Suppressed Desires Surface
This week’s headline items: Venus exits its post-Shadow phase on Tuesday late evening; the New Moon in Pisces becomes exact on Wednesday early afternoon; the Sun squares the Solar Eclipse degree (from Dec. 4th, 2021) on Wednesday evening; Mercury squares the Moon Nodes on Thursday early afternoon; Mars and Venus both change signs from Capricorn to Aquarius on Sunday very early morning, creating a conjunction soon after at 0º Aquarius.
There will only be three Moon VoC phases this week: Monday late evening (for almost 19 hours); Thursday late afternoon (a little over 3 hours); and Saturday late evening (4 hours).
Now, this week’s Forecast…
Monday, February 28th:
Monday, the Moon remains in freedom-loving, forward-thinking Aquarius all day. The energy of the Aquarian Moon relates to our instinct for improvement. Reactions are more intellectual than emotional; interactions more impersonal than personal. We are likely to have an increased fascination with the new and unusual.
Social gatherings, anything connected with group ideals and goals for the future, brainstorming, new ideas and methods, progress: all these are promoted during the time the Moon moves through Aquarius. Again: we have our eyes on the future — or on outer space 🙂 Personal freedom becomes paramount.
Monday morning presents an opportunity to connect with others and engage in a healing process that can bring us progress (Moon in Aquarius sextiles Chiron in Aries, exact at 7:07am EST)
Also on Monday morning, we may feel pulled in two quite different directions: On the one hand, we experience a need for connecting with like-minded people and remaining objective; on the other hand, we want to make space for pursuing our financial vision — and we also want to break free from outdated value systems.
As such, we may have to address what we value, both in others and in ourselves (which informs our self-worth); as best as you can, make adjustments and find creative solutions when it comes to these energies. (Moon in Aquarius squares Uranus in Taurus, exact at 8:50am EST)
Monday afternoon, if you are already awake, connect with others, and share your vision for the future. Could you permit yourself to get in touch with your unique spark — and communicate your inner genius? (Moon in Aquarius conjuncts Mercury in Aquarius, exact at 5:11pm EST)
Monday at 9:01pm EST, we enter a Moon Void of Course (VoC), for almost 14 hours, until 3:53pm EST (Tuesday afternoon). Use this intuitive time to focus on a long-term vision for your communities that involves a mature and realistic approach. As best as you can, take your time, and do your best to come from a place of integrity.
As always with a Moon VoC, as best as you can, don’t start anything brand-new, stick to routine things, or simply go with the flow. You may also want to plan Monday late evening until Tuesday afternoon ahead of time.

Tuesday, March 1st:
Tuesday, the Moon remains in freedom-loving, forward-thinking Aquarius and VoC until 3:53pm EST (see Monday for details).
Tuesday afternoon, at 3:53pm EST, the Moon moves into creative, sensitive Pisces, where it will journey until Thursday evening. This Moon placement often finds us more sensitive, intuitive, idealistic, and imaginative than normal. We also have a greater capacity for compassion, sympathy, and affection for all — but especially for those who suffer or can be regarded as the underdog.
But… that very idealism could also be our downfall at this time: We tend to see the best in everyone and everything, and when reality doesn’t match our idyllic vision, we might feel upset and even victimized by those harsh realities. A way out of this is to channel our idealism into spiritual or creative endeavors.
It’s also a great time for releasing fears — especially the ones based on a sense of separation — and experiencing “oneness”. Feelings tend to flow more freely; as best as you can, let them — in fact, “going with the flow” is the best way to go for the next couple of days.
Neptune is the ruler of Pisces — and it is currently in its own sign, making these next two days a great time to take a look at our inner spiritual connection to our “higher Self”, “Source”, “God/Goddess”.
It’s also a great time to allow all there is, as it is, and to go with the flow, following our intuitive voice as much as possible. We are being asked to tap into the “feminine” energies within ourselves so we can start to vibrate on a universal frequency. Ask yourself: Is my “higher Self” asking for more introverted/inner love-time? If I tune in with my intuitive voice, what am I receiving? Sensing?
