Welcome the Mystical
New Moon of Pisces
Welcome to the intuitive and emotional water energy of the
new moon in Pisces that happened on March 1, aligning both Chiron and Neptune
(ruler of Pisces), making the energies even more dreamy, diffuse and
other-worldly. Also on March 1, Mars turns retrograde at 27 Libra 31. Mars rules how we project our ego energy into
the outer world. This period (until May 19) will help us to reevaluate our
methods and their results. A main
challenge with Mars in Libra is in achieving a healthy balance of independence
and dependence in our relationships, along with lessons in conflict
resolution.
The insight of opportunity on how, when or where to create
those changes come as Mars goes retrogrades on Saturday March 1, forcing to
reflection on our goals, looking at what is needs to be completed right now?
What is it you cannot delay any longer? What attitude do you refuse to release?
What responsibilities are you avoiding that will afford change? There are life
deadlines in play right now and whether they involve your personal, spiritual
or professional life, they must be addressed.
The question is how long does one stand on a fence before
making a decision? When are circumstances perfect enough for things to change?
The truth is there are no perfect circumstances, there is no perfect balance,
and the conflict between interdependence and co-dependence is not worth staying
on that fence. If we were perfect, we certainly wouldn't be here. In addition,
the anxiety produced from this ongoing balancing act is exhausting and really
not worth the anxiety, stress and discomfort it engenders? The answers come in
the next few months. They come slowly and piece meal, but they do come.
The first week of the Mars retrograde is about separating
reality from the smoke and mirrors of recent weeks. Then as Spring Equinox
arrives in late March, you see lots of change and movement. It usually takes Mars six weeks to complete
its passage through a sign, but when retrograde, it is six months if you
incorporate all its phases!!! The first direct phase was (December 7, 2013 to
March 1, 2014), then a retrograde phase (March 1 to May 19, 2014), then direct
is May 19, 2014, and, finally, the re-establishment of territory and movement
complete on July 22, 2014 when Mars returns back to its retrograde position. This is an
opportunity for learning and starting action and becoming painfully aware of
when or how you freeze up and get stuck. It is always our own choice because we
have free will. No one else is going to do it for you.
Saturn turns retrograde on March 2, at 23 Scorpio, for the
next five months. This period may call
for re-structuring agreements and projects, or doing more research to provide a
more solid foundation for our plans. On March 6, Jupiter turns direct at 10 Cancer, ending a
retrograde that began on November 6, 2013.
During this period, we have been learning and revising our beliefs about
inner and outer foundations, security issues, home, family and feminine
energy. Now we can move forward with
confidence that our actions and improvements will bring positive results and hope
for new possibilities in the spring and summer months. Also Venus entering charismatic and friendly Aquarius on
March 6th, the air becomes lighter with new ideas and social opportunities will
transform our many months of Venus in Capricorn’s heavy responsible vibes. It’s
time for a little more fun and a lot less stress.
The Full Moon occurs on March 16 at 26 Virgo. It closely
squares the Galactic Center at 27 Sagittarius, giving this lunation more
transformational potential. Virgo traits
emphasize being efficient, pragmatic and health-conscious. Virgo can provide us
with the discernment to avoid negative Pisces traps that include guilt, shame
and playing a victim/martyr role in relationships. Its shadow side includes being overly
critical, exacting and finding flaws.
It is important to know the area of life or placement of the New Moon and the Full Moon in your chart.
