SPRING’S ILLUMINATION

Today, Thursday, March 20, 2025 at 5:01 am EDT, we experienced the Spring vernal equinox (Ostra), the balance of light and dark.

 

With spring comes the promise of a new start, rebirth, and renewal. Our world and our lives shed their heavy wintery blanket, and light begins to shine forth. There is a promise of longer, brighter, warmer days.

 

Sprouts will eventually begin to push their way through the soil, trees’ buds will burst, the grass will green, and snowflakes and ice pellets transform to warm raindrops.  There is so much promise.

 

Even without the telltale signs of nature, we know in our heart renewal is coming. Beyond the feelings we experience, in a more intangible way, we see the changes in the shadows, we feel them in the air, we hear them from nature and smell it in the wind; of course, if we take the time to place our focus on these things.

 

Along with this new life springing forth, we experience the ability to have fresh starts in our own lives. This is a time of renewed vigor; it is an awakening so to speak. This can draw us nearer to the warmth and sunshine in our hearts and souls, not just in the world around us. We can mirror and utilize the energy brought on through the change of the seasons to stimulate and push us into our personal pursuits, new or old.

 

A new beginning is at hand with the promise of personal growth, all depending on the seeds we now plant and continue to nurture in the future.

 

This is the time to renew our motivation, to push ahead and find outlets that can help us renew our commitment to ourselves for further growth, expansion, and evolution.

 

Springs seems to afford us the energy to move ahead more willingly in our endeavors, particularly those focuses we allowed to go dormant during the winter when we were more focused on going within to our dark corners.  Now that we have a better understanding of those dark corners, they can now be illuminated by the sun and our own personal light.

 

This renewed vigor can propel us into new-found areas that may not have been available throughout the dark winter. It is truly up to us what we plan to do with this energy and whether we utilize it or whether we just allow it to dissipate.

 

Mirror the seasons. Take advantage of the energies at hand. Move ahead into the new. Reach beyond any limits. The only thing that is holding us back is us. We are our own motivation or our own stagnation. Growth and advancement are at hand.

 

What can be accomplished with these energies?

 

Nature has provided us with hope and renewal through Spring’s illumination. Nature is offering us an example of how we can start something fresh, and have something new to focus on. Nurture the seeds now being planted and see what bounty they will bring forth in the future!

SUN IN ARIES

The Sun moves from the Mutable, Water sign of Pisces into the Cardinal, Fire sign of Aries on March 20, 2025. 

 

Aries is known for wanting to do their own thing and this is true but the reason behind this character trait is they are very certain about what they want to do.  They truly believe in their decision making, even if they need to redo portions or parts of what they have started.

 

Arians love new adventures and want to experience everything that life has to offer and can be relentless in their pursuit of these experiences.  They have a positive methodology and believe in themselves.  Their approach to life is very positive and they have a lot of confidence in their objectives.  They rely primarily on themselves and will admit when they make mistakes. These individuals get right back up when they fall.

 

They are truthful, perhaps almost to a fault, as they speak their minds and saying things as they are.  They are not overly swayed by other’s opinions but will listen to guidance and then forming their own views on whatever information they have gathered. 

 

Aries individuals are enthusiastic about nearly everything and are considered quite fearless in their approach.  Their energy is almost unlimited, and they will tackle anything with great enthusiasm and vigor.  They truly feel that they know what is best, especially when dealing with things that involve them personally.

 

All signs of the Zodiac have their own shortcomings. If we were to examine some of these for Aries, it might be said that they can be somewhat reckless at times and because of this, they must redo things.  They can be a bit too impatient with others. This may be due to their competitiveness and they don’t like being held back or to have to move too slow.  They can be short-tempered mainly because they are a fire sign, as can the other fire signs, Leo and Sagittarius.

 

In general, most Aries individuals believe their own interests come first, largely because they like to help others but realize that in order to do this they must first get their own affairs in order. 

 

Sun in Aries individuals are caring, honest, truth speaking people who are great entrepreneurs and business people. They have insight and the ability to move ahead while others could remain stagnant.  They usually do not worry about making mistakes knowing that sometimes mistakes happen and these are just life lessons that offer new insights.

 

Happy solar return to our Arian readers.

 

Stay tuned to our 20025 forecast for Aries on Monday.

