Healing as a means of progressing toward your goals

I'm keeping the overview here short and sweet: 

One theme I am noticing in the transits of this week is that of established intimate relationships and the security that they can enjoy when they are healthy. There’s  a continuation of the theme of finding your path, adjusting your trajectory, and healing as a means of moving forward. The Universe is asking us to really examine our hearts desires about our future, but the heart must also be healed in order to allow the GPS to work properly.

So this week, get some rest and soak up some of the healing energy offered.

Take care of yourself and your loved ones. Open yourself up to healing old wounds. Let’s get to it…

March 29

• Mercury conjunct Neptune - dreamier thinking, meditation, interest in mysteries and art and imagination.

• Sun quincunx Vesta - potholes on your path are illuminated; adjustments to the goals you hold as sacred

• Sun conjunct Chiron - Progress with healing; wounds can be illuminated and thereby healed

March 30

• Venus sextile Saturn - love and relationships take on a more serious/responsible tone

March 31

• Sun sextile Saturn - serious work ethic; the path forward and what is required may become illuminated

• Venus sextile North Node - attracts positive influences to your moving forward on your path

• Mercury square Juno - understanding and communication needed in marriage or close relationships, disagreements are possible

April 2

• Mercury sextile Pluto -thinking and communication can feel or be intense

• Pallas opposite Vesta - you plan(s) and your passion(s) may be out of balance

April 3

• Venus conjunct Ceres - intimate relationships are nurtured and secure

April 4

• Mercury enters Aries - fast thinking and decision making, action oriented thinking

• Jupiter sextile Juno - acceptance and openness in intimate relationships

April 5

• Jupiter sextile Eris - opportunity for growth as a result of upsets, or, the escalation of upsets

ARIES - Touch in with your friends this week. In doing so, you may find that someone is struggling with their identity, or you may say something that triggers them because they are having a hard time fitting in to some box they think they need to fit into. But before you fly into advice mode, think before you speak and be extra compassionate. Most of the zodiac are feeling soft and squishy and you’re straight forward approach might inadvertently hurt someone. Take care of boring, mundane tasks at home as soon as possible or they are going to fall off your list and then you’ll be mad at yourself.


TAURUS - It's time to put yourself out there a bit in terms of your work. Particularly if you do something related to the 3rd house (communications, writing etc.) You’ve put this off for a long time but you have what it takes so get to it. You are a very nurturing partner, particularly this week. Be careful though that you don’t absorb someone else’s drama and trauma. Boundaries are important, even in love.


GEMINI - There’s a lot of information available to you this week. You love information, but you might feel a little overwhelmed. Stop and get still for a little while. For some that means meditation, for others it means physical exertion. Whatever quiets your brain a bit is what you need to do. The decision you need to make will feel much clearer after you’ve quieted your mind. If asked to keep a secret this week...please do.


CANCER - A recent interaction with a colleague or friend may have left you scratching your head and wondering if they are pissed at you. They aren’t, but it wouldn’t hurt to try to re-establish a more typical and happy dialogue with them. You may feel sensitive about all of your friendships and close relationships this week, maybe wondering if you are aligned. Rather than take action about any of these things, cathart via art or writing to get clear on how you really feel.


LEO - You need to give yourself permission to rest this week. You may be busy catching up on things that you procrastinated, but you can still only do so much in a day. Your energy may swing from high to low, so listen to your body and give it what it needs. If you need a place to focus all that “doing” energy, focus on your financial or business stuff.


VIRGO - This current energy has your name all over it. You may find plenty of people around you ready to give you some support, and you may find yourself needed by someone close as well. You love to help others, but can sometimes resist help for yourself. Seek balance in that this week. Give advice when asked for it, but also be willing to receive it when it shows up too...even if it's from an unusual source..


