Alright, so listen up, I gotta tell you about this thing I dove into back in 2021. You know how sometimes you just get this itch, this little nagging thought in the back of your head? Well, for me, it was all about understanding my own vibe, especially after things got so wild in 2020. I kept hearing people talk about moon signs and how they really hit your emotional core, not just your sun sign. And my moon? Pisces. So, I figured, “Why not?” I decided I was gonna track those Pisces Moon sign monthly horoscopes for the whole year of 2021 and see what the heck was up.
I started this whole thing with absolutely zero plan, just a hunch. I wasn’t an astrology expert, didn’t even know much beyond my basic zodiac sign. But I knew 2020 had been a blur, and I wanted to be more present in 2021, to feel things more intentionally. So, I grabbed an old, slightly beat-up notebook – one of those cheap spiral ones – and a pen. That was my official “recording studio,” if you will.
First step, naturally, was to dig around online. I wasn’t looking for some fancy scientific journal, just honest-to-goodness interpretations. I typed in stuff like “Pisces Moon horoscope January 2021,” “emotional forecast Pisces moon,” “what’s up with Pisces Moon next month.” I hit up a bunch of different sites – some big, well-known ones, some smaller blogs. I wasn’t trying to find the “definitive” answer, just trying to get a feel for the general consensus. It was a real mix, let me tell ya. Some were all rainbows and sunshine, others were like, “brace yourself for major emotional tidal waves.” I just read through ’em, trying to catch the common threads.
Then came the real “practice” part. For each month, I’d scribble down what seemed to be the main themes or warnings or opportunities for my Pisces Moon. I didn’t get too detailed; I just wanted the gist. So for January, it might be something like, “focus on dreams, maybe some confusion around boundaries.” For February, “creative surge, but watch out for escapism.” You get the picture. I wasn’t just copying and pasting; I was trying to translate it into my own simple terms, terms I actually understood without a degree in cosmic alignments.
Once I had those little bullet points for the month, I just let them sit. I didn’t revisit them every day, that would’ve been too much. Instead, at the end of each month, or sometimes halfway through, I’d pull out that grubby notebook. I’d look at my notes, and then I’d just think back over the past few weeks. What had really happened? How did I feel? Was there any connection, however faint, to what I had jotted down?
- I tracked my emotional swings: Pisces Moons are known for being sensitive, right? So, if a horoscope mentioned “emotional ups and downs” or “feeling overwhelmed,” I’d check if I actually experienced that. I’d mark a little “Y” for yes, “N” for no, or “Kinda” if it was debatable.
- I paid attention to my dreams: A lot of Pisces stuff revolves around dreams and intuition. If a forecast suggested paying attention to dreams, I’d make a conscious effort to recall them when I woke up. I didn’t write down the dreams themselves, just if they felt “significant” or “weird” or “totally blank.”
- I noted creative bursts or blocks: Being creative is a big Pisces trait. So if a month was supposed to be a “period of inspiration,” I’d notice if I suddenly felt like drawing or writing more. Conversely, if it warned of “creative stagnation,” I’d see if I just felt… flat.
- Relationships and boundaries were a big one: Pisces Moons can struggle with boundaries. So, if the horoscopes touched on relationships, codependency, or needing to protect my energy, I’d reflect on how my interactions with people had gone. Did I feel drained? Did I stand my ground?
It wasn’t always a perfect match, not by a long shot. There were plenty of months where I’d read my notes, look at my life, and just shrug. “Nah, didn’t really happen,” I’d write. Or, “This was supposed to be a good month for intuition, but I just felt confused.” Sometimes, though, sometimes it was uncanny. There’d be a forecast about feeling super empathetic and wanting to help everyone, and I’d remember that week I spent doing extra favors for friends, almost to my own detriment. Or a warning about needing alone time, and I’d realize I’d been feeling completely drained from too much social interaction.
What I really learned from this whole year-long little experiment wasn’t necessarily that horoscopes are 100% accurate or some magic crystal ball. What it did was force me to actually reflect on my own feelings and experiences more regularly. Instead of just letting life happen to me, I was actively looking for patterns, checking in with my emotional state, and seeing if there was any resonance with these general cosmic vibes. It made me more aware of my own Pisces Moon tendencies – that pull towards the spiritual, the emotional sensitivity, the occasional urge to just escape reality.
By the end of 2021, that notebook was a mess of scribbles, “Y”s, “N”s, question marks, and little personal notes. It wasn’t clean data, it wasn’t scientific, but it was my record. And it gave me a much deeper, albeit messy, understanding of how my inner world worked, and how powerful just a little bit of monthly introspection can be.
