“The beginning is the most important part of the work.” – Plato

With the empowering Sun now nestled in the latter degrees of adventurous Aries, the zodiacal sign of “personal new beginnings,” there appears to be more of an urgent desire now to want to push ourselves forward with even more vigor or energy so we can quickly get done many of the projects that are still remaining on our “to-do list,” before time runs out.

Today, the Waning Moon is also in progressive, humanitarian Aquarius, all day, perhaps supplying us with a more emotionally detached or objective perspective that also allows us to consider our lives or personal interests within the confines of a much broader social context. While Luna in Uranus-ruled Aquarius often enjoys or gravitates towards involvement in outlets that advance the collective as a whole, there is also still likely a strong desire for simultaneously preserving individual freedoms or liberties at this time.

Additionally, the Aquarian Moon is an excellent period for experimentation, scientific research, and or fashioning such things as social reforms or new protocols, especially since we also have the ruler of the Aries Sun, assertive Mars, still transiting through Aquarius.

*All times EDT

Born On This Day: American aviator Wilbur Wright in 1867 in Millville, Indiana (d. 1912).

“The desire to fly is an idea handed down to us by our ancestors who… looked enviously on the birds soaring freely through space… on the infinite highway of the air.” W.W.

Hope it’s a good one! Be safe.

Cosmic Weather:

“Whenever you find yourself on the side of the majority, it is time to reform (or pause and reflect).” Mark Twain

There’s a nice release in the energy today in that we have the Moon, all day, in detached, futuristic Aquarius, the sign of the observer and reformer. No doubt, a welcoming counterpoint to some of the emotionalism and fogginess suggested by the lingering Mercury-Neptune conjunction in impressionable Pisces.

The waning Moon in Aquarius also harmoniously sextiles the pioneering Sun in Aries, this afternoon (5:53 pm). Adding, perhaps, to our sense of self-confidence and leadership ability, and potentially bestowing more of a feeling of inner balance.

The Aries-Aquarian energy is ideal for immersion in any type activities that make us feel, individually, that we’re powering ourselves forward (Aries) while at the same time doing something that we perceive will also possibly be beneficial or meaningful for the collective (Aquarius). We’re also more turned on now by things that are cutting-edge, innovative, wacky, maybe even shocking!

*All times EDT

On This Day in History: On March 30, 1981, President Ronald Reagan is shot and wounded in an assassination attempt by John Hinckley, Jr.; three others are also wounded.

Astrologically, in the sky that day, warrior Mars was separating (one-degree) from an exact conjunction to the Sun in initiating Aries. The Sun symbolizes authority figures or persons in power.

Famous March 30 Birthdays: Vincent Van Gogh, Eric Clapton, M.C. Hammer, Tracy Chapman, Piers Morgan, Celine Dion

Today’s Astrology March 29, 2019: Mars 29 Degrees and a Waning Capricorn Moon

Cosmic Weather:

“Starting is not most people’s problem, staying, continuing and finishing is.” Darren Hardy

With the Sun in enterprising (fiery) Aries today and the waning Moon in ambitious (earthy) Capricorn, both action-oriented cardinal signs, there’s excellent energy at our disposal now for finishing up our ‘to-do’ or ‘should-do’ lists (Moon conjunct Saturn), for clearing out (Moon conjunct Pluto), for doing whatever is practical or grounding for us (Moon trine Mars). Moon trining Mars also serves to enliven our emotions (8:05 pm). Plus, with energizing Mars, the ruler of Aries, at 29 degrees of manifesting Taurus, today and tomorrow (anaretic or critical degree), we may feel propelled to take some key, last minute-actions now, on matters that we’ve maybe had on the back burner for a while. In other words, there’s possibly some desperation to our actions now. Kind of like: “I’m going to get this sucker done, if it’s the last thing I do!”

“Feeling lost, crazy and desperate belongs to a good life as much as optimism, certainty and reason.” – Alain de Botton

On This Day in History: On March 29, 1973, the last U.S. troops withdraw from South Vietnam. Astrologically, on that day, intellectual Mercury in sensitizing Pisces was exactly square to restrictive Saturn in cerebral Gemini, an aspect that, on the shadow side, potentially makes us much more serious-minded and more painfully aware of the various hardships in life, the limitations, the losses. It’s, needless to say, a very sobering energy. But, also one that often pushes us to make more difficult and final decisions. It’s also a time when we sometimes say goodbye. Additionally, Mars and Jupiter were conjunct in change-oriented, liberating Aquarius, and both applying to a sextile to Neptune in philosophical Sagittarius. Neptune’s dissolving ray is often prominent with respect to crafting peace treaties, ending wars, discord, or violence.

