Take A Chance

Aries season can be one of impulsivity, but that might now always be a bad thing.  When the Sun conjuncts Jupiter this week, it could just work to your advantage.

Venus this week enters the sign of Gemini on April 11 at 12:47 am.  Venus is going to enjoy talking things out and writing.  You may want to be more social than usual and ask lots of questions.  However, Gemini is also the sign of duality, so remember there could be another side to things or they could come in twos.
 
The Sun in Aries also conjuncts Jupiter in Aries on April 11 at 6:07 pm.  Jupiter expands whatever the Sun is shining a light on.  This may be a time to try something new or act in a way that you might not normally do.  Take a chance this week.  There is a tendency to think that by trying something new, the worst is always going to happen, but sometimes everything you want is on the other side of trying.  Don’t let fear hold you back.  Become a warrior and seek what you want.
 
Venus in Gemini will square Saturn in Pisces on April 14 at 12:38 pm.  Venus may feel a little restricted by Saturn.  She may not feel quite like herself or talk quite as much.  You feel stuck in your head and like you just feel adrift.  Remember it’s a transit and it’s temporary.
 
The energy has been challenging the last few weeks.  There is a kind of push-and-pull dynamic going on.  You may feel like you’re constantly taking two steps forward and one step back, but eventually, you will arrive at your destination.  Keep going and take chances.  Life is meant to be lived.

Productive Until You Aren’t

Mercury changes signs this week and communication should become clear and concise, but will it?

Mercury moves into the sign of Taurus on April 3 at 12:22 pm.  Taurus is the sign of calm, stability, and patience, but if you look at the shadow side of Taurus it can also be materialistic, possessive, and stubborn.  Taurus isn’t represented by the bull for no reason at all.  So communication should become clear and concise while it resides in the sign of Taurus, but will it?  Taurus can be a determined sign but will that work to your advantage?
 
Mercury has its first aspect after switching signs a couple of hours later.  Mercury will square Pluto in Aquarius at 2:55 pm.  This is Mercury and Pluto’s first meeting since both planets changed signs.  They’re coming up with a new game plan.  Once the plan and your focus have been decided, Mercury will begin to distribute the plan to all of the other planets.  Aquarius is a sign that is focused on the community and technology, but it can also be one that is forward-thinking.  What are you thinking ahead towards?
 
The last significant aspect of the week is the Sun in Aries Conjunct Chiron in Aries on April 5 at 6:18 pm.  The Sun in warrior mode meets the wounded healer.  What healing do you still need to focus on?  There is something that you still need to heal in order to move forward with your goals in life.  This is the time to examine those inner wounds and see if you can make a little progress in healing them.
 
Remember this week that it can seem like your life should be this way.  Everything could be lining up one moment, and your plan is off the rails the next.  It’s ok.  Life’s journey isn’t a straight line, there are twists and turns.  Go with the flow and see what happens as a result, but keep in mind that productivity is still important.  You want to accomplish things!  Don’t stop when you’re just about to cross the finish line.

Time for Energy Shifts

There are 4 planetary sign changes coming this week, so be prepared for the energy shifts.  The astrological new year and spring also both officially arrive this week.  Yay!  Are you ready for spring?

Two planets will enter the sign of Aries, Mercury, and the Sun.  Mercury goes first on March 19 at 12:24 am.  Be ready for your conversations and thinking to take on a new tone.  They have the potential to be more energetic, quick, and direct, but they can also be more impatient and aggressive.  The Sun will enter the sign of Aries on March 20 at 5:24 pm.  The Sun will bring a new beginning.  If you’ve been thinking about being a pioneer, this is a great time to initiate something new.
 
Pluto will test the waters in the sign of Aquarius starting on March 23 at 8:13 am.  Aquarius is an air sign that prefers the logical and scientific side of thinking.  It can also be idealistic, independent, and objective.  Aquarius also governs technology and community.  Technology and community may become part of the societal focus until it shifts next in 2043 (Pluto will retrograde back into Capricorn from June 11 to January 20).
 
