COSMIC WEATHER:

“My passions were all gathered together like fingers that made a fist. Drive is considered aggression today; I knew it then as purpose.” Bette Davis

Mars, the planet of drive and self-assertion, enters its own home turf of Aries today (12:51 am EDT), where it will stay until May 11th. Mars in its own sign tends to be very impulsive, yet also courageous and daring. Its placement here helps to fuel our desires, including our sexual desires, which Mars also governs. With Mars in adventurous Aries, the sign of identity and self-discovery, we may feel the urge to “act quickly” on our dreams.

The Moon also enters Aries today (7:17 am EDT) in preparation for its New Moon on Sunday (10:33 am EDT). All told, when it does, we will have a total of six of the celestial bodies in “steroidal” Aries: the Sun, Moon, Mercury, Mars, Jupiter, and Uranus. The Moon also conjuncts freedom-loving Uranus (9:46 am EDT) and squares intense, controlling Pluto (10:26 pm EDT). Also, Mars will be conjuncting high-voltage Uranus on Sunday.

Additionally, love maven Venus is forming a fortuitous, 60-degree aspect to transforming Pluto today. This aspect can magnetically boost our “power of attraction.” Venus-Pluto can also deepen our relationships and heighten our passions.

Too, Venus-Pluto aspects are often regarded as times when we may “meet our soulmates.” This is because in karmic astrology, Pluto is linked with our “past lives” and Venus, of course, rules love. Retrograde Mercury (which we also have now) has also been known to put “people from our past,” back into our orbit.

COSMIC WEATHER:

“Life is pleasant. Death is peaceful. It’s the transition that’s troublesome.” Isaac Asimov.

This is the last day for energizer Mars in watery, reflective Pisces (enters Aries, the sign of its rulership, 12:51 am EDT Sat.) Also, this is the last full day for the emotional Moon in Pisces, as it also shifts into fiery, enterprising Aries tomorrow (7:17 am EDT), a time when the “pace of life” could dramatically quicken for many of us. The Moon and Mars will be joining the Sun, Mercury, Jupiter and Uranus in Aries.

Also, whenever Mars changes signs, we always want to pay closer attention to events in the world, as Mars can signal pivotal changes for the matters associated with the zodiacal sign it is entering (Mars provides momentum). For instance, when Mars entered Pisces this last time on February 23rd, is when oil prices suddenly started to surge. Pisces rules oil. Aries is more “confronting-type” energy associated with conflict and war (rules the military and law enforcement). Aries also rules adventure, record-setting and pioneering new territory. It additionally governs athletes and sports.

Too, we have a New Moon in Aries on Sunday, with New Moons signifying “new beginnings” and with it occurring in Aries, the official sign of “new beginnings,” we are effectively getting a “double-whammy” here. Assertive Mars will also be conjuncting unpredictable, wild card Uranus in Aries on Saturday, a planet also known for liberation and discovery, which is a good fit for the similar Aries-type energy it is deposited in.

Needless to say, today we are on the brink of a very highly-charged energy pattern, perhaps the most intense of the year. Aries is all about initiating action and propelling ourselves and our world forward, often at warp speed.

Today, we may want to use this “transitional” Piscean energy to make sure that we have all of our players ready for bat and have a clear idea of how we want to pitch this new Aries ballgame. In line with this, we will want to be putting the finishing touches on our intentions now to be released at the Aries New Moon this weekend.

“You don’t save a pitcher for tomorrow. Tomorrow it may rain.” Leo Durocher
