MONDAY - Mercury into Pisces, Venus sextile Saturn
WEDNESDAY - Venus square Galactic Center, Mercury sextile Uranus
FRIDAY - Venus into Aries, Ceres squares Uranus
SATURDAY - Mercury trine North Node
SUNDAY - Full Moon in Leo, Venus conjunct Chiron
Another powerful week with multiple inner planets changing signs - this will impact us personally as well as collectively - and a big Full Moon,
plus something to keep in mind - Mercury starts walking the degrees he/she will walk back and forth over during her upcoming retrograde - so the news and conversations, the stuff that is playing out NOW (
for some Mercury will highlight sibling, local community, transportation, computer/communication situations) will be an indicator of what we will be dealing with
for many weeks.
This week is the first pass, and sometimes the first pass only looks important in
hindsight. With most of this retrograde happening in illusive Pisces, our best play may be to stay flexible, connected and compassionate. Know everything isn't as it appears to be, but trust that "Pisces magic" has our back now.
Also, we have three indicators this week of important messages coming through so WE NEED TO BE PAYING ATTENTION.
Whenever I am looking at a chart and especially a natal chart and I see something once, well it may or may not mean anything important. If I see it twice, I take note and if it shows up three times (
multiple aspects indicating something similar) then I know I am seeing something important.
On
MONDAY - Venus sextiles Saturn - this is in play through the beginning of the week. There could be a real deal opportunity here - something solid and lasting. Good for dealing with authority, making a commitment, stepping into our own authority, working with a mentor/someone older, etc. This is an opportunistic connection between our Cappy house and our Pisces house. Keep in mind Venus - ruler of money, love, our values and self-esteem - is EXALTED in Pisces.
The dream is real. The love is real. The money is real.
Look for the open door.
On the same day Mercury leaves airy Aquarius for watery Pisces - now the Sun is all alone in Aquarius - boy that was fast, wasn't it! Mercury, ruler of Pisces polarity sign of Virgo is in her/his detriment in Pisces.
At the same time Mercury is moving into Pisces, the Moon is moving into Gemini (
ruled by Mercury) and this means Mercury and the Moon are squaring each other as they shift.
Our thinking changes. Dots get connected. Our intuition strengthens.
But at the same time our boundaries are down.
This makes me think of the corona-virus so we may get news of this spreading (
with Mercury, ruler of health via Virgo going back and forth through "no boundaries" Pisces, over the next couple months we could see more of this spreading) - BUT remember what we talked about during the eclipses and what happened
then being a foreshadowing of our next six months - stuff seeming very alarming, very fast and then petering out, so we will have to see. Mercury rules Gemini as well as Virgo and ideas and information can spread with Mercury in Pisces, too, not just germs!
Keep in mind Virgo's Mercury likes things clear and concise - she wants B to follow A and
is sure things would move more efficiently if everyone would just dot their i's and cross their t's. Pisces (
ruled by Neptune and ruler of our collective 12th house) is the space where rules/boundaries are more fluid. B might follow A. But just as easily A could drift right on past B.
It is the space of imagination, universal love, our dreams, spirituality, our connection to each other through the ethereal realms and our emotions, the ways we escape, the things we do
last, the things we put away, addictions, delusions, hospitals, prisons, addicts, victims, saviors, martyrs.
You can see how fast-moving Mercury could be a bit out-of-whack here.
So maybe our thinking slows down a bit. Our words drift off course. We started to say this and then we are saying that. The words that were so clear and crisp in airy Aquarius, don't come as easily because maybe we start
feeling their impact on the other person now. Or maybe we start feeling like one of those old anti-drug commercials but instead of eggs - it is our brain frying on the sidewalk.
Details might be fuzzy. Our thinking might be, too.
With Pisces ruler of the last house of the zodiac maybe a conversation comes to an
end now. Our natal Pisces house - what house has Pisces on the cusp in your natal chart? - a space we are naturally inclined to more dreamy, Piscean ways - suddenly WAKES UP.
Our attention goes
there.
