Aug 27, 2026 is an eclipse at 9:12 pm PT followed by a full Moon in Pisces at 9:18 pm PT. Water sign Pisces rules the 12th house of spirituality, intuition, dreams, compassion, and imagination. Pisces are gentle souls who love art, peace, and beauty. An eclipse is an absence of light when the shadow is seen, making this full Moon and as the Moon wanes a time of powerful intuition and spiritual discovery. There can be emotional release of the past, and new protective boundaries with others.
The full Moon is opposite the Sun and Mercury in Virgo. Analytical Earth sign Virgo favors logic, planning, and practical problem solving whereas Pisces often makes choices based on emotion or instinct. During this eclipse time, Virgo detailed facts and Pisces abstract knowing can find balance for clear communication about thoughts and feelings. Instead of right or wrong, there can be comprehension, even appreciation, of both mutable Earth sign Virgo and mutable Water sign Pisces experiences.
The full Moon, Sun, and Mercury square Uranus in Gemini. Therefore, it could be challenging to maintain your work due to questioning if you really believe in what you are doing. Due to the eclipse, what was suppressed for a long time could come to the surface. In your domestic life, your emotional needs might not be consistent with the needs of others. Circumstances might require a reevaluation. Contact me for your tarot or astrology reading for guidance.
This full Moon marks the peak of Fire Monkey lunar month in Fire Horse year. Monkey’s influence brings sharpness of mind, quick innovation, and the ability to make fast change. And Fire Horse wants action, so resolution can happen quickly. The path is cleared to follow your feelings. But Fire energy could become intense or chaotic. Allow the Pisces lunar influence to bring gentleness, and some Water to dowse the Fire if needed.
Pisces spiritual understanding is for all, and is most powerful for Water signs Pisces, Cancer, and Scorpio and those born in Rabbit, Dragon, Sheep, Monkey, and Pig years.
Happy full Moon,
