The new Moon in Pisces invites us into the magic of infinite possibility. It also reminds us of a profound truth—we are energetic beings, connected to everything in the Universe. From the stars above to the deepest oceans, we share the same cosmic essence. Our dreams and visions exist in this vast field of potential, already alive within us. Our only job is to release the inner barriers keeping us from our highest vision.
When is the New Moon in Pisces?
The last new Moon of the zodiac year takes place on February 27th at 7:45 pm ET.
What the New Moon in Pisces Means for You
Pisces is the most spiritual sign of the zodiac, and her energy reminds us that we are spiritual beings in a human form. Symbolized by two fish swimming in opposite directions, Pisces embodies the vast and interconnected nature of the ocean. This water sign represents our connection to the collective unconscious and our deepest emotional waters. During this season, we’re invited to dive into our inner world and explore what lies beneath the surface.
During this new Moon in Pisces, simply be. Let go of the need to make things happen. Let yourself be guided toward your dreams through inspiration and inner wisdom. Like gentle waves washing over the shore, Pisces energy quiets the external noise so you can hear your soul’s guidance. This is the perfect moment to explore meditation. Take time to sit in stillness. Open yourself to receive without expectation. Experience yourself exactly as you are without trying to change anything. In this space of pure being, wisdom flows naturally through sudden insights, gut feelings, and knowings that light up your entire being.
Your intuition speaks clearly when you create space to listen. As you calm your mind’s constant chatter, inner wisdom rises like the morning sun—unmistakable and bright. Notice how your body responds emotionally throughout the day. When you feel triggered or reactive, return to your breath and the present moment. Think of yourself as the vast ocean—waves may rise and fall, but beneath the surface lies profound stillness. In this calm state, intuitive guidance flows freely.
The new Moon in Pisces invites you to dream bigger than ever before. Let your imagination soar beyond perceived limits. Pay attention when your mind says “impossible.” Notice where fear arises in your body as you envision your greatest dreams. Observe any feelings of unworthiness as you reflect on your intentions. The Universe responds to even your unconscious energy. If any part of you feels unworthy of your intentions, then you won’t allow yourself to manifest them. This Moon is all about allowing. Allow yourself to dream, to flow, and to receive what is already yours. You are the Universe and the Universe is you.
Connect deeply with your feelings during this new Moon. Write freely about what moves through your heart. Take slow, conscious breaths and ask yourself what these emotions reveal. Make exploring your inner landscape through feeling and understanding a daily practice. Your emotions carry profound wisdom. As you journey into your consciousness, you uncover the keys to manifesting your desires.
After visioning and dreaming, embrace trust and surrender. Your path may unfold in unexpected ways. Life works in brilliant and mysterious ways to bring your intentions to life. Hold your vision with unwavering faith while remaining open to how it manifests. Life flows more smoothly when we release rigid control and dance with what emerges. Hold the visions and allowt space for the unexpected and unimaginable. The Universe may have something greater in store for you than what you allow yourself to dream. Let your intuition guide your way.
This process asks you to trust life’s unfolding even when plans shift or challenges arise. Remember, you are infinitely connected to Universal wisdom. When you surrender to life’s flow, you align with your highest self, the part of you that knows far more than the conscious mind can grasp. Notice where you grip tightly to control. Where could you trust more deeply? How might releasing into the natural rhythm of the Universe serve your growth?
Through stillness, trust, and surrender, you align with the infinite flow of the Universe. Your visions are already real. Let them emerge through you as you open to receive.
Other Astrological Influences on the New Moon
With the Sun and Moon squaring Jupiter in Gemini during this new Moon in Pisces, we experience a powerful tension between our old stories and our expanding dreams. This aspect creates friction between what we’ve always told ourselves was possible and what our soul knows we can achieve. Jupiter wants us to expand beyond our perceived limits while Gemini helps us see new perspectives and possibilities. Yet our old narratives might resist this growth and create an internal push and pull. This tension isn’t here to hold us back. It’s here to show us exactly where we need to break free.
