This week’s headline items: Mars changes signs from Pisces to Aries on Tuesday evening; the Balsamic Moon phase begins on Thursday morning; Mercury stations again, slowing down while still retrograde, and Eclipse season ends on Thursday; Venus changes signs from Aries to Taurus on Saturday late morning and Saturn’s station intensifies that day; Mars aligns with Jupiter in Aries on Sunday morning.
There will be three Moon VoC phases this week: Tuesday early evening (for a very brief 6 mins); Thursday very late evening (for 3 hours), and Sunday late morning (for a little over 3 hours).
Before we get to this week’s forecast, please know…
If you missed my Forecasting Forum last week, and still would like to learn how to align yourself with the current energies, feel free to get the mp4-video presentation “Jupiter in Aries until May 2023” — and see how this relates to your own Birth Chart.
Jupiter’s journey through Aries (May 10th – Oct. 28th, 2022 & Dec. 20th – May 16th, 2023)
Jupiter moves through Aries every 12 years — last time it traveled through Aries was between early June 2010 and early Sept. 2010, as well as late Jan. 2011 until early June 2011
Where in your life are you waiting to make a big leap forward?
How will Jupiter’s journey through Aries impact people with planets or points/angles in Aries, Libra, Cancer, or Capricorn?
Do you have a Sun-sign or Rising sign in Sagittarius?
Star Members: check your email for the link to the mp4-video recording and enjoy watching it! I sent it out on May 21st in the early evening.
Now, this week’s Forecast…
Monday, May 23rd:
Monday, the Moon remains in creative, sensitive Pisces all day. It will journey there until Tuesday early 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, especially 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 until Tuesday early evening.
Monday morning, an opportune Sun/Jupiter aspect becomes exact at 7:05am EDT. We started to feel this aspect buildfrom last week, Friday evening (May 20th), and it will remain strong until Wednesday evening. We might want to take advantage of the opportunities this aspect provides — it’s an excellent time for following our own path and inspiring others to do the same — and for simply having fun and boosting our self-confidence. In fact, we may well feel particularly vital and confident — and inner optimism can bring rewards.
Humor can be a big part of this aspect too: We are able to laugh wholeheartedly, and see only possibility in our lives, especially around exploring our connections with others, exchanging information, and learning about ourselves; whether these explorations are long-term or short-term, they can bring about a healthy shift of attitude toward our personal goals and passions.
Imagine you have a special lens that shows you the “bigger picture”: What do your beliefs about yourself look like as you gaze through it?
Do you have your Ascendant, Career Point (or personal planets) in 0-5 degrees of Gemini, Aries, Aquarius, or Sagittarius? 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 Sagittarius (the Sun rules Leo; Jupiter is the ruler of Sagittarius).
Monday very late evening,an opportune Mercury/Mars aspectbecomes exact at 11:27pm EDT. We started to feel this aspect buildfrom last Sunday evening (May 22nd) and it will remain strong until Wednesday evening. This aspect provides an opportunity to connect thought to action. Body and mind can align; words and deeds connect with ease. As with any opportunity, we have to “take” this one: it will not happen by itself.
Ask yourself: What actions call to me today? How are those actions connected to my personal values? Or to spiritual or creative endeavors that call for a practical approach?
Do you have your Ascendant, Career Point (or any personal planets) in the following placements: 27-29 degrees of Taurus, Pisces, Capricorn, or Scorpio, or 0-2 degrees of Gemini, Aries, Aquarius, or Sagittarius? If so, you may be more aware of this opportunity. This is also true for those of us who have our Ascendant or Sun-sign in Gemini, Virgo, or Aries (Mercury is the ruler of Gemini and Virgo; Mars rules Aries).

Also, another quick announcement: We have our monthly Forecasting Forum coming up on Saturday (May 21st)… please see the very bottom of this Weekly Forecast for more info!
Monday, the Moon remains in passionate, all-or-nothing Scorpio until 7:50am EDT; with this Moon placement, we feel things deeply and have “X-Ray Vision” and “Bullshit-Smelling Abilities” 😉
Monday very early morning, at 12:14am EDT, the Moon opposes the Sun (in 25 degrees of Scorpio/Taurus).The entrance of the Moon into Scorpio (on May 14th) began the energetic build-up towards this powerful Full Moon.
This powerful Full Moon is a Total Lunar Eclipse that can be viewed in the Central, Eastern, and European Times zones.The duration of totality lasts 85.5 minutes (= 1.5 hrs).This means that we will feel the influence of this Lunar Eclipse for 45 days.
This particular Lunar Eclipse is the second of two Eclipses within a two-week period; it offers an opportunity for a deeper, more authentic connection with ourselves and others. Our physical and emotional bodies strongly feel the intensity of it all, so keep in mind: Eclipses ultimately support a shift in consciousness and thus bring us closer to our Soul’s path.
During a Lunar Eclipse, the Full Moon slowly dims as it passes through the Earth’s shadow, stimulating our emotional body and increasing our awareness of unconscious patterns and fears. If you’d like to learn more, and as a Member of my online community, click here to watch my Lunar Eclipse video.
As you might know from my last Solar Eclipse video, Eclipses are always powerfully connected to the Moon Nodes and thus to our Soul’s Journey (both collectively and individually). The Moon Nodes remain in polarity for 18 months. They have been in Taurus-Scorpio since Jan. 18th, 2022, highlighting issues around emotional & physical stability, finance, and our relationship with our physical environment and natural resources.
The North Node in Taurus emphasizes the necessity of self-esteem and a healthy relationship with the physical world — with our bodies, resources, and the Earth. The South Node in Scorpio symbolizes our need to face our fears, heal old trauma, and own our power, so we can step into a more passionate relationship with life.
Eclipses reoccur in 19-year cycles. On May 15/16th, 2003, there was a Lunar Eclipse at 24º53’ Scorpio-Taurus, very close to the degree of this Eclipse. Ask yourself: What areas of my life needed to be addressed back then? Where am I being called to make major changes now?
All Eclipses transmit new energetic codes and transformative downloads, symbolized by the signs involved, in this case: The Moon in passionate, all-or-nothing Scorpio opposes the Sun in steady, peaceful Taurus.
There are several aspects worth mentioning in this Full Moon-Lunar Eclipse chart: a T-Square with Saturn in Aquarius as the Focus point, Pluto (the ruler of Scorpio), Mars (the co-ruler of Scorpio), and Neptune, all make harmonious aspects to the Eclipse polarity, Venus (the ruler of Taurus) aligns with Chiron in Aries, Mercury and Pluto are in their Retrograde motions, Jupiter is in 0º of Aries, and last but not least, Uranus, again, plays a big role in this Eclipse chart — and we will address all of them in a moment.
I should also mention that we focused on both Eclipses, as they relate to our own individual birth charts, in our recent Forecasting Forum “Eclipse season & Pluto Station, April-May 2022”:click here for more info or to purchase this webinar — and feel free to re-listen to it, if you are already a Star Member — if you are at that Membership level, it was emailed to you on April 16th.
Since this Lunar Eclipse is almost a continuation of the last Lunar Eclipse in November of 2021, in 27º of Taurus-Scorpio, we can check to see how far we have come since then, when it comes to facing our fears and valuing ourselves and our authentic relationships to others. Ask yourself: What fears or inauthentic (or even toxic) relationships must I still release or transform if I am to step into greater abundance and happiness in my life?
For the next 45 days, we seek the balance and integration of two polarities and are aware that something needs to be brought into alignment; the balance in question is between our physical attachments, aversions, and connections — symbolized by Taurus— and our emotional attachments, aversions, and connections (Scorpio).
The time of the Lunar Eclipse brings greater awareness to what was unconscious or hidden previously. This particular one invites us to let go of fears or disempowering behaviors and thereby break through to the next level of our evolution, individually and collectively.
So, here’s this Eclipse’s central question: As a society, are we living in alignment with our values, with what makes us happy and satisfied? How about as individuals? Do we feel empowered and emotionally fulfilled? Are there any fears in our way to achieving progress? Or any rigid thought processes? All right, let’s look at the signs involved in this polarity,… To read the whole Lunar Eclipse article, and get all the Coaching questions, click here.
Because Eclipses are so powerful, they require a bigger orb than a regular Full or New Moon. I usually use a 5º orb instead of 2º… so since this Lunar Eclipse takes place in 25º of Scorpio…
Do you have your Ascendant, Career Point (or personal planets) in 20-29 degrees of Scorpio, Taurus, Leo, Aquarius, or 0 degrees of Sagittarius, Gemini, Virgo, or Pisces? If so, you are more affected by this month’s powerful Full Moon/Lunar Eclipse. 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).
Monday early morning, at 5:28am EDT, we enter a Moon VoC, that will last for almost 2.5 hours, until 7:50am EDT. Use this intuitive time as an opportunity to focus on inner processes. As best as you can, release any fears or traumas that keep you stuck in the past, and deepen your connection to what you feel deeply passionate about out there in the world — you have an opportunity to become fully committed to a project or task now — something that might serve you 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 Monday very early morning until morning ahead of time.
Monday morning, at 7:50am EDT, the Moon moves into optimistic, adventurous, truth-seeking Sagittarius, where it will journey until Wednesday morning. We’re strongly motivated to explore and learn. We’re not likely to be big fans of routine — diversity and new adventures work best at this time — we’re also physically restless and need to burn that off with activity and physical exercise.
We tend to feel more open, optimistic, and inspired — but we also have a high degree of independence — and taking these two influences together, means we’d rather inspire others to do things our way, as opposed to issuing or obeying orders. Inspiring others could come easier than normal, as we can see the bigger picture, leaving us confident that others will agree with us, once they see what we see.
As best as you can, speak your truth without assuming that everyone is on the same page as you. Improvisation works well for us at this time, as we are spontaneous and love living on the edge — just watch out you aren’t overdoing or overstating things.

