Daily Horoscope: Moon in Pisces, October 17, 2021

Moon in Pisces, Sunday, October 17, joins Neptune, the planetary ruler of this sensitive and spiritual water sign, enhancing your own sensitivity and intuition. Pisces and Neptune rule the 12th house of the dream state, meditation, retreat and healing, introspection, past lives, the connection to the collective consciousness, and other planes of existence. Together, the moon and Neptune form gentle sextile aspects to Pluto in Capricorn and Uranus in Venus ruled Taurus, as well as a quincunx aspect to the sun and Mars in Venus ruled relationship minded Libra, creating an interesting dynamic where the people, places, or situations you find yourself attracted to now may bear a striking resemblance to people, places, or situations from your past. This is not necessarily a bad thing if it evokes pleasant feelings, but the nostalgia and rosy glow brought by the melodramatic moon transit and Venusian aspects can distort reality to the point that you may not be seeing that person for who they really are now, or that a place or situation has become stagnant for you. You are also feeling the poignancy of the past, and what may be about to pass, more strongly now due to Mercury in Libra coming to the end of its retrograde journey on the 18th – and have you noticed the moon is waxing toward full? Use the introspection and healing offered by the Pisces moon today to prepare for the initiating assertiveness of Aries fire energy which arrives tomorrow as the moon enters Aries. The moon transiting Aries on Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday will place extra demands on your body, mind, and patience, culminating in the Full Moon on the 20th, before it enters the grounded earth sign of Taurus later in the day on Wednesday, so rest up and reflect today.
