Do you feel
inspired? Did you pull out your journal and favorite pen this morning? That is
the magical energy of this Pisces New Moon at work. The extra supercharge of
mystical knowledge coming at you is brought on by a close conjunction with Neptune
in Pisces’s ruler and an exact trine with Jupiter, the traditional ruler of the
two fishes, who is in Cancer. Blessed be! Faith is miraculously restored, dreams
intensify and perception is heightened as your long-time project finally comes
to fruition! Persuasive Pluto in Capricorn creates a desire to dive deeply into
current ventures and work them through to completion. In addition, Chiron, the
centaur who represents the wounds we learn to heal others with, is conjunct
this lunation in Pisces. We now have an opportunity to work on self-identification
and realize we are indeed spiritual beings having a human experience. The
dualistic sign of the two fishes marks the end of the Zodiac cycle and reminds
us that we exist in the realm of spirit as well as the physical. Rather than
dipping into the psychosis and paranoia that can come from the unknown, choose
to ride deeply into the unconscious mind and swim back to the surface with
pearls of wisdom.
Later today,
Mars turns retrograde and seemingly hits the brakes on all forward motion. Don’t
let this throw you. It is an opportunity to redistribute and reschedule. This
whacky rebound takes place in Libra giving a chance to cool down and find new considerate
ways to accomplish all the tasks at hand. Take care to stick with the truth and
avoid passive aggressive behavior at all costs.
Joining the
back-peddling, staunch Saturn in Scorpio turns introspective in retrograde as
well on March 2. This is a great opportunity to begin or strengthen your
meditation practice. Why not join me for my upcoming Vak-Yoga seminars or
better yet, my journey to Peru. These are great ways to begin or deepen and
existing practice. This period of introspection lasts through July 30. All
shifts taking place now are very subtle on the surface, yet they are moving
mountains inwardly.
March 5,
lovely Venus floats into Aquarius. This is a time of emotional detachment as
she can indeed cool things down. Don’t become fooled that passion has dwindled
but rater use this as an opportunity to connect more profoundly at an
intellectual level with your love. Freedom in relationships and a realization
that another cannot fill a perceived hole is when the greatest depths can be
reached. Let go of stereotypes and create your own unique idea of what your interactions
are.
Changing the
directional trend, Jupiter in Cancer begins to slowly move forward having
completed his recent retrograde cycle. The connection with the sign of the crab
gives an opportunity to reconnect with your roots. Draw wisdom from your elders
and honor your family. This helps set a strong stone in the foundation of your
ability to nurture and care for others.
The Full Moon
in Virgo on March 16, gives you the ability to discern the difference between actual
and intangible aspects of what we call reality. Indeed this is a month of
strong artistic currents but it is also an opportunity for compassion and ways
to overcome superficial skirmishes. Do what you can to turn inward and find a
contemplative state of being.
Mercury joins
the inner planets in Pisces March 17, infusing the dream state with rich
imagery and ideas. Be sure to capture these magical musings in your journal and
place them into your creative projects. It is acceptable to let the mind drift
as long as you keep a loose tie to it. This way when it finds a brilliant idea,
you can reel it in and capture it!
March 20, the
Sun flames into boisterous Aries. This heralds the start of the new Tropical
year and change of seasons. Keep in mind the mirror reflection of the Mars
ruled warrior is Venutian Libra. Choose peace and acts that create more balance
in your life.
I wish you a blessed
month of magical dreaming and compassionate acts. May you realize new aspects
of self and in turn share the beauty with those around you!
I invite you
to read on for my predictions for the 12 signs.
Aries March
19/20 to April 20/21
Mind your
rammy tendencies. Your desire for independence is at a major high. Take care to
not singe those around you with your need for space. It is impossible for
everyone and everything to adapt to your every whim. Energy is a little bit
below optimum, watch out for blue periods. When you sense this coming on,
politely excuse yourself and bow gracefully out of any social demands you are
unable to meet. Quiet time is extra important now. If needed, use a day off
from work to take “me” time and just take care of you. Ignore when those
closest to you act more temperamental than usual. Just give them a wider girth.
Taurus April
20/21 to May 21/22
Let the
kindness of others melt your rough exterior. As emotions swim to the surface,
stay vigilantly aware of your reactions. It takes very little to set others
off. Place your recent ponderings into action. Now is the time to ask for an
evaluation and a subsequent raise. Those of you in business for yourselves can
seek backers and new allies. Attend social functions and allow yourself to be
led to places where you can make new connections. Take a much needed break from
your daily routine and attend a spiritually focused workshop or retreat. All
personal relationships have hair-trigger tempers so take care and think twice
before knowingly provoking them.
