🌊Neptune in the Houses🌊
1st house:
You choose how to act and project yourself to others based on the subconscious cues that you acquire from them. Your identity is often based on how others see you and talk about it. There is a degree of loss when it comes to self-expression- the unheard child learns to perform to express identity.
2nd house:
Poor with managing, organizing, and structuring finances and possessions. Overly generous with resources. Might make money in nefarious ways if Neptune is poorly aspected. More positively, these natives might profit from pharmacology, marine biology, medicine, or NGO work.
3rd house:
The local environment has a Piscean element. Early school years also were characterized by daydreaming and escaping from learning. The loss of a sibling to unknown or sudden causes is likely in some cases (depending on the aspects). It could suggest that your siblings/cousins/classmates that are close to you are artists, singers, or dreamers. In a negative sense, this might attract escapist friends with a heavy victim mentality.
4th house:
Issues with water, pipes, and flooding in the home. Home near bodies of water. Your mother or a potent female figure in your life might be sick and require care from you or your family members. In this case, the gist is that the family might cause you to feel neglected and forgotten, making you want to escape the domestic setting through art or physical separation. These natives are quite nocturnal- they sleep all day and stay up all night to avoid their families in some cases.
5th house:
Death of children. Loss of lovers to illness, substance abuse, prison, crime, or mental disorders. Lovers might be absent while present either because of their own commitments to helping someone old/vulnerable or through escapism (drugs, sex, alcohol, etc) or poor health.
6th house:
Watch out for the immune system. Habits and routines might not express a desire for a person to live well. Poor habits. Disorganized. No discipline and routine when it comes to eating, working, exercising and taking care of oneself at the bodily level. Neglected as a child and did not learn to properly care for themselves.
7th house:
Attracted to partners that aren't really "there." This sense of absence in presence can be because of the following things: frequent travels, substance abuse, prison, mental illness, philanthropic work that takes the person's time, religious fidelity, etc. You might "lose" a partner to their vices and blame yourself for it.
8th house:
Potential for misunderstandings in transactions (financial) with others. Deception when it comes to money that you get from others. There is vagueness and gullibility when perceiving people's sexual or financial advances toward us. Be careful of who you let into your life sexually or romantically.
9th house:
Confusion regarding beliefs, higher education, and vision for the future. If in university, the campus might be located near water, or you might study subjects related to the pharmaceutical industry, oil, gas, pharmacology, parasitology, virology, marine studies, psychology, or you might enter esoteric fields (astrology, tarot, etc.) or you might study theology.
10th house:
Confusion about future and career. Fear tied to career prospects and the father. The father might have been absent or neglectful which manifests in an inability to be stable in a job.
11th house:
Friends slip through your fingers. We may need clarification about our hopes and life goals because Neptune here makes our ideals changeable. So, our vision for life is usually mutable and influenced by external forces that people rarely have the self-awareness to explore. This is also a highly intuitive placement.
12th house:
This is a good placement because Neptune is comfortable in the 12th house. Intuition is good. Sleep is very essential for you. Heightened motivation to get to know yourself through self-reflection, meditation, and spirituality, and project these learnings to heighten your empathy.
Thank you for reading!

🌊Astrological Observations: Part 4🌊
Hard Neptune transits (square, opposition, conjunction) can cause health issues, especially if it is aspecting your natal Mercury, Moon, or Sun. For example, when Neptune touched my Moon last year, I caught a virus that wrecked my immune system for months.
Neptune-Sun transits weaken the body to infections, viruses, and bruising while reducing our ability to see through other people's deception.
The sign in the 6th house indicates the type of health issues people might have. Having Leo in the 6th could indicate heart issues, for example.
Having Neptune-Sun aspects in the natal chart could also indicate the father's absence either through illness, substance abuse, working abroad, death, abandonment, etc. These natives and 12th house suns feel like their power was taken from them and that they cannot change the course of things. As such, they learn to be passive in life. If they have more cardinal placements, they might experience a need to overcompensate for an inner sense of feeling powerless and helpless.
Hard Saturn-Mars or Pluto-Mars aspects can indicate violence. They usually need to exercise or healthily express their frustrations; otherwise, they risk becoming abusive. After years of bottling up their emotions, they're prone to harsh and intense rages.
