Monday, MARCH 9

The Full Moon occurs today in the sign of Virgo at 1:48 PM EDT. It’s a time of culmination, and the promise of fulfillment of something begun at the New Moon. We’re pressed to find a balance between day-to-day functions and routines, physical health, and the need for order (Virgo Moon) and vision, spiritual health, disorder, and the infinite (Sun in Pisces). This Full Moon urges us to strike a balance between work and service, practicality and impracticality, criticism and acceptance. Symbolic illumination occurs in our lives–we might reach epiphanies that lead to turning points.

Mercury stations and turns direct today after retrograde motion since February 16th. Over the coming weeks, recent problems with communications and decision-making should start to improve. The answers we’ve been waiting for can arrive. Plans or projects that have stalled might now resume. We can be flooded with energies that are hard to make sense of during the shift today, however, and thus critical decision-making might be avoided for the time being, as our thinking can be skewed temporarily. It’s a better day to take in than to take action. It’s also a good idea not to rush conversations and observations.