“It is not enough to win a war; it is more important to organize the peace.” – Aristotle

Famous March 29 Birthdays: Eugene McCarthy, Sam Walton, Billy Carter, John Major, Karen Ann Quinlan

“The two most important words I ever wrote were on that first Wal-Mart sign: ‘Satisfaction Guaranteed.’ They’re still up there, and they have made all the difference.” Sam Walton

Hope you enjoy your Friday! Get er done! 🙂

Cosmic Weather:

“The purpose of life is to live it, to taste experience to the utmost, to reach out eagerly and without fear for newer and richer experience.” – Eleanor Roosevelt

We start out our ‘oh so jolly’ Monday with a waning trine between the Moon in adventurous Sagittarius and the Sun in initiating Aries (10:30 am), an ideal time, perhaps, for broadening the scope of our lives, stretching our limits. Maybe also for doing a little preaching, teaching, or possibly even performing a few, full-scale conversions, if we’re up to it, that is, depending upon our personal opportunities, inclinations, and or schedules. Keeping in mind, too, of course, that logical, analytical Mercury is still a bit fuzzy around the eyeballs because of its continuing hookup with nebulous, intoxicated Neptune. In other words, it seems we possibly may have the big picture covered, for today, at least, with the visionary Sadge Moon. But, it’s those annoying little details that could possibly mess us up, along the way. What do they say, too, that the devil’s in the details? Yup.

Too, with Mercury covering speech, we may want to be very discreet with respect to what we say in the confessional, and to whom, as we could be easily misunderstood and possibly end up with having to do more penance than is called for or deserved. Just sayin’…Trying to keep all the purgatorial sentences light around here. 🙂

On This Day in History: On March 25, 1969, John Lennon and Yoko Ono stage their first ‘bed-in for peace’ in Amersterdam. Astrologically, in the sky, that day, the Aries Sun was separating from a conjunction with Chiron in pioneering Aries, which is something that we also just had, a few days ago. The Sun and Chiron were also opposite both philosophical Jupiter and radical, anti-establishment Uranus. Both Jupiter and Uranus were conjunct in Libra, the sign of peace, harmony, and relationships. Fascinatingly, lovable Venus (retrograde) and manifesting Saturn were also both exactly conjunct in bold, spirited Aries, that day. The Moon was also waxing in playful, communicative Gemini. John Lennon (b. 10/9/40) also had, in his chart, the transiting Chiron in Aries exactly opposite his natal, assertive, sexual Mars in matrimonial Libra. The transiting Aries Sun was also exactly trine Lennon’s natal, transformational Pluto in theatrical, exhibitionist Leo.

“If everyone demanded peace instead of another television set, then there’d be peace.” John Lennon

Famous Birthdays March 25th: Jack Ruby, Eileen Ford, Flannery O’Connor, Gloria Steinem, Aretha Franklin, Elton John, Sarah Jessica Parker

Cosmic Weather:

“Your mind is like a gold mine, if you dig deep, you will find something golden.” Gift Gugu Mona

With the Sun still deposited in the early degrees of fast-forwarding Aries, there’s plenty of desire now to see it all, do it all, to make it all happen. At the same time, however, the Moon’s passage through tunneling Scorpio also gives us the inclination to scale deeper with things, to probe, to investigate (for maybe combing through the newly-completed Mueller report? The report was released with the Aries Sun exactly conjunct wounded healer Chiron!).

Additionally, the Scorpio Moon can serve to awaken our passions. It’s often said that uncovering what we’re passionate about in life, and engaging in those passions on a regular basis, often goes a long way in determining the quality of our life. In other words, there’s seemingly a lot of power in passion. In having something to do that fills us with joy. That makes us lose track of time. I enjoy blogging here because it gives me a sense of purpose. Makes me feel more alive in the morning, which at my age, is quite an accomplishment! 🙂 What often trips me up with the blogging, though, and maybe you can relate, is when I inject the self-critical or judgmental piece into the equation. I’ll write something that I think is okay at the time, but a few minutes later, when I re-read it, I’ll suddenly hate it, and will want to strike the darn thing from the face of the earth! Probably part of the whole dark, sick Scorpio birth, death, rebirth thing! But hey, it’s all good! It’s how we presumably learn and grow. 

On this Day in History: On March 23, 1945, the Battle of Okinawa occurred. US Navy ships bomb the Japanese island of Okinawa in preparation for the Allied invasion. It would become the largest battle of the Pacific War during World War II. In the sky on that fateful day, the Sun was in confrontational Aries, the sign of the military, and exactly opposite the Chiron and Neptune midpoint in Libra. The Sun was also applying to a square to Saturn in Cancer; Saturn was also squaring both Chiron and Neptune. Mars, the ruler of war, was also at 29 degrees of Aquarius, a critical degree.

“Only the dead have seen the end of war.” Plato

Astrology March 20, 2011: “Spring Equinox,” Sun in Aries, Charles Lindbergh

COSMIC WEATHER:

“Be willing to be a beginner every single morning.” Meister Eckhart

Today is the “spring equinox.” The official start of the astrological “new year,” when the Sun ingresses into “Aries the Ram,” the sign of new beginnings (7:21 pm EDT). In astrology, the “empowering” Sun symbolically represents our “core” or “center” around which everything else revolves. It is our deep “sense of self.”

