Moon is waning (Krishna Paksha) and transits Sagittarius, Capricorn, Aquarius and into Pisces this week.
For a jyotish Moon-centered approach to your day, follow my daily Moon Mind posts via Face Book. Mars moves back to Virgo at 00:44 CDT on 3.25 and is sandhi until next week. With Sun in Pisces now, both will be giving each other direct gaze or drishti- heating up mental matters, communications, networking, business and commerce. Creativity should take some lead. Think in new ways. Empower your Self. For more on Mars and his unusual dance this year see my past article. New Moon is Sunday 3.30 at 13:45 CDT while in Pisces and Uttarabhadrapada nakshatra- joining Sun here as well. Sun and Moon will be receiving drishti from Mars. Uttarabhadrapada is ruled by Saturn and Ahirbudhnya, the son of Vishvakarma and Surabhi. He is a serpent of the nether regions, hidden realms and mystical knowledge. He provokes studying, research and knowledge. Though he is a Rudra, he can remove calamity and misfortune because of his intense understanding and depth. This new Moon offers us insights, contemplation and a chance to move our attention inward for greater consciousness development over the next two weeks. A certain sharpness may be accessible and available to us at this time. Desires to grow, advance and expand our knowledge and understanding will be heightened as well. Paying attention to the physical body and the mind/body connection will be especially helpful during this cycle. Somatic integration is supported and encouraged. Think: embodiment. As Navaratri begins on the 31st with three days dedicated to Ma Durga, use this new Moon time for clearing, cleaning, purifying and cutting the attachments that are unhelpful and not bringing progress. Durga has our health and physical stamina on her list of desires. By moving inward, cultivating a space for listening, retreat and gentle focus, we can heighten our connection to Self and gain access to her wisdom at this time. Be still and step into your personal power. From softness to fierceness; let both inform your process. For increased awareness, utilize my jyotish inspired Body-centered Expressive Art Therapy articles. Each week I post a new Creative Engagement Activity to help inspire your own unique creative process, Self-tracking, and to enrich your cultivation of presence. The New Moon has us creating space this week with Mandalas. It is a big year with multiple {major} planetary changes. We will experience the changes of Jupiter, Rahu and Ketu, Saturn and unusual movements of Mars all in the next eleven months. Big changes are in store for each of us! Feeling uncertain about your action steps? What needs to change in order for growth? What kind of support you need? Schedule a yearly progression with me in order to make your New Year a truly transformational year. I still have some sessions available for April. *Horoscopes are based on your Vedic rising sign. You can also check your Moon and Sun signs for further insight. Do the same with your Navamsa signs for further clarity. Do not use these horoscopes with your “Western Sign” as there is likely no correlation. These horoscopes are meant to be used as a broad overview of the current transits and obviously do not address the specifics of an individual’s unique chart. Aries: Themes of healing and digesting re-enter from stage right. Make sure you are taking time and space for these needs- especially over the weekend. Focus on financial goals and career objectives that will get you to your goals, but don't push too hard- yet. Don't expect much from relationships right now; this is a time for you and your needs as well as advancing your self. Taurus: Some learning and growth is presenting itself through friends and gains from your efforts is paying off. You are still cutting, snipping and clearing out pieces of life that don't work and no longer serve you. What are you learning from your gut? How does your digestion inform you and your process? Intuition sharpens now and assimilation sets in. Gemini: The heart returns to a roaring and sharp momentum that can offer you insights into your depths, needs and healing process. You may gain insights with career, friendships, connections, siblings and relationships. Some of these insights may bring discomfort, anger and a desire for change so listen carefully to your internal barometer. What is the passion in your heart telling you about your needs and wants? Cancer: Courage and creativity have been re-ignited and will go from a flicker to a flame for you in the coming weeks. What is percolating within? What desires will gain momentum? What stormy weather can you harness for new direction? Create. Cultivate. Network with new and old resources alike. How does this inform what you need and want? Leo: Finding your voice (again) is a theme that makes a resurgence now that Mars moves back to your second house. Find you voice. Courageously navigate your heart space, emotions and healing tools. Watch what you eat; avoid excess sweets, alcohol, spicy and heavy foods. Virgo: A sense of sharpness returns as Mars re-enters your first house this week. Sharpness of mind, emotions, heart, and needs brings up relationship concerns, memories and experiences from the past for re-evaluation. Relationships may be offering discomfort and pushing you towards retreat mode. Your gut has ample resources for you. Dance from your belly, draw from your belly and let it inform your actions. Libra: Tempestuous spring storms have turned to brooding gray clouds. Take this time to pause, be still with what is and use it as momentum to create what you want and how you want it. There is digestion of old patterns and "self" stuff right now which is connected to relationships. Process your emotions properly; don't stuff them. For you, art and heart are excellent resources. Scorpio: Be bold with your learning and growth. Listen to intention. Push gently for growth and friendships. Work on relationships with siblings and friends. Find a new sense of creativity with work, play and heart space. Sift through the rubble of your life and seek ways to speak up and share your Self. Re-imagine your year ahead. Plant seeds. Make Goals. Take small action steps that have potent meaning. Sagittarius: Mental courage comes from doing things differently and out of the ordinary. Think outside of your boxes and set your self free. Heart and emotions can offer insight and awareness as well as gains with friends and business. Make progress with work, speak eloquently and seek comfort and support. Creativity will assist you and take you far right now. Think like an artist. Don't over do it on the sweets and alcohol. Capricorn: Creativity and spring go hand in hand. Envision new options, possibilities and endeavors. Set career and monetary goals and then work backwards. What has to be done now to get you there? Network, branch out, meet new people. Be bold and courageous. Aquarius: Upgrade your awareness; listen and learn. Friendships and relationships give you a chance to re-evaluate what your needs are. Set appropriate boundaries and let go of who and what is not serving you on a high level. Think of ways to teach, advise, gain new knowledge and take sacred alone time. Pisces: Clean up mode continues in your life, especially around relationships in the coming weeks. Meditation and time alone offers you new ideas, creativity, visions and possibilities for your life and well being as well as with relationships and co-creation.
