One Full Moon and a sign change for Mercury headline this week’s cosmic happenings.
Full Moon in Pisces on 9/1 at 10:22PM PST / 9/2 at 1:22AM EST:
You know how lots of Full Moon are full of chaos, endings, disruptions, and jarring new circumstances? Well, this one won’t be one of them!
All the planets seem to be playing nicely for our annual Full Moon in the sign of Pisces. Yes, there will be an element of surprise, but it appears to be GOOD surprise! It seems to be a “wow, my creativity’s at an all-time high!” surprise. Or maybe even a “getting swept off our feet” romantically (and NOT being “duped” by it!) surprise. Basically, this is an imaginative, romantic, and —yes, surprising!—Full Moon.
As the case with ALL Full Moons, this tends to be a time of either endings and closure, culminations, or big decisions in an area of life super important to you. If you want a clue as to which particular situation or relationship this might allude, look back to February 23rd and the two weeks that followed. Yes, I know those were VERY different times then (the last New Moon before Coronavirus was declared a pandemic and turned all our lives upside-down!), but if you can glean the topic in question, that’s enough.
Sometimes, the big “revelation” or “closure” is merely seeing how something you thought was important doesn’t really fit into the scheme of your life now…and how you’re not only okay with it, but you recognize that you’ve been reserving space in your schedule and energy reserves for it that you can NOW use for something else.
Other times, a Full Moon might bring a milestone in the situation, or a big decision. Like, maybe you started dating someone around the time of the February 23rd New Moon. Now, at this corresponding Full Moon, you realize you DO want to take the next step with them! Though one thing this Full Moon is NOT great for is making commitments and signing contracts, you can still “decide” to move in together, even if the new lease doesn’t get signed until you then find your new “together home.”
My biggest astrological advice is to celebrate whatever situation you currently find yourself in! And if something sticks out as a puzzle piece that just doesn’t fit into your life anymore, you don’t have to JUDGE yourself. It worked back when you chose it. Now, choose something ELSE.

Mercury moves into Libra on 9/5:
Communication planet Mercury changes sign this week, into the reasonable and cooperative sign of Libra. For the next three weeks, expect your message to switch from detail-obsessed and perfectionistic to diplomatic, kind, and polite. This is an EXCELLENT time to negotiate, bargain, or collaborate, because you’ll be able to see all sides of a situation.
Mercury in Libra protocols:
Wear Neroli essential oil* as your personal fragrance and on your throat chakra. This will encourage you to work for win-win solutions instead of pushing your own agenda at all costs.
Use Tea Tree essential oil* on your inner wrist creases and along your inner forearms to detach from co-dependent patterns.
*Not all essential oils are created equal! Only use Certified Pure Therapeutic Grade (CPTG®) essential oils. If you’d like to purchase the oils to Hack this week’s Astrology, just click this link.
