshly etc. I learned to “shut down” to avoid conflicts.

Releasing this pattern that holds me back from my fullest potential of self ⭐️

I am SO ready for this new journey 😎😍🍃✍️⭐️❤️🙏🏻

Can someone from the astro community please tell me what it means to have an out of bounds planet? I have my moon, lilith and midheaven all out of bounds. Share your out of bounds placements too if you have any, I checked this out on AstroMatrix.

[coven-of-genesis]

hello, i just started reading about all of this and im so confused and overwhelmed with everything. So what should you recommend doing as a beginner and when can i start to cast spells and even learn about all of them and what sources do i use to learn?

thank you

Answering a Beginner Witch’s Question 🪽🤍

First of all—breathe. Feeling overwhelmed is so normal when you’re stepping into the world of witchcraft and spirituality. There’s so much info out there, and no single “right way” to do it. Here’s what I’d recommend as a soft and simple starting point:

1. You don’t need to know everything to begin.

You can start casting simple spells as soon as you feel intentional. A spell is really just focused energy—so even lighting a candle with purpose counts. You don’t need a full altar or all the tools yet.

2. Start small and build your practice.

Try:

• Journaling your intentions and goals

• Learning moon phases & what they mean

• Studying the correspondences of herbs, crystals, and colors

• Cleansing your space (smoke, sound, salt, etc.)

3. Good beginner sources:

Apps:

• Moonly – lunar phases, affirmations, and rituals

• AstroMatrix – astrology insights and transit tracking

• PlantNet or PictureThis – help you ID plants and herbs safely

• Witchy Discord servers, forums like Reddit’s r/witchcraft (just be mindful of misinformation)

• Tumblr tags like #beginnerwitch, #greenwitch, or #witchtips (look for creators who explain things with kindness and clarity)

• Blogs & creators who emphasize intuition and self-trust over gatekeeping

• Your own instincts (seriously—your path is personal)

4. When can you start?

Right now. Magic grows as you practice, learn, and evolve. Your path will become clearer the more you walk it.

Remember: There’s no rush, no exams, and no “wrong way” as long as you’re being respectful, ethical, and true to yourself.

You’ve got this.

I: The Magician

The Magician represents willpower in its purest form. They are an energetic craftsman and an artisan of the highest order. The Magician understands that any tool becomes magical when it is wielded with intention. This card represents the connecting force between the etheric and corporal realm. It is also a reminder not to misuse this power to humble or control those around us. A true magician practices their craft in order to improve their own life, and by extension, the lives of others.

The first card of the major arcana appears when it is time for you to set clear intentions in life. It’s time to put thought into action. This is an ideal time to create a crystal grid or a vision board. Use creative visualization, spellwork, or other tools that allow you to focus and consciously direct your energy. Call on the power of The Magician to begin manifesting the world you desire.

Being the bored, astrology enthusiast I am and having it come to my knowledge that it is Vi’s birthday today, I decided to try to find out her birth chart.

Now the way I approached this is that it is known that in the original LoL game she came with the Dec 19, 2012 update and in the game it’s reported for her to be in her 30s in the “current” time the game is set in. So I concluded to specify the age down to 30 and date back to 30 years prior for her date of birth (so Dec 19, 1982).

As for time and location, usually when it comes to game updates they’ll be released at 12AM exactly and Riot Games is based in Los Angeles so I’ll be going by PST/PT.

Therefore the official Birth Details on the chart are:

December 19th 1982, 12:00AM in Los Angeles, California. (Placidus House System was used)

And honestly I’d say this tracks more than the transits that were happening in 2012 around the same time. Lmk if you want me to overanalyse the fuck out of this birth chart.

Hello, Moon. I've read that you also focus on asteroid Pallas ^^

what is your interpretation of having Pluto in conjunction with Pallas in 7 degree orb? I know it is quite a large orb, but sites like astromatrix, astrotheme, time passage still considered this without adjusting or changing the orb. Thank you so much, Moon (⁠✿⁠ ⁠♡⁠‿⁠♡⁠)

Helloo ☺️ ~~~💗 Sure, here's a very concise and brief outline of your natal placement, and yeah I do agree that's a large orb. My interpretation will be general.

🕵️ Pluto conjunct Pallas 🕵️

- Pallas, a warrior, a strategist, gifted at discerning patterns.

• You have a knack for seeing hidden patterns. A deep, raw power with insight. You see through the facade, uncover things, solve problems, tear things down to rebuild them better, more fortified.

• Whatever you create or sound out in a room of brainstorming, you hit home with the emotional impact or shake things up by challenging the norms.

• You have an instinct to turn chaos into something BIG. You take setbacks as opportunities and strategise on moving ahead with whatever they got. You dig deep during a crises and emerge transformed by the pain.

• You pick on unspoken dynamics in a relationship, people's triggers, or the undercurrents in a room. You could be gifted at recognizing trends before it's obvious to others.

• Due to Pluto's influence this placement takes on a stubborn, authoritarian quality. You may find it hard to let go of your views, even in the face of opposition, you'll refuse to budge from your beliefs.

• Have a sort of a my way or the highway approach. A Sherlock Holmes meets the Lord of the Underworld Vibes. (Actually a more apt representation would be Daenerys Targaryen from GoT too.)

• Like for instance, if there's a family conflict, instead of mediating, they'll look for the unconscious dynamics— hidden motives, repressed emotions, past traumas that could be influencing the situation.

• They look for connections between unrelated events and dive into the deep, psychology drivers.
