"Freedom is won only through fulfillment. And to be free means always somewhat not to know; it is the coefficient of inaccuracy. It is based on the courage to go forth while not knowing the future."

We are likely to see a great deal of (sometimes erratic) individuality trying to break through any sort of organized, cooperative activity this week. The potent Spring Equinox New Moon lunar cycle culminates with a highly creative Libra Full Moon (9:34 PM PDT 16° Libra/Aries) on Wednesday which opposes a Sun-Chiron conjunction in Aries. The challenge of the Full Moon is figuring out how we can assert our unique, individual perspective and still hope to find any sort of general consensus. In some ways, this seems like a 'Tower of Babel' scenario but it isn't [...]

The first arrival of Pluto into Aquarius this week signals that we are on the verge of a New Era. But Pluto will not be fully established in Aquarius until November of 2024 so, essentially, we are actually teetering on the edge of a New Era, with all of the uncertainty and instability which that suggests. The arrival of Saturn in Pisces, just after the Virgo Full Moon on March 7th, further reflects the lack of clarity in the current environment. We need to rely more heavily on intuition without slipping into delusion, self-deception, or over-optimism while still listening for the 'still, small, voice' of [...]

However, they may only be seen on a subtle level — perhaps even only through paying particular attention to evidence of subconscious activity. There is something like a 'unity consciousness' developing within smaller groups — our 'tribe', our community, or our family circle as individual perspectives are shared more and more productively. Tuesday's Virgo Full Moon (4:40 AM PST 16° Virgo/Pisces) solidifies our instinct to 'protect and serve' any group with which we feel some connection. We can begin to recognize the importance of the connections we have within that group, understanding that it is our individual responsibility to 'carry our weight' in the service of 'our group'. Saturn finally leaves Aquarius just after the Full Moon and arrives in Pisces, shifting our focus away from r [...]