Where in my life have I become too disconnected from life? Love? God/Goddess? What is my connection to the spiritual realm? What about the “heart realm”? How could nature and/or animals teach me about those realms?
Do I need more downtime? More resting-time? More compassion? How might being kind to myself, and trusting the process of Life create a more loving connection with the universe? This Moon placement also starts the build-up towards the New Moon (exact Wednesday early afternoon).
Tuesday evening, at 9:30pm EST, Venus’ post-Shadow phase ends. As you may recall, I mentioned the Venus Shadow Phases 4.5 weeks ago, on January 29th, when the planet was stationing direct, and here is a reminder:
If you want to start new relationships or collaborations or want to purchase something that is really important to you, it’s best to avoid the periods before Venus goes retrograde and after Venus goes direct; this is especially true if related to products, services, or experiences that are connected to beauty, finances, art, or anything that delights the five senses.
The good news is, this Shadow phase ends today (Tuesday) when Venus reaches 26º29’ of Capricorn; this means that we can finally go ahead and start those new collaborations — or move “old” ones to the next level — or buy that new massage table, painting, or anything else related to beauty or art. We can also more easily receive new financial advice. Connecting, collaborating, and accumulating abundance (of whatever kind) will all go better now.
Do you have your Ascendant or Sun-sign in Taurus or Libra? If so, you may feel quite excited to be making new connections and moving financial or relationship issues to the next level. If you know where you have Taurus and Libra in your birth chart, or where your natal Venus is placed, all of those houses (areas of life) will be ready for receiving new collaborations or financial support.
Tuesday night/Wednesday very early morning, an opportune Sun/Uranus aspect becomes exact at 12:05am EST. We started to feel this aspect build from Sunday night on, and it will remain strong until Thursday evening. We have the opportunity to become aware of an original or unique approach to life. Flexibility is the key to success at this time; pleasant changes may be in store — certainly unexpected ones 😉
Ask yourself: What is my unique value? How could I tune into that gently and consistently?If I did tune in, is it at least possible that I could then be in more perfect alignment with my values? My sense of worth?
What if the whole Universe was intelligent? What if that included every cell in my body? What knowledge would my body want to share with me?
As best as you can, watch out for those messages from the Universe! Remember: an opportunity is not automatically given to us: We have to “realize” it.
Do you have your Ascendant, Career Point (or personal planets) in 9-14 degrees of Pisces, Taurus, Cancer, or Capricorn? If so, you will be more aware of this opportunity. This is also true for those of us who have our Ascendant or Sun-sign in Leo or Aquarius (the Sun rules Leo; Uranus rules Aquarius).
Tuesday is also the last day before the New Moon in Pisces becomes exact. This is a great day to let go of what no longer serves us. As best as you can, avoid jumping the gun: Rather than launching into brand-new endeavors or connections, wait until a couple of days have passed after the New Moon (and if you haven’t seen it yet, click here to watch my New Moon video).
Some of us might feel a little anxious or nervous today: As best as you can, get quiet and go within… Listen to the silence between the sounds… Find peace in the connection with your innermost and truest Self.
Wednesday, March 2nd:
Wednesday, the Moon remains in creative, sensitive Pisces all day (see Tuesday afternoon for details).
Wednesday late morning, a Mercury/Saturn alignment in 19 degrees of Aquarius becomes exact at 11:33am EST. We started to feel this aspect build from Monday morning on, and it will remain strong until Friday evening. This connection strengthens our ability to make realistic decisions connected to our need for progress and collaboration. We are more able to come from a place of integrity and maturity when planning anything long-term.
We prefer to have serious conversations with others that move us forward, closer to a common goal. It’s an excellent period for reviewing, reassessing, perfecting, and improving our thinking patterns, future visions, and collective goals. Even though we might have a more negative or critical outlook initially, this alignment serves the purpose of reaching a balanced, mature, and realistic state.
