FEBRUARY 20th, 2023 - NEW MOON 🌚 IN PISCES ♓️
Unleashing the true creative power of emotions!
Centuries of cultures and traditions have used the moon's cycles to explore their innermost selves, manifest positive change in life and align with nature’s rhythms. From ancient times to the modern day, people venerate this celestial symbol as a representation of renewal, growth, and transformation - each phase is an opportunity for self-discovery or manifestation.
On February 20th, the new moon in Pisces shines a special light on transformation and renewal.
As we say goodbye to one phase of our lives, we open ourselves up to something fresh and exciting - an opportunity for growth! With Saturn finishing its journey through Aquarius until March 7, there is immense pressure toward self-improvement as our individual structures are completed. Come along with this period of emotionality: establish deeper connections with those you love while cultivating compassion and devotion within yourself.
Allow yourself the time needed for true unity during this cycle's completion process!
At this time, our emotions are naturally heightened, inspiring us to be more creative and imaginative than usual. However, we should be careful not to become overwhelmed by a sense of victimization but instead let the balance between emotion and logic guide us in an expansive sky full of airy energy.
Let’s dive together into the astrological insights of Ozlem Ozcan on this New Moon, and how it will impact each sign of the Zodiac:
Aries:
For you, brave Aries, this new moon is a chance to reflect on the past. It may be beneficial to explore your subconscious and discover hidden feelings or memories that you have been overlooking. Use this period of introspection for self-care - show yourself some compassion and recognize how sensitively in tune with others you can be! If you’re feeling generous, consider donating time or money towards collective causes. Although it might require making sacrifices yourself, rewards will come from helping those around you. In terms of working life during this lunar cycle, there could potentially be issues outside of your control manifesting as hostility. Try not to fight them head-on but rather accept what comes and trust that everything happens for a reason. When it comes to your finances, aim for stability and avoid taking any chances. That being said, be prepared in case sudden changes occur - keeping a balance of steadfastness and adaptability is key!
Taurus:
This new moon is promising to bring great luck your way, and could hold the key to establishing strong business connections as well as forging powerful friendships. If you've been struggling with a career path lately, Saturn's entrance into Pisces at the start of March may be just what you need for those long-awaited changes in your life. As this fresh month brings newfound opportunities towards achieving goals, remember that it pays off to take things slowly - especially when dealing with authority figures! Careful consideration can go a long way in securing success down any chosen path.
Gemini:
For those of you born under the sign of Gemini, who loves to embrace change, this month marks a brand-new start with regard to achieving your life goals. As Saturn transitions into Pisces in March, get ready for an influx in responsibilities when it comes to career advancement, as well as family and relationship matters. Take full advantage of it: exciting new opportunities await that will help shape your future path! Whether you’re keen on making significant changes at work or simply looking forward to promotions within your current job, Mars's energy currently placed in Gemini offers ambition and aggression. However, be mindful not to lose perspective, especially during intellectual talks. While there may be sudden developments in your legal processes, if any, or in foreign-related matters, the key is to ground yourself and stay calm in any situation.
Cancer:
This new moon brings forth a lucky period for the emotional Cancer sign, full of vast opportunities and limitless potential. A time to rise spiritually - trust in your intuition as it will be stronger than ever before! Love, children, and legal matters are all touched with luck: those restrictive barriers that have been holding you back may soon be lifted and the possibilities will finally feel infinite! Miraculous events could appear that bring an entirely fresh perspective on life, but finances must remain cautious to make sure unexpected surprises don't arise. When it comes to money matters, make sure you're extra mindful when dealing with siblings or close friends: proper financial etiquette is key for keeping long-term luck on your side.
Leo:
Leos are in for a month of exciting connections! They will find joy in creating more tender and meaningful relationships with the people around them and must remain conscious of their investments - it’s important to make wise decisions that could lead to big gains down the road. Don't let all these possibilities get overwhelming, dear Leo: be sure to take time out each day for some self-care. Lastly, when business opportunities come your way, don't shoot first and aim later: evaluate any collaborations before diving right into them!
Virgo:
The new moon brings a remarkable opportunity for Virgos to reimagine their relationship choices. With Saturn transiting in Pisces, this is the chance to make that big move whether it be marriage or joining forces with powerful business partners. Dear Virgo, take advantage of this cosmic invitation from the stars themselves: redefine routines and embrace your dreams! Make bold decisions now as you continue on your journey towards ultimate fulfillment in all aspects of life, including healthcare matters.