LIBRA - A friend or someone you work with could be in a mood that is making you want to burn a bridge. We both know you can’t even light a match to burn a bridge, but before you do say something too harsh, consider the fact that the person is speaking out of a wounded place. You don’t have to take their shit, but you don’t need to fire them as a friend either. You are highly thought of and it will show in the coming weeks.


SCORPIO - Love is on your mind, and it really wants to come out of your mouth this week. It may have you feeling restless and antsy. Relax...you’ve got this. Anything you put effort into right now is going to have good results, including relationships. Your anxiety may surface in your dream life, but don’t over analyze. Give yourself some peace and just acknowledge the fears and bajiggityness...then it will fade.


SAGITTARIUS - Help is at hand! The right people with the right connections are coming to help you reach your goals. You may find yourself enjoying a level of success that you’ve been missing for a long time. Don’t forget about your friendships during this time of “highs”. They’ve been there for you during the “lows” and they need your support too.


CAPRICORN - A personal relationship that went sideways or ended in a way that chapped your ass a bit may show up again and offer some perspective. The actual person may not physically show up in your life, and they may not even call or text. But the energetics of the situation will be at the front of your mind. Open yourself to the healing process. Your business plans and ambitions are poised to do very well in the coming weeks and months. Make sure your finances are organized...you’ll be glad you did.


AQUARIUS - old connections can yield great new results. An unexpected interaction with someone may re-infuse you with hope and excitement about your plans that have been in the works. If you’ve been discouraged and questioning whether to move ahead, you can find validation this week. There is support for your dreams! On the other hand, if someone pisses you off this week, hold your tongue and put away your matches.


PISCES - If you need inspiration for business or financial plans, you may unexpectedly find it in nature. Maybe it isn’t that unexpected, since you are ruled by Neptune. At any rate, the artistic expressions that you allow to flow out of you can help guide you to some answers about things much more mundane. Let the love flow in your home and with the people closest to you. Everyone needs it right now, and you could use some in return as well.

Feel and Heal

It looks to be a busy week ahead, both for our healing, and with our minds, and probably those 2 elements together. With the sun in Aries and the Spring equinox at our back, we will feel anxious and ready to get on with things. But we need to watch out for rash behavior.

Before we “get on with it”, we have to do some work on ourselves. Our “sacred work”, ideal career, or our “calling” seems to be a focus at the moment. But the planets are telling us that we need to heal and serve ourselves before we can heal and serve others. Where you feel triggered, oversensitive, or fearful this week, take note. That is the illumination of your wounds.

Mercury is active this week, so your mind may run ahead of you. Use the full moon to declutter your mind of painful memories or old hurts. In order to move ahead, you must lighten your load. Things are leaning toward your independence from the things that have held you back thus far. But in order to succeed, you need to be well acquainted with yourself on a deep level. You won’t have any one else to blame for either your happiness or unhappiness. And while we may think that sounds great, we may not realize how often we use the assholes around us that “keep us down” as a way of avoiding responsibility for our own shit. This is a reference to the work you do ior want to do in the world, not interpersonal relationships. Meaning, I am not victim blaming anyone if they are in an abusive relationship...that is a whole other ballgame.

But your personal relationships are not off the hook either. If there are wounds or resentments hanging around, it will weigh you down as you attempt to pursue your dreams.

March 22

Mars square Vesta - irritations or limitations in or at work due to resistance; probably resisting something that is meant for our own good

March 23

Mercury square Mars - good mental energy, but watch for rushed decision making, or agitation

March 24

Mercury square North Node - possibly overanalyzing your next step toward your goal or purpose


March 25

Mars sextile Ceres - putting effort toward helping others


March 26

Sun conjunct Venus - harmonious, increased attractiveness, possibly laziness

Mars conjunct North Node - restless, anxious to implement steps toward goal

March 27


Mercury sextile Lilith - your rebellious or freedom loving ideas are more easily expressed


March 28

Uranus trine Vesta - unexpected changes bring greater independence in your work or career


Venus quincunx Vesta - necessary adjustments in personal or professional relationships (or with your relationship to yourself)

Chiron quincunx Vesta - healing must occur in the areas where you hold sacred beliefs or do what you consider to be sacred work.