Do you have your Ascendant, Career Point (MC), or personal planets in 16-22 degrees of Aquarius, Leo, Taurus, or Scorpio? If so, you will feel this alignment quite strongly. This is also true for those of us who have our Ascendant or Sun-sign in Gemini, Virgo, or Capricorn (Mercury is the ruler of Gemini and Virgo; Saturn is the ruler of Capricorn).
Wednesday early afternoon, at 12:35pm EST, the Moon aligns with the Sun in 12 degrees of Pisces, marking the beginning of a new Moon cycle. Feel free to also watch my New Moon video on the subject
Because New Moons mark the ending and beginning of a monthly cycle, they are an optimal time to pause, reflect, and set new Intentions for the next 28 days.
This New Moon chart has four planets in Pisces — a line up (aka Stellium) that includes the Sun, the Moon, Jupiter, and Neptune; the New Moon & Jupiter also sextile Uranus in Taurus. The Sun squares December’s Solar Eclipse degree several hours after the New Moon becomes exact, which signifies a turning point.
There is also a second lineup in this New Moon chart that takes place in Capricorn and includes Venus, Mars, and Pluto. And since those three planets answer to Saturn right now (Saturn being the ruler of Capricorn), we must also mention the current Saturn-Mercury conjunction in Aquarius.
All of this will bring some forward movement. The next four weeks are thus essential in our lives on both the personal and collective levels. In fact, new beginnings are possible on multiple levels, as long as we get enough rest and make time for tuning in. I will go into all of this in more detail in a moment, but first, let’s start with the Stellium in Pisces:
Pisces invites us to connect with our inner divinity, and with our ability to receive, trust our intuition, and contribute to life from a heart-centered and empathic place.
Pisces is the last sign of the zodiac, and thus connects us to our spiritual journey, as it represents a reunion with Source/God/the Universe. At its highest vibration, Pisces unifies all dualities — it is completely aware of the oneness of all. It tells us there is a union within, that exists always, and that we can tap into it.
To move into a higher, lighter Pisces vibration, ask yourself the following questions:… To read the whole article and get all the Coaching Questions for this month’s New Moon, click here.
Do you have your Ascendant or any personal planets in 10-14 degrees of Pisces, Virgo, Gemini or Sagittarius? If so, you may feel the effects of this New Moon more strongly for the next 28 days. This is also true for those of us who have our Ascendant or Sun-sign in Leo or Cancer (the Sun rules Leo; the Moon rules Cancer).
The New Moon is also the best time to set some powerful intentions for this month’s Moon cycle. This is best done soon after the New Moon becomes exact — and definitely not during a Moon void of course phase — so this month, the best time to set intentions would be between 12:35pm on March 2nd and 4:45pm on March 3rd, and then again from 7:52pm on March 3rd until 12:35pm on March 4th (New York-time)

Wednesday evening, at around 7pm EST, the Sun squares Solar Eclipse degree (from Dec. 4th, 2021 – 12.5º of Sagittarius) when it reaches 12.5º of Pisces. This signals a potential turning point in our collective perceptions, expectations, and assumptions. Watch for important insights and developments today.
Our direct experience is our most valuable resource, especially if we also allow ourselves to listen to the subtle messages of our intuitive voice.
How has your perception of yourself, others, and life shifted since Dec. 4th? If you really stop and check, might you be ready to trust your inner experience and knowingness a little more than previously?
Ask yourself: What am I aware of right now that would shift my perspective if I allowed myself to “feel into it”? What (or who) might bring about this shift? What might I see if I were looking at the bigger picture? What do I sense when I take a moment to tune into my heart?
Recently, I have been mentioning the Squares to the Eclipse points in my Weekly Forecasts, and I go into this subject even more deeply in my latest webinar: “Turning Points – Squares to the Eclipses”. Click here to purchase this webinar, if you haven’t seen it yet.
Thursday, March 3rd:
Thursday, the Moon remains in creative, sensitive Pisces until 7:52pm EST (see Tuesday afternoon for details).
