And why the skies want you to ‘go there’…
As I write this forecast, I am recovering from a minor operation. I had to be at the hospital early in the morning. I saw the sunrise over Sydney Harbour on my way to the hospital. It was divine! I looked at my charts of the day, and guess what? Mars was making significant aspects to my natal chart (Mars rules surgery, surgeons, and the knife). There was no escaping the surgery. I was nervous, even if it was a minor procedure. Yet, my charts indicated that it was a time to heal. I couldn’t go on without it. This month, we begin with a series of healing sessions.
On the 5th of March, the North Node meets up with Chiron in Aries. When the North Node meets up with this asteroid, it is time to pay attention.
For example, you have a niggle and you are ignoring it for fear of what it may entail. Don’t ignore it. It is time to book that appointment. Find out what is going on and fix it. You see a psychosomatic cause is behind a lot of diseases. As Louise Hay would say, that word is in essence ‘dis-ease'. Something isn’t sitting well with us. And facing it, whether medically related or not, is scary as ****.
Yet the North Node says for you to progress in life, you must face your wounds. Face what needs healing so that you vibrate at a higher energy level. The world is shifting to a new energetic vibration, and it is time to let go of the past and things that no longer serve us. Now I’m using a medical example as I started this column with it. It won't necessarily be that for you, but when you read this, that idea of what it could be that pops up in your mind, that you don’t want to deal with? It is that.
Less than a week later we will have the New Moon in Pisces on the 10th March. Being in the last sign of the zodiac, we look at our compassion and inner sensitivity. Use your imagination and look at ways you can heal yourself spiritually as that will follow on a physical level.
During this New Moon phase, on the 11th of March, Mercury moves into Aries, and on the 12th Venus moves into Pisces. We will be invited to speak our minds. To open our throat chakras, and speak our inner truth. It is time to connect with our hearts and nurture ourselves. It will be tricky to avoid as the asteroid Hygeia will be in a huge Piscean stellium with Neptune, Moon, Saturn, and Sun! Saturn is dragging all these planets with him as he participates in a Kite aspect with Jupiter, Ceres, and Juno.
What does all this mean? We are being called by the great teacher to look through the BS. We are finally understanding what we need to nurture us on a deep level. What do we need to get through the day? Where can we compromise? How do we nurture our spiritual selves with our physical and mental sides? Like last month, we may realise that things aren’t as we thought they were and need something deeper. We may find that the answers we seek are even deeper than we thought.
I’ll give you a personal example.
When Vesta moved to Gemini last month, it opened a series of realisations in my life. I was sitting in a cafe with Mum, talking about some family skeletons. Things from the past century have trickled down the generations, so Mum and I were discussing these things when she said,
"Your father said that things will never be the same again. And he was right. They never were..." and she took a sip of her coffee.
In the past, a family mystery was present that I never understood. In hindsight, I was getting information from a young age that didn't make sense with this issue. Of course, I'm not sharing details...this is juicy sh!t that cannot be shared on the public domain, but bear with me.
It was then that I started to put two and two together (It felt like factorial four (4!) but I digress). Images of the past popped into my head. Clues of a puzzle that I knew existed but never thought were related started connecting in my head. Things people said that didn't make sense suddenly made perfect sense.
"Is it because...." and I started to explain what I was thinking. Mum looked at me with a poker face and calmly said, "Possibly..." I couldn't phase Mrs Sagittarius with this. Yet there was a twinkle of pride in her eye that said, "My daughter worked it out. Wow..."
This is what Vesta in Gemini is. During this New Moon, Vesta is sharing the sky with the Moon, Hygeia, and the Sun. Saturn is dragging these planets across the sky while participating in this Kite. It is time to get to the core of the story. Go back in time. What are you genetically, astrologically and spiritually carrying in your DNA that is affecting you right now? You begin to understand your ancestors' motives and motivations. You don't judge. You come to understand it plain and simple. And you finally understand yourself.
Deep stuff right? There is more to it. Mercury enters its shadow period on 18th March. So as I got all the information together during that time I’m sure more will trickle my way, and you will too. Also, more information is to come our way as things slow down again. Even if a retrograde period is on its way, I find it a great time to gather all the information needed. There are things in the ethers that need to be solidified and understood.
We will gather all this information to tie up the past. This will prepare us for the New Astrological Year at the Equinox on 21st March!
Happy New Astrological New Year!
!And Happy Birthday Aries
The flavour of the coming year brings more clarity to what we have been experiencing so far. Pluto nudges us to transform what we have learned finally as the Moon comforts us that everything will be OK this year.
We’re coming out of a tough time, but things don’t ease up straight away. We need time to process it first.
A few days later, when Mars moves into Pisces, Mars' passion is fanned. Rather than jumping the gun, we look for ways to solve our problems outside the box. It is time to be more compassionate, and understand other’s motives and our motives in life.
The month ends with Easter! Our household is a bi-religious household. Hubby is Catholic, so we get to celebrate Easter while the rest of us are Greek Orthodox. So we get to celebrate twice! Only this year, because Passover is in late April, Greek Easter isn’t till May! We may not get the cheap chocolates this year, but dang it but there will be lamb! So Happy Easter if you celebrate this event!
This Easter is preceded by the first eclipse season of the year! The 25th of March brings in an Annular Full Moon Eclipse in Libra. The aspects we were looking at during the Equinox are coming to a head! If you were in denial, then you wouldn’t be now. Full Moons are about letting go.
As I was leading up to this point, you will see that this month, and I reiterate the skies are building up to new beginnings as we piece together the past to let it go. Also, keep in mind what transpired during the last Libra Solar Eclipse (October 14 2023). This will also be rehashed during this time. Again, the skies are urging us to go deeper, especially around our relationships.
Finally, we have had a tough 15 years with Pluto in Capricorn. Pluto trines the Full Moon in Libra. If you have the Sun, Moon, or Ascendant in a Cardinal sign (Aries, Cancer, Libra, Capricorn), you have had a challenging time. Look back to pre-2008 (if you are old enough to remember).
Life is not the same, is it? Pluto is apologising now for how harsh he was but he is also saying, ‘Sorry, Not Sorry!’
You are now clearing up the carnage and wounds of the past to bring in a great future. As I bring this to a close, my healing is also coming to a close. I feel much better than before. I will know in a couple of months once I've fully healed how successful the procedure has been. And I have transformed what needed healing and transformation from the past. Whether, genetically, spiritually or astrologically, I know the future is brighter for me and all of us.
Embrace March for the wonders she will bring. This month is a no-nonsense month.
It is also a time to celebrate, reflect, and understand where we have come from, who we have come from, where we are, and where we are going.
I'll wrap this up as it is time for me to nap. I find general anaesthetic fun to go under, but to recover is quite another thing.
See you next month!
Astrological blessings,
Georgina
