NEW MOON IN PISCES - MARCH 17, 2018

The New Moon on Saturday, March 17, 2018, will be in the sign of Pisces at 26 degrees.  This degree puts it in the third decant which is a very sensitive and emotional position. 

The New Moon’s energies are ideal for planting seeds for goals that flow easily with the energies of the Piscean Moon.  These goals ideally can be harvested some time down the road (six months is a good harvest time when the Full Moon is in the sign of Pisces).  The energies of this moon related to mysticism and psychic connections (characteristics that come natural for Pisces).  It is also a good time to go deep within to study self and make important self-discoveries so that you can continue your transformations towards a higher level of awareness.

In addition in or around March 23, 2018, Mercury go into retrograde but this reverse motion should not overly affect this New Moon.  Mercury turns retrograde at 17 degrees forming a distant semi-sextile (out of orb but those more individuals who are more sensitive to the energies and will feel this influence) to this lunar positioning.  If, however, you do have other connections to this positioning of Mercury in your chart and you also have connections to this Lunar positioning (allow a 5 degree orb) then perhaps even though New Moons often suggest that it is a good time to begin projects or start something new, it might be advisable that you wait until Mercury goes back to its direct motion on or about April 16, 2018. 

If, however, you do not have Mercury retrograde in your natal chart and you do not have any planets or significant points (Ascendant or Midheaven) close to this degree of Mercury, you can take advantage of the energies at hand to plant your seeds of life.

Transiting Mars is also making a square to this lunar positioning and this combination can suggest strong sexual overtones and sometimes aggressive interaction.  Mars is related to the energy drive and when it makes a square sometimes the energy is inhibited or stifled in some way when it really needs some release.  If you can find creative ways of releasing this energy and push yourself through any adversity that might occur under this square, you should be capable of making great strides in the proper direction.  Remember, however, that there can be powerful emotional ties to this configuration.  The emotions may be strong and unusually difficult to handle.  Use the tools at hand.

At the same time, we have a trine to Jupiter to the lunar positioning in Pisces.  Jupiter always suggests growth and expansion and often produces opportunities and good luck in reaching your objectives.  Jupiter is moving through its retrograde cycle and this suggested that the normal energies of Jupiter are not as enhanced as they would be if it were moving in a direct motion.  Jupiter often helps with situations even when in retrograde motion, however.  Some say that it works in similar fashion to the energies of Saturn when in retrograde which may stimulate you to pursue whatever you are trying to implement with more vigour than you would under different conditions.  You may find that there are some challenges to overcome and obstacles in the way of the project, whatever they might be.  Progress may seem to be slow but that does not mean that you will not meet your target.

Regardless of what energies are in place, you should always follow your dreams.  Without the focus and commitment needed from you, your dreams never have the potential to unfold. 

All the best in creating a wonderful “life garden” which offers a bountiful harvest.

OUR WALK OF LIFE

We are continually awakening to the mysteries that this magnificent journey reveals.  Life is a magical experience, and it is perfectly normal to be in awe as this mystery exposes its wonders.  Some feel the oncoming energies and others lie in wait of what is next, but either way, it is always a blessing to learn the lessons even the more tense ones.

The experience gained through what we define as adversity and through what we accept as serene both enlightenment us.  We can venture forth with little expectation or knowledge of what will unfold.  We live our lives in the moment hopefully aware and appreciative of its splendor and are filled with excitement. 

Does this sound a little over-reactive to you?  Not at all!

When we refocus our attention on the experience without judgement, we see the magic unfold.  These moments that we share with those we love and with those we sometimes find less than desirable to be with are valuable experiences. 

As we move ever closer to our own awakening, we know that nothing is by chance.  Coincidence is a word only for those who are indifferent and who have failed to see the value in an experience.   Nothing is by coincidence. 

We can recognizing our own uniqueness yet accept that we share our lives and our connection with the whole. 

Do not struggle to avoid your life’s lessons (perceived good or bad) – Without them what is our purpose? 

Explore your full potential. 

You are spirit in physical form.  Walk your journey open to all of its lessons.  This is YOURS to experience and share.

PREDICTIVE TOOLS AND TIMERS IN ASTROLOGY

You can never over study the basics of Astrology.  The basics are the foundation of any Astrological practice and the better you understand these fundamentals, the easier it will be when you begin predictive work.

There are different techniques used when deciphering a natal chart and when predicting the energies for the future.  There are numerous types of charts prepared by Astrologers to define the energies for the future (forecasting).  The main two chart types used by most Western Astrologers are “Transits and Progressions” as well as the “Solar Return Chart”.  These two types of charts give the overall picture of how a person’s life is and can unfolding.  These charts can be commissioned for any specific period in time (future or past).

Transits are the current movement of planets through the natal chart.  During the transiting planets movement they will make aspects (angles) to the planets and angles in the natal (birth) chart which activate the potentials that are highlighted in the natal chart.  The outer planets (Saturn, Uranus, Neptune and Pluto) move slowly and therefore will have a profound effect on the birth chart planets and angle’s positions and their unfolding potential energies.  Uranus, Neptune and Pluto while in retrograde motion (the appearance of the planets moving backwards) can have up to a three year effect.  Their energies will strengthen as they approach the direct positioning (exact same degree as the natal planets).  The impact of these planets will have a lasting effect on our psyche and also create profound impacts in our lives.

