Personal growth and emotional expression bring healing to self and relationships. 

Mars in Aquarius sextile Chiron in Aries blends assertiveness (Aries) and healing (Chiron), offering opportunities for personal growth and emotional expression.

Mars, the god of war and action aspecting Chiron, the "wounded healer," creates a positive avenue that compels us to confront and transform our wounds into examples of learning experiences via resilience, compassion while confronting personal challenges.

Venus in Pisces trine Jupiter Rx in Cancer adds a beautiful energy within relationships, including the one with our self. This paves the way for the previous aspect and enables us to compassionately face any deep-seated wound that may be surfacing. Guard against financial negligence right now and make sure you don't overspend.

Delving into a new experience refreshes passion by releasing pent-up tension. 

Despite being feeling grounded and goal oriented under a Tauren Moon, it traveled out-of-bounds north, indicating outward action, this morning @ 9:42 AM; therefore, we may be somewhat out-of-sorts and moody, suddenly compulsive without considering the consequences when it conjuncts Uranus and travels void-of-course.  impatience with obligations and desires for something new and different to break the monotony. 

It's best to forgo demands that require concentration, for the next few hours. Delving into a new experience refreshes passion by releasing pent-up tension. And, as long as it's within reason and does no harm. Take care and weigh the balance or we may have regrets in the near future.  

This aspect requires individual discernment.

Feeling mentally explosive is a clear sign that change is warranted. Feeling victimized is a clear sign that change is required.    

Mars in Aquarius square Uranus in Taurus. In a nutshell, this transit requires challenges to be addressed in new ways to avoid explosive responses or fixed energy. Uranus is a planet that will evict us from complacency,

while Mars is an aggressive warrior unafraid to pursue its desires. As in chess, you can't use the same strategy over and over and expect to win. 

Exploring new ways of being benefits us in the long run and demonstrates spiritual growth. Avoid rash and/or impulsive actions today. If you feel as though you'll explode, it's a clear sign that change is warranted. If you're the victim of such, it's a clear sign that change is required.

It is through the beauty of creation and arts that we come to understand and recognize universal patterns. 

Mercury Rx conjunct Venus in Pisces. This is typically a mental transit, but Mercury is retrograde and many astrologers consider Pisces (and Sagittarius) his detriment. However, the influence of Venus exalted in Pisces strengthens the repour between planets.

This conjunction occurs in the 5th house, a house of life and creativity representing children, romance, and all amusements. 

There is a dissolution between our mental acuity and feelings enabling us to articulately express emotion. 

This house of creativity best conjoins intellect and emotion through the creative process or admiration of creation and art. We are able to both understand intellectually, feel concepts more deeply, and recognize universal patterns on a spiritual level.

Welcome to March! No major aspects—enjoy your day and this offering of art & poetry by Sappho: 

“What cannot be said will be wept.”

  - Sappho (circa 630 to circa 570 BCE)

‘Hesperus, you bring back again’

Hesperus, you bring back again

What the dawn light scatters,

Bringing the sheep: bringing the kid:

Bringing the little child back to its mother.

‘The Moon is down’

The Moon is down,

The Pleiades. Midnight,

The hours flow on,

I lie, alone.

~ 

Painting, Death of Sappho (Safo)(1881) by Catalan artist, muralist and poet Miquel Carbonell i Selva (1854-1896). Museo Nacional del Prado.

About the Painting:

Sappho was a famous Greek lyrical poet from the island of Lesbos. She sometimes was called the Tenth Muse, as her abilities to create music and write poetry were legendary. One story about her death - which has circulated for millennia, despite any evidence as to its veracity - holds that Sappho flung herself off the cliffs of the Greek island Leucadia due to her love for Phaon, a ferryman.
