The Pisces Hangover

Photography by Tim Walker

Common as it is on Monday to feel like your get up and go already got up and went, this week is a nebulous path. Hard to get all the way into fast as it drags its feet over the new lines.

We are in Pisces but barely beyond Aquaria. Mercury is direct but still parked at his retrograde station. The hazy discombobulated hangover of both has descended and it is dulling our bright eyes like a stupor.

Caught in the brackish water between overthinking and underfeeling, we can too easily cancel ourselves out. Mistake daemons for devils and let our fear of change dress itself up as intuition and shut us down.

After a heady Aquarian excursion designed to rewire neurons and foster revolution within, our marvellous minds are exhausted. We have spent a month being hit by lightning, blindsided by tangents and scrambling to accommodate rapid change. Our addled brains need time and space to rest and digest the water bearer's flood.

Giving thy heavy head time off isn't easy for ultra modern recovering control freaks. Neither is existing in a fresh state beyond conditioned response and hive minding. Multiplied by a niggling factor of fuckwittery, according to how many in your world are refusing their own evolution and digging heels into old mud.

Pisces mutability is the balm we seek. Its calm blue ocean can soften hard edges as its ripples render change. You can bet a water noodle it is going to get beyond old emo boundaries and sneak under the protections you placed around your true feelings.

Pisces knows emotional fluency is a superpower. A crucial strut of intuition, golden compass and failsafe barometer. Your feelings are a bespoke intelligence only reframed to suit others at your peril.

As the waxing moon shines increasing light on the last few weird weeks in Aquaria, your heart can help make better sense of it than your head. You will have to clamber all the way back into your body and hit the switch from thinking to feeling for best results this week.

By the weekend the grounded goodness of the Virgo full moon hopes to meet us beholden to naught beyond our brave new world. Keep conjuring its welcome and coming home to yourself at its pearly gates.
