WHAT WE CAN CONTROL AND WHAT WE CANNOT

There are things in life that are completely out of your control.  They often happen when you are least expecting them.  You might experience a car accident, loss of your job, or on the other side of the coin, get a promotion, receive confirmation that your cancer is in remission and most importantly experiencing peace when you least expected it.

 

Many of us want control over everything but more often than not, we are at the mercy of circumstance.

 

Life happens. Situations change. We can blame ourselves for every event (but why?) and take ownership of things we do not own. Perhaps others are involved and our intentions were deeply wanting to assist, for example, but they had no impact. Have we not all blamed ourselves for someone passing-over because we might have been able to do just one more thing different to change the situation? That is grief. Recognize it as such. Sometimes we can give it our best and things still move in a manner that is anything but what we had hoped for.

 

Step back and look with your eyes and not your heart. Many life situations are out of our hands. Each of these events and hardships have lessons for us, however.  Is that lesson “to experience and let go”?

 

Learning the difference between what we can control and what we cannot control can be a difficult lesson. Do your best. Acknowledge you are human. Acceptance can be a beautiful thing when appropriate and bring needed relief.

IT’S ALL OR NOTHING

There are times you just have to go for it.

 

You have spent countless hours contemplating and now you realize that the moment has come for you to advance.  You feel it. It IS the time.

 

Give it your all and don’t back off, not even for a moment.

 

For each of us, this focus will be a different one. No matter what the focus, push through any adversity and forge ahead.

 

You may have been waiting for a long time, and something has held you back.  Was it fear?

 

Do not step on others to get there. Karma is real. This is not about revenge or getting even, life looks after that. It’s about just reward, doing the right thing, and letting life take you to where you are supposed to be.

 

Fear can hold you back, but do not let it!

 

Move forward armed with information, with positivity and the best intensions. You can do this with or without assistance.

 

Who will benefit?

 

Take care of yourself but if you can incorporate benefits for others, that is much more rewarding.  Listen to your intuition. Step forward with hope and compassion.

 

It is important to pursue your dreams and goals. Are you ready? Get set……go! It’s all or nothing. Give it your all and reap the rewards.

LIBRA FULL MOON 2026

A Full Moon, as many of you are aware, is the culmination of goals or energy put in place some six months ago when we had our New Moon in the same sign.  This Full Moon is in the sign of Libra, the sign of the scales, is linked to relationships of significance in this life.  April 2, the Libra Full Moon will at 12° degrees.

 

During this full moon, using an orb of no more than 3° degrees, it will form a Square to the planet Jupiter which is at 15° degrees in the sign of Cancer.

 

Since Cancer and Libra are both signs that have to do with family and the relationships with them, this is likely tied to members of our family if the Full Moon is making contact in our Astrology chart.  For example, this can include your parents, your spouse and/or your children, if the fifth house is part of the picture. It will affect your relationship with co-workers if the sixth house is involved, and with friends if the eleventh house is part of the picture. 

 

Cancer (Jupiter’s current sign) is an emotionally driven sign, and Libra (the Moon’s current sign) wants to create peace, balance and fairness including justice when necessary.  If there are wrongdoings, the feelings will run deep. If there has been injustice, there is a need to rectify the situation.  All comes out in the wash as they say. You have to put things into the washing machine before they can come out clean. The residue of the dirt that might have surfaced needs to be cleared away.

 

This will most likely, as mentioned, be about relationships.  With Jupiter being part of the process and having been in place for some time, things or these energies will likely have reached a peak. Although the situations are heightened, because of the influence of the great benefactor, Jupiter, you should be able to work things out for the best, if you do what must be done to make things right.

 

Libra suggests you use diplomacy and bring about the balance that is required.  Be the judge but try not to make too many judgements.  Libra always looks at both sides of the situation and will work hard on either side of the coin to bring about favorable outcomes. 

 

There is potential here, but it will take work. Square aspects force you into action, because you want resolution.  Do your best. If it is personal, practice forgiveness. If it is not personal, do not take on the energies of others. It serves no purpose other than to create anxiety to be emotionally involved in something that is not yours to own. 

