Weekly Summary: MARCH 1 - MARCH 7 "There are four questions of value in life, Don Octavio. What is sacred? Of what is the spirit made? What is worth living for and what is worth dying for? The answer to each is the same. Only love."— Lord ByronThe Virgo Full Moon Eclipse (3:37 AM PST 12° Virgo/Pisces) on Tuesday marks quietly — in true Virgo fashion — a significant turning point in an intense lunar cycle that began under an Aquarius New Moon Eclipse (February 17, 4:00 AM PST 28° Aquarius) that squared Uranus and was followed up by an intensely frustrating Mars-Uranus square. The atmosphere surrounding this Full Moon is fraught with emotional confusion around trust and 'love' — in terms of strong emotional connection — without providing us with any certainty about who to trust and how we really feel. The smoothest way through the intensity is to simply reflect on how we got here, rather than insisting on finding or implementing quick solutions. The 'fixed sign' emphasis in this lunar cycle breaks down under the Virgo Full Moon. Virgo's analysis initiates a swirl of new questions that cannot be avoided. With Mercury, ruling Virgo, retrograding in Pisces, there are certainly elements of confusion and uncertainty that continue to seem to see our slow our progress. Nonetheless, the Full Moon is quietly inspiring detailed investigation and a meticulous organization of grounded but expansive new perspectives. The arrival of Mars into Pisces on Monday highlights the focus on endings that permeates the culmination of the lunar cycle. Mars in Pisces helps us to 'plumb the depths' to find deeper understanding but can also stir emotional outbursts and encourage martyrdom. Both the Sun and Mercury make trines to the stationing Jupiter, from Pisces to Cancer, as Mercury retrogrades back to the 'inferior conjunction' with the Sun. The trines to Jupiter suggest significant optimism but the optimism may feel more like a distraction in this atmosphere, rather than something that can help to inform the grounded, expansive perspective we are seeking. Venus arrives in Aries early on Friday morning, joining Saturn and Neptune, stirring up even more intriguing questions that produce uncomfortable exchanges and interactions. There is a some impulsiveness and excitability that lacks any significant focus. Some of us may become more inclined towards defensiveness rather than the pursuit of answers. Nonetheless, as we reach the end of the week, at the 'inferior conjunction' of the Sun and Mercury, there is a 'destiny-driven' sense of purpose in our activity. The prospect of finding emotional relief begins to seem within reach. The potential for emotional resolutions is actually supported by the extraordinary intellectual capacity. We can finally begin to open up to the grounded, investigative support that was quietly offered by the Virgo Full Moon. It may have seemed that there was too much confusion and too many questions. However, as the process has unfolded, we can finally beginning to see actual results. As the emotional atmosphere begins to settle out, our intellectual analysis can finally begin to come to some clear, well-grounded solutions.
The tests we face on Sunday are important and need to be attended to. Nonetheless, there is a rebellious independence, suggesting a deep resentment to the 'questioning' and 'testing' that we seem to be forced to undergo. Monday represents a day of endings, punctuated by strong imperatives. We may be trying to find some way to 'stay ahead of the pack' without really understanding where we're heading. We struggle to understand what questions we need to be asking on Tuesday. The environment is offering us profound intuitive and spiritual insights if we are able to let go of expectations and simply observe what is going on around us. Wednesday offers a 'let it all hang out' attitude that is both engaging and exciting. However, this is certainly not the time to 'crow' about anything or indulge in self-righteousness. Thursday's optimism may be more of a distraction, rather than offering any kind of a reasonably grounded perspective that is not completely undercut by emotional blind spots. Unanswered questions seem to swirl. Friday's impulsiveness and excitability lacks any significant focus. Many of us are more inclined towards defensiveness than the pursuit of answers. The potential for emotional resolutions is actually supported by Saturday's extraordinary intellectual capacity. We can finally begin to open up to the grounded, investigative support that is offered.

