On April 7th at 10:35pm EDT,the Full Moon becomes exact in almost 19 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, it is another SuperMoon (i.e. the Moon is at its closest distance to the Earth); secondly, Pluto is exalted and conjunct Jupiter in Capricorn, and in a square aspect to the Full Moon! All of this increases emotionality and fosters larger shifts in consciousness.
There are lots of other aspects in this Full Moon chart as well, and we will address all of them in a moment; and if you are a Member of my online community, feel free to also watch my Full Moon video here
On Monday afternoon, April 6th, the Moon enters Libra; this starts the energetic build up towards the Full Moon — and 29 hours later, the Sun in Aries opposes the Moonin Libra.
Ask yourself: How far have I come with the Intentions I set around March 24th’s New Moon? If I’m not where I’d like to be with those intentions, what new course might take me closer to my goals?
The Libra-Aries polarity highlights the spiritual dance between various polarities: individual drives 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.
For the next two weeks, we seek…

Do you have your Ascendant (or any personal planets) in 16-21 degrees of Libra, Aries, Capricorn, 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 inLeoorCancer(the Sun rules Leo; the Moon rules Cancer).

A Larger Perspective — Forecast for March 30th – April 5th
This week’s headline items: Mars changes signs from Capricorn to Aquarius on Monday afternoon; the first Quarter Moon in Cancer becomes exact on Wednesday morning; Venus changes signs from Taurus to Gemini Friday afternoon; also on Friday, Pluto starts its Station phase (slows down/preparing to go retrograde).
There are also two very important conjunctions taking place this week: the Mars/Saturn conjunction in Aquarius on Tuesday afternoon, and the Jupiter/Pluto conjunction in Capricorn on Saturday afternoon! We will be talking about both in the upcoming Forecasting Forum on April 6th, in connection with our own Birth charts! Click here to register, if you are not already a Star Member 😉 EARLY BIRD SPECIAL available until this Friday at midnight.
There will be three Moon VoC phases this week: Monday late morning (for 20.5 hours), Thursday early afternoon (for a little over 1.5 hours), and Friday late afternoon (for almost 26 hours).
Now, this week’s Forecast…
Monday, March 30th:
Monday, the Moon remains in chatty, versatile Gemini all day. It will journey there until Tuesday morning. For the next day, 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 🙂
Monday at 11:10am EDT, we enter a Moon Void of Course (VoC), that lasts for 20.5 hours until 7:43am EDT (Tuesday morning). Use this intuitive time to clarify what’s important to you. Ask yourself: What works for me in my daily routines? What doesn’t? What are my expectations or attitudes towards those things? What new vantage point might show me how to easily implement my business 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 late morning until Tuesday morning ahead of time.
Monday at 3:43pm EDT, Mars changes signs from ambitious, goal-oriented Capricorn to freedom-loving, forward-thinking Aquarius, where it will journey until May 12/13th. 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 “surprise yourself”, 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 in 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-mined 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 May – August 2018, and Sept. – Nov. 2018. 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-sign 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 6 weeks. Channeling this energy into physical exercise or projects with like-mined people might be advisable.
Monday late evening, feels a little uneasy. We need to develop an inner awareness around our two seemingly opposite pulls: on the one hand,…

A Beautiful Healing Experience — Forecast March 23 – 29th
This week’s headline items: the New Moon in Aries becomes exact on Tuesday early morning, it’s time to start taking action on our New Moon intentions on Sunday, and Mercury exits its post-Shadow phase on Sunday.
There will be three Moon VoC phases this week: Monday late morning (for a little over 10 hours), Thursday very early morning (for almost 6.5 hours) and Saturday evening (for 2.5 hours).
Before we get to this week’s forecast, I’d like to mention:
On Sunday (March 29th) at 2am, Daylight Savings Time begins in the UK and Europe — which means that we now all have Summer Time, and converting to your time zone will be the same as it is for most of the year — for example, for the UK it will be the usual 5 hours again.
Also, my husband and I recorded a video chat earlier today with a dear friend of ours who is an awakening consciousness teacher and coach (David Ellzey). And I wanted to share this conversation with you. It is about the current state of affairs seen from all different perspectives and it might help to hear what all three of us had to say and contribute to that conversation. Click here to watch.
Now, this week’s Forecast…
Monday, March 23rd:
Monday, the Moon remains in creative, sensitive Piscesuntil 8:58pm EDT. 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 today.
Monday very early morning, a Mars/Pluto alignment in almost 25 degrees of Capricorn becomes exact at 1:21am EDT. We started to feel this aspect build from last week Wednesday evening (March 18th) on; it will remain strong until this Friday. This alignment connects our personal will to the Universal Will. If we feel the need to connect to something, we will feel it passionately, especially when it comes to our long-term goals and our public image.
We may feel impatient (or even obsessive) right now about our career goals. Suppressed desires surface; we will need to take actions on them, one way or another.
If you are able to connect — body and soul — to that passion, you will be able to move towards a much higher goal. This may be a goal that is truthfully connected to the whole of you, perhaps even to your Soul Purpose for this lifetime.
Mars last aligned with Pluto in late April of 2018; unresolved issues from that period can now move to the next level. What were you up to back then?
Do you have your Ascendant, Career Point (MC) or personal planets in 21-28 degrees of Capricorn, Cancer, Libra or Aries? 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 Aries or Scorpio (Mars is the ruler of Aries, so those folks will always be affected more strongly by Mars’s movements and aspects; Pluto is the ruler of Scorpio, so they likewise feel Pluto’s movements and aspects more strongly)
Monday at 10:51am EDT, we enter a Moon Void of Course (VoC), that lasts for a little over 10 hours until 8:58pm EDT. Use this intuitive time as an opportunity to tap into your intuitive and imaginative abilities — then focus anew on your long-term 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 late morning until the late evening ahead of time.
Monday at 8:58pm EDT, the Moon moves into pioneering, fast-paced Aries, where it will journey until Thursday 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. This Moon placement also starts the build up towards the New Moon (exact on Tuesday early morning)… more on that later… and in the meantime, feel free to watch my New Moon video for more info.
Monday late evening, we get an opportunity to…

