Now, this week’s Forecast…

 

Monday, April 29th

Monday, the Moon remains in ambitious, pragmatic, status-oriented Capricorn all day. It will journey there until Tuesday late morning. We tend to be more realistic, serious, and cautious; this can support practical endeavors and financial matters.

Our ambition surges and brings a need for structure and planning; when you add the pragmatism this Moon placement supports, you can see how this could be a very productive time for business and long-term goals. Our reputation will become crucial.

As best as you can during this aspect, avoid “should-ing” on yourself. Take the pressure off, perhaps by saying, “I am doing the best I can, and that’s all I can ever do”

Monday at 7:31am EDT, Venus changes signs from independent, fast-paced Aries to sensual, steady Taurus, where she will journey until May 23rd.

For the next 3.5 weeks, we love receiving physical pleasures and comforts. Our relationships are centered around delicious foods, wine, and sensuality.

“Simple and natural” is key. Our financial issues and dealings are being carefully and lovingly considered, we are not easily persuaded to take risks, we’d rather spend our money on a massage or a good meal.

Do you have your Ascendant or Sun-sign in Taurus or Libra? If so, you will feel even more attracted to physical pleasures and comfort for the next 3.5 weeks. Your heart will want loyalty and consistency. Connecting to nature or anything simple and organic is going to feel especially comforting. 

Monday late morning/early afternoon, we have an opportunity to focus on what’s subtle & essential and bring a sense of flow to our long-term goals or plans.

We are invited to practice a gentler, more intuitive approach, to go within, get in touch with our inner divinity, and bring peace and inner knowingness to our long-term commitments.

Ask yourself: Could I trust my inner knowing (or intuition) 5% more than I have previously? What spiritual practices could support me on this journey inward?

What resonates with my inner core? What is realistic and practical? What practices are sustainable for the long haul? What am I being asked to give up, so I can have a stronger connection to my inner guidance?(Moon in Capricorn sextiles Saturn in Pisces, exact at 11:28am EDT)

Monday evening, we are invited to make adjustments and find creative solutions to seemingly insoluble situations.

As best as you can, make space for looking into some alternative exercise programs or holistic approaches to your personal projects and current long-term commitments. Compassion is key! (Moon in Capricorn squares Chiron in Aries, exact at 6:49pm EDT)

Monday late evening, we are invited to connect with like-minded people and learn something new about our unique talents or value to the world. We are better able to connect to anything that involves a long-term commitment.

We perhaps might also implement revolutionary business practices or government programs that support our values and make life tangibly more enjoyable. (Moon in Capricorn trines Uranus in Taurus, exact at 9:49pm EDT)

Now, this week’s Forecast…

 

Monday, April 22nd:

Monday, the Moon remains in harmony-loving, balance-seeking Libra all day. It will journey there until Tuesday late morning. The energy of the Libra Moon helps us be naturally courteous and diplomatic; we are more polite at this time as we seek the approval of others.

Monday morning, we may need to balance wanting harmony with others against wanting to be direct and share ourselves without apologies. (Moon in Libra opposes Mercury in Aries, exact at 8:10am EDT)

Monday afternoon, we become more aware that we need to find a balance between two very different energies — on the one hand, taking a compassionate approach towards our personal goals while being assertive in the world — and on the other hand, our need to connect and collaborate with others.

Ask yourself: What if taking a compassionate approach towards myself actually made for more fulfilling connections with others?(Moon in Libra opposes Chiron in Aries, exact at 3:54pm EDT)

Monday evening calls for some inner adjustments, as we feel uneasy or awkward and must make a choice.

Making this choice demands we develop inner awareness around two very different urges: on the one hand, we want to innovate when it comes to what we value (ourselves included) — and maybe also have some financial breakthroughs; on the other hand, we feel the need to attend to our one-on-one relationships, supporting them — and perhaps collaborating. (Moon in Libra quincunxes Uranus in Taurus, exact at 7:18pm EDT)

Monday, 7:24pm EDT, we enter a Moon VoC that will last for almost 16 hours until 11:20am EDT (Tuesday late morning). Use this intuitive time to reexamine your various one-on-one relationships — ask yourself: How can I balance my need for connection and harmony with my desire for self-fulfillment and independence?

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.

Soon after the Moon VoC begins, we need to make some more inner adjustments. We feel uneasy or awkward and need to make a choice, one that demands we develop inner awareness around two very different urges…

On the one hand, the urge to expand our perspective when it comes to material possibilities and beliefs about our talents & our own value in the world — and on the other hand, we feel the need to attend to our one-on-one relationships.

The key here is to have a balanced approach and allow for experimentation so we don’t drive ourselves or others crazy.(Moon in Libra quincunxes Jupiter in Taurus, exact at 7:58pm EDT)

Monday late evening, we are invited to make some more internal adjustments. We may want to connect with others, but may also need to become aware of our intuitive, more creative side. What do you feel/sense when you get really quiet? What actions are calling to you? (Moon in Libra quincunxes Mars in Piscesexact at 11:51pm EDT)

Full Moon in Scorpio — the article

On April 23rd, at 7:49pm EDTthe Moon opposes the Sun in 4 degrees of Scorpio. The entrance of the Moon into Scorpio earlier that same day begins the energetic build-up towards this powerful Full Moon.

The Moon, in passionate, all-or-nothing Scorpio, opposes the Sun in steady, peaceful Taurus. This offers an opportunity for a deeper, more authentic connection with ourselves and others.

Eclipse Season ended on April 18th. We have now received our consciousness upgrades! Tune in for a moment: Do you feel any differently now than you did before March 15th?

Another thing to consider: on Oct. 28th, 2023, we had a Lunar Eclipse in 5 degrees of Taurus-Scorpio. Since this Full Moon is in a similar degree, check to see what has been coming up since then when it comes to facing your fears and valuing yourself and your authentic relationships with others.

Ask yourself: What inauthentic (or even toxic) relationships must I still release or transform to step into greater abundance and happiness? What fears must likewise be released or transformed?

This Full Moon will most likely stimulate our emotional body and increase our awareness of unconscious patterns and fears. We may feel more easily triggered as buried emotions, motivations, and fears surface. Please be aware of projections and jumping to conclusions.

If you are unsure whether you are projecting something on someone else, check for defensiveness, over-reactivity, or difficulty being objective while exhibiting rigid behaviors.

If you’d like to learn more, and as a Member of my online community, click here to watch my Members Full Moon video.

There are several aspects worth mentioning in this Full Moon chart:

  • Pluto (the ruler of Scorpio) is currently in Aquarius — and highly exalted — squares the Full Moon polarity in ScorpioTaurus
  • Mars (the co-ruler of Scorpio), currently in Pisces, aligns with Neptune and sextiles the Jupiter-Uranus alignment in Taurus
  • Venus (the ruler of Taurus), currently in Aries, aligns with Chiron, and a highly exalted Mercury
  • A highly exalted Mercury in Aries aligns with the North Node and comes to a halt less than two days after the Full Moon becomes exact (on April 25th) — ending its 3-week Retrograde phase.
  • Last but not least, Saturn in Pisces semi-sextiles the Mercury-North Node alignment in Aries and semi-squares Pluto in Aquarius

We will cover all of that in a moment, but first…

For the next two weeks, 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 Full Moon brings greater awareness to what was unconscious or hidden previously. This particular one invites us to let go of fears or disempowering behaviors.

So, here’s this Full Moon’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 that serve as obstacles on the path to progress? Or perhaps some rigid thought processes?

Let’s take a closer look at the two signs involved in this Full Moon polarity…

Do you have your Ascendant, Career Point (or personal planets) in 2-6 degrees of Scorpio, Taurus, Leo, or Aquarius? If so, you are more affected by this month’s powerful Full Moon/Lunar Eclipse; the same is true for those of us who have our Ascendant or Sun-sign in Leo or Cancer (the Sun rules Leo; the Moon rules Cancer). 

Again, Jupiter and Uranus only meet every 14 years. Their cycles correspond with beliefs in the ability to make progress in a particular area of life — sometimes leading to social upheaval. We may also see upheaval in the natural world, for example with floods, severe storms, tornados, and earthquakes. It’s all about “shaking things up” in general.

What Needs to Be Reevaluated? 

 

This week’s headline items: the first Quarter Moon in Cancer becomes exact on Monday afternoon; Mercury starts to slow down (station) again on Tuesday (preparing to end its 3-week Retrograde phase); on Thursday, Pluto starts to slow down as well – preparing for its yearly Retrograde phase — and “Eclipse Season” comes to an end. The Sun changes signs from Aries to Taurus late on Friday morning; finally, a powerful Jupiter-Uranus alignment in Taurus becomes exact late on Saturday evening.

