This week is filled with introspection and renewed inspiration. The New Moon in Pisces opens us up to the coming eclipse cycle and is a precursor to the March eclipses that will bring big energy to the fore. The New Moon features a square with Jupiter which culminates with the Sun coming into an exact square at the end of the week.
The big topic at hand is spirituality – how we attain it, how we access it for ourselves and who we learn it from. The Sun square Jupiter ushers in an important time when we reconsider the spiritual practices and lessons that we have learned up until now to synthesize for ourselves our inner truth along with that of an external order. Inner authority, which is represented by the Sun coming into a difficult pattern with Jupiter, forces us to adjust our own beliefs due to specific information that we learn or pick up throughout the week.
The New Moon plants the new consciousness that inevitably will emerge. But for the duration of the dark moon phase, we can simply exist first with the notion that how we have developed as a spiritual being living in a mundane physical world, has shaped our understanding of reality. This understanding is meant to be destroyed, rebuilt and evolved throughout life, never meant to be stagnant. It is going to be a very active week in the paranormal realms, with Saturn and Mercury conjoining in the ethereal sign which brings down into focus the very real aspect of life which is the spirit world. Those who channel or are connected to the other side will find it hard to concentrate due to the amount of heightened activity going on in the ethers.
Venus stations retrograde 1st March in Aries at 10° 50’. She will continue to travel backwards through the first decan of Aries and into the last degrees of Pisces until the 13th April. This is marking a very volatile time with regard to gender roles and the feminine and masculine principals. The roles are reversed, but what comes first is the refusal for the feminine to be dominated by anything other than true sovereign expression. Venus retrograde in Aries is when we take the gloves off and don’t take kindly to anyone who forces entry into our sacred space. She who will not be contained! The Xena warrior princess energy is definitely here in the room with us now. Hold on to your belts because She is not accepting anything less than respect and fairness. Venus in Aries will fight for her love, and her first love is the self. Independence becomes dominion for the heart and it is difficult to even consider allowing someone else to ruin one’s peace.

Monday 24th
Seeking a new way of emoting opens up the potential for meeting new people that pop up out of the woodwork. Friendships come in more forms than just the human one and we can experience companionship with just about anything/anyone when we are in companionship with ourselves first and foremost. Being a friend to oneself can sometimes be harder than pouring empathy into someone else. How do you show up for yourself? Moon ingresses into Aquarius shifting the mood to that of a wild and weird pace.

Tuesday 25th
Skepticism, reserve and stoicism draw through the air today as Mercury and Saturn blend their consciousness in the sky. The two come together to generate a moment of deep critical thinking reform which contributes to scientific discoveries. Mercury and Saturn in Pisces – the sin of fluidity, the unconscious, and mysticism help to formulate a practical road map towards a language that can clearly define the unknown. Moon conjunct Pluto is bringing to the surface people, places and things from the recesses of our consciousness in order to formulate a new perspective.

Wednesday 26th
Moving through discomfort helps to build resilience for uncomfortable situations and today brings up such incidences. Moon square Uranus draws our attention to where we feel the most discomfort within group and social settings and what we need to do to adjust ourselves or the environment. An opportunity to heal an insecurity arises as well as the Moon sextiles Chiron, generating an energy of support.

Thursday 27th
The New Moon in Pisces is quite strong today with a massive stellium of planets in the mutable water sign. The portal is open! Dreams of a not-so-distant future open up in our imaginations so that we can perceive what a potential utopia could be. Today is the day to plant those dreams into the collective unconscious so that the universe may ripen them in the form of active community care. Allow yourself to imagine and explore the possibilities, activate new neuropathways, and transcend the mundane through fantasy and mystique.

Friday 28th
The Moon trines the now direct Mars energies which help to inspire us into action. The flames of desire are ignited and the Moon’s conjunction to the Pisces stellium is in full swing. This means that we are ready and able to follow the messages that we are getting from the Universe, to trust and believe in the flow of Source. This is a highly potent time for utilizing active imagination techniques, which help to bring forth the underlying desires that we typically house in self-consciousness. Healing is imminent and sometimes a cathartic release is a part of that process. If it feels like you need a good cry, have at it and be sure to use the energy with the intention to heal.

Saturday 1st
Moon ingresses into Aries while Venus stations retrograde today. There is movement happening within our romantic relationships. We can take note of how we feel regarding sharing space with others. With the Moon in Aries, it might feel like a chore to have to consider someone else when all we want to do is flow within our own independence. Love and relationships take on a whole new meaning while Venus is retrograde and the feminine principle to receive is turned on its head. It feels appropriate to challenge the feminine and lean into our masculine roles today.

Sunday 2nd
A confusing day where Mercury is eclipsed by Neptune, the planet of dreams and illusions. Neptune works to wash away whatever it touches to dissociate previous conceptions and notions of that energy. Mercury, being the planet that sends messages and receives data, becomes easily turned around when in contact with Neptune and it is more of a chore to stay grounded in the here and now. Our minds wander, we have a harder time concentrating, and for those who are psychically attuned, it can be an incredibly distracting day with loads of information coming out of nowhere. Sun square Jupiter poses some clashes with authority/teachers/spiritual gurus that may surprise even us. The challenge is in remaining centered within our reasoning capabilities. It is a great day to go into meditation and trance however, so utilize this time to pick up on paranormal communications.