Finally, Mars leaves the sign of Gemini where it has been since August, and enters the sign of Cancer on March 25 at 7:45 am.  Mars will tap into his supportive side until July 1.  You may want to spend more time working on domestic matters or being more nurturing.   
 
Remember this is a lot of energy, so take some time out for yourself.  Rest and relax.  It can be tempting to be impulsive, especially with the Aries energy, but if you need a time out, take it.  Remember to take care of yourself first.

Are you Exhausted?

Have you just been feeling exhausted lately?  You have nothing left to give even though you have so much to do.  You’re not alone.   Unfortunately, the energy this week will leave you feeling the same way.  Exhausted, stressed and confused.  Like all things in life, this is just a chapter, and it too will be coming to a close, but first boundaries are important.

This week’s energy includes a lot of Pisces energy.  This can be a great time for creativity, but it can also make you want to escape from reality.  The world is a confusing place and you just want it to stay the same.  You want to know what’s going on.  You will, but not quite yet.
 
Mars in Gemini will square Neptune in Pisces on March 14 at 7;39 pm.  Mars has been having some trouble getting traction and is still having to do things twice.  This square might get something moving, but it could be a challenge to want to get moving.  The next day, the Sun in Pisces conjuncts Neptune in Pisces at 7:39 pm.  This could be an opportunity to be creative and tap into your artistic side.
 
March 16 there’s a lot of energy, so it could be stressful and lead to your exhaustion.  Mercury in Pisces will conjunct Neptune in Pisces at 1:13 pm.  Be kind with your words.  Have compassion for your fellow humans.  People seem to be at their breaking point.  The Sun in Pisces will Square Mars in Gemini at 2:10 pm.  Mars just wants to go and get something done and may get frustrated.  Venus in Aries is Square Pluto in Capricorn at 3:59 pm.  Venus is checking in with Pluto one last time before its move into Aquarius on March 23.  Is there one last detail that you need to feel before the energy switches?  The day ends with Venus entering Taurus at 6;34 pm.  Venus will be moving into her ruling planets.  She feels at home in the safety, security, and beauty of Taurus. 
 
On March 17 at 12:49 am, Mercury in Pisces will Square Mars in Gemini.  Is there a conversation that needs to take place so that you can begin to move forward?
 
Here are some takeaways from this Gemini- Pisces energy.  Be curious.  Gemini loves to learn.  It can be challenging to do things multiple times, but know that each time will teach you something.  Pisces loves the mystical and spiritual aspects of life, but it also craves time alone.  Take some time to rest this week.  Get plenty of sleep.  Your body needs the rest, take it.  There’s nothing wrong with taking some time for yourself.

Rose-Colored Glasses

The end of Aquarius season is drawing near and Pisces season is almost upon you.  It will be time to tap into the empathic, compassionate, and spiritual side of life.  The Sun will enter Pisces on February 18 at 5:34 p.m.

Although the Sun hasn’t entered Pisces yet, Venus and Neptune are both there and are meeting on February 15 at 7:25 am.  Venus loves hanging out in the sign of Pisces and can tap into her romantic side.  She can float away while dreaming and escaping and Neptune is right there with her.  Neptune will take the opportunity to escape, dream and imagine.  This is definitely a day where you are likely to see the world through rose-colored glasses, so it can be challenging if you’re searching for clarity.

The Sun in Aquarius will visit Saturn in Aquarius one last time on February 16 at 11:48 am before Saturn moves into Pisces on March 7.  This is an opportunity to check in and make sure that you’re on track before Saturn changes signs.  What have you been meant to learn while Saturn has been in Aquarius?  Are you ready to move on?  The answer as to what you’re supposed to learn is different for each person and is dependent on your own natal chart.  The sign of Aquarius can also hold a sense of idealism but can be used if you need some objectivity.
 
This is a time of ending patterns and wrapping up cycles, so use this week to your advantage.  Dream a little.  Try to find the best in the world, I know it can be challenging.  What contribution can you bring to make the world just a little bit better?

Polarity of Needs

Have you ever noticed that sometimes just when you decide that it’s time for you to take some time for yourself, some need comes along that directs your attention in another way?  That may happen when the Full Moon in Leo arrives on February 5 at 1;29 pm.
 
