Cutting Ourselves Some Slack — Forecast for April 15th – 21st
This week’s headline items: this week sees lots of planetary movements — on Monday, Pluto’s Station phase intensifies, on Tuesday, Jupiter’s Station phase ends, and Mercury exits its Shadow phase. Very early Wednesday, Mercury changes signs from Pisces to Aries, while on Friday morning, another Full Moon in Libra becomes exact. Early Saturday, the Sun changes signs from Aries to Taurus, and that afternoon, Venus changes signs from Pisces to Aries.
There will also be three Moon VoC phases this week: Tuesday night (for almost 7 hours), Friday morning (for a brief 1.5 hours) and Saturday night/Sunday very early morning (for 12 hours).
Before we get to this week’s forecast, I have one quick announcement: Last chance to sign up for this week’s Forecasting Forum, live on April 19th! Please note that we’ll talk about the Pluto & Saturn Station and Retrograde phases in April/early May. What is in your face in connections to structures you are currently building?

Now, this week’s Forecast…
Monday, April 15th:
Monday, the Moon remains in fun and attention-loving Leo and VoCuntil 6:14am EDT; at that time, the Moon moves into into detail-oriented, practical Virgo, where it will journey until Wednesday 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 come also 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.
Monday evening, a challenging Venus/Jupiter aspect becomes exact at 7:15pm EDT. We started to feel this aspect from last week, Saturday (April 13th) on; it will be strong until this Wednesday (April 17th). This aspect asks that we question our most fundamental beliefs and conditioning around money and relationships.
We have the opportunity here to grow beyond our understanding of what our values get us. Issues connected to love, relationships, and whatever is most valuable to us, can seem overwhelming at this time. This is because we have a tendency to overindulge or over-promise.
We mean well, because we are feeling quite optimistic at this time — but we may underestimate how much time we actually have, or how good a fit something actually is. Overspending, overindulging and over-promising could be connected to this aspect as well (as could making assumptions in our relationships); as best as you can, bring a non-judgmental awareness to any such tendencies.
Do you have your Ascendant, Career Point (or personal planets) in 21-27 degrees of Pisces, Sagittarius, Gemini or Virgo,? 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 Taurus, Libra or Sagittarius (Venus is the ruler of Taurus and Libra; Jupiter is the ruler of Sagittarius).
Also, on Monday, Pluto’s station phase intensifies until May 2nd. It will come to a halt on April 24th in almost 23 degrees of Capricorn (more on that next week). As I mentioned last week, when an outer planet stations, its energy gets more pronounced; this becomes even more pronounced when its Station phase intensifies.
We become even more aware of its impact on us — and this can sometimes cause discomfort. We are being asked to hang out with that discomfort until the planet’s energy has picked up speed again (around May 8th).
As best as you can, take a closer look at whatever is “in your face” for the next 3 weeks. Look for what might no longer be in alignment with your soul’s purpose (your deep, authentic, emotional Self) — especially in relation to long-term goals and your standing in society.
Ask yourself: Where am I holding on, out of fear? What habits, behaviors or fears are holding me back from feeling fully empowered from within? What would it look like, if I was fully aligned with my Soul-purpose? How would it feel? When we confront our fears, very often we discover…

Two consecutive Moons in the same sign is particularly interesting because of the degree in which they becomes exact — it is usually an exalted degree — and the current Full Moon becomes exact in 29 degrees of Libra. This is an exalted degree because it is the last degree of the sign and it’s therefore the last chance for any transiting celestial body to express itself before changing signs.
This would indicate a strong urge to complete something, most likely something that started with the first Full Moon in 0º of Libra on March 20th — and therefore connected to relationships, a desire for balance and equality (including harmony in our environment and with ourselves).
With any Full Moon, we see things that we have not been aware of before, and we get a chance to make some changes if we don’t like what we see. Ask yourself: What’s been happening to me since March 20th, when it comes to others? What needs adjusting? What needs to simply change?
That said, we discussed the Aries-Libra polarity at length in the first Libra Full Moon video, posted in March (to hear about that polarity, click here) — so let’s focus now on the aspects connected to this month’s Full Moon chart, starting with two Uranus aspects:
First: Uranus, in an early degree of Taurus, and aligns with the Sun, which is in the last degree of Aries, and therefore also opposes the Moon. Uranus symbolizes the desire for…

Do you have your Ascendant (or any personal planets) in 27-29 degrees of Aries, Libra, Capricorn, Cancer or 0-1 degrees of Taurus, Leo, Scorpio, or Aquarius? If so, you may feel the effects of this Full 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).

