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

Jupiter in Aries helps to create more joy and pleasure in the pursuit of our own personal goals. This process operates on an active level, so any actions we take with a positive attitude and outlook will likely pay off, leaving us feeling more engaged with life and passionate about our goals — and be cautious of immoderation at this time, especially if your natal Jupiter is in Aries as well.
In addition, since Aries also connects to athleticism and fire, we may feel more drawn both towards sporting activities of all kinds, and to spending time near fire (candles, fireplaces, volcanos, bonfires, etc.)
Ask yourself: How does athleticism occur for me? What road might lead to a more passionate engagement with life? What might open up if I became more connected to “I am that I am”? What if I took a 5% more positive attitude towards myself and my personal passions and goals?
Here are some more questions you can work with over the next year: What might promote my independence and me walking my own path? What might do the same for growth around my sexuality and my human identity?
What personal beliefs about my identity am I now ready to explore or go beyond? Could I allow myself to have faith while taking action, even if the current path I am choosing scares me a little? Could I simply allow myself to have a sense of humor about my journey?
What might promote a new personal perspective around what I or others identify with (or as)? What am I aware of right now that would shift my perspective if I allowed myself to “be the change that I want to see in the world”?
How might I become more proactive and enthusiastic around my physical vitality? What creative or passionate goals am I now ready to explore, that support an independent and exciting approach to life?
Collectively, we will probably see the full spectrum of possibilities expressed, high and low — Aries at its best is an enthusiastic energy, vital and passionate; it cares about creating and expressing itself. It has the ability to fearlessly jump into a new adventure and create new avenues (where there were none before).
In its denser, lower vibrations, we could find impulsivity or egotistical attitudes. We may also find impatience, being overly aggressive, getting burned out from doing too much for too long, overestimating our abilities, or experiencing a feeling of being unsupported or agitated, because we are going at a pace that no one else can keep up with.
Beliefs connected to a destructive, dominating masculine energy may not serve us at this time. Thinking we can get away with anything may not be so ideal either. There are always consequences to a Jupiter that has gone rogue — in this life or in the next lol
No matter what we experience on a collective level, if we can trust our own energy, and take enthusiastic actions that make us feel alive, creating as we go, we will reap the rewards of Jupiter.
The motto for Jupiter in Aries might be something like this: What you explore for yourself, inspires others to do the same! What you give to yourself, others will benefit from it in the end.
Jupiter moves through a 12-year cycle, so the last time it traveled through Aries was between early June 2010 and early Sept. 2010, as well as late Jan. 2011 until early June 2011.
And the previous cycles, from most to least recent, were:
Mid Feb. 1999 — late June 1999 & late Oct. 1999 — mid Feb. 2000 Early March 1987 — early March 1988 Mid March 1975 — late March 1976 Early April 1963 — mid April 1964
Think back to any of the above periods that you lived through: what possibilities or opportunities arose for you on a creative, sexual, or personal level? In what ways did you grow? In what ways did you expand your relationship with your own passions & goals? What did you experience in connection with your current human identity? Your ability to be independent and walk your own path?
What felt like a collective new beginning, or a new exploration in 2010/11? In 1999? The other periods listed above? Where did you experience expansion in those years? How could you take that to the next level?
If you were born during any of those periods, you will have a Jupiter Return in 2022 or 2023 — these happen every 12 years and signify a new beginning on our journey towards greater evolution. If this is true for you, as best as you can, plant some new seeds for the next 12 years of your evolutionary journey and set some intentions in connection with the House placement of your natal Jupiter.
Mars will enter Aries on May 24th and align with Jupiter at the end of May 2022. They will be within 5 degrees of each other until June 9th, 2022. With this fiery combo, we are truly ready to make a courageous move. As best as you can, follow your own instincts now; you know better than anyone what’s best for you. Just make sure it’s something that got initiated before May 10th (before Mercury started its Retrograde phase).
After June 3rd, when Mercury has gone direct again, we can revisit anything impulsively begun during the Mercury Retrograde, due to the Mars-Jupiter conjunction lol
After June 3rd, ask yourself: What is asking for massive action on my part at this time? How can I best direct this enormous vitality that I feel?
We are very likely to feel highly competitive and have strong sexual desires at this time as well. Channel this in healthy ways!
As best as you can, also be aware of the denser frequencies of this combo: exploiting situations or people for selfish or unhealthy reasons; putting yourself in dangerous situations (do first, think later attitude); a self-righteous attitude, getting too angry or impatient with yourself or others or doing things that may momentarily give you a sense of excitement and ego-high, but in the long-run may be destructive to you and/or others.
Mid-late June 2022, is an excellent time for study and personal growth. Mercury in Gemini sextiles Jupiter in Aries. If you can, expand your awareness and learn about yourself!
Chiron is also journeying through Aries at this time. Given that Jupiter now moves over the same territory in our charts that Chiron has occupied over the past 4 years, we get an opportunity to connect more enthusiastically to our own healing journey and clear any negative patterns connected to an old childhood wound or lingering ancestral wounds connected to the unbalanced, immature masculine energies.
Jupiter will be within 5 degrees of Chiron from Feb. 10th, 2023 until April 8th, 2023. This connection will be exact in almost 14.5º of Aries on March 11th, 2023.
This is the beginning of a 13-14 year expansive healing cycle. The last time Jupiter and Chiron connected in this way was in 2009 in the sign of Aquarius. The last time those two celestial bodies were conjunct in Aries, was in late February/early March 1976 (exact on March 3rd).
We are invited to look at our long-standing beliefs around our childhood wounds and ancestral wounds and review them to see if we want to continue on this same path or go beyond those conditioned insecurities and see our sensitivities as positive and valuable.
We are invited to step into our courage around our healing process, addressing past wounds and present triggers; if we are seeking relief or healing from a personal crisis or prior wound, this could be a good time to gain a sense of hope and develop a more positive outlook.
We are also invited to courageously accept our enthusiasm for wanting to heal ourselves or heal others — and to bring a new level of understanding to our exploration of the human identity that we have chosen in this lifetime.
We are also invited to do some healing when it comes to our beliefs around our sexual identity, our “personality defects”, or our identification as initiators or doers. Having faith in the healing process is essential.
Ask yourself: What limitations am I aware of when it comes to the “unbalanced immature masculine”? What do I believe about those limitations? What long-held beliefs about myself and my identity am I ready to question? Which of these beliefs were formed as a result of early life experiences?
Our inner wounded masculine energies need to focus on healing and a holistic approach to life. This is how we grow and heal as people over the next 13-14 years.
That said, we might also overdo our desire for independence and healing our personal defects (Jupiter does, after all, represent excess as well 😉
Here are some more questions you could ask yourself in connection with the Jupiter-Chiron alignment in Aries:
What is my relationship to the “divine or sacred masculine”? Have I been able to explore this energy within me? Outside of me? How might I become (or be inspired by) a more heart-centered, holistic, and humble leader out there in the world?
What might be possible for me if I were able to get in touch with my own humanity? My insecurities? My pain? My shame? Could I allow myself to embrace all of myself? What needs my understanding and my compassion about the “conditioned or wounded masculine” in order for me to step more fully into a holistic experience of that energy?
What “old” or new healing modalities could I engage in that would enable me to heal any physical, spiritual, or psychological wounds I have found difficult to heal in the past? Could I allow myself to experiment with something completely new? Could I allow myself to work with other Healers to create greater acceptance for these alternative methods and philosophies?
[/wcm_restrict] All this is especially true if you are a Sagittarius or Aries Sun- or Rising-sign. As a Sagittarius, you will feel a greater need for independence — let’s hope that doesn’t show up as running away from your relationships 🙂 As an Aries, you will most likely feel a greater sense of possibility, together with a need to grow and expand your passions, over the next year (i.e. until May 2023).
Where does Jupiter-in-Aries fall in your own birth chart? What aspects does it make during this transit? How does a wise response to one house support a more fruitful response to the next? What outward opportunities arise as Jupiter interacts with any of your personal planets? Where might you experience a major expansion between now and May 2023? Where are you ready to forge your own path and make a positive impact?