GET TO THE POINT

Many of us choose a roundabout manner or are vague when we are sharing challenging news, sharing a difference of opinion or following up on a difficult decision.  It is not always an easy task letting someone know something that you know will create emotional stress or something they do not want to hear.  We try to break it to them gently but have a difficult time saying it as it is, only because we are concerned about the outcome.

 

In the meantime, many awaiting difficult news truly want you to be honest and say it as it is. Some do not want to engage in challenging conversations or difficult situations but the time has come for this to come to the surface, and you do not have the right to hold back.  It’s uncomfortable but necessary.

 

Holding back or not being direct serves no purpose other than dragging out what needs to surface anyway.  If you are the bearer of bad news, don’t hold back. Share what needs to be said but you can say it with compassion and come from a caring place.

 

Get to the point by compassionately being clear and concise and do not leave anything that needs to be said to the imagination.

NEPTUNE SEXTILE NATAL JUPITER

This article is written in March, 2025. Transiting Neptune is moving into Aries at the end of March. Neptune will remain in Aries until it moves back into Pisces on October 22, 2025.  Neptune returns to Aries in January, 2026 and will then stay in Aries for many years.

 

Pisces, which is normally connected to the spiritual realm, will maneuver its way into the sign of Aries with a real push to find solace in Spirituality and the mystical side of life.  This will now be on a personal basis as Aries is connected to self and the need to move within self-serving enterprises. 

 

Neptune in Pisces, its natural placement, would have opened the door for many who wished to delve deeper into their mystical side.  Now is the time to put all of that training and education into practice.  Much will depend on the placement of transiting Neptune in your natal chart as this will be the area of life that is exposed to these energies.  Also, look at the natal placement of Neptune as well as the aspects it receives in the natal chart as this will provide further important information. 

 

Natal Jupiter and its house placement will speak in terms of expansion and potential growth.  Jupiter often brings with it good fortune, easy flow in obtaining your objectives, and in general, positive energy. 

 

Neptune and Jupiter in sextile to one another, allowing a 3-5° orb of influence, can create opportunities for growth and expansion around spirituality, music, and theatre, especially if the fifth house is part of the process and the psychic realm for those that have an interest in these fields of expression.  I personally use a smaller orb because, although we can feel these energies coming into our lives, the energies become stronger the closer they are to being direct. 

 

Your Jupiter will likely be in the final degrees in the sign of Capricorn or Taurus or in the early degrees of Aquarius or Gemini for this aspect to play a role in your life currently. 

 

Sextiles are opportunity aspects, but in many cases, we will have to work to put these opportunities now entering our lives into action, as without our involvement not much may take hold.  Once again, look to the houses where transiting Neptune is in, the houses where natal Jupiter and natal Neptune are in and the other aspects taking hold to get a full, clear picture of these energies in place now.

 

Neptune sextile natal Jupiter provides a great opportunity for growth if you put in the effort required.  Don’t waste this energy.

LUNAR ECLIPSE MARCH 2025

This post is a continuation of the article posted yesterday, March 12, 2025, focusing on the Full Moon on Friday. www.holmastrology.com/post/virgo-full-moon-2025  It is not only a Full Moon, but also a Lunar Eclipse which is 24° Virgo.  The total Lunar Eclipse locally will begin today at 11:57 pm, be at its maximum on March 14 at 2:58 am and will end 6:00 am lasting approximately six hours.  See https://www.timeanddate.com/eclipse for details in your area.

 

As mentioned in our previous articles, you will have to have planetary links or angles close to this degree for the energies to impact your chart and therefore your life.  The rest of the chart must be delineated as well for a full picture of who everything ties in together.

 

Lunar Eclipses always take place during the Full Moon.  They can be quite emotional in nature. Sometimes what is experienced is completely unexpected and often create endings so that something new can begin.  The energies and events can present themselves in a rather shocking manner, at times, but always takes things forward.  You will not have the opportunity to go back to whatever situation is effects as new beginnings are now at hand.

 

A Lunar Eclipse is known to be three times stronger than traditional Full Moon.  Often, we begin to feel the effects of the eclipse weeks prior to the event. Perhaps you might think that this early recognition may prepare us for what is in the making, but it usually doesn’t. 

 

The events that take place will not be forgotten as they are very important stages in our lives.  Review the house, the sign and other planetary energies to define what is likely to unfold over time.  It can take up to six months for things to completely take place, but many Astrologers agree that the length of time the Lunar Eclipse lasts in hours is the length of time they affect our lives in months and weeks. In this case, about 6 months+.