 

This Libra Full Moon 2026 will certainly involve relationships and emotions will be amplified.  Find peace, balance, fairness and even justice where necessary.

HOLD ON TO GRIEF

When we lose someone close to us, it can be hard to move forward. Our “normal” no longer exists. The calendar days may pass by, but the emotional pain can remain. There is no right way or length of time to grieve but there can be emotionally healthier choices to be made.

 

Some will show no signs of grief possibly from denial or avoidance while others can be frozen in grief.  Some hold on to grief and the pain they are experiencing because it makes them feel as though, somehow, they are staying close to their lost loved one.

 

Grieving is not a linear process and can be just as much physical as it is emotional.  Be gentle with yourself and allow yourself to mourn your loss. 

 

The mourning process is a time to feel and process our loss but to also adjust to our new “normal” which moves forward without the physical presence of our lost loved one.  The five steps of grief are denial (hope), anger (pointing blame), bargaining (you can’t change places), depression (processing the loss) and acceptance (moving forward in a new way).  The lines between these stages are not defined and can be blurred regularly.

 

Some individuals can become stuck in any stage of grief. It is hard to be rational when we are engulfed in grief.  We can find ourselves asking questions such as, “Was it something I did?”, “What could I have done to change things?”, “Someone is to blame?”, “Why am I being punished?”, “Why wasn’t it me?” and the list goes on.

 

Some may push their pain on to others as they do not want to suffer alone, consciously or unconsciously. They take their anger out on the ones they love the most or put up walls to keep others away.

 

It’s hard to realize, in our depression, that those around us are also affected. We can be very hard on the ones we love the most. They too are grieving their own loss too. Their loss may be connected to your loved one directly or it may be their having to watch you suffering and your loss of participation in their lives. 

 

Most times, there are no specific reasons for what happens in life.  We can be sideswiped by events.  These experiences can seem very unfair.  On the other hand, we may be expecting the loss, knowing that it is coming but when it actually happens, you are not prepared though you thought you would be.

 

Accept that we cannot change the past, but we can certainly learn from the experiences.

 

No matter what the circumstances around the event, we must make our way through the grieving process. Take the time you need to experience and process but do not live in the past.  Live in the moment.

 

It is sad to let go and move forward without those you have created this life with. Do not hold on to grief. How wonderful that you have had the opportunity to enjoy and experience life with them, no matter what that length of time may have been.  Celebrate what they shared with you. Thank them for the journey you shared but continue with yours moving forward, in their honour.  Would they not want this?

NEPTUNE SEXTILE NATAL ASCENDANT

When Transiting Neptune is sextile your natal Ascendant, it is also making a trine to your natal Descendant.  This suggests that there are opportunities for self-examination which can bring about major changes to how you represent yourself. At the same time, it can bring about opportunities and likely easy flow when it comes to relationships that are an important part of your life, especially your partner and any business partnership that you currently have. 

 

The transformations that are taking hold with these important people will be quite favorable, partly because you now can bring to the surface anything that has been hidden or has not been seen clearly in the past.  You are more open to hidden agendas, and your intuition is heightened.  You can now deal more openly because you instinctively understand things on a clearer level.  You are also much more sensitive to what others are feeling and can trust the voice within for guidance, for helping others and yourself because you want to nurture.

 

The changes that can now surface, especially with the way you represent yourself, may go through a metamorphosis by examining any deep-seated feelings about yourself.  You can let kindness begin to surface and you are more caring and sensitive to life’s situations.  You can interact with more compassion and selfless service for others, especially for the underdog. 

 

The psychic realms and spiritual awareness now become more evident.  You can become more involved in these areas, and under this aspect, many do.  The door is now open to such avenues.

 

Because the Ascendant plays a big role in health, this is the time to take greater care of your body.  Exercise and proper eating habits should be practiced.  Under this aspect, it is the time to make changes to your body if your body requires healthy changes.  Looking after yourself might come more easily. 

 

Anything in life that appears to be threatening in any manner should now be avoided, as you are more receptive. 

