ASTROLOGY FORECAST
(Mar 17 - 24)
This week begins with VENUS and MARS moving out of the range of the conjunction they traveled in since late January. During that time you might have had some relationship issues arise. There may also have been some adjustments to the male/female balance within yourself. Completion is not necessary, rather the attention to any imbalances that may have shown up. You will now be able to create something better.
VENUS moves into a conjunction with SATURN that will continue through 3/29. Venus is exalted in Pisces adding a very good ingredient to the joining with Saturn. The combination can bring structure to talents and the artistic nature. Relationships may be more practical and austere than Venus might like. The key could be to think of this interval as a good foundation to carry forward to a time when more flair and flamboyance is favored, and can benefit from a solid base. It might even be the case that the previous conjunction with Mars gives Venus the marching orders to lay a new, better foundation to work on with Saturn's assistance.
The SUN is conjunct NEPTUNE through 3/25. The Sun is your core essence and when it conjuncts Neptune in Pisces you have a potential to transform your life by bringing your dreams to fruition. In addition, the nebulous ancient memory in your DNA can be stimulated during this transit. What do you “know” instinctively, and what might you be able to create as this ancient knowledge is stimulated?
The SUN moves into Aries on 3/19 at 11:06 pm EST. This also is the Spring Equinox in the northern hemisphere. This is the beginning of a new cycle for all of us.
We start a fresh trip around the zodiac each year on the Spring Equinox. Aries is highly energetic and youthful. Ideas and vigor are refreshed. It is an individual type of energy, a yearly boost for your own creations where you can explore and express your own unique signature. This year, 2024, has many transits to support you. We have discussed Pluto quite a bit already. There is another transit of great power and interest this Spring. JUPITER has moved into conjunction with URANUS.
This alignment only happens every 14 years, and not since 1941 in Taurus. Jupiter is about abundant expansion and Uranus is revolutionary in nature. Taurus has connections to finances, basic abundance, the Earth and our sustenance that comes from its bounty. Stubbornness can be a native trait. That quality is not suited to this transit. Uranus breaks blocks in a sudden way, so resistance is not favored at this time.
This rare arc of alignment has begun, peaks at exact conjunction on 4/20, and continues in the arc of effectiveness until 6/24. This will be in effect during two eclipses, one being a rare “Ring of Fire” total eclipse in the USA on 4/08.
To say this is potent is an understatement! Our bodies are electrical and Uranus is associated with that kind of stimulus. The abundance and luck that Jupiter contributes joins the equation making for profound possibilities. This can be personal, but is also likely to be widespread as Uranus is one of the generational planets whose transits affect entire societies.
There are a few beneficial SEXTILES beginning on 3/20:
VENUS/JUPITER - (through 4/07) - significantly ramps up good luck.
PLUTO sextile the conjunct SUN/NEPTUNE - Sun sextile Pluto brings great resourcefulness, willpower, and endurance. Neptune added to the sextile brings in added imagination and vision.
MARS moves into Pisces on 3/22, joining SATURN, VENUS, and NEPTUNE to continue the series of powerful stelliums that has been a repeated pattern in 2024. MARS shows a high level of compassion and cooperation in Pisces. This is a perfect opportunity to release resistance if there are places where you have previously been stubborn. Mars can exhibit amazing, effective strength in a very refreshing way in Pisces- especially in this year with the favorable shifts in so many alignments.
May you begin this time around the zodiac with great excitement and anticipation. You are very likely to be happy with the results. May you find your Godspeed.
ASTROLOGY FORECAST
(Mar 25 - 31)
The year's first LUNAR ECLIPSE is on 3/25 at 3:00 am EST at 5° Libra. This is the 3rd eclipse on the Libra/Aries axis.
The eclipses always fall on the lunar nodes. These are the North and South Nodes or the head and tail of the Dragon. Many find them intimidating, but the alignment can always give you a unique opportunity to find an ideal balance in your life. I encourage you to think of eclipse events as a magical love letter from your soul and creation itself, however you think of the source.
The North node represents your goals, aspirations and the South node your gifts, as well as your challenges. The eclipse puts an incredibly powerful beam of light between them that can allow a perfect balance. The SUN and the MOON are the physical objects that shine down on us to signal this momentous gift each year. They hold space for the advancements of entire lifetimes - if you allow them to happen! Grab on to that assistance.
The Libra/Aries axis can bring the balance, justice, and humanity that Libra always aspires to into a lovely combination with Aries youthful, energetic way of approaching life. May you be refreshed in the most inspiring way. This eclipse is the warm- up for the next one when the Sun and Moon are conjunct in Aries on 4/08.
We will not see the Moon obstructed during this eclipse, only shadowed in the America's, but it remains potent nonetheless.
There are a few favorable aspects present on eclipse day. SATURN is sextile the JUPITER/URANUS conjunction. This is another quite rare aspect that brings balance and opportunity between the outer planets that influence entire populations. This particular one finds a balance and practicality to some new developments that may be coming. This can work in your personal favor as well. It will help us “stick the landing.”
PLUTO is Trine the MOON on the 25th. This helps emotional control, courage, and determination across the masses. We can all collectively hold space for the best in each of us to emerge.
PALLAS turns retrograde at 8° Sagittarius on 3/29. She will be retrograde through 7/11/24. She will retreat into Scorpio on 5/17/24. This review, of sorts will be in our strategic thinking and intelligence. In Sagittarius it gets a review on the typical expansive, farseeing and reaching ideals. Are they correct, or are adjustments called for? Allow the great intellect of PALLAS to guide you. When she retreats back to Scorpio after the approaching eclipse season, she will pick up a great deal of intensity and drive to incorporate into the plans for the rest of 2024. Scorpio will likely love the coming changes.
Two nights later the MOON is Trine MARS. This aspect combines strength with imagination. The resulting action can find a wonderful balance, and with all the other fantastic elements present at the moment, we have a lot to look forward to.
The MOON next Trines with VENUS on the 29th. This combines grace, beauty, and significantly helps the divine feminine in all of us find her expression. The renewed balance is ongoing.
VESTA moves into Cancer on 3/31. She is the expression and sign/house location of your sacred flame, the homing signal of your soul essence. In Cancer, VESTA expresses the purest of the home, or hearth fires. Reverence for family, friends, or any group is strong in Cancer. She exhibits great devotion wherever she is placed.
A review of the star activity in 2024 so far reveals a significant turn in the fortunes of humanity. We have exited the challenging squares present between many planets and Pluto from 2020-2023, and the squares present with Pluto on every eclipse in 2023. The outer planets are forming much more positive aspects now and the sign placements will continue to improve. Opportunity awaits us. May you all find grace and elegance walking beside you on the journey.