Since Mars represents our ability to defend ourselves, survive, and feel vivacious, having Saturn in a harsh aspect with Mars can indicate that a person fails or is too terrified of defending oneself. They subconsciously accept that they will fail at holding their ground. With time, this creates a lot of frustration from feeling like they are constantly being stepped on. As a result, these natives overcompensate by self-asserting themselves in the wrong situations and in the wrong manner.
Saturn-Mars natives may also scare themselves out of any competitive situation even though they can succeed. Their belief in their own impotence and powerlessness makes them self-sabotage and detail themselves in competitive situations. Their life lesson is to be disciplined and self-assess their abilities properly so that they can enter any situation confidently. They need to learn, through repetition, how to be courageous.
Hard Mars-ASC aspects indicate lots of accidents and head injuries in youth. These people usually have scars on their bodies from surgeries or accidents.
Usually, when Pluto touches a part of the chart, secrets are involved. Pluto-Mercury means knowing the secrets of your friends, cousins, siblings, or local environment. Pluto-Venus indicates issues around secret love affairs or money.
Interestingly, I noticed that Pluto-Mercury or Pluto in the 11th house can indicate being sexualized by your friends or having a sexual relationship with them.
Having Sun-Mercury-Pluto aspects is an indicator of debilitating intrusive thoughts. It can create over-identification with one's thoughts while feeling like your mind is your enemy.
Sun-Mercury alone can mean that your intellect and communication skills are your source of pride, esteem, and achievements.
Saturn-Mercury natives feel like they must think 100 times before speaking because of their immense fear of humiliation. This placement, along with Saturn in the 3rd or 9th, is a big sign of feeling ashamed of how one communicates their ideas and identity.
Also, Saturn-Mercury aspects and a retrograde Mercury can make the person avoid doing exams or forget all their knowledge during exams because of their anxiety. This placement can also indicate a speech impediment.
Uranus-Mercury natives are usually incredibly intelligent, and their processing speed is phenomenal. They can catch and retain information quickly and with minimal effort, unlike Saturn-Mercury natives who need to drill the information into their heads agonizingly.
Jupiter-Mercury individuals are usually intelligent but sometimes incoherent and imprecise with their communication. They also struggle with synthesizing information. They are better researchers than they are articulators because they cannot focus on the information that they have except with a lot of effort. They're the type of teacher or professor with much information but are not very organized.

☀️Astrology Observations: Part 3☀️
I noticed that Leo risings are obsessed with leopard/cat/tiger/any feline prints. They also might have a Lion tattoo or necklace or something similar. My cousin has her Venus in Leo and she always wears Leopard prints and always has a Lion as her wallpaper.
Pluto in the 6th house transits and in the natal chart usually creates an obsession with fitness, health, and diet. I know someone with this aspect who works out 3 times per day and is repeatedly asked by her doctor to work out less.
Harsh Mars-Mercury aspects in the birth chart can indicate coming off as overly aggressive with your tone. These people frequently interrupt people, talk fast, and don't really care about the effect that their words have on people as long as they get their point across. These people also curse a lot or, on a more positive note, are really good with crafts.
Aquarius Mercuries usually major in technical/STEM fields such as UI/UX Design, Computer Science, AI, Math, etc.
Having Aquarius in the 2nd house frequently indicates that you need to create opportunities to expand your resources (make money/develop your career or business) independently and in a way that leverages your uniqueness. These people cannot accept a 9 to 5 job unless it is technical, niche, or humanitarian. Either way, they tend to face delays when getting started in their careers because they more intensely rebel against having to work for someone else's enterprise.
Venus in Pisces individuals tend to be overly generous with their resources and spill money like water.
Some Scorpio Mars natives are motivated to take action out of spite or to prove someone wrong.
A lot of Leo risings with Taurus on their midheaven tend to be models because it is a Venus-ruled career. However, there are other interpretations based on the house that Venus is in. For example, a person that I know has a Taurus MC which is ruled by Venus in the 6th house. Incidentally, she makes money being a model and a fitness/health guru.
Having Libra in the 9th house indicates that you are a bit wishy-washy about choosing your career. You determine your worldviews based on what the people around believe in and tend to mirror their views instead of cultivating your own. In university, these people thrive in interdisciplinary careers, relationship psychology, international affairs, diplomacy, design, as well as LAW.
People with Taurus in the 9th house study the arts and humanities a lot of the time (they could become literary critics, writers, and cultural historians). This placement can also indicate that you attend a very aesthetically pleasing university with a lot of greenery. On another note, it can indicate being interested in the arts and design and educating yourself on such Venusian (can include finance) matters.