 

Be gentle with yourself, don’t overwork your body and treat it as a valued friend that you want beside you for a long time. 

 

Transiting Neptune sextile natal Ascendant brings about self-examination and then self-care. Listen to your instincts and embrace the kinder more compassionate you.

HOLD FAST AND STRONG

Hold fast and strong applies to many of life’s important ventures and turning points.  Much will depend on the current situation and the environment within which this can all takes place. 

 

All important decisions are based on your intensions, and these decisions can affect your life from this day forward.

 

Relationships can be a perfect example. There may be various reasons for a relationship to be in question.  On the positive side, is a marriage proposal a potential? This can change your life in many ways, some for the better, some quite reasonable and some may be concerning.

 

On the other hand, your relationship may not be working, which also can be for many reasons.  Is the relationship worth the work to repair it? If the pros outweigh the cons, then start doing the work.  What might be the first step in this repair journey?

 

In all situations and scenarios, it is important to reconsider what it is that may unfold as you make plan and make these important decisions. We cannot cover every scenario that may present itself, but we must decide based on the information we have at hand.  All decisions can be life-changing. 

 

Release fear as it can freeze you into inactivity. This is not living; it is existing. As in all life decisions, it is up to you which steps you take. You never truly know where that step may take you.  Make your decision based on what you know after doing your due diligence.  Once the decision has been made, hold fast and strong and take that step. Don’t give in or give up!

IT’S SPRING

On March 20, 2026, at 10:46 a.m. EDT, we will experience the Spring vernal equinox (Ostara). The Spring equinox is when the Sun is exactly above the Equator and day and night are equal lengths--the balance of light and dark.

 

Spring brings with it the promise of a fresh start and renewal. Our world and our lives begin to shed their wintery blanket and light shines forth.

 

Eventually, sprouts will begin to push their way through the soil, trees will bud, the grass will green, snowflakes transform to raindrops and there is the promise of flowers, colour, new life, etc. 

 

Even without the telltale signs of nature, we know in our heart renewal is coming. Beyond these internal feeling, in a more intangible way, we see the change in the shadows, we feel it in the air, we hear it in nature and smell it in the wind, if we take the time to focus on these things.

 

Along with this new life springing forth in nature, there is the ability to have fresh starts in our own lives. Follow the example of nature. This is a time of renewed vigor, an awakening if you will. This can draw us nearer to the promise of warmth and sunshine in our hearts and souls, not just in nature. We can mirror and utilize the energy brought on through the change of the season to stimulate and push us in our pursuits, new or old.

 

A new beginning is at hand with the promise of personal growth depending on the seeds we now sow.

 

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 that we had allowed (as we should) to sleep during the winter.

 

We have hopefully done our shadow work over the winter, looking into our own personal shadows to understand self more clearly.  Now we can shine our light brightly in these corners due to our understanding.  Replace the darkness with light and hope.

 

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

 

Mirror the season and take advantage of the energies at hand. Move ahead into the new. Reach beyond any limits. Step out of the shadows. The only thing holding us back is us. We are our own motivation or our own stagnation. Growth and advancement are a choice.

 

What can be accomplished with these energies? Nature is offering us something fresh and new to focus on. Nature is providing us with hope and renewal. It’s Spring! Plant seeds of promise and nurture them!

CREATE PEACE

We ask ourselves, “Can waging war deter aggression?”

 

If we look back in history, often aggression worsens conditions in many ways. 

 

What is the physical, emotional, mental and material cost of war for both sides?

 

Without concentrating on these losses already mentioned, generational grudges, hatred and further violence are usually the aftermath of war. 

 

Attacks on foreign soil and retaliation will increase, and if finance is high on your radar, worldwide trade and commerce will suffer.

 

All possibilities must be weighed out and in some cases no matter what we do to create peace, peace seems to evade us. 

 

We all have our limits, and we all must make choices. 

 

No one can truly speak personally for you.

 

Let’s all strive for personal peace.  Let’s work to create peace in each of our relationships. Peace demands give and take. You will find the solution for your own inner peace if you take the time to truly want peace.  You have what it takes.  Let’s hope that our leaders do too!
