Today's Astrology Forecast | Tuesday, March 9th, 2021 - getting past a block, talking it out, turning toward the facts


 

The Moon is in Aquarius now - we are nurtured by the unexpected, change, the future, our groups and causes. She trines a multi-tasking Mars in Gemini at 8:22AM EST, sextiles Chiron at 4:42PM EST, squares Aqua co-ruler Uranus at 5:06PM EST and meets up with Aqua's other co-ruler, Saturn, at 7:44PM EST. 

 

Most of the day, spurred by that Mars/Gemini trine will likely be, at least mentally, busy/active. Words, communication, ideas are connecting/forward leaning. In the late afternoon as we move through that healing sextile with Chiron and head into a more frustrating square to Uranus - things could be a bit more bumpy. Independent work will likely go more smoothly than group situations. 


This is also the day Venus (at 15 degrees Pisces), following in the Sun's path from last week, squares the Nodes. The square speaks of tension/frustration. The square to the nodes - a decision point/pivot point/something we need to get past before we can continue. With the South Node in Sag/North in Gemini - this might be about a belief we need to release (and keep in mind, this is Venus standing at the crossroad here, so our relationships, money, values, self-esteem, beauty, women, our natal Libra and Taurus house themes) as we turn toward something more factual, more local, more logical.

 

Maybe we are breaking something big and overwhelming down into multiple more doable things/a process. Maybe we need to release a "fading hope" and ACT (remember Mars is in Gemini, too, now) on the current facts. We are not taking that trip around the world right now, but what can we do? The mountains may be calling our name, but the neighborhood park is actually OPEN. 

 

It might be time to talk about something we have been avoiding - that thing that has turned into the elephant in the living-room. Just having the conversation, rather than letting the thing continue to balloon itself around the coffee table, could be enough. This is a square so will be challenging/not so easy. Check out the lunar times in your area. Maybe you want to avoid that Uranus square around dinner time EST, because whatever you say will seem to the other person to have come out of nowhere. On the other hand maybe that's exactly when the conversation will happen/situation arise. 

 

Venus has some very positive aspects coming up and to be lined up for them we have to get past this. Take some, maybe uncomfortable, action - the Moon in Aqua will help us be more detached/take things less personally and her trine to Mars in Gemini is very supportive.

 

More good news - Mercury in Aquarius is making her third (of three) sextile to Juno at 21 degrees Sagittarius. Something partnership or contract related or related to women is wrapping up. We had this aspect back in mid-January and mid-February. It was exact yesterday. This is another 'third time's the charm' opportunity. If the conversation didn't happen yesterday, if the agreement wasn't hammered out (and no hammering would have been involved) these planets are still in sextile today. Keep in mind Juno is in Sag looking at the greener pastures/needing some hope/optimism, a bigger PLAN and trining (brakes off) the Aqua energies (the future). 


So, we are at a crossroads (Venus as us) needing to have the conversation, look at the facts, use our smarts here. Venus is in Pisces, EXALTED, we are more intuitive now, compassionate, magnetic. Relationship agreements are possible now and they will have been hard-earned. If we are trying to talk to someone about 'facts' and they are in lalaland (and we could as easily be the escape artist in this scenario), it might seem we are not getting very far, but maybe we will be (and just not know it yet) and one way or the other this shouldn't be avoided. 

 

Juno speaks of tending the relationship with optimism/faith. Mercury with 'talk of the future'. Blend this stuff all together and come up with something workable. 

 

Know today's Venus square (which is a repeating pattern from last week's Sun when something 'came to light') says something about love, money, our values or self-esteem needs to be dealt with. Some old belief released. Some new facts/information/conversation leaned into.