 

There will be three Moon Void of Course (VoC) phases this week: Monday evening (for 3 hours), Thursday morning (for a little over 2 hours), and Saturday evening (for almost 3 hours).

 

Before we get to this week’s Forecast, join us…

On Friday, April 19th at 8am EDT for another episode of Hot Astrology Friday! on the Soulivity Today Morning Show.

I will have an interesting chat with the lovely Brian Westley Johnson about the upcoming Jupiter-Uranus conjunction in Taurus! **If you live in California, you can listen in via KMET Radio at 8am PT.

***Also, there are some Membership changes that went into effect on Jan. 24th with some NEW Membership features and some minor price changes ==> You can watch a brief video OR read about those changes here

 

Now, this week’s Forecast…

 

Monday, April 15th:

Monday, the Moon remains in protective, nurturing Cancer until 10:24pm EDT. With this Moon placement, we are more sensitive to what people say, and our feelings are thus more easily hurt — so be kind to yourself and others. Self-care is key!

Monday late morning, a Mercury/Chiron alignment in 20 degrees of Aries becomes exact at 11:23am EDT. We started to feel this aspect build from Thursday evening (April. 11th) on; it will remain strong until Saturday morning (April 20th). Due to Mercury’s Retrograde phase we are experiencing this aspect for the second time within the last month.

Think back to March 20th, and ask yourself: What did I discover about my human identity at that time? How did I engage with my physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual well-being?

Did I experience any triggers? What was I able to communicate about myself and my sensitivities? Was there anything I was not able to share?

This alignment allows us to communicate our flaws, insecurities, and sensitivities and thereby begin to heal them.

Bringing compassion to our past wounds and current sensitivities feels soothing, empowering, and healing; doing the same for others is going to feel really good. Remember: what you can do for yourself, you can do for others more easily, and vice versa.

As best as you can, whatever you do or don’t communicate, cut yourself a little slack. Be open to bringing love and understanding to your communications — especially when you are feeling triggered.

Remember: Our past wounding (and ancestral wounding) makes us more sensitive to certain things, and that is why we get triggered

Being human means being “imperfect”; there is no shame in that. Our so-called imperfections open hearts and create and spread compassion, which is precisely what heals everyone’s wounding and sensitivities, including our own.

Ask yourself: Could I give myself 5% more permission to be “imperfect”? Could I acknowledge my sensitivities that stem from past wounding? Could I love myself because of those so-called imperfections and sensitivities?

Double-check: Does blaming or judging myself for being “imperfect” or “overly sensitive” actually serve me? How about when I do that to others? Who is served when I do this?

Could I be open to the possibility that my “imperfections” and sensitivities — whether physical, mental, emotional, or spiritual — exist to serve not only my personal evolution but also that of humanity? If that were true, what else would need re-evaluating?

Do you have your Ascendant, Career Point (or personal planets) in 18-22 degrees of Aries, Libra, Cancer, or Capricorn? 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 Virgo or Gemini (since Mercury is the ruler of Gemini and Virgo).

Monday afternoon at 3:13pm EDT, the first Quarter Moon in 26 degrees of Cancer becomes exact. We started to feel this aspect when the Moon entered Cancer on Saturday afternoon (April 13th). The Moon in protective, introverted Cancer makes a challenging aspect to the Sun in bold, fast-paced Aries.

Last week, on April 8th, saw a powerful New Moon/Solar Eclipse in Aries. If we set some intentions on April 10th, 11th, or 12th, we are now ready to make some adjustments.

This is a time to stretch and grow — and create some forward momentum — in fact, we may feel compelled to act, stirring up anxiety or overwhelm, so just go one breath at a time.

Remember, we’re still in Eclipse Season until April 18th and thus don’t have all the information we need to move brand-new projects forward yet. Allow for changes, remain flexible and adaptable, and find creative solutions in day-to-day interactions with others.

Allow also for new downloads and for the release of “old” codes and conditioning. Simply put: an open mind and heart will serve us best (that’s true in general, but especially true until Eclipse season ends.

Another thing to remember: if something is beginning or ending in a way that seems organic… allow it to be. As best as you can, observe your feelings and stay grounded in the “here and now”. Connect to your intuition and inner wisdom; they will help carry you through this period. We are receiving a consciousness upgrade — that’s a good thing!

Do you have your Ascendant, Career Point (or personal planets) in 24-28 degrees of Cancer, Aries, Capricorn, or Libra? If so, you will feel the effects of this first Quarter Moon more strongly than otherwise. 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 evening at 7:22pm EDT, we enter a Moon VoC that will last for 3 hours until 10:24pm EDT. Use this intuitive time to be in a state of “flow” and emotional connection to others; spiritual and creative endeavors are favored at this time.

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 10:24pm EDT., the Moon moves into fun and attention-loving Leo, where it will journey until Thursday 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, 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 next two-and-a-half 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?

Reorganizing Consciousness To a Higher Level 

 

This week’s headline items: A New Moon/Solar Eclipse in Aries becomes exact on Monday afternoon; we can start setting our Solar Eclipse Intentions on Wednesday afternoon; finally, Saturn and Mars align in Pisces on Wednesday afternoon.

 

There will be three Moon Void of Course (VoC) phases this week: Monday late evening (for almost 9 hours), Thursday morning (for almost 3 hours), and Saturday late morning (for 3 hours).

Now, this week’s Forecast…

 

Monday, April 8th:

Monday, the Moon remains in pioneering, fast-paced Aries all day. It will journey there until Tuesday morning. Life is an adventure; we’re more open to new ideas and have great enthusiasm for new projects.

Patience is certainly not our strong suit at this time, but we can decide quickly and act immediately.

Monday at 2:21pm EDT, a powerful New Moon/Solar Eclipse becomes exact at 19.5º of Aries. This launches a new Moon and Eclipse cycle.

As we remain in Eclipse Season until April 18th, the coming weeks could offer some tailwinds that carry us to significant breakthroughs; we are invited to learn how to be conscious creators, mindful of how our thinking and choices affect our personal and collective experiences.

As best you can, trust that whatever is leaving is making space for something better — the more willing we are to change, the easier it will be.

Stay grounded and flexible — and don’t jump the gun for the next 2-3 weeks — if you feel compelled to do something, do your best to observe the urge — unless it is connected to something that happens organically — if you are ambivalent about taking an action, better hold off until Eclipse Season ends on April 18th.

Solar Eclipses are extra-powerful New Moons that occur approximately every six months. This Eclipse cycle will be in effect until March 2025; this is the first Solar Eclipse of this year and the second in Aries in this Eclipse cycle. ==> You may also want to watch my Solar Eclipse video.

The first Solar Eclipse in Aries (connected to the current Eclipse cycle) occurred on April 20th, 2023. What have you discovered about your physical vitality and self-identity since then? Where are you asked to get out of your comfort zone? Has this been a humbling experience so far?

During a Solar Eclipse, the Moon momentarily interrupts the normal flow of Solar Radiation, reorganizing our consciousness to a higher level. Solar Eclipses indicate the beginning of a new experience, project, or cycle.

This Eclipse is a Total Solar Eclipse and a SuperMoon!

This will be the third of three Super New Moons in a row, and as some of you already know, SuperMoons occur when the Moon is at its closest distance to the Earth (at the time of a New Moon or Full Moon) and are more powerful. This means greater awareness of the issues connected to the particular New Moon energy.

Total Solar Eclipses happen when the Moon passes between the Sun and Earth. The Moon will completely cover the Sun.

This Total Eclipse will be visible in North America, passing over Mexico, the United States, and Canada. It will begin over the South Pacific Ocean. The first location in continental North America that will experience totality is Mexico’s Pacific coast.

No matter where you are on the planet, however, the effects of the Eclipse will be transformative globally. Solar Eclipses, in particular, often correspond to significant endings and beginnings.

They occur close to the same degree every 19 years, and the last time we had a New Moon/Solar Eclipse in this particular degree and sign — while the North Node was traveling through Aries — was on April 8th, 2005.

We will likely experience a resonance between now and that time — “resonance”, not repetition — so think back to the Spring of 2005 and ask yourself: Were there any significant 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?

For more guidance on those questions, it is best to take a look at our Natal Charts — the House placement of the Eclipse will indicate which area of life is the readiest to embrace a healthy sense of Self and rise to a new level of consciousness around independence and forging our path, gently and holistically.

Feel free to watch my webinar “Eclipse Season & the Mercury Retrograde” to see how the Eclipses impact your birth chart. You can get this 95-minute webinar here.

Star Members of my online community: check your inbox or junk folder for the email you received on March 22nd.

