Monday, the Moon remains in ambitious, realistic, and goal-oriented Capricorn until 11:25am EDT. We tend to be more realistic, serious, and cautious, which can support practical endeavors and financial matters.
Our ambition surges, requiring structure and planning. When you add the pragmatism this Moon placement supports, you can see how this could be a productive time for business and long-term goals. Our reputation becomes even more important to us.
As best as you can during this time, avoid “should-ing” on yourself. Take the pressure off, perhaps by saying, “I am doing the best I can, and that’s all I can ever do.”
Monday at 11:01am EDT, we enter a brief Moon VoC that lasts 24 minutes until 11:25am EDT. Use this intuitive time to soften your need for accomplishment with a gentler, more intuitive approach.
As always with a Moon VoC, as best as you can, don’t start anything brand-new, stick to routine things, or simply go with the flow. (Moon in Capricorn sextiles Neptune in Pisces)
Monday at 11:25am EDT, the Moon moves in freedom-loving, forward-thinking Aquarius, where it will journey until Wednesday afternoon (March 26th). The energy of the Aquarian Moon relates to our instinct for improvement.
Reactions are more intellectual than emotional, and interactions are more impersonal than personal. We are likely to have an increased fascination with the new and unusual.
Social gatherings, anything connected with group ideals and goals for the future, brainstorming, new ideas and methods, and progress are promoted while the Moon moves through Aquarius.
Again, we have our eyes on the future — or outer space… Personal freedom becomes paramount.
Uranus is the ruler of Aquarius — and this planet is currently moving through Taurus, making these next two days a great time to look at our physical connection to our own body, finances, and whatever is most important to us on this planet.
It’s also a great time to innovate and change our lives around any physical matters that no longer serve us or keep us stuck in the past; we need to elevate our thinking if we want our bodies and the planet to vibrate at a higher frequency.
Ask yourself: Do I need to give my body something different to raise it to a higher vibration? When I tune into myself, what insights does my body provide?
Where have I become too rigid in connection with my body, my physical resources, or my talents? Where have I become too comfortable with those things? What is my connection to the Earth? To Nature? Do I need more physical space? More physical movement?
Monday in the later afternoon, a Sun/Mercury alignment in 4.5 degrees of Aries becomes exact at 3:48pm EDT. We started to feel this aspect from Saturday night (March 22nd) on; it will be strong until Wednesday early morning(March 26th).
This aspect indicates a confident mind and an analytical approach to life. Intelligence and communication abilities are strong at this time; however, we may not listen as well as the other speaks, as we are too busy thinking about what to say next.
Given that this alignment takes place in Aries, we may feel particularly impatient and impulsive, or even irritated. Do your best to avoid confrontation or overly passionate outbursts.
We want an active role in communications — it’s very hard for us to passively listen and absorb information right now. What we say or write now is impactful, so choose your words wisely…
If people hung on your every word, what would you say then? What would you hold back from saying?
Our opinions are passionate and our thinking independent — and we’re proud of both — so our egos may get bruised if we don’t feel “heard”.
As best as you can, express yourself fully, knowing that others may have a different opinion or need more time to process what they receive from you.
Do you have your Ascendant, Career Point (or personal planets) in 1-8 degrees of Aries, Libra, Capricorn, or Cancer? If so, you will be more affected by this alignment. This is also true for those of us who have our Ascendant or Sun-sign in Leo, Gemini, or Virgo (the Sun rules Leo; Mercury is the ruler of Gemini and Virgo)