Thursday very early morning, a Mars/Pluto alignment in almost 28 degrees of Capricorn becomes exact at 3:43am EST. We started to feel this aspect build from last week, Saturday evening (Feb. 26th) on, and it will remain strong until next week, Monday morning (March 7th).
This alignment connects our personal will to the Universal Will. If we feel the need to connect to something, we will feel it passionately, especially when it comes to our long-term goals and our public image.
We may feel impatient (or even obsessive) right now about our career goals. Suppressed desires surface; we will need to act on them, one way or another. Watch out for taking that action from a fearful, reactive, or controlling place. Managing our anger or rage more consciously might be part of this transit as well.
If you are able to connect to that passion — body and soul — you will be able to move towards a much higher goal. This may be a goal that is truly connected to the whole of you, perhaps even to your Soul Purpose for this lifetime.
Mars last aligned with Pluto in late March of 2020; unresolved issues from that period can now move to the next level. What were you up to back then? Where do you need to direct more self-awareness? Where are we still giving our power away to authority figures? How are we disempowering ourselves or others, simply because we are trying to shield ourselves from future harm or worst-case scenario?
Do you have your Ascendant, Career Point (MC), or personal planets in the following placements: 25-29 degrees of Capricorn, Cancer, Aries, or Libra, or 0-1 degrees of Aquarius, Leo, Taurus, or Scorpio? If so, you will feel the effects of this aspect more strongly than otherwise.
This is also true for those of us who have our Ascendant or Sun-sign in Aries or Scorpio (Mars is the ruler of Aries, so those folks will always be affected more strongly by Mars’s movements and aspects; Pluto is the ruler of Scorpio, so they likewise feel Pluto’s movements and aspects more strongly)
Thursday early afternoon, around 12:15pm EST, Mercury squares the Moon Nodes (24º52’ of Taurus-Scorpio) when Mercury reaches (24º52’ of Aquarius). Squares ask for a shift in perception and direction; they challenge us to go beyond our survival strategies and allow ourselves to stay objective and detached in our thinking.
Squares also mark turning points — and with this one we are being asked to take a 90-degree turn, visualizing a future we want to live into, versus a future we are afraid of.
We must make a perceptual shift in order to move forward — and this one is a turning point in our thinking — we must balance our need for physical comforts against more authentic, emotional connections — those that support a deeper understanding of our past traumas and support us in moving beyond them into a future that provides stability and abundance.
Ask yourself: What would it make possible for me if I got really clear about what future I would like to live into? How does my day-to-day thinking contribute to connecting my mind, body, and my heart? How does my thinking keep me separate from others? From myself? My body? My heart?
If I allow myself to keep my heart wide open, what is my vision for humanity’s future? What would visualizing such a future with non-attachment look like? How might a more collaborative approach support such a vision? How might doing those things serve me?
We must also find a balance between inner processes and outer focus.
Since we are dealing with a lot of Fixed Signs here, it would be futile to get too attached to thoughts, visions, pride, emotional connections, comforts, habits, opinions, etc.
Thursday early afternoon, a Venus/Pluto alignment in almost 28 degrees of Capricorn becomes exact at 12:56pm EST. We started to feel this aspect build from last week Sunday evening (Feb. 27th); it will remain strong until this week Sunday evening. This alignment brings out our passionate side. We uncompromisingly seek deep, totally authentic connections with others.
Our instincts are very strong right now, our inner wolf is wide-awake, and we can sniff out any unclean intentions right away. As best as you can, be completely truthful about your motivations and needs – if you try to duck this, it could get ugly, since everyone knows what everyone else is up to anyway.
What if you took 100% responsibility for getting what you want and need? What is the highest path to achieve that? As best as you can, find creative solutions and remain flexible. And as always when Pluto is involved, choose the power of love over the power of fear — whenever possible.
Here are some questions you can ask yourself: What if I became 5% more aware of my personal power? Where might I have given it away to others? And how might I begin to reclaim it? Where do I still look outside of myself for permission or approval? For what’s “right” or “wrong”?
What fears or concerns do I need to let go of to have more of what I really want? Am I living to protect myself from long-term harm or worst-case scenarios? Or with an open heart, feeling empowered in my daily choices?