Venus conjunct Chiron - vulnerability and healing in relationships


Full Moon in Libra - This is a beautiful full moon for healing, which has been a theme for 2021 so far. We have Venus, Chiron and the Sun working together. The Moon is in a Grand Trine with Saturn and Mars, so solutions should come with minimal effort, providing you’ve made room for those solutions. We’ve started a new astrological year. Last year (the year of WTF),, the Libra New Moon was in April, and we still had no idea what we’d be dealing with this pandemic for this long. We had no idea what our country and the world would go through. We have so much grieving and mourning and healing to do. We are different than we were. Utilize this full moon to really release any of that old you that doesn’t align with who you are now. Relationships are particularly emphasized in Libra, so if your relationship needs healing, this is the full moon to do it.


March 29

Mercury conjunct Neptune - dreamier thinking, meditation, interest in mysteries and art and imagination.

Sun quincunx Vesta - potholes on your path are illuminated; adjustments to the goals you hold as sacred

Sun conjunct Chiron - Progress with healing; wounds can be illuminated and thereby healed



ARIES - Your solar 12th house is lit up now, so you maybe more than anyone, will be meeting with your buried wounds. The Libra full moon is opposite your Sun so you may feel the push-pull of self vs. other. Do the necessary work on both! Your partner is very likely to be amenable to some romance, fun, and a little adventure. See?! Its not all work and no play! Fulfillment, particularly in relationships, is on the horizon for you, and this one will stick!

TAURUS - Your 11th house of hope and dreams is activated this week, opposite the moon in your 5th house of play. I can hear Taurus going “yay! We get to play!”. Ahem. sit down. Yes, you can play with your friends, but first you need to tend to that inner child. The one that had way too much pressure placed on him or her. The one that didn’t get what he or she needed during some critical phases of your childhood. The moon will help you do this work, you just need to be open to it. After you do your chores, then you can go chase your dreams. Use what you’ve learned from your inner mother to be of service to others.

GEMINI - You’re going to need to be aware of your mental speed this week. Before you get ahead of yourself, pump your brakes. Try to organize your 1 million thoughts and feelings into some kind of play or strategy. Get your ducks in a row at home. Maybe that is literal and you need to get your shit together, or maybe it is a call to look for cracks in your foundation. What beliefs no longer serve you on your path? How do you want to be perceived by the world at large? Dress for the job you want, not the job you have...in the energetic sense. Balance is a challenge for you, but if you can find it, your success will taste so much sweeter.

CANCER - You may definitely be sensing the Spring energy, even if its still cold where you live. The idea of seeing your friends and resuming some of your outdoor activities will be barking at your door. (Do ideas bark? Idanno...I guess they do in this horoscope.) Your healing is going to be focused in the area of your beliefs and knowledge. Healing can take place where you feel that your education or religion has failed you, or in areas where you feel insecure about it. Your siblings and close friends will be an active energy around you this week. Make sure you are not over-giving, and shorting yourself.

LEO - You should be starting to see the saplings emerging from the ashes pretty soon. Not just in the sense that Spring is coming, but in the sense that, areas of your life that may have been burned are regenerating now. Some of this is bound to be financial. I do also feel a strong sense of physical healing at this time. If you feel it is time for you to grieve or mourn some aspect of your life that you’ve lost or never quite had, this is a beautiful time to give yourself that space and gift. Release your pain to the moon. The moon will also show you the holes and leaks in your banking checkbook and your personal valuation so that you can fix them… in terms of things like: loans where you are paying more interest than necessary, loans you may qualify for, sources of income that you may be overlooking, and ways you have not fully appreciated or rewarded yourself. Be L’oreal this week: Because you’re worth it.

