From March 20th to the 26th we do turn over a new leaf, but the past sticks to us like a wad of gum to the sole of our shoe.
Basically, none of the recurring memories can be discarded. Everything remembered from the past must be addressed. Some things need a little attention, some things need a lot. Remembering who our real audience helps us prioritize our time and actions. Mental peace comes by letting go and moving on.
20th – Monday – Sun Contra-parallel Mercury, Sun Sextile Pluto, the Sun enters Aries at 5:26 PM EDT
There is lots of talks, but not so much direct action. Still, there are plans being hatched. A lofty vision of the possible, coupled with determination, can lead to scribbling notes for future adventures that we will put into action in the coming period.
21st – Tuesday – Jupiter Semi-square Saturn, the New Moon is at 1:24 PM EDT on the first degree of Aries
The first trial balloon runs into headwinds. We aren’t on the road we think we have chosen. Luckily, we have clear signals that this is the time to change course. Now we must be pliable to see our way through. All talk and no action won’t get us very far, but it is important to synchronize our timing with others and the reality of conditions in the environment.
22nd – Wednesday – Sun Semi-square Uranus, Mercury Semi-sextile Venus, Sun Semi-sextile Saturn
Bottled-up enthusiasm must be released in an organized and measured fashion to be productive. A flash of inspiration can be captured and used efficiently if we are observant and recognize the angel of innovation when she lands on our shoulders.
23rd – Thursday – Pluto enters Aquarius, Mercury Contra-parallel Neptune-
The snake is shedding his skin. Will he develop a new layer genetically the same as the old one? Regardless of the outcome, it is essential that each be true to the higher nature. A glimpse into our new reality is possible. Seeing the top of the mountain is different than actually being there. On the other hand, “seeing is believing.”
24th – Friday – The weather report, the temperament of the day, is relaxed.
Our habits and daily routines can give the instructions. We need to enjoy the day and keep moving. A few hiccups are an ironic foreshadowing of coming events.
25th – Saturday – Mars enters Cancer, Mars Quincunx Pluto, Venus Semi-square Neptune –
Feelings and impulses are unreliable guides. When we feel the world is working against us, we need to see that the real conflict is inner. We are at war. Basic habits are dug in and our inner prompting is to move into a higher alternative. The universe is there to liberate us.
26th – Sunday – Mercury Parallel Jupiter –
Some behind-the-scenes reorganization allows us to approach the task at hand with renewed vigor. The obvious path in front of us creates opportunities to apply personal ideals and beliefs to the ongoing events in our current life. Mixed outcomes create a breeding ground for self-revision.