Having a Saturn-ruled (Aquarius or Capricorn) sign in the 7th house indicates being too closed-off from relationships, fear of vulnerability, and delays in getting partnered due to their high standards.
Taurus risings usually look like or embody the energy of their Venus sign.
Having a lot of 4th house placements can indicate living with an older family member or being in a neighborhood with a lot of old people.
Pluto in the 11th house indicates being isolated from society, losing a friend, or having friends that are bad for you. It also indicates having very potent relationships and being an influential figure with a lot of powerful connections.
Sun-Pluto aspects indicate being exploited when young. A figure in your life exerted power over you and made you feel humiliated. This usually scars the individual and makes them very paranoid of people's intentions and allows them to learn how to read people as a self-protective mechanism. Frequently, Sun-Pluto contacts can indicate leaving a powerful (negative or positive) mark on the world post-mortem. Emmitt Till is an example of someone with this aspect whose death was striking and shook the likes of Mohammad Ali and James Baldwin. His mother wanted everyone to see his mangled body by insisting on an open casket funeral to show the brutality of what caused his murder-racism (he was brutally murdered after being falsely accused of raping a white woman in the 50s). The picture of his body, to this day, is very powerful and represents a pivotal change in the civil rights movement's trajectory.
Sun in the 12th house indicates having a strained relationship with the dad and can indicate getting lost on your path in life more often than others. This placement often plagues the person with self-doubt and an inability to take action even after everything is planned. More often than not, I see this placement in people who work as ghostwriters where they are detached from the outcome of their words/ideas/identity. These people do well in supporting roles even though they usually wish to take a central role- they usually do later in life.

🌸Astrology Observations: Family/Home Edition🌸
The 4th house tells us about our environments, family life, domestic life, our subconscious desires, and our ability to manifest in some cases!
Uranus-Moon aspects or Aquarius Moon or Uranus in the 4th house placements usually have an erratic home life where they never feel settled. The mother might possess jittery energy which makes sitting in the home almost unbearable. If you live alone, this could manifest as feeling restless when at home and having the need to get out of the house or move frequently.
Moon in the 3rd house natives also feel the need to move a lot.
Though this is unrelated to family life, I see that Saturn in the 4th house does not always indicate a harsh family life, sometimes it delegates our sense of responsibility from the household and family to "care work" or working in fields such as nursing, medicine, caring for the young or the elderly, etc. This is because Saturn, a lot of the time, tells us about our careers.
Libra Moons usually despise environments that aren't harmonious or tidy. They need their home to be aesthetically pleasing and ordered.
Having the ruler of the 4th house in the 7th house makes you fantasize about building a home with your future partner.
Saturn in the 4th house with an aspect to Mercury indicates having very controlling parents and siblings. It also means being the scapegoat in the family.
Additionally, Saturn in the 4th house can indicate generational wealth and a hefty inheritance.
Neptune in the 4th house can indicate issues with water in the house. Leaks, floods, issues with pipes, rust in your water, etc. It can also mean losing the home or being susceptible to theft or break-ins. Positively, it might just mean that you have a water fountain or a body of water near the home.
Mars in the 4th house puts the person at risk of fires in the home especially when cooking if Taurus is involved. A common astrological remedy for this is to have a fireplace in the house to manifest this energy in a safe way.
Sun in the 4th house could indicate that your father's wealth comes from property management and real estate. Natives with this placement also vividly resemble one of their parents -usually the mother.
Moon-Mercury placements or mercury in the 4th house indicate having a lot of books and stationery at home.
From my experience, some people with Pluto in the 4th house / Pluto-Moon placements grew up in a cult or with one of their parents being part of a cult or a religious zealot. Pluto in the 4th can also mean experiencing a deep sense of grief from losing an old family member that was close to you in your upbringing.
Venus in the 4th house indicates having a beautiful home, a mother that is either a Taurus or Libra or owns her own business in the food, agricultural, or beauty industries, to name a few. Other industries include property management, interior design, interior architecture, florist, wedding planning, event management, a ceramics business, and selling home appliances, kitchenware, and tableware.
Uranus in the 3rd house feels like you were brought up as an "other" or stranger within your immediate environment. Uranus in the 4th is a stranger in their own home.

Hey,
do you strongly believe that astrology placements can predict your sexuality/orientation?
I’ve HOCD and seeing an astrology post regarding this and having a couple placements like those has flared up my anxiety and my doubts.