VIRGO - Your solar house of self is activated by this week’s full moon. You will want to be alone and bask in its energy, but you will be pulled into group settings and partnerships and relationships all week. You can still make time for yourself, even though you’re arguing with me as you read this. Somewhere in your workaholic (cough cough martyr) schedule you CAN find time for yourself. Ironically it is likely to also take place in a group setting. The full moon falls on Sunday, so carve out some time for your own meditation and healing, even if you do it with others. You’ll have some alone time soon enough, I swear.

LIBRA - This is your full moon, and it will show you the ways to move forward. Finish your unfinished business where you are currently. Address any wrongs or crappy feelings. Heal any resentments you have and give it to the moon. The sun is in your solar 6th house of routine and service. So if your routine has been upended recently, it should be settling down. It is important that you balance your service to others with your own personal healing. The moon may activate guilt you may not have been in touch with until now. Resolve it, forgive yourself, and prepare to move ahead.

SCORPIO - Your boredom with the tedium and monotony of life lately will have you craving some playtime with your friends. Creative play, childlike fun, and creative energy are definitely the way to find your healing right now. Even if you are just healing the boredom, that is a worthy cause! The caveat is to not ignore your more intimate relationships at this time, because there is a definite need emanating from the direction of your partner. So balance your time between your own children and your inner child. Everyone gets a turn on the fun bus.

SAGITTARIUS - Your 4th and 10th house axis is lit up this week, so you may feel tension or anxiety about balancing home life and work, or feeling uncertain about a living or work situation. The moon is lighting up your 10th house, opposite the sun in your 4th. Use the full moon to soothe the tension between those 2 entities and release guilt you feel about either. If there are issues from your childhood that you need to address and forgive, this is a great time to do it. Repairing cracks in your foundation from your upbringing can bring growth in your career as well, because your sense of confidence and security will be strengthened. After this week, you’ll have more clarity about what to do with a situation from one of these 2 houses (maybe both).

CAPRICORN - Brace yourself for a nibble from the travel bug, Cap. You are likely to be feeling the need for speed or for adventure in general with the moon in your 9th house. The sun is in your 3rd house, so gather information and pricing and do some initial planning for that trip you want to take (Shoot for June or July). If communication with a family member or close work partner has been funky lately, this full moon could offer some healing energy. Tap in to the energy of “what do I believe” about this situation, and write it down. You might be surprise how just that could help you make a minor shift in a relationship.

AQUARIUS - Take a breath and a break this week. It is likely to be a feel-y week, so carve out some time to be alone with your thoughts. The moon is lighting up your 8th house, and that’s not the kiddie pool. Old grief may surface for you, or you may feel burdened by feeling you owe someone something. Examine what you value about yourself that is in the way of letting that feeling of obligation go. Use the moon to release any heavy or negative feelings you have about someone from your past. It is time to close that book and truly move ahead.

PISCES - Healer, heal thy Self...as in, the self that is your identity. While the moon activates your partnership house, the sun and Chiron are in your 1st house of self. You may feel a bit needy toward your partner this week and under this full moon. But as always, it is important for you to maintain your self of self and personal identity. Re-examine your goals and dreams and ask yourself if they really match up with who you truly are. Don’t let yourself be defined by other people’s expectations. If you do feel like you need extra TLC from your partner, this moon looks really sweet for getting those needs met.

I guess we better work, bitch...(insert scrunched face here)

There is a theme this week of work, work-life balance, changes in the work you do, etc.  Problem solving and finding work-arounds for things that don’t work are also a theme.  The desire to escape can surface as a means of avoiding conflict and frustration. On the up side, though, there is plenty of information and news to satisfy whatever your question is.  Love and intimacy look good this week (unless you work with your spouse or your spouse is your boss, in which case there may be some spill over tension), as does the healing process. Pay attention to your natal Mars and Chiron...those are the houses that are activated for healing. (for me its my 10th and my 6th and I cannot even emphasize how accurate this feels, because I am really struggling with my work routines and habits!) 

