Theme: Thinking through situations

With Mercury, the planet of communication conjunct the Sun and Saturn, thinking through situations can produce beneficial results. Your inner resources are illuminated. You may feel swamped with tasks but you also, equally, have tools at your disposal. The Moon has moved into Libra providing a support bridge for diplomatic solutions intractible conflicts. The Venus/Mars trine to the Moon also boosts your chances of finding alternative pathways to resolve differences.

Give me love, give me peace on earth, Give me light, give me life, keep me free from birth, Give me hope, help me cope, with this heavy load, Trying to, touch and reach you with, heart and soul.~George Harrison

Theme: Tidy then Confused

As the Moon moves through Virgo today it is an excellent time for cleaning and organizing. Then late in the day the Moon opposes Neptune and we have strange moods. Beware of misunderstandings with others. Remember that we are in a no retrograde phase until April 1st, the next Mercury retrograde. So things should generally move forward rapidly now. The stellia in Aquarius, and Pisces enhance humanitarian and spiritual pursuits.

Theme: Subjectivity

It is the time in the 4 month cycle between Mercury retrogrades when the Sun and Mercury are tightly united. For the next week we have more trouble being objective. We can focus intently and be successful if we can be open to other points of view. We are on the cusp of being both restricted by Saturn and expanded by Jupiter. The balance of both forces should be helpful for the next week.

I think I am, therefore, I am… I think. ~George Carlin

Theme: Fanciful of Spiritual?

Mercury has joined the Sun and Saturn in Pisces for 2 and 1/2 weeks. Our thinking becomes more imaginative. We have more potential for wisdom and compassion now. But can we keep grounded in reality at the same time? Venus is united with Mars until the end of the month indicating strong energy for partnership. We can overdo it now as the two planets square Jupiter. And the Moon moves from playful Leo to organizing Virgo in the evening.

The antidote is the realization of compassion, which should be the core of one’s life. ~Jetsunma Akhon Norbu Lhamo

The Moon is void of course today until 8:39 pm EST. Do not make any big decisions during this time period.

Theme: Steady accomplishment

As the Sun approaches Saturn it’s not all doom and gloom. Effort produces result and even the accomplishment of the smallest of tasks can feel rewarding. It’s a good time to draw on your experience and work creatively within limitations rather than kicking against them. You’ll only hurt your toes if you do. The Moon in Leo invites you to play and be creative and Jupiter sextile the Sun promotes expansion and growth. Finding an inner balance is possible at this time.

If you understand comedy, you understand life. Drama, death, tragedy – everybody has these. But with humour you’ve got all these, and the antidote.~Eric Sykes

Theme: Softening the edges

The Sun has moved into the water sign of Pisces ushering in a month long cycle that embraces the themes of compassion, spirituality – and illusion and escapism. Self-honesty is the guiding light to steer you away from the more challenging aspect of Pisces, which includes addictions. The conjunction of the Sun and Saturn in Pisces over the next week is particularly difficult as the sign of Pisces focuses us on feelings rather than raw materialism that can be the reality of daily life. Mars conjunct Venus offers a balance in dealing with extremes by inviting us to marry our inner and outer worlds.

Coming and going by the dance, I see that what I am not is a part of me. Dancing is all that I can ever trust, The dance is all I am, the rest is dust. I will believe my bones and live by what will go on dancing when my bones are not.~Epitaph

Theme: Focus and Generosity

The Sun is in good aspect to the Moon – and the Moon and Sun are in good aspect to Jupiter enabling us to open our hearts and minds. At the same time the Sun is approaching a conjunction with Saturn which necessitates being realistic about what one can achieve and working within limitations, financial or otherwise. The Moon in Cancer means we are more in touch with our feelings but can also mean we are overly sensitive.

You may study a lot and become a great scholar, but if you can’t subdue your own mind, what’s the point?~HH Penor Norbu Rinpoche

Theme: Caught in the middle

The planet governing relationships is sandwiched between Pluto and Mars. You may feel pressured to do things you wouldn’t ordinarily do. If you can engage in diplomacy everyone will be better served. The Sun is approaching Saturn which increases the focus on structures and their limitations. The Moon in Cancer offers respite in the home and generates a more nurturing spirit.

To practice devotion, discipline and generosity, To free the mind through hearing the Dharma, and to have dignity, self-control And discriminating awareness-make these seven noble human qualities.~Jigme Lingpa

Theme: Daydreams or Reality?

The Moon is square Neptune for much of the day and we can be lost in harmless fantasy or harmful delusions. At best we can use this energy creatively. Be careful of using drugs or alcohol today though. Relationships continue to be intense. Can we be a supportive friend or are we going to have a control struggle today? We are still looking for freedom and should watch out for unexpected events.

I was trying to daydream, but my mind kept wandering. ~Steven Wright

The Moon is void of course today from 10:22 pm until 10:26 pm EST. Do not make any big decisions during this time period.

Theme: Freedom Part 2

The strong Aquarian energy continues for 2 more days, but without the emotional well-being. The pace of the day is faster as the Moon is in Gemini. Our minds are very fast due to the Mercury-Uranus square. We can get a lot done but must watch out for being sloppy. If work that requires much concentration can be postponed for a couple of days, this would be good. Remember to be patient and kind to others.

Life without liberty is like a body without spirit. ~Kahlil Gibran