Libra:
This new month brings Libras an opportunity to find balance and equality in all areas of their life, from relationships to business. They will be presented with the challenge of serving others through work or sacrifice, but this can become a source of creativity as well! Be aware that instability may appear suddenly: seize these moments by recognizing coincidences when they arise – especially concerning love affairs. But proceed cautiously when it comes to money matters. Investments may appear tempting but tread carefully as risks lurk beneath alluring promises of profit.
Scorpio:
As the new moon rises in alignment with Scorpios’ fluid energy, they are set to enter a period of intense emotional and creative growth. This may manifest in an unexpected romantic development or even a brand-new flame that could stick around for years! Of course, those with children will be faced with some tough life choices involving their beloved offspring, but also with the possibility to explore fresh career paths by turning beloved hobbies into income sources. Last but not least: existing couples have the chance to make major decisions about home and family during this powerful moment in time.
Sagittarius:
The freedom-loving Sagittarius is in for an exciting period: they will finally get the chance to call a place home and lay down some roots. With the new moon, bigger life changes such as marriage or having children may come into consideration. Saturn's position in Pisces means starting anew when it comes to private affairs and this could even bring inspiring people your way! March promises all sorts of good things that are sure not to disappoint any zodiac sign, especially you, dear Sagittarius. Your mind is very active and you can meet people who will inspire you in your daily life.
Capricorn:
As the new moon rises, your relationships with siblings and other relatives are set to develop further. Short trips could also be on the cards: perhaps now is the perfect time for a getaway! For those of you involved in business ventures, there may be opportunities to launch into negotiations or sign deals that will benefit both parties. It's an ideal period creatively too: tap into this energy by taking up spiritual studies or getting into crafting some longer-term writing projects if words come naturally to you. Your focus right now lies firmly on money-making matters so prepare yourself mentally as achieving these goals has its price: exhaustion! That won't stop your creative drive though: you will discover ways where developing interesting business ideas can bring about fruitful results even when tiredness starts kicking in!
Aquarius:
You Aquarius, who is the most marginal of the zodiac, are focusing on your material issues and abilities with this new moon. It's time to take advantage of your creative and spiritual strengths, allowing them to bring you financial rewards! The doors of blessing are opening up for you: you are in a process where you can express yourself comfortably, and you can be more open, especially when communicating with your family members - this might also lead to unexpected changes in your home life. All these pieces add up to an exciting journey ahead: it’s time to step out boldly and make things happen!
Pisces:
This is the month of new beginnings for Pisces, whose sensitivity and romanticism are part of their zodiac legacy. The tables have turned and it's time to start that long-awaited project or set fresh intentions - a boost in creativity could be just around the corner! With opportunities abounding on all channels, don't forget to draw boundaries between yourself and others so you can navigate this special moment with grace, since your sensitivity and fragility might be increased. Get out there & make your luck happen: let those feelings flow freely and set brand new intentions for yourself. Your creative power will increase a lot!

Make The Most of The New Moon Lunar Energy
The New Moon brings an incredible opportunity to manifest the life of your dreams. Connect with its powerful energy and take inspired action through rituals that speak to you. From writing down intentions in a notebook, lighting a candle while focusing on aspirations, or even meditating - there are many ways for you to create meaningful change during this potent lunar phase!
Give yourself permission to plan an unforgettable experience and start deepening your bond with the New Moon: create a powerful ritual that resonates uniquely with you! Go shopping for ritual items in Dubai, build a tranquility-inducing sacred space by smudging sage and placing crystals around, light candles, and jot down your desires, watching them manifest as they’re infused with spiritual energy from beyond.
Remember: the energy of the New Moon amplifies whatever intention is set during this time, so setting intentions for your spiritual practice can be powerful and deeply meaningful. Here are some ideas for incorporating New Moon rituals into your life:
Set Intentions and Meditate
Take some time to reflect on how you want to use the New Moon's powerful energy to transform yourself and your life. Ask yourself what kind of transformation would you like to see happen as a result of this lunar cycle, write down your intentions, and focus on them during meditation. During this time, you can bring awareness to any areas in your life where you feel there is potential for growth or improvement.
Make Moon Water
Place a glass bowl or container outside in the light of the night sky under the new moon. This is a great way to absorb the energy of the moon and infuse it into your life: you can drink it, wash with it, or use it to water your plants.
Create a New Moon Altar
Dedicate an area in your home or garden to the New Moon by creating an altar space with objects that represent your intentions for this time. Place candles, symbols, crystals, cards, and flowers on the altar as offerings in honor of the New Moon.
By incorporating rituals into your life, you can deepen your connection with the cycles of nature and make the most of their energy. The New Moon is an auspicious time to reflect on your own intentions and take a step toward creating lasting changes in your life.
