This week is a mix of energies that include the New Moon in Pisces and the Spring Equinox two days later. Two beginnings, two days apart, and with Mercury Stationing on the Equinox about to turn Direct. The Fire Horse may not jump out of the gate as quickly as you would like, as you need to wait for clarity and info to fill in missing blanks. 

March 13 – North Node conjunct Mars. The N. Node calls you forward, inspiring actions that align with your Destiny and highest calling. You may stretch beyond your comfort zone (where you land or how you get there), which can trigger fear or overwhelm when you are in unfamiliar territory, but it doesn’t have to. 

Slow down and allow yourself to acclimate to your new conditions. The goal is to be called by your spirit, heart and Inner Guidance, rather than being run by your egoic mind that needs all the info NOW. Remind yourself that you are new in this space and enjoy the exploration; you’re not supposed to know everything up front.

March 15 – Mercury Retrograde conjunct Mars. With Mercury in slow-mo, you may be dealing with something you activated on the Mars-N Node aspect two days ago or reconsidering ideas or moves that are already in play. Impulsive thoughts, words or actions can create problems that you then have to deal with. Slow down and attune within to feel your truth before speaking or acting (if possible). 

March 17 – North Node conjunct Mercury. This is the second of three meetings (Feb 12, March 23) and you may be in the midst of a process in which you’re opening to a new vision, perspective or direction that is part of your evolution. You will revisit this pair the following week, with Mercury Direct, and you will likely receive info that offers even more insight and clarity if you are seeking guidance.

On the New Moon in Pisces, we have two other aspects on the same day, but activated earlier.

March 18 – Venus square Jupiter. Your desire for pleasure and generosity are amplified, that can be a problem if you go overboard (excess or imbalance). You may give, give, give to others or over-indulge in comfort, using things that feel good to quell your anxiety. Pisces is susceptible to escapism and more is not always better, so enjoy mindfully. On a higher level, you may purify and/or expand your heart to take a stand for love, family, care, or another heart-centered principle that serves the Greater Good.

Sun sextile Uranus. This vibrant energy creates a shakeup, excitement or a sudden change that liberates a part of you that’s been asleep, stuck or rigid. Uranus transcend limits by taking a risk, experimenting, innovating or activating buried aspects of the Self. This is the fast track to an alternate reality; it instigates changes in a flash. Express your genius, your uniqueness, or do something that thrills you! There are aspects of you waiting to come out and play…

March 18 – New Moon in Pisces @ 6:23pm PDT. The Eclipse Wormhole ends on this New Moon, inviting you to bring your new consciousness forward to your next steps and your future. Once more, it’s time to bless and release anything complete or outdated—old beliefs, priorities, behaviors and paths that are no longer relevant or helpful. Allow them to dissolve and wash away; you are shedding old identities to create space for the new. 

Feel your heart’s desires as you dream your visions into existence, even when you don’t know you’re doing it. Every thought counts, every longing is registered. Your dreams have power. Allow space for relaxation, nature and peace as you connect with the higher realms to access Divine love. Contemplate your New Moon intentions, what you want to create and call into your life. 

You are planting seeds that will manifest as you go forward. Don’t push, don’t stress, trust in perfect unfolding, as this is beyond the mind’s knowing or control. Neptune in Aries conjoins the New Moon and is holding space for All That Is in new territory with pioneering energy.

The Sun joins Neptune and Saturn in Aries on the March 20 Equinox, the Astrological New Year and the beginning of a new era. I’ll tell you more next week, but know that much of what is being embedded this week is invisible to us. Allow yourself to flow intuitively through the week, trusting your Inner Guidance, and when Mercury starts moving after the Equinox, it will be “go” time. 

Follow your own rhythm, trust that you are being supported, be open to change and expect the best. 

Namaste, my friend. I am so grateful for your presence on our journey together. 🌷

The two recent Eclipses continue to activate turbulent, fated activity as we surf  the Pisces waves and ride the Aries Fire Horse. Emotional flow (or floods) with  high energy initiations are the current signature. More endings and new  beginnings.  

