today's astrology forecast | Sunday, March 13th, 2022 - emotionally flooded, a spotlight on our dreams, boundaries thin, what needs to comes out in the wash will

 

 

The Moon is finishing up in Cancer now. We are nourished/nurtured by home, family, mom and apple-pie. She trines Neptune at 12:24 AM EST and goes void off her monthly opposition to Pluto at 11:44AM EST. She will be void until 3:32PM EST when she moves into Leo.

 

In the meantime, this is the day the Sun meets up with Neptune at 22 degrees Pisces. This, plus the Cancer Moon's opposition to Pluto is likely to make this weekend very EMOTIONAL. We will be feeling what we are feeling and what our children are feeling and what that weird guy standing next to us in line at the grocery store is feeling. Turn off the news. Pay attention to what you are allowing yourself to ABSORB now and know when to say when.

Sun/Neptune can bring up feelings of melancholy, grief, exhaustion. It's a good time to catch a cold, for parades to be rained out, actions to drift off course. For something to happen/be happening that is COLLECTIVELY EMOTIONAL. To feel/be FLOODED. On the flip-side this is very soothing,  imaginative, compassionate energy, but it needs to go where it needs to go. Trying to force/manipulate life to go in a certain direction now will be challenging. Like trying to wrestle water.

Sun/Neptune can shine a BIG old spotlight (this is a once a year aspect and this year they meet at master number 22 degrees, so this is big) on our DREAM.

This is excellent energy for meditation (watch for over-medicating, effects of alcohol use gets amplified, etc), prayer, compassionate action. Making art and music. Healing. There is self-sacrifice here and sometimes the ego needs a little dissolving, but let's not take this too far. Self-sabotaging is possible, too. Toxins are more easily absorbed, so extra care should be taken with chemicals/food preparation, etc. If something is too draining, if you can feel yourself 'leaking' all over the situation or someone else is leaking all over you - say goodnight Gracie. 

This would have been felt last Friday and Saturday, too, and into early next week. Whatever comes up is needed, brings cleansing, brings CATHARSIS.

Monday's Moon in Leo looks dicey. Get some extra rest.

today's astrology forecast | Thursday, March 10th, 2022 - doing our Gemini, talking about it, playing it smart, get things done early

 

The Moon finishes us her monthly journey through communicative/busy-busy Gemini. 

 

She squares the Sun at 5:45AM EST, trines Saturn two minutes later (good for conversations with authority and stepping into our own, taking care of responsibilities, getting results) and goes void off her square with imaginative/foggy Neptune at 11:42AM EST. 

 

She will be void for the rest of the day, so GET THINGS DONE EARLY.

The Moon's early morning square to the Sun is this month's First Quarter Square - Gemini/Pisces. This is tension/frustration between dealing with the facts/details/errands and letting things kind of flow/work out on their own. Book smarts vs intuitive feelings. The Moon in Gemini needs to be HEARD. Words need to be spoken out loud/information parsed through. This shouldn't be some big emotional thing. The Pisces Sun - and Mercury is in Pisces, too, now and Mercury rules Gemini - might want to gloss over things/take a break, feel what needs to be communicated (turn something into that big emotional thing) when what we really need now, on our way to next week's BIG Full Moon in Libra - is the FACTS/to take care of the details. Stay focused - at least until that void Moon in the afternoon. Then we can relax a bit.

This is also the day, after more than three years, Vesta moves into Aquarius, passing over that HOT zero degrees Aquarius (world starts up again). 

 

Our focus/attention/what is keeping us up at night/what we NEED TO KEEP LIT - moves from the past into the future. Vesta in Aquarius speaks of a sacred devotion to causes/groups/friendships. A value of freedom/individuality/intelligence/science/tech. The fly in the ointment here is an Aquarian tendency to value 'people', over any particular person, mental stubbornness and detachment. Aqua taken too far, as Vesta's extreme focus can do, can be too robotic/too impersonal/need a shot of Leo.

Tomorrow the Moon will come home to Cancer. In Cancer she will make multiple smooth/positive aspects over the next couple days. Her final aspect in Cancer is an opposition to Pluto in Capricorn on Sunday morning. So things can flip around on us. Keep this in mind.

Today's astrology forecast | Tuesday, March 8th, 2022 - from earth to air, the pace quickens, use your head

 

The Moon continues her journey through Taurus - the sign of her exaltation. She meets the North Node (the need for something more simple/future-focused) and squares Mercury(tension, frustration, argument) by 9:04AM EDT. She goes void off a trine (brakes off) with Pluto thirty minutes later. The trine can be an easy release/elimination of what needs to go or maybe this is a smooth integration of power/authority. 

 

She is void until 1:40PM EST when she moves into multi-tasking/communicative Gemini.

 

Now, we are nourished/nurtured through conversation, information, having lots of irons in the fire/balls in the air. We might be focused on errands, writing, reading, learning, children's school issues, sibling or local community, transportation or tech situations. She trines Mars at 5:40PM EST and then Venus at 6:27PM EST.

Air trines. Mental stimulation. Smooth conversations, lots of movement. Are these Venus and Mars first aspects since their move into Aquarius on Sunday? I think they are!

Good for sharing unusual/new ideas. Minds are open. This is logical/clever energy that is good for group exchanges. It's not the time for a big heart-to-heart/heavy conversation. Keep things light. Conversational. Future-focused. Use your head. Use humor. 

 

There is alot of 'mental stimulation' here and not everything will be totally conscious.

Today's astrology forecast | Monday, March 7, 2022 - comfort day, talking about controversial topics and uncomfortable information

 

The Moon is in Taurus now, the sign of her exaltation. 

 

We are nourished/nurtured by traditionally nurturing things - comfort, good food, the touch that feels like love. She meets up with Uranus at 1:37AM EST - these monthly meetings making us more comfortable with change/things outside that comfort zone - then moves on to sextile (opportunity for growth, expansion) Jupiter at 8:49AM EST and the Sun at 12:02PM EST. She squares Saturn at4:55PM EST (frustration with a delay, limit, rule, roadblock, responsibility) and sextiles Neptune at 11:02PM EST. 

That lunchtime (EST) sextile to the Pisces Sun is this month's Waxing Sextile (growth opportunity) - Taurus/Pisces. 

 

This is a calming/soothing energy if we aren't needing something done right NOW. What is drifting gets more grounded. What is stagnant can start to move/drift. Earth and water - making the dream real or adding some imagination/compassion to something that is stuck/solid. 

After the War Goddess post HERE, I have decided to add their meanderings into these lunar updates. This is the day Mercury, fresh off those squares with the Nodes of Fate (are we moving backward to the old stuff that is dead or forward toward new growth), trines (brakes off) Black Moon Lilith in multi-tasking Gemini. 

 

Putin, with his BML/South Node/Pluto conjunct is an old Lilith. Ancestral channel/past life. With Mercury/BML in a smooth energetic trine, uncomfortable information and smart conversations can flow. With Aquarius/Gemini, the key is to step back a little bit and keep words light/short/factual/future focused. BML's controversial behavior can be dealt with best through a wider/less personal lens. If something has grown too heated, a third party Aquarian type energy can help. On the flip side, if words have grown too detached/impersonal, now is the time to add some unorthodox facts/choices into the mix.