On March 21st, 2020, Saturn changed signs from practical, cautious, accomplishment-oriented Capricorn to freedom-loving, forward-thinking and objective Aquarius, where it journeyed until July 1st, 2020. This was a preview of what’s to come in December of 2020, when Saturn makes its second move into Aquarius on Dec. 17th, this time until March 2023.
Saturn feels pretty comfortable in Aquarius, as it is the traditional ruler of this air-sign and therefore “co-rules” it together with Uranus (the modern ruler); it is inviting us to look for practical applications of group consciousness, our inventions, ideas, future visions, etc. This transit could also teach us that there is freedom and liberation in abiding by particular rules — but it’s best to avoid rigid thinking.
So, until March 2023, we are invited to…

All this is especially true if you are a Capricorn or Aquarius Sun- or Rising-sign. As a Capricorn, you will feel a greater need for a “cause” — let’s hope it’s a good one that benefits most of humanity 🙂 As an Aquarius, you will most likely feel a greater sense of responsibility, a need to be more realistic, serious, and mature, in the next 2 years.

Early on March 24th, at 5:28am EDT, the Moon aligns with the Sun in 4 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-oriented New Moon, with the focus on ourselves; we want to speed things up — 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.
That said, we can’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 plain fear, or 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 allow ourselves to be in the condition of “not knowing” or “beginners mind”; at these times, we are more present, and creative potential is heightened.
Ask yourself: Where could I bring a “beginner’s mind” to bear? Where do I need to let go of needing to know everything before I begin?
New Moon in Aries aligns with Chiron (the Wounded Healer); this presents an opportunity to share our individual approach toward gentler leadership, and inspire others to engage in a healing process around the masculine “yang” energy — to do some healing around…

Do you have your Ascendant (or any personal planets) in 2-6 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)