On May 10th at 7:22pm EDT, Jupiter changed signs from creative, sensitive, and intuitive Pisces to independent, direct, fast-moving Aries. Its first pass through Aries will last until Oct. 28th, 2022. It will then journey again through Pisces until December of 2022; then Jupiter makes its second move into Aries on Dec. 20th, this time until May 16th, 2023.
In our individual natal chart, the position of Jupiter reveals how we express generosity and tolerance, and how we go about trusting others and improving our lives.
Ask yourself: Where do I look for wisdom and understanding? Where do I need movement and spaciousness? Where do I feel optimistic and have faith that things will turn out ok?
Jupiter represents the principle of expansion — it operates like a magnifying glass. It’s been in Pisces since mid-May, 2021 (with the exception of August until December 2021). During its time in Pisces, the magnifying glass was looking at creating more opportunities for (and through) spiritual or creative endeavors. We likely could also have felt a desire to contribute to life from a heart-centered place. This may have been an inner process for some, or an external process related to how we experience connecting with others — or around feeling interconnected with our fellow humans.
Jupiter in Aries, on the other hand, brings the magnifying lens to bear on our individual passions and goals. The opportunity now is to bring the enthusiastic energies of Jupiter to the fulfillment of our own desires — and to get excited about new paths and new projects.
This aspect also promotes a greater understanding of our potential to expand our passionate self and its goals — and fearlessly bring that energy to the world.
Again, Jupiter will be in Ariesuntil Oct. 28th, 2022, and then will return to that sign from Dec. 20th, 2022, through May 16th, 2023. During these two periods, we attract good fortune when we are enthusiastic and direct, moving things forward with an optimistic attitude, and bringing inspirational fire to our interactions with others.
We value instant results and are motivated by competition, believing in ourselves and our ability to do it on our own; we are best served by enthusiasm and faith in the power of positivity.
We are each particularly invited to walk our own path and fearlessly explore new avenues that lead to new adventures. Possibilities are strong for tremendous creativity, self-expression, and recognition of our ability to positively influence our circumstances.
We also likely develop far more faith in ourselves. Adventures, self-growth, and athletic pursuits can all bring us great pleasure and a sense of rejuvenation. We are optimistic and generous — with strong morals.
Jupiter in Aries helps to create…

All this is especially true if you are a Sagittarius or Aries Sun- or Rising-sign. As a Sagittarius, you will feel a greater need for independence — let’s hope that doesn’t show up as running away from your relationships 🙂 As an Aries, you will most likely feel a greater sense of possibility, together with a need to grow and expand your passions, over the next year (i.e. until May 2023).
Where does Jupiter-in-Aries fall in your own birth chart? What aspects does it make during this transit? How does a wise response to one house support a more fruitful response to the next? What outward opportunities arise as Jupiter interacts with any of your personal planets? Where might you experience a major expansion between now and May 2023? Where are you ready to forge your own path and make a positive impact?

This week’s headline items: Mercury comes to a halt and begins its 3-week Retrograde phase in Gemini on Tuesday morning, and Jupiter changes signs from Pisces to Aries that evening. The Sun aligns with the North Node in Taurus very early on Friday, and Pluto ends its Station phase on Saturday.
There will be three Moon VoC phases this week: Monday morning (for a little over 10 hours); Wednesday night/Thursday very early morning (for 2.5 hours), and Saturday early morning (for 2.5 hours).
Before we get to this week’s forecast, please know:
Eclipse season continues until May 26th. If you are experiencing something difficult, or feel these Eclipses weighing on you, please do not hesitate to reach out for support! My Coaching-Healing sessions are great support for people who are going through a life transition or relationship issues. Here is a testimonial from someone I am currently coaching:
“I have been in psychotherapy, I have worked with a clinical psychologist, and spent years in educational classes for self-improvement. And yet, all these modalities failed to make the difference that Sonja’s coaching is making in my life. She gets me to the root causes blocking my path. And it doesn’t take years! Often it happens in one or two sessions.
She is an extremely powerful, sensitive listener and highly tuned to looking for what is behind what I am actually saying, then gently opening that up. I always leave our life coaching sessions with a profound sense of ease and a loving trust for life. Thank you, Sonja. Thank you! ” — Alan C. (May 2022)
Now, this week’s Forecast…
Monday, May 9th:
Monday, the Moon remains in fun and attention-loving Leo until 6:53pm EDT. With this placement, we may lack objectivity and struggle with backing down or compromising. We all love to be admired — or at the very least acknowledged — for our greatness 🙂
So hand out some compliments — let people know how proud you are of them, and tell them how much you love them. Come from the heart in this and all other things… be honest and authentic, as best you can. Fun, games, and romance are a big part of this energy as well. You might also enjoy spending time with little ones.
If there are no “outer children” around, how about getting in touch with your “inner child” — it’s definitely easier for the rest of the day. What are you most grateful for today? What would be heaps and heaps of fun? What would be so much fun that you let out a tiny squeak just thinking of it?
Monday morning, at 8:39am EDT, we enter a Moon VoC, that will last for a little over 10 hours, until 6:53pm EDT. Use this intuitive time to focus on making realistic choices and setting healthy boundaries when it comes to connecting with others; do your best to bring your most authentic, joyful Self to a cause or interactions with like-minded people.
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 morning until the evening ahead of time.
Monday evening, at 6:53pm EDT, the Moon moves into detail-oriented, practical Virgo,where it will journey until Thursday very early morning; turning our focus toward the practical and wholesome. We are generous with our time/services and we love to help others. We also have a fondness for science and anything that makes sense in our world — things and knowledge we can apply and use.
Health might also come into focus at this time. We notice the parts that make up the whole; this is a great time to see if our daily routines (eating, work, self-care, etc.) align with our long-term goals.

