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

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

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

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

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

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

Do you have your Ascendant (or any personal planets) in 9-14 degrees of either Aries, Libra, Capricorn or Cancer? If so, you may feel the effects of this New Moon more strongly. This is also true for those of us who have our Ascendant or Sun-sign in Leo or Cancer (the Sun rules Leo; the Moon rules Cancer).
The New Moon is also the best time to set some intentions for this month’s Moon cycle — this process is especially powerful with the New Moon in Aries — and as always, this is best done soon after the New Moon becomes exact (and definitely not during a Moon void of course).
So this month, we have two opportune times frames for setting intentions: The first one lasts 31.5 hours,between 2:24am on April 1st and 9:51am on April 2nd; the second lasts 13.5 hours,between 12:50pm on April 2nd and 2:24am on April 3rd (as always, all times are EDT- New York time).For more info on setting New Moon Intentions click here
If you live in a timezone other than EDT (US East Coast-time), I recommend you join my Facebook Fan-pageorfollow me on twitter as I post reminders on April 1st throughout the day, on April 2nd in the morning and then again in the afternoon/evening, to let you know when it is the most potent time to set your intentions 😉
This week’s headline items: the Balsamic Moon phase begins in Aquarius late Monday morning; Venus squares the Moon Nodes very early on Wednesday; the New Moon in Aries becomes exact very early on Friday morning.
There will be three Moon VoC phases this week: Monday late morning (for a little over 26 hours); Wednesday night/Thursday very early morning (for almost 3 hours); and Saturday late morning (for 3 hours).
Before we get to this week’s forecast, two quick announcements about upcoming events:
1– On April 8th at 8:30pm ET a 75 min. webinar for EAS (Edmonton Astrology Society) about “Where we can learn about Emotional Maturity in our Birth Chart”. Click here to register for this webinar (once you are at EAS’s events page, scroll down to the bottom of the page to register)
2– On April 16th at 11:30am ET my monthly Forecasting Forum (a 90+ min. webinar) about the upcoming Eclipse season (April 20th – May 26th) & Pluto’s Station/Retrograde phase in 28.5º of Capricorn (April 15th – May 14th, Rx begins on April 29th).

Now, this week’s Forecast…
Monday, March 28th:
Monday, the Moon remains in freedom-loving, forward-thinking Aquarius all day. It will journey there until Tuesday very early morning. The energy of the Aquarian Moon relates to our instinct for improvement. Reactions are more intellectual than emotional; interactions more impersonal than personal. We are likely to have an increased fascination with the new and unusual.
Social gatherings, anything connected with group ideals and goals for the future, brainstorming, new ideas and methods, progress: all these are promoted during the time the Moon moves through Aquarius. Again: we have our eyes on the future — or on outer space 🙂 Personal freedom becomes paramount.
Monday late morning, at 10:11am EDT, we enter a Moon Void of Course (VoC), for a little over 26 hours, until 12:32am EDT (Monday night/Tuesday very early morning). Use this intuitive time to focus on a long-term vision for your communities that involves a mature and realistic approach. As best as you can, take your time, and do your best to come from a place of integrity.
As always with a Moon VoC, as best as you can, don’t start anything brand-new, stick to routine things, or simply go with the flow. You may also want to plan Monday late morning until Tuesday very early morning ahead of time.
Monday late morning, around 11am EDT, the Balsamic Moon phase begins in almost 23º ofAquarius. This lasts until Friday very early morning, when the New Moon in Aries becomes exact (more on that later this week…however, feel free to watch my video on the subject.
We are being asked to slow down and get quiet, so we can listen to our inner sensing/intuition. For some of us, this might be a stretch. As best as you can: stay grounded, take a deep breath, and exhale any tensions. Rather than starting something brand-new, put all that energy into completing existing projects or processes.
This is also a great time for letting go of whatever no longer serves us. What if you could hear the voice of your inner wisdom? What might it be saying?
Monday afternoon, a Venus/Saturn alignment in almost 22 degrees of Aquarius becomes exact at 3:27pm EDT. We started to feel this aspect build from last week, Friday evening (March 25th) on, and it will remain strong until this Thursday evening. This alignment brings a sense of maturity and commitment to our relationships or communities and the things we most value. Relationships feel stable and steady, although feelings are expressed reservedly, formally, or sparingly.
We experience a new sense of realism in existing collaborations. A sense of duty may lead us to sacrifice a personal pleasure to a “cause” or long-term goal.
We are ready to face any problems in relationships that have been swept under the carpet — and they will likely surface. Renewed ties to old friends, business collaborators, or group affiliations are possible — as is a new sense of responsibility in existing relationships. This is not the best time to get involved in a brand-new relationship, collaboration, group, or “good cause”.
Do you have your Ascendant, Career Point (MC), or personal planets in 19-25 degrees of Aquarius, Taurus, Leo, or Scorpio? If so, you will feel the effects of this aspect more strongly than otherwise. This is also true for those of us who have our Ascendant or Sun-sign in Taurus, Libra, or Capricorn (Venus is the ruler of Taurus and Libra; Saturn is the ruler of Capricorn)