Stay Very Present & Grounded in Reality – Forecast for March 16th – 22nd
This week’s headline items: Mercury changes signs again (from Aquarius to Pisces), very early on Monday morning; the last Quarter Moon in Sagittarius also becomes exact on Monday early morning; the Sun changes signs from Pisces to Aries, late Thursday evening — in the Northern hemisphere, this also marks the Spring Equinox; the Balsamic Moon phase begins on Friday very early morning; and Saturn changes signs from Capricorn to Aquarius on Saturday late evening, giving us a preview of what’s to come in December.
There will be three Moon VoC phases this week: Monday morning (for almost 7 hours), Wednesday evening (for a brief 28 minutes), and Friday early morning (for 27.5 hours).
Now, this week’s Forecast…
Monday, March 16th:
Monday, the Moon remains in optimistic, adventurous, truth-seeking Sagittariusuntil 12:25pm EDT. 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 started the build up towards the last Quarter Moon in Sagittarius (exact later this morning).
Monday early morning, at 3:42am EDT, Mercury leaves freedom-loving, forward-thinking Aquarius, and moves into creative, compassionate Pisces. It will journey through this dreamy, creative sign until April 11th. We are moving from the mind into the heart.
Due to Mercury’s recent Retrograde phase, Mercury journeyed through Pisces previously, between Feb. 3rd and March 4th. Think back to that time: What did you communicate to others at that time — and how? What came up intuitively? Did you get a chance to tune in or rest more? What was your inner dialog all about?
For these next 3.5 weeks, we get a chance to communicate with compassion — we see the commonalities between us all, rather than what separates us.
We seem to be connected to Source more easily during this time — if we allow that energy to come through — and our thinking will be very creative, imaginative and intuitive. As best as you can, use your imagination to create something heart-based, rather than fear-based.
The key with this energy is to remain in the “here and now” and open up to a higher vibration. If we can do that, we will be able to download information from an intuitive place, rather than thinking things through. This could also be the reason why our mind is slowing down a bit and why we speak more softly.
Mercury in Pisces also offers us an opportunity to let go of any mental structures, conditionings or fears that are no longer serving us. If you are not connected to your intuition, you may want to double check with other people, before signing any documents or buying any big-ticket items. Are you ready to connect to your intuition more fully? Can you allow for the unfolding process, trusting your higher Self more fully?
Do you have your Ascendant or Sun-sign in Pisces? If so, you may feel more talkative during this time. Do you have your Ascendant or Sun-sign in Gemini or Virgo? If so, you may need to learn to surrender to a slower pace and connect more fully to your heart and intuition.
Monday at 5:34am EDT, the last Quarter Moon in 26 degrees of Sagittarius will be exact. The Moon in adventurous, truth-seeking Sagittarius makes a challenging aspect to the Sun in sensitive, dreamy, compassionate Pisces.
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, which will be exact on March 24th (in Aries)
With the last Quarter Moon, rather than starting major new projects, it serves us take a look at what was started around the time of the last New Moon — in this case, around Feb. 23rd. We now have about a week to wrap those projects up. What — if anything — needs last-minute adjustments? What did you discover since Feb. 23rd? What did it mean for you?
Do you have your Ascendant, Career Point (or personal planets) in 24-28 degrees of Sagittarius, Pisces, Gemini or Virgo? 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.
Also, Monday, at 5:34am EDT, we enter a Moon Void of Course (VoC), that lasts for almost 7 hours until 12:25pm EDT. Use this intuitive time to allow for some adjustments. Honor both your need for adventure & exploration of life, and your need to go within.
Tune in frequently during this time, and see if you need to take a break or at least slow down a little. As best as you can, allow for daydreaming, naps, or intuitive self-expression.
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 early afternoon ahead of time.
Monday at 12:25pm EDT, the Moon moves into practical, accomplishment-oriented Capricorn, where it will journey until Wednesday late evening. We tend to be more realistic, serious, cautious; this can support practical endeavors and financial matters.
Our ambition surges and brings with it a need for structure and planning; when you add in the pragmatism this aspect supports, you can see how this could be a very productive time for business and long-term goals. Our reputation becomes very important to us.
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; it is currently transiting through its own sign, making this a great time to take look at your long-term aspirations and anything that you would like to master. It’s also a great time to take a more serious look at our strategies for self-mastery. For starters: Do you truly see…

Discern without Judgment — Forecast for March 9th – 15th
This week’s headline items: the Super Full Moon in Virgo becomes exact on Monday afternoon. Late Monday evening, Mercury comes to a halt, beginning its post-Shadow phase and ending its 3-week Retrograde phase; on Sunday, the planet’s Station phase ends and it resumes its regular pace through the sky.
There will be three Moon VoC phases this week: Tuesday early morning (for a 1.5 hours), Thursday early morning (for a little over an hour) and Saturday morning (for an hour).
Before we get to this week’s forecast, I have two quick announcements:
If you missed my Forecasting Forum on Sunday morning… and still would like to learn how the current planetary alignments are impacting you personally… feel free to watch the mp4-video presentation about Mercury going direct in 28º Aquarius & the Super Full Moon in Virgo — as it relates to your own Birth Chart…
Star Members: check your email for the link to the mp4-video recording and enjoy watching it! I sent it out on March 8th in the evening 😉
Now, this week’s Forecast…
Monday, March 9th:
Monday, the Moon remains in detail-oriented, practical Virgo all day; 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. This Moon placement from Sunday morning (March 8th) on, started the build up towards the Full Moon (exact this afternoon).
As mentioned above, the Moon’s entrance into Virgo started the energetic build up towards the Full Moon that will be “exact” today (Monday) at 1:48pm EDT in a little over 19.5 degrees of Virgo.
This particular Full Moon has a heightened effect on us, as it is also a SuperMoon (i.e., the Moon is at its closest distance to the Earth); SuperMoons generate greater gravitational and electromagnetic pulls on our physical and emotional bodies — and pull more powerfully on our psyches too, increasing emotionality and fostering larger shifts in consciousness.
Ask yourself: How far have I come with the Intentions I set around Feb. 23rd’s New Moon? If I’m not where I’d like to be with those intentions, what new course might take me closer to my goals?
A Full Moon is always an opposition between the Moon and the Sun; during these oppositions, we seek balance, alignment and integration around two perspectives that seem like polar opposites. Very often, we experience this through our interactions with others, and since these interactions are also the pathway to resolution, relationships of all kinds are highlighted during Full Moons.
In this case, 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, while Pisces reminds us of a transcendent wholeness — our divinity and interconnectedness with all of life.
Virgo benefits from apprenticeship, whereas Pisces learns to trust inner guidance above all else — when balanced, we are able to discern without judgment, serve without obligation, and love all of creation, including ourselves.
Virgo analyzes, Pisces feels: We are invited to discern what’s real, so we can make healthier choices.
Do you have your Ascendant, Career Point, or personal planets in 17-22 degrees of Virgo, Pisces, Gemini, or Sagittarius ? If so, this month’s Full Moon will affect you more; the same is true for those of us with our Ascendant or Sun-sign in Leo or Cancer (the Sun rules Leo; the Moon rules Cancer).
Monday at 11:49pm EDT, Mercury comes to a halt at 28º of Aquarius — ending its 3-week Retrograde phase, and slowly starts its direct motion. As best as you can, go with the flow, keep an open mind and pay attention to anything that is in your face right now — you may need to address those issues again, when Mercury moves through its Shadow phase…more on that later.
We are slowly ready to shift our focus back towards the outer world again, taking in new information and sharing from a new perspective. What did you learn about your intuitive knowingness and inner divinity over the past 3 weeks? How might you share your findings in a healthy way with others? What needs to be addressed with regards to your future vision or what you feel intuitively connected to?
When Mercury gets back to its regular speed (by March 15th), communication and transportation will get back to normal; the same is true of any associated gadgets, vehicles, etc.
Some of us will feel the effects of this station more than others: those of us with Gemini or Virgo as our Sun- or Rising-Sign (Ascendant) — and those of us with personal planets (or angles) in the following: 26-29 degrees of Aquarius, Leo, Taurus, Scorpio, or 0 degrees of Pisces, Virgo, Gemini or Sagittarius.
Also, Monday, Mercury’s post-Shadow phase begins — lasting until March 29th…. as you may recall, I mentioned Mercury Shadow phases in this update a few weeks back: If you want to buy, sell or ship big-ticket items, it’s best to avoid the periods shortly before Mercury goes retrograde, and after it goes direct. This is especially true if the items are connected to…