On May 15/16th, at 12:14am EDT, the Moon opposes the Sun (in 25 degrees of Scorpio/Taurus).The entrance of the Moon into Scorpio (on May 14th) begins the energetic build-up towards this powerful Full Moon.

This week’s headline items: Venus changes signs from Pisces to Aries on Monday early afternoon; it is finally time to set our Solar Eclipse Intentions on Monday afternoon; Mercury begins its Station phase in Gemini on Tuesday, and its Station intensifies from Friday onwards; last but not least, the first Quarter Moon in Leo becomes exact on Sunday evening.
There will be three Moon VoC phases this week: Monday morning (for a brief 34 mins); Wednesday late afternoon (for 2.5 hours), and Saturday morning (for 1.5 hours).
Before we get to this week’s forecast, please know:
We are still in Eclipse season until May 26th. If you’re looking for guidance, I would suggest taking a look at your Natal Chart — the House placements of the Eclipses (10.5º of Taurus & 25º of Scorpio-Taurus) will indicate which areas of your life are the readiest to rise to a new level of consciousness.
Monday, the Moon remains in steady, peaceful Taurus until 6:47am EDT. 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.
Monday early morning, at 6:13am EDT, we enter a brief Moon VoC, that will last only 34 minutes until 6:47am EDT. Use this short intuitive time as an opportunity to connect with others in a gentle, compassionate way, and enjoy a good meal, a glass of wine, a massage… think “physical pleasures”.
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 early morning ahead of time.
Monday at 6:47am EDT, the Moon moves into chatty, versatile Gemini, where it will journey until Wednesday evening. For the next two days, we like to learn, connect and interact as much as possible. “Busy” feels good: connecting online, on the phone, or sharing face-to-face, preferably multi-tasking all the way…
The one thing we can do without is boredom: If our mind is not engaged in some way, we might as well curl up and play dead 🙂
Mondayat 12:10pm EDT, Venus changes signs from intuitive, creative, dreamy Pisces to fast-paced, enthusiastic, active Aries, where it will journey until May 28th.
Until May 28th, we are going to feel passionate about connecting to others. We are ready to make a new start: if you are single, this could be a great chance to start something new (all things being equal). With Venus in Aries, spontaneity and independence are important to us. You’re not the only one who likes a challenge, so don’t make it too easy for others to win you over.
If you are already in a committed relationship, you get a wonderful chance to bring freshness and excitement to your bedroom and “other parts of the house” 😉 We also have more energy than usual; we are more likely to want to get out of the house and be active with others.
All this is especially true if you are a Taurus, Libra, or Aries Sun-sign or Rising-sign. As an Aries, beauty and love will enter your life during this time, you will feel more attractive and you will attract things to you. As a Taurus or Libra, you will feel more energized, passionate, and more than usually direct.
Mondayfrom 4:28pm EDT on, it’s finally time to set our Solar Eclipse Intentions…. since we just had an Eclipse, we get to set some powerful intentions for the entire length of an Eclipse cycle — in other words, for the next 6 months!
Until4:28pm EDT on Wednesday (May 4th) is the best and most potent time to do so!
Make them powerful: They cover the next six months. If possible, align them with the Taurus energy that I spoke about in my Solar Eclipse video — feel free to watch it again if you are not sure anymore — click here to watch my video.
While writing your intentions, ask yourself: What would I need to add or subtract from my life to better experience it as peace, abundance, and radiant love? Might adding a daily dash of love, grace, and gratitude add to my joy on this physical journey?
How might meditation or mindfulness — simply being present in the now-moment to all the energies inside and around me — support my enjoyment of life?

This week’s headline items: Mercury enters its pre-shadow phase on Monday night/Tuesday very early morning, and the Balsamic Moon phase begins in Pisces on Tuesday evening; Pluto comes to a halt, starting its 5-month Retrograde phase on Friday afternoon, and Mercury changes signs from Taurus to Gemini on Friday evening; a powerful New Moon/Solar Eclipse in Taurus becomes exact on Saturday late afternoon; Mars at 12.5º of Pisces squares Dec. 4th’s Solar Eclipse degree on Sunday morning.
There will be three Moon VoC phases this week: Monday morning (until 6:15am EDT); Wednesday late morning (for 2.5 hours), and Friday early evening (for almost 2.5 hours)
Before we get to this week’s forecast, please know:
We are in Eclipse season until May 26th, so as best as you can, surrender any fears, and trust the process. If you find yourself “going down the rabbit hole”, please reach out for a session with Lia or me — we are happy to support you ==> Lia offers Readings (including 25-minute Readings), and of course, I offer a multitude of Readings.
If what you are experiencing is emotional in nature, please consider one or more Coaching-Healing sessions with me — this Eclipse season is an opportunity to process things from the past that have been long overdue.
Now, this week’s Forecast…
Monday, April 25th:
Monday, the Moon remains in freedom-loving, forward-thinking Aquarius and VoC until 6:15am EDT; at which time, the Moon moves into creative, sensitive Pisces, where it will journey until Wednesday early afternoon. 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?
Monday night/Tuesday very early morning around 2am EDT,Mercury enters its pre-Shadow phasewhen it reaches 26º of Taurus; this is two weeks prior to its Retrograde phase (which starts on May 10th at almost 5º of Gemini).
What is the Shadow phase? The period immediately before and after a planet’s Retrograde phase is referred to as the “Shadow phase”; at these times, the planet travels once more through the degrees of a sign (or signs) that it had already passed through before and during its Retrograde phase. Mercury is usually in its shadow for about two to three weeks prior to a retrograde, and for three to four weeks after.
If you want to buy, sell or ship big-ticket items — especially connected to transportation (cars, airline tickets, etc.) or communication devices (phone, computer, iPad, etc.) — be aware of the Shadow periods as well as the Retrograde phases. If possible, get these things done before Mercury enters its pre-Shadow or wait until after the post-Shadow phase is over — post-Shadow phase will end on June 18th (in this case 😉
Of course, if there is something that must get done during these phases, don’t put your whole life on hold, just because Mercury is Retrograde or in its Shadow. Sometimes things line up exactly at the right time; as best as you can, trust that it’s all “perfect” 😉

