I woke up this morning at the exact time of today’s Pisces Full Moon at 4:56am after a restful nights sleep and baby still sleeping. We both slept well, which is not surprising since we are both Pisces Moons. Our love of the deep, the mysterious, the spiritual, the imaginative, the realm of dreams, and the psychic are innate within us, all of which is enhanced with this Pisces Full Moon along with Neptune, the ruler of Pisces transiting right on top of our conjoined Moons.

This got me musing about Moon in Pisces energy, which besides what I mentioned above, also indicates a deep psychic connection to mother. I muse about how our emotional and psychic connection will develop over time, something which I know I will have to let ebb and flow as it needs to. I must be an example, a guide, and a teacher as her own inner High Priestess grows, yet not restrict her growth with artificial boundaries. She must learn to set and hold her own.

My psychic connection to my own mother was not a healthy one, nor was it an understood one until I was an adult and deeply diving into my own shadow work and psyche. Boundaries can be non-exsistant at times for an individual with a dominant Pisces in their natal chart, especially with those whom they are closest to. Understanding the Piscean dynamics has been an important part of my own journey and is now an important part of raising my Moon Baby.

These musings led to my musing on the actual word musing. To muse means to think, to ponder, to dream – so Pisces! The root of muse goes back to the PIE root *men- “to think,” which makes it cognate with our modern words: mind, mental, mantis (seer, prophet), -mancy (as in cartomancy, etc.), mania, mantra, memento, music, and reminiscence, to name a few. The deep pondering, being a seer, lost in psychic frenzy, memories, or spiritual prayer all beautifully describe the energy of Pisces.

And of course there is also the Muse, a goddess of inspiration. And so I hope my little musings here inspire you to connect with your inner goddess or a Moon goddess archetype and be inspired by your own inner musings under this Pisces Moon.