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…

For the next two weeks, we seek balancebetween ourselves (symbolized by Aries), and others (Libra); it’s important here to realize that relationships are essential to our existence, and that they play a crucial role both in defining and achieving our personal goals/desires.
We are also invited to look at the balance of feminine and masculine within ourselves, our relationships, and our world. Ask yourself: Where has feminine and masculine gone out of balance? What happens when there is too much of one? Of both? What about too little?
Aries symbolizes our requirement to be an individual who is free to explore and express themselves; Libra, on the other hand, represents our desire to feel connected, and see both sides of the coin by looking at contrast and comparison.
Ask yourself: Where in my life do I need to be more authentic? Assertive? Understanding and considerate? Who am I being in my relationships? Who am I being in the relationship between me, myself, and I?
The Sun in Aries calls us to look at the roles that “assertion” and “independence” play in our lives. We’re called to find ways to develop a healthy sense of self — and total honesty is crucial here, with ourselves and with others.
The Moon in Libra emphasizes the need for collaboration, objectivity, consideration, equality, balance, justice, etc. As you can tell, the spotlight now swings over to our relationships…
Full Moons also illuminate the shadow side of each sign. The “denser/lower” vibrations of Aries can be rash, impulsive, insensitive, domineering, and (at worst) combative. Connecting with the highest vibration of Libra will help us stay away from the denser vibrations of Aries.
As best as you can, allow the higher vibrations of Aries to shine through — these include courage, openness towards the new, directness, and a healthy sense of identity.
The shadow side of Libra is being insincere, people-pleasing, hesitant, indecisive, co-dependent, and reluctantly giving in to things without protest. Connecting with the highest vibration of Aries will help us stay away from the denser vibrations of Libra.
Here are some of the aspects of this Full Moon chart:
Pluto starts to slow down (station) 24 hours before the Full Moon becomes exact. Pluto’s energy is “louder” because it is moving slower than normal; its energy will be thus exalteduntil May 14th. This reminds us to pay attention to anything that is in our face in connection with this energy.
Ask yourself: Where do I feel “out of control”? What deep-seated fears are coming to the surface? Where am I trying a little too hard to self-protect or control an outcome? What if I surrendered all my fears and trusted the divine power that resides within me?
I also want to mention that we will be covering the Pluto Station and the upcoming Eclipses season in my next Forecasting Forum — so, feel free to join us live, on April 16th at 11:30am ET/4:30pm BST (London-time)!
If you want to ask a question, please email me by April 15th, and if I don’t have it yet, send me a copy of your Birth Chart.
And of course, if you don’t have a birth chart yet, please feel free to watch my free class on “How to read my Birth chart”. At the end of that class, I give you tips on how to get your own birth chart for free online.

Back to the Full Moon chart: Pluto also squares the Full Moon, which makes Pluto the Focus Point of a T-square, inviting us to make some adjustments and find creative ways to work with the energies in play. We may feel an obsession (or tremendous passion) for career achievements and economic autonomy that we can’t fully pursue because of personal or relationship issues.
Since Pluto represents the process of our deepest emotional empowerment or disempowerment, and the place where we are supposed to align with our divine purpose, we may feel concerned about our career goals or economic future — in fact, we could be facing our worst fears right now.
Ask yourself: What am I most scared about when it comes to my accomplishments? Do I fear for my standing in society? Am I allowing myself to hear the deepest calling of my Soul? What if I already had within me precisely that which would most help me merge with that deepest desire? If that were so, what might that be?
Since the empty leg of this T-square lands in Cancer, we are invited to empower ourselves at home, with loved ones, and by focusing on self-care and whatever feels nurturing to our inner baby. This is an invitation to balance our obsessions around an empowered career with our focus on getting plenty of rest, healthy nourishment, and affection.
Ask yourself: What would a powerful approach to self-care look like at home? With family? Elsewhere?
How might nurturing myself support my self-connection? My connection to others? The world at large? How might it support my career ambitions? What if self-care was the first step toward meaningful achievement?
The term “self-soothing” resonates beautifully here. Ask yourself: What does Self-soothing mean to me? What would that look like? How could I nurture myself to the point that I am at once connected to others and yet completely independent?
Saturn makes an exact Square to the Moon Nodes in Taurus-Scorpio, at the time of the Full Moon. We get a major opportunity to stretch and grow in regards to our collective and individual Soul’s Journey! Squares signal turning points that require a shift in perspective.
This places a strong focus on Saturn, indicating that 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 is 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.
Venus (the ruler of Libra & Taurus) currently in Pisces, lines up with Neptune & Jupiter in Pisces, and Venus also sextiles a Mercury/Uranus alignment in Taurus. Let’s unpack that:
The planetary Line-up in Pisces indicates that we connect to our intuitive knowingness and realign with our divine nature and our sixth sense. We tend to “feel” each other on an energetic level now; a sensitive approach is therefore recommended.
Rest as much as possible and/or be in nature as much as you can. Allow the flow of things, trusting that all is well, all of the time!
Ask yourself: What or who do I connect with? Could I be still enough to connect to my heart? My intuition? Might I be able to receive subtle and loving messages if I did? What might support me in trusting, relaxing, and going with the flow?
The combined energies of Venus, Jupiter, and Neptune are highly transformative when channeled into spiritual practice, selfless service, healing, or creative endeavors.
Neptune and Jupiter make an exact conjunctionon April 12th, which starts a new spiritual growth cycle for all of us, collectively and individually speaking. This particular alignment in Pisces only happens every 166 years (the last one was in March 1856), and is a very powerful one, since both, Jupiter & Neptune rule Pisces.
Ask yourself: What was the collective narrative growing up when it comes to “resting”? To being still? Tuning in? Intuition? Inner guidance?
Could I allow myself to release some of those “old” conditioned beliefs and step into a more conscious relationship with the divine? With Intuition? With trusting my inner knowing? Allowing myself to see the perfection of all of life? Its unfolding?
If we don’t channel this energy into something that elevates our spirit and soul we may become restless or anxious.
To get a deeper understanding of this new cycle, feel free to get my webinar: “Jupiter-Neptune Alignment in Pisces — A New Spiritual Growth Cycle Begins”. We look at our own birth charts in this webinar to see where all of this plays out for you personally==> To purchase this webinar, click here.
Venus’ Sextile to the Mercury/Uranus alignment in Taurusis an opportunity to experiment with how we relate to our body and the planet — to do something different or unusual, and to have a dialog about this with others, allowing new ideas to come through. It’s a favorable time for social meetings and events — especially anything spiritual or creative in nature.
Ask yourself: What if the whole Universe was intelligent? What if that included every cell in my body? What knowledge would my body want to share? What can I see as a possibility now, that used to seem impossible before?
Mars (the ruler of Aries) enters Pisces 40 hours before the Full Moon becomes exact.Ask yourself: What simple action step might instill trust in my personal heart connection or connection to the divine? Is there a spiritual process or project that is asking to be put to use?
To sum it all up: This Full Moon highlights the need to balance initiative, courage, and self-reliance with teamwork, consideration, and fairness. The coming months offer some tailwinds that could carry us along to some big breakthroughs; we are invited to learn how to be conscious creators, mindful of how our thinking and our choices affect the collective.
In these challenging times, it’s important to take extra good care of ourselves on all levels: mental, emotional, physical, and spiritual!
As best as you can, be very discerning about anything you listen to, read, and watch. And always remember: Love empowers, fear paralyzes.
Ask yourself: Where am I in or out of balance in my life? Is it possible that when something sounds good but doesn’t feel right, it’s either not “right” for me at this time, or not “right” at all?
This Full Moon shows us that: “We are in the midst of probably the deepest transformation that Earth has had for eons of time….Think how diamonds are formed under tremendous pressure. Grapes are crushed to make wine, olives are pressed to release their precious oil, and seeds grow in darkness. We simply have to trust the process.” — Laura Bushnell