In other good news, the Spring Equinox gives us yet another “new year” of sorts, and an opportunity to have a fresh start on things.  Most of the world celebrates January 1st as the New Year, obviously.  And then there’s Chinese New year in February.  The Equinox, when the Sun enters the first sign of the zodiac, Aries, is the astrological new year.  So take advantage of it and set some intentions.  Personally I have felt February and March up to now to be very difficult and I’m definitely going to be utilizing this energy to shift this energy!  Be as idealistic as you feel like being...that is the point!

March 15

• Venus square Juno - conflict in relationships; compromise and cooperation needed
• Mercury enters Pisces - our unconscious mind becomes easier to access. Be aware of the desire to escape too much, or get lost in non-reality (i.e. too much dreaming and not enough working)
• Moon sextile Jupiter - idealistic and humanitarian

March 16

• Chiron conjunct Ceres (over several days) - strong caretaker energy
• Chiron sextile Mars - drives you to work on your healing journey
•  Sun sextile Pluto - boosts your need to succeed

March 18

•  Venus sextile Pluto - love intensifies and deepens
• Mercury conjunct Pallas - problem solving; the  desire for new information

March 19

• Saturn sextile Ceres -  the work/life balance can be achieved with planning
• Saturn quincunx Vesta - changes and adjustments to work and responsibilities

March 20

• Sun enters Aries - we can feel more enthusiastic and spontaneous; the desire to conquer
•  March Equinox  -  It is the Spring Equinox in the Northern Hemisphere when night and day have approximately equal length all over the planet. It is time for rebirth and new beginnings.

March 21

• Mercury sextile Uranus - exciting news and conversation
• Mars trine Saturn - provides the drive and stamina for hard work, mental or physical
• Venus enters Aries -   You enjoy flirting and short-term relationships, no-string-attached. Love at first sight becomes possible

March 22

• Mars square Vesta - irritations at work

ARIES - Slow your roll, Bitch.  With the Pisces sun in your solar 1st house, your may be caught up in the dream and not notice the details.  Don’t rush ahead without paying attention to what or who is around you.  Don’t try to push a project to completion right now.  Be in the flow and try not to steer the river.  If your finances need some attention, make small adjustments one or two things at a time, as opposed to throwing up your hands and taking out some crazy loan. I know you love to run, but save the running for your feet, not your mind, your mouth, or your decision making. 

TAURUS - Career continues to be a focal point for you, and you might feel frustrated this week by the obstacles in your way.  You can see what’s on the other side of these potholes and rocks, but getting there may require different tires.  Or, you may decide to simply walk the rest of the way, which means you’ll get there later rather than sooner, but you and your “vehicle” will be in one piece. 

GEMINI - You may be a grumpy bitch this week, so utilize whatever is your go-to calming tool.  Little annoyances can add up and make you snappy.  You might feel overly critical of the people around you.  But none of this is about them, so much as the fact that life will not move fast enough for you.  Your mind is a speed racer, and you’re ready to be at the finish line yesterday.  But there are annoying details with paperwork and various projects that are hanging you up.  Just get them done, and try not to be mean to the people around you. 

CANCER -  This week you'll need to find balance between standing in your own beliefs, and being willing to maybe change them when faced with a challenge.   If challenged by a person, you are bound to feel like a defensive bitch and confrontation is an option.  It isn’t your best option however.  Rather than clap back (which you are so good at), say as little as possible and examine  what the person or situation is telling you.  You may still arrive at the choice to clap back, but do the inner work first. 

LEO -  You’re a fire sign bitch, so I don’t really have to explain heat to you.  But be aware this week that others may rubbing against you, and the friction is not sexy (sorry).  Little things might really get on your nerves, and you may feel some friction with your partner about finances or job stuff.  Keep your cool and don’t burn down the village.  This will pass!