The Moon in Leo is all about having fun and wants the attention to be focused on you and your needs, but the Sun in Aquarius is more focused on the needs of others, your family, your friends, or just the collective at large.  Are you the type of person that puts your needs last?  Maybe it’s because you’re a mother and that’s expected.  Or maybe you’re the type of person that has a hard time speaking up for themselves and thinks that what you want isn’t as important as what others want or need.  The truth is that it doesn’t really matter what the reason is, but the fact that you put yourself after others’ needs are met. 
 
There’s nothing that says this dynamic is going to change overnight, but it has to start somewhere in order for it to change.  In order for you to give to others, you must have the energy to give.  I’m guessing that’s not always the case for you.  You may even feel like you’re running on fumes.  So today let’s start and give it to you.  What do you want?  Maybe you want to read a book, take a walk, exercise, eat healthier, the list goes on and on of possible options.  Pick one thing that you want for yourself today and give yourself permission to do it.  There’s nothing wrong with taking time for yourself.
 
Mercury will move out of the sign of Capricorn and enter the sign of Aquarius on February 11 at 6:22 am.  Mercury will speak more logically, analytically, and detachedly for the next zodiacal period.  It’s time to think things through.  How can you work with what you want and need to help meet the needs of others wants and needs?  There must be a logical solution.  Sometimes you just need to think outside of the box and the Aquarius energy loves to think outside of the box.  Aquarius energy is great for looking into the future and coming up with different possibilities.  Harness the energy and use it to your advantage.

Dream A Little Dream

The Sun is in Aquarius until February 18.  It’s the time of year when you can let your idealism shine and be in a state of mind that is more logical and scientific.  You can detach yourself a little bit from the anticipated outcomes.  On February 3 at 9:50 pm, the Sun in Aquarius will Square Uranus in Taurus.  The Sun will have a conflict with the planet of awakenings in the sign of stability and practicality.
 
The Sun is currently in an Air sign and wants to be intellectual, but Uranus is in an Earth sign and is focused on more worldly matters.  Which sign will win?  Only time will tell.
 
Venus in Pisces meets Mars in Gemini on February 4 at 10:29 pm.   Venus loves being in the sign of Pisces.  She can romanticize and dream, but Mars is still in the sign of Gemini.  Mars is trying to take action but is having difficulty in the sign of Gemini.  It has to fight a sense of duality and communicativeness when all it wants to do is go.  Mars is still finding that it may have to do things twice in order to accomplish its goals, but it’s getting closer all the time.  One day you could wake up and have taken steps little by little, you could be on the precipice of a new life.
 
What is your dream?  You must have one.  What do you want your life to look like in 5, 10, or 15 years?  All of your dreams don’t have to happen overnight, they can happen in stages, but it’s important to dream.

Running In Idle

Mars stationed direct last week, so why am I still in limbo?  Mercury and Uranus are still retrograde and clarifying the situation, but things will move a little bit more when Mercury in Capricorn stations to go direct on January 18 at 8:12 am.
 
How has this Mercury retrograde been for you?  Have you been getting little fixes and clarifications or are you getting some major downloads?  That depends on you and whether you’ve been doing the work.  Pluto is nearing the end of its stay in Capricorn and is having its last communications with Mercury before it signs off.  Have you been adjusting your structures?   Are there any additional changes that need to be made?  Pluto wants to know.  The Sun in Capricorn is checking in one last time with Pluto in Capricorn on January 18 at 9:44 am.  Pay attention to the necessary changes this week.  Uranus will station direct on January 22 and then there will be no retrograde planets.  It’s almost time!
 
The Sun will enter Aquarius on January 20 at 3:30 am.  It’s time to start thinking ahead and become more intellectual and logical about your plans. 
 