The tests we face today are important and need to be attended to. Nonetheless, there is a rebellious independence here, suggesting a deep resentment to the 'questioning' and 'testing' that we seem to be forced to undergo. We may believe that we have more power than we actually do. Alternatively, navigating today's challenges may bring some of us to a place of humility and surrender. This evening's Moon-Chiron trine (6:07 PM PST) helps us to step back from our individual challenges long enough to recognize that we aren't alone. As well, there are important emotional hurdles that may be obscured by any tangible or material obstacles that we're facing. Even if we seem to adequately address whatever obstacles that we face today, the deeply rooted emotional elements may remain just below the surface.
The Moon arrives in Virgo early this morning after making an opposition to Mars — just before Mars arrives in Pisces (6:15 AM PST). This is a day of endings, punctuated by the quincunxes that the Moon makes to both Pluto as well as the Saturn/Neptune conjunction. Today's necessary adjustments are forcing us to stay flexible and avoid holding on too tightly to any previously laid plans. The Moon will be full tomorrow morning — a Virgo Full Moon Eclipse (3:37 AM PST 12° Virgo/Pisces) — and we are most likely to feel the strong imperatives that come with all Full Moons today. This Moon is ruled by the retrograding Mercury in Pisces, suggesting a great deal of confusing information that is not easily organized. We may be trying to find some way to 'stay ahead of the pack' without really understanding where we're heading. This atmosphere is fraught with confusion around trust and 'love' without providing us with any certainty about who to trust and how we really feel. The smoothest way through today's intensity is to simply reflect on how we got here, rather than insisting on finding or implementing quick solutions.
This morning's Virgo Full Moon Eclipse (3:37 AM PST 12° Virgo/Pisces) does not offer the sort of assistance that we may be looking for — it's hard to even understand what questions we should be asking. The arrival of Mars into Pisces yesterday has shifted our focus as we absorb the intense changes that have been spawned by the now waning Saturn-Neptune conjunction. We may begin to feel that our only option is to resort to martyrdom and blind emotional outbursts. However, this environment is offering us profound intuitive and spiritual insights if we are able to let go of expectations and simply observe what is going on around us. There is little obvious continuity here, making it especially difficult to understand exactly where we are and how we got here. Nonetheless, the Full Moon is quietly inspiring detailed investigation and the pursuit of grounded but expansive new perspectives. Finding someone to 'talk it out' with is especially helpful in this atmosphere — a good listener is worth a lot!
The Moon's 'bumpy ride' through Virgo comes to an end after an early morning trine to Uranus (6:52 AM PST). Once in Libra (10:55 AM PST), the mood improves quickly. The oppositions to Saturn and Neptune provide us with some extra perspective on the ongoing shifts and endings that we have been navigating. Venus (ruling the Libra Moon) makes a sextile to Uranus today, encouraging a 'let it all hang out' attitude that is both engaging and exciting. The evening is capped off by a trine to Pluto, which further encourages us to step back enough to gain a broader perspective on what we may have had to let go of and 'why' it had to go. However, this is certainly not the time to 'crow' about anything or indulge in self-righteousness. Emotions are likely to still be rather raw or unsteady.
The Sun trines Jupiter today ahead of Jupiter's direct station next Tuesday — which we might hope would suggest a boost of optimism. However, the Moon's square to Jupiter and quincunx to the Sun disrupts the optimism with too many questions. Mercury will also retrograde back to trine Jupiter a couple more times this month after Saturday's inferior conjunction with the Sun. Essentially, there will continue to be more questions that we need to find answers to before we can emerge from this week's confusion and uncertainty with a reasonably grounded perspective that is not completely undercut by emotional blind spots. In this atmosphere, the optimism that Jupiter is offering may feel more like a distraction rather than something that can inform an expanded perspective. The Moon goes VOC this afternoon (3:22 PM PST) and won't arrive in Scorpio until tomorrow evening, leaving unanswered question swirling.