On April 30th, at 4:28pm EDT, a powerful New Moon/Solar Eclipse becomes exact in 10.5 degrees of Taurus. Solar Eclipses are extra-powerful New Moons that take place approximately every 6 months — this is the first in 2022, and also the first Solar Eclipse in Taurus (in this particular Eclipse cycle that will be in effect until July 2023) you may also want to watch my Solar Eclipse video.
During a Solar Eclipse, the Moon momentarily interrupts the normal flow of Solar Radiation, destabilizing existing configurations of energy, and reorganizing consciousness to a higher level. Solar Eclipses indicate the beginning of a new experience, project, or cycle.
Eclipses usually come in pairs (Solar and Lunar), and “Eclipse seasons” start approximately 10 days before the first Eclipse of the pair, and continue through the second.
This particular Eclipse season began on April 20th, 10 days before the Solar Eclipse becomes exact, and it will end 10 days after the Lunar Eclipse in Scorpio that follows this Solar Eclipse (in other words, by May 26th, 2022).
While Eclipse season is underway, allow for new templates to download, stay centered, and do your best to ground from within — try using conscious breathing and conscious flexibility — and best of all, see if you can move to the “observer position” when it comes to the emotional and mental body. And remember, this won’t last forever: on May 26th, the downloads are complete 😉
Eclipses are a time for clarifying and affirming our highest path. We are bound to experience a release and recalibration of some sort — “old” codes will get deleted and new ones downloaded — and this is especially true in connection with our relationship to the physical world.
This begins with the relationship to ourselves, our body, our talents, whether we value ourselves enough to ask for our worth, whether we are able to say “No” to something that is not in alignment with our values or doesn’t honor our body. This helps us to be more aware of how much we love ourselves and our physical experience on this planet.
The Sun and Moon are connected to one of the Moon Nodes during an Eclipse, alternating between North and South Node Eclipses, emphasizing the evolutionary upgrades that are available to us during such times. This is the first North Node Solar Eclipse in Taurus since the Moon Nodes moved into the Taurus-Scorpio polarity on January 18th, 2022.
North Node Eclipses help us move towards a new exploration of an energy that promotes our Soul’s evolution. They ask us to focus on the energies of the sign involved in the Eclipse (Taurus, in this case) and work with the lighter/higher frequencies of those energies as much as possible. They highlight our ability for individual and collective growth and evolution.
Eclipses are crossroads or turning points along our Soul’s Journey. They are often marked by events or situations that signify a critical shift in our lives, nudging us to either change and grow, or face greater difficulties at the next turning point. In this case, the next turning point will be on August 2nd — when the Sun is in Leo squares this month’s Solar Eclipse degree.
Solar Eclipses, in particular, often correspond to major endings and beginnings. They occur close to the same degree every 19 years, and the last time we had a New Moon in this particular degree and sign while the North Node was traveling through Taurus was on May 1st, 2003. Although this was not yet an Eclipse because the North Node was too far away from the New Moon, by degree, this particular New Moon certainly started Eclipse Season that year.
We are likely to experience a resonance between now and that time — “resonance”, not repetition — so think back to the Spring of 2003, and ask yourself: Were there any major endings and beginnings? What was important to me back then? If I were to take those priorities to the next level, where would that next level find me?
If you’re looking for more guidance on those questions, I would suggest taking a look at your Natal Chart — the House placement of the Eclipse will indicate which area of life is the readiest to embrace abundance and rise to a new level of consciousness around self-worth and honoring the Self.
Solar Eclipses are also a good time to go within and seed anything we would like to learn over the next 6 months — we’ll dig into this in more detail towards the end of this article when we talk about setting Solar Eclipse Intentions. Please note that setting Intentions for Solar Eclipses is different from a regular New Moon! So stayed tuned!
One major thing to note in this New Moon/Solar Eclipse chart: we have one planet in a very exalted state (Pluto in Capricorn starts its Retrograde phase the day before the Eclipse) and one planet conjunct the Eclipse(Uranus in Taurus) — both of those planets are…

Because Eclipses are so powerful, they require a bigger orb than a regular Full or New Moon. I usually use a 5º orb instead of 2º… so since this Solar Eclipse takes place in 10.5 degrees of Taurus:
Do you have your Ascendant, Career Point (or personal planets) in 5-16 degrees of Taurus, Scorpio, Leo or Aquarius? If so, you may feel the effects of this New Moon more strongly; 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)
Setting Intentions for a Solar Eclipse is a little different from the regular monthly New Moon process — after all, we are setting them for the whole 6-month Eclipse cycle, rather than just the next 28 days.
Solar Eclipse Intentions are best done 48 hours after the Eclipse becomes exact. We are downloading new templates at the time of an Eclipse, and the energies are quite intense, so we want to wait until it all settles down a little before setting our intentions — that said, we definitely do not want to set them during a Moon void of course.
Given all this, here are the best and most potent times to set your Intentions for this Solar Eclipse: Between 4:28pm, on May 2nd, and 4:28pm, on May 4th. Note that all times in this article are given in US Eastern Time — i.e., the New York time zone.
Set powerful intentions — remember, they cover the next six months — and if possible, align them with the Taurus energy!
If you live in a timezone other than EDT, and converting time zones isn’t your thing, I suggest joining my Facebook Fan-page and/or following me on Twitter, as I post reminders on those platforms when it’s time to set your intentions 😉