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…

Ask yourself: What limitations am I aware of when it comes to the “traditional masculine”?Can I own that I myself have experienced these limitations within me? Have I experienced these limitations through others?Can I allow myself to feel the pain and shame connected to those experiences?
What role does anger or domination play in the traditional masculine? How do I experience those traits within me? Outside of me? And when? What if, as an experiment in freedom, I let go of my resistance towards them? Even in their “unhealthy” expressions? If that’s a challenging idea, could I give it a try for a single brief moment, right now?
What might be possible for me if I were able to get in touch with my own humanity? My insecurities? My pain? My shame? Could I allow myself to embrace all of me?
Once we have been able to embrace all of that, we come to a place of humility and self-compassion. Healing happens when we can accept our wounds as gifts and not as something we need to fix.
Ask yourself: What is my relationship to the “divine or sacred masculine”? Have I been able to explore this energy within me? Outside of me? What needs my understanding and my compassion about the “conditioned masculine” in order for me to step more fully into a holistic experience of that energy?
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”.
With Chiron so close to the New Moon, we are invited to step into our courage around our healing process, addressing past wounds and present triggers. You might call it the Healing Warrior.
One of the many ways we can demonstrate courage is to allow ourselves to be in the condition of “not knowing” or “beginner’s 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 on my healing journey?
Chiron knows that there is no separation between physical and spiritual, between humanity and the rest of creation; it teaches us that when we help heal someone else, we also help heal ourselves.
Also, part of the Line-up in Aries is Mercury’s involvement with the New Moon and Chiron.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 physical, sexual, and spiritual wounds, allowing ourselves to be human while on our path to wholeness and a larger, more purposeful life.
Ask yourself: In what ways could I be more conscious of my own personal healing journey? And what would I like to share about that with others? Could I give myself permission to be fully human? And show up fully human with other people?To be insecure? Sensitive? Full of desire?
There is no shame in being different, insecure, or sensitive. That said, who says we can’t be assertive and kind — not just with the people we love, but publicly as well? What if the term “sensitive leader” meant “strong leader”? What if only an “unusual hero” could bear unusual gifts?
Our assertiveness and leadership abilities are an important part of who we are — and this can look different for each one of us — if we have been suppressing them, or denying that we have them, this would be a great time to stop 🙂
Ask yourself: How could a shift in perspective around leadership serve me at this time? What gifts might a “sensitive leader” or an “unusual hero” be able to bring to us all at this time?
Since Chiron is in Ariesuntil April 2027 and Mars rules Aries, Mars’ transits through the zodiac are a big part of that healing journey as well.
With Mars currently in Aquarius aligning with Saturn and Venus, this healing journey involves the collective as well, our social interactions and collaborations with other people — and we especially need to see how we can develop ahealthy sense of identity, independence, and willpower within our communities &with like-minded people;it also involves truly taking responsibility for any andall limitations that show up around the traditional masculine in our interactions with others.
As we travel this holistic path, we bring progressively more and more respect to ourselves and others — we are urged to become wise, peaceful warriors, who “stand watch” over the wellbeing of all concerned.
Questions you can ask yourself here: What is the next step toward becoming an increasingly healthy, open-minded, mature, and responsible human? One who is not afraid to pursue unique goals and desires? One who speaks up for what needs healing in our society around the traditional masculine?
One interesting thing to note is that the only aspects besides conjunctions in this New Moon chart are aspects that involve the Moon Nodes (the Moon Nodes encode a tremendous amount of information about the current evolutionary process of humanity).
We will go into more depth on this in our next Forecasting Forum, live on April 16th, when we also talk about the upcoming Eclipse season and Pluto’s Station/Retrograde phase. For more info on that, click here
The Mars-Saturn-Venus alignment in Aquarius squares the Moon Nodes in Taurus-Scorpio. 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 make a difference 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 step into my own power, my own sovereigntymore fully 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?Versus a future I am afraid of?
What role do thoughtful actions 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?
Pluto in Capricorn trines the North Node in Taurus. This trine creates a “mutual support system” when it comes to manifesting something real that fits with our values and long-term goals.
Ask yourself: What fears and attachments could I now release that no longer serve my evolution? The planet’s evolution? Am I willing to let them go, just for now, and just as best as I can?
How might a healthy sense of self-worth, a practice of self-responsibility, and a focus on sustainability help me feel more empowered out there in the world? How might slowing down on a physical level, and taking my time, manifest something out there in the world that can stand the test of time?
Pluto rules the current South Node in Scorpio, which signifies an important part of our current collective and individual Soul’s Journey — and the Moon Nodes also get activated during Eclipses. Pluto also changes direction at the end of April, which makes this transformative planet of empowerment & passion more exalted from April 15th – May 14th.
Again, we will cover all of this during our monthly Forecasting Forum on April 16th. For those of you who are not yet Star Members of my online community, you can take advantage of an Early Bird Special, that will be available until April 13th at midnight EDT.
Jupiter & Neptune in Pisces trine the South Node in Scorpio. This makes it easier for us to release “old” traumas from the past, and find new perspectives that help us be more heart-centered and compassionate with ourselves and others.
Ask yourself: How might a compassionate heart help me surrender my fears in connection to past trauma or disempowerment? What has been in my awareness lately when it comes to such fears? How does a good dose of trust in the unfolding of life & my connection to my divine energy support the process of surrendering my fears?
To sum it all up: The highest expression of the Aries energy comes when we lead others by example and inspiration — they follow because they see our courage, our “human-ness”, our enthusiasm for life, and they want to be a part of that, or follow suit.
Ask yourself: What might open up if, once a day for the next 28 days, I tuned into myself and simply listened to the higher vibrations of my being? What if I dared to lead from a humble, self-compassionate place, exactly as I am?
What if dared to show up responsibly and with all my sensitivities in my various groups or affiliations? What if I were the one who inspired others? Taught compassion in my communities? If that were true, what single, simple action step would I take right now, in support of my own or humanity’s healing process?
As best as you can, be patient and brave — listen to your inner voice and bring your unique, passionate, human Self to the world. Remember that each of us makes this journey in our own way, and in our own time, so focus on yourself — your path, your truth — rather than on what lies beyond your control.
Spring is not just for “spring-cleaning” our dwelling, it’s an excellent time to “cleanse” on all levels, so ask yourself: What changes have already been in the back of my mind for weeks now? What first step looks inviting?
Remember, the ultimate goal of this New Moon is to tap into our inner Healing Warrior — the mature Warrior who understands the human-spirit alliance, rather than the shadow warrior who exploits and destroys — the warrior who is courageous with their own healing process, assertive about forging their own path, who is fully human, rather than “would-be superhuman”.