This can strain your nervous system and push you in ways that you weren’t  prepared for, yet there is a bigger picture that has not yet been fully revealed. We  continue to navigate a messy Mercury Retrograde in Pisces, that calls for extra  spaciousness, rest and mindfulness in order to gain clarity and function.  

March 2-April 9 – Mars in Pisces. At best this is Wu Wei energy, in flow around  bumps and obstacles as you move in grace. Sometimes you are confused, going  in circles. No confrontation is necessary; Wu Wei is intuitive and strategic, as  small actions can generate meaningful results. Allow yourself to be guided in  harmony with your environment rather than having rigid plans in advance. (This  is a Pisces comfort zone and a Virgo stretch). If your energy is low, it’s being  called within. Obey your body’s signals. 

March 6- 30 – Venus in Aries. The courage of your convictions—your values,  style, creativity, $$ and relationships are all on the menu and in Aries, Venus  calls the shots. She doesn’t wait around for someone to give her things, she  goes for them herself. Think: warrior goddess, a fierce maverick or pioneer who  

won’t be deterred or silenced; who takes a stand for her values and for her Self.  Watch the women rise up. 

Know who you are and what you want, then decide how to activate a beginning  that leads to your desired outcomes. Be bold and commit to the creativity and  quality of life you want to live. Although Venus is associated with receptivity, this  one makes the moves and is proactive. Make good use of self-love in action. 

March 7 – Mercury Cazimi. This is the midpoint of Mercury Retrograde, as  Mercury sits in the heart of the Pisces Sun. Mercury Cazimi can bring insights,  messages, signs and symbols that are encoded with info (often nonverbal) that  you must interpret. Clarity, focus, connection or ideas arrive to offer solutions or  knowing that puts things in place. Plus, Mercury is moving into a flowing trine  with benefic Jupiter, bringing a new perspective, expanded vision and maybe  new solutions.  

March 7 – Venus conjunct Neptune in Aries. Use this to take actions in service to  your dreams. You may be passionate about your ideals, willing to take a stand  and motivated to manifest them. The power is in having a vision that inspires you 

to be bold. This can also show up as pushiness or aggressive behavior, so be  mindful how you make your moves.  

March 8 – Daylight Savings Time begins. Spring forward, lose an hour of sleep,  gain an hour of light in the evening.  

March 8 – Venus conjunct Saturn. Don’t misunderstand, Saturn-Venus forces you  to get real and face whatever requires an adjustment, decision or boundary.  Financial restrictions or a large expense may appear or relationship issues arise  that require negotiating. You may set boundaries around your time and energy  (valuing your Self), affecting your choices about love and other relationships.  

Saturn honors work and limits, will work/wait now for a long term desired result.  Venus in Aries wants what it wants NOW, but Saturn says: “Not yet; first you  have to (fill in the blank)” or you may have to give up one thing to have another.  Create a plan to actualize your dream or to begin. Don’t be deterred by the work  you have to do. This is how you build inner muscle and self-esteem, and it will be  worth it.  

March 9 – Mercury trine Jupiter. This can bring good news, smart plans, an  inspiring message and a big picture vision with can-do optimism. However,  Mercury is Retrograde and Jupiter is Stationing Direct, with a super-strong  broadcast. It’s possible to over-promise, over-commit or over-estimate what’s  

doable or possible, so be mindful when making promises or big decisions. With  Mercury is Retro, you may not have all the info, you may be confused or  misunderstand details. But opening to the highest potential can magnetize  contacts, info and ideas that are very helpful, so use it, but don’t commit to  anything that you can’t adjust as needed going forward. 

March 10 – Venus sextile Pluto. This is an alchemical duo, perfect for diving deep  into love, relationships, $$, values and creativity to transform old patterns and  awaken on a profound inner level. All or nothing; it is magnetic, powerful and  intimate. Venus-Pluto in harmony is a magnetic attraction (romance or  otherwise), an intense connection that’s deep, passionate and can be obsessive,  but is meaningful.  