I’ve never ever questioned my sexuality before,but after hocd hit me everything went downhill and i’ve been in an extremely bad place.
Please do help me in this.
Thankyou
Hey! Okay, so from what I have read, there are placements that indicate a more flexible approach to love which denotes people being okay with any kind of relationship and not just the "traditional" types. These placements show openness and receptiveness to such experience but do not MAKE a person a member of the LGBTQ+ community, for example.
All I can say is, if you never had a reason to doubt your sexuality before, you have no reason to doubt it now because of a couple of posts on the topic. There are many interpretations of the same placements and I think the best practice would be to look them all up and see which one resonates the most with you and fits best with the general themes contained in your chart.

Astrology Observations: Relationships 💕🌸
Pluto-Venus transits produce intense, and life-changing relationships that reveal hidden aspects of our subconscious processes, triggers, and, in come cases, traumas. They usually last 2 to 3 years and produce obsessions and entanglements. They are generally gnarly if the person does not learn about their self-sabotaging habits. It can also lead the person to trauma bond with people or be in a parasitic relationship where you are having the literal life sucked out of you or vice versa. Sex is usually spiritual and is the site within which these hidden power dynamics/sense of powerlessness operate.
As the planet of toxicity, when Pluto comes in contact with Venus, you are sucked into a darker realm, your dating pool consists of isolated, troubled, psychologically disturbed, prideful, obsessive people, paranoid, and jealous people. You want people to obsess over you as a way to own them or vice versa. It makes you fall in love with the other person's deep attachment to you or their desire to possess you.
Neptune-Venus or Neptune-Moon contacts create dreamy, hazy, and isolating relationships. They're filled with music, art, laughter, late nights where time drifts away, and sometimes delusion about a person's good qualities. In the natal chart, it may make you feel like your partner is never actually there, they're always a breath away from disappearing or drowning in themselves.
Uranus-Venus in the natal chart produces sudden relationships, affairs (sometimes), and relationships with someone who works in tech, supply chain management, teachers, psychics, scientists, and astrologers. It also can indicate having long-distance relationships and having them run hot and cold due to Uranus's erratic nature. Generally, you tend to be restless in your relationships and need to change things up a lot.
Uranus-Moon aspects in the natal chart indicate erratic emotional expression and regulation. The person also runs hot and cold, sometimes affectionate before detaching and intellectualizing their emotions. This manifests in an erratic communication and attachment style in relationships leaning more towards avoidance and dismissiveness.
Mars-Venus placements often are very passionate and impulsive in relationships. They can cheat especially when young but this usually simmers down as the native gets used to this energy in their life. It attracts athletes, engineers, army personnel, craftsmem, etc. This also makes for strong athletes and talented dancers. In some cases, this can even create good artists and writers!
Venus in Gemini placements usually struggle to commit early in life because they are quite changeable and desire a level of intellectual stimulation that not many can fulfill. They usually talk to many people and are often stuck in the "talking phase" because they get the most validation and fulfillment from these phases as they usually stimulate the curious Gemini mind.
Venus-Mercury placements produce cognitive dissonance when it comes to relationships. It can indicate having multiple partners as Mercury usually doubles things and introduces multiple elements. This can also mean being in a relationship with intellectuals, people in marketing, sales, advertising, data analysis, teaching, etc.
Saturn in the 7th house people usually get in relationships later in life and are attracted to older more authoritative people.
Neptune in the 7th house transits usually mean that the partner might be absent either physically or mentally through illness, travel, or spiritual/artistic endeavors. Whereas in the natal chart, it can indicate falling in love with artists, photographers, make-up artists, cosmetologists or aestheticians, painters, spiritual gurus, travel agents, pop culture experts, musicians, writers, and, sometimes, content creators. Unfortunately, Neptune is usually scarier for me than Pluto in aspect or transit because it can suddenly take things away from people. In the 7th house, it can take your partner away (illness or travel) and in worst cases, it could lead to the partner's death.
This is not relationship related but two of my relatives have Neptune in the 5th house and both of them lost their children, unfortunately. This is why I usually look to Neptune in anticipation of disasters because its energy is more diffuse and elusive than Saturn or Pluto.
Jupiter-Venus aspects usually, no matter what happens to them, know that they will find love. They often believe that they "never run out" of lovers. It can show a generous, caring, wise, and high-minded partner. These people are also generally funny, charming, and have big personalities which make them attractive and magnetic to others. They might also meet their lovers in universities, religious places, or abroad.
