Tonight’s New Moon in Pisces ♓️

We stand at the end and the beginning all at once.

Pisces the final sign of the zodiac is the energy of surrender, intuition, dreams and deep emotional release. This New Moon is not about rushing forward, it’s about softening, letting go and trusting what is dissolving. It is the final exhale before the great inhale of the new season and Spring Equinox 🌱🔥

This is the true energetic closing of the lunar year.

As we prepare to step into a new astrological year, we are being asked to shed the last layers -
old identities, lingering doubts, emotional weight and anything that no longer aligns with who we are becoming.

Tonight take a sacred pause.

✨ What this New Moon represents
• Completion and closure
• Deep emotional healing
• Heightened intuition and spiritual connection
• Surrendering control and trusting the unknown
• Preparing the soul for a bold new beginning

✨ Practices for tonight ✨
• Take a salt bath or shower to cleanse your energy
• Journal - what am I ready to release?
• Meditate or sit in stillness - listen to your inner voice
• Write intentions, but keep them feeling-based, soft rather than rigid
• Light a candle and consciously release what you’ve outgrown

✨ Crystals to work with
• Amethyst - for spiritual clarity and protection
• Aquamarine - for emotional flow and calm
• Moonstone - for intuition and new beginnings
• Clear Quartz - to amplify your intentions

✨ Affirmation for New Moon✨
I release with ease
I trust the unfolding
I am ready for my new beginning

This New Moon invites you to close the chapter with grace, so you can enter the new lunar year, & the energy of the Fire Horse, with clarity, courage and full-hearted momentum 🔥

Let tonight be gentle.
Let it be sacred.
Let it be your becoming.

This year’s St. Patrick’s Day was a truly lovely one ☘️☘️

We gathered as a family,the six of us for dinner with my sister, her husband and my dad, who is now living here in England. We shared a beautiful meal of beef and Guinness & creamy mash, followed by a very luscious Guinness chocolate cake with cream cheese frosting - delightful 😋

And yet today the 18th always brings me back to 2022.

While the world celebrated St Patrick’s Day on the 17th, I was in the throws of chemotherapy. I spent most of that day in bed after my treatment, completely drained. The fatigue as I remember was overwhelming, my scalp was sore as I was losing my hair and celebrating just wasn’t possible that day

But the 18th… the 18th became our St Patrick’s day that year

It was the day I collected my wig, made to match my natural hair by a truly talented hairdresser. I remember the deep sense of relief for the first time in a while, I felt & looked like myself again. Not just a cancer patient

That evening, the three of us had our own small St. Patrick’s Day at home. It wasn’t the big celebration we were used to but it was ours, and it meant everything at that time.

So today feels like a bridge between the then and the now.

From quiet resilience to joyful togetherness. From surviving to truly living.

If you’re going through cancer or facing something difficult right now, please remember it’s okay to have the hard days. Just hold on. Brighter days really do come 💚

I often feel overwhelmed with the myriad things I want to say on Mother’s Day. But I think this is the most important place to begin.

My love to all. Because all women mother. All of us.

Friday the 13th has long been painted as a day of bad luck and fear but this isn’t the original story. In many ancient traditions, 13 is a sacred number of the Divine Feminine. It reflects the natural rhythms of life. There is 13 lunar cycles in a year and the moon has always been deeply connected to feminine energy, intuition and creation. Before superstition the number 13 symbolized wisdom & renewal

Friday itself is also connected to the feminine. The day is named after the Norse goddess Freya, a goddess of love, beauty, fertility and magic. So when Friday and the sacred number 13 meet, it creates a day that many holistic and spiritual traditions see as a powerful alignment of feminine energy.

Today isn’t unlucky
It’s a reminder of the sacred rhythms of life.
A reminder of the Divine Feminine.
A reminder that what society taught us to fear may actually be something to honour.

So instead of fearing Friday the 13th welcome its energy.

May today bring you clarity, connection and a little extra magic. ✨

THE VIRGO BLOOD MOON ECLIPSE — MARCH 3, 2026 🩸🌑

This isn’t just a Full Moon.

It’s a karmic cleanse.

A South Node eclipse in Virgo —
and Virgo doesn’t destroy…
she purifies.

This is the release of old mental loops.
Old coping strategies.
Old standards that kept you anxious, overthinking, over-functioning.

Where have you been gripping too tightly?
Where has control replaced trust?

Under this Blood Moon, what drains you becomes obvious.
What’s misaligned feels unbearable.

Mercury retrograde in Pisces softens the mind —
so don’t react.
Reflect.

This is not about becoming more.
It’s about becoming clearer.

Cleaner thoughts.
Cleaner energy.
Cleaner boundaries.

Let it fall away.

Rest.
Hydrate.
Journal.
Observe what surfaces.

Eclipses remove what you’ve outgrown.

And this one?

It’s refining you.

🩸🌑

This torch can burn s**t down. Burn it to ash. To the ground. From the primeval Baba. The grandmothers’ grandmother. She is handing it to you. To me. To us.

Burn these stories to the ground.
Be a story breaker.
Burn the old stories.
these stories are not new.
Bluebird. Persephone. Every maiden sacrificing myth.

there are a lot of people in power
who do evil things

there are a lot of old stories running the show.

keep naming them
Hold space for grief and fury
and keep remembering this isn’t new

The kingdom is waking. From 100-year-old sleep. From a 1000-year-old sleep. From a way too fu***ng long sleep.

