Aries III- 20-29 Degrees
Aries III: 4 of Wands, Lord of Completion
4.10.23 Moon-day Musing
This new cycle of Jupiter, as he begins to depart from Aries and heads towards Taurus, we are preparing our own next phase of life. This phase will ask us for endurance, honesty, compassion, and even a little salt of the earth humility. A fresh Jupiter brings in new faith, generous charity, and expansive optimism. Just as the trees are bearing buds in the northern hemisphere, we open our windows and let the fresh spring air move the stale winter fog.

I want to turn our focus to Mars this week, who got lost a little amongst the Pluto ingress. I think his current ingress into Cancer on the 25th, was a key move in the heavens this month. Mars who has just spent seven months in the air sign of Gemini finally exits the sign of the twins.
Pluto in Aquarius
Pluto is a process-oriented planet, which means wherever it is, it slowly tills the soils, turning it over and over, transforming the landscape, and leaving behind deep, extracted jewels for those treasure seekers.

A New Moon in Aries joining the celebration of Spring’s arrival, renewed perspective and hope emerges.

“The Virgo Full Moon closes out and we get the waning light as we move into the Last Quarter lunar phase on the 14th. Typically waning phases are good for reflection rather than action, this may prove difficult considering other planetary transits occurring simultaneously. This week does not slow down after Saturn’s entrance into Pisces and the Full Moon. There may be a real need for a call of action, but is it a siren’s song? “

Saturn moving into Pisces can bring up themes of sadness, issues around mental health and anxiety, explorations around spirituality, maybe connecting with a mentor or deepening into a philosophy. Saturn in Pisces can teach harder lessons around love, loss and boundaries. It may force us to look deeper into our own hearts and ask what is it we are seeking, and are we receiving? Pisces, the sign of mutable water, swaying more in rhythm with spirit than the mind. With the presence of Saturn, the mind and heart can feel this division, and creating a land bridge between the two is a challenge. Sometimes we need to fall back on poetry, art, music, symbolism when swimming with the zodiacal fishes.

“In your life, reflect on where has the medicine be needed. We have been considering the areas starving for nutrients for some time now, and what places have been oversaturated. Now is the point in the lunar cycle to administer the medicine that can best serve you and assist in establishing a richer root system. “

The cord that binds. It threads itself through humanity and connects us all together, so we don’t loose ourselves, loose our humanity, loose our love.
Mercury in Aquarius
The second decan of Aquarius, is called the Lord of Science. Dissection and rational thinking may just be the perfect antidote to a week that felt there were literally no brakes.
Jeff Buckley, Venus & Neptune
“We are spirits and the whole tension is that we don’t know that we are. Yet music is able to touch this.” -Jeff Buckley and reflections on Neptune and Venus in his birth chart.

A closing Last Quarter Scorpio Moon opens this week. The Moon darkens as she dives in waters that she absorbs more as a toxin than an antidote. She is dying, and so are the intentions that we set at the outset of the New Moon. Death is only transformation. My father always said, “Nothing dies, it is all energy. Energy just takes another shape, it gets recycled.” I like to believe he is now transformed into a dragonfly, fluttering freely in the ether.

Saturn Opposition-A Personal Reflection on a Personal Transit
1.30.23 Moon Tracks
The First Quarter Moon, in the earthy and nourishing fertile grounds of Taurus, started to test the connective tissues that bind us all together. Are we still tending to our gardens, and are we moving slow enough with enough intention to include or exclude what we would like to see flourish. Tissue that isn’t nourished will go necrotic, it lacks any blood flow. Where can we use more circulation of life force!

“Whatever you set out on at the New Moon, I would even suggest at the new year, this First Quarter lunar phase presents steady ground to support you. “

As the Moon moves deeper toward her balsamic phase in Sagittarius, the Sun itself gets blotted out as he meets the Lord of the Underworld, Pluto, by conjunction. This intensification can be felt on a very real, mundane level in Capricorn. The ground under our own feet may feel the burning of these two merging. This is the interplay of light and shadow, what we crave and what we really need, burning obsessions may surface and we may find ourselves either struggling to fight back or fully going in.

In waning light, the Moon in Libra squares off with the Sun. The ruler of this Last Quarter Moon, Venus, squares off with Uranus the same day. What radical love will you show yourself, show others? How can you promote healing from within first to radiate outwards, in attempt to thread the needle that sews the seams of humanity tighter. This is what we disseminate to those around us, the deeper beautiful truths that aren’t always there at first glance, that lurk just under the shadowy fears we project. This is where peace is found.

An exalted Moon in Taurus is an encouraging start to 2023.

A holiday hangover, Luna seeks solitude amongst the masses, looking to gather herself after the parties, the tinsel, the festive frenzy. She finds comfort among Saturn’s high walls even just for a day.