The next Full Moon will be “exact” on March 9th, at 1:48pm EDT, in 19.5 degrees of Virgo. This Full Moon has a heightened effect on us, as it is also a SuperMoon (i.e., the Moon is at its closest distance to the Earth); SuperMoons generate greater gravitational and electromagnetic pulls on our physical and emotional bodies — and pull more powerfully on our psyches too, increasing emotionality and fostering larger shifts in consciousness.
Ask yourself: How far have I come with the Intentions I set around Feb. 23rd’s New Moon? If I’m not where I’d like to be with those intentions, what new course might take me closer to my goals?
A Full Moon is always an opposition between the Moon and the Sun; during these oppositions, we seek balance, alignment and integration around two perspectives that seem like polar opposites. Very often, we experience this through our interactions with others, and since these interactions are also the pathway to resolution, relationships of all kinds are highlighted during Full Moons.
In this case, 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, while Pisces reminds us of a transcendent wholeness — our divinity and interconnectedness with all of life.
Virgo benefits from apprenticeship, whereas Pisces learns to trust inner guidance above all else — when balanced, we are able to discern without judgment, serve without obligation, and love all of creation, including ourselves.
Virgo analyzes, Pisces feels: We are invited to discern what’s real, so we can make healthier choices.
To find the balance between Virgo and Pisces, ask yourself:

Enthusiasm & Maturity — Forecast for March 2nd – 8th
This week’s headline items: Mercury is still Retrograde all week, and on Wednesday afternoon, it will be re-entering Aquarius for a brief period, while late that evening, Venus changes signs from Aries to Taurus. On Thursday morning, Mercury goes into its Station-phase again, preparing to end its 3-week Retrograde phase.
There will be three Moon VoC phases this week: Tuesday evening (for a little over 2 hours), Friday very early morning (for a little over 2 hours), and Sunday early morning (for a little over 2.5 hours).
Before we get to this week’s forecast, I have two quick announcements:
1) On Sunday (March 8th) at 2am, Daylight Savings Time begins in North America and Canada; from Sunday on, I will be posting all astrological alignments and movements in EDT (US-Eastern Daylight Savings Time). If you live in the UK, Europe, or Australia/New Zealand, please keep this additional one hour time difference in mind, when converting to your time zone 😉 For example, for the UK it will be 4 hours ahead instead of the usual 5 — until March 29th.
2)Last chance to register for this week’s Forecasting Forum, live on Sunday, and get the scoop on Mercury going direct, as well as the SuperMoon in Virgo (both exact on March 9th). How can you start to implement things that came up during the Mercury Retrograde phase? What are you most aware of in your relationships at this time? Where do you need to bring more more discernment to bear in your life?
To register for this month only, click here (non-Members also get access to this month’s Full Moon/SuperMoon video when they register). Other than booking a reading with me, this is the highest level of support you can get — and it’s only $37 for the 90+ minute webinar.
EARLY BIRD SPECIAL available until March 5th!
If you would like to join live, please keep in mind that registration will close an hour before the live event begins, if you register after 10:30am EDT on Sunday you will receive the mp4-video presentation of the webinar.

