The New Moon in Pisces arrives February 27th, 2025 at 9° Pisces, landing squarely within an active Pisces house party of Neptune, the North Node, Mercury, Saturn, the Sun, and Moon — square to Jupiter, Pisces' traditional ruler, currently in detriment in Gemini. This New Moon carries Venus's signature throughout: it falls within Venus's bounds, Venus is exalted in Pisces, and Venus itself sits in its own bounds in detriment in Aries, keeping composure amid discomfort. Just two days after this New Moon, Venus stations retrograde, eventually returning to Pisces to conjunct Neptune, the North Node, and Saturn — first in retrograde motion, then again direct — adding extra flavor to themes of illusion, love, and finances. The 9th degree of Pisces corresponds to the Eight of Cups in tarot: a figure walking away from neatly stacked cups toward something higher, raising the central question of this New Moon — what do you need to walk away from to rediscover your original purpose? With Venus-Neptune energy blending love, beauty, and value with illusion, confusion, and escapism, this is a moment to examine whether your relationships and financial choices are grounded in reality or built on fantasy. Every rising sign faces its own version of this theme, activated through the specific houses Venus and Pisces occupy in their chart. As the Sabian symbol suggests, this New Moon is ultimately about whether you have the ability to dream — and whether, like the boy in A Knight's Tale asking if a man can change his stars, you believe you can change your fate. Know thyself. Balance your energy.