Venus arrives in Aries early (2:45 AM PST) this morning, joining Saturn and Neptune. Ruling the VOC Moon in Libra, Venus seems to stir up even more intriguing questions that produce uncomfortable exchanges and interactions. Today's impulsiveness and excitability lacks any significant focus. Many of us are more inclined towards defensiveness than the pursuit of any answers. The Moon's arrival in Scorpio this evening (8:01 PM PST) raises the stakes significantly but does seem to 'quiet the noise' briefly. However, the defensiveness increases and martyrdom may seem to be the only solution for some.
Mercury retrogrades back to conjunct the Sun today — the 'inferior conjunction' — as Venus completes the conjunction with Neptune and heads into a conjunction with Saturn tomorrow. These aspects are punctuated by the Moon's early morning trine to Mars (3:32 AM PST) and square to Pluto (5:13 AM PST), suggesting a 'destiny-driven' sense of purpose in today's activity. The prospect of finding emotional relief begins to seem within reach here. The potential for emotional resolutions is actually supported by today's extraordinary intellectual capacity. We can finally begin to open up to the grounded, investigative support that was quietly offered under last Tuesday's Virgo Full Moon Eclipse (3:37 AM PST 12° Virgo/Pisces). Although it may have seemed that there was too much confusion and too many questions, as the process has unfolded, we are finally beginning to see actual results. As the emotional atmosphere begins to settle out, our intellectual analysis can finally begin to come to some clear, well-grounded solutions.
Today is Tuesday March 10, 2026
Weekly Summary: MARCH 8 - MARCH 14 "Your visions will become clear only when you can look into your own heart. Who looks outside, dreams; who looks inside, awakes."— C.G. JungThere is an extraordinary emphasis on understanding the bridge between Pisces and Aries (endings and new beginnings) this week — Mars, Mercury, the Sun, and the North Node in Pisces and Neptune, Saturn, Venus, and Chiron in Aries. This week begins with a Scorpio Moon forming a Grand Water trine with Mercury in Pisces and Jupiter in Cancer that is followed up by the completion of Mercury's trine to Jupiter as Jupiter begins to station direct. The optimism in this atmosphere is unmistakable and brings echoes of last Fall's extended series of deeply emotional Grand Water Trines. This is offering some extraordinary emotional healing and release through a 'flowing blend' of intellect and intuition. However, despite the optimism that we find at the beginning of the week, we face extraordinary challenges in trying to blend the deeply optimistic, visionary inspiration of Pisces with a determination to act — the essence of Aries. Last Tuesday's Virgo Full Moon Eclipse (3:37 AM PST 12° Virgo/Pisces) has encouraged a grounded, intellectual analysis. The blending of that intellectual analysis with the deep, emotional inspiration of Pisces naturally feeds the Aries impulse to take action. However, we are in the waning phase of the lunar cycle and Mercury is retrograde in Pisces. Mercury keeps our focus on reflection and encourages the clearing of the 'emotional baggage' of the past. We don't find the 'traction' that is necessary to support the action that Aries is trying to take. We aren't able to make any sort of tangible headway towards the intensely stirred inspiration that we feel this week, increasing the potential for impatient recklessness driven by the Aries impulses. We may also find ourselves feeling painfully aware of our past mistakes. Jupiter stations direct in Cancer on Tuesday, which only seems to increase our impatience through increasing idealism and expansive aspirations. Whatever we imagine might be possible — our inspired vision — encourages us to act without waiting for proof that our inspiration is achievable — or even desirable. "Let's get this show on the road — whether it's ready or not!". Next week's Pisces New Moon (March 18, 6:23 PM PDT, 28° Pisces), and the subsequent arrival of the Moon and Sun into Aries (the Spring Equinox), will begin to offer us more traction. Through the blending of Pisces inspiration and Aries initiative, we do have the chance to perform miracles. But this week, we are required to take time, without apology, to calm the reckless impulsiveness and find the patience to proceed through the process of reflection that is encouraged by the retrograding Mercury in Pisces.