Solar Eclipses are an excellent time to go within, to seed anything we would like to integrate and understand better about ourselves over the next six months until the next Solar Eclipse (Oct. 2nd, 2024) — we’ll dig into this in more detail towards the end of this article when we talk about setting Solar Eclipse Intentions.

Setting Intentions for Solar Eclipses differs from a regular New Moon! So stay tuned!

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 available to us during those times.

North Node Eclipses help us move towards…To read the whole article and get all the Coaching Questions for this powerful New Moon and the whole Eclipse cycle, click here.

Since 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 19º24 of Aries:

Do you have your Ascendant, Career Point (or personal planets) in 14-25 degrees of Aries, Libra, Cancer, or Capricorn? 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. This is because we are downloading new templates at the time of an Eclipse, and the energies are pretty intense, so we want to wait until it all settles down a little before setting our intentions — that said, it’s best to avoid setting 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 2:21pm on Wednesday, April 10th, and 6:04am on Thursday, April 11th. Then again, from 8:59am on April 11th until 2:21pm on Friday, April 12th. Note that all times above are given in US Eastern Time — i.e., the New York time zone.pastedGraphic.png

Set powerful intentions — remember, they cover the next six months — and if possible, align them with the Aries energy!

If you live in a timezone other than EDT and converting time zones isn’t your thing, I suggest joining my Facebook page and following me on X (Twitter), as I post reminders on those platforms when it’s time to set your intentions.

If you want more details on setting Intentions, please click here.

Monday afternoon, a Sun/Chiron alignment in 19.5 degrees of Aries becomes exact at 2:28pm EDT. We started to feel this aspect build from Friday morning (April 5th) on; it will remain strong until Thursday evening (April 11th). This gives us an opportunity to heal insecurities or shame through conscious awareness.

Becoming aware of old wounds or limitations is the first step toward healing them. Bringing compassion, self-acceptance, and love to them is the second. Together, steps one and two make for a beautiful healing experience. Feel free to also read my article on Chiron in Aries.

It will help to stay grounded — connected to the Earth and your body. If waves of anger or frustration come up, let them, and simply observe the waves.

Ask yourself: Am I the “wave” or am I more than that? As best as you can, allow all “waves” to wash ashore, and allow yourself to rest as the vastness that you are (just like the ocean is to the waves).

For those of you who want to have a better understanding of your own personal healing journey at this time, feel free to get my most recent talk, “Healing the Wounded Masculine: Chiron in Aries — a Holistic Approach to How we Show Up in the World”.

I recorded this in-depth exploration of Chiron in Aries for an Astrology Conference in Dec. 2022 (BDTB6) — now available on my website at a discounted price: click here to learn more.

Do you have your Ascendant, Career Point (or personal planets) in 16-23 degrees of Aries, Libra, Cancer, or Capricorn? If so, you will be more aware of this alignment. This is also true for those of us who have our Ascendant or Sun-sign in Leo (the Sun rules Leo).

Monday at 10:39pm EDT, we enter a Moon VoC that will last for almost 9 hours until 7:23am EDT (Tuesday morning). If you are awake during this intuitive time, use it to actively connect with others and share yourself.

What if you got in touch with your passion for life just for these 9 hours? What if you could inspire others just by sharing something you feel passionate about?

That said, Mercury is still in its Retrograde phase, so you may want to reflect first before taking action.

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 morning ahead of time.

April 1st – 7th

What Needs My Forgiveness or Compassion? 

 

This week’s headline items: Mercury comes to a halt on Monday evening, starting its 3-week Retrograde phase; the last Quarter Moon becomes exact late Monday evening; Venus changes signs from Pisces to Aries very early Friday; the Balsamic Moon phase begins later on Friday morning; on Saturday, Mercury ends its Station phase — remaining in Retrograde motion — and Sunday is the last day before the Solar Eclipse becomes exact!

 

There will be three Moon Void of Course (VoC) phases this week: Tuesday night/Wednesday very early morning (for 3.5 hours), Thursday night/Friday very early morning (for 5.5 hours), and Sunday early morning (for 3 hours).

 

Before we get to this week’s Forecast, I invite you to take a quick look at this:

Would you like to know more about Eclipse Season and what to expect until April 18th? How about the first full Mercury Retrograde phase in Aries — which begins on April 1st and lasts until April 25th?

Now, this week’s Forecast…

 

Monday, April 1st:

Monday, the Moon remains in ambitious, pragmatic, status-oriented Capricorn all day. It will journey there until Wednesday morning. We tend to be more realistic, serious, and cautious; this can support practical endeavors and financial matters.

Our ambition surges and brings a need for structure and planning; when you add the pragmatism this Moon placement supports, you can see how this could be a very productive time for business and long-term goals. Our reputation will become crucial.

As best as you can during this aspect, avoid “should-ing” on yourself. Take the pressure off, perhaps by saying, “I am doing the best I can, and that’s all I can ever do”

Monday evening at 6:14pm EDT, Mercury comes to a halt at 27º of Aries to start its first full Retrograde phase of the year, slowing things down tremendously until April 3rd!

Give yourself extra time to go to work or to get things done. If you are traveling today, just simply go with the flow… you’ll get there… eventually. The same is true when it comes to all our technological devices…

With Mercury being Retrograde, its energy feels stronger inside of us, helping us recognize what is out of alignment and pointing to how we can begin realigning ourselves with the outside world, starting from within.

We can ask ourselves: Where do I need to walk my own path? Where does that path seem to be heading? How is my relationship with myself going? How does all this relate to my personal goals? What needs to be reorganized? Reconsidered?

Between now and April 25th, we have an opportunity to re-evaluate ourselves and how we show up in the world, connect to an inner source of courage, and get clear about our passions and goals.

This is also a chance to readdress anything from the past that felt out of alignment — with ourselves and what we desire — and is now ready to be cleared or changed.

Take time to investigate your own thought processes: What feels too busy to me? What if I got really clear about that? If I were 5% more honest with myself about my desires and what excites me, what truths would I uncover?

For the next 3 weeks, we get a chance to connect with our inner dialog, connecting from within to see where we need to be more aware of what we are thinking and communicating. Watch out for being too impulsive or aggressive.

This Retrograde phase will end on April 25th (reaching 16º01’ of Aries at that time). People worry about Mercury retrogrades, but it’s important not to stop one’s life during these times.

As mentioned above, certain things may take longer — but a retrograde gives us a chance to resolve things that have been keeping us from being in alignment with the outer world — especially things that came up since March 18th (when Mercury entered its pre-Shadow phase).

We are ready to reconsider, reinvestigate, or recommunicate connections, thoughts, or conversations initiated since March 18th. Ask yourself: What has come up in my life around new beginnings, things I feel passionate about, and walking my path?

What still needs my attention or reconsideration? Am I still aligned with what I initiated? Where do I need to get further out of my comfort zone?

We may also get to reorganize any data accumulated over the last three months since the last Mercury Retrograde phase (that ended on Jan. 1st, 2024). It’s time to rethink, retool, and release what is no longer in alignment.

During a Mercury Retrograde phase, read the small print, re-read a contract before signing (if you have to sign something), or ask another person for a second opinion…

During these periods, it’s best to be aware of any details we might have overlooked, check in with our intuition, and stay open to renegotiation or adjustments down the line!

In general, Mercury Retrograde is an excellent time for re-evaluating and re-organizing. This is especially true for our thought patterns and decisions (particularly those made in the 2 weeks before the start of the retrograde) — but it’s true of our lives in general: we can reach a more precise understanding as to what works and what doesn’t, and what needs to change.

Reconnecting with “old” friends, clients, neighbors, entrepreneurs, colleagues, and family members (especially siblings) is also favored at this time …

Mercury also represents our day-to-day mind; this is also experienced more internally at this time. When it comes to communication, make sure that what you say, write and hear is the same as the intended meaning — and use the spell-checker

Another thing to take into consideration: how does each Mercury retrograde phase affect your personal birth chart? Do you have any personal planets that Mercury will align with during its retrograde journey? The houses of your chart each represent different areas of your life — which of the houses in your chart is affected by this retrograde?

If you are familiar with your natal chart — take a look at your natal Mercury and where Aries lands in your chart to see how this might play out for you.

If you prefer that Lia or myself take a look at this for you, feel free to book a 25-minute Reading with Lia or a 25-minute Soul Purpose Reading with me. We also covered this Mercury Retrograde phase in our webinar: “Eclipse Season & Mercury Retrograde” ==> feel free to get this 90-minute webinar here

As with any retrograde, some of us will be more affected than others, depending on how it interacts with our personal chart.

If you have your Ascendant, Career Point, or any personal planets in 14-29 degrees of Aries, Libra, Cancer, or Capricorn, you will be more affected by this particular Retrograde phase. This is also true for those of us who have a Gemini or Virgo Sun- or Rising-sign (Mercury rules Gemini and Virgo).