Truthfulness on the Soul Level — Forecast for April 8th – 14th
This week’s headline items: Pluto starts to slow down (station) on Monday, it’s time to start taking actions on the New Moon Intentions from Wednesday morning on, and on Wednesday afternoon, Jupiter comes to a halt and begins its 4-month Retrograde phase. The first Quarter Moon in Cancer becomes exact on Friday evening, and Saturn starts its Station phase on Sunday.
There will be four Moon VoC phases this week: Monday early morning (for almost 13 hours), Wednesday early afternoon (for 10 hours), Friday evening (for a little over 8 hours) and Sunday late evening (for a little over 8.5 hours).
Before we get to this week’s forecast, I have one quick announcement: Last chance to get the Special Offer, I mentioned last week. Offer ends now on April 10th at midnight! Sign up for next week’s Forecasting Forum, and I will include the “Jupiter Station & Retrograde” webinar for FREE 😉

Now, this week’s Forecast…
Monday, April 8th:
Monday, the Moon remains in steady, peaceful Taurus until 5:15pm 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 today? It’s probably, slowing down and getting in touch with whatever delights our senses 😉
Monday at 4:29am EDT, we enter a Moon Void of Course (VoC), that lasts for almost 13 hours, until 5:15pm EDT. Use this intuitive time to empower each other in regards to earthly issues and mutually support each other in practical ways.
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 until the late afternoon/early evening ahead of time.
Monday morning, we are invited to make some internal adjustments… We may want to enjoy some luxurious pleasures, while feeling at the same time a desire to have an adventure of the mind and soul.
Monday at 5:15pm EDT, the Moon moves into chatty, versatile Gemini, where it will journey until Wednesday late 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 🙂 As best as you can, be patient with yourself and others.
Monday late evening, consider connecting with others, socializing, and taking a compassionate approach toward yourself and others, especially when it comes to personal goals and passions. Ask yourself: what if taking a compassionate approach towards myself and others actually made for more fulfilling connections?
Last but not least, also on Monday, Pluto starts to slow down (station) at 23º Capricorn — preparing to come to a halt on April 24th. This station will last until May 8th. When an outer planet stations, its energy gets more pronounced; we become more aware of its impact on us — and this can sometimes cause discomfort. We are being asked to hang out with that discomfort and observe what comes up.
Pluto is associated with our Soul Purpose. It relates to the process of empowerment — our ability to feel empowered from within, through the experience of wholeness — and to our deepest passions.
It is also associated with transformation, for example our ability to transform darkness into light or “death” into “rebirth”. Those terms don’t necessarily refer to physical death or rebirth, but rather some sort of ending and beginning.
To get to a place of truthfulness on the soul level, Pluto will remove what no longer serves us, replacing it with something new — something fully aligned with our deepest passions and Soul Purpose.
When we resist the deep changes Pluto brings, we tend to…

This week’s headline items: On Monday, Mercury’s station phase ends and the Balsamic Moon phase begins, Jupiter’s Station phase begins Tuesday and intensifies on Saturday, the New Moon in Aries becomes exact Friday early morning.
There will only be two Moon VoC phases this week: Wednesday late morning (for almost 11.5 hours) and Friday late evening (for almost 11 hours).
Before we get to this week’s forecast, I have one quick announcement: There is a Special Offer all week long: If you sign up for the next Forecasting Forumby April 9th, I will include the Jupiter Station & Retrograde webinar for FREE 😉 The next Forum will be live on April 19th and will cover the Pluto & Saturn Station and Retrogradephases in more detail in relationship to our own birth charts.