The old story is breaking. become a story breaker with me. We need new stories to move into when old stories break. cultural transformation happens through story-shift. The dominant narrative is fracturing right now

Take the torch. Burn it down. Burn the old stories down. Set them on fire. Set them a blaze. Put them in your novena and burn it. It is in the collective psyche. The old story is fracturing. It is go time. Let’s do this.

be a story breaker. And a story re-maker.

THE VIRGO BLOOD MOON ECLIPSE. MARCH 3RD 2026. 🌑🩸
The Final Chapter. The Purge. The Reckoning.

This is not just a Full Moon.

This is a South Node Blood Moon Eclipse in Virgo. The last in a triad that began in March 2025.

This is the closing credits of a karmic storyline and you will feel it.

Eclipses do not ask politely.
They remove. They reveal. They accelerate.

But this one?

This one purifies.

Virgo. The Sacred Refiner.

Virgo is not about perfection.

Virgo is about discernment.

Under this Blood Moon, the light exposes
Where you overanalyse.
Where you micromanage.
Where anxiety has disguised itself as control.
Where your nervous system has been running your life.

This is South Node territory.

Old habits.
Old coping strategies.
Old mental loops.
Old health patterns.
Old martyr roles.

They rise now to be released.

This eclipse is not about becoming more.

It is about becoming cleaner.

Cleaner in thought.
Cleaner in body.
Cleaner in energetic boundaries.

What is draining you will become obvious.

What is misaligned will feel intolerable.

Mercury Retrograde in Pisces. The Mind Dissolves.

Virgo’s ruler, Mercury, is retrograde in Pisces during this eclipse.

The mind is not sharp right now.
It is porous.

Facts blur.
Old memories surface.
Dreams intensify.
The unconscious speaks.

You are being asked to reflect, not react.

If conversations feel confusing, wait.
If decisions feel foggy, pause.

Truth will surface but not through force.

Through surrender.

This is not a time to argue your case.
It is a time to listen to your deeper knowing.

The T-Square & Black Moon Lilith.
The Narrative Break.

This eclipse forms a T-square with Black Moon Lilith in Sagittarius.

This is where it gets interesting.

Sagittarius rules belief systems.
Media.
Philosophy.
The stories we tell ourselves.

Virgo demands evidence.
Sagittarius demands meaning.

Where have you swallowed a narrative that isn’t yours?

Where have you believed something about yourself that was born from shame, trauma, or conditioning?

The “empty leg” of this T-square is Gemini.

Gemini rules the mind and information.

You are being asked to question EVERYTHING.

Not from paranoia.

From sovereignty.

Nessus & Ancestral Patterns.

Mercury retrograde is conjunct Nessus.

Nessus is ancestral shadow.

It speaks of inherited trauma.
Abuse dynamics.
Silence around pain.
Patterns that pass through bloodlines unnoticed.

This eclipse does not skim the surface.

It goes into the psychological basement.

You may suddenly see,
Why you tolerate what you tolerate.
Why you shrink in certain dynamics.
Why your body reacts before your mind does.

This is ancestral programming surfacing to be cleared.

Not dramatically.

Consciously.

You are not here to drag lineage pain forward.

You are here to transmute it.

Pallas Athena. Strategic Wisdom.

Pallas is active here too.

This is not chaos energy.

This is strategic spiritual warfare, the intelligent kind.

Not fighting.
Not proving.
Not reacting.

Observing.
Researching.
Responding with precision.

Virgo + Pallas says:

Be discerning with your time.
Be surgical with your energy.
Choose your battles wisely.

Do not waste your life force.

North Node in Pisces.
The Surrender Axis.

Opposite this Virgo South Node eclipse sits the North Node in Pisces.

Control versus trust.

Planning versus faith.

Perfection versus compassion.

You cannot think your way through this one.

You must feel your way through it.

Let go of the impossible standards.

Release the critic.

Forgive yourself for what you did not know.

When you stop gripping, something higher moves in.

The Blood Moon Moment.

Before sunrise.

The Moon disappears.

For 58 minutes and 19 seconds, she will glow deep copper red.

Totality.

This is the symbolic death phase.

And death, in astrology, means transformation.

Something is ending.

A mental identity.
A habit.
A dynamic.
A health pattern.
A storyline.

This particular Virgo–Pisces eclipse axis will not repeat in this form for nearly two decades.

This is a karmic clean out.

What To Do.

Do not manifest.

Do not force intentions.

Eclipses remove. They do not build.

Instead:
Rest.
Journal.
Detox gently.
Clean your space.
Observe your triggers.
Watch your dreams.

Virgo rules the body, hydrate, nourish, simplify.

Pisces rules spirit, pray, meditate, surrender.

And above all, do not criticise yourself through the purge.

Compassion is the medicine here.

This is initiation energy.

Saturn and Neptune hovering at zero degrees Aries speak of a new consciousness forming.

But first?

The system must clear.

You are not a victim of this eclipse.

You are a participant.

You chose to be here at this moment in history.

So I ask you?

Will you release what is outdated?

Will you question the narratives?

Will you purify the mind?

Will you trust the unseen?

The Moon will disappear.

But you will not.

You are being refined.