[/wcm_restrict] 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

On WednesdayOct. 20th, at 10:57am EDT, the Sun opposes the Moon in 27.5 degrees of Aries. The Moon in pioneering, fast-paced Aries makes an opposition to the Sun in harmony-loving, balance-seeking Libra.
Generally, a Full Moon brings our attention to our “emotional body”, increasing our awareness of what has been suppressed or ignored. This is especially true for this particular Full Moon — for much of this month, we are invited to direct our attention toward deeper self-care and more authentic connections to our emotional bodies. If you are a site Member, you may also want to watch my video on the subject.
We also have three exalted planets in this Full Moon chart: Pluto, Jupiter & Mercury. All three of them ended their various Retrograde phases just recently, and are still moving quite slowly trying to get up to their “regular” speed — so we can feel their energies stronger than usual.
The Aries/Libra polarity directs our awareness to the roles we identify with in our various one-on-one relationships — and this Full Moon is thus a call to take action on those roles.
In particular, it brings the focus to “independence”, so ask yourself: Where do I need to be more assertive? More accommodating? Less? Where have I been too independent? Too dependent? What roles or contracts need to be revisited? Or perhaps simply accepted for what they are?
This also involves the balance of feminine and masculine energies within ourselves, our relationships, and our world. Ask: Where have these energies gone out of balance? What happens when there is too much masculine? Too much feminine?
The higher vibrations of Aries include: courage and strength, openness towards the new, directness, assertiveness, and a healthy sense of identity.
The higher vibrations of Libra include: the ability to collaborate and connect on equal footing, and achieve balanced or fair outcomes; our capacity for objectivity, dialogue and diplomacy, cooperation and composure.
Every Full Moon illuminates the shadow side of each sign as well. The “denser/lower” vibrations of Ariescan be…

Every Full Moon illuminates the shadow side of each sign as well. The “denser/lower” vibrations of Aries can be rash, impulsive, insensitive, and, at worst, combative or destructive. The shadow side of Libra is indecisive, superficial, and submissive — always looking for approval.
Connecting with the highest vibration of Aries will help us stay away from the denser vibrations of Libra and vice versa.
Mars (the ruler of Aries) is currently in Libra, and still conjuncts the Sun in Libra, so being active and taking action comes quite easily and naturally with this alignment.
Ask yourself: If I had plenty of energy to take care of something that was dear to my heart, what might that be? Are any new collaborations waiting to be launched? What needs me to initiate or inspire a win-win outcome?
This alignment in Libra makes a Trine to Jupiter in Aquarius (Jupiter is still exalted until Oct. 24th). This combo gives us a positive attitude with others, which helps us to take risks that get us unstuck. We have the vigor to blast through challenges now. Use this aspect to tackle anything that seemed impossible in the past 😉
Ask yourself: Where am I pining for a greater connection with others? What might be possible if I kept inspiring others? Or kept being the change I want to see in the world?
On the day of the Full Moon, the Moon Squares Pluto in Capricorn.This creates a T-Square involving the Full Moon and Mars in Libra —with Pluto as the Focus point of the T-square. This is inviting us to make some adjustments and find creative ways to work with the energies at play. So, what are these energies?
On the one hand, we are aware of the importance of collaboration and “fairness”; on the other, we see that following our inner compass and taking care of our own needs is essential as well.
At the same time, we are also feeling a very strong pull toward deep, emotional authenticity and being truthful about what we want to build long-term — out there in the world.
All this places a lot of stress on Pluto in Capricorn, pressuring us to let go of what is destructive — either to ourselves or to others. Also, Pluto is still exalteduntil Oct. 21st, due to its Station phase. We may feel a stronger need for empowerment, when it comes to our social achievements and career aspirations that we can’t fully pursue, because of personal or relationship/fairness issues.
We are being invited to learn that true power comes from within- from knowing and accepting the truth, by facing the dark, making conscious what has been unconscious.
Since Pluto represents the process of our deepest empowerment (through transformation and integration of Shadow issues), and the place where we align with our divine purpose, we may feel an intense focus on, or obsession about, our long-term goals — in fact, we could be facing our worst fears right now.
Ask yourself: What am I most scared about when it comes to my accomplishments? Am I experiencing a loss of control at this time? Might surrendering my fears around long-term social or economic issues give me a sense of peace?
What if there was a higher power that would ultimately empower everyone who lives full-out from a place of self-responsibility, integration, and whole-heartedness?
Accidents, illness, and deep losses are often orchestrated by our higher self, guiding us to make a journey towards greater authenticity and empowerment.
What feels disempowering? How might being grounded in the present moment and maintaining focus on what “I actually have control over” serve me at this time?
Am I allowing myself to listen to the deepest calling of my Soul? What if I already have within me precisely that which would most help me accomplish what I desire deep down? If that were so, what might that be?
Since Pluto in Capricorn is the most challenged part of this T-Square, the solution lies in the “empty leg” which lands in Cancer. We are invited to empower ourselves at home, with loved ones, and to focus on Self-care. This is also an invitation to balance our obsessions around an empowered career with our focus on getting plenty of rest, healthy nourishment, and affection.
Ask yourself: What would a powerful approach to Self-care look like at home? With family? Elsewhere?
How might nurturing myself support my self-connection? My connection to others? The world at large? How might it support my career ambitions? What if Self-care was a first step toward meaningful achievement?
How could I nurture myself to the point that I am at once connected to others and yet completely independent? What role does inner safety (physical and emotional) play in all of this?
There is also a need to clear repressed emotions, release old patterns, and reclaim the power of the feminine. Ask yourself: Where do I need to challenge the status quo? Where do I need to pull out the sword of truth? Where must I let go of being a victim and reclaim my power?
Venus (the ruler of Libra), currently in Sagittarius, makes a Quincunx to Uranus in Taurus. This aspect operates more on an internal level — an unexpected turn of events could leave us uneasy or unsettled. This could also indicate a certain degree of restlessness and energetic discomfort in our interactions with others.
Ask yourself: If I really worked at it, how flexible could I be for the next two weeks? What needs to shift internally, so I can stay open and aligned with my unique talents, values, and preferences?
Am I feeling particularly uncomfortable with mine or other people’s beliefs at this time? Am I feeling particularly impatient? Do I have certain preferences or perspectives that others are unable to align with? Do I have expectations or attitudes about this?
Mercury in Libra(still exalted until Oct. 23rd) opposes Chiron in Aries andtrines Saturn in Aquarius.
The Opposition to Chiron in Aries has a lot of potential for healing our interactions with others…. We may feel more sensitive and insecure about what we identify with, and around our ability to be assertive.
Ask yourself: What are my sensitivities around self-identity? Where am I limited? What am I feeling most insecure about? What if these feelings and limitations were an invitation to self-compassion, self-acceptance, and understanding?
How might engaging with others in a fair and balanced fashion further heal my self-relationship? How might being more accepting of myself despite (or even including) my self-doubt make me a more compassionate collaborator and ally?
If you feel triggered by someone else (or vice versa), as best as you can, direct compassion and kindness towards both of you. Ask yourself: Is this connected to my past and/or upbringing? What if this were an opportunity to embrace my wounded inner child with love and kindness? What about embracing someone else’s wounded inner child?
Mercury’s Trine to Saturn in Aquarius brings an opportunity for building solid, truthful foundations for our society’s future. We “get to the point”, with no wasted time or words. The reality of our social connections gets clearer and our thought processes are more realistic.
Ask yourself: What works and what doesn’t work in my one-on-one relationships? What seems really clear about my social connections to others at this time?
What needs to be said to create better social structures for humanity’s future — a future that is sustainable? What would it look like to speak my truth and temper it with adult caution and moderation?
To sum it all up, for this Full Moon: The strongest message of this Full Moon remains that of having a healthy relationship with our own inner feminine and masculine energies.
Ask yourself: How well do I love and take care of myself? Where do I still tend to give more than I receive, or withhold, rather than share?
How much have I balanced my inner masculine and feminine sides? What if I already knew how to experience this balance? What if my inner personal sense of it was more valuable than society’s?
We must face our worst fears, own our shadow, and align with our divine mission.
Remember: We are in a critical phase of our spiritual growth, during which we are asked to questions and release all that is holding us back: dysfunctional and restrictive relationships, belief systems, social conditioning, addictions, negative habits and thought patterns, possessions that take up too much of our time and effort, etc. As best as you can, see this as an opportunity — allow, rather than resist 😉
Aries & Libra are both extroverted, social signs — yet Pluto in Capricorn asks us to go deeper within ourselves to understand what fully empowers us in the world at large.
We are invited to integrate split aspects of ourselves. In order to do that, we need to look at our emotional conditioning, and empower the rejected and denied parts of ourselves.
Ask yourself: How do the ways we relate to ourselves and others also reveal how we relate to control, surrender, and trust? What if I placed 5% more focus on my connection to my emotional body and what feels empowering to me?
Keep in mind for the next two weeks: When we get plenty of rest, we can accomplish more, in less time!
If nothing else, do your best to remember that we all signed up for this journey to become a spiritual, fully human adult that exists in an ever-expanding, multidimensional realm of physicality… Not always an easy feat… So, if nothing else works, turn it over to your Higher Power; your Soul Power.
Do your best to remain open, and nurture yourself while digging deeper to truly understand your own emotional needs. This will help you connect to others and yourself from a place of strength and autonomy. For more details on this powerful Full Moon, click here and watch my video on the subject:

On April 11th, at 10:31pm EDT, the Moon aligns with the Sun in 22.5 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.
This New Moon chart has 4 out of 10 planets in Aries, as well as 2 asteroids. This Stellium in Aries consists of Chiron, Mercury, Ceres, the Moon, the Sun, and Venus. This asks us to show courage from our heart, to be unafraid to embrace who we are, and inspire others by forging our own path.
Ask yourself: Where am I being called to take a risk and try something new? What feeds my passions? What is the next step toward becoming an increasingly healthy, strong, curious, and flexible person? One who is not afraid to pursue personal goals and desires? One who speaks up for what needs healing in our society around the traditional masculine?
One of the many ways we can demonstrate courage is to allow ourselves to be in the condition of “not knowing” or “beginner’s 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?
About this Stellium: let’s start with the close alignment between the New Moon and Venus in Aries.
We are invited to actively connect with others and do something enjoyable. Ask yourself: What if I got in touch with my passion for life, just for these next 28 days? What if I could inspire others just by being myself?

The New Moon/Venus alignment in Aries squares Pluto in Capricorn, emphasizing that we are at a turning point — squares pressure us to face our current reality. If everything is working well, we are ready to take a big step forward; if not, we need to change course.
While we cannot always change our outer circumstances, we can always choose how we respond — i.e. what choices we make within those outer circumstances. This aspect in particular urges us to use the next 28 days to empower ourselves and others.
Ask yourself: What could I consciously choose that would align with my heart-energies and passion for life?
What do I observe when I come from fear? How about when I guard or defend my physical, emotional, or mental well-being? Could I give myself permission to open my courageous heart 5% more when I notice any rigidity or tension in my body? How about when I reject someone else’s preferences? Words? Behaviors? What if I could simply pause in that moment? Give myself some space? How might flexibility and an open heart play an important role in that moment?
If I felt fully empowered from within, and absolutely passionate about life, what would I build? What would be truly meaningful to my Soul and to the collective in the long run?
During this time of change, self-care is definitely worth our attention… Make sure you get plenty of rest, affection, water, and healthy nutritious foods 😉
Pluto in Capricorn starts to slow down (station) only 48 hours after the New Moon becomes exact. During its Station phase, Pluto’s energy becomes exalted, and confronts us with whatever still leaves us feeling disempowered around our worldly accomplishments.
This Station phase will last until May 12th; until then, we are asked to hang out with any discomfort this might cause, and observe what comes up. “Awareness” is always the first step towards experiencing a shift of any kind.
Ask yourself: Where do I still experience disempowerment? What do I notice about my reaction to that? Is it at least possible that fears that stem from the past are not here right now? What about fears stemming from the possible futures I imagine? What if I knew for certain that I was going to be ok, no matter the outcome? What needs my conscious awareness? What needs my light?
We will also address the Pluto Station/Retrograde phase in more detail — in relationship with our own birth charts — in our next Forecasting Forum on April 23rd. If you are not yeta Star Member of my online community, feel free to join us by registering for this month only… to do so, click here!
There is also an EARLY BIRD SPECIAL that will be available until April 20th!
The New Moon/Venus alignment also sextiles Jupiter in Aquarius, making this an opportunity for expansive new beginnings that involve our communities or networks so ask yourself: What am I most aware of at this time? What if I took an optimistic approach to the role I play in my various communities? What mental or spiritual growth might be waiting for me? What would “courage” do?
Also part of the Stellium in Aries is the close Chiron/Mercury alignment. 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 physical, sexual, and spiritual wounds, allowing ourselves to be human while on our path to wholeness and a larger, more purposeful life.
Ask yourself: In what ways could I be more conscious of my own personal healing journey? Could I give myself permission to be fully human? To be insecure? Sensitive? Vulnerable? How could a shift in perspective around leadership serve me at this time? What gifts might a “sensitive leader” or an “unusual hero” be able to bring to us all at this time?
There is no shame in being different, insecure, or sensitive. Who says we can’t be assertive and kind — not just with the people we love, but publicly as well? What if the term “sensitive leader” meant “strong leader”? What if only an “unusual hero” could bear unusual gifts?
What role does anger or domination play in the traditional masculine? How do I experience those traits within me? Outside of me? And when? What if, as an experiment in freedom, I let go of my resistance towards them? Even in their “unhealthy” expressions? If that’s a challenging idea, could I give it a try for a single brief moment, right now?
Mars is the ruler of Aries; it’s currently in Gemini sextiling the New Moon, trining Jupiter in Aquarius, and squaring Neptune in Pisces. Let’s unpack that:
The Sextile to the New Moon presents an opportunity to connect with others and share our individual approach, or teach something that we feel passionate about; ask yourself:
Who might need the information I can provide? Who might provide me with the information I need? What needs to be shared or communicated so I can move forward faster?
Mars’ Trine to Jupiter in Aquarius gives us a chance to connect with like-minded people, expand each other’s minds, and share information that allows us to see the bigger picture. Our positive attitude helps us to take risks that get us unstuck, and we have the vigor to blast through challenges, so ask yourself: What could I tackle right now that seemed impossible before?
Mars’ Square to Neptune in Pisces asks us to make some adjustments and do a little stretching and growing around our inner and/or emotional experiences. We tend to either over- or underestimate our own passion and abilities. We look for some vision, ideal, or dream to motivate us or stir our imagination. As best as you can, be gentle with yourself and others, seek to understand before seeking to be understood.
We also tend to feel scattered at this time. Should you observe that in yourself, try asking: What might happen if I slowed down and listened to my intuition instead of aimlessly zooming ahead?
Another thing worth mentioning: Mercury in Aries makes a mutual reception to Mars in Gemini — in other words, these planets are in each other’s signs at the time of the New Moon and therefore “mutually” supporting each other’s agenda. This gives us the opportunity to connect thought and action — we seek out mental stimulation from sharing, teaching, learning, writing, etc. — and want to immediately and courageously share the output.
Allow yourself to be passionate and enthusiastic about any new information you find yourself processing. Rather than rushing into things, stay open to learning, remain curious, and remember that every teacher is also a student and vice versa.
Ask yourself: What if I listened to myself 5% more? What if I had 5% more faith that I’d be heard? What might I discover about my thinking processes and what I am enthusiastic about? What actions can I take based on what I am currently learning?
To sum it all up: Chiron teaches us that there is no separation between the physical and spiritual realm, nor between humanity and the rest of creation; healing happens when we are able to (re)connect to all of who we are, to our humanity, our divinity, and our unity with all life. Ask yourself: Where lies the most direct path towards wholeness? How might directing kindness and compassion towards myself support me on that path?
The highest expression of the Aries energy is expressed when we lead others by example and inspiration — they follow because they see our courage, our enthusiasm for life, and want to be a part of that.
Ask yourself: What might open up if, once a day for the next 28 days, I tuned into myself and simply listened to the higher vibrations of my being?What if dared to lead from the heart exactly as I am? What if I were the one who inspired others? Taught compassion? Connection to the divine? If that were true, what single, simple action step would I take right now in support of my own or someone’s healing process?
As best as you can, be patient and brave — listen to your inner voice and bring your unique, passionate, human Self to the world. Remember that each of us makes this journey in our own way, and in our own time, so focus on yourself — your path, your truth — rather than on what lies beyond your control.

