Theme: Activity

With most planets in active cardinals signs – especially Aries – now is the time to accomplish. It’s an anti-procrastination experience! Even if you’re not the active type – activity will visit you. It’s a test to remain grounded and mindful at such times. The Moon conjunct Chiron invites you to identify circumspect habits that hold you back. Venus and Neptune are in their home signs continuing to bring beauty into even the most mundane places.

If you have compassion in your everyday life, you collect the most extensive merit and purify much negative karma in a very short time.~Lama Zopa Rinpoche

3/21/2023 Zest!

The Sun has moved into Aries bringing the enthusiasm and a strong dose of self-will into play. It’s a head first month! With Mars square Neptune, Moon and Sun today you will have a good chance to watch your mind as something or someone sorely tests your patience. It’s a good time to take a breath when this happens and count to ten! On an inner level you have the opportunity for insight with the Moon reflecting back your mind/spirit to you.

Theme: What is separate from you?

As the Moon approaches Neptune in Pisces, the boundaries between yourself and the world around you, including your relationships, diminishes. It’s an opportune time to meditate and benefit from the natural connections you have with the universe that often lie dormant. It’s not beneficial to escape from reality through substances as it can open a veritable Pandora’s Box of difficulty. The Sun opposite Ceres invites you to receive and give generously.

I have always felt that one of the secrets of real beauty is simplicity.~Rita Hayworth

Theme: Extracting your self

The Sun has slipped past Neptune providing you with a clearer purpose and sense of identity. There is still the vexed placement of Mars square Sun/Neptune/Mercury conjunction. Mars was the Roman God of War so whenever Mars is in difficult aspect to other planets, as it is right now, you have to tread carefully and take more precautions when you are undertaking a physical activity. Energetically you’re also being challenged to stand up for your rights. With Mercury in play communications and messages can give insight and provide other perspectives.

Do not disregard small misdeeds, Thinking they are harmless, Because even tiny sparks of flame, Can set fire to a mountain of hay.~The Buddha

Theme: Pent up energy

With Mars square both the Sun and Neptune conjunction you might be forgiven for feeling a little out of sorts when situations push you into what feels like a corner. So transform the cornered feeling with your mind! There is still the potential for a breakthrough in your perception of reality if you don’t let yourself get distracted. With the Moon now in Capricorn, focus on putting one foot firmly in front of the other.

The mind is devoid of mind, For the nature of mind is clear light.~The Buddha

The Moon is Void of Course today between EST USA 4.50 am until 8:06 am. Avoid starting new projects, making new purchases, planning big events or signing contracts. Take time for inner reflection and self-care.

Theme: Contrasting principles

With the square between Neptune and Mars, and the Sun approaching Neptune there is a frustration that ordinary things cannot be easily accomplished. There is a parallel drain on your energy making forward movement more difficult. In material reality the planet Neptune is an anathema. Neptune is associated with the ether, other worlds and realities, but is also tied to the spiritual insofar as it invites us to connect with something beyond our senses.

However awful or however soliciting our external circumstances may be, in the end, our happiness or unhappiness depends on the mind.~Jetsunma Tenzin Palmo

Theme: Restoring faith

With the Moon in Sagittarius and Jupiter conjunct Chiron idealism has wings and your faith in the possible can be realized, especially once you let go of old stories of failure. As Mercury, the planet of communication, approaches the Sun there is more connectivity with your sense of purpose and your ability to communicate your wishes. However, you do have to be aware of increased subjectivity at this time. Energy is a bit low with Neptune zapping Mars, encouraging more introspection and rest at this time.

Each of us must learn to work not just for his or her own self, family, or nation, but for the benefit of all humankind. Universal responsibility is the real key to human survival. It is the best foundation for world peace.~HH The Dalai Lama