Venus-Moon aspects in the chart are usually very attractive. These people glow and are very sensual. They usually end up with kind, nurturing, and caring people OR manipulative, codependent types if the moon is badly aspected.
Having a 10th house Libra can indicate being attracted to your superiors or vice versa. It also means you like people with Capricorn traits and wants someone who has a distinguished career and achievements.
Venus in the 9th house or Venus-Jupiter aspects can mean meeting your lover abroad or on vacation. The same goes for Venus in the 12th house.

Astrology Observations: Career Edition
Aquarius risings might thrive working as data analysts or researchers because they have Scorpio in their 10th house and Virgo in their 8th house. This might also apply to Capricorn risings with a Scorpio 10th house.
Saturn in Aries natives struggle with boundaries in the workplace.
Interestingly, Moon-Mercury placements or having the Moon in Mercury-ruled signs (Gemini or Virgo) make a person more likely to be a writer. The Moon is more implicated in whether a person becomes a writer or not.
Aquarius moons or Moon-Uranus natives might work in humanitarian organizations. This is also a good placement for writers.
Dancers usually have prominent Mercury placements and aspects in their charts.
Mercury placements might also really like tinkering and working with their hands.
Having a Taurus moon makes you thrive in real estate, interior design, working with jewelry or expensive materials/objects, construction, civil engineering, and agriculture.
Virgo risings are usually very good social media managers, content creators, and bloggers, and work well in digital marketing because it combines their linguistic prowess with their analytical mind.
Jupiter in the 2nd house and having a 4th house Taurus makes you likely to make money through your voice. Combine that with Gemini placements or 3rd house planets and it makes for voice actors, singers, or narrators.
Libra risings do very well in sales because having Cancer in their 10th house gives them insight into people's subconscious drives and allows them to connect with people on a collective level to determine the trends and strategies that would best influence the masses. It makes for powerful politicians as well.
Lots of politicians have a lot of 12th house placements such as French President Emanuel Macron.
Having Gemini in the 6th house means that you could make money through ghostwriting.
Generally, if you need guidance on what you should do for your career, look at your earth houses: 2nd, 6th, and 10th houses, as well as your Saturn and Mercury placements.
Venus in Capricorn thrives when they run their own business.
Venus or Mercury in Taurus placements might succeed in opening restaurants or working in the food industry.
Mercury in Sagittarius might work as a professor, travel agent, international affairs, PR, writer, or in coaching.
Lawyers usually have 9th house placements while judges have 10th house placements.
If you have Cancer in your 7th house, you might attract clients that try to emotionally manipulate you or who might use their sensitivity against you when you are working in a strictly professional manner. They might make professional matters personal.
Thank you for reading!

Astro-Forecast: Virgo New Moon🌙
Disclaimer: This is a general overview. I cannot cover everything and chose to focus on the most relevant info for each sign!
Date: August 27/28- depending on where you live in the world.
This new moon gives us the chance to focus on:
Our mental and physical health, how we organize our tasks to get things done, how we can be of service to others, and our habits.
This moon will be squared by the Gemini Mars and might generate tension if you want to start something new. How this plays out depends on your rising sign (SEE BELOW).
It is also important to manifest using pen and paper during this time because the earthy moon emphasizes the mechanical act which puts our desires (moon) on paper (mercurial quality of Virgo) through physical labor (earth).
On to the rising signs/placements:
🌸 Aries:
This new moon will be activating your 6th house of health, debt, service, and habits. Since Mars, your ruling planet will be making a square to this new moon, I anticipate that this might cause fighting in the home or minor physical illness that informs you of your lack of proper habits to take care of your health. I've noticed a lot of Aries risings are neglecting their health and this new moon might be a warning that you need to be more careful. It can also mean that you might suddenly need to make repairs to your devices or car, or that you need to pay a debt.
🌸 Taurus:
In your 5th house, this new moon is telling you to start a new hobby and make sure you can monetize it too! (Mars in the 2nd house for 7 months). Or it could indicate that you might be writing a book or becoming an author. You might gain public recognition for certain efforts- mostly literary or anything text-based. Knowing that not all Taurus placements will suddenly become famous, I'd say this might manifest in a good effort to write something or express yourself somehow in a way that makes you feel proud of yourself!