Do you have your Ascendent, Career Point (or any personal planets) in the following placements: 25-29 degrees of Capricorn, Cancer, Aries, or Libra, or 0-1 degrees of Aquarius, Leo, Taurus, or Scorpio?? If so, you will feel this alignment quite strongly. This is also true for those of us who have our Ascendant or Sun-sign in Taurus, Libra, or Scorpio (Venus is the ruler of Taurus and Libra; Pluto rules Scorpio)
Thursday before 4:45pm and after 7:52pm EST, you still have time to set your New Moon Intentions for this month — if you haven’t already done so on Wednesday afternoon or evening. If possible, align them with the New Moon energies that I spoke about in my video — feel free to watch it again if you are not sure anymore — click here to watch my video on the New Moon

Thursday late afternoon, at 4:45pm EST, we enter a Moon Void of Course (VoC), for a little over 3 hours, until 7:52pm EST. Use this intuitive time as an opportunity to tap into your intuitive and imaginative abilities — then focus anew on your long-term goals.
As always with a Moon VoC, as best as you can, don’t start anything brand-new, stick to routine things, or simply go with the flow. You may also want to plan Thursday from the late afternoon until the evening ahead of time.
Thursday evening, at 7:52pm EST, the Moon moves into pioneering, fast-paced Aries, where it will journey until Sunday very early morning. Life is an adventure, we’re more open to new ideas, and have great enthusiasm for new projects. Patience is certainly not our strong suit at this time, but we can decide quickly, and act immediately.
Our independence and dynamism are important to us right now, so we may find it hard to be disciplined or accept advice at this time; in general, our responses to others tend to be more assertive or even aggressive. If you find your foot tapping, try hitting the gym, or finding other ways to burn off the body’s excess energy.
Friday, March 4th:
Friday, the Moon remains in pioneering, fast-paced Aries all day (see Thursday evening for details).
Friday until 12:35pm EST: If you haven’t gotten around to it yet, set your Intentions for this Moon cycle… If possible, align them with the New Moon energies that I spoke about in my video — feel free to watch it again if you are not sure anymore — click here to watch my video on the New Moon
For more details on how to set New Moon Intentions, click here
Friday afternoon has lots of potential for healing around family, the “mother archetype”, home, and our past in general. We may feel more sensitive and insecure about what we identify with, and around our ability to be assertive; this gives us the opportunity to give ourselves some compassion, acceptance, and nurturing in the face of our sensitivities and limitations. (Moon in Aries conjuncts Chiron in Aries, exact at 3:12pm EST)
Saturday, March 5th:
Saturday, the Moon remains in pioneering, fast-paced Aries all day (see Thursday evening for details).
Saturday morning, a Sun/Jupiter alignment in almost 15 degrees of Pisces becomes exact at 9:06am EST. We started to feel this aspect build from Tuesday morning on, and it will remain strong until next week, Tuesday evening (Mar. 8th). This is the start of a “new you” with more confidence and faith. We have a chance to create a world of expansion and personal growth when tapping into our inner knowing — our heart-connection to “Source-energy”.
We feel optimistic — and that helps us attract positive circumstances. If you’ve been thinking about launching a new long-term project, this would be an excellent time to do so; this is especially true for projects connected to the Pisces energy — some examples would be anything involving spiritual or creative endeavors, projects connected to dream work or the unconscious (like therapy), music — anything connected to spirit or things that take us away from the real world — a very different example would be the pharmaceutical industry. You may well feel more vital, confident, and optimistic when it comes to those projects, you may even want to combine them with cultural exchanges and education.
If we don’t channel all this energy into something that elevates our mind and soul, we may become restless or anxious, so ask yourself: Where does all this intuitive, feeling-energy coming through want to go? How might I use it to my advantage? Could I use it to go beyond what I’ve known myself to be?
This aspect also gives us an opportunity to release “old” belief systems or any conditioned thought patterns (socially conditioned or from our upbringing) to do with our connection to the divine and intuitive.