Now, this week’s Forecast…
Monday, April 1st:
Monday, the Moon remains in freedom-loving, forward-thinking Aquarius and VoCuntil 10:48am EDT; at that time, the Moon moves into creative, sensitive Pisces, where it will journey until Wednesday late 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 — 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.
Monday late morning: the Balsamic Moon phase beings when the Moon reaches 0º of Pisces. This phase lasts until late Friday very early morning when the New Moon in Aries becomes exact (more on that on Friday… In the meantime, 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?
Also, on Monday, Mercury resumes its normal pace through the sky, ending its station in 17 degrees of Pisces. Communication and transportation is now back to “normal”, as are any associated gadgets, vehicles, etc. New ideas and information received during the Mercury retrograde phase (March 5th — 28th) can now be reviewed. What did you discover about your inner dialogue — especially when it comes to your “intuitive” or “divine” self — during that time?

On April 5th, at 4:50am EDT,the Moon aligns with the Sun in 15 degrees of Aries. This marks the beginning of a new Moon cycle; anything brand-new started in the next two weeks has the chance to get off to a great start. Click here to watch my New Moon video on the subject.
The New Moon in fast-paced, enthusiastic, and courageous Aries asks us to connect to our personal goals and get very clear on what we want to create over the next 28 days. This is an action-packed New Moon, with the focus on ourselves; we have a tremendous amount of energy and want to sprint — it’s a “do now, think later” energy.
Aries is the first sign of the zodiac; as such, it represents new beginnings, initiation, breaking new ground, birthing new forms. An Aries New Moon is thus an especially fertile time for seeding new projects and directions.
We generally don’t know what will happen when we start something brand-new — something we have never done before — and this can stir up insecurities and nervousness, sometimes maybe even plain fear, even panic.
Aries and its ruling planet Mars correspond with the quest to develop courage — not fearlessness, but the conscious choice to act in spite of fear — some call this the “Warrior Energy”.
One of the many ways we can demonstrate courage is to….

Do you have your Ascendant (or any personal planets) in 13-17 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, 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 periods that are great times to set intentions: the first is the roughly seventeen hours between 4:50am and 10:15pm, Friday, April 5th; if you aren’t able to set intentions during that time period, wait until the next day — between 9:06am Saturday, April 6th, and 4:50am Sunday, April 7th, a 19.5 – hour period (as always, all times are EDT).
If you live in a timezone other than EDT (US East Coast-time), feel free to join my Facebook Fanpage or follow me on twitter. I will be posting several reminders on Friday, Saturday and Sunday to let you know that it is time to set your intentions 😉
Here’s a few bonus questions: What might emerge if I suspended my opinions, beliefs, judgments and concepts, just for a moment, here and there, now and again? What are some resolutions I could make toward inner healing or wholeness? What would be a good first action step on one of those resolutions? How might accepting my current relationship to my masculine side support me on that journey?

This week’s headline items: Venus changes signs from Aquarius to Pisces on Tuesday afternoon, the last Quarter Moon in Capricorn becomes exact on Wednesday night/Thursday very early morning, later on Thursday morning, Mercury comes to a halt (it’s ending its 3-week Retrograde phase and starting its post-Shadow phase); lastly, Mars changes signs from Taurus to Gemini, very early on Sunday.
There will be three Moon VoC phases this week: Tuesday late evening (for 11.5 hours), Friday evening (for a little over 1.5 hours) and Sunday late evening (for almost 12 hours).

Now, this week’s Forecast…
Monday, March 25th:
Monday, the Moon remains in passionate, all-or-nothing Scorpio and VoCuntil 2:06am EDT; at that time, the Moon moves into optimistic, adventurous, truth-seeking Sagittarius, where it will journey until Wednesday late morning. New experiences and adventures satisfy a deep emotional need. The Sagittarius Moon persuades us to come from intuition and think in a broader manner.
We seek meaning and ideas that expand upon the “here and now”; we pursue truth and a new vision — the big picture, rather than the details. Spontaneity is key, we’d rather improvise than plan; this may tip into just “winging it”. We could also overdo or overstate.
Monday early morning, we experience a need for inner adjustments. We feel uneasy or awkward and need to make a choice.
Making this choice demands we develop inner awareness around two very different urges: on the one hand, the desire to mentally explore and go beyond what we already know — and on the other hand, the need for breakthroughs connected to the physical plane.
Monday morning:we might find ourselves wanting to explore a new healing modality for body, mind, and heart, aimed at a renewing our enthusiasm for life. We are capable of being compassionate and forgiving with ourselves at this time — and a gentle and holistic approach is best.
Monday late morning, we will have lots of energy and…