Gemini May 21/22 to June 21/22
Make health your primary focus. Take extra care to
monitor your stress levels. The good news is that your self-esteem is on the
rise. This in turn replenishes the dwindling and depleted resources you had
been working with. All relationships are slowly beginning to move forward. If
you have been seeking your twin, or mirror self, you find many better prospects
available. Keep your eyes and your heart open. A financial windfall must be
carefully invested so as to provide for the future. Be sure to sock away a good
amount. When opportunity for foreign travel arises, why not go for it? The
domestic need you have been trying to handle, finally works itself out. It is
fine to adopt a “have it all” attitude.
Cancer June 22/23 to July 22/23
The speed of life has indeed increased way beyond your comfort
zone. Be sure to find plenty of time to immerse yourself in rest and
contemplation. Research and study gets you to the necessary answers you have
been seeking. Work-wise, things seem a little slow, don’t let it fool you. A
strong rush is just around the corner demanding your unique offerings. Luck is
on your side, so reach a little past your boundaries. Pack your bags as an
extended business trip is just around the corner. Be sure to take your dream
journal along!
Leo July 22/23 to August 23/24
Everything is coming clearly into focus regarding your
career and what you really want. It seems just a simple smile magically unlocks
many doors. The boons and cravings you have are about to be satisfied and met.
Be patient as they are traveling at a slower pace than you hope. The secret to
moving it along is to get into an intensive clean up mode. The recent flourish
in your sex life begins to transform into an opportunity for love. This causes
you to wake up to the facts about your past patterns and offers a great deal of
personal growth. It is up to you what will be.
Virgo August 23/24 to September 23/24
Social and career activities increase. Others delight in
your company. This is perfect timing as a recent family drama is finally
cooling down. this in turn frees up your availability. Love is pouring out to
you, so be sure to believe in your worthiness. Intense dreams bring profound
messages from deep within the psyche. Take extra time to seek out guidance for
any financial risk you are considering. When you over-stress the mind, the body
is compromised, so take extra good care of your health. Let your feelings act
as a meter for your decision making.
Libra September 23/24 to October 23/24
Get yourself on a strict sleeping and eating schedule.
The recent fast pace you have been moving at, is creating poor health. You
cannot risk this doubly destructive outcome. To get your creative project going
again, you receive a much needed visit from your muse. Rather than getting hung
up on the long absence, just be grateful for the current infusion. Take extra
care to avoid burnout. If forced to choose between art and love, choose the creative
expression and keep the physical connection light.
Scorpio October 23/24 to November 22/23
Reach to the back of your closet and pull out your best
outfits. You are about to take the town by storm. Many great things are
happening. Whenever you find yourself at home, take advantage of the ability to
practice good healthy habits. This helps to counteract the effects of being on
the road. As you encounter new people places and things, be sure to feel a magnetic
force both emotionally and intellectually. A déjà vu from your past shows up in
the form of a new package. This new acquaintance is an opportunity to resolve
old issues and helps you redefine and adjust past reactive patterns.
Sagittarius November 22/23 to December
21/22
You have found it very difficult to
have time just for yourself. Any effort you have made to change this has
failed. The good news is you have become a great deal clearer as to where you
wish to head in the near future. You must see that your frustration comes from
a perceived lack of power. Breakthroughs happen when you identify the patterns.
This is the current lesson at hand. It could last for the next six months so it
is your choice to get it now or struggle. Earning is slow and steady. Choose to
focus on love and health improvement over frivolous spending and be grateful.
Capricorn December 21/22 to January
20/21
Foreign travel and advanced courses
drift into view. These are here to help you increase your skills and help to
add positive energy to all of your projects. Meanwhile home and family are
experiencing a tumultuous drama. The complications are not for you to get hung
up on. Rather than getting all tangled in the knot of confusion choose to stick
with choices and people who reflect your brilliance back to you. Sea goats who
are seeking new relationships are in for a surprising treat. In order to meet
this new love, be sure to say yes to all invitations from siblings and
neighbors for social gatherings.
Aquarius January 20/21 to February
18/19
The mind is as sharp as a tack. Your
schedule opens up as if by magic. This allows you plenty of time to explore
many new interests. Bid for changes that you want at work. Make choices that
allow you to stay home more. Prior to jumping on these new opportunities, be
sure to thoroughly examine both sides of the coin. Take into consideration how
your choices are to affect others. Use your unusual ability to attract what you
really want. Remember that the mind is a valuable and integral element of love
and attraction.
Pisces February 18/19 to March 19/20
Go ahead; demand to have it your way!
This is a great time to launch new designs and schemes. Charge boldly forward
and allow a faster pace to pull you along. Charisma and star quality is at a
peak. All you have to do is show up and the right people, places and things
appear. Be sure to keep the intention that everything is for the highest good
of all and avoid selfish behavior. By doing this you can watch as the magic
happens. Don’t get antsy when you hit a financial speed bump. Just pay it off
and continue forward. As you look back later note the lessons and make
necessary adjustments for the future.