VIRGO - Where you feel blocked this week, climb or jump over it.  There is no reason to wait for someone to rescue you, or for a solution to show up, when you are quite capable of getting around this problem the old fashioned way.  Relationship issues may have you feeling jittery and wanting to talk things out.  But a little space and grace will work better than a “talk”.  Give it some time. 

LIBRA - You may feel really over the mundane bullshit of day to day work stuff right now.  The Sun is in your solar 6th house and it just doesn't motivate you.  Adding to your over-it-ness, other people’s moods will be splashing on you and you may just want to lock your office door.  You go right ahead, bitch! If you put your foot down in a reasonable way before this energy really sets you on fire, you will be able to nip it before trouble arises.  If you are buried in work...delegate, bitch!.  

SCORPIO - All work and no play makes Scorp a grumpy bitch. You’re bored.  You’re searching for deeper meaning in things that don’t need deeper meaning.  Accept certain things and people at their very boring and superficial face value.  Find depth and intrigue elsewhere or within yourself.  This period of boredom will pass very soon.  

SAGITTARIUS - This week,  Mars in Gemini says "look at all your options".  Look at all of them.  Not just the ones that you’ve deemed good enough, but even the less desirable ones.  And you may find yourself revisiting this twice.  Here's a thought: maybe  mash together a couple of the concepts will yield the best option yet.  If your neighbors or co-workers are chewing too loud or otherwise being completely irritating, avoid confrontation.  Confrontations are likely to blow up far bigger than necessary right now.  Observe, document, meditate, move on.  

CAPRICORN - During the birthing process, the urge to push can be overwhelming.  But sometimes the doc will tell you to NOT push, just breathe, in order to tend to something that may prove problematic.  This week you need to breathe, don’t push. Find your focal point and observe the situation. Focus on stability and foundation issues before moving ahead.  Create a plan B. 

AQUARIUS - Detachment from outcome is your fancy motto this week.  Just don’t count on things promised...don’t count your chickens before they’ve hatched, etc.  Family may disappoint you a bit this week.  Or someone who borrowed money from you may hint at not being able to pay it back.  Breathe, bitch.  This will be OK.  It isn’t worth making yourself sick or guilting the other party to death.  

PISCES - You may find yourself feeling foggy  and confused.  It may be the movement of the planets into Aries, but whatever the case, give yourself a break.  Watch yourself for negative self talk, don’t be too hard on yourself, don’t cry over spilt milk etc. etc.  Forget about yesterday. Don’t worry about tomorrow.  Be present in today for whatever it is (it will soon change anyway). Use positive affirmations like I use lip gloss: copiously and frequently. 

Galileo Figaro Magnifico

You may notice a slight change in the format for the transits.  There are also quite a few more than usual, as I am playing with adding in the asteroids and dwarf planets to see how they can contribute to my process.  So far, I like this vibe a lot, especially for scopes called BitchScopes.  

I am fiddling with my writing process as well.  So to arrive at the mood for this week I made a a word cloud.  It won’t show up in the scopes on 12Listen due to formatting constraints. Here is the list of words in descending order of emphasis in case you can't see the graphic (or you can bounce over to the blog) ** Feelings, intuition, meditation, mother, nurture, sensitive, choice, commitment, empathy, family, logic, news, bonding, compromise, humanitarian, idealistic, misunderstandings, prayer, selfish, sharing, vulnerable **

I kinda love it...at least for this week. Who knows about next week.  

P.S. Bohemian Rhapsody just landed in my brain out of nowhere. Probably triggered by the word "Mother", but I'm going with it... While I know the song by heart, I don't know that I've ever sought out more meaning behind it.  Check this out! 

“In fact, Galileo was the name of Jesus Christ in the ancient Rome. In other words, the only way to get out of the demonic nightmare of the song is to magnify Jesus Christ and ask Him for help. But the boy can’t believe that God is concerned about him, and refuses the salvation (‘Nobody loves me’)."