🌸 Gemini:
As a mutable sign, you'll be more impacted by this new moon. It'll be happening in your 4th house squaring Mars in your 1st house. It'll be a tumultuous yet productive time for you. You will be asserting yourself in the home and taking up the space that you deserve. This indicates to me that some of you have been feeling that you don't have a space for yourselves and you will be making it clear that no one gets to mess with that. Asserting yourself now will be fruitful for you, and I encourage you to do so.
🌸 Cancer:
With this new moon activating your 3rd house, generally a lucky house, and with the Mars transit activating your 12th house, things can get a bit tricky. This is looking like it might cause a lot of emotional turmoil to rise to the surface (your mind - 3H), and the best advice that I can provide is to use physical activity as a way to release negative emotions. The reason I say that this is an emotional time is that you also have Mercury transitting your 4th house. Use this energy to make changes in the home to make it a safer, more comfortable, and secure space for you.
🌸 Leo:
Leos, this new moon is happening in your 2nd house of finances, luxury, security, and sensuality, giving you the chance to think of what you want financially and how you can actually make that happen. With Venus in Leo, there is an amplified focus on Venusian elements in your life. Use this energy boost to plan for how you want to get financial gain and be mindful of any collaborations that might emerge during this time because they can become valuable partnerships or friendships in the future. You might find a way to make passive income even though that idea might be opposed by others at first. Caution: relationship tensions are highly likely but can be resolved.
🌸 Virgo:
Happening in your 1st house, you are the main character! The things that you've been thinking about throughout the last three weeks of August will have you planting seeds pertaining to your career. Initially, you might need to take bold action or put yourself out there, which might make you feel stressed at first, but it will lead to beautiful outcomes as the moon transits later degrees and forms. an earth grand trine involving Pluto and Uranus on the 28th. Though Pluto and Uranus aren't the most positive of planets, the grand trine allows your manifestations and efforts to be supported as long as you make sure you PLAN for the desired outcomes especially if it relates to your career, education/ travels, or hobbies. You've had a tough year but now you get the chance to see your efforts materialize as the rest of the year unfolds!
🌸 Libra:
Occurring in your 12th house, this new moon will be a bit more internal for you. It might unlock your true desires for your future plans, your vision, and your inspiration to keep moving forward in life (or friendships). It activates doubts or questions about what you plan to do in terms of your higher education, spiritual development, travels, and your guiding principles. For some people, you might think of changing your major! Or, you might consider going on a retreat to rethink some life choices. On another note, this new moon will really be causing some conflict with Mars transiting your 9th house and casting doubt over the validity of your recent choices. You will have the opportunity to make amends pertaining to that matter in the next 7th months as Mars transits Gemini and the effects of the new moon gradually unfold.
🌸 Scorpio:
Scorpios, this moon is focused on your long-term goals, vision for the future, desire for progress, friendships, humanitarian aspirations, technology, community-wide communication, social media, etc. It's a good time to check your friendships as you've been feeling a sense of loss because of a particular one of your friends or a group. You might choose to cut ties, fight, or simply ignore the problem and allow it to come to bite you when Mercury goes retrograde. Focus on healing, self-reflection, and journaling because your water houses are going to be most active (4th, 8th, and 12th house) which adds a sense of finality, nostalgia, and loss to the situation. Knowing you, you've had a lot to deal with and these changes are necessary to purge all the bad influences from your life.
🌸 Sagittarius:
During this new moon, there will be a focus on your career developments which will be squared by your relationship, and long-term commitments/promises. So, if you have plans to develop your career, they will be impeded by a long-term social commitment and you will need to make a choice that'll impact the next 7 months. The majority of you will be choosing to focus on your career and will acknowledge that this commitment was put in your life to teach relevant skills which would help your career down the line. Rest assured that things will be working out after a bit of a tense period. Just like Pisces, you are encouraged to merely observe and let the facts come to you instead of focusing too much on the principle of how things are playing out.
🌸 Capricorn:
This new moon is going to impact your 9th house. I suspect that it is part of a broader struggle you've had with your living circumstances and your sense of privacy. You might be reconsidering your major, or you might be considering relocating to facilitate your learning experience. This also indicates to me that you are planting seeds and educating yourself for the next 6 months or 1.5 years to reach a long-term goal related to travel, higher education, coaching, tutoring, publishing, international relations and affairs, international trade, or philosophy. This is a career-focused new moon with numerous decisions to be made. Plan accordingly and make sure that when the earth grand trine happens the following day, you are ready to release emotional baggage and limiting beliefs that you've let fester for too long.