Now, this week’s Forecast…
Monday, March 2nd:
Monday, the Moon remains in chatty, versatile Gemini all day. It will journey there until Tuesday late evening. Until then, 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 🙂
Monday late morning: we may experience some internal discomfort and need to make some inner adjustments. We feel nudged toward mature and cautious actions that build something durable.
Monday afternoon, at 2:57pm EST, the first Quarter Moon in a little over 12.5 degrees of Gemini becomes exact (we started to feel this aspect build from the moment the Moon entered Gemini on Sunday afternoon – March 1st). The Moon in chatty, versatile Gemini makes a challenging aspect to the Sun in sensitive, compassionate Pisces.
We feel compelled to take action. On Feb. 23rd, the New Moon in Pisces became exact: “Seeds” planted then are probably “sprouting” by now — and making their first real contact with the outside world. This is therefore a time to stretch and grow — and create some forward momentum. We may feel anxious or unusually busy.
As best as you can, go one breath at a time. Allow for changes, remain flexible (as much as possible), and find creative solutions for your day-to-day interactions with others.
Do you have your Ascendant, Career Point (or personal planets) in 10-15 degrees of…

Be True to Your Own Values — Forecast for Feb. 24 – March 1
This week’s headline items: Mercury will remain in its Retrograde phase all week (until March 9th); it’s time to take actions on your New Moon Intentions on Friday; there will be three Moon VoC phases this week: Tuesday morning (for a little over 4.5 hours), Thursday late evening (for a little over 4 hours), and Sunday late morning (for 3.5 hours).
Before we get to this week’s forecast, I have one quick announcement:
Would you like to learn how the planetary movements from mid February – late March are impacting you personally? There is still time to watch my webinar about the current Mercury Retrograde in Pisces (Feb. 16th – March 9th), and the current Mars transit through Capricorn (Feb. 16th – March 30th) — as it relates to your own Birth Chart…

Now, this week’s Forecast…
Monday, Feb. 24th:
Monday, the Moon remains in creative, sensitive Pisces all day. It will journey there until Tuesday afternoon. This Moon placement often finds us more sensitive, intuitive, idealistic and imaginative than normal. We also have a greater capacity for compassion, sympathy and affection for all — but especially for those who suffer or can be regarded as the underdog.
But… that very idealism could also be our downfall at this time: We tend to see the best in everyone and everything, and when reality doesn’t match our idyllic vision, we might feel upset and even victimized by those harsh realities. A way out of this is to channel our idealism into spiritual or creative endeavors.
It’s also a great time for releasing fears — especially the ones based on a sense of separation — and experiencing “oneness”. Feelings tend to flow more freely; as best as you can, let them — in fact, “going with the flow” is the best way to go for the next day.
Monday early afternoon, we’ll likely feel more sensitive, and need to slow down a little. This is a great time for spiritual or creative endeavors. Energy work (or anything that requires our intuitive side) will work best for the next several hours. You may also consider meditating when you get up (and if that’s not your thing right now, you could also consider sleeping in, or taking the first half of the day off 🙂
Monday afternoon, we get an opportunity to be wholly present; also to bring an expansive perspective to our current relationship to self-mastery. This is a great time to be looking for practical advice around our long-term goals. As best as you can, bring a sense of flow and faith to your business dealings, and allow yourself to take it one step at a time.
Monday late evening, an opportune Sun/Mars aspect becomes exact at 9:06pm EST. We started to feel this aspect from last week, Wednesday (Feb. 19th) on; it will remain strong until this Saturday (Feb 29th). Many of us feel an inner joy now — when planning and achieving; now is a good time to link this to our intuition and instincts.
Our self-confidence and self-esteem can get a boost: we feel we can meet life on life’s terms and stand up for ourselves (and our point of view) without becoming hostile or confrontational.
We have to “take” opportunities, and this one is no exception: It requires we take action. What if there was a single, really simple action step, that would feel almost effortless?
Do you have your Ascendant, Career Point (or personal planets) in 3-7 degrees of…

This New Moon chart has a lot of layers and we are definitely dealing with lots of feminine energies for the next four weeks: 4 planets in Pisces (including a Retrograde Mercury), 4 planets in Capricorn, and one planet in Taurus. That’s 9 out of 10 planets in feminine signs, and that doesn’t include the Moon Nodes, which are also in feminine signs (Cancer/Capricorn) 😉
As you can imagine, this invites us to focus on our inner processes, our ability to receive, our connection to intuition, and our desire to contribute to life from a heart centered and grounded place. Our emotional and physical bodies are giving us the information we need right now, to get connected to ourselves and the things we want to contribute out there in the world. If we listen carefully we will also understand much better what pace is required to accomplish things without overwhelming ourselves.
Since Neptune rules Pisces and Saturn rules Capricorn, these two planets play an important role in this New Moon chart. We will talk a little bit about them in a moment. But first, let’s talk about Pisces, to see what this New Moon is all about:
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…