Now, this week’s Forecast…
Monday, March 18th:
Monday, the Moon remains fun and attention-loving Leo until 9:41pm EDT. 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 early morning, feels a little uneasy. We need to develop an inner awareness around our two seemingly opposite pulls: on the one hand, a strong desire to accomplish; on the other, our need for play and fun.
We are asked to bring awareness to whatever it is we feel most committed to: Are we after laughter and joy? Or building a solid foundation? As best as you can, make adjustments as needed, and drop any self-judgment.
Monday late morning, feels a little uneasy again. We need to develop an inner awareness around our two seemingly opposite pulls: on the one hand, a strong desire to accomplish; on the other, our need for play and fun.
We are asked to bring awareness to whatever it is we feel most passionate about: Are we after laughter and joy? Or intense and authentic emotion? As best as you can, make adjustments as needed, and again, drop any self-judgment.
Monday at 11:19am EDT, we enter a Moon Void of Course (VoC), that lasts for almost 11.5 hours, until 9:41pm EDT. Use this intuitive time to explore any “historically-based” beliefs around life, children and your creative self-expression: What if you took an optimistic approach?
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 the late evening ahead of time.
Monday evening, we are invited to make some internal adjustments. We may want to have some fun, but may also need to tune in to our intuitive inner voice. What might you hear if you got really quiet?
Monday at 9:41pm EDT, the Moon moves into detail-oriented, practical Virgo, where it will journey until Wednesday late evening; 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…

Here is a testimonial from one of the participants after joining our most recent Forum:
“Sonja, you are totally awesome. Thank you for your insightful answer to my monthly forum question and the depth in which you covered it!” — Tatia B.
Sonja’s passion is for connecting with people and helping them transform their lives. This led her to train as a life coach, in addition to her lifelong study of Astrology. 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 March 20th at 9:43pm EDT,the Full Moon becomes exact in 0 degrees of Libra. All Full Moons bring an opportunity for 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, the zero degree aspect, secondly, it is also a SuperMoon (i.e., the Moon is at its closest distance to the Earth). All of this increases emotionality and fosters larger shifts in consciousness.
This particular Full Moon occurs on the day of the Vernal/Spring Equinox, in the midst of the Mercury Retrograde phase in Pisces; it quincunxes Uranus in 0 degrees of Taurus. Meanwhile, Chiron (in almost 2 degrees of Aries) conjuncts the Sun in Aries and opposes the Moon in Libra.
Late in the evening on Wednesday (March 20th), the Moon enters Libra; this starts the energetic build up towards the Full Moon — and only 15 minutes later, the Sun in Aries opposes the Moon in Libra.
The Libra-Aries polarity highlights the spiritual dance between various polarities: individual drives or goals and one-on-one relationships, masculine and feminine, independence and collaboration. Whether we are single or partnered, we are all in relationship to someone — any one-on-one relationship counts here — business, personal, health-related, etc.

Do you have your Ascendant (or any personal planets) in the following: 0-2 degrees of Libra, Aries, Capricorn, Cancer, or 28-29 degrees of Virgo, Pisces, Sagittarius, or Gemini?

I also want to mention again that we will go over the upcomingJupiter Station and Retrograde phases, as well as theSpring/Vernal Equinox, in more detail in the next Forecasting Forum — in fact, we apply what’s coming up to our own birth charts, so if you want to know how they will impact you personally, feel free to join us live!

Soften Your Approach — Forecast for March 11th – 17th
This week’s headline items: On Monday, it’s time to take actions on our New Moon Intentions. The first Quarter Moon in Gemini becomes exact Thursday morning. There will be three Moon VoC phases this week: Tuesday early morning (for a little over 6 hours), Thursday morning (for a little over 9 hours), and Saturday afternoon (for 7 hours).
Before we get to this week’s forecast, I have one quick announcement: On Sunday (March 10th) at 2am, Daylight Savings Time began in the United States; so, from this week on, I will be posting all astrological alignments and movements in EDT. Please adjust accordingly for your location 😉
Now, this week’s Forecast…
Monday, March 11th:
Monday, the Moon remains in steady, peaceful Taurus all day. It will journey here until Tuesday late morning. 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 tomorrow? It’s probably, slowing down and getting in touch with whatever delights our senses 😉
Monday late morning, we have an opportunity to meet our need for material comfort with a gentler, more intuitive approach. Inner and outer beauty is key!
Monday afternoon, Slow down a little and focus on what’s sitting right in front of you that needs to be taken care of, so you can get to the next phase of accomplishment. Rushing will backfire right now.
If you set your New Moon Intentions this past Wednesday, Thursday, or Friday, soon after the New Moon in Pisces became exact; Monday around 7:13pm EDT will be a great time to start taking 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 evening, we get a chance to empower each other around our long-term goals, by keeping things down to earth and enjoyable.
Also, Monday late evening, we are invited to make some internal adjustments…