[/wcm_restrict] Do you have your Ascendant (or any personal planets) in 20-25 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 9.5 hours, between 10:31pm on April 11th and 8:06am on April 12th; and the second one lasts 33 hours from 1:44pm on April 12th until 10:31pm on April 13th (as always, all times are EDT). 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 11th in the late evening, on April 12th in the afternoon/evening, and on April 13th throughout the day, to let you know when it is the most potent time to set your intentions 😉

On March 28th at 2:48pm EDT, the Full Moon becomes exact in 8 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 chart has two important emphases: first, it has a line up of planets in Aries – including Chiron — and all oppose the Moon; secondly, Uranus in Taurus quincunxes the Moon while still squaring Saturn in Aquarius! All of this heightens a sense of newness or “beginner’s mind”, but it also creates uncertainty, and emphasizes the “unknown”.
Here is a quote by Charles Eisenstein that fits quite well: “At each junction, we can be aware of what we follow: fear or love, self-preservation or generosity… Every act of compassion, kindness, courage, or generosity heals us from the story of separation…”.
So the question here is: 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 uncertainty?
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 already a Member of my online community, feel free to also watch my Full Moon video here.
On the night of March 27/28th, the Moon enters Libra; this starts the energetic build up towards the Full Moon — and almost 13.5 hours later, the Sun in Aries opposes the Moon in Libra.
Ask yourself: How far have I come with the Intentions I set around March 13th’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…

