March 24-31, 2024

There is a Full Moon Lunar eclipse this week in Libra. This is an opportunity to see what it’s like to find balance when the ground underneath you may feel wobbly. There are a lot of opinions about how eclipses affect us. It certainly depends if you have an angle or a planet at 5 degrees of Libra or in any of the cardinal signs (Aries, Cancer, Capricorn). You may also want to look at your Pisces house, because Venus, the ruler of this eclipse, is traveling through that sign next to Saturn. It’s always helpful to look at what is underneath a strong emotion or after experiencing anything intense, whether deemed good or bad. Venus’s glyph looks like a hand-held mirror. Whatever is happening is a reflection of you. If something comes up that’s harder to digest, there is energy this week to make some changes, as Venus will sextile Uranus on Thursday. I see that as a helpful hand. 

Here is a passage I’d like to offer for anyone who may feel they need a little extra support:

Emergence never happens all at once. It is a slow stepping into the expanded capacity of your next self. You may need practice at releasing in those places you’ve grown accustomed to bracing which, like a tight swaddle, was comforting in its limits. But when the time to remain hidden comes to its natural end, you must begin to inhabit your new dimensionality. Breathe into the fullness of your gaining altitude and consider that what presents itself as fear may actually be exhilaration. As your future approaches you, worry less how it may receive you and say a prayer instead for your becoming approachable.

March 25- Full Moon eclipse in Libra at 5 degrees (and conjunct the South Node). Libra is about weighing and measuring out. It’s about diplomacy and tact. It can go to extremes to find a balance. Are we negotiating a tense disagreement in a relationship? Are we feeling a bit manipulated in some way? Are we stamping our foot in frustration at the unfairness found in connection with another? Eclipses usually bring up some instability. Something is off course. Couple that with the South Node and we may feel like relationships are out of whack. We may want a relationship “cleanse”. What are you tired of? Can no longer withstand? Given that this is a Full Moon what isn’t working or maybe a relationship pattern is on full display. What could be a fair and equitable compromise? The Moon sits with the South Node and stands across from all the other planets, so our needs and security themes could feel like they’re not being met. It could feel like “me” against “them”. If you haven’t been paying attention to your needs, then risk upsetting someone else to tend to yourself. Prioritize yourself then the people who are most meaningful in your life. Flip the script in a relationship if need be. This could be a call to look at your relationship with yourself–what are you accepting in a relationship? Does that reflect how you treat yourself? One last thing, Venus, whiLibrales libra is sitting next to Saturn in this lunation. So there are themes around responsibility, boundaries, and a certain gravitas. Asking the question, “What is mine? What is yours?“ might help.

March 28-Venus in Pisces sextile Uranus in Taurus at 20 degrees. Hold on to your hats. Venus rules the sign of Libra, and after the recent eclipse, we may have some major aha moments or revealing insights. Are you ready to make some radical changes? There could be some new connections or a feeling that some “fresh air” comes in for relationships that have been feeling stale. 

March 29- Moon enters Sagittarius at 3:51 pm EST

**My intention with these weekly astrology reports is something like looking at a weather app. If you know it will rain, you’ll bring an umbrella. Awareness can help us navigate the Astro “weather” too. I  hope to share this information in an easily digestible way (not too much jargon).  Please read this information knowing that these energies can appear in higher or lower forms.