Read this fantastic article about the meaning of Bohemian Rhapsody

* Footnote by me: I can not validate this assertion that Jesus actually was referred to as "Galileo", though it shows up a few times in research.  However, Galileo may have been a nod to the word "Galilean", a word that referenced Christ and His followers

Aaaanyway, thanks for that ear-worm, Universe.  The link about the song is very interesting in and of itself and shows what a friggin genius Freddy was.  As to the songs random application to this week's scopes...self judgement, feeling all the feelings because of Pisces, healing the mother wound, caring for ourselves, prayer, surrendering to the power of prayer.  

Hi rabbit hole, can I come in? Cool.

Freddy's Birthday was 9/5, making him a Virgo. The planets  that contributed to most of this Mother energy this week were Vesta (shows where we are devoted) and Ceres (goddess of the hearth and harvest)  Vesta has a lot of moon-like, Cancerian qualities, and  Ceres is a proposed co-ruler for Virgo.   

Galileo was martyred for science.  He was ordered to turn himself in to the Holy Office to begin trial for holding the belief that the Earth revolves around the sun, which was deemed heretical by the Catholic Church. 

What do we sacrifice (Vesta in Virgo) to the collective (Pisces) to allow our healing (Chiron & Ceres in Aries)? Can we "Galileo Figaro Magnifico" (magnify Christ/Christ consciousness), to unfuck ourselves?

That's crazy.  I gotta go have a drink and listen to the song.  Idanno man, I just work here. 

Here's the weekly scoop and scopes: 

March 8

• Moon sextile Neptune - sensitive and in touch with your feelings
• Mercury sextile Juno - good timing for sharing news or info with spouse/mate
• Venus opposite Vesta - pull between commitment to work and commitment to partner
• Neptune square Juno (all week) - possible misunderstandings in relationships, particularly if you are not viewing your partner through a realistic lens

March 9

• Venus square Lunar Nodes - A square to the Nodes  indicates tension and a critical choice.   You must choose between the comfort of the known (the past) and the promise of the unknown (the future).  The South Node in Sagittarius wants to escape and the North Node in Gemini asks us to communicate and pursue intellectual enrichment.  How will you use your values, money, and talents (Venus) on this journey? 
• Moon trine Mars - courage and initiative;  defending the family

March 10

• Sun conjunct Neptune - increased sensitivity, empathy, and intuition 
• Mercury sextile Eris - discord can be softened with intellect and logic

March 11

• Sun square Juno - beware of ego in relationships; selfishness 
• Chiron conjunct Ceres (over several days) - strong caretaker energy

March 13

• Venus conjunct Neptune - a great transit for solid relationships to bond and deepen
• New Moon in Pisces - It is time for spirituality, prayers and meditation. Some of us will need some time alone with their own thoughts.

March 14

• Daylight Savings Time begins - Ugh. lame. 
• Moon conjunct Chiron - vulnerable

March 15

• Mercury enters Pisces - our unconscious mind becomes easier to access. Be aware of the desire to escape too much, or get lost in non-reality (i.e. too much dreaming and not enough working)
• Moon sextile Jupiter - idealistic and humanitarian
• Venus square Juno - conflict in relationships; compromise and cooperation needed

ARIES - Your solar 12th house is emphasized right now, with the Sun,  the new moon, Mercury, and Venus there stirring up and activating your compassion in a deep way.  The trick is to not give all of your energy away to others, when you need to have some for yourself. It is past time that you leaned on your friends for some nurturing and support, even if it is not for any specific thing.  In your quest for success, don't forget to take care of you. 

TAURUS - Your friends, associations, hopes and dreams are highlighted now.  If you utilize the new moon for manifesting, be sure to include your long term goals. Self care for you revolves around creativity and child-like joy. Use some kind of art to tap into your intuition this week and consider doing some healing work for your inner child. 