Although it’s harmonious, there’s a setup for both passion and conflict here.  Venus is in independent Aries, who is not submissive and Pluto is controlling by  nature. So even though it’s a sextile, the potential for a clash is built in, based on  autonomy vs. control. The higher expression is the awareness and integration of  issues that block the heart from opening to love (safety/trust issues, worthiness,  trauma, habit), which likely won’t happen in a day, but it can be the beginning of a  major healing.

March 10 – Jupiter Stations Direct. Jupiter prepares to move forward after being  Retrograde since Nov ’25, when you reconsidered your ideals, ethics and beliefs  in order to emerge with clarity about your goals and direction. Or at the least,  knowing what you don’t want. Jupiter in Cancer is about family, care, generosity  and community. Feelings matter. Emotional safety matters. Speaking up matters.  

Jupiter invites Higher Truth, growth and evolution, beliefs and integrity. It  magnifies whatever it touches, generating confidence, energy and enthusiasm so  you can take action and move forward. Opportunities may appear out of the blue  and projects that were stalled may now be resurrected with new life. With  Mercury still trine Jupiter, communication and contacts should be abundant and  networking opportunities plentiful. 

Jupiter’s optimism can override a multitude of sins with a positive spirit that is  inspiring and contagious. The benefits of Jupiter will help to keep your spirits up  as you navigate some of the challenges built in to the current landscape, but it’s  all part of the trip. 

Mercury Retrograde in Pisces continues to retrace old territory for a new  perspective, new info, to redo, revise, review. Release the need to hurry and  allow yourself clear what’s no longer needed in order to create a fresh space for  what’s new. 

Your Inner Guidance is your GPS, your yes-no, as external info is not always  reliable, especially now. Attune within to feel what’s true for you. Conventional  wisdom is not the appropriate energy for guidance now. That’s why you need to  be able to trust yourself, and the voice of your Higher Self is never fear-based.  

You can have a wondrous personal experience, developing your contributions,  while surrounded by heavy energies and crumbling structures. We are the rescue  and recovery team, here to stabilize each with our own special piece of the  puzzle. Believe that. Your presence matters more than you know. 

Namaste, my friend. I am so grateful for your presence on our journey  together.

As we approach the Total Lunar Eclipse on March 3, continuing recalibration is the story in the Eclipse Wormhole, as you restructure your personal operating system and your life to accommodate change and evolve your Being. Everything is ripe for reconfiguration and movement (internal and external), offering you opportunities to realign with your environment, your vision and your deepest truth. 

Feb 27 – Mars square Uranus. Mars in Aries (think: Fire Horse) square Uranus in Taurus (security) will disrupt the status quo to seek liberation, freedom, breakthroughs and it can create volatility and reactivity. This is an edgy dynamic that falls on the recent Solar Eclipse degree, making it active for the next six months as a way of awakening and generating new beginnings. Driven and pushy meets resistance that clings to security.

You can be proactive and use the energy to activate changes in stagnant areas of your life, rather than resorting to the fear-based, contracted energy of protection. Bad idea, as fated forces are more powerful than your will if you resist what’s already in process. Better to follow your inner guidance and deeper truth, while adapting to the current landscape as life unfolds. Innovate or do something a new way. 

Feb 28 – Venus conjunct Mercury. Peace, harmony, connection with others who have a shared vision or dream, healing conversations and communications, amends, forgiveness, calming and the heart-centered energy of Divine Love are all possible today. Make the most of this blessing and gift today.

March 2-April 9 – Mars in Pisces. At best this is classic Wu Wei energy, moving in flow around bumps and obstacles as you surf the waves. No confrontation is necessary; Wu Wei is intuitive and strategic, as small actions can generate meaningful results. Allow yourself to be guided in harmony with your environment rather than having a rigid plan in advance. (This is a Pisces comfort zone and a Virgo stretch). If your energy is low, rest. Obey your body’s signals. 

March 3 – Total Lunar South Node Eclipse in Virgo @ 13º – 3:38 am PST. Lunar Eclipses are about endings and bringing things to light—and with a stellium (group) in Pisces, the energy of endings and completions is magnified. It’s time to let go and say goodbye to people, places and things that are leaving and the Eclipse will show you who, what and where they are.