This week’s headline items: The Sun changes sign from Aries to Taurus late on Tuesday evening; Eclipse season begins on Wednesday; the last Quarter Moon in Aquarius becomes exact on Saturday morning; Pluto’s station intensifies from Saturday on.
There will be four Moon VoC phases this week: Monday evening (for almost 2.5 hours); Wednesday late afternoon (for 7 hours); Friday late evening (for almost 2.5 hours) and Sunday evening (for almost 10 hours).
Before we get to this week’s forecast, please know:
If you missed my Forecasting Forum last week, and still would like to learn how to align yourself with the current energies, feel free to get the mp4-video presentation “Eclipse season & Pluto Station, April – May 2022” — and see how this relates to your own Birth Chart.
The upcoming Eclipses (exact on April 30th & May 16th, 2022) signifies a new beginning.
It is the beginning of a 6 months Eclipse cycle (until Oct. 25th, 2022)
What evolutionary upgrade are you getting? What’s unfolding over the next 6 months?
Where are you looking to make some changes in your life?
How will this Eclipse season impact people with planets or points/angles in 5-15º or 20-29º of Taurus, Scorpio, Leo, or Aquarius?
“Thank you, Sonja, very informative webinar, much appreciated!” — Deb E.
Star Members: check your email for the link to the mp4-video recording and enjoy watching it! I sent it out on April 16th in the early evening.
Now, this week’s Forecast…
Monday, April 18th:
Monday, the Moon remains in passionate, all-or-nothing Scorpio until 10:16pm EDT. With this placement, we feel things deeply and have “X-Ray Vision” and “Bullshit-Smelling Abilities”.
Emotional authenticity is extremely important to us at this time; anything less than 100% emotional honesty could be perceived as flat-out dishonest. Once we feel safe trusting someone, we want to merge with them, preferably forever… as long as our trust is never betrayed.
The Moon in Scorpio urges us to uncover our own power. This occurs by a process of subtraction — it urges us to let go of whatever disempowers us. It’s thus an excellent time to look at “old” fears, limiting habits, or emotional attachments, especially those stemming from past traumas.
Moon in Scorpio tends to run right over ambiguity — it’s “in or out”, “with us or against us”, “love me or leave me”. It can therefore be stormy — a cold winter storm, or a torrid tropical storm of passion, depending on how we “work” the energies 🙂
Monday very early morning, an opportune Venus/Uranus aspect becomes exact at 3:15am EDT.We started to feel this aspect build from last week, Saturday morning (April 16th) on, and it will remain strong until Tuesday evening. This gives us the opportunity to experiment with how we relate to others — to do something different or unusual — freedom plays a big part in this aspect.
Of course, others are experimenting too, so you might experience some unusual or unexpected interactions during this time — it’s a favorable time for social meetings and events — especially anything spiritual or creative in nature. As best as you can, stay open and flexible: fresh air is blowing through your relationships.
We’re also ready to experiment with our financial undertakings — good places to look: all things “tech” (electronics, technology, internet); metaphysics; the arts; group activities. This is not the best time to make long-term financial investments that are not suggested in an intuitive flash 😉
Do you have your Ascendant, Career Point (or personal planets) in 12-16 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 Taurus, Libra or Aquarius (Venus is the ruler of Taurus and Libra, Uranus rules Aquarius).
Monday late morning, a challenging Sun/Pluto aspect becomes exact at 11:14am EDT. We started to feel this aspect build from last week, Friday evening (April 15th) on, and it will remain strong until this Thursday evening (April 21st). What we identify ourselves with could now be challenged. This aspect forces us to confront our will, power, assertion, and authority.
Coming into focus now: the relationship with a father- or other important male-figures. We may face the need to be more independent, assertive, and autonomous.
We may alienate others with a controlling, jealous, or overbearing manner. This manner stems from a deep fear of letting go and surrendering to the idea that some things cannot be directed or controlled. We are learning to detach from (let go of) something or someone that no longer serves us — the “something” could include attitudes.
This fear may lead us to compulsive, suspicious, or difficult behavior, costing us the very thing that we hold dear. As best as you can, open yourself up to the power of love within. When you do, you will discover your own strength, and rework your very identity. Perhaps most importantly, this aspect puts us face to face with exactly what’s been holding us back from leading a fuller, more meaningful life.
We may have to make some changes or adjustments between our immediate personal desires and our long-term goals. As best as you can, be open to receiving feedback from others during this time.
If you feel pressured into doing something or you feel a power struggle build, as best as you can, get centered, get grounded and open your heart and mind. This aspect is a major growth opportunity for us: we struggle with buried elements of our personality and ego, learning to face, accept and transform them.
Do you have your Ascendant, Career Point (or personal planets) in the following placements: 25-29 degrees of Aries, Capricorn, Libra, or Cancer, or 0-1 degrees of Taurus, Aquarius, Leo or Scorpio? If so, you will be more affected by this aspect.This is also true for those of us who have our Ascendant or Sun-sign in Leo or Scorpio (the Sun is the ruler of Leo; Pluto rules Scorpio)
Monday evening, at 7:55pm EDT, we enter a Moon VoC that lasts for almost 2.5 hours, until 10:16pm EDT. Use this intuitive time as an opportunity to focus on inner processes. As best as you can, release any fears or traumas that keep you stuck in the past, and deepen your connection to what you feel deeply passionate about out there in the world — you have an opportunity to become fully committed to a project or task now — something that might serve you 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 Monday evening ahead of time.
Monday late evening, at 10:16pm EDT, the Moon moves into optimistic, adventurous, truth-seekingSagittarius, where it will journey until Wednesday lateevening. We’re strongly motivated to explore and learn. We’re not likely to be big fans of routine — diversity and new adventures work best at this time — we’re also physically restless and need to burn that off with activity and physical exercise.
We tend to feel more open, optimistic and inspired — but we also have a high degree of independence — and taking these two influences together, this means we’d rather inspire others to do things our way, as opposed to issuing or obeying orders. Inspiring others could come easier than normal, as we can see the bigger picture, leaving us confident that others will agree with us, once they see what we see.
As best as you can, speak your truth without assuming that everyone is on the same page as you. Improvisation works well for us at this time, as we are spontaneous and love living on the edge — just watch out you aren’t overdoing or overstating things.

This week’s headline items: Saturn squares the Moon Nodes late on Monday morning; Jupiter aligns with Neptune in Pisces on Tuesday late morning; Mars changes signs from Aquarius to Pisces on Thursday late evening; on Friday, Pluto starts its Station phase (i.e. it slows down, preparing to go retrograde); Mercury moves over the upcoming Solar Eclipse degree (10.5º Taurus) on Saturday early morning; the Full Moon in Libra becomes exact on Saturday afternoon.
There will be three Moon VoC phases this week: Tuesday early morning (for almost 4 hours); Thursday afternoon (2.5 hours); and Saturday early evening (almost 2.5 hours).
Before we get to this week’s forecast, just a reminder:

If you receive a direct message from someone who claims to be me (or claims to represent me) via any social media platform, please email me right away to let me know. Lia is the only Soul-Based Astrologer that is currently working with me, and she will also never ask you for money or rush you into making any kind of decision.
Now, this week’s Forecast…
Monday, April 11th:
Monday, the Moon remains in fun and attention-loving Leo all day. It will journey there until Tuesday late morning. We may lack objectivity and struggle with backing down or compromising. We all love to be admired — or at the very least acknowledged — for our greatness 🙂
So hand out some compliments — let people know how proud you are of them, tell them how much you love them. Come from the heart in this and all other things… be honest and authentic, as best you can. Fun, games, and romance are a big part of this energy as well. You might also enjoy spending time with little ones.
If there are no “outer children” around, how about getting in touch with your “inner child” — it’s definitely easier for the next 24-hours. What are you most grateful for today? What would be heaps and heaps of fun? What would be so much fun, you let out a tiny squeak, just thinking of it?
Monday late morning, at around 10:30am EDT, Saturn’s Square to the Moon Nodes (22º57’ of Taurus-Scorpio) becomes exact when it reaches 22º57’ of Aquarius. This aspect started to build from March 18th on, and it will still be strong until June 17th (due to Saturn’s Station Retrograde phase in May/June).
We get a major opportunity to stretch and grow in regards to our collective and individual Soul’s Journey right now! Squares ask for a shift in perception and direction; they challenge us to go beyond what is divisive and destructive and instead to move towards what creates growth and abundance.
They mark turning points — and this one is a turning point in our ability to contribute something within our own communities, and to (one by one) create a future we actually want to live into.
Ask yourself: Where do I need to decide to take more responsibility within my communities or with like-minded people? What might it make possible for me and my communities if I got really clear about what future I would like to live into?
What role do thoughtful commitments and collaborative spirit play in all of this? How about taking responsibility for how I show up in my various communities? Am I able to be myself? Do I dare to be authentic? Do I speak my truth responsibly? Do I allow others to be themselves? To speak their truth?
We feel a tremendous sense of commitment and obligation right now towards our various networks or affiliations; however, this may also create a lot of pressure and we could start to be very hard on ourselves or others.
We may start “should-ing” on ourselves or others. When we “should” on ourselves, we tend to feel more pressure, and therefore inclined to rebel. But then of course, when we rebel, we also tend to feel guilty about that… the result can be a heavy heart, anxiety, or stress.
When “shoulds” come up, ask yourself: What if I ran my “shoulds” through a computer that could only answer “Heck, Yes!” or “No way”? What if I turned the “shoulds” into “coulds”? What if I just powerfully chose, one way or another? And having chosen, could I take 100% responsibility for my choice?
Let’s look at an example: “I should get in touch with so and so” becomes “I choose to get in touch with so and so” or “I am choosing to not get in touch with so and so right now, I am choosing to do it at a later time — perhaps not at all”. It takes some of the pressure off and we also feel less guilty if we are not following through right away.
Monday evening is a time to feel excited about life. Things flow nicely during this time; create something that brings you joy, connects to your heart, and gets you dancing in the rain 🙂 (Moon in Leo trines Sun in Aries, exact at 7:01pm EDT)
Monday evening, we are being invited to focus on making realistic choices when it comes to connecting with others; do your best to be your most authentic, joyful Self when connecting with like-minded people. (Moon in Leo opposes Saturn in Aquarius, exact at 8:50pm EDT)
Monday late evening feels a little uneasy. We need to develop inner awareness around two seemingly opposite pulls: on the one hand, our sensitivity and connection to all of life; on the other, our need for self-expression, play, and fun.
We are invited to make some internal adjustments. We may want to express ourselves, but we may also need to be gentle and kind to ourselves and others. The question to ask yourself: Could I allow myself to feel into the mismatch of those two desires? As best as you can, make adjustments as needed, and drop any self-judgment (Moon in Leoquincunxes Neptune in Pisces, exact at 10:42pm EDT)