GEMINI - There is something you need to learn in order to further your career.  It may be a new skill or modality, or it may be a whole new subject.  If the thought of going back to school breaks you out in hives, tap in to your intuition for some direction and explore the resources online. If there is some emotional baggage around learning, do some work with the new moon to heal that and draw in a fresh energy.

CANCER - Use the moon this week to tap in to the power of your belief system, and also to receive new information that will enhance your spiritual life.  Your challenge this week might be staying focused.  Resist the urge to escape, or to distract yourself with useless arguments.  Passive aggressive behavior is a no-no this week (sorry!), but learning, or deepening your learning practice is a yes!

LEO - Try not to act impulsively when your feelings get triggered this week. Instead, work on healing whatever that issue is.  This is likely to come from your closest relationship or partner, and might be about the ever-so-popular couples argument: money.  So try to stay aware and don't lash out at them. (Read their horoscopes to see what's going on with them. Perspective helps!)  Honest and compassionate communication will set the stage for a regeneration in that relationship. 

VIRGO - This doesn't even sound like a horoscope, what I'm about to say.  It sounds like Virgo every day...but I'm gonna say it anyway.   Your mothering and nurturing nature will be turned up this week, and you might need to watch for too much "people pleasing", sacrificial, or martyr behavior.  Being sacrificial (especially in a brand new relationship) won't necessarily win the other party over, and it probably doesn't serve you either.   Balance between self and other is key, particularly if grief is involved this week at all.  Make sure you give yourself room to grieve under the dark of the moon.  

LIBRA - While its not your normal nature, check yourself if you feel like criticizing this week. With the moon tickling your solar 6th house, you'll need to be aware of any physical messages you get from your body, but realize that they may be rooted in an emotional issue as well.  You may feel a bit low and mopey this week, and like you're unsupported.  "Water, water everywhere, but not a drop to drink."  You're a drop in the ocean (Vesta is cruising through your 12th house), so you're surrounded by the love of others...you just can't see it right now.  Just keep swimming.  

SCORPIO - You have the green light to be dramatic and creative this week, particularly as it pertains to yourself in a group or company. You will enjoy the attention you get this week, and it could come from a new job, promotion, or opportunity.  You will feel more inspired this week than you have in awhile, so if you've back-burnered a creative project, you might want to dust it off this week.  Use the new moon to manifest even more creative energy to get that sucker finished!

SAGITTARIUS - You may not feel very social or outgoing this week, as the new moon will have you craving the comfort and security of home (maybe with family, maybe not...depends on your family!) You may question your commitment to your profession, and may just feel confused about how to proceed. The 10th house and issues of authority are pulling on your need for more security.  For the answers, look to your Pluto, currently in your 2nd solar house of earned money.  In short, "show me the money" is probably partially the answer to your conundrum. 

CAPRICORN - You may question what you know this week, or your beliefs that have gotten you this far.  It could be time for a change up in either your career path, or the education that supports your current career.  Look to your friends for a bit of distraction and levity from the burdens of family.  Write down your wishes and desires for the new moon and ask for information to come to you very clearly...because the information is coming...so you'd best know what they're talking about when it does, eh? 

AQUARIUS - Your glasses this week may be Venusian colored.  The arts, inspiration, beauty, things of value, and money are likely to be on your mind.  Projects to improve your home are favored right now. But while you're refinishing your dining table, your thoughts are likely to go deep.  Deep wisdom can come when your mind is occupied. You already have everything you need, for whatever the thing is that is on your mind right now; it is merely a matter of organizing it.

PISCES - You need to take a break from effort for the time being.  Rest.  Relax.  Be with the one you love (man, woman, cat, dog, food, vibrator, whatever!) and give yourself a break.  This is your new moon, and there's a lot of planets rooting for you right now.  Despite that, you may feel stabby this week, but the way I'm looking at it, I think a fever is about to break.  After you navigate whatever pissy energy you have within you, you'll have an a-ha moment.  You will very soon feel much more secure and empowered. But don't go trying to find it. Let it come to you.  You deserve your own grace right now.