For the next two weeks, we seek balance between ourselves (symbolized by Aries), and others (Libra); it’s important here to realize that relationships are essential to our existence, and that they play a crucial role both in defining and achieving our personal goals/desires.
We are also invited to look at the balance of feminine and masculine within ourselves, our relationships, and our world. Ask yourself: Where has feminine and masculine gone out of balance? What happens when there is too much of one? Of both? What about too little?
Aries symbolizes our requirement to be an individual who is free to explore and express themselves; Libra, on the other hand, represents our desire to feel connected, and see both sides of the coin by looking at contrast and comparison.
Ask yourself: Where in my life do I need to be more authentic? Assertive? Understanding and considerate? Who am I being in my relationships? Who am I being in the relationship between me, myself, and I?
The Sun in Aries calls us to look at the roles that “assertion” and “independence” play in our lives. We’re called to find ways to develop a healthy sense of self — and total honesty is crucial here, with ourselves and with others.
As best as you can, allow the higher vibrations of Aries to shine through — these include courage, openness towards the new, directness, and a healthy sense of identity. The “denser/lower” vibrations of Aries can be rash, impulsive, insensitive, and (at worst) combative. Connecting with the highest vibration of Libra will help us stay away from the denser vibrations of Aries.
The Moon in Libra emphasizes the need for collaboration, objectivity, consideration, equality, balance, justice, etc. As you can tell, the spotlight now swings over to our relationships…
Here are some of the aspects of this Full Moon chart:
The Moon in Libra quincunxes Uranus in Taurus: we are invited to make some internal adjustments — an unexpected turn of events could leave us uneasy or unsettled. This could also indicate a certain degree of restlessness and energetic discomfort in our interactions with others.
Ask yourself: How flexible could I be for the next two weeks if I really worked at it? What needs to shift internally, so I can stay open and aligned with my unique talents, values, and preferences?
Am I feeling particularly uncomfortable within my one-on-one relationships at this time? Do I have certain preferences that others are unable to align with? Do I have judgments about this? What might become possible if I got 5% more comfortable with being uncomfortable?
Venus (the ruler of Libra & Taurus) currently in Aries, sits on top of the Sun & Chiron in Aries, and they all sextile Saturn in Aquarius, as well as the NorthNode/Mars alignment in Gemini. The Moon, being opposite that planetary line-up in Aries, trines Saturn and the North Node/Mars alignment. Let’s unpack that:
This very tight Sun/Chiron/Venus alignment in Aries creates an opportunity for healing around issues to do with self-identity or the desire to be “The Doer”.
If you identify as “The Doer”, simply ask: What if I wasn’t “the doer”? Would “doing” still be happening? Could I allow my actions to flow from a heart-centered place? And what might that look like?
Becoming aware of old wounds or limitations around the masculine energies is the first step toward healing them. Bringing compassion, self-acceptance, and love to it is the second.
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?
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: What might that process look like for me? Could I give myself 5% more permission to be exactly as I am and as I am not? Once I have practiced that for a while, could I also give others permission to be exactly as they are and as they are not?
How would my relationship to self-love need to shift to give others more freedom to be themselves?
The Sextile to Saturn in Aquarius (also trine to the Moon in Libra) indicates an opportunity to connect responsibly to society and step into our integrity and “inner adult” whenever possible. This is a good time to approach like-minded people or those in our communities (locally and online) for their input. There is also a feeling of flow around a common vision for life.
Ask yourself: In what small ways might I make a difference in humanity’s future? If I dared to make a massive contribution, what might that look like? How could my one-on-one relationships contribute to this contribution?
And last but not least, the Sextile to the North Node/Mars alignment in Gemini (also trine to the Moon in Libra). This invites us to actively bring people together for mutual pleasure and benefit; to collaborate and ask questions.
Ask yourself: What if I connected to myself, then to others, for an exchange of information? How could I personally encourage new approaches and priorities?
Mars (the ruler of Aries) currently in Gemini squares Mercury (the ruler of Gemini) currently in Pisces. This could potentially bring some confusion to our interactions and our communications may be more intuitive than rational. Pay attention when driving, and in general, if possible, don’t let yourself get sidetracked or distracted…
With this combo it is best to allow ourselves to go with the flow and make space for two approaches: a more creative, feminine one, and a direct, masculine one. Observe to see what applies best in each moment, and when in doubt, get quiet, tune in with your feeling body, and listen to your heart.
Ask yourself: What if rushing did not “get me there” faster? Could I allow myself to take a pause when the urge to rush into something comes up? Could I check in with intuition first, before actively sharing or connecting with others?
If you catch yourself feeling impatient, ask yourself: Could I trust the timing of things 5% more in this Now-Moment? What might taking a deep breath do for me right now? Might a thought of “gratitude & thanks” support me in feeling less tense or agitated? Is that at least worth a try, just as an experiment?
I also want to mention here that I am doing an “ASK ME ANYTHING” Special event in my next Forecasting Forum — in fact, I will answer Astrology & Coaching questions, so if you want to be part of this Special event, feel free to join us live, on March 26th at 2pm ET/6pm GMT (London-time)!
If you want to ask a question, please email meby March 25th, and if I don’t have it yet, send me a copy of your Birth Chart (if you have done a Reading or Coaching-Healing session with me in the past, or if you have already emailed me a copy of your chart, I will have it). If none of this applies to you, send me a pdf of your birth chart. And finally, if you don’t have a birth chart yet, please feel free to watch my free class on “How to read my Birth chart”. At the end of that class, I give you tips on how to get your own birth chart for free online.
Back to the Full Moon chart: Mercury also aligns with Neptune in Pisces: we connect to our intuitive knowingness and realign with our divine nature and our sixth sense.
Rest as much as possible and/or be in nature as much as you can. Allow the flow of things, trusting that all is well, all of the time!
Ask yourself: What do I listen to? Could I be still — enough to listen to my heart? My intuition? Might I hear subtle and loving messages if I did? What might support me in trusting, relaxing, and going with the flow, as messages come through from within?
What simple action step might instill confidence in an exploration of my personal heart-mind connection? Is there a mental or spiritual process that is asking to be put to use?
Saturn in Aquarius still squares Uranus (the modern ruler of Aquarius) currently in Taurus (both of them in fixed signs) — we will feel the effects of this Square until July 18th. We get an opportunity to stretch and grow (big time) in regards to our collective and personal individuation process! Squares signal turning points that require a shift in perspective.
Ask yourself: Where do I need to clarify my values? Where do I need to be more flexible and think outside the box?
When thinking about my personal future and that of the collective, could I acknowledge feeling uncomfortable with not knowing? Could I acknowledge feeling uncomfortable with the current amount of uncertainty that I am presented with? Could I acknowledge feeling uncomfortable with the changes that are currently on their way?
To sum it all up: This Full Moon highlights the need to balance initiative, courage, and self-reliance with teamwork, consideration, and fairness. The coming months offer some tailwinds that could carry us along to some big breakthroughs. We are invited to learn how to be conscious creators, mindful of how our thinking and our choices affect the collective.
In these challenging times, it’s important to take extra good care of ourselves on all levels: mental, emotional, physical and spiritual!
As best as you can, be very discerning about anything you listen to, read, and watch. And always remember: Love empowers, fear paralyzes.
Ask yourself: Where am I in or out of balance in my life? Is it possible that when something sounds good but doesn’t feel right, it’s either not “right” for me at this time, or not “right” at all?
Let me finish by repeating that Charles Eisenstein quote: “At each junction, we can be aware of what we follow: fear or love, self-preservation or generosity… Every act of compassion, kindness, courage, or generosity heals us from the story of separation…”.

On Oct. 1st, at 5:05pm EDT,the Sun opposes the Moon in 9 degrees of Aries — the Moon’s entry into Aries on Sept. 30th in the late evening, starts the build up towards this Full Moon. The Moon in pioneering, fast-paced Aries makes an opposition to the Sun in harmony-loving, balance-seeking Libra.
Generally, a Full Moon brings our attention to our “emotional body”, increasing our awareness of what has been suppressed or ignored. This is especially true for this particular Full Moon — for much of this month, we are invited to experiment with new perspectives on self-care, family, feeling at home (or feeling safe), and expanding the exploration of our emotional bodies. If you are a site Member, you may also want to watch my video on the subject here
The Aries/Libra polarity also directs our awareness to the roles we identify with in our various one-on-one relationships — and this Full Moon is thus a call to take action on those roles.
In particular, it brings the focus to healing issues around “independence”, so ask yourself: Where do I notice a wounding around assertiveness? How can I bring compassion to that wound? Do I need to be more accommodating? Less? Where have I been too independent? Too dependent? What roles or contracts need to be healed? Or at least accepted for what they are?
This also involves the balance of feminine and masculine energies within ourselves, our relationships, and our world. Ask: Where have these energies gone out of balance? What happens when there is too much masculine? Too much feminine?
On the day of the Full Moon, the Moon conjuncts Chiron in Aries; this has lots of potential for healing around the “mother archetype” and our past in general. We may feel more sensitive and insecure about what we identify with — and around our ability to be assertive.
Ask yourself: What are my sensitivities when it comes to self-identity? What limits me?What am I feeling most insecure about? What if this feeling was an invitation for self-compassion, self-acceptance, and self-nurturing? How might engaging with myself in that fashion bring me closer to myself? How might being accepting of myself despite (or even including) my self-doubt make me a more compassionate collaborator and ally?
The Sun in Libra quincunxes Uranus in Taurus. This aspect operates more on an internal level — an unexpected turn of events could leave us uneasy or unsettled. This could also indicate…