Do you have your Ascendant or any personal planets in 2-7 degrees of Pisces, Virgo, Gemini or Sagittarius? If so, you may feel the effects of this New Moon more strongly for the next 28 days. This is also true for those of us who have our Ascendant or Sun-sign in Leo or Cancer (the Sun rules Leo; the Moon rules Cancer).
The New Moon is also the best time to set some powerful intentions for this month’s Moon cycle. Intentions are best done soon after the New Moon becomes exact — and definitely not during a Moon void of course phase.
So this month, the best time to set intentions would be between 10:32am on Feb. 23rd and 9:12am on Feb. 25th (New York-time)
If you live in a timezone other than EST (US East Coast-time), I recommend you join my Facebook Fan-page or follow me on twitter as I post reminders on Feb. 23rd and 24th throughout the day, and Feb. 25th in the morning, to let you know when it is time to set your intentions 😉

A Part of Being Human — Forecast for Feb. 17th – 23rd
This week’s headline items: the Sun changes signs from Aquarius to Pisces on Tuesday late evening; Mercury’s Station ends on Wednesday (it will remain Retrograde until March 9th); the Balsamic Moon phase begins on Wednesday late morning; the New Moon in Pisces becomes exact on Sunday late morning; there will be three Moon VoC phases this week: Tuesday early morning (for a little over 1.5 hours), Thursday morning (for almost 5.5 hours), and Friday late evening (for 26.5 hours).
Before we get to this week’s forecast, I have one quick announcement:

Star Members: check your email for the link to the mp4-video recording and enjoy watching it! I sent it out on Feb. 9th in the evening;-)
Now, this week’s Forecast…
Monday, Feb. 17th:
Monday, the Moon remains in optimistic, adventurous, truth-seeking Sagittarius all day. It will journey there until Tuesday early 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 morning, we may need to make some adjustments. As best you can, honor both your need for adventure and exploration of life and your need to go within. You may 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 with yourself.
Tuesday, Feb. 18th:
Tuesday, the Moon remains in Sagittarius until…

The Human-Soul Alliance — Forecast for Feb. 10th – 16th
This week’s headline items: Mercury starts to slow down (station) on Thursday, getting ready for its 3-week Retrograde phase, which begins on Sunday evening; the last Quarter Moon in Scorpio becomes exact Saturday late afternoon; Mars changes signs from Sagittarius to Capricorn on Sunday morning.
There will be three Moon VoC phases this week: Tuesday afternoon (for a little over 5 hours), Thursday late afternoon (for almost 3 hours), and Saturday late afternoon (for almost 6 hours).

Now, this week’s Forecast…
Monday, Feb. 10th:
Monday, the Moon remains in detail-oriented, practical Virgo all day. It will journey there until Tuesday early evening. 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 very early morning, a Venus/Chiron alignment in almost 3 degrees of Aries becomes exact at 3:06am EST. We started to feel this aspect from last week, Friday (Feb. 7th) on, it will be strong until Wednesday evening. This alignment reminds us of wounds around relationships or our sense of self-worth. Social situations might feel awkward.
We may experience some triggers, so as best as you can, bring compassion and understanding to yourself, to others, and to those past experiences that wounded you. We need to learn to love ourselves, and heal deep fears of being “not good enough”. Healing happens much faster when we are open to forgiving and embracing ourselves exactly as we are (and are not).
Ask yourself: If I looked at my own limitations through the lens of the human-soul alliance, is it possible that would bring healing to my relationship to my persona — how I present myself to the world — and to my relationships with others?
Do you have your Ascendant, Career Point (or personal planets) in 0-6 degrees of Aries, Libra, Capricorn or Cancer? 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 Taurus or Libra (since Venus is the ruler of Taurus and Libra)
Monday late morning, we seek a balance between head and heart, facts and faith, reason and intuition; if you can achieve that balance, it’s a great day for connecting with others and being of service. We may also want to talk to our pets or engage in more spiritual conversations that can also support our physical well-being.
Monday late evening, we seek a balance between head & heart, facts & faith, reason & intuition. That said, if you can achieve that balance, it’s a great time for…