 

There is an energy that is suggesting things need to change, and they will.  In some cases, what takes hold is out of our hands.  This speaks of major turning points in life, eye-openers and culminations of what has been leading up to this energy. 

 

With this Lunar Eclipse taking place in Virgo (and as mentioned the house will be very important as this will be the area of life affected) we are likely to go through some deep evaluation.  We need to come to a conclusion based on what now has no relevance in our lives.  We will decipher the area of concern in great detail due to the Virgo influence and will try to find the perfect solution.  In some cases, we will over-analyze and never reach a culmination point.  It will be emotional in nature but does not mean that this period in life is a bad thing. 

 

Something needs to change, and this is the energy that will make it happen.  There are valuable lessons being formatted under this influence, and it is wise not to just let things blow over. Do not ignore this energy.  Act accordingly with the energies of the Lunar Eclipse March 2025 or the action may be taken for you.

VIRGO FULL MOON 2025

On March 14, 2025, we will experience a Full Moon in the sign of Virgo at 24°. 

 

Full Moon’s energies are about harvesting our efforts or the completion process of what was begun in the New Moon phase under the same sign (six months earlier).  An orb of 3° influence to any planet or important angle is used to verify if the New or Full Moon’s energies will have an impact in our charts.  Planets or angles within this 3° either by conjunction or opposition will be an important influence.  To a lesser degree, we can also use the Square, Trine and Sextile, but it should be noted that the Conjunction and Opposition have the greatest impact. 

 

In the case of this Virgo Full Moon, you are looking at an influence of between 21° to 27°.

 

A Full Moon in Virgo often has to do with service or in some cases health and our work.  Virgo seeks perfection in whatever it is trying to achieve and now will be the time to reap the rewards of the efforts we put into our objective.  If this influences your chart, you may be goal oriented and have pushed very hard to get recognition and there likely were no shortcuts available in the process. 

 

The houses involved in your astrology chart will define the areas of life involved. 

 

What was brought into motion now becomes visible and will have purpose.

 

The North Node as well as Saturn are within orb of this placement and these transiting influences will reflect what is needed to move ahead.  The North Node has to do with our path moving forward and there are times when other individuals come forward offering their advice especially if you have planets in the natal chart that are in opposition to this placement.  The North Node is at 27° in the sign of Pisces and Saturn is at 22° degrees also in Pisces.

 

The North node is often a favorable placement when in influence, and Saturn implies hard work, so disciplined effort will be a requirement.  Nothing comes easily or without diligent effort, and patience is often being taught in this process.  Some obstacles may be part of this equation due to Saturn’s involvement. The fact that Saturn is in opposition to the Moon may also mean that others stand in the way or at least seem to be in the way of your progress. 

 

They may be there to help the situation, but you may want to do everything yourself.  You may have put a lot of effort into this focus and what they recommend may not suit your intentions.  In some cases, someone who is in a position of authority might be hindering your advancement although working with them might lead to greater results in the long run. 

 

You can reap the rewards under this Virgo Full Moon 2025 if you have put forth the effort necessary around service, health or your work, but you might have to involve others to make it happen.

UPS AND DOWNS

Maneuvering your way through life’s ups and downs takes courage and perseverance.  As you become “accustomed” to life’s lessons, you begin to find ways of to adjust and allow life’s unpredictable moments without great stress.  You become more knowledgeable through experience with these challenges (and uplifting experience) and learned ways to manage.  The experience you gain because of these difficulties helps you with your journey through this life.

 

You seldom truly enjoy the lessons but without them you would not have gained the insight, strength, and abilities you now have.  At some point, you begin to realize that because of these lessons, you can learn future lessons easier as well as help others simply because you have had similar experiences. 

 

When, on the contrary, you go through periods of wonderment and joy, you learn to dance and celebrate.  You are uplifted and enjoy what these events offer.  Some feel that these are rewards for all your hard work and others believe that it is just the road you walk at that moment.  Whatever you believe, appreciate these times and experience them to the fullest.  Life is magical, if you have that attitude.

 

Life has its ups and downs. Trust in the ebb and flow, for it is through this rhythm that you grow and evolve. It is part of the process and creates balance.  Life is a mystery and there is much to experience as you make your way forward.
