Today we’re getting a boost of letting love flow as the Moon transits Jupiter in Leo. This marks the Moon's final pass over Jupiter in retrograde. The next time these two dance in the sky (April 26), Jupiter will be direct and full steam ahead. Appreciate for a moment that this massive benevolent force, well rested after spending the entire winter in retrograde, is stepping back into the game, inviting us all to embody the Leo magic, in a delicious and nutritious let your heart soar and your voice roar kind of way.

Mercury, ruler of communication and cognition, exits Pisces as well this evening, shifting our thoughts from processing the vastness of our oneness with the infinite (as well as our delusions of grandeur) and gives us the much needed mental faculties to implement those lessons and insights into action. In Aries, Mercury dances in the fire of self-empowered authority. Our awareness shifts evermore to what we’re here, on Earth, to do. Back to life. Back to duality, where every action has an equal and opposite reaction. Remember the words of Alan Watts, who said “Any affirmation you make has no meaning without the denial." Pay attention to where the ego wants to identify. Focus instead on the power of reconciling all opposing energy, remembering that grace trumps karma, and love heals all wounds.

The Sun continues to climb through Aries, approaching a conjunction with electrifying Uranus, which will amplify an already super-charged full moon Lunar eclipse (April 4). The breakthroughs will intensify. Breakdowns all-too-often precede breakthroughs. Whether you're still picking up the pieces from winter’s ass whipping or you've got your shit dialed, now’s the time to root it in and line it up. Energy is on the upswing. Believe in the good things coming, regardless of evidence to the contrary, and embody the song you were invited here to sing.

"Let the beauty of what you love be what you do." - Rumi

Final Pluto Uranus square

The Moon steps boldly into Aquarius, in a stimulating sextile with newly retrograde Saturn in Sagittarius. Marking a structural dismantling, a loosening of the ties that bind, a dying of the old and decaying forms. It’s happening. Can you feel it? The winds of change. Picking up steam. Today has an added bonus, a special twist, a tale of two planets, the final do-or-die friction-packed square of revolutionary Uranus and transformational Pluto. Tension abounds, testing patience, pushing limits, necessitating change. This aspect has been working us, and working us, and working us… with seemingly no resolution since 2012. In total, these outer planets have squared each other SEVEN times, launching revolution after revolution, both within our selves and the world at large. Dictators have fallen, outrage has increased, unconscious angst burgeons evermore to the surface, reaching a powerful pinnacle this month.

March 20 marks the Vernal Equinox, the astrological beginning of the new year, when the Sun enters Aries. This time of new beginnings will be preceded by a full solar eclipse in the last degree of Pisces, the LAST DEGREE of the 360 degree wheel of astrology. This is the end, not of the world, but of the pretense we project unconsciously into it. Ideally all will heed the call, but sadly many will double down on denial, remain steadfast in their adherence to comfort over change, personality over authenticity, lies over truth. But not you. Not this time. This potent time marks a unique window into crafting the year you choose, not the one you blindly accept. Culture is your enemy. Align with YOUR vision, beyond indoctrination, free of conditioning. Be deliberate, focused, intentional. Finish the final four days of winter with dignity, poise, and self-respect. Connect with your center, your heart, your soul’s mission for this new cycle around the sun. As structures fall, energy avails. Dial it in, use it wisely. What’s your dream? Write it down, read it often, live it day in and day out. Remember, every affirmation you set into motion will be met with denying energy of equal measure. This law of physics, which oft stopped you in the past, CAN AND WILL, be met instead with the reconciliatory energy necessary to feed on it, instead of letting it feed on you. Journey well