The sincere maintenance of our relationships to others — and the world around us — is how we can fully integrate the lessons that are offered in Sunday's optimistic atmosphere. There is extraordinary emotional healing and release through a 'flowing blend' of intellect and intuition. Monday offers opportunities for increasing our integration of emotional and intellectual insights that are quite profound but rely on inspiration and an expanded perspective. We are encouraged to share our insights with others. We may have some idea that there's a chance to 'make our dreams come true' on Tuesday but have a hard time actually believing that it is really possible. Both patience and faith are required in an extremely nebulous environment. There is a great deal of inspiration on Wednesday but we don't have any traction to actually move ahead. However, impatience and frustration makes connection with others challenging. At best, Thursday gives us the necessary information to correct mistakes or salvage what may still be valuable from the past. Nonetheless, we are also likely to be painfully aware of past mistakes. Intuition and inspiration only seem to feed impatience. We struggle with feeling misunderstood in some way on Friday which encourages a certain reckless disregard and a lack of awareness of the significant consequences for pushing too hard too fast. We find an important layer of detachment on Saturday. Nonetheless, we need to set aside impatience and reckless impulsiveness in order to make any headway at all.
Sunday March 08, 2026
The Moon forms a Grand Water trine with Mercury and Jupiter early this morning (PDT) that is followed up by the completion of Mercury's trine to Jupiter this evening (10:23 PM PDT). The optimism in this atmosphere is unmistakable and echoes last Fall's extended series of deeply emotional Grand Water Trines. This is offering some extraordinary emotional healing and release through a 'flowing blend' of intellect and intuition. What is perhaps most crucial here is that we must make connections with others in order to demonstrate the lessons we are learning (or have learned) through the process that is underway. In other words, it isn't enough for us to believe that we 'know something', we must actually put it to use by sharing with others in order to fully understand the lessons that are offered. The sincere maintenance of our relationships to others — and the world around us — is how we can fully integrate the lessons that are offered in today's atmosphere.Monday March 09, 2026
The Moon makes an early morning opposition to Uranus (4:27 AM PDT) and then goes briefly VOC until arriving in Sagittarius at 8:36 AM PDT. The importance of yesterday's lessons and insights are amplified by today's Venus-Pluto sextile, further encouraging us to share our insights with others — or actually risk losing any potential benefits from 'what we think we know'. Yesterday's optimism deepens today but may be more difficult to fully trust. Today's increased intensity has us feeling that 'the stakes are getting higher'. The opportunities for increasing our integration of emotional and intellectual insights are quite profound but rely on inspiration and an expanded perspective. The Moon's trines to Neptune, Saturn, and Venus stir a great deal of activity, while the Moon's square to Mars this evening (8:36 PM PDT) increases impatience.Tuesday March 10, 2026
Despite today's Jupiter direct station, our optimism is weighed down by the challenges we run into today. Responsibility is the key to making the most of this challenging environment. The most likely response is to try to pull back to a place of safety or seek some kind of traditional authority to fall back on, rather than doing anything that might cause us to 'stand out from the crowd'. The Moon's square to Mercury (11:58 AM PDT) sets up the indecisive tone for today's uncertainty. Basically, we are finding it difficult to get our bearings under this intense Pisces/Aries cusp influence. We may have some idea that there's a chance to 'make our dreams come true' but have a hard time actually believing that it is really possible. Dreamer or Visionary? Both patience and faith are required in this extremely nebulous environment.Wednesday March 11, 2026
The Moon is VOC for much of the day today — from 2:38 AM PDT until 9:06 PM PDT. There is something of an 'easy come, easy go' attitude but sensitivity is high and misunderstandings are prevalent. The Moon's trine to Chiron and quincunx to Uranus suggests impatience when we make attempts to lend our support to others. Vesta has moved into Pisces, producing a great deal of inspiration but we don't have any traction today to actually move ahead. The Moon's arrival in Capricorn this evening (9:06 PM PDT) only further pushes us to try to 'make something happen' — which only suggests further frustration and impatience.Thursday March 12, 2026
