    🎙️Ep. 14 — New Moon in Pisces: Tending What's Already Growing

    Join me for a reflection on the New Moon in Pisces on March 18th, 2026 as we move through the final threshold of winter and prepare to step into the astrological new year. This new moon invites us to slow down, tend what’s already growing, and consciously choose where we place our attention — so that when spring arrives, we’re ready to move from fertile, focused soil. I explore what it means to not always plant new seeds, but to cultivate the ones already reaching for light. Drawing on a story from my own garden — five bell pepper plants crowded into one pot — I share how cutting back the excess created space for the remaining plants to truly thrive. This is the medicine of Pisces: knowing what to release so what matters most can be deeply nourished. We also move through the key astrological threads woven into this lunation — Mercury retrograde conjunct the North Node, Mars in Pisces, the New Moon at 28° sextile Uranus in Taurus, Jupiter direct in Cancer, and a touch of esoteric astrology as we explore Pluto as the esoteric ruler of Pisces and the Second Ray of Love and Wisdom. And as Mercury stations direct and the Sun ingresses into Aries on March 20th, we close with an invitation to use these last few days of Pisces season to dream, rest, and button up whatever still needs a little more spaciousness. This episode also offers a few seeds of what’s coming — including Energy in Motion, a free monthly online community gathering for intuition, creativity, and heart-led conversation, and Planetary Transits, a monthly online astrology circle ($22) where we explore the transits through one another’s charts. I hope this reflection serves as a gentle word painting to help you sow your intentions for this new moon. 🌑✨ With Love, Lisette Archer-Barber ♡ This is a public episode.

    Ep. 13 - Virgo Full Moon: Sometimes Nothing Needs to Be Said

    Join me for a reflection on the Virgo Lunar Eclipse and Full Moon on March 3rd as we move through a powerful season of integration and inward presence. This lunar eclipse invites us to listen more deeply — to our bodies, our intuition, and the quiet wisdom that lives beyond words. I explore the themes arising from the Pisces-Virgo eclipse axis — Mercury’s rulership of Virgo and what it truly means to communicate, the art of being present without needing to define or confine our experiences, and the gift of stillness as we navigate collective change. Drawing on a beautiful story from the Japanese art of manifesting, I share how our most challenging storms can deepen our roots and bring forth our most abundant blossoms. (Book reference is Yoshuku by Azumi Uchitani.) We’ll also touch on the key astrological shifts ahead — Jupiter stationing direct on March 10th, Mercury retrograde in Pisces, and the approaching Spring Equinox on March 20th — and how to move through this transitional window with grace, trust, and self-nourishment. This episode offers an invitation to soften, to surrender into inspiration rather than force, and to honor the quiet courage and resilience you’ve already cultivated. I also share details about my upcoming 21-day Liminal Devotion practice beginning March 8th and my one-on-one astrology and embodiment sessions learn more here.