Monday late evening at 11:15pm EDT, the last Quarter Moon in almost 13º of Capricorn becomes exact. We started to feel this aspect build from the moment the Moon entered Capricorn on Sunday night. The Moon in practical, accomplishment-oriented Capricorn makes a challenging aspect to the Sun in pioneering, fast-paced Aries.

This may bring up some challenges. However, it also energizes us to look at what needs to be completed — and what needs to be changed.

This Moon phase brings us closer to the next New Moon in Aries, which is also a Solar Eclipse (on April 8th). With this last Quarter Moon, rather than starting major new projects, it serves us to take a look at what was started around the time of the last Eclipse cycle — in this case, around Oct. 14th, 2023.

We now have about a week to wrap those projects up. What — if anything — needs last-minute adjustments? What have you discovered since Oct. 14th? What did it mean for you?

As best as you can, find creative solutions for anything that comes up between yourself and others — and for any internal conflicts.

Do you have your Ascendant, Career Point (or personal planets) in 11-15 degrees of Capricorn, Aries, Libra, or Cancer? If so, you are more affected by this month’s last Quarter Moon. 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.

Solar Eclipse in Aries — the article

On April 8th at 2:21pm EDT,  a powerful New Moon/Solar Eclipse becomes exact in 19.5º of Aries. This launches a new Moon and Eclipse cycle.

As we remain in Eclipse Season until April 18th, the coming weeks could offer some tailwinds that carry us to significant breakthroughs; we are invited to learn how to be conscious creators, mindful of how our thinking and choices affect our personal and collective experiences.

As best you can, trust that whatever is leaving is making space for something better — the more willing we are to change, the easier it will be.

Stay grounded and flexible — and don’t jump the gun for the next 2-3 weeks — if you feel compelled to do something, do your best to observe the urge — unless it is connected to something that happens organically — if you are ambivalent about taking an action, better hold off until Eclipse Season ends on April 18th.

Solar Eclipses are extra-powerful New Moons that occur approximately every six months. This Eclipse cycle will be in effect until March 2025; this is the first Solar Eclipse of this year and the second in Aries in this Eclipse cycle. You may also want to watch my Solar Eclipse video.

The first Solar Eclipse in Aries (connected to the current Eclipse cycle) occurred on April 20th, 2023. What have you discovered about your physical vitality and self-identity since then? Where are you asked to get out of your comfort zone? Has this been a humbling experience so far?

During a Solar Eclipse, the Moon momentarily interrupts the normal flow of Solar Radiation, reorganizing our consciousness to a higher level. Solar Eclipses indicate the beginning of a new experience, project, or cycle.

This Eclipse is a Total Solar Eclipse and a SuperMoon!

This will be the third of three Super New Moons in a row, and as some of you already know, SuperMoons occur when the Moon is at its closest distance to the Earth (at the time of a New Moon or Full Moon) and are more powerful. This means greater awareness of the issues connected to the particular New Moon energy.

Total Solar Eclipses happen when the Moon passes between the Sun and Earth. The Moon will completely cover the Sun.

This Total Eclipse will be visible in North America, passing over Mexico, the United States, and Canada. It will begin over the South Pacific Ocean. The first location in continental North America that will experience totality is Mexico’s Pacific coast.

The path of the Eclipse continues from Mexico, entering the United States in Texas, and traveling through Oklahoma, Arkansas, Missouri, Illinois, Kentucky, Indiana, Ohio, Pennsylvania, New York, Vermont, New Hampshire, and Maine. Small parts of Tennessee and Michigan will also experience the Total Solar Eclipse.

The Eclipse will enter Canada in Southern Ontario and continue through Quebec, New Brunswick, Prince Edward Island, and Cape Breton. It will exit continental North America on the Atlantic coast of Newfoundland, Canada.

No matter where you are on the planet, however, the effects of the Eclipse will be transformative globally. Solar Eclipses, in particular, often correspond to significant endings and beginnings.

They occur close to the same degree every 19 years, and the last time we had a New Moon/Solar Eclipse in this particular degree and sign — while the North Node was traveling through Aries — was on April 8th, 2005.

We will likely experience a resonance between now and that time — “resonance”, not repetition — so think back to the Spring of 2005 and ask yourself: Were there any significant 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?

For more guidance on those questions, it is best to take a look at our Natal Charts — the House placement of the Eclipse will indicate which area of life is the readiest to embrace a healthy sense of Self and rise to a new level of consciousness around independence and forging our path, gently and holistically.

Feel free to watch my webinar “Eclipse Season & the Mercury Retrograde” to see how the Eclipses impact your birth chart. You can get this 95-minute webinar here.

Star Members of my online community: check your inbox or junk folder for the email you received on March 22nd.

Eclipses are a time for clarifying and affirming our highest path. We are bound to experience a release and recalibration of some sort because old programs will get deleted and new ones downloaded– and for this Eclipse, this is especially true in connection with our relationship to our human identity and our sense of agency in the world — in other words, how capable we feel to get things done.

This begins with our role in our interactions with others, whether we can be direct about our personal goals and passions and inspire others to follow our example.

Solar Eclipses are an excellent time to go within, to seed anything we would like to integrate and understand better about ourselves over the next six months until the next Solar Eclipse (Oct. 2nd, 2024) — we’ll dig into this in more detail towards the end of this video/article when we talk about setting Solar Eclipse Intentions.

Setting Intentions for Solar Eclipses differs from a regular New Moon! So stay tuned!

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 available to us during those times.

North Node Eclipses help us move towards…

Since 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 19º24 of Aries:

Do you have your Ascendant, Career Point (or personal planets) in 14-25 degrees of Aries, Libra, Cancer, or Capricorn? 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. This is because we are downloading new templates at the time of an Eclipse, and the energies are pretty intense, so we want to wait until it all settles down a little before setting our intentions — that said, it’s best to avoid setting 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 2:21pm on Wednesday, April 10th, and 6:04am on Thursday, April 11th. Then again, from 8:59am on April 11th until 2:21pm on Friday, April 12th. Note that all times above are given in US Eastern Time — i.e., the New York time zone.pastedGraphic.png

Set powerful intentions — remember, they cover the next six months — and if possible, align them with the Aries energy!

If you live in a timezone other than EDT and converting time zones isn’t your thing, I suggest joining my Facebook page and following me on X (Twitter), as I post reminders on those platforms when it’s time to set your intentions.

March 25th – 31st

What Will You choose? 

 

This week’s headline items: a powerful Full Moon/Lunar Eclipse in Libra becomes exact on Monday very early morning, and on Thursday, Mercury starts to slow down (station) — preparing for its Retrograde phase in Aries.

Please note: Daylight Savings Time begins in the U.K. and Europe very early on Sunday.

There will be three Moon Void of Course (VoC) phases this week: Tuesday evening (for almost 10 hours), Friday late morning (for a little over 4 hours), and Sunday evening (for 4 hours).

Now, this week’s Forecast…

 

Monday, March 25th:

Monday, the Moon remains in harmony-loving, balance-seeking Libra all day. It will journey there until Wednesday early morning. The energy of the Libra Moon helps us be naturally courteous and diplomatic; we are more polite at this time as we seek the approval of others.

Monday very early morning, at 3am EDT, the Moon in 5 degrees Libra opposes the Sun in Aries. This powerful Full Moon is a Penumbral Lunar Eclipse (the most subtle kind of Lunar Eclipses). 

It can be viewed in parts of Antarctica, the western half of Africa, western Europe, the Atlantic Ocean, North and South America, the Pacific Ocean, Japan, and the eastern half of Australia.

It lasts for approximately 4 hours and 40 minutes, so we can expect to sense the influence of this Lunar Eclipse for four months and twenty days. Our physical and emotional bodies strongly feel the intensity of it all, so keep in mind that 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. This means we may feel more easily triggered as buried emotions, motivations, and fears surface. Beware of projections and jumping to conclusions.

This particular Lunar Eclipse is the first of two Eclipses within two weeks; it offers an opportunity for a more balanced connection to life and others.

If you are unsure whether you are projecting something on someone else, check for defensiveness, overreactivity, or difficulty being objective while exhibiting rigid behaviors.

==> If you are already a Member of my online community, feel free to also watch my Full Moon-Lunar Eclipse video here

Eclipse Season started on March 15th and lasts until April 18th (that’s 10 days after the Solar Eclipse in Aries that follows this Lunar Eclipse).

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?

Eclipses are always powerfully connected to the Moon Nodes and thus to our Soul’s Journey (collectively and individually).

This is the first South Node Lunar Eclipse in Libra since the Moon Nodes shifted into the Aries-Libra polarity in July of last year — highlighting issues around relationship dynamics (“me” vs. “we”) and assertion vs. collaboration.

