Sunday, MARCH 21

The Moon continues its transit of Gemini until 8:18 AM EDT when it enters Cancer. The Cancer Moon encourages reconnected with our hearts and needs for nurture, security, safety, and familiarity.

The Sun entered Aries yesterday, and Venus does so today. Until April 14th, with Venus in Aries, we are bold, fresh, and a little impatient when it comes to matters of the heart. We don’t look back–we’re not interested in saying sorry or dwelling on the past. Our desires are strong, and we express them spontaneously, enthusiastically, and directly. Our tastes are simple, but we can feel the need to fulfill them urgently in the weeks ahead.

Also this morning, the First Quarter Moon occurs with the Aries Sun’s square to the Cancer Moon. There is a crisis theme surrounding any quarter Moon phase, as we feel compelled to take action. We can face obstacles now, and ideally, they’re motivating.

Mercury forms a sextile to Uranus this evening, encouraging alternative approaches, new ideas, and scientific thinking. Intuition is strong, and insights are quick and exciting. Original, creative ideas come naturally. We can take advantage of this by solving problems in new, innovative ways. Varying our usual routine may be especially rewarding, and theories abound.

On the other hand, a Mars-Saturn trine tonight favors discipline, moderation, tradition, and realism. This transit stimulates productivity, attention to traditional or tried and true methods, pacing ourselves, and temperance. We feel more directed and purposeful, and we tend to be thorough in our efforts.

The void Moon occurs from 8:04 AM EDT, with the Moon’s last aspect before changing signs (a square to Venus), until the Moon enters Cancer at 8:18 AM EDT (a brief period!).