The Moon squares Neptune just after midnight this morning and follows up with a square to Saturn (3:20 AM PDT). The Moon moves on to stir up a great deal of impatience with a square to Venus at about 1 PM PDT. The action of the waning Moon seems to revel in getting us stirred up without giving us any traction to actually make headway. The Moon does make sextiles to Mars (1:15 PM PDT) and the retrograding Mercury (8:07 PM PDT) which only offers suggestions about how we might proceed — but also highlights confusing caveats. The retrograding Mercury is still pointing out to us what needs to be moved out of the way but the now direct Jupiter is encouraging forward movement. At best, today gives us the necessary information to correct mistakes or salvage what may still be valuable from the past. Nonetheless, we are also likely to be painfully aware of past mistakes. Next week's Pisces New Moon (March 18, 6:23 PM PDT, 28° Pisces), and the subsequent arrival of the Moon and Sun into Aries (the Spring Equinox), will begin to offer us more traction.Friday March 13, 2026
Intuition and inspiration only seem to feed impatience today. We struggle with feeling misunderstood in some way which encourages a certain reckless disregard and a lack of awareness of the significant consequences for pushing too hard too fast. Although we may struggle to recognize tangible progress, today's Mars-North Node conjunction in Pisces is a powerful driver for spiritual progress — if we're willing to pay attention. What we can imagine might be possible — our inspired vision — encourages us to act without waiting for proof that our inspiration is achievable — or even desirable. "Let's get this show on the road — whether it's ready or not!". Finding some kind of creative outlet that does not demand quick results will serve to keep our minds active and help us avoid pushing too hard.Saturday March 14, 2026
The Moon makes an early morning trine to Uranus before going briefly VOC until 8:13 AM PDT when it arrives in Aquarius. Today's Aquarius Moon provides an important layer of detachment. Sextiles to Neptune and Saturn, followed by the conjunction to Pluto, at least give us some sense that we have some control of where we're going and what we're doing. Mercury's approaching conjunctions with Mars and the Pisces North Node provide an important level of energy and intellect that can help us to move aside some of the emotional baggage — including the impatience and reckless impulsiveness that has been distracting us all week. We have the chance to perform miracles once we are able to balance between inspiration and a clear, honest, and realistic assessment of what is needed in order to actually make our dreams come true.
Weekly Summary: MARCH 15 - MARCH 21 "The smallest sprout shows there is really no death,
And if ever there was it led forward life, and does not wait at the
end to arrest it,
And ceas'd the moment life appear'd."— Walt Whitman
Song of MyselfWith this Friday's Spring Equinox — the Sun's arrival in Aries — the scales tip toward the Aries side of the Pisces/Aries cusp. By the end of the week, the initiative of Aries is stirred as it draws on the inspired (or potentially delusional) vision of Pisces. We gain a vision of unexplored territory — new horizons and new opportunities — and we become more and more aware of the vast, undeveloped potential that is laid out before us. We will begin to gain traction in the coming weeks and even see some of our goals fall into place spontaneously. Ahead of the Spring Equinox, we arrive at a Pisces New Moon (6:11 PM PDT 28° Pisces) on Wednesday, suggesting a series of endings followed up with new beginnings. The New Moon provides 'water" to nurture the new growth and direction initiated under last month's Saturn-Neptune conjunction — and perhaps even help to stabilize what was 'shaken up' by the Mars-Uranus square which followed close on the heels of the Saturn-Neptune conjunction. We are offered important opportunities to allow the emotional baggage of the past to be washed away by the 'receding waters' of Pisces. A Pisces Moon conjuncts Mercury, Mars, and the North Node and goes on to trine Jupiter, ahead of the New Moon, stirring up a 'frothy' idealism that could quickly develop into rebellious, uncooperative recklessness. The Sun and Moon complete sextiles to Uranus, from Pisces to Taurus, right before the New Moon, further intensifying the rebelliousness and seeding an intense desire for freedom as well as the release from past restrictions. The ingress into Aries by both the Sun and Moon (as well as the later ingress of Mars and Mercury) must proceed though the