Sometimes in order to go forwards you have to look back.  It’s something that you’d probably prefer to not have to do and a lot of self-help gurus will tell you to avoid it and just have a positive mindset, but the truth is that you have to dig through the muck to find a diamond.  It doesn’t just appear.  Pluto transits are some of the most challenging transits that you will face, but you’re meant to walk away with something at the end.  Over the next few months, you will begin to see what Pluto in Capricorn has taught you about yourself.  There will be an adjustment period when Pluto retrogrades (May 1 to October 10), but you’re nearing the end of the finish line in some area of your life.  What do you still need to do?  This is the time to get clarity and plan for those edits.  Waiting doesn’t always make it better, it can sometimes be harder.  Just rip off the band-aid and see what happens.

New Year, New You

Wow!  It’s another year already.  Time seems to fly sometimes.  There have been lots of changes over the last few years and 2023 will be no exception.  You had some time last week to reflect on the past year.  Now, what do you want to do with that information?  If you aren’t already making changes, are you ready to make them now?
 
The first transit of 2023 starts just after midnight at 12:25 am, when Venus in Capricorn conjuncts Pluto in Capricorn.  Pluto in Capricorn has been changing our lives' structures since 2009 and is getting ready to move into the sign of Aquarius in a few months.  Venus is checking in one more time.  Does she have anything to contribute to making your structure more beautiful?
 
On January 2 at 11:02 am, the Sun in Capricorn squares Chiron in Aries.  Are you ready to take action on changing the structure of your wounds from the past?  It’s never easy to address your wounds, but it is essential to your capacity to grow.  To truly become empowered, you have to go back and address the underbelly of your life.  It’s easier to just keep going.  You think it will just go away if you ignore it, but has it truly gone away?  If you’re honest with yourself, it’s still there, isn’t it?  Your biggest fears are still there waiting for you to address them.  Maybe it’s time to look at them differently.
 
Also on January 2 at 9:09 pm, Venus enters the sign of Aquarius.  Venus wants to explore the collective and examine it in a different way.  Can your life be beautiful in a different way than it was before?  Can you look at it from a new perspective and see the whole picture?  What’s the end result that you’re striving for?
 
The Sun in Capricorn is also revisiting a previous conversation with Mercury when it conjuncts it again on January 7 at 7:57 am.  What were you thinking about in early to mid-December?  That conversation is going to be revisited
 
Each year has new energy and this one is no exception.  You’re another year and another year wiser, but who are you?  If you don’t already know, maybe this is the year to start that exploration.

Impulsivity vs. Patience

There will be two sign changes this week, which will demonstrate the tension between acting impulsively and having the patience to gather information before leaping to conclusions.
 
Jupiter will re-enter the sign of Aries on December 20 at 9:32 am.  Aries is the sign of spontaneity, idealism, directness, and independence.  The Sun will enter Capricorn on December 21 at 4:48 pm.  Capricorn is the sign of patience, realism, practicality, and efficiency.  The Sun in Capricorn will then Square Jupiter in Aries a couple of hours later at 7:50 pm creating tension between the two signs.
 
Which energy do you need to rely on to get you what you want?  Both energies have their uses, but you can’t react both impulsively and patiently at the same time.  It’s just not possible, but the energy between the two could force you to react differently than you previously have. 
 
It’s the week leading up to Christmas.  If you enter a store, you will most likely see this energy in full swing.  Those people who are finishing up their shopping.  They have just a few more items left to get and then they can enjoy the holidays vs. those people who haven’t started yet.  The people who haven’t started yet may be looking for whatever item they can find on the shelves.
 
As an adult, I don’t tend to act impulsively often and in terms of Christmas shopping, I plot and plan. I’m normally done shopping right around Thanksgiving.  Now I will mention that I don’t have as many items to purchase as some other people.  My father has improved a lot over the years, but growing up he had one person to buy for, my mom.  So on Christmas Eve, I would climb in the car and we would go to Bradlee’s and see what we could find that my mother might want.  Not an ideal situation, but it's one with which many of you are probably familiar.  The energy was always crazy in the stores on Christmas Eve.  The energy was the same way in the grocery store when I worked there as a teenager.  People race around to get every last item that they need before the stores close. 
 
This is the energy that you’re going to see all around you.  Those people who are thinking methodically.  What steps do they need to take to achieve the desired result?  And those people who are just grabbing whatever they can find.