The inner planets (Mercury, Venus, Mars and Jupiter) move much more quickly and therefore their influence is somewhat fleeting.  However when one of these planets go retrograde during its pass over one of our natal planets or points, the influence will be greater than if it were only in direct motion. 

The transiting Sun, Mars and Uranus can be used to calculate accurate timing, when they set off an already active aspect between an outer planet in transit and a natal planet or point.  Uranus can sometimes be used in pinpointing timing on the exact day when it transits over the natal position.

Progressions also have a profound effect on us, particularly from an internal perspective.  The progressed Sun and the progressed Moon do have powerful impacts and can also be used to evaluate an upcoming event.  The progressed Moon can also be used as a timing device.

Astrology charts can be prepared to determine the areas of life that will be affected, what types of energy will be activated, the duration of the event, the best ways to deal with these energies and whether they are working favourably or may be more challenging. 

It should always be noted, however, that all aspects regardless of our opinion of them (challenging or favourable) can be used constructively and will inspire growth, understanding and life lessons that will be carried forward and which will benefit the individual involved.

DO YOU BELIEVE YOU CAN BE HAPPY?

Our emotions are a hodgepodge of all that we choose to focus on. 

Our beliefs formulated from our past experiences can hold us in their grips, and we, consciously or unconsciously, decided to believe that events form part of who we are.

We identify with events and in so doing, these events feel as though they are a part of us.  In reality, events are only experiences.

We believe we are an accumulation of the events we have experienced but this is not so. 

If a past experience feels uncomfortable, disappointing, or heavy, why would we want to hold on to this and believe that it is a part of us?  Why take on anything that does not make us feel light, happy and/or content (which is our birth right)? 

Why would we not shift our focus to something that is (within this moment)? 

Why would we not want to begin this practice now?

After asking ourselves these questions, if we find that the answers suggest that we are not allowed the expressions of peace, love, forgiveness, etc. or if we feel we are not worthy of these expressions, should we not question where these beliefs are coming from? 

We have the ability to move forward in any direction, at any time, but we have to choose this.

Why would we not choose exactly what is best suited for our advancement and well-earned happiness? 

We deserve and are entitled to contentment and happiness.  Why would we not want to take control of our life’s path and accept contentment without reservations? 

Listen to the little voice within that works with us.  We are entitled to be happy and once we have accept this, we are obligated to spread that happiness by living it!

TRANSITING NEPTUNE TRINE NATAL MARS (March 2018)

During the month of March, 2018 Neptune is 13 and 14 degrees Pisces.  If you natal Mar is in a water sign (Scorpio or Cancer) you will be experiencing a trine between these two planets. 

Neptune while in transit has been known to make life somewhat challenging because of its tendency to make things unclear. 

Neptune has a veil of the mysterious attached to it and as a result, it can be quite alluring.  Neptune is also connected to the mystical and spiritual side of life. 

It is important not to get too carried away with the teachings of Neptune although it can also be quite inspirational.  Make absolute sure that you have one foot planted firmly on the ground during Neptune’s influence.  As fascinating and tempting as its energies might be (especially when connected to Mars which really wants to pursue whatever is in its focus), be sure that you wait until the fog clears before jumping into any situation. 

Neptune can erode away anything that once was once stable and reliable.  Neptune’s influence can take you down many roads of exploration although usually in a very subtle manner.  Quite often, the matters related to the astrological houses involved are subject to illusion and what once was is dissolved and no longer as it used to be. 

Mars has a tendency to push forward with its objectives.  Because this is usually a very selfless maneuver when connected to Neptune, you may find that you are drawn to the underdog and various types of charitable organizations.  This is a great time to dedicate some of your time to the sake of those less fortunate than yourself, even though Mars can be quite “I” oriented.

Since Neptune is connected to the metaphysical and occult teachings, this would be a great time to study these subjects.  You may have a strong drive to find out more and can learn valuable information through meditation, self-study and spirituality.  The avenues of expression are more open than under normal circumstances.  Applying yourself might bring forth great rewards and inspirational experiences into your life.  If this is an area of interest (even if this is something new or foreign to you), this is a fantastic time to open up to the energies that are being presented. 

Remember that this transit could stimulate the energies of Mars for up to 2-3 years and over this extended period, it can produce viable results and interesting experiences.

When calculating the influence of this aspect between transiting Neptune and natal Mars, please allow an orb of influence of up to 5 degrees approaching and 2 degrees separating.  Some individuals who are sensitive to Neptune’s energy may be aware of its influence prior to this orb of degree but most of us will feel Neptune moving out of influence 2 to 3degrees when separating.  It should be noted that we can experience this transit again if transiting Neptune should move into retrograde during its transit (movement through the zodiac).  Also check to see which house(s) Neptune is transiting while in aspect to determine the area of life being affected and also which house your natal Mars is located in.  One final check…..where is natal Neptune in your chart?  This will further define what is taking place in your life during this transit.
