Edition 13: New Moon in Pisces

March 18, 2026
Title

"Pisces is the sign of dreams, intuition, surrender and the unseen. It holds the wisdom that not everything needs to be understood to be trusted. This lunation does not ask you to figure anything out."

Title

This is the final New Moon of the astrological year. It arrives in the last sign of the zodiac, in the final days before the equinox, on the cusp of a new season and a new cycle. There is something quietly significant about that.
 

Pisces is the sign of dreams, intuition, surrender and the unseen. It holds the wisdom that not everything needs to be understood to be trusted. This lunation does not ask you to figure anything out. It asks you to feel your way through, to listen beneath the noise, and to let go of what has been weighing on you as you prepare to begin again. Tomorrow Mercury stations direct, the equinox arrives, and the astrological new year begins. The Moon has moved first. She is planting seeds in fertile ground before the rest of the world catches up. She is inviting you to do the same.

🌑 The New Moon in Pisces

Peaks Thursday 19 March at 12:23 pm AEDT

This lunation sits in the liminal space between one year and the next. The Sun and Moon meet in the final sign of the zodiac, beside Saturn and Neptune who wait in the first. Past speaking with future. Ending weaving into beginning.
 

Mercury, in the final moments of its retrograde, communes with the North Node in Pisces, the cosmic marker of purpose and direction. As we quiet the mind and turn inward, deep inner knowing speaks. Not always in clarity, but in feeling. What is for us speaks. What is no longer for us speaks too.
 

Jupiter and Mars are both in water signs at this lunation, asking us to act from a place of inner knowing rather than logic alone. They ask what it will take to make our dreams come to life. Trust your feelings. The Sun and Moon also connect with Uranus, bringing an expansive, electric quality to this new moon. Expect the unexpected and welcome it.
 

This is a threshold moment. What you begin here, even quietly and without certainty, sets the tone for the year ahead.

Title

🔮 Energies to Work With

✦ Intuition: your inner knowing is heightened right now. Trust the feelings and impressions that come through, even when they are not yet logical
 

✦ Dreaming forward: this is a powerful lunation for planting intentions, not from a place of striving, but from the heart. What do you genuinely desire?
 

✦ Releasing the old year: watch what pieces of you have run their course. Let them go with gratitude. What you leave behind sets the groundwork for what is to come
 

✦ Inspired action: Jupiter and Mars ask what it will take to make your dreams come to life. With both in water signs, we act from a place of inner knowing. Trust your feelings
 

✦ Openness: the Sun and Moon connect with Uranus at this new moon. Expect the unexpected and welcome it
 

✦ Surrender: not as passivity, but as the act of releasing control over what is not yours to force
 

This new moon is a loving reminder from all of existence: you are right on time.

Ritual Practice: Plant and Release

1. Prepare Your Space
Light a candle. Find somewhere quiet. Prepare a cup of Tsokolate Regulate with intention. This act alone is a signal to yourself: what follows matters.

 

2. Settle Before You Begin
Take three slow, deliberate breaths before you write a word: in through the nose, soften on the exhale. Pisces energy is deeply feeling and can bring emotions closer to the surface than usual. A moment of stillness before reflection creates the conditions for genuine insight rather than overwhelm.

 

3. Reflect with Honesty
Let these prompts guide you gently. There are no right answers.

  • What am I ready to release from the past year? What has run its course?
  • What is quietly calling to me that I have not yet given my full attention?
  • Where have I been waiting for certainty before I allow myself to begin?
  • What would I do, feel, or choose differently if I trusted my intuition completely?
  • What is one honest desire I am ready to say yes to?

 

4. Set One Intention
Not a goal with a deadline. A direction. A quality you want to grow into. A dream you are giving permission to exist.

Pisces plants seeds in the dark. You do not need to see the whole garden yet.
 

5. Seal with Edible Alchemy
Choose one or both of the following to anchor your intention into the body:
 

✦ Love Chocolate Strawberry, goji and coconut butter enrobed in 65% dark chocolate, sweetened with dates, infused with rose and schisandra berry to soothe the heart, uplift mood and regulate stress.
 

✦ Vision Chocolate Pistachio and toasted sesame praline enrobed in 65% dark chocolate, sweetened with dates, infused with brahmi and eyebright to sharpen mental clarity, support memory and open your channel of intuitive perception.
 

Savour slowly and let the alchemy anchor your intention into the body.

Edible Alchemy for the new moon

✦ Tsokolate Regulate (ceremonial drinking cacao) Infused with lavender to relax the nervous system, skullcap to ease anxiety and restore emotional balance, and passionflower to calm the mind and support deep relaxation. Pisces energy can bring emotions closer to the surface than usual. Regulate creates the inner stillness this practice requires.
 

✦ Sacred 7 Love Chocolate (Anahata, Heart Chakra) Infused with rose to soothe the heart and uplift mood, and schisandra berry to regulate the stress response and support emotional resilience. As we stand at the threshold of a new astrological year, Love Chocolate supports the releasing of old emotional weight and the softening into what is possible.
 

✦ Sacred 7 Vision Chocolate (Ajna, Third Eye Chakra) Infused with brahmi to support memory and mental clarity, and eyebright to sharpen perception and intuitive insight. With Mercury stationing direct at this lunation, the channel between inner knowing and outer action is opening. Brahmi quiets mental noise. Eyebright sharpens the signal beneath it.
 

Together these three support the full arc of this practice: settle, soften, and see clearly.

Title

Closing Reflection

You do not need certainty to begin. You do not need the full picture to take the first step. The Moon is planting herself in the dark, trusting that what she is becoming will reveal itself in time.
 

You determine your growth. If you believe it to be possible, it is.
 

What is ready to be released, let it go with gratitude. What is beginning in you, however quietly, give it your permission and your care.
 

This is the new year beginning. Right here, in the stillness, before the world catches up.

Your Ritual Awaits.