On April 16th at 2:55pm EDT,the Full Moon becomes exact in almost 27 degrees of Libra. All Full Moons bring an opportunity for increased awareness and integration of the traits connected to the relevant Full Moon polarities, especially those that have been neglected or suppressed.
This Full Moon has heightened effects on us for two important reasons: first, Pluto is exalted and in a square aspect to the Full Moon! Secondly, Saturn makes an exact Square to the Moon Nodes in Scorpio-Taurus. All of this increases emotionality and fosters larger shifts in consciousness.
So the questions here are: What am I aware of? What will I choose? Where will I focus my mind? My Heart? What might become possible if I got 5% more comfortable with being in transition?
There are some other aspects in this Full Moon chart, and we will address all of them in a moment — and if you are a Member of my online community,feel free to also watch my Full Moon video here
A quick announcement: Please know that I would never reach out to anyone individually on social media, and ask them for money. I will also never rush you to make a decision when it comes to booking a Reading or any of my other Services. If you receive a message from someone who claims to be me, or claims to be working for me, via any social media platform, please email me right away to let me know. Lia is the only Soul-Based Astrologer that is currently working with me, and she will also never ask you for money or rush you into making any kind of decision.
On April 14th, the Moon enters Libra; this starts the energetic build-up towards the Full Moon — and almost 46 hours later, the Sun in Aries opposes the Moonin Libra.
Ask yourself: How far have I come with the Intentions I set around April 1st’s New Moon? If I’m not where I’d like to be with those intentions, what new course might take me closer to my goals?
The Libra-Aries polarity highlights the spiritual dance between various polarities:
* individual drives/goals and one-on-one relationships
* masculine and feminine
* independence and collaboration
Whether we are single or partnered up, we are all in relationship to someone — any one-on-one relationship counts here — business, personal, health-related, etc.
For the next two weeks, we seek balancebetween…

This week’s headline items: Venus changes signs from Aquarius to Pisces on Tuesday late morning; Mars squares the Moon Nodes on Tuesday afternoon; from Wednesday morning on, it’s time to start to take action on our New Moon intentions; the first Quarter Moon in Cancer becomes exact on Friday night/Saturday very early morning; Mercury changes signs from Aries to Taurus on Sunday late evening.
There will be three Moon VoC phases this week: Monday late evening (for a little over 1 hour); Wednesday late evening (for a little over 12 hours); and Saturday evening (for 3 hours).
Before we get to this week’s forecast…one more time, two upcoming events:
1– On April 8th at 8:30pm ET a 75 min. webinar for EAS (Edmonton Astrology Society) about “Where we can learn about Emotional Maturity in our Birth Chart”. Click here to register for this webinar (once you are at EAS’s events page, scroll down to the bottom of the page to register)
2– On April 16th at 11:30am ET my monthly Forecasting Forum (a 90+ min. webinar) about the upcoming Eclipse season (April 20th – May 26th) & Pluto’s Station/Retrograde phase in 28.5º of Capricorn (April 15th – May 14th, Rx begins on April 29th). For more info scroll down to the very bottom of the weekly forecast. To register for this month only, click here.
Now, this week’s Forecast…
Monday, April 4th:
Monday, the Moon remains in steady, peaceful Taurus until 11:04pm EDT. 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 rest of the day? It’s probably slowing down and getting in touch with whatever delights our senses 😉
Monday late evening, a Mars/Saturn alignment in 22.5 degrees of Aquarius becomes exact at 9:51pm EDT. We started to feel this aspect build from last week, Thursday (March 31st) on, and it will remain strong until this Friday night. This is a message to take it slow and steady and bring some focus to our future visions.
The last Mars/Saturn cycle started in March 31st, 2020 (in 0 degrees of Aquarius), it is now coming to an end — and this new cycle will last until April 2024.
We need to learn to harness our enthusiasm and look at the reality of things. If we want to make progress right now, we need to take it one step at a time. As best as you can, be sure to have a solid vision before zooming ahead.
Given that this alignment is taking place in Aquarius, we are invited to take a closer look at our communities or affiliations (locally and online), at our long-term visions for humanity or like-minded people, and at the practical implications of our actions taken in connection with those causes or networks. We must recognize that an undivided focus on such things can help us achieve our visions just as much as our talents and ambition.
This is also a great time to commit to a new project connected to social responsibilities, or network building; it could also be connected to a special cause or community project (in person or online).
Ask yourself: What would a stable foundation for my various projects look like? What is something truly responsible, small or large, that I could do for my communities or social networks?
Those of us who have their Ascendant (or personal planets) in 19-26 degrees of Aquarius, Leo, Taurus, Scorpio will be most affected by this alignment. This is also true for those of us who have our Ascendant or Sun-sign in Aries or Capricorn (Mars rules Aries; Saturn is the ruler of Capricorn).
Monday late evening, at 9:53pm EDT, we enter a brief Moon VoC for a little over 1 hour, until 11:04pm EDT. Use this intuitive time to make some adjustments – on the one hand, we need to experience peace and physical pleasure; on the other, we want to connect with like-minded people around our future visions. You could frame this as “Massage? Or Astrology Gathering?” 🙂
However this shows up for us, we may need to make some adjustments or find creative solutions between two needs that are seemingly at odds.
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 ahead of time.
Monday late evening, 11:04pm EDT the Moon moves into chatty, versatile Gemini, where it will journey until Thursday late morning. For the next two days, we like to learn, connect and interact as much as possible.
“Busy” feels good: connecting online, on the phone, or sharing face-to-face, preferably multi-tasking all the way… The one thing we can do without is boredom: If our mind is not engaged in some way, we might as well curl up and play dead 🙂