Ask yourself: What was the collective narrative growing up when it comes to “resting”? To being still? Tuning in? Intuition? Inner guidance?
Could I allow myself to release some of those “old” conditioned beliefs and step into a more conscious relationship with the divine? With Intuition? Trusting my inner knowing? Allowing myself to see the perfection of all of life? The unfolding?
Could I allow myself to slow down now and then, without distractions, so I can tune in and listen to the subtle messages of my higher Self? And maybe receive more of the guidance that is always available to me?
Do you have your Ascendant, Career Point (or personal planets) in 11-18 degrees of Pisces, Virgo, Gemini, or Sagittarius? If so, you will feel this alignment quite strongly. This is also true for those of us who have our Ascendant or Sun-sign in Leo or Sagittarius (the Sun rules Leo; Jupiter rules Sagittarius).
Saturday late evening, at 11:02pm EST, we enter a Moon Void of Course (VoC), for 4 hours, until 3am EST. If you are awake during this intuitive time, make some adjustments and find creative ways to work with the energies at play: On the one hand, as best as you can, follow your inner compass and take care of your own needs; on the other hand, deepen your authentic connection to whatever you are building long-term.
As always with a Moon VoC, as best as you can, don’t start anything brand-new, stick to routine things, or simply go with the flow. You may also want to plan Saturday late evening until Sunday very early morning ahead of time.
Sunday, March 6th:
Sunday, the Moon remains in pioneering, fast-paced Aries and VoC until 3am EST (see Thursday evening & Saturday late evening for details).
Sunday very early morning, at 1:23am EST, Mars changes signs from ambitious, goal-oriented Capricorn to freedom-loving, forward-thinking Aquarius, where it will journey until April 14th. During this time we enjoy surprising ourselves and others. The tried-and-true methods of getting things done are far too boring for us right now.
We are looking for unique and original goals, and we tend to have a rather original, forward-thinking view of the world now. What if you suddenly said “surprise yourself”, when you were least expecting it? 😉
Mental and intellectual pursuits are important to us now. The Aquarian ideal of equality is strong with this position, so we also place a lot of value in freedom and individuality — our own and that of others.
With Mars in this fixed sign, we will definitely need our independence, especially in personal relationships — and we are not easily pushed around. However, we do love connecting with like-minded people at this time (in person or online), so if you have a special cause or community project that you like to engage in, go for it!
It’s best to give ourselves and others lots of space; if we feel boxed in, we may rebel or act contrary. In general, we may feel a desire to push our agenda on others — not in an aggressive way, though… more in a creative manner.
As best as you can, bring a sense of openness to your approach to people and situations. Be aware of feeling superior to others: if you find yourself thinking that someone (or a “class” or group of people) is less “special” than you, put your hand over your heart and ask “what would my heart say to this?”
The last time Mars journeyed through Aquarius was April-May 2020. Think back to those times: what got initiated around then? How could you move that to the next level?
If you have an Aries Sun-sign or Rising-sign, you are going to feel more detached, forward-thinking, and freedom-loving. You may want to change things in your life that have outlived their use. If you are an Aquarius Sun-sign or Rising sign, you will feel quite energized for the next 6 weeks. Channeling this energy into physical exercise or projects with like-minded people might be advisable.
Sunday very early morning, at 1:30am EST, Venus changes signs from productive, accomplishment-oriented Capricorn to freedom-oriented, forward-thinking Aquarius, where it will journey until April 5th. This requires that we provide more freedom in our relationships. Basically, we want to improve them, break away from what feels old or stale.
We want our intellectual qualities to be admired; we also want to connect to like-minded people that share our vision so friendships and networking will be favored for the next 4 weeks. We may consider unusual financial investments. This is a good time for financial undertakings involving the following areas: electronics, technology, the internet, metaphysics, the arts, and group activities.
Do you have your Ascendant or Sun-sign in Aquarius? If so, this placement will bring extra love and beauty into your life. Do you have your Ascendant or Sun-sign in Taurus or Libra? If so, you may feel the need for freedom or change in your relationships more strongly.