The Moon Nodes usually remain in any particular polarity for 18 months. They return to the same polarity every 18-19 years.

All Eclipses transmit new energetic codes and transformative downloads symbolized by the signs involved.

The North Node in Aries emphasizes the necessity of a healthy connection with oneself — with our passions, personal goals, active pursuits, and our current independent path.

The South Node in Libra extends an invitation to create a more balanced connection between ourselves, others, and life — and to take a closer look at any dependency issues with others.

There was a Full Moon in 5º of Libra in March of 2005 when the Moon Nodes were in the Aries-Libra polarity as they are right now. However, the Moon Nodes were too far away from the Full Moon polarity for it to be an Eclipse, so the last time we had a South Node Lunar Eclipse in Libra was in April 1987.

Think back to that time — if you are old enough to remember: What needed to change about your relationship with yourself and with others?

There are several aspects worth mentioning in this Full Moon-Lunar Eclipse chart:

  • The Moon in Libra not only opposes the Sun but also Chiron in Aries, and it trines Pluto in Aquarius
  • Venus, the ruler of Libra, is currently in Pisces, closely aligned with Saturn and in a wide conjunction with Neptune in Pisces
  • The Venus-Saturn alignment in Pisces sextiles the Jupiter-Uranus alignment in Taurus
  • Venus also quincunxes the South Node in Libra
  • Mars, the ruler of Aries, is currently in an early degree of Pisces and makes a semi-sextile to Pluto in Aquarius, as well as a wide conjunction to Saturn in Pisces
  • Mercury entered its pre-Shadow phase @16º of Aries on March 18th and will begin to slow down (station) @26/27º of Aries on March 28th, starting its 3.5-week Retrograde phase on April 1st!

We will address all of these aspects in a moment — but first, let’s take a look at the Libra-Aries polarity:

The Libra-Aries polarity highlights the spiritual dance between various polarities:
* individual drives/goals and one-on-one relationships
* masculine and feminine (in their ideal versions)
* independence and collaboration

Whether we are single or partnered up, we are all in a relationship with someone — any one-on-one relationship counts here — business, personal, health-related, etc.

For the next 4.5 months, we seek a balance between… To read the whole article and get all the Coaching Questions for this powerful Full Moon, click here.

Monday, March 18th:

Monday, the Moon remains in protective, nurturing Cancer all day. It will journey there until Tuesday afternoon. With this Moon placement, we are more sensitive to what people say, and our feelings are thus more easily hurt, so be kind to yourself and others. Self-care is key until Tuesday afternoon.

Emotional safety is also important to us; we like connecting to the familiar and enjoy nurturing ourselves and others — home and family call to us, for instance.

Make sure, though, that your glass is filled before letting others drink from it; otherwise, you might start to feel drained and resentful.

Monday early morning, is a great time to focus on spiritual/intuitive experiences or creative endeavors and to lend loving and nurturing support to others. As best as you can, focus on the here and now and release anything that feels outdated or stuck in the past.(Moon in Cancer trines Saturn in Piscesexact at 4:29am EDT)

Monday late morning, we have an opportunity to examine our beliefs around physical comforts and anything that gives us pleasure and stability to see if those beliefs align with what nurtures us.

It’s worthwhile to ponder philosophical questions about whether or not our needs are being met — and whether our physical comforts leave us feeling nurtured.

It is also an opportunity to connect to family (or friends that feel like family) and expand our perspectives on financial issues or concerns — or simply to take a look at our physical reality and what feeds us.(Moon in Cancer sextiles Jupiter in Taurus and squares Mercury in Ariesexact at 9:24am & 10:29am EDT)

Monday late afternoon, we are invited to make adjustments and (as best as we can) find creative solutions to seemingly insoluble situations. Make space for healing around anger or self-identity and for taking care of emotional or family issues.(Moon in Cancer squares Chiron in Aries, exact at 4:24pm EDT)

Monday evening, we have an opportunity to connect to family (or friends who feel like family) and create breakthroughs around things that we enjoy through our five senses (e.g. food). This may also be a good time to find a unique or global approach to financial matters that brings us a sense of emotional security. (Moon in Cancer sextiles Uranus in Taurus, exact at 8:20pm EDT)

Monday at 10:13pm EDT, Mercury enters its pre-Shadow phase when it reaches 16 degrees of Aries; this is 2 weeks prior to its Retrograde phase (which starts on April 1st at 27º11′ of Aries).

Mercury is the planet of communication and information exchange. Communication starts within our minds — our inner dialog is the seed for all outer communication.

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  through the same degrees of a sign (or signs) it will also pass through during its Retrograde phase.

Mercury is usually in its shadow for about two to three weeks before and after a Retrograde phase.

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 May 13th, 2024 (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”

When Mercury moves through its pre-Shadow phase in Aries, it’s time to pay attention to what comes up in our lives in connection with new beginnings, things we feel passionate about, and walking our path.

Whatever mental connections, thoughts, or conversations we initiate between March 18th and April 1st must be reviewed during the Mercury Retrograde phase (April 1st – 25th).

Lunar Eclipse in Libra — the article

On March 25th at 3am EDT/7am GMTthe Moon opposes the Sun in 5 degrees of Libra/Aries. The entrance of the Moon into Libra on March 24th begins the energetic build-up towards this powerful Full Moon.

This powerful Full Moon is a Penumbral Lunar Eclipse (the most subtle kind of Lunar Eclipses). It can be viewed in parts of Antarctica, the western half of Africa, western Europe, the Atlantic Ocean, North and South America, the Pacific Ocean, Japan, and the eastern half of Australia.

It lasts for approximately 4 hours and 40 minutes, so we can expect to sense the influence of this Lunar Eclipse for four months and twenty days. Our physical and emotional bodies strongly feel the intensity of it all, so keep in mind that 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. This means we may feel more easily triggered as buried emotions, motivations, and fears surface. Beware of projections and jumping to conclusions.

This particular Lunar Eclipse is the first of two Eclipses within two weeks; it offers an opportunity for a more balanced connection to life and others.

If you are unsure whether you are projecting something on someone else, check for defensiveness, overreactivity, or difficulty being objective while exhibiting rigid behaviors.

==> If you are already a Member of my online community, feel free to also watch my Full Moon-Lunar Eclipse video here

==> If not, don’t worry: right now, you can get the first month of the Universal Membership for FREE (cancel anytime via your Membership portal).

The Lunar Eclipse video is also included when you get this powerful 95 minute webinar about Eclipse Season & Mercury Retrograde in Aries.

Eclipse Season started on March 15th and lasts until April 18th (that’s 10 days after the Solar Eclipse in Aries that follows this Lunar Eclipse).

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?

Eclipses are always powerfully connected to the Moon Nodes and thus to our Soul’s Journey (collectively and individually).

This is the first South Node Lunar Eclipse in Libra since the Moon Nodes have shifted into the Aries-Libra polarity in July of last year — highlighting issues around relationship dynamics (“me” vs. “we”) and assertion vs. collaboration.

The Moon Nodes usually remain in any particular polarity for 18 months. They return to the same polarity every 18-19 years.

All Eclipses transmit new energetic codes and transformative downloads symbolized by the signs involved. 

The North Node in Aries emphasizes the necessity of a healthy connection with oneself — with our passions, personal goals, active pursuits, and our current independent path.

The South Node in Libra extends an invitation to create a more balanced connection between ourselves, others, and life — and to take a closer look at any dependency issues with others.

There was a Full Moon in 5º of Libra in March of 2005 when the Moon Nodes were in the Aries-Libra polarity as they are right now, however the Moon Nodes where too far away from the Full Moon polarity, for it to be an Eclipse. Therefore, the last time we had a South Node Lunar Eclipse in Libra was in April 1987. 

Think back to that time — if you are old enough to remember: What needed to change about your relationship with yourself and with others?

There are several aspects worth mentioning in this Full Moon-Lunar Eclipse chart:

  • The Moon in Libra not only opposes the Sun but also Chiron in Aries, and it trines Pluto in Aquarius
  • Venus, the ruler of Libra, is currently in Pisces, closely aligned with Saturn and in a wide conjunction with Neptune in Pisces
  • The Venus-Saturn alignment in Pisces sextiles the Jupiter-Uranus alignment in Taurus
  • Venus also quincunxes the South Node in Libra
  • Mars, the ruler of Aries, is currently in an early degree of Pisces and makes a semi-sextile to Pluto in Aquarius, as well as a wide conjunction to Saturn in Pisces
  • Mercury entered its pre-Shadow phase @16º of Aries on March 18th and will begin to slow down (station) @26/27º of Aries on March 28th, starting its 3.5-week Retrograde phase on April 1st! (See Forecasting Forum March 22nd)

We will address all of these aspects in a moment — but first, let’s take a look at the Libra-Aries polarity:

The more an Eclipse activates our birth chart, the more we feel impelled to go to the next level. 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 5 degrees of Libra:

Do you have your Ascendant (or any personal planets) in 0-10 degrees of Libra, Aries, Capricorn, or Cancer? 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).

