There are times in life when you just act on instinct. You go with your gut simply because it feels right—and you never regret it.

Well, get ready to have a little heart-to-heart with your hunches, because there’s a full moon popping up on September 20, 2021. Called the Full Harvest Moon, it’s happening in the sign of Pisces.

With this full moon comes an undeniable urge you to trust your basic instincts. You won’t question yourself; on the contrary, you’ll feel Beyoncé-level confident about the decisions you’re making, according to Donna Page, a certified astrologer in Atlanta. But, of course, it’s a little more complicated than that.

Here’s what else your zodiac sign can expect from the Full Harvest Moon in Pisces, and how it’ll impact you going forward.

What is the Full Harvest Moon in Pisces?

Quick astronomy refresher: The moon has different phases. When it’s at its biggest, roundest, and brightest self, that's the full moon phase.

The name for this particular full moon comes from a mix of Native American, Colonial American, and European sources. The Full Harvest Moon happens when the full moon rises at nearly the same time for several nights in a row, allowing farmers some extra light at night to finish their harvests before the fall frost arrives, according to The Old Farmer’s Almanac. Cool, right?

Each full moon syncs up with a zodiac sign, and this year’s Full Harvest Moon is in Pisces.

How will the Full Harvest Moon in Pisces impact your zodiac sign?

The biggest takeaway from this astrological event: Tune into the power of listening to your instincts. Like, what is your gut telling you right here, right now?

This will seep into all areas of your life, from how you feel about your work to what exercise routine you want to try next. But where you’ll really feel the impact is in your relationships. Pisces energy makes you want to be compassionate and understand where other people are coming from, but you’ll also have a Spidey sense about why they’re acting the way they do.

Maybe your S.O. is a little grumpy because they’re up against a huge work deadline, or maybe that well-intentioned comment about training for a marathon together to get in better shape rubbed them the wrong way. Whatever the deal, you’ll want to get to the bottom of things to make them better.

But, again, listen to your gut. If you and your partner have been rocky for a bit, you’ll know deep down whether you should keep working on it or if it’s finally time to take a breather.

At the same time, Mercury is sending some harmonious energy your way. You’ll take your time and think before you speak, whether it’s at work, with your buddies, or hanging out with family—avoiding plenty of potential conflict in the process. Well done, you!

All zodiac signs will be impacted by the Full Harvest Moon in Pisces, but Virgo and Pisces will feel it the most, Page says.

How will the Full Harvest Moon in Pisces impact your future?

Here’s the thing: It’s so easy to doubt yourself and your choices in life. But having confidence in the moves you make, and actually knowing deep down that they’re the right ones for you will make a huge, lasting impact on how you approach things going forward. Like, you don’t need to doubt yourself anymore. You—and your gut—got this.

As for thinking before you speak, well…that’s a solid life skill just about everyone could use. Once you see how low-drama your life is when you take a beat before opening your mouth, you’ll do it again and again. And then you’ll have a way smoother time navigating life because of it.

When is the next full moon?

The next full moon is on October 20, 2021 in the sign of Aries. During this full moon, you’ll be a little more rushed than usual. But don’t stress—it’ll all be okay.

In the meantime, revel in the amped-up confidence in yourself. It’s about damn time.