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 Feb. 9th at 2:33am EST, the Moon opposes the Sun in 20 degrees of Leo — and this month’s Full Moon becomes exact; relationships of all kinds are highlighted.
All Full Moons offer opportunities for us to see things in a new light; they also guide us away from polarization and division, toward balance and integration.
Ask yourself: How far have I come since setting Intentions back on January 24th’s New Moon?
Aquarius represents a unique vision and approach to life. The classic Aquarian vision is one of interconnected equality — paradoxically, we’re reminded at the same time that the power of unity lies in diversity. Leo, on the other hand, is all about our individual self-expression, creativity, our ability to actively connect to the heart, and our inner joy.
This Full Moon is our chance to make a more conscious effort to embrace, integrate, and explore the lighter/higher vibrations of Leo — a courageous, optimistic, and self-expressed sign. Leo represents our capacity to love, and our willpower. It is the quest to live from our center, our core, our truth — with joy in our heart.
This Full Moon reminds us that everyone has the power to make a difference in the world (whether small or large), and when we join together, that power grows exponentially. Ask yourself: How could I best honor both my individual self-expression and my interconnectedness with the world? How am I adding my voice (in small ways and large)?
But first, as with all Full Moons, there’s a shadow side to be discussed — let’s take a look at the shadow of both signs involved in this Full Moon — and please note that the shadow side of any sign is usually not as comfortable to look at or easy to embrace.
Aquarius’s shadow side might show up as…

Do you have your Ascendant (or any personal planets) in 18-22 degrees of Leo, Aquarius, Taurus, or Scorpio? If so, you may feel the effects of this Full Moon more strongly.

This week’s headline items: Mercury continues to move through its pre-Shadow phase all week (in fact, until Feb. 16th) and changes signs from Aquarius to Pisces Monday morning. Venus changes signs from Pisces to Aries on Friday afternoon; the Full Moon in Leo becomes exact on Sunday very early morning.
There will be four Moon VoC phases this week: Monday morning (for a brief minute), Wednesday mid morning (for a little over 4.5 hours), Friday late morning (for 7 hours), and Sunday late morning (for 7.5 hours).

Now, this week’s Forecast…
Monday, Feb. 3rd:
Monday, the Moon remains in steady, peaceful Taurus. Where it will journey until 6:29am EST. 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 at 6:28am EST, we enter a very brief Moon Void of Course (VoC), that lasts for only one minute until 6:29 EST; at that time, the Moon moves into chatty, versatile Gemini, where it will journey until Wednesday afternoon. 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 🙂
Monday at 6:37am EST, Mercury changes signs from freedom-loving, forward-thinking Aquarius to creative, sensitive Pisces. It will journey through Pisces until March 4th. We are moving from the mind into the heart. For these next four weeks we get a chance to communicate with compassion — we see the commonalities between us all, rather than what separates us.
We seem to be connected to Source more easily during this time — if we allow that energy to come through — and our thinking will be very creative, imaginative and intuitive.
The key with this energy is to remain in the “here and now” and open up to a higher vibration. If we can do that, we will be able to download information from an intuitive place, rather than thinking things through. This could also be the reason why our mind is slowing down a bit and why we speak more softly.
Mercury in Pisces also offers us an opportunity to let go of any mental structures, conditionings, or fears that are no longer serving us. If you are not connected to your intuition, you may want to double check with other people, before signing any documents or buying any big-ticket items.
For the next four weeks, ask yourself: Am I ready to connect to my intuition more fully? Could I allow for the unfolding process, trusting my higher Self more fully?
Do you have your Ascendant or Sun-sign in Pisces? If so, you may feel more talkative during this time. Do you have your Ascendant or Sun-sign in Gemini or Virgo? If so, you may need to learn to surrender to a slower pace and connect more fully to your heart and intuition.
Lastly, on Monday late afternoon, an opportune Venus/Saturn aspect becomes exact at 5:01pm EST. We started to feel this aspect build from last week, Saturday on, it will remain strong until this Wednesday. This aspect gives us an opportunity to bring a sense of realism to our relationships, values, and financial affairs: We are more able to see what really needs to be dealt with in those areas and take responsibility for our handling of them. We have a chance to combine compassion and gentleness with realism and maturity.
On a financial level, we have an opportunity to see more clearly when and how we might make long-term investments. There’s no need to rush anything — instead, tune into your intuitive side and think things through carefully and responsibly — do your “due diligence” and stay open-hearted. Remember: an opportunity is not automatically given to us, we have to “take” it.
Do you have your Ascendant, Career Point (or personal planets) in…

