Sun in Pisces brings the end of winter and the beginning of spring. I love winter, but as soon as spring starts showing signs of emerging, I can’t help but feel lighter. There is a sense of renewal, you cut your hair, you get a new outfit, you enjoy the beautiful sights and smells of blooming flowers, and it fills you with joy and hope.

This Friday I had my first yoga class with no face mask. It has been eight months. I could finally breath wholeheartedly during the class. It almost feels like the world immerges from two years of a long winter.

Russia’s attack on Ukraine casts a heavy shadow on all of this. It is heartbreaking. Having lived in Israel most of my life, I went through several wars in my lifetime. My heart is with the Ukrainian people, as well as with the Russian people who do not want this war.

Pisces is the sign of peace, the sign of compassion towards all living beings. Pisceans want to help others, help the world. They are not just here for their own success or achievements; they are in service even when they don’t intend to be. This is because Pisceans are so sensitive to everything that happens around them; to the energies of others, to the air they breathe and the food they eat. They need the world to be at peace, because if it does not, they absorb the toxicity of war.

On Wednesday, March 2, there will be a new moon in Pisces. This is a wonderful opportunity to seat for mediation and imagine peace. Pisceans know the power of imagination and how to use it. If we all send blessings to the people of Ukraine and Russia, if we all imagine they are all safe and protected, we can make a difference. Pisces is the sign that understands the mysteries of this world. It is the sign of faith. I have faith that the world is a kind world. There are bad forces, there will always be. It is up to us to raise awareness and consciousness, to bring peace to the world, with every action we do, to act with kindness.

What else happens this week:

On Sunday and Monday, February 27 and 28, the moon is in Aquarius. Pisces and Aquarius are both transpersonal signs, they are both here to be in service to humanity. These are great days for big questions; why are we here? Why are there still wars? What can we do to make this world a peaceful, safer place for all?

Wednesday March 2, the sun enters a conjunction with Neptune. This will enhance Pisces influences. You should feel more connected to spiritual and mystical forces, filled with compassion and desire to help others. If this Piscean energy is not very familiar to you,  you might also feel some sense of confusion, or a lack of drive. It might be a good time to take things easy before we enter the fiery sign of Aries.

Thursday March 3, the moon enters Aries, and will stay there till Saturday March 5. This will give you some healthy fire. Pisces can be dreamers, their creative visions for the world can remain in the realm of imagination. Moon in Aries can give you the power to initiate and make things happen.

Peace & Love,

Yael