This week’s headline items: Venus changes signs from Aquarius to Pisces on Monday early evening; on Thursday, it will be time to start taking action on your New Moon Intentions; Eclipse Season begins on Friday; lastly, the first Quarter Moon phase begins on Saturday night/Sunday very early morning.

 

There will be three Moon Void of Course (VoC) phases this week: Tuesday morning (for almost 13.5 hours), Thursday evening (for almost 5 hours), and Saturday night/Sunday very early morning (for 5 hours).

Now, this week’s Forecast…

 

Monday, March 11th:

Monday, the Moon remains in pioneering, fast-paced Aries all day. It will journey there until Tuesday evening. Life is an adventure; we’re more open to new ideas and have great enthusiasm for new projects.

Patience is certainly not our strong suit at this time, but we can decide quickly and act immediately. If you find your foot tapping, try hitting the gym or finding other ways to burn off the body’s excess energy.

Monday all day is still the most potent time to set your New Moon Intentions. If you’d like some input on how to do that, check out this article — and to (re-) watch my New Moon video, click here.

Monday at 5:50pm EDT, Venus changes signs from freedom-loving, forward-thinking Aquarius to creative, sensitive Pisces, where it will journey until April 4th/5th.

For the next four weeks, we can connect to people from our compassionate hearts. We may also idealize our relationships a little — we’re feeling quite romantic and hopeful that our dreams will be fulfilled.

With Venus in Pisces, our love is very accepting—it comes as close to “unconditional” as humans can get. One way this probably will show up is plenty of rooting for the underdog. We prefer “feeling things out” to “planning the last detail.”

As you can imagine, we may spend our money on things that don’t make “sense” — but if we heed intuition and allow for money to flow freely, we may discover that the Universe is always taking care of us.

Do you have your Ascendant or Sun-sign in Pisces? If so, this placement will bring extra love and beauty into your life. Do you have your Ascendant or Sun-sign in Taurus or Libra? You may feel a strong need for romance or unconditional love — or dream of the ideal relationship. Your finances and values may undergo the spiritual process of releasing control and trusting more to intuition and the flow of life.

Monday late evening/night, has lots of potential for healing around family, the “mother archetype”, home, and our past. We may feel more sensitive and insecure about what we identify with and around our ability to be assertive; this gives us the opportunity to give ourselves some compassion, acceptance, and nurturing in the face of our sensitivities and limitations(Moon conjuncts Chiron in Aries, exact at 12:41am EDT)

March 4th – 10th

Our Reaction to Anger 

 

This week’s headline items: the Balsamic Moon phase begins on Wednesday late evening; Mercury changes signs from Pisces to Aries on Saturday late evening; the New Moon in Pisces becomes exact on Sunday early morning.

 

There will be four Moon Void of Course (VoC) phases this week: Monday late morning (for a little over 5.5 hours), Wednesday afternoon (for 3.5 hours), Friday afternoon (for a little over 6 hours), and Sunday late afternoon (for a little over 4.5 hours).

 

Before we get to this week’s Forecast, please note:

**Summer Daylight Savings Time begins in Northern America and Canada on Sunday, March 10th at 2am EST ==> Clocks move forward one hour! This means from Sunday on, I will be posting all astrological alignments and movements in EDT.

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 hours — until March 31st, then it will be 5 hours again!

***Also, there are some Membership changes that went into effect on Jan. 24th with some NEW Membership features and some minor price changes ==> You can watch a brief video OR read about those changes here

 

Now, this week’s Forecast…

 

Monday, March 4th:

Monday, the Moon remains in optimistic, adventurous, truth-seeking Sagittarius until 4:15pm EST. 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.

Monday at 10:41am EST, we enter a Moon VoC that will last for a little over 5.5 hours until 4:15pm EST. Use this intuitive time to make some adjustments. As best you can, honor both, your need for adventure and exploration of life, and your need to go within and get quiet. You may also feel a pull between introvert and extrovert, or simply fast and slow.

Tune in for a moment and see if you need to take a break or at least slow down a little. As best as you can, be compassionate and kind to yourself.

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 afternoon ahead of time.

Monday at 4:15pm EST, the Moon moves into ambitious, pragmatic, status-oriented Capricorn, where it will journey until Wednesday evening. We tend to be more realistic, serious, and cautious; this can support practical endeavors and financial matters.

Our ambition surges and brings a need for structure and planning; when you add the pragmatism this Moon placement supports, you can see how this could be a very productive time for business and long-term goals. Our reputation will become crucial.

As best as you can during this aspect, avoid “should-ing” on yourself. Take the pressure off, perhaps by saying, “I am doing the best I can, and that’s all I can ever do”

Saturn is the ruler of Capricorn — and it is currently transiting through Pisces. This is a great time to look for practical applications of our dreams, ideologies, connection to Source, or one-consciousness.

It’s also a great time to take a more serious look at our spiritual or creative aspirations; as best as you can, be authentic about your intuitive connection to life. What works (and what doesn’t) regarding your idealism, addictions, avoidance of life, and dreams?

What about life truly resonates with you — as it stands now, rather than what it was 5 or 10 years ago? Where in your life is it time to let go of naiveté or an idealistic approach that no longer serves you?

What tools or structures support you with being in the flow, being present, and feeling connected to the Universe at this moment? What needs your time and attention? What could you practice every day? What do you genuinely want to commit yourself to?

Monday afternoon, an opportune Mercury/Uranus aspect becomes exact at 3:24pm EST. We started to feel this aspect build from Sunday afternoon (March 3rd) on; it will remain strong until Tuesday evening (March 5th). This brings an opportunity for insight and novelty. We might experience some really unusual conversations.

Remember: an opportunity is not automatically given to us; we have to realize it.

This aspect also brings an opportunity to see things from a different perspective or to put a new spin on our “old” thinking structure. We like to connect in unusual ways, and any group activities or brainstorming with like-minded people could generate amazing insights — this might be a busy day.

As best as you can — and as much as you want to — stay open to other dimensions. Ask yourself: How might connecting to others in unusual or new ways create a better future for all of us and for this planet?

Do you have your Ascendant, Career Point (or personal planets) in 17-22 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 Virgo, Gemini, or Aquarius (Mercury is the ruler of Virgo and Gemini; Uranus is the ruler of Aquarius).

Super New Moon in Pisces — the article

On March 10th, at 5am EDT/9am London-time, the Moon aligns with the Sun in 20 degrees of Pisces, marking the beginning of a new Moon cycle. Feel free also to watch my New Moon video on the subject

This is the last Lunation before we enter Eclipse Season — which starts on March 15th and lasts until April 18th.

Eclipse Season is usually an unpredictable time, as we are recalibrating on a physical, mental and emotional level which gives us a chance to move to the next level of our evolution – on a personal and collective level.

We will also talk about Eclipse Season in my next Soulivity Today Morning Show: Hot Astrology Friday on March 15th at 8am EDT. If you live in California, listen via KMET Radio at 8am PDT.

Now, back to the New Moon:

New Moons mark the ending and beginning of a monthly cycle and are an optimal time to pause, reflect, and set new Intentions for the next 28 days.

This New Moon is another SuperMoon (the second of three Super New Moons in a row). These occur when the Moon is closest to the Earth (at the time of a New or Full Moon) and are more powerful. This means greater awareness of the issues connected to the particular New Moon energy.

Since this one occurs in Pisces, this Super New Moon invites us to connect with our inner divinity and ability to receive, trust our intuition, and contribute to life from a heart-centered and empathic place.

This Super New Moon chart has four planets in Pisces, including the Sun, Moon, Saturn, and Neptune. Neptune (the ruler of Pisces) is within 7 degrees of the New Moon, still close enough to make an impact and invite us to open our hearts and dissolve anything that keeps us separate from that heart connection.

The New Moon sextiles Uranus in Taurus, making this an opportune time to tune into the unique value we each have.

Mars in Aquarius is most aspected in this Super New Moon chart. It semi-sextiles the New Moon in Pisces, sextiles Chiron in Aries, and squares Uranus in Taurus.

This will bring an opportunity for more profound healing, individually and collectively speaking. But we are also invited to stretch ourselves and grow beyond what we have known ourselves to be. I will go into all of this in more detail in a moment, but first, let’s talk about the Pisces-energy:

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 vibrationPisces…

Do you have your Ascendant or any personal planets in 18-22 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).