The keywords for Aries are “I am.” On a personal level, this sign is all about discovering who we are as distinct creatures apart from the pack. It’s about reveling being in our own skin. Excitedly making our humble, unique contribution to the planet.

The Sun joins Mercury (thinking), Jupiter (opportunity), and Uranus (genius) already stationed in Aries. Too, almost as soon as the Sun enters Aries it conjuncts “awakening” Uranus (tomorrow), the electrifying “poster child” for change and innovation.

“Liberating” Uranus also rules aviation and the very last time we had the Sun nearing Uranus at the early part of “pioneering” Aries, back on March 21, 1928, is when aviator Charles Lindbergh was presented his “Medal of Honor” for his first trans-Atlantic flight. When we think of how aviation has drastically altered (Uranus) civilization on this planet, “freed us up” in many ways, we can glean a fresh awareness of the unlimited possibilities that exist before us, both individually and collectively, with this game-changing, (Uranus in Aries) inventive energy at our disposal. Uranus, of course, also rules technology. Too, most of the time, the only real limits that we ever face are the “self-limiting beliefs” that we impose upon ourselves.

“The real gold is what you are.” Alan Cohen

“If we long to believe that the stars rise and set for us, that we are the reason there is a Universe, does science do us a disservice in deflecting our conceits?” Carl Sagan.

Patricia Thompson’s Horoscope April 19, 2010: Baby Steps, Pope

“Safe upon the solid rock the ugly houses stand: Come and see my shining palace built upon the sand!” Edna St. Vincent Millay.

The Moon enters nesting Cancer at 7:39 am EDT accenting home and family matters. Cancerian energy is nurturing and protective and is sometimes afraid of letting go or venturing outside of perceived comfort zones. If instead of taking giant leaps forward today, some of us may wish to begin our respective journeys with baby steps, that’s quite alright. What’s most important, is that we make that first step. Sometimes, too, when we proceed more tentatively, we become aware of meaningful realities that we never even knew existed.

The Sun is finishing up its annual romp in Aries today.  It’s perhaps a little pooped, anyway, getting ready to head into consolidating Taurus.  So much recent focus on self-discovery and trailblazing. The Sun’s quinqunx to Saturn in Virgo  also has Saturn asking the Sun now for a full acccounting of  what he has gleaned in recent weeks.  He is anxious for the Sun to perfect himself and his skills.

“This is the very perfection of a man, to find out his own imperfections.” Saint Augustine.

Memorable event in history on this date: April 19, 2005 – Pope Benedict XVI, Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger, becomes the 265th Pope. The Cardinal (b. 4/16/27) had the transiting and transforming Pluto in Sagittarius exactly conjoined his 10th house of career when he became Pope. Pluto often delivers to us those life-altering experiences and circumstances that can only be described as our destiny. Pluto also rules power and control and Pluto’s alignment on his 10th house conferred upon him the ultimate power as head of the Catholic church. The sign of Sagittarius is on the Cardinal’s career house in his birth chart, originally suggesting a possible life path in religion, as Sagittarius rules traditional religion. The Pope also has several other aspects in his horoscope that reiterate a more spiritually focused undertaking for this life.

Peace and love, everyone.  Enjoy your Monday!

“Pleasure is the object, duty and the goal of all rational creatures.” Voltaire.

We are moving along but at a slower, more leisurely pace. Our need for adventure is coupled with a good measure of common sense and caution as the Moon cavorts through practical, yet self-indulgent Taurus.  This is an ideal time for evaluating the pros and cons of our new plans and for calculating costs, budgetary matters.

We are also weighing the itinerary of perks available to us if we expend energy in a new direction. For instance, will we still have time for a peaceful stroll in the park? What about being able to fit in time for a facial and foot massage?

An ocean of opportunity may be in front of us. On the surface, that sounds cool. But, logistically, if we go swimming in it, will we be able to make it back home in time for dinner? Also, what about the water temperature? We can’t go out if the water is too cold.

The longer we mull everything over, it may actually make more sense for us to go sailing instead of swimming. That way, we can conserve our physical energies.  Too, we’ll be able to eat while we’re exploring.  We may even be able to fit in a rejuvenating nap.

We could even wait until the Moon gets into Gemini before venturing out.  With Venus and Mercury both getting ready to join the Moon soon, it may be more fun to have a beach party now.

Memorable event in history on this date: April 15, 1985 – South Africa decides to repeal sex and marriage laws against whites and non-whites. At the time, expansive Jupiter was transiting humanitarian Aquarius, elevating the collective understanding and broadening capacity for diversity and tolerance. Also, the trail-blazing Aries Sun was exactly quinqunx Saturn in Scorpio.  The quinqunx is an adjustment aspect. Saturn in Scorpio suggests blockages or restraints regarding sex.  The precedent-setting Sun here successfully forced fearful Saturn in Scorpio to get out of its comfort zone and venture out into a new arena.