Here is a testimonial from one of the participants after joining our most recent Forum:
“Sonja, you are totally awesome. Thank you for your insightful answer to my monthly forum question and the depth in which you covered it!” — Tatia B.

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.
This week’s headline items: the Mercury Retrograde phase starts Tuesday; on Wednesday: Uranus changes signs from Aries to Taurus, and the New Moon in Pisces becomes exact; Mercury’s Station phase ends on Saturday; and Daylight Savings time starts in the US, very early Sunday.
There will be three Moon VoC phases this week: Tuesday very early morning (for 6 minutes), Thursday afternoon (for a little over an hour), and Saturday early afternoon (for 15 hours).
Now, this week’s Forecast…
Monday, March 4th:
Monday,the Moon remains in freedom-loving, forward-thinking Aquarius all day. It will journey there until Tuesday 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/early afternoon, is an opportunity to connect with others and explore actively the things that can bring us progress. Ask yourself: Am I open to explore something different? Am I open to seeing something that I haven’t looked at before? Am I open to new adventures?
Also, Mercury is preparing to come to halt, tomorrow, Tuesday (starting its 3-week retrograde phase), slowing things down tremendously from Sunday night until Wednesday night. Pay attention to anything “in your face” during this time, in any of the following areas: communications, short travels, transportation of any kind, communication devices. You will get a chance to re-organize yourself once Mercury goes retrograde.

Pisces is the last sign of the zodiac; it connects us to our spiritual journey, as it represents a reunion with Source/God/the Universe. When 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.
Ask yourself: Am I (in other words, do I exist)? Could I let that be enough, just for right now? Keep repeating these questions until you feel completely relaxed and at peace.
Now, close your eyes, and ask yourself: Am I my body or am I more than that? Am I the sounds that I can hear inside and outside my head, or am I more than that? Am I the sensations that I can feel and receive, or am I more than that? And, if I am more than those things, where do I begin? Where do I end?
Pisces is accepting and aware of its eternal nature. It lovingly allows all, because it knows that there is no real separation between things, that separation only exists in the mind.

Here is a quote that fits really well with this New Moon: “We are the midwives in a world experiencing the labor pains necessary to the birthing of a whole new world consciousness.” — The Arcturian Group
If you have your Ascendant or any personal planets in 14-18 degrees of Pisces, Virgo, Gemini or Sagittarius, 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 (since the Sun rules Leo and the Moon rules Cancer).
The New Moon is also the best time to set some powerful intentions for this month’s Moon cycle; intentions are best done soon after the New Moon becomes exact — and definitely not during a Moon void of course phase.
This month, the best time to set intentions would therefore be between 11:04am March 6th and 2:08pm March 7th. Then again, from 3:27pm on March 7th until 11:04am on March 8th (EST – New York-time).
If you live in a timezone other than EST (US East Coast-time), feel free to join my Facebook Fanpage or follow me on Twitter. I will be posting reminders on Wednesday afternoon, Thursday in the morning and later in the afternoon/evening, and on Friday morning, to let you know that it is time to set your intentions 😉

A Single, Simple Step — Forecast Feb. 25th – March 3rd
This week’s headline items: The last Quarter Moon becomes exact in Sagittarius on Tuesday morning, Mercury starts to slow down (station) on Thursday, Venus changes signs from Capricorn to Aquarius on Friday; there will be three Moon VoC phases this week: Monday morning (for 9 hours), Wednesday night/Thursday very early morning (31 minutes), and Saturday early afternoon (20 minutes).
Before we get to this week’s forecast, I have one quick announcement:

Now, this week’s Forecast…
Monday, Feb. 25th:
Monday, the Moon remains in passionate, all-or-nothing Scorpio. It will journey there until 4:19pm EST. 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 therefore 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 🙂
Manipulation and paranoia are the lower vibrations of this aspect, so as best you can, be straightforward — act in good faith and assume it in others. Best of all, be truly present to the fluctuations of your feelings — no matter if they’re “polite” or “timely”. Feelings aren’t facts, but they are information — and heeding them will help you embrace all of who you are.
Know thyself — and love thyself — you shall be set free. Remember: Love connects us to the Power within; Fear causes “Force” to show up — and that’s ultimately what disempowers us and others.
Monday very early morning, we feel good about making deeper connections; we’ll have an opportunity to become fully committed to a project or task, something that might serve us long-term.
Monday at 7:14am EST, we enter a Moon Void of Course (VoC), that last for 9 hours, until 4:19pm EST. Use this intuitive time as an opportunity to connect with others on an authentic level. What if you let yourself trust others in the mutual pursuit of realistic, practical goals?
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 late afternoon ahead of time.
Monday at 4:19pm EST, the Moon moves into optimistic, adventurous, truth-seeking Sagittarius, where it will journey until Wednesday night/Thursday very early 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, which means we’d rather inspire others to do things our way, than take 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 Moon placement also starts the build-up towards the last Quarter Moon (exact Tuesday morning).
Monday late afternoon/early evening, we might find ourselves wanting to connect with like-minded people, so we can share our…

Now, this week’s Forecast…
Monday (Feb. 18th):
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 and — or at the very least acknowledged — for our greatness… 🙂 So if you can, hand out some compliments, let people in your life know how proud you are of them, tell them how much you love them. Come from the heart with this and all other things: be honest, authentic.
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 day. 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 early morning, an opportune Sun/Uranus aspect becomes exact at 2:55am EST. We started to feel this aspect from last week, Friday evening (Feb. 15th) on; it will remain strong until this Tuesday evening (Feb. 19th). We have the opportunity to become aware of an original or unique approach to life. Flexibility is the key to success at this time; pleasant changes may be in store — certainly unexpected ones 😉
What is your uniqueness? How could you express that proudly and authentically? As best as you can, watch out for messages from the Universe! Remember: an opportunity is not automatically given to us: We have to “realize” it.
Do you have your Ascendant, Career Point (or personal planets) in 27-29 degrees of Aquarius, Aries, Gemini, Sagittarius or 0-1 degree 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 Leo or Aquarius (the Sun rules Leo; Uranus rules Aquarius)
On Monday at 4:10am EST, Chiron re-enters fast-paced, enthusiastic Aries, where it will journey until June 2026 (when it will enter Taurus for a brief time) And then retrograde back into Aries in Sept. 2026 until April 2027. Check to see if you are maybe revisiting themes that came up around late April of last year, when Chiron entered Aries for the first time.
What is the significance of Chiron? It’s considered the bridge between the limitations of the physical and the unlimited nature of the non-physical (or spiritual) world. Often referred to as the “Wounded Healer”, it reminds us of our humanity — and guides us to see it as a gift.
When we take responsibility for our human limitations and move past seeing them as “wrong” or “bad”, our inner gifts and uniqueness can emerge more completely and powerfully. If you are already a Member of my online community, feel free to read the whole article about Chiron in Aries here
Do you have your Ascendant, Career Point (or any personal planets) in Aries, Libra, Capricorn, or Cancer? If so, you will be more affected by this transit over the next 8 years. This is also true for those of us who have our Ascendant or Sun-sign in Aries, since Chiron will move through this sign for the next 8 years.
Monday morning, a Venus/Saturn alignment in almost 17 degrees of Capricorn becomes exact at 5:52am EST. We started to feel this aspect from last week Friday (Feb. 15th) on; it will remain strong until this Wednesday evening (Feb. 20th). This alignment brings a sense of maturity and commitment to our relationships 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 partnerships. 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 personal relationships that have been swept under the carpet — and they will likely surface. Renewed ties to old friends, business partners or lovers are possible, as is a new sense of responsibility in existing relationships. This is not the best time to start a brand-new relationship.
Do you have your Ascendant, Career Point (MC) or personal planets in 14-20 degrees of of Capricorn, Aries, Cancer, or Libra? 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)
And, Monday early evening, at 6:04pm EST, the Sun changes signs from freedom-loving, forward-thinking and objective Aquarius to dreamy, creative, compassionate, Pisces, until March 20th. This brings our awareness to our sense of oneness with everyone and everything around us.
We feel like sponges, able to pick up all energy around us; this also makes us more sensitive and emotional. We are more drawn towards expressing ourselves in a creative or spiritual way.
Music or energy healing gives us vitality and can heighten our own personal vibrations. We need to slow down a little and listen to our intuition more fully — if we ignore our feelings and the subtle messages we are getting, we will most likely feel more anxious and somewhat frustrated. This could also be connected to the slow pace that our body or our surroundings are demanding of us.
The keyword here is “allowing”: as best as you can, be aware of what you are resisting, moment to moment, and create some space — allow it to be as it is. In addition, notice when you are experiencing someone else’s feelings rather than your own. Ask yourself: Is this mine or someone else’s?
All this is especially true if you are a Leo or Pisces Sun-sign or Rising-sign. As a Pisces, you will feel …

