Let’s talk about this week’s lunar transits and how they may affect our daily lives.
Monday, March 27th
Early this morning, the moon in Gemini forms a sextile with Mercury in Aries. Under this sextile, we are capable and discerning. With our newfound self-confidence and awareness, we are more open-minded than ever. Thanks to our communicative abilities, we are able to engage more effectively with those around us. Use your openness to heed the thoughts and needs of others.
As we get ready for the day, the moon forms a sextile with Jupiter in Aries. This sextile is an absolutely superb transit to start our day off right. With these celestial bodies working together, our generosity knows no bounds. We are compelled to contribute to humanitarian ventures and spread healthy positivity wherever we go. We are also inspired by the performative and poetic nature of this constellation. Now is a great time to work on your creative projects.
This evening, the moon forms a square with Neptune in Pisces. Under this placement, we are passive and anxious. We may feel extra sensitive and can be easily hurt by the words and actions of those around us. This hypersensitivity can lead us to direct our insecurities inward. We may be unkind and dishonest with ourselves. At times like this, self-care is very important.
Tuesday, March 28th
Just before the sun rises, the moon moves into sentimental Cancer. Under this moon, we crave the simple and pleasant side of life. As the moon is at home in Cancer, we too have a desire for home. Self-care is important for us now. We can cook our favorite meal, read our favorite books, tidy up our living space, or just take a well-deserved nap. It is essential that we use this time to recharge our batteries.
A few hours later, the moon forms a conjunction with Mars in Cancer. Under this conjunction, we feel on edge and irritable. We must be mindful of these feelings or else we can become argumentative or in the worst cases, violent. Exercise and meditation can aid in our stress relief since this transit can cause emotional and physical tension.
Just before noon, the moon forms a trine with Saturn, in Pisces. Under this trine, we see things clearly and tackle our goals with a great level of dedication and care. We feel organized and responsible. There is a desire to sort out our space as well as our thoughts. We are setting our intentions with care and consideration.
As we get ready for bed, the sun in Aries forms a square with the moon. As earthlings, we hate to see our celestial parents fight. Under this half-moon, we can face many obstacles in our personal and professional lives. We may feel uncomfortable in our own skin and around others. This discomfort can lead to public disputes. Since we are particularly susceptible to health issues at this time, we may find it helpful to take a mental health day and let ourselves unwind.
Wednesday, March 29th
Around lunchtime, the moon forms a sextile with Venus in Taurus. This sextile fills our lives with love and balance. We feel safe and secure with our romantic partners. We are gracious and considerate of others. Now is a wonderful time to consider starting a family or becoming active in your community.
In the late afternoon, the moon forms a sextile with Uranus in Taurus. This sextile grants us ambition and a can-do attitude. We are more than happy to help out with projects, both at work and at home. Thanks to our pragmatic sensibilities, we are able to persuade others easily to our way of thinking. We also may have a great desire to travel at this time.
Around dinner time, the moon forms a square with Jupiter. Under this square, conflict may arise in many facets of our lives. We may find ourselves at odds with others and pick fights with everyone around us. We may be careless with our resources as well as our health. Be mindful of alcohol and caffeine, because our livers are especially vulnerable.
Thursday, March 30th
In the wee hours of the morning, the moon forms a square with Mercury in Aries. Under this square, we may not take full advantage of our talents or resources. We may feel insecure and cynical. It may be particularly difficult to hear constructive criticism. At this time it may help to reflect on our own accomplishments. This reflection may help us build trust in our own decisions.
Around breakfast time, the moon forms a trine with Neptune. Under this trine, we are innovative and have a great enthusiasm for life. We have an appreciation for the beauty around us as well as within us. We feel artistic and attractive. Now is the time for us to put our imaginations to good use and pursue some creative endeavors.
Later, the moon moves into flamboyant Leo. Under this moon, we are overcome with self-confidence. We feel amorous. It is very easy to attract romantic partners at this time. We may have a casual fall “flirtationship.” At this time, we feel extremely inspired. We may want to express ourselves in as many creative and theatrical ways as possible.
Just minutes later, the moon forms an opposition to Pluto in Aquarius. This placement may cause you to feel like all your effort is not being appreciated or reciprocated. You may also feel stuck in a rut. These are hard feelings to sit with and you may be understandably disappointed or disheartened. To counteract this dejected feeling you may turn to creature comforts, or you may indulge in things that bring you pleasure. But be careful not to overindulge. Too much of anything is bad for you
Friday, March 31st
Our week ends with the sun forming a trine with the moon. Under this trine, we experience levels of harmony that would make a Libra jealous. We feel physically, mentally, and emotionally healthy. We have a healthy work-life balance and we feel proud of our accomplishments. The relationships with our friends and family are strong and our relationship with our partner is flourishing. Take some time to warm yourself in the glow of your personal and professional achievements. You’ve earned it.