Sunday very early morning, the second of two Venus/Mars alignments becomes exact at 2:12am EST. The first conjunction took place in 17º of Capricorn on Feb. 16th. The second is exact in 0º of Aquarius (an exalted degree). We started to feel this aspect build from Feb. 8th on; it will remain strong until March 21st (an unusually long time, due to Venus’ Station + Retrograde phases in Dec./Jan./Feb.). This is a very passionate combination: action and receptivity, assertiveness and allowing.
This alignment represents a marriage of courage and collaboration, inviting us to allow the masculine (active/doing/asserting) and feminine (receiving/allowing/being) to work together — in an unusual, yet collaborative way.
Ask yourself: Where do I need to be more courageous when it comes to my communities or networks? What if I responded to situations in a way that is inclusive and serves all those involved? What would it look like if I celebrated and leveraged my courage and any collaborations with like-minded people?
Given that this second combo is taking place in 0º of Aquarius — an exalted degree, and the same degree where we had the Jupiter-Saturn conjunction on December 21st, 2020! This is a big deal! A new beginning — a new era!
The Jupiter-Saturn alignment started a 20-year social-economic cycle, that now gets reemphasized on a more personal and individual level via the Venus-Mars alignment — asking us to collaborate with others and keep a vision or a dream for a better future alive in each of us.
==> Feel free to learn more about the Jupiter-Saturn conjunction in Aquarius (as this relates to your own birth chart) here
Venus and Mars normally follow an approximately 2-year cycle, but due to Venus’s Retrograde phase in late 2021/early 2022, the last Venus-Mars cycle has been a short one — only 6 months. However, the next Venus-Mars alignment will not be until 2024, and will also be in Aquarius – so the individual desire for a better, more collaborative, all-inclusive future will be felt for quite a while.
Ask yourself: How might I, as an individual, shape the future of the collective experience? What collaborations might help bring about a better future for all? What actions (large or small) could I take to bring about this vision of an all-inclusive experience for all beings? What roles do “tolerance” and “diversity” play in all of this?
There are some things to watch out for too: being too detached and unfeeling about individual humans, and thus applying peer pressure or inflexible dogmatic visions that don’t honor them but instead ask them to sacrifice themselves for the greater vision or the group.
Ask yourself: Could I notice when my thoughts drift toward thoughts that create separation or seclusion? Can I make an effort to focus on things that support community, collaboration, and diversity?
The last time we experienced this alignment was in Leo, back in July 2021 (the one before then, was an alignment in Virgo, back in late August 2019): Was there a new beginning back then, in regards to how your feminine and masculine energies operate and collaborate? What has shifted for you since then?
Do you have your Ascendant, Career Point (or personal planets) in the following: 0-14 degrees of Aquarius, Leo, Taurus, or Scorpio, or 14-29 degrees of Capricorn, Cancer, Aries, or Libra? If so, you will be more affected by this alignment. This is also true for those of us who have our Ascendant or Sun-sign in Taurus, Libra, or Aries (Venus is the ruler of Taurus and Libra; Mars is the ruler of Aries)
Sunday at 3am EST, the Moon moves into steady, peaceful Taurus, where it will journey until next week, Tuesday early afternoon (Mach 8th). We love all physical comforts, prefer consistency, and would rather stick with what we know works well.
In other words: change is not our favorite thing and “rushing things” goes against our grain. What is our favorite thing for the next two days? It’s probably, slowing down and getting in touch with whatever delights our senses 😉
And…
A heads up for next Monday (March 7th): The Moon remains in steady, peaceful Taurus all day. It’s also time to start to take action on your New Moon intentions from Monday morning on. The Moon in Taurus conjuncts Uranus, exact at 1:38am EST; it sextiles Jupiter in Pisces, exact at 8:49am EST; it squares Saturn in Aquarius, exact at 4:56pm EST; and it sextiles Neptune in Pisces, exact at 11:03pm EST. More about all the details in next week’s forecast : )