daunting gauntlet of conjunctions with both Neptune and Saturn. Essentially, our initiatives will be 'dissolved' (Neptune) and then 'reconstituted' (Saturn) before we can finally take definitive action. What we do find here is fertile ground for making plans, as well as important opportunities to identify any weaknesses in those plans. It is a time for organizing our thoughts, identifying our strengths and weakness, and seeking the cooperation of potential new allies. The Moon quickly moves into Aries after the New Moon and crosses the 'gauntlet' set by Neptune and Saturn at the beginning of Aries, setting the stage for the Sun's arrival in Aries to mark the Spring Equinox on Friday. The Spring Equinox coincides with Mercury's direct station conjunct the Pisces North Node. Mercury's retrograde path has provided an important opportunity to reflect on where we are and how we got here. The retrograde Mercury, which ruled the Virgo Full Moon Eclipse (3:37 AM PST 12° Virgo/Pisces) back on March 3rd, provided support for additional investigation to compliment the process of reflection. Mercury's conjunction with Mars at the beginning of this week opened a significant new round of dialog to explore our investigations but, in Pisces, is ultimately rather circumspect and restrained. However, Mercury will reconnect with Mars in Aries by the middle of April as they work their way through the Saturn-Neptune 'gauntlet'. In that context, the budding awareness, as fostered by the process of reflection and investigation, that is only being 'whispered' — and potentially incorporated into our planning — this week will sharpen and intensify, finding a decisive, persistent and 'full throated' voice by the middle of next month.
Even though it will still take some time for the Piscean 'fog' to clear away, we can recognize some intriguing and important new threads of thinking to pursue on Sunday. However, we are only on the 'precipice' of the shift towards definitive action. Monday provides us with important opportunities to allow the emotional baggage of the past to be washed away. There is potential for both frustration and new initiatives to surface. We are likely stirred up with a rather 'frothy' idealism on Tuesday that can quickly turn to rebellious, uncooperative recklessness. What is called for is the 'light hand' of detached transcendence. We find fertile ground for making plans on Wednesday, as well as important opportunities to identify any weaknesses in those plans. It is a time for organizing our thoughts, identifying our strengths and weakness, and seeking the cooperation of potential new allies. Deep reflection is extremely well supported on Thursday. However, we will still struggle to find our footing and experience a dip in our overall confidence. We find a vision of unexplored territory — new horizons and new opportunities on Friday. While there may be a great deal of confusion, we find ourselves more and more aware of the vast, undeveloped potential that is laid out before us. There is a stirring of an extraordinary level of energy and optimism on Saturday. However, it is not an easy environment to manage effectively and could certainly spin out of our control quite quickly.
Sunday March 15, 2026
Mercury completes the conjunction with Mars early this morning, just after 1 AM PDT, activating a significant round of new dialog today. As Mercury slows down to station direct conjunct the Pisces North Node on Friday, we're finding opportunities to 'wind up' a process of 'review and reflection' that was initiated by Mercury's retrograde motion. Even though it will still take some time for the Piscean 'fog' to clear away, many of us are able to recognize some intriguing and important new threads of thinking to pursue that can open us to a new world of possibilities. However, even though today's Aquarius Moon is providing some helpful detachment, idealism is still extremely high. We are only on the 'precipice' of the shift towards definitive action. Today's 'talk' may be encouraging but we should not mistake it for the 'last word'.Monday March 16, 2026
Today's Moon-Uranus square, just before 1 PM PDT this afternoon, brings subtle echoes of last month's Mars-Uranus square — suggesting both frustration and new initiatives. The Moon goes VOC after squaring Uranus, arriving in Pisces at 4:15 PM PDT this afternoon. We can begin to feel the first small waves of Wednesday's Pisces New Moon (6:11 PM PDT 28° Pisces). The upcoming New Moon will provide 'water" to nurture the new growth and direction initiated under last month's Saturn-Neptune conjunction — and perhaps even help to stabilize what was 'shaken up' by the follow-up Mars-Uranus square. Today provides us with important opportunities to allow the emotional baggage of the past to be washed away by the 'receding waters' of Pisces.Tuesday March 17, 2026
