“This week, as we read the final portion of the Torah that is read in the month of Pisces, we are given the gift of spiritual cleansing and purification. We are bathed in the Piscean waters and are made whole once again, bestowing us with the renewal of spirit and the purest of hearts for time ahead.” – Karen Berg on the portion of Shmini
This week represents the end of one cycle and the beginning of a new one from kabbalistic and cosmic perspective. As we move towards the last week in the sign of Pisces, which is the last sign in the Zodiac wheel, we gear up for a new cycle as we enter the month of Aries.
Energetically, we have just entered into spring in the Northern Hemisphere, which also represents a time for new beginnings, planting seeds, and renewing our motivation and desires. As the sun is already in the sign of Aries, it will be passing by the North Node in Aries throughout the entire week. This connection between the sun and the North Node has the potential to illuminate all of us and point us to areas in our lives where we need to be more courageous. This gives us the opportunity to awaken bigger desires and feel a new level of motivation and inspiration. It’s a week to connect to ourselves in new ways and give attention to what we really want and need.
This week, we have another conjunction (where two planets are right by each other) between Neptune and Venus in Pisces. This connection can be extremely romantic, poetic, and creative. It’s a good time to activate this special connection in our love lives, our spiritual work, or our creative endeavors. Both planets in the sign of Pisces represent a unique and powerful access to the spiritual world. We can elevate the level of our love and connection to others at this time.
As the moon changes sides every 2.5 days, on Wednesday, the moon will enter into the sign of Aquarius and stay there until Friday. Again, we witness a planet that passes by another big planet, and this time, it is the Moon passing by Pluto in Aquarius. This can provide all of us with a profound opportunity for emotional healing and transformation. And as a result of this opportunity, we can all achieve some level of liberation and emotional relief.
What a powerful week! Let's all utilize and internalize these forces!