With her Readings, her coaching and her Soul-Based Astrology Courses she aims to empower and support people in fulfilling their life’s potential and aligning with Soul Purpose.
On April 1st, at 2:24am EDT, the Moon aligns with the Sun in 11.5 degrees of Aries. This marks the beginning of a new Moon cycle; anything brand-new started in the next two weeks that is connected to some sort of healing process has the chance to get off to a great start. Click here to watch my New Moon video on the subject.
This New Moon chart has 3 planets and 3 asteroids in Aries. This line-up in Aries consists of Mercury, the Moon, the Sun, Chiron, Pallas Athena, and Eris. Chiron is the most popular of the asteroids, as it is connected to our Healing Process — and as such, it will be our focus for this New Moon chart.
We are all trying to do our best to show up as “whole beings” in the world, but our conditioning in the Western world is so focused on the masculine (doing, achieving, asserting) approach that we are having a hard time being ourselves completely (no matter what gender we were born into or what we identify as).
The masculine energies traditionally come with a lot of baggage as well. It is rare to see leaders or public figures show up as an example of the “sacred or divine masculine”. The unbalanced or immature version of the masculine brings a need to dominate, violate, force, destroy, overpower, and dictate to others — again this is not gender-specific.
When we look at history, we can very clearly identify this unbalanced, immature masculine energy. Even when we look at our world today, there is still a tremendous amount of this energy present, even though we have already started the process of integrating the divine feminine (allowing, receiving, nurturing, kindness), and healing the traditional masculine (through acceptance of our human limitations and compassion with those limitations).
As we balance our approach more and more, through integrating the divine feminine, and uplifting the sacred masculine, we are more capable to connect on a holistic level to ourselves and others: physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually.
Chiron in Aries shows us where we need to take this holistic approach in our lives and embrace ourselves fully and completely (including our insecurities, pain, and shame — in other words: our humanity).
We are being asked to not only embrace our own humanity but to acknowledge and take responsibility for the limitations the traditional masculine brings with it. Only then can we step more fully into the divine masculine — the fire within us that burns for self-realization, freedom to walk our own unique path, and courage to embrace all facets of ourselves (human & spirit). Ask yourself…

Do you have your Ascendant (or any personal planets) in 9-14 degrees of either Aries, Libra, Capricorn or Cancer? If so, you may feel the effects of this New Moon more strongly. 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 intentions for this month’s Moon cycle — this process is especially powerful with the New Moon in Aries — and as always, this is best done soon after the New Moon becomes exact (and definitely not during a Moon void of course).
So this month, we have two opportune times frames for setting intentions: The first one lasts 31.5 hours,between 2:24am on April 1st and 9:51am on April 2nd; the second lasts 13.5 hours,between 12:50pm on April 2nd and 2:24am on April 3rd (as always, all times are EDT- New York time).For more info on setting New Moon Intentions click here
If you live in a timezone other than EDT (US East Coast-time), I recommend you join my Facebook Fan-pageorfollow me on twitter as I post reminders on April 1st throughout the day, on April 2nd in the morning and then again in the afternoon/evening, to let you know when it is the most potent time to set your intentions 😉

This week’s headline items: the Balsamic Moon phase begins in Aquarius late Monday morning; Venus squares the Moon Nodes very early on Wednesday; the New Moon in Aries becomes exact very early on Friday morning.
There will be three Moon VoC phases this week: Monday late morning (for a little over 26 hours); Wednesday night/Thursday very early morning (for almost 3 hours); and Saturday late morning (for 3 hours).

Now, this week’s Forecast…
Monday, March 28th:
Monday, the Moon remains in freedom-loving, forward-thinking Aquarius all day. It will journey there until Tuesday very early morning. 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 late morning, at 10:11am EDT, we enter a Moon Void of Course (VoC), for a little over 26 hours, until 12:32am EDT (Monday night/Tuesday very early morning). 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 morning until Tuesday very early morning ahead of time.
Monday late morning, around 11am EDT, the Balsamic Moon phase begins in almost 23º ofAquarius. This lasts until Friday very early morning, when the New Moon in Aries becomes exact (more on that later this week…however, feel free to watch my video on the subject.
We are being asked to slow down and get quiet, so we can listen to our inner sensing/intuition. For some of us, this might be a stretch. As best as you can: stay grounded, take a deep breath, and exhale any tensions. Rather than starting something brand-new, put all that energy into completing existing projects or processes.
This is also a great time for letting go of whatever no longer serves us. What if you could hear the voice of your inner wisdom? What might it be saying?
Monday afternoon, a Venus/Saturn alignment in almost 22 degrees of Aquarius becomes exact at 3:27pm EDT. We started to feel this aspect build from last week, Friday evening (March 25th) on, and it will remain strong until this Thursday evening. This alignment brings a sense of maturity and commitment to our relationships or communities and the things we most value. Relationships feel stable and steady, although feelings are expressed reservedly, formally, or sparingly.
We experience a new sense of realism in existing collaborations. A sense of duty may lead us to sacrifice a personal pleasure to a “cause” or long-term goal.
We are ready to face any problems in relationships that have been swept under the carpet — and they will likely surface. Renewed ties to old friends, business collaborators, or group affiliations are possible — as is a new sense of responsibility in existing relationships. This is not the best time to get involved in a brand-new relationship, collaboration, group, or “good cause”.
Do you have your Ascendant, Career Point (MC), or personal planets in 19-25 degrees of Aquarius, Taurus, Leo, 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 Taurus, Libra, or Capricorn (Venus is the ruler of Taurus and Libra; Saturn is the ruler of Capricorn)

Now, this week’s Forecast…
Monday, March 21st:
Monday, the Moon remains in passionate, all-or-nothing Scorpio all day. It will journey there until Tuesday afternoon. We feel things deeply and have “X-Ray Vision” and “Bullshit-Smelling Abilities”.
Emotional authenticity is extremely important to us at this time; anything less than 100% emotional honesty could be perceived as flat-out dishonest. Once we feel safe trusting someone, we want to merge with them, preferably forever… as long as our trust is never betrayed.
The Moon in Scorpio urges us to uncover our own power. This occurs by a process of subtraction — it urges us to let go of whatever disempowers us. It’s thus an excellent time to look at “old” fears, limiting habits, or emotional attachments, especially those stemming from past traumas.
Moon in Scorpio tends to run right over ambiguity — it’s “in or out”, “with us or against us”, “love me or leave me”. It can therefore be stormy — a cold winter storm, or a torrid tropical storm of passion, depending on how we “work” the energies 🙂
Sunday night/Monday very early morning, a Mercury/Jupiter alignment in almost 19 degrees of Pisces becomes exact at 2:06am EDT. We started to feel this aspect build from last week, Friday night (March 18th) on, and it will remain strong until this Tuesday night. This alignment brings optimism and a tendency to talk and feel things out more; it favors exploring our intuitive world, connection to source, and learning about our ability to feel truly connected to our 6th sense.
We can more readily exercise good judgment, be more philosophical in our thinking, and bring whole-heartedness and compassion to our spiritual or creative endeavors, and connections with animals or beings that need our open heart at this time. There is a sense of mental expansion — we see our interconnectedness with others (and all that is alive) as a source of expansion and spiritual growth.
We are optimistic and enthusiastic, and things tend to go well as a result — it’s all about thinking big and opening our hearts. What if expanding our understanding around intuitive thoughts helped us better understand what it means to be a spirit being experiencing a human existence? What if that expanded understanding showed us how we might grow beyond the illusions of the physical world? What if it showed us how to navigate the physical world in a whole new way? An intuitive, heart-centered way? One that trusted life and our connection to all of life?
Do you have your Ascendant, Career Point (or personal planets) in 15-22 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 Gemini, Virgo, or Sagittarius (Mercury is the ruler of Gemini and Virgo, so those folks will always be affected more strongly by Mercury’s movements and aspects; Jupiter rules Sagittarius)
Monday early evening,an opportune Mars/Chiron aspect becomes exact at 5pm EDT. We started to feel this aspect build from last week, Friday evening (March 18th) on, and it will remain strong until this Thursday evening. This is an opportunity to accept the validity of our anger and desires so that we can learn to express these energies naturally and confidently.
This could also inspire us to make resolutions and take actions towards healing our physical/sexual wounds, as well as any wounds connected to self-identity. The same is true of our affiliations with other people or groups, and our masculine/doing/conquering energies. Remember: this is an “opportunity” — those aren’t necessarily handed to us, we have to make them happen.
Ask yourself: What if I brought understanding, compassion, and a kind approach to my reaction to anger (my own or others)? What if connecting to like-minded people that accepted me and my humanity would bring greater peace and acceptance to my wound around self-identity?
Do you have your Ascendant, Career Point (or personal planets) in 7-15 degrees of Aquarius, Aries, Gemini, or Sagittarius? If so, you will feel this aspect quite strongly. This is also true for those of us who have our Ascendant or Sun-sign in Aries (Mars rules Aries).

