3rd Qtr Moon, 17 June 2017, Pisces

Exact time & zodiac degree of this Moon | Understanding Quarter Moons |

Just like sun spots magnetically looping from the sun, at this 3rd Quarter Moon in Pisces the Nodes are highly energised. The Nodes however are not visible; they are mathematical arcs. They symbolise the magnetic underpinnings of destiny and how life unhooks us from some pursuits and hooks us into others. At this 3rd qtr Moon, the Nodes align to both the Sun and the Moon in various dynamic formations. Like magnetic arches looping outwards, the Nodes act like lassos pulling us away from some directions and propelling us toward others.

Venus is in cowgirl-mode riding with the Nodes. She strongly aligns with Black Moon Lilith at this 3rd qtr moon and has more wisdom to her than Mars right now. She’s had enough of him heading off to the saloon each night for his wining and dining, forgetting about the practical things at home and avoiding intimacy. She gets on board with the Nodes, riding with the wind to get Mars back on track. She’d much rather be at home in a bubble bath with him, but she knows she’s got to snap him out of his automated behaviour first. How is your own inner masculine feeling at this time? Are you racing around like a rat on a wheel, feeling frustrated and needing to stop?

Saturn squares this 3rd qtr Moon in Pisces adding to the feeling that life’s practicalities need our attention before things get behind and out of control. The Moon in Pisces helps highlight what has become messy or chaotic in our days. It’s a Moon to flow with emotions and to listen to your ‘inner Venus’… your inner feminine side, your body, your heart, your dreams, your emotions. Taking some time to attend to your emotional inner home will help you find your true power. Just as cowgirls put a finger to the wind to get a sense of which direction it’s blowing, caring for your feminine side will help you intuit the best ways to be on track and to ride with the wind.