The Virgo Moon conjoins the South Node (past) and is a culmination point around systems, habits and daily routines that shape your life, either supporting or draining your energy. It will highlight the price you pay for over-doing, over-giving, analysis paralysis, perfectionism or having too many balls in the air. Or you may appreciate how your daily rituals, routines and practices have strengthened you (high expression).

The South Node Virgo Moon wants order, the steps, the “how,” to feel safe, while the Pisces stellium calls for faith, intuitive guidance, trust in Divine Timing (as opposed to your timing), and the belief that everything is for The Greater Good. It also includes the belief that the Universe is conspiring for your Highest Good—and consider that you may not know what that is. When you operate from this perspective, you don’t have to be GM of the Universe, fearing that everything will fall apart or go awry without you in charge. 

On the day of the Eclipse you’re in the dark of the Moon, so reserve judgment about what happens (or doesn’t), knowing that more will be revealed… This is a time to simplify, adjust and clear in order to allow yourself more space—to rest, dream, surrender and to Be.

March 4 – Venus sextile Uranus. Expect a delightful surprise, a relationship shakeup, new friend(s), a novel creative experience or maybe take a walk on the wild side  to liven things up. However it plays out, it should be fun and stimulating, so make it a priority to allow some excitement in your life.

March 5 – Sun trine Jupiter. Jupiter can increase your confidence, optimism and create opportunities with a can-do feeling, You may be inspired to stretch and take a leap that you ordinarily wouldn’t, with a positive mindset that can color your actions and, as a result, your outcomes. Sun-Jupiter is also about generosity, inspiring others, growth and expansion. Make the most of this upbeat, positive day.

Mercury Retrograde in Pisces continues to retrace old territory for a new perspective, new info, to redo, revise, review. Downshift and release the need to hurry and allow yourself to have a multi-dimensional experience, with fresh perspectives.

Contemplate rather than memorize, ponder via inquiry to allow new insights to come through you. Allow yourself the opportunity to engage with life without requiring clear, immediate answers. Trust, faith. Journal and see what shows up if you like writing. Try various methods of receiving info. Stream of consciousness is just right for Mercury in Pisces Retrograde. You may have inner gifts that are waiting to come through. 

Take good care, make the most of the Sun, North Node, Mercury, Venus and Mars in Pisces that invite you to go within for peace, connection, to decompress and listen. There are messages waiting for you when you are available. 

Namaste, my friend. I am so grateful for your presence on our journey together. 🌷

We have a dramatic reset this week propelled by fated shifts that will shake up the world and activate fertile potential that unfolds over the coming months. The Year of the Fire Horse (Chinese astrology) gallops in with abandon, passion and acceleration on the Solar Eclipse, Mardi Gras and Ramadan. Talk about everything all at once… within the Eclipse Wormhole (a short distance between different realities). 

Feb 13 – Saturn in Aries. A major new era is activated as the Saturn (structure and authority) joins experiential Neptune at 0º Aries, the beginning of the zodiac. Neptune entered Aries on Jan 26, initiating a fresh wave of intention and motivation. Watch for significant new beginnings, with seeds planted as commitments sustained by disciplined follow-through. Saturn-Neptune haven’t met at 0º Aries in 6000+ years, so this is monumental and unprecedented for us. Stay tuned…

Aries initiates and Saturn structures. Pursue what inspires you with a plan and discipline, strategic assertiveness with commitment to what you will bring into form. For best results channel impulse into endurance, as you create a foundation for who you are becoming in this new era.

Personally, a rebirth is being initiated or percolating within you. You’ll know when you’re ready for action with the Aries-Fire Horse energy, to choose your direction and redirect the trajectory of your life. If you’ve felt exhausted or unclear, this is when you begin to awaken and recover your vitality. We are in process with a fire lighting the way.

Feb 15/16 – Sun square Uranus. Get ready for disruption, rebellion or innovation. You may experience a breakthrough or the desire for liberation after suppressing or ignoring your needs—or another’s actions may be the catalyst to force the issue. Liberation and reorganization may be called for. I recommend making proactive changes if needed in order to direct the energy, rather than being at the effect of it. 