The Sun in Libra quincunxes Uranus in Taurus. This aspect operates more on an internal level — an unexpected turn of events could leave us uneasy or unsettled. This could also indicate a certain degree of restlessness and energetic discomfort in our interactions with others.
Ask yourself: How flexible could I be for the next two weeks if I really worked at it? What needs to be shifted internally, so I can stay open and aligned with my unique talents, values, and preferences?
Am I feeling particularly uncomfortable within my one-on-one relationships at this time? Do I have certain preferences that others are unable to align with? Do I have judgments about this?
We also have a wide T-Square in this Full Moon chart, involving the Full Moon and Jupiter in Capricorn; Jupiter is the Focus Point of this T-square and is inviting us to make some adjustments and find creative ways to work with the energies at play. So what are these energies?
On the one hand, we are aware of the importance of collaboration and “playing nice”; on the other, we see that following our inner compass and taking care of our own needs is essential as well.
At the same time, we are also feeling a very strong pull to move forward and expand our understanding around what we want to build long-term.
All this places a lot of stress on Jupiter in Capricorn, and Jupiter is still exalted until Oct. 3rd, due to its station phase. We may feel an enthusiasm for social achievements and career explorations that we can’t fully pursue because of personal or relationship issues.
Since Jupiter represents the process of expansion, understanding of the bigger picture, adventure, and exploring new perspectives, we may feel impatient (or overly optimistic) about our career goals — in fact, we could be expanding too fast, if the process is not properly monitored. We are invited to create a healthy shift in our attitude toward career or long-term social issues.
Ask yourself: What might I finally be able to explore? If I listened carefully, what might I hear calling out to me? What do I believe (or simply know) about my long-term goals? About my standing in society? Am I allowing myself to explore new perspectives or merely holding on to old belief systems?
Imagine you have a special lens which showed you the “bigger picture”… ask yourself: What would my career path look like through this lens? What perspective or philosophy would serve me most on this path?
Since the empty leg of this T-square lands in Cancer, we are invited to bring a positive attitude to ourselves at home and with loved ones. We are also invited to balance our optimism around an expansion in career or in our society with our focus on self-care — getting plenty of rest, healthy nourishment, affection, etc.
Ask yourself: What would a new perspective around self-care look like at home? With family? Elsewhere?
How might self-nurturing support my self-connection? My connection to others? The world at large? How might it support my career ambitions? What if self-care was the first step toward grand achievements or career opportunities?
What if I could nurture myself to the point that I am at once connected to others and yet completely independent? What might that look like?
Mars (the ruler of Aries) is currently in its own sign and retrograde, squaring the Jupiter/Pluto/Saturn alignment in Capricorn; all three of those planets in Capricorn are still exalted due to their Station phases, but this is particularly true of Pluto & Saturn, who both change directions and end their respective Retrograde phases within 3 days of the Full Moon being exact.
This is a “stretch” aspect characterized by inner conflict and a maturity process that requires adjustments and flexibility on our part.
On the one hand, Mars in Aries brings a desire to pursue personal goals and move fast; we probably feel impatient about any projects connected to something we feel passionate about (or personally identify with) and want to be physically active (e.g. working out).
On the other hand, Saturn brings up a desire to focus on our long-term goals, taking things one step at a time, while Pluto is urging us to build something solid, lasting, and empowering to us and future generations.
We are also being asked to take a realistic and mature approach to our long-term aspirations, one that also feels empowering to us, and is aligned with our Soul’s Purpose.
Ask yourself: Is it time to live life in moderation? How could I best manage my frustrations? My obsessions? When is the best now moment to slow down a little and catch my breath? What commitments and responsibilities are calling me out of my comfort zone? How could I allow for a direct and courageous approach even if life puts up roadblocks or throws me some curve balls?
What if I simply knew that I could handle whatever shows up? What if I just decided to bring maturity and self-responsibility to my passions and goals, no matter what? What if I practiced daily tapping into the power of the love within?
Since everyone is going through this, society is going through a tremendous transformational process at this time, and each one of us needs to take a look at how we personally want to contribute to that transformation in a meaningful way.
Here’s the question: What if there was a way to honor my desire for a passionate, exciting new beginning on a personal level, while also expanding my perspectives around the longer game for society? What might that look like?
What if this could also be combined with honoring my quest for a socially responsible way of life? And what if that way of life could feel exciting and sustainable for all?
Lastly, something else to consider: We may have a tendency to overdo or over-exert — and our expectations of ourselves and others might be way too high. If we’re going to get tripped up here, it would be because we don’t know when to stop, or say no.
Ask yourself: What might open up if I expected 5% less of myself, just for today? What if I applied that to others too? Might my physical and mental energy levels help me be realistic about how much I can expect of myself right now?
Venus (the ruler of Libra), currently in Leo, makes a Trine to Mars in Aries and a Sextile to the North Node in Gemini. Let’s start with the Trine: We tend to feel passionate, highly creative and energized at this time, with lots of vitality and warmth to share.
Ask yourself: What would it look like to actively bring people together for mutual pleasure and benefit?
There is also a certain amount of flow when it comes to creativity, joyful self-expression, and athletic abilities — if you knew you could accomplish something now with ease, what would you pick?
Now, let’s take a look at the Sextile with the North Node: This aspect gives us a change for enhanced communication and we therefore also have an opportunity to clear up any misunderstandings.
Ask yourself: What would I communicate if I knew that I could have more heartfelt and versatile connections to others?
Neptune in Pisces squares the Moon Nodes in Gemini/Sagittarius, asking us to intuitively connect to our feeling-body and therefore to our higher Self. We are being asked to take a 90-degree turn, slow down, and tune in to our intuitive voice and our compassionate heart.
Ask yourself: What would “tuning in” look like for me at this time? What would “slowing down” and “being present in the now moment” feel like? How might doing those things serve me?
Might some extra alone-time for spiritual contemplation or creative endeavors also be of service to me?
How might understanding the paradoxes of life give me more inner peace? How might a compassionate heart support me with my connections and interactions with others at this time?
Lastly, I would like to mention that, Mercury in Scorpio begins its Station phaseon Oct. 6th, and we will see the start of Mercury’s third Retrograde phase of the year on Oct. 13th.

To sum up for this Full Moon: the strongest message of this Full Moon remains that of having a healthy relationship to our own inner feminine and masculine energies.
Ask yourself: What if I already knew how to experience this balance? What if my inner personal sense of it was more valuable than society’s?
Remember: we are in a critical phase of our spiritual growth, during which we are asked to questions and release all that is holding us back: dysfunctional and restrictive relationships, belief systems, social conditionings, addictions, negative habits and thought patterns, possessions that take up too much of our time and effort, etc. As best as you can, see this an an opportunity — allow, rather than resist 😉
Ask yourself: How do the ways we relate to ourselves and others reveal how we relate to social structures that we operate within?
What if I focused 5% more on my connection to my emotional body and what feels right to me? What if I did the same for my inner roots?
Also keep in mind for the next two weeks: When we get plenty of rest, we can accomplish more, in less time!
If nothing else, do your best to remember that we all signed up for this journey to become a spiritual, fully human adult that exists in an ever-expanding, multidimensional realm of physicality… Not always an easy feat… so, if nothing else works, turn it over to your Higher Power, your Soul Power.
Take a deep breath, and allow yourself to see the irony and paradox of “life” — humor could be a great way to achieve this. If that doesn’t work, do your best to remain open, and nurture yourself while digging deeper to truly understand your own emotional needs. This will help you connect to others and yourself from a place of strength and autonomy.
[/wcm_restrict] All of this is especially true for those of us with personal planets or points in 7-11 degrees of Aries, Libra, Capricorn or Cancer (the personal planets are the Sun, Moon, Mercury, Venus, Mars; personal points are the Ascendant or MC).

On May 10th at 7:22pm EDT, Jupiter changed signs from creative, sensitive, and intuitive Pisces to independent, direct, fast-moving Aries. Its first pass through Aries will last until Oct. 28th, 2022. It will then journey again through Pisces until December of 2022; then Jupiter makes its second move into Aries on Dec. 20th, this time until May 16th, 2023.
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.
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. 
On Oct. 1st, at 5:05pm EDT, the Sun opposes the Moon in 9 degrees of Aries — the Moon’s entry into Aries on Sept. 30th in the late evening, starts the build up towards this Full Moon. The Moon in pioneering, fast-paced Aries makes an opposition to the Sun in harmony-loving, balance-seeking Libra.