This is wonderful energy for artists, poets, musicians, meditation, spirituality, healing. With Mercury (
ruler of Gemini) in this universal space our words can cast even more powerful S-P-E-L-L-S - keep this in mind.
As our cognitive thinking slows down, our intuition speeds up. With Mercury in Pisces - it's time to LISTEN.
Due to her upcoming retrograde Mercury will be in Pisces until April 11th.
With the Moon in Gemini early this week we will be busy. Errands. Things to do. Decisions to be made. New choices/new information.
On
WEDNESDAY - Mercury, who has had a couple days to get his feet wet in Pisces by now, will sextile (
opportunity) Uranus in Taurus.
We could get unexpected (good) news. Conversations will be forward/future leaning. We are thinking outside the box. Having flashes of genius. Wake up calls and unexpected solutions/understanding are possible now. Good surprises are possible.
At the same time, Venus, at the very end of Pisces, is squaring the Galactic Center (
black hole at the center of our Galaxy,. seat of creation) - we will have to see/feel how this plays out for us, but I would suspect, coming at the same time as the Mercury/Uranus - we could be dealing with something that puts our back against the wall to give us something to push against if we are needing to move in a new direction.
It's time, and fast approaching PAST time, to be focusing on what we have gained rather than what we have lost.
The Moon is in Cancer now - moving our focus to home, family, real estate, home business, family business, mother - and making nice with Mercury in Pisces and Uranus in Taurus.
On
THURSDAY - we have a fast moving emotional water trine. Then the Moon moves into opposition with the Capricorn planets, so there could also be a 'no' with something today or on Friday. Maybe a roadblock or an
ending.
On
FRIDAY - Venus moves from Pisces (
where she has been exalted) into Aries, where she is considered in her detriment (
since she rules Aries polarity sign of Libra). Now we have two of our three inner planets in their detriment.
Aries Suns and ascendants (
first house Aries) become more attractive - both able to attract what they want and easier on the eye. Everyone's Aries house becomes more attractive, too.
In Aries, Venus functions best when she puts herself first. With Venus in Aries, we will need to take into consideration "what's best for me?".
We attract what we want by going after it! By being brave. By having a beginner's mind. Through men and masculine energy.
In Aries, Venus is a WARRIOR (
and love might be a battlefield ... cue Pat Benatar).
Something to keep in mind as we give ourselves permission to go after what we want (
always that fly in the ointment) is the
impulsive nature of Aries. If Venus was
always in Aries our relationships would last 15 minutes and the things we bought/valued would very quickly fall out of favor and we'd be on to the next thing. Maybe not such a good long-haul energetic, but as a transit, ie transitory, Venus in Aries can get on with the business of getting us what we want in a very effective manner. Just keep in mind some of what Venus in Aries accumulates will not be so long-lasting.
Venus will be in Aries until March 4th.
Ceres (
in Aquarius) squares Uranus (
in Taurus). It can be hard to fit in/hard to feel boxed in. A Ceres situation - cycle of life, nurturing, etc or something having to do with our Aquarius natal house theme - could get a shake-up. For the collective this could be some kind of
planetary wake up call.
On
SATURDAY - Mercury trines the North Node (
in Cancer). Here is news/information/a conversation that points us toward our future - a more
authentic future. PAY ATTENTION. This is building all week and at play in Sunday's Full Moon.
Keep your ears and eyes open for a message/messenger. With Mercury in Pisces, this could be
intuitive information. We can understand and glide forward easily. No pushing will be needed.
On
SUNDAY, we have Venus conjunct Chiron (
loving ourselves wounds, warts and all) as the Aquarius Sun opposes the Leo Moon at 20 degrees giving us this month's Full Moon in Leo.
We'll talk about this one in its own post later in the week!
*****
As always keep in mind the bigger picture - Saturn is past Pluto. We are past the death. And past the place in the game where we always died before. Permanent endings. No going back.
Some early Cappy placements still have this to play out as Mars crosses the South Node over the next couple weeks
and we all will be triggered as Mars hits Pluto and the degree of last month's Pluto/Saturn conjunction in
March.
In the meantime this is a big information week - SO PAY ATTENTION.
xo all - will get up the monthly after the Full Moon post!