When we feel resistance to our biggest dreams, we’re actually feeling the edge of our comfort zone asking us to expand. This square aspect gives us the energy we need to push through these limitations. It’s like the Universe is creating the perfect amount of pressure needed to help us burst through our self-imposed boundaries. Take time with this energy to notice what stories come up when you dream big. These are ready to be released, making space for new possibilities to emerge.
You’re being called to expand in ways your mind might not understand yet, but your soul already knows the way. Trust the tension. It’s your catalyst for breakthrough.
We also have all planets moving direct this new Moon, a phenomena that will last only until March 1, when Venus stations retrograde in Aries. With all planets moving direct during this new Moon in Pisces, we’re experiencing a rare cosmic alignment that supercharges our manifestation potential.
Usually, when planets are retrograde, certain areas of life may feel delayed or require deep internal review before moving forward. Yet now, with every planet moving forward, we have clear cosmic channels supporting the flow of our intentions into reality. It’s as if the Universe has opened every green light on your path, allowing energy to move without resistance or delay. This direct motion creates a powerful forward momentum, helping your dreams materialize with remarkable speed.
This unique planetary setup asks us to be especially mindful and intentional with our netw Moon intentions, as they have extra power to manifest quickly. The Universe is ready to support bold action and rapid implementation of your visions. You might notice synchronicities appearing more frequently, opportunities arising unexpectedly, and a general sense of flow in areas that previously felt stuck. Rather than the usual gradual unfolding of manifestations, you may experience sudden breakthroughs and swift progress toward your goals.
It’s important to stay grounded and centered during this time of accelerated manifestation. While the energy supports rapid growth and expansion, ensure your intentions are aligned with your highest good. The Universe is saying “yes” with extraordinary speed. Make sure you’re asking for what truly serves your soul’s evolution.
Your Invitation on the New Moon
Pisces offers three gifts, the first being emotional healing. This is a precious opportunity to heal old wounds and discover strength in our vulnerabilities. You might find yourself naturally drawn to quiet moments of self-reflection during this time. Consider dedicating time each day to meditation, even if just for five minutes. As you sit in stillness, listen to your heart’s needs without judgment. Journaling can become a powerful tool during this season—let your thoughts flow naturally onto the page, without trying to direct or control them.
The new Moon in Pisces is a time to practice the most observant self—the witness self. It is a time to watch sensations within, letting them pass instead of reacting to them. This non-reaction is the heart of mindfulness meditation, which starts by observing the feelings in each area of the body. By placing awareness methodically on each part of the body, we are holding space for sensations and emotions to be felt, seen, and released. The purpose of this is to train the conscious and subconscious mind not to react to events internally or externally but merely observe them.
True observation is an art form—one that takes time, commitment, and understanding. Practicing meditation is a foundation for this type of awareness. You can start with just a few minutes and slowly increase your duration.
The second gift is enhanced intuition. During these weeks, your intuitive abilities naturally strengthen, a reminder that you are connected to universal wisdom and already possess the answers you seek. You might notice yourself receiving more frequent intuitive insights. Begin by trusting these subtle nudges in small decisions, gradually building confidence in your inner knowing. While logic has its place, you may discover that your intuition offers guidance that is both more precise and more profound than rational analysis alone.
The third gift Pisces brings is the art of surrender. This water sign teaches us to flow with life rather than against it, showing us the strength that comes from releasing our grip on control. You might notice moments when you’re trying to force outcomes—these are opportunities to practice gentle release. Surrendering doesn’t mean giving up; rather, it means trusting in divine timing and allowing your higher self to guide you.
Notice the moments when you resist going with the flow—these are your greatest teachers. Pay attention to your intuitive insights and their outcomes, building trust in your inner guidance system. Practice conscious surrender in your daily life, remembering that releasing control allows universal wisdom to work through you.
Creating moon water is a potent ritual that amplifies intentions during the new Moon. Water holds incredible power that responds to energy, including words and thoughts. Through intention and ritual, water can become infused with vibrations that support manifestation. This practice becomes even more potent during the new Moon in Pisces when the cosmic waters flow abundantly. Remember that this season isn’t about forcing transformation—it’s about allowing yourself to be present with whatever emerges.