Feb 16 – Mercury trine Jupiter. This is the first of three meetings as Mercury’s Retrograde will extend its stay in Pisces, going back over Jupiter in early March and then forward in April. There are big ideas, fruitful communications, connections, good news, inspiration and optimism. Make any major purchases and sign contracts now while Mercury is still in Direct motion. 

Mercury is in its Pre-Retrograde Shadow, covering territory it will retrace when it turns Retrograde on Feb 26, so be mindful that current events may be extended for the next few months. Not a bad thing, because anything that is drawn out will continue to evolve as you discover weak spots that call for revision. Aries in methodical Saturn will slow the pace down to see what’s structurally sound, which is helpful for Mercury in Pisces. Structure isn’t Pisces’ domain and it can use the support. 

Feb 17 – Solar Eclipse at 29º Aquarius @ 4:01am PST, a turbo-charged New Moon (new beginning) inside a Wormhole that catalyzes sudden changes and unexpected, fated events, especially with Uranus square the Solar Eclipse. With Saturn-Neptune at 0º Aries in an impactful activation, it’s effects will reverberate for years to come.

This is a shakeup that will affect the collective (Aquarius), as community will be an anchor now and going forward; the groups you belong to, your tribe(s), your people. We’re all in this together, which is not an ominous message—community is the collective Aquarius web of connection that we are moving into. We are each vital aspects of the whole and it’s important to belong as part of a group.

There is a sweet spot on the Solar Eclipse: Venus conjunct the North Node (Destiny) in Pisces, which can bring a fated relationship, a compassionate woman, a female leader, Divine feminine energy, while beauty, art and quality of life areas are highlighted. The North Node indicates something incoming that will lead us forward and Venus in Pisces is exalted, so be open to the transcendent energy of Divine Love, empathy, compassion and grace. 

This is also the Lunar New Year: Year of the Fire Horse in Chinese astrology, Mardi Gras and the holy days of Ramadan that go through March 19. The Eclipse energy may touch you personally and a new beginning may appear in a flash or someone around you is affected, but it will deliver notable shifts that will change the world as we know it, sooner or later… 

Feb 18 – Sun in Pisces. We go from the electric Eclipse energy into the soft, flowy soulful world of mystical Pisces. You may feel wired or overstimulated, needing to rest and restore your body, mind and nervous system. 

Pisces transcends the 3D world, ruling your Higher Self. It is otherworldly, ultra-sensitive and attuned to those who have less power (the underdog), always caring and wanting to help. We have the Sun, Moon, North Node, Mercury and Venus all in Pisces and everyone may be more sensitive and intuitive. As the final sign of the zodiac, it’s good for releasing anything you have outgrown or what no longer resonates with you. Gently and reverently let go to create space for the new.

Honor this experiential energy that calls you within to find peace and surround yourself with essentials that nurture your Being. Pisces is “yin” energy, receptive with no boundaries, and it needs solitude to decompress from a harsh world that can feel overwhelming. Meditation, nature, pets, children, gentle movement, music, art, dance and being in or near the water are nourishing for Pisces. Take good care of yourself in these active times and create space for yourself to be still. Peace and quiet are nourishing, as are deep, slow inhales and exhales. 

Disruptive forces are still at work. You decide where to focus. If you have a purpose, a project or a path of discipline, it can serve you well in these turbulent times. Your routines, work and self-care are all spiritual practices if treat them that way. Have reverence for yourself and your life, then allow it to radiate out to your loved ones, your circle and the world. 

Things are changing already. Truth is coming out slowly, but it’s coming. Tap into the Aries and Fire Horse energy that keeps the flame burning and never gives up. There’s great vitality available for you to tap into and if you need help, please get it.

Take good care, make the most of beautiful Mercury and Venus in Pisces by making or enjoying the artistic world, intuitive and spiritual pursuits, while sharing your heart and soul.

Namaste, my friend. I am so grateful for your presence on our journey together. 🌷