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.
The next Full Moon will be “exact” on Feb. 19th at 10:54am EST, in almost 1 degrees of Virgo.
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 (and achieve it) through our interactions with others, so relationships of all kinds are highlighted during Full Moons. Feel free to also watch my video for more
The Moon in Virgo opposes the Sun in Pisces. If you are already familiar with this polarity, feel free to skip ahead to the aspects involved in this Full Moon chart…
Virgo seeks personal wholeness; Pisces reminds us of an even greater 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:

Now, this week’s Forecast…
Monday, Feb. 11th:
Monday, the Moon remains steady, peaceful Taurus all day. It will journey there until Wednesday early morning. 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 next two days? It’s probably, slowing down and getting in touch with whatever delights our senses.
Monday afternoon: we have the ability to comfortably accomplish things that are aligned with our values, coupled with a nice feeling of ease — rushing is not required or expected of us right now. We are also feeling quite grounded in our connections with others and can be quite “real” with them without causing offense.
Monday night/Tuesday very early morning, we have an opportunity to meet our need for material comfort with a gentler, more intuitive approach… if you happen to be awake at that time, of course…

Monday, Feb. 4th:
Monday, the Moon remains in freedom-loving, forward-thinking Aquariusall day. It will journey there until Tuesday late evening. 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.
With the New Moon in freedom-loving, forward-thinking Aquarius, we have our eye on the future. The highest vibration of Aquarius gives us the opportunity to see a clear vision for our life — and we are ready to make huge improvements.
Aquarius also deals with the power of ideals, technology, and inventions. We are interested in the collective focus on changing group consciousness.
At its best, Aquarius stands for equality and diversity, innovation and reform, collaboration and community; we strive for progress. The challenge here is to unite and transcend differences of gender, race, and cultural or religious backgrounds.
To move even further into that higher Aquarian vibration, ask yourself the following questions: Where am I called to make a difference? What could I, as an individual, do for humanity? And how might “group consciousness” help humanity make progress? Where might I begin?
Do you have your Ascendant (or any personal planets) in one of the following placements: 13-18 degrees of Aquarius, Leo, Taurus, or Scorpio? If so, you may feel the effects of this New Moon more strongly.
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 any time between 4:05pm on Feb. 4th until 6:59pm on Feb. 5th; and then again from 9:02pm on Feb. 5th until 4:05pm on Feb. 6th — New York Time/US Eastern Time

I will post reminders, several times, to let you know when it is time to set your New Moon intentions 😉 For more info about Setting Intentions, click here

"What I loved about the Monthly Forecasting Forum is Sonja's soulful approach to astrology, keeping it in the positive, learning and growing for our higher good. It's not fear based astrology which I have come to see too much of. Sonja is extremely patient and kind, and a true teacher. I look forward to learning and growing with this beautiful soul."
"Thank you for the awesome webinar, Sonja. I really enjoyed the full interactive experience. Having this real time exchange makes a huge difference to the learning and understanding of all these patterns and energies. I love the question and answer section, especially since we get some advance indication of what the topics will be. I have been an amateur astrologer for many years but I learned an awful lot very quickly in this setting. So much fun. See you next time!"
