ASTROLOGY SOUND-BITE

Monday and Tuesday (19th & 20th) Mercury, Mars and Saturn conjunct in Aries : crunch time for a lot of scenarios : accepting and recognising the frustrations as they form into obstacles. Or letting them sort out as they will. 

Second week of June brings easier terms or stronger influence on conditions for August.

Some of the most telling opportunities are those we avoid or swerve.  Finding out what you don’t need can reveal more of what you do need.

 

Astrology Sound-Bite .. tenures & bases

Moon in Aquarius squares Venus in Taurus, as Mars grips Aries and waits for Mercury to fact-gather by Thursday. Some awkward situations and difficult exchanges now turn scenarios around, awaiting firmer approval or acknowledgment. Not a time for the overly conventional to prevail against new methods or proposals. Mars and Mercury stand with Saturn by next weekend, on a mission to cut through the rhetoric.. Bases, strong-holds and tenure of all kinds are more secure, while the pace slackens and the tempo is calmer.

Full Moon in Libra ... 2nd April

The full Moon (2nd) is in Libra in a T-square with Sun/Aries and Jupiter/Cancer. … balance, capitulation, compromise and the need for tactical negotiation. 

The problem is with the late-comers and those who want to stand out at any cost. The solutions are with those who can second-guess and those with above average insight. Some projects are complete. But when Mercury enters Aries in two weeks and scouts for Mars, the game of ‘let’s just be present’ upgrades to ‘who can move fastest’. 

 

Spring Equinox - Mercury & Jupiter : old locations, new directions .. or history repeating ..

 

This Spring Equinox: as the Sun enters Aries, and Mercury is direct in Pisces (note-taking archiving for Mars) the overwhelm of the past, for some, gives way to the truer direction of the future. And for others signals the need for returns to lost places and old locations.Jupiter gathers speed and indicates how not to let history repeat itsel

Jupiter Moving Direct in Cancer

Jupiter is direct again in Cancer, as of the 10th. Picking up the slack from August and overcoming the stumbling blocks and delays of November. Moving steadily forward until July. Closing the gaps and exposing false sympathies in situations close to home and in those more impartial. And some of these are deepening and strengthening until the planet grips Leo in July - revealing or highlighting what presently can’t be seen.

Full Moon in Virgo ... integrity & diplomacy compromised

The full moon in Virgo today (3rd) opposes Sun/Pisces as Mars grips Pisces and argues with the Saturn-Neptune conjunction in Aries. While Mercury is still retrograde in Pisces and trines Jupiter/Cancer retrograde. ... 

This full Moon is overwhelmed by Pisces influence.

The lines between integrity and diplomacy are smudged in some situations and compromised in others. Requiring points of fact to be considered independently, or risk being submerged or buried under collectives and lost in time. Venus heads the line-up in Pisces and may divert the focus or smooth the atmosphere - depending on circumstances. Mostly, there is an ‘undisclosed’ vibe in situations where transparency is key.

Mercury/Pisces Retrograde ... in year of the fire horse.

 

Mercury prepares to retrograde in Pisces tomorrow (25th) …  Fogs, mists and anything in between….. until the 20th March when the planet is direct again … absences,, disappearances, lapses, dissolution of things not solid or stable. Reversals, retractions, redactions and the piercing of illusions … as the little planet backs up Saturn on its final entrance into Aries, with Pisces ruler Neptune joining it on March 1st….  If it isn’t nailed down it drifts or tilts, or disintegrates.

Many subjects/circumstances are awaiting authentication from Venus on March 7th  … picking up momentum after the second week of April, in this Chinese year of the fire horse … pace and direction are the keynotes until May.
