This week’s astrology forecast:

March 2nd – 8th     

Message for the week:

The only challenging aspect this week is the ongoing Mars (the warrior) in an agitating square to revolutionary Uranus, which has led to the unexpected attack on Iran and their retaliatory response. What this will lead to is highly unpredictable with the wild card planet Uranus involved, but like throwing rocks into a hornet’s nest, it is sure to stir up trouble.

This warrior energy is also stirred up in our individual lives and can lead to reckless behavior and the sudden release of pent-up anger or frustration. Monitor your Mars/3rd chakra/power/anger/solar-plexus energy this week to avoid recklessness.

Practice for transmuting anger into self-directed energy.

First, defuse your reactionary tendencies and call your energy back home by letting go of the label, the “why”, you are angry/mad/frustrated to work with the energy directly within yourself. Picture the anger as a dark ball deep in your gut. Picture your heart chakra as a fiery orb of light. Next picture pulling the dark ball of energy up into and through the fiery orb of your heart. See all the darkness burned away and what is left is just pure radiant energy that you can direct as you choose.

On a positive note, if you are able to avoid its reactionary tendencies, this Mars/Uranus energy can be very liberating from habitual routines—awakening the  urge to be more innovative in dealing with life’s challenges.

There is a Full Moon Lunar Eclipse in Virgo Tuesday. This is a South Node eclipse, which always calls for letting go of something from the past. Being in fastidious Virgo, it is a perfect time for a deep spring cleaning and getting rid of clutter—in your environment and in your body and lifestyle. Clear out and clean up, both outwardly and inwardly, is the big message.

Monday: Mars enters compassionate Pisces, softening its warrior energy (thankfully, we could use a bit of softening of the warrior!). The Moon enters Virgo this morning and is ready to forget about the world and focus on the tasks in front of you. With no intervening aspects, this should be a good day for getting things done.

Tuesday: Full Moon Lunar Eclipse in Virgo at 3:38 AM PST sextile to Jupiter. With five signatures in Pisces there is much confusion as to what is going on in the world—the Moon in Virgo is the time to fuhgeddaboudit and clean up your own yard, so to speak. The Moon opposite Mercury this afternoon can create some confusion in communications, when what you hear and what you feel from others can be contrary—listen to both.

Wednesday: An exciting day for relationships with Venus sextile to electrifying Uranus—unexpected love? For existing relationships, this can be a time for new growth and exploring new territory together. The Moon starts the morning in Virgo in a flowing trine to innovative Uranus, bringing fresh insights to problems you’ve been working on.. The Moon moves into relationship-oriented Libra mid-morning and then into a confusing opposition to the Saturn/Neptune conjunction this afternoon, making it difficult to know what is true or not true. Clarity returns as the Moon moves into a supportive trine to Pluto this evening. 

Thursday: There is good reason to be optimistic today, with the Sun in a flowing trine to abundant Jupiter—opportunity is in the air. The Moon is in diplomatic Libra in a square to Jupiter this afternoon, leading to a tendency to go too far in pleasing others. Libra seeks balance, know when you are tipping the scales by giving or doing too much.

Friday: Venus moves into Aries, taking off her sleeping gown and putting on athletic gear and ready for action. A smooth day is in store favoring relationships and cooperative endeavors with the Moon in harmony-seeking Libra through most of the day. The Moon moves into intimacy-seeking Scorpio this evening, favoring deep one-to-one interactions.

Saturday: A little bit of pixie dust in the air today with Venus conjunct enchanting Neptune, excellent for love, romance, music and creativity. The Sun is also conjunct Mercury, energizing communications with vital aliveness. A good day to pursue your desires with the Moon in passionate Scorpio with no disruptive aspects.  

Sunday: Yesterday’s pixie dust gives way to a reality check today with Venus conjunct Saturn, revealing the hard truth of your relationships and what must be worked on to aid them passing the test of time. However, an emotionally rich day is available with Mercury trine to bountiful Jupiter and the Moon in intimate Scorpio trine the Sun/Mercury conjunction.

May the stars be with you!
