Lunations and Long-term Aspects

The New Moon this month on March 11 is in Pisces, your 6th house of work, service, health and pets, so watch for something new to show up in one of those areas. I would think that you are seeing all sorts of interesting happenings in this part of your life considering the entourage of planets accompanying this lunation. They include Neptune, Mercury, your sign ruler, Venus and Mars as well as the asteroid, Chiron, a.k.a. "the wounded healer," bringing quite a variety of energies concentrated in a relatively small space. Pisces is a quincunx away from Libra, an aspect that tends to demand an adjustment or change of course due to its somewhat unstable nature. This could be good, bad or indifferent, depending on how they connect with your natal Sun and other planets in your chart.

Neptune, ruler of Pisces and thus in dignity and quite comfortable there, will be in residence for a long time. Neptune rules such things as liquids of all varieties, whether its perfume or oil, the movie industry, photography, the maritime industry, drugs and other dimensions. Delusions, deception and illusions are also part of his domain, any of which may show up as relevant with regard to your job, especially those of you born right around September 26. Those born after that time will eventually get your turn as he proceeds through that sign.

Mercury is much less comfortable in Pisces which is the sign of his debility and fall, self-explanatory descriptions of how he operates there. As the ruler of communications and movement Mercury loves clear, concise, data driven conversations which are antithetical to a dreamy Water Sign like Pisces. He is already lost in space, so to speak, and when you add being retrograde on top of that you may as well figure that he's on vacation somewhere in the Bahamas or South Pacific. Confusion and a general brain fog are likely to reign until he goes into Aries in mid-April. Those of you born around September 30 will be particularly affected by that as well as those of you born around October 12, since he stationed retrograde in a degree that aspects your natal Sun. As an Air Sign you prefer clear communications so it's important to understand why everything is likely to be honked up. This is a time to learn to use and sharpen other means of communication such as observing body language, accessing your intuition and paying attention to those gut feelings.

Your sign ruler, Venus, is delighted to be in Pisces, sign of her exaltation. The dreamy, compassionate environment suits her just fine but isn't exactly that much of an asset in your 6th house of work. In other words, people are likely to be pleasant but not necessarily operating on all cylinders and you may be one of them. Caring about anything other than the appearance of your desk and the happiness of those around you isn't likely with any future consequences easily ignored in the general fog. The inspirational nature of Neptune may be of benefit over the long-term by escaping through your work in some sense or perhaps discovering what you really want to be when you grow up.

Mars in Pisces could be best described as having the warrior god on a life raft in the ocean while a battle rages on shore. He wants to do something but doesn't know what or how. This will end shortly, however, since he will be in his home sign of Aries within a few days and hit the ground running. Those most closely connected with Mars will be those born around October 23. While in Pisces, considering all that other energy there as well, much less Mercury retrograde, not acting on something is probably a good thing since it may not be based on solid, logical thinking. This is not always a bad thing but depends on the circumstances. This New Moon seems to be all about contemplation, meditation, inspiration and compassion and isn't necessarily the time for action, which will come soon enough when the better part of that planetary parade moves into Aries.

This month Uranus opposes your natal Sun from your polar sign, Aries, if your birthday is right around September 29 - October 4. Surprises and disruptions associated with one or more relationships may become commonplace as he transits that sign but especially when he opposes your Sun or other planet. As modern ruler of your 5th house it could also relate to your children, romance, speculation or even a lot of spontaneous parties, so it won't necessarily be a bad thing, just a bit disruptive to existing plans. If your birthday is right around October 5th Pluto is squaring your natal Sun which isn't always exactly what you would call a cake-walk. This can be a time when you're haunted by your distant past or encounter various problems at home, not necessarily involving people but such things as plumbing or foundation issues with your home itself. If you live in an apartment you could get invaded by cockroaches or some other issue that is mostly out of sight but represents some form of corruption which has been hidden. Pluto is currently sextile as well as in mutual reception with Saturn who is retrograde in your 2nd house of income, possessions, values, needs and pleasures. Saturn retrograde is all about rebuilding or restructuring something whether it's your budget or getting enough rest or affection. These will be tied to Pluto in some way, such as recognizing that you're a workaholic because of how you were raised or that you spend too much money trying to impress others because that is what your parents did.

The Full Moon on March 27 is in your sign and on your natal Sun if your birthday is right around September 29. This will usually bring an ending, culmination or shift to a new phase of something that affects your personally. It is also a time to end a bad habit or start a good one. By this time Venus and Mars as well as the Sun have moved into Aries, your 7th house of relationships. Venus is conjunct the Sun for the lunation which has interesting implications. Putting your heart into your relationships is one possibility or perhaps somewhat the opposite, i.e. asserting yourself with regard to what you want or need from others, something that Libras often have difficulty doing. With Uranus there, surprises are possible, and Mars suggests lots of activity which could change how you see the world in some positive way. This could be the logical action which follows what you discovered during the time all those planets were in Pisces and you thought you were simply spaced out where in reality your subconscious was processing something you needed to do as follow-up when the time was right.