Before I talk about New Moon Intentions, let me mention my next FORECASTING FORUM…

This 90+ min. webinar will be about the upcoming Eclipse Season and the first full Mercury Retrograde of the year in Aries as they relate to our birth charts. 

You can join us live on Friday, March 22nd at 1pm EDT/10am PDT/5pm London-time. If this date and time doesn’t work for you, register to get the mp4-video presentation.

Early Bird Special available until March 20th at midnight EDT! To register for this month only, click here

NEW! Universal Members get a 10% discount for all of my Forecasting Forums at any time! If you’d like to be registered automatically every month, become a Star Member on my site.

If you are already a Star Member OR already registered for the upcoming Forum, you can email me with a question about the upcoming Eclipses OR the Mercury Retrograde until March 22nd at 11am EDT! Questions are answered in the order that they have been received.

The New Moon is also the best time to set powerful intentions for this month’s Moon cycle. This is best done soon after the New Moon becomes exact — and not during a Moon Void of Course phase.

So this month, the two best and most potent times to set intentions would be between 5am and 3:45pm on March 10th and from 8:19pm on March 10th until 5am on March 12th — New York time.

If you live in a timezone other than EST (US East Coast time), I recommend you join my Facebook page or follow me on Twitter as I post reminders on March 10th, 11th, and 12th to let you know when to set your intentions.

February 26th – March 3rd

Go Within & Connect to Your Intuitive Knowing

 

This week’s headline items: there will be Leap Day on Thursday (we are getting an extra day in February this year! Yay!). There will be an extra-long Moon void of Course from Tuesday afternoon to Wednesday late evening; and the last Quarter Moon in Sagittarius becomes exact on Sunday late morning.

 

There will be three Moon Void of Course (VoC) phases this week: Monday very early morning (for almost 7 hours), Tuesday afternoon  (for almost 33 hours), and Friday night/Saturday very early morning (for a little over 8 hours).

 

Before we get to this week’s Forecast, you can still…

Now, this week’s Forecast…

 

Monday, February 26th:

Monday, the Moon remains in detail-oriented, practical Virgo and VoC until 9:29am EST. Use this intuitive time to find a balance between head and heart, facts and faith, reason and intuition.

It’s a great time for connecting with others and being of service. You may also want to talk to your pets or engage in more spiritual conversations that can also support your physical well-being.

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.

Monday at 9:29am EST, the Moon enters harmony-loving, balance-seeking Libra, where it will journey until Wednesday late evening. The energy of the Libra Moon helps us be naturally courteous and diplomatic; we are more polite at this time as we seek the approval of others.

We very much want to maintain equal, fair relationships at this time and are therefore open to making compromises and negotiating. These next two days are a great time for mediation — but our need for peace and accompanying aversion to direct conflict could pull us to “yes” more easily than we might like.

We may also be able to see both sides of the equation so well that we can’t make decisions. As best as you can, find an inner balance with this and communicate what needs to be said with grace and charm — even if it’s “No”  

One last quick note: this is also a great time for anything to do with visual arts.

Monday late morning/early afternoon, we sense harmonious connections, even though we are focused on making progress. We are invited to bring emotional authenticity to our visions for the future; we are also invited to create deeper, more authentic connections with like-minded people. (Moon in Libra trines Pluto in Aquarius, exact at 11:47am EST)

Monday late evening, we are invited to make some internal adjustments: we may want to be social and collaborate with others (especially within our one-on-one relationships) but may also feel a need to tune in with ourselves and communicate from a more intuitive or spiritual place — introverted vs. extroverted.

Now, this week’s Forecast…

 

Monday, February 19th:

Monday, the Moon remains in protective, nurturing Cancer all day; it will journey there until Wednesday morning. With this Moon placement, we are more sensitive to what people say and therefore our feelings are more easily hurt — so be kind to yourself and others. Self-care is key until Wednesday morning!

Monday morning, requires some inner adjustments. We feel uneasy or awkward and need to make a choice, one that demands we develop inner awareness around two very different urges…

On the one hand, the desire to be actively engaged in collaborating with like-minded people who share our vision for a better future — and on the other hand, the need to nurture ourselves and stay in touch with our feeling body.(Moon in Cancer quincunxes Venus & Mars in Aquarius, exact at 5am & 7:30am EST)

Monday afternoon, a Chiron/North Node alignment in almost 17 degrees of Aries becomes exact at 4:13pm EST. This alignment started to build in July of 2023 and will last until June 17th, 2024; it is at its most intense between January 24th and March 25th, 2024. 

The last time we experienced this exact alignment in Aries was on Feb. 14th, 1969 — 55 years ago! The most recent Chiron-North Node alignment took place in Aquarius, on June 2nd, 2008. Before then, there was an alignment in Gemini on July 4th, 1984.

Chiron represents a bridge between the physical and the spiritual world. It is also referred to as the Wounded Healer.

It invites us to focus on a more holistic approach towards our passions and our physical activities — in other words, a healing process of the masculine energies in our world. We may feel more physically sensitive or humbled by our current human journey — and it is essential that we see ourselves and everyone else out there as “human”,

Our human nature comes with a feeling of separation, various limitations, and sometimes painful experiences. Our spiritual nature comes with an understanding that all is well and that compassion and love heal our feelings of separation and abandonment. We are now asked to integrate these two “natures”.

The North Node represents our collective and individual Soul’s Journey. It now invites us to make an effort to live from the archetypical energy of Aries. This means we need to trust our impulses, follow our passion, be courageous, and be ourselves completely, without apologies.

With this alignment, Chiron sets the agenda for our current North Node journey. With Chiron involved, our North Node journey focuses on a healing process of the masculine energies in our world. Compassion, love, and understanding are required on an individual and collective level if we want to move our relationship with the masculine to a higher vibrational place.

This is a very humbling experience. We are invited to be compassionate leaders in our own lives, embracing our humanity and inspiring the same in others.

It is important that we see ourselves and everyone else out there as “human” — and that we acknowledge that the human experience is not always an easy one, especially when we hold on to the ideas of separation and duality.

When we learn to stay away from judgments of ourselves and others and embrace our humanness through self-compassion and understanding, we become the Healers the world needs right now.

Ask yourself: Could I show the world, by example, what it looks like to be a humble and compassionate leader who inspires and doesn’t judge?

==> We’ll look at this long-term aspect in more detail — in connection with our birth charts — in our upcoming Forecasting Forum on Friday, Feb. 23rd, at 5pm EST/2pm PST/10pm London time.

Full Moon in Virgo — the article

The next Full Moon will be “exact” on February 24th, at 7:30am EST in 5.5 degrees of Virgo — and by then, we are halfway through the Lunar cycle that started on Feb. 9th.

Look at the New Moon Intentions you set around Feb. 10th or 11th, and ask yourself: How far have I come with those Intentions? If I’m not where I’d like to be with my goals, what new course might bring them closer?

If you are already a Member of my online community, I invite you to watch my Full Moon video.

We start to feel the build-up towards this Full Moon when the Moon enters Virgo on Feb 23rd at 8:37pm EST.

This particular Full Moon has a planetary line-up in Aquarius (squaring Jupiter in Taurus) and a line-up in Pisces (sextiling Jupiter).

We will also examine some Moon aspects, including a Trine to Jupiter (the traditional ruler of Pisces) and the Opposition to Mercury & Saturn in Pisces. More about all of this in a moment…

We also have Chiron, the Wounded Healer, closely aligned with the North Node (our Soul’s current focus). We’ll look at this long-term aspect in more detail — in connection with our birth charts — in our upcoming Forecasting Forum on Friday, Feb. 23rd, at 5pm EST/2pm PST/10pm London time.

This alignment started to build in July of 2023 and will last until June 17th, 2024; it is at its most intense between January 24th and March 25th, 2024.

Chiron represents a bridge between the physical and the spiritual world. It invites us to focus on a more holistic approach towards our passions and our physical activities — in other words, a healing process of the masculine energies in our world.

We may feel more physically sensitive or humbled by our current human journey — and it is essential that we see ourselves and everyone else out there as “human”, acknowledging that the human experience is not easy, especially when we hold on to the idea of separation and duality.

So, if you want to know how Chiron’s alignment with the North Node in Aries impacts you personally, SIGN UP to join the webinar LIVE or register to receive an mp4 video presentation within 24 hours of the live event. The EARLY BIRD SPECIAL is still available until Feb. 21st at midnight EST! And all of my Universal Members now get a 10% discount for all my monthly Forecasting Forums!

Star Members: You are still automatically registered at no extra cost and will receive an email with a link to join live on Feb. 23rd — and you will also automatically receive a video recording within 24 hours of the live event.

