The week of March 31st to April 6th promises a dynamic celestial dance, culminating in the echoes of the powerful Full Moon Lunar Eclipse from the preceding week.
The cosmic stage is set with pivotal transitions, emphasizing closure, preparation, and introspective assessment. As the Sun energizes independent action in Aries, Venus in Pisces seeks a gentler, more compassionate approach to love. Mars in Pisces adds a layer of adaptability to our pursuit of goals. This week is a preparatory phase, focusing on internal alignment before the dynamic New Moon/Eclipse on April 8th introduces a cycle of profound transformation.
The Aries Sun, alongside Mercury, infuses the atmosphere with urgency and a pioneering spirit, advocating for boldness yet cautioning against haste, especially as Mercury stations retrograde, complicating communication and decision-making processes.
Venus graces Pisces with its presence until April 4th, draping relationships and creative pursuits in layers of compassion and depth, before catapulting into Aries, where it ignites passions and advocates for unapologetic authenticity in our expressions of love and values.
Mars continues its sojourn through the mystical waters of Pisces, reminding us that strength often lies in surrender and that true progress requires aligning actions with our higher selves. This week calls for a balance between action and introspection, external achievements, and internal understanding.