The Moon moves over the North Node this morning and goes on to conjunct Mercury and Mars early in the day, following up with a Moon-Jupiter trine this evening (7:18 PM PDT). We are likely stirred up with a rather 'frothy' idealism today that can quickly turn to rebellious, uncooperative recklessness. What is called for here is the 'light hand' of detached transcendence. We are likely to believe that we have far more freedom than we actually have. However, the self-sufficiency in today's atmosphere is illusory. Tomorrow's Pisces New Moon (6:11 PM PDT 28° Pisces), in a tight sextile to Uranus, will set us off on an entirely new course that is impossible to see from today's vantage point. The New Moon, followed up by Mercury's direct station on Friday, will begin to provide the sort of traction that we can only dream of today.Wednesday March 18, 2026
The Sun and Moon complete sextiles to Uranus right before this evening's Pisces New Moon (6:11 PM PDT 28° Pisces), seeding an intense desire for freedom and the release from past restrictions. The Moon gets to Aries at 9:02 PM PDT this evening, foreshadowing the Spring Equinox on Friday that will coincide with the direct station of Mercury. The stirring of new initiatives today is profound. However, the ingress into Aries of both the Sun and Moon (as well as the later ingress of Mars and Mercury) must proceed though the daunting gauntlet of conjunctions with both Neptune and Saturn. Essentially, our initiatives will be 'dissolved' (Neptune) and then 'reconstituted' (Saturn) before we can finally take definitive action. What we do find here is fertile ground for making plans, as well as important opportunities to identify any weaknesses in those plans. It is a time for organizing our thoughts, identifying our strengths and weakness, and seeking the cooperation of potential new allies.Thursday March 19, 2026
The Moon crosses over the Saturn-Neptune 'gauntlet' early this morning before heading toward this evening's Moon-Jupiter square. We may find ourselves feeling somewhat circumspect today but also perhaps a bit too confident. This is a day of endings as the Sun moves over the last degree of Pisces. There are few inclinations to assume any accountability, responsibility, or to take any true initiative today. On the other hand, deep reflection is extremely well supported by Mercury's station conjunct the North Node in Pisces. Although we can certainly sense or intuit the initiatory power that is beginning to pulse through us, we will still struggle to find our footing for the next few days. For some, this may feel like a dip in our overall confidence. Nonetheless, it is important to stay connected to the shifts that are underway and take comfort that the time for action is nearly upon us.Friday March 20, 2026
Mercury stations direct today in conjunction with the North Node in Pisces as the Sun reaches Aries — marking the Spring Equinox. The scale has tipped towards the Aries side of the Pisces/Aries cusp. We are now in a waxing lunar phase, stirring action while drawing on the inspired vision of Pisces. As we gain more traction, we can begin to see things fall into place spontaneously. The Moon's conjunction with Chiron this afternoon provides us with a vision of unexplored territory — new horizons and new opportunities. The Sun is approaching a conjunction to Neptune that will complete by Sunday morning. Of course, the Sun-Neptune conjunction can produce a great deal of confusion as we find ourselves more and more aware of the vast, undeveloped potential that is laid out before us. Nonetheless, with an inner awareness of our overall purpose, today provides us with a great deal of drive and energy to move ahead.Saturday March 21, 2026
Mars forms a trine to Jupiter today while Saturn begins to form a sextile to Pluto that will complete by the end of next week. This is stirring an extraordinary level of energy, optimism, and a dramatic increase in the pace of transformational change. The Moon arrived in Taurus just before midnight last night and forms a square to Pluto early this morning (7:55 AM PDT), setting the tone for the profound transformation coming through today's activity. Today's challenge is matching our energy levels and enthusiasm with a clear, determined sense of direction. This is not an easy environment to manage effectively and could certainly spin out of our control quite quickly. In essence, the 'lid' is off and we need to maintain our focus on long range goals. While the Taurus Moon does offer some help to keep us grounded, we must apply our individual awareness to what we ultimately want to accomplish or we will simply find ourselves overwhelmed and 'out of control'.