This week’s headline items: all week long (and until May 9th), Jupiter and Neptune will be closely aligned in Pisces. The last Quarter Moon in Capricorn becomes exact on Friday very early morning, and Mercury changes signs from Pisces to Aries on Sunday early morning.
PLEASE NOTE: On Sunday (March 27th) at 2am, Daylight Savings Time begins in the UK and Europe, and time zone differences between those areas and the US will revert to the usual gaps — for example, for the UK, it will be the usual 5 hours again between London and New York.
There will be three Moon VoC phases this week: Tuesday early afternoon (for 3 hours); Thursday morning (for 9 hours); and Saturday evening (for 1 hour).
Before we get to this week’s forecast, please know:
If you missed my Forecasting Forum last week, and still would like to learn how to align yourself with the upcoming new spiritual growth cycle, feel free to get the mp4-video presentation “Jupiter-Neptune Alignment in Pisces — A New Spiritual Growth Cycle Begins” — and see how this relates to your own Birth Chart.
The Jupiter-Neptune alignment in Pisces (exact on April 12th, 2022) signifies a new beginning.
It is the beginning of a 13-year spiritual growth cycle
What does spiritual growth signify for you?
Where are you looking to grow spiritually over the next 13 years?
How will this new cycle impact people with planets or points/angles in 21-26º of Pisces, Virgo, Gemini, or Sagittarius?
“Thank you, Sonja. I do learn so much from you all the time, and I definitely learned a lot today! I also love that I can refer back to these webinars via the recordings. Thank you. Thank you. Thank You.” — Audrey V.
Star Members: check your email for the link to the mp4-video recording and enjoy watching it! I sent it out on March 19th in the early evening.
Now, this week’s Forecast…
Monday, March 21st:
Monday, the Moon remains in passionate, all-or-nothing Scorpio all day. It will journey there until Tuesday afternoon. We feel things deeply and have “X-Ray Vision” and “Bullshit-Smelling Abilities”.
Emotional authenticity is extremely important to us at this time; anything less than 100% emotional honesty could be perceived as flat-out dishonest. Once we feel safe trusting someone, we want to merge with them, preferably forever… as long as our trust is never betrayed.
The Moon in Scorpio urges us to uncover our own power. This occurs by a process of subtraction — it urges us to let go of whatever disempowers us. It’s thus an excellent time to look at “old” fears, limiting habits, or emotional attachments, especially those stemming from past traumas.
Moon in Scorpio tends to run right over ambiguity — it’s “in or out”, “with us or against us”, “love me or leave me”. It can therefore be stormy — a cold winter storm, or a torrid tropical storm of passion, depending on how we “work” the energies 🙂
Sunday night/Monday very early morning, a Mercury/Jupiter alignment in almost 19 degrees of Pisces becomes exact at 2:06am EDT. We started to feel this aspect build from last week, Friday night (March 18th) on, and it will remain strong until this Tuesday night. This alignment brings optimism and a tendency to talk and feel things out more; it favors exploring our intuitive world, connection to source, and learning about our ability to feel truly connected to our 6th sense.
We can more readily exercise good judgment, be more philosophical in our thinking, and bring whole-heartedness and compassion to our spiritual or creative endeavors, and connections with animals or beings that need our open heart at this time. There is a sense of mental expansion — we see our interconnectedness with others (and all that is alive) as a source of expansion and spiritual growth.
We are optimistic and enthusiastic, and things tend to go well as a result — it’s all about thinking big and opening our hearts. What if expanding our understanding around intuitive thoughts helped us better understand what it means to be a spirit being experiencing a human existence? What if that expanded understanding showed us how we might grow beyond the illusions of the physical world? What if it showed us how to navigate the physical world in a whole new way? An intuitive, heart-centered way? One that trusted life and our connection to all of life?
Do you have your Ascendant, Career Point (or personal planets) in 15-22 degrees of Pisces, Virgo, Gemini, or Sagittarius? If so, you will feel this alignment quite strongly. This is also true for those of us who have our Ascendant or Sun-sign in Gemini, Virgo, or Sagittarius (Mercury is the ruler of Gemini and Virgo, so those folks will always be affected more strongly by Mercury’s movements and aspects; Jupiter rules Sagittarius)
Monday early evening,an opportune Mars/Chiron aspect becomes exact at 5pm EDT. We started to feel this aspect build from last week, Friday evening (March 18th) on, and it will remain strong until this Thursday evening. This is an opportunity to accept the validity of our anger and desires so that we can learn to express these energies naturally and confidently.
This could also inspire us to make resolutions and take actions towards healing our physical/sexual wounds, as well as any wounds connected to self-identity. The same is true of our affiliations with other people or groups, and our masculine/doing/conquering energies. Remember: this is an “opportunity” — those aren’t necessarily handed to us, we have to make them happen.
Ask yourself: What if I brought understanding, compassion, and a kind approach to my reaction to anger (my own or others)? What if connecting to like-minded people that accepted me and my humanity would bring greater peace and acceptance to my wound around self-identity?
Do you have your Ascendant, Career Point (or personal planets) in 7-15 degrees of Aquarius, Aries, Gemini, or Sagittarius? If so, you will feel this aspect quite strongly. This is also true for those of us who have our Ascendant or Sun-sign in Aries (Mars rules Aries).

This week’s headline items: Late on Thursday morning, Mercury squares the degree of Dec. 4th’s Solar Eclipse; the Full Moon in Virgo becomes exact very early on Friday; the Sun changes signs from Pisces to Aries, Sunday late morning — in the Northern hemisphere, this also marks the Spring Equinox.
PLEASE NOTE: Daylight Saving Time in North America & Canada began very early on Sunday, March 13th; this means I will be posting all astrological alignments and planetary movements in EDT (US-Eastern Daylight Savings Time). Please make sure that you adjust this for your location accordingly. For example, for the UK it will be 4 hours ahead instead of the usual 5 — that is until March 27th 😉
There will be three Moon VoC phases this week: Tuesday morning (for 18 hours); Friday early morning (for almost 3.5 hours); and Sunday morning (for 3 hours).

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