For the next couple of days it is important with relationships and finances to be “above board” about everything. If you feel suspicious about something, try to be level-headed and not get carried away.

3° Pisces 12′

We have all heard the effects of the full Moon where emergency room visits escalate and people act a bit more “lunatic” than usual. Some claim that this is an old superstition but it is a scientific fact that the ocean tides rise as the ocean on the side of Earth facing the moon gets pulled toward the Moon!! This creates high tide and pulls the ocean water away from the earth!

Although there doesn’t seem to be any scientific proof of the full Moon effects on humans, the fact that the human body is made up of approximately 80% of water, it is easy to understand why the full Moon may have such an effect on people, especially those with an emphasis of water in their charts (Cancer, Scorpio, and Pisces).

During this full Moon in Pisces it is a good time to work in seclusion, help the less fortunate and dream. It is also an auspicious time for psychic abilities and anything to do with water. Enjoying time on the beach or a walk by a lake,  dip in the pool,  to a bubble bath may be most rewarding now. This is the time to relax and follow your inspirations.  Creativity flows easily now and may help inspire artistic accomplishments.  This is also a positive time for doing meditation or yoga. Reading a good novel, music and movies may be more enjoyable now.