Slow Down & Listen — Forecast for Jan. 27th – Feb. 2nd
This week’s headline items: it’s time to take action on our New Moon intentions (from Thursday very early morning on); the first Quarter Moon in Taurus becomes exact on Saturday evening; Mercury enters its pre-Shadow phase in Aquarius on Sunday — and there will be two Moon VoC phases this week: Tuesday evening (for a little over 10.5 hours) and Friday late morning (a little over 9 hours).
Now, this week’s Forecast…
Monday, Jan. 27th:
Monday, the Moon remains in creative, sensitive Pisces all day. It will journey there until Wednesday morning. 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 very early morning, if we are awake at this time, we get an opportunity to be very present, to connect with others and share a new vision about the Earth, or to reinvent how we connect with “the good things in life”. As best as you can, bring a sense of flow and faith to who you are being; allow yourself to intuitively share some progressive, new ideas about what is important to you, and things that could make yours and other people’s life easier on a very practical level.
Monday afternoon, a Venus/Neptune alignment in almost 17 degrees of Pisces becomes exact at 3:00pm EST. We started to feel this aspect from last Friday on, it will be strong until this Thursday. It asks us to dissolve anything that keeps us from opening our hearts more fully. This connection makes us dream of Soul connections with others.
We are highly romantic and may turn a blind eye to “what is”, in pursuit of a fantasy that we want or need to have fulfilled. Beware of anything that sounds too good to be true — whether that’s in connection with people or money — it might indeed be “too good to be true” 😉
On a more positive note, this combination also makes it easier for us to forgive others and ourselves — we can see the divine potential in others and therefore lean towards a compassionate approach.
Ask yourself: What needs my forgiveness and higher love (myself included)? What needs to dissolve or melt away, for my heart to be fully open?
What is my current relationship to the divine? In what ways could my imagination support that relationship? What might happen if I let myself be held by the divine? Might I be able to trust life and its mysterious ways more easily?
Do you have your Ascendant, Career Point (or personal planets) in…

This particular New Moon is also the end of Eclipse season; we have received our consciousness upgrades, and can now move forward with any intentions we set in late December.
With the New Moon in freedom-loving, forward-thinking Aquarius, we have our eye on the future. The highest, lightest vibration of Aquarius gives us the opportunity to see a clear vision for our life — and we are ready to make the relevant 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, rather than separate us from others, or ostracize those who are different from us.
To move even further into that higher, lighter 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?
At a denser Aquarian vibration, we feel like…

Do you have your Ascendant (or any personal planets) in 2-7 degrees of Aquarius, Leo, Taurus, or Scorpio? If so, you may feel the effects of this New Moon more strongly.
Now 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 definitely not during a Moon void of course phase.
So this month, the best time to set intentions would be any time between 4:42pm on Jan. 24th and 2:06pm on Jan. 25th — New York Time/US Eastern Time
If you live in a timezone other than EST (US East Coast-time), and converting time zones isn’t your thing, I suggest joining my Facebook Fan-page and/or following me on Twitter. I will post reminders to let you know when it is time to set your New Moon intentions 😉

This week’s headline items: the Sun changes signs from Capricorn to Aquarius on Monday late morning; the Uranus Station ends (in Taurus) on Thursday; on Friday afternoon, the New Moon in Aquarius becomes exact (ending Eclipse Season); and on Saturday, Chinese New Year begins — we are entering “the Year of the Metal Rat”.
There will be three Moon VoC phases this week: Monday late evening (for a little over 24 hours), Thursday evening (for a little over 11 hours) and Saturday afternoon (for a little over 28.5 hours).
Before we get to this week’s forecast, let me mention two things:
Website issues are resolved! Yay! Thanks for your patience!
Monday, the Moon remains in optimistic, adventurous, truth-seeking Sagittarius all day. It will journey there until Tuesday night/Wednesday 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 — and taking these two influences together, this means we’d rather inspire others to do things our way, as opposed to issuing or obeying orders. Inspiring others could come easier than normal, as we can see the bigger picture, leaving us confident that others will agree with us, once they see what we see.
As best as you can, speak your truth without assuming that everyone is on the same page as you. Improvisation works well for us at this time, as we are spontaneous and love living on the edge — just watch out you aren’t overdoing or overstating things.
Monday early morning, we have the opportunity to connect and collaborate with like-minded people, have an adventure, or simply do something that gets us excited about the future.
Monday late morning, at 9:55am EST, the Sun changes signs from practical, cautious, accomplishment-oriented Capricorn to freedom-loving, forward-thinking and objective Aquarius, where it will journey until February 18th. For the next four weeks, we have advancement and progress in our hearts.
We want to get off the beaten path, leaving behind old and outdated ways of thinking and doing, throwing off personal and social conditioning those restrictions, limitations and inhibitions that may once have felt safe, but now feel constraining.
Our idealism runs strong, but we can have some fixed ideas about how we want to accomplish these ideals although we are open to new ideas in theory, in practice we may actually be quite stubborn. Finally, we are also definitely more aware of the impact each individual has on the whole of society.
All this is especially true if you are a Leo or Aquarius Sun-sign or Rising-sign. As an Aquarius, you will feel a good dose of confidence and playfulness in the next four weeks; as a Leo, you are more objective than usual working towards a vision for the future might be just the thing for you to do.
Monday at 11:46pm EST, we enter a Moon Void of Course (VoC), that lasts for a little over 24 hours until 12:00am EST (Tuesday night/Wednesday very early morning). 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 with yourself — and as always with a Moon VoC, as best as you can, don’t…