🌸 Aquarius:
Much of a similar message to Capricorns is going to be relevant in your case as well. However, you need to release the emotional baggage you've held on to as a result of the harsh transits you've faced this year. Your health has suffered and you have distracted yourself through overindulgence in some cases. This new moon is telling you to focus on your mental health, and settle any debts (financial, emotional, moral) with yourself and others so that you can make the most of this transit.
🌸 Pisces:
A 7th house new moon tells me that you might enter a new phase in your relationship. You might resolve a conflict early on (Mars). This new moon also boosts your ability to socialize for the sake of getting a job or interview! With Neptune opposing this new moon and mars squaring it, I'd say that it'll be a bit of a tough one for you but it will illuminate lots of things that you have been wondering about for some time now. Stay indoors and observe. You're going to gain clarity.

☀️ASTRO-OBSERVATIONS - Part 2☀️
Trigger warning: trauma, sex, STI, health issues.
Mars in the 6th house placements are amazing at crafts. They love using their hands and trying different tools. They generally will like building things, repairing appliances, or even creating systems to take care of their health. These people will need to watch out for any stomach-related issues.
However, the crafts-esque elements are boosted if Mars is in Capricorn because this allows the expression of Mars to be more positive (Mars is exalted in Capricorn). The reason I say this is because Mars is a malefic, so it can bring accidents, poor health, and bad luck when it is weak in the chart, i.e. when it is in Libra, Taurus, or Cancer. 
Speaking of a “weak” Mars, when we have Mars in Libra, Pisces, or Taurus, it does not mean that the person is weak. It means that Mars’s expression in the chart can create issues that reduce one’s ability to assert themselves.
With a Taurus Mars, you have weak boundaries and might be prone to overindulging yourself or overworking yourself for others. Throat issues are prominent as well as an inability to defend oneself.
The same is for Libra Mars whereby they struggle to assert themselves in social situations, making conclusive decisions in their lives, and can leave loose ends. They are also prone to allow complacency to drag issues that could’ve been resolved with firmer boundaries and stricter words. Libra Mars people also might have issues with: bladder, kidneys, and lower back pain. 
Pisces Mars or Mars-Neptune aspects are easily manipulated, they are overly reactive and misdirect their aggression. We need to keep in mind that Mars also rules the art of war and strategy. As such, the Neptunian elements cloud one's Mars from manifesting positively and constructively (Mars also rules engineering and building!). This can also indicate a weakened immune system, low energy levels, and a tendency to be a pushover in some circumstances while blowing up irrationally at the wrong time.
I noticed this in some charts: having Virgo in the 8th house can indicate catching an STI or being wounded from sex. 
Venus-Mars: the family might have intervened in your relationships to sabotage them or oppose them. This gives a sense of always having to fight for your relationships.
Venus-Saturn: this also might manifest as a father figure or society at large generally opposing your relationships as well. it can also mean that you don't show your feminine side when in society or in front of family members. You prefer to keep it to yourself and express your sensuality privately or through sublimation (high art, literature, poetry, etc.)
Sun-Pluto aspects are intense, they could either mean that your father is very powerful and you don’t know the nature of his work or can indicate that a person was exploited or controlled leaving them feeling traumatized and feeling like your identity is stained by what happened to you. The thing about pluto aspects is that they leave you feeling stained with lots of shame, self-doubt, and embarrassment but the key to managing these events or transits is to see how these transformative occurrences showed you your own ability to heal yourself and others.
Scorpios enter your life when you need them the most— whether for better or for worse. They enter your life to show you the truth of something and they tell you where you need to heal the most. 
Geminis have a bad reputation but they enter your life to teach you flexibility. They are very intelligent, socially aware, and witty. We can learn a lot from their cleverness and the way they express themselves and engage others. The same goes for Virgos. Virgos manifest this mercurial energy in the way they organize their minds, space, and life. Virgos embody Mercury through tools that facilitate our lives with their simplicity.
Aries enters your life when you need to make a conclusive decision in your life. They embolden you to move forward and teach you to ruthlessly cut off other options and loose ends. The same goes for Capricorns. 
Having Venus at 29 degrees is a sign that you are very capable of anticipating the other person’s responses, i.e. you’re a good flirt and can see how things will unfold when pursuing a romantic partner or a business venture (because Venus also rules how we make money). 
Thanks for reading💕🌸