This week’s headline items: Late on Thursday morning, Mercury squares the degree of Dec. 4th’s Solar Eclipse; the Full Moon in Virgo becomes exact very early on Friday; the Sun changes signs from Pisces to Aries, Sunday late morning — in the Northern hemisphere, this also marks the Spring Equinox.

Please make sure that you adjust this for your location accordingly. For example, for the UK it will be 4 hours ahead instead of the usual 5 — that is until March 27th 😉

Now, this week’s Forecast…
Monday, March 14th:
Monday, the Moon remains in fun and attention-loving Leo all day. It will journey there until Tuesday night/Wednesday very early morning. We may lack objectivity and struggle with backing down or compromising. We all love to be admired — or at the very least acknowledged — for our greatness 🙂 So hand out some compliments — let people know how proud you are of them, tell them how much you love them. Come from the heart in this and all other things… be honest and authentic, as best you can.
Fun, games and romance are a big part of this energy as well. You might also enjoy spending time with little ones. If there are no “outer children” around, how about getting in touch with your “inner child” — it’s definitely easier for the next two days. What are you most grateful for today? What would be heaps and heaps of fun? What would be so much fun, you let out a tiny squeak, just thinking of it?
Monday very early morning, we are invited to make clear choices when it comes to engaging with a cause or with like-minded people. Do your best to find a balance between your need for heartfelt, joyful self-expression, and your desire for intellectually stimulating, inspirational actions. (Moon in Leo opposes Mars in Aquarius, exact at 3:17am EDT)
Monday early morning, feels a little uneasy. We need to develop an inner awareness around our two seemingly opposite pulls: on the one hand, we experience a strong desire to communicate and connect on an intuitive or spiritual level; on the other, we feel the need for play and fun.
We are asked to bring awareness to whatever it is we feel divinely connected to, that subtle inner voice that whispers to us… the question here becomes: are we after laughter and joy? Or gentle inner exploration and divine union? As best as you can, make adjustments as needed, and drop any self-judgment. (Moon in Leo quincunxes Mercury in Pisces, exact at 5:05am EDT)
Monday morning, we are invited to make clear choices when it comes to relating to others. Do your best to honor your own creative self-expression when connecting with like-minded people. (Moon in Leo opposes Venus in Aquarius, exact at 6am EDT)
Monday early afternoon, things flow nicely and we feel excited about new healing modalities. There’s an opportunity here to be compassionate toward ourselves and others and for connecting to our inner child. As best as you can, have fun when connecting with others, bring a healing quality to the table by tapping into your inner joy, explore things on a holistic level, and take a risk. (Moon in Leo trines Chiron in Aries, exact at 1:31pm EDT)
Monday afternoon, we may feel pulled in two quite different directions: On the one hand, we experience a need for connecting with our inner child-energy (creative self-expressions and joy), 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 Leo squares Uranus in Taurus, exact at 3:02pm EDT)

The next Full Moon will be “exact” on March 18th, at 3:18am EDT/7:18am GMT, in almost 28 degrees of Virgo — and by then, we are halfway through the Lunar cycle that started on March 2nd.
Take a look at the New Moon Intentions you set around March 2nd, and ask yourself: How far have I come with those Intentions? If I’m not where I’d like to be with them, what new course might bring me closer to my goals?
A Full Moon is always an opposition between the Moon and the Sun; during these oppositions, we seek balance, alignment and integration around two perspectives that seem like polar opposites. Very often, we experience this through our interactions with others, and since these interactions are also the pathway to resolution, relationships of all kinds are highlighted during Full Moons.
The balance we seek between Virgo and Pisces seems to be the fundamental challenge of our time: to integrate head and heart, science and intuition, discernment and compassion. This Full Moon shows each of us how far we have come with integrating those two seemingly opposite archetypes within ourselves — and how far we have yet to go.
This particular Full Moon has a planetary line-up known as a Stellium; it’s in Pisces, includes Mercury (the ruler of Virgo), and it connects favorably to the current Moon Nodes in Taurus/Scorpio. Pluto in Capricorn also plays an important role in this Full Moon chart. We will also look at the Venus-Mars alignment in Aquarius, and how it connects to other planets in this Full Moon chart. More about all of this in a moment… But first let’s take a look at the polarity of this Full Moon in general:
The Moon in Virgo opposes the Sun in Pisces. Virgo seeks personal and practical wholeness, while Pisces reminds us of a transcendent wholeness — our divinity and interconnectedness with all of life.
Virgo benefits from apprenticeship, whereas Pisces learns to trust inner guidance above all else — when balanced, we are able to discern without judgment, serve without obligation, and love all of creation, including ourselves.
Virgo analyzes, Pisces feels: We are invited to discern what’s real, so we can make healthier choices. To find the balance between Virgo and Pisces, ask yourself…

This week’s headline items: it’s time to start to take action on your New Moon intentions from Monday early morning on; Mercury squares Nov. 19th’s Lunar Eclipse degree very early on Tuesday; Mercury changes signs from Aquarius to Pisces on Wednesday evening; the first Quarter Moon in Gemini becomes exact early on Thursday morning.
Please note: Daylight Saving Time begins in the US on Sunday very early morning.
There will be three Moon VoC phases this week: Tuesday late morning (for a little over 4 hours); Thursday late morning (for almost 15 hours); and Sunday late morning (for almost 4 hours).
Now, this week’s Forecast…
Monday, March 7th:
Monday, the Moon remains in steady, peaceful Taurus all day. It will journey there until Tuesday early afternoon. 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 until Tuesday afternoon? It’s probably slowing down and getting in touch with whatever delights our senses
Monday after 6:49am EST, it is time to start to take action on your New Moon intentions.If you set Intentions on March 2nd or 3rd – after the New Moon became exact — today (Monday) will be the best time to take relevant actions.
If you wrote your intentions down, go back and take another look at what came through intuitively. If you didn’t write anything down, get quiet for a moment and check in with yourself: What actions are calling to me?
Monday late afternoon, on the one hand, we need to experience peace and physical pleasure; on the other, we need to take some time to focus on our future visions and see what’s realistic for us. We may need to make some adjustments between these two needs that are seemingly at odds. (Moon in Taurus squares Saturn in Aquarius, exact at 4:56pm EST)
Monday late evening, we have an opportunity to meet our need for material comfort with a gentler, more intuitive approach. Inner and outer beauty is key! (Moon in Taurus sextiles Neptune in Pisces, exact at 11:03pm EST)

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 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.

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 and 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 line up 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:…

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)