If you are reading this after Feb. 23rd, it’s too late to join live, but you can still get the mp4-video recording of “Healing on a Personal & Collective level Chiron and the North Node in Arieshere.

Now, a Full Moon is always an opposition between the Moon and the Sun; in this case, the Moon also opposes Mercury and Saturn in Pisces. During any opposition, we seek balance, alignment, and integration around two “opposing” perspectives.

We often 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…

This week’s headline items: Mars changes signs from Capricorn to Aquarius on Monday night/Tuesday very early morning; late on Friday morning, Venus also moves into Aquarius, and the first Quarter Moon in Taurus becomes exact. Late Sunday evening, the Sun changes signs from Aquarius to Pisces.

 

There will be four Moon Void of Course (VoC) phases this week: Monday morning (for almost 1 hour), Wednesday early morning (for a little over 4.5 hours), Friday late morning (for a little over 4.5 hours), and Sunday late evening (for 4 minutes).

 

Before we get to this week’s Forecast, I want to mention…

I will be co-hosting another Soulivity Today Morning Show on Friday, Feb. 16th at 8am EST! Click here to join our show: Hot Astrology Topics

Now, this week’s Forecast…

 

Monday, February 12th:

Monday, the Moon remains in creative, sensitive Pisces until 8:26am EST. This Moon placement often finds us more sensitive, intuitive, idealistic, and imaginative than usual. 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 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.

Monday at 7:32am EST, we enter a brief Moon VoC that will last for 1 hour, until 8:26am EST. Use this intuitive time as an opportunity to tap into your intuitive and imaginative abilities — then focus anew on your long-term goals — so as best as you can, allow your pursuits to be guided by your intuitive knowing!

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 ahead of time.

Monday at 8:26am EST, the Moon moves into pioneering, fast-paced Aries, where it will journey until Wednesday late morning. Life is an adventure, we’re more open to new ideas, and have great enthusiasm for new projects. Patience is certainly not our strong suit at this time, but we can decide quickly, and act immediately.

Our independence and dynamism are important to us right now, so we may find it hard to be disciplined or accept advice at this time; in general, our responses to others tend to be more assertive or even aggressive. If you find your foot tapping, try hitting the gym, or finding other ways to burn off the body’s excess energy.

Monday night/Tuesday very early morning at 1:05am EST, Mars changes signs from ambitious, goal-oriented Capricorn to freedom-loving, forward-thinking Aquarius, where it will journey until March 22nd. During this time, we enjoy surprising ourselves and others.

The tried-and-true methods of getting things done are far too boring for us right now. We are looking for unique and original goals, and we tend to have a rather original, forward-thinking view of the world now.

What if you suddenly said, “I am going to surprise myself” when you were least expecting it?

Mental and intellectual pursuits are important to us now. The Aquarian ideal of equality is strong with this position, so we also place a lot of value on freedom and individuality — our own and that of others.

With Mars in this fixed sign, we will definitely need our independence, especially in personal relationships — and we are not easily pushed around. However, we do love connecting with like-minded people at this time (in person or online), so if you have a special cause or community project that you like to engage in, go for it!

It’s best to give ourselves and others lots of space; if we feel boxed in, we may rebel or act contrary. In general, we may feel a desire to push our agenda on others — not in an aggressive way, though… more in a creative manner.

As best as you can, bring a sense of openness to your approach to people and situations. Be aware of feeling superior to others: if you find yourself thinking that someone (or a “class” or group of people) is less “special” than you, put your hand over your heart and ask, “What would my heart say to this?”

The last time Mars journeyed through Aquarius was March 6th – April 14th, 2022. Think back to those times: what got initiated around then? How could you move that to the next level?

If you have an Aries Sun- or Rising-sign, you are going to feel more detached, forward-thinking, and freedom-loving. You may want to change things in your life that have outlived their use.

If you are an Aquarius Sun-sign or Rising sign, you will feel quite energized for the next 5.5 weeks. Channeling this energy into physical exercise or projects with like-minded people might be advisable.

Super New Moon in Aquarius — the article

On Feb. 9th at 5:59pm EST, a powerful New Moon in 20.5 degrees of Aquarius becomes exact; this is the beginning of a new Moon cycle. I also recommend you watch my video on the subject.

Please note: there are some Membership changes that went into effect on Jan. 24th with some new Membership features and some minor price changes. You can watch a brief video about those changes here.

This New Moon is also a SuperMoon — the first of three Super New Moons in a row, when the Moon is nearest to the Earth, increasing its gravitational effects on ocean tides, tectonic plates, and our emotional body. If we allow it, Super Moons can lead to significant shifts in consciousness.

Since this one occurs in Aquarius, this Super New Moon invites us to go out there and connect with “our people”– with a tribe that resonates, a cause that feels aligned with our values and our need for stability and comfort. This connection serves a larger vision for our financial future and the future of our planet, etc.

This New Moon takes place only 6 hours before the Chinese New Year begins, marking the beginning of the Year of the Yang Wood Dragon. This symbolizes vigor, charm, and strength. It also represents royalty (the Emperor), wisdom, and prosperity. Therefore, a Dragon Year brings good fortune, power, passion, and new opportunities.

The Wood year is a time for quick growth and development. There can be sudden breakthroughs and fast changes. The Wood and Dragon energy combination could be overwhelming for some of us.

Anticipate a year that is exciting, creative, and transformational. Risk-taking and forceful pursuit of our goals will yield great results. Life’s pace is fast and dynamic; anything can happen in a Dragon year. Be prepared for an unpredictable and possibly volatile year. The motto for this year could be: “Never a dull moment.”

Ask yourself: Where am I ready to take a risk? Where do I feel the calling to pursue a goal passionately? Where do I need to step outside my comfort zone for a new adventure?

Coming back to Western Astrology, until April 1st, all planets will be in forward motion. This indicates an accelerated time of manifestation — especially connected to new projects or ideas.

It will be extra important to stay focused and grounded and regularly check that we’re moving in the “right” direction.

Ask yourself: What in my life is asking for accelerated progress? What do I wish to manifest with the support of the Universe?

Here is what we will cover in connection with this Super New Moon: 

* Uranus (the planet associated with breakdowns, breakthroughs, and innovation), modern ruler of Aquarius, is currently in Taurus and still exalted in this Super New Moon chart. It will also make a powerful Square to the New Moon and a Trine to Venus in Capricorn.

* Saturn (the planet associated with building sustainable structures), the traditional ruler of Aquarius, is currently in Pisces and is still in a Sextile to Jupiter in Taurus (due to Jupiter’s Station and Retrograde phases, this has been going on since Dec. 7th of last year)

Venus is part of a planetary Line-up (Stellium) that includes Mars in CapricornPluto in Aquarius, and Mercury in Aquarius.

This will also be Pluto’s first New Moon since changing signs from Capricorn to Aquarius on Jan. 20th — and the New Moon will also be in the same sign as Pluto.

With all this, we are being asked to be extra-mindful about connecting to our physical reality (our body, our finances, and the planet) in an innovative and unique manner.

We are also being asked to bring integrity and maturity to our connections with others, to our collaboration, and to be extra conscious about how we interact with others: choosing Love over fear, whenever we can. More about all of this and more below…

Let’s first talk a little bit about Aquarius and what this energy represents before jumping into the aspects of this Super New Moon chart:

The highest vibration of Aquarius is to experience unity in diversity — to know ourselves as both an individual and an integral member of the human race. It’s a place where we…

Do you have your Ascendant (or any personal planets) in 18-23 degrees of Aquarius, Leo, Taurus, or Scorpio? 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).

Finally, let’s talk “New Moon Intentions… The New Moon is 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 not during a Moon void of Course phase.

There will be a Moon VoC starting with the New Moon on Feb. 9th, which means we are best off waiting until the next day to set our intentions.

That means that this month, the best time and most potent time to set intentions would be any time between 8:42am on Feb. 10th and 5:59pm on Feb. 11th – (New York Time/US Eastern Time)

If you live in a timezone other than EST (US East Coast) and converting time zones isn’t your thing, I suggest joining my Facebook page, following me on Twitter or Instagram. I will post reminders to let you know when to set your New Moon intentions.

For more info about Setting Intentions, click here.

**We will also have another Soulivity Today Morning Show: “Hot Astrology Topics” coming up, on Feb. 16th at 8am EST. Watch our show live via Youtube (or later as a recording), or if you live in California, you can listen in via KMET Radio (98.1FM) at 8am PST.

==> I will be interviewed the lovely Brian Westley Johnson, and I will give a preview about what to expect for February with Venus making a powerful connection to Pluto in Aquarius on the 17th and Chiron to the North Node in Aries on the 19th!
