Mercury in Aries & Forecasts for March 27th to April 2nd, 2022

Sunday~ Mercury moves into Aries at 3:44 am ET, instigating bold moves and fresh new plans. This pairs well with Aquarius conjunctions on Monday, especially if you're hoping to get things moving and get a fresh start. New Moon in Aries is on Friday the 1st of April. Today, Aquarius Moon aligns with the Aries Sun for inventive and original thinking and a future oriented focus. Clear the way for Friday's New Moon and feel connected to your purpose and what excites you. Follow that. Wear Red.

Monday~Aquarius Moon meets Mars, Venus, and Saturn plus Venus and Saturn have a direct conjunction at 3:27 pm ET. Relationships are the main idea. Planets and the Moon encourage committing to something together, making decisions for the two of you, and also setting some relationship boundaries as necessary. Envision, imagine and act on your future, as partners or in some cases as a group. Both personal and professional relationships are highlighted. New working or romantic relationships may feel promising and inspiring. Be authentic and up front honest with each other. Void Moon 10:11 am ET on. Wear Pink today.

Tuesday~The Moon moves to Pisces at 12:32 am ET. The Moon is diminishing in light, waning. Clear the way for new things. Clean the house, your workspace and other areas where clutter has accumulated. As you go about ordinary tasks and maybe float a bit from one thing to another, there's an undercurrent of action and change. The Moon aligns with Uranus at 10:54 pm ET. Something may come together in a surprising way. Trust the process today. I hope you get a great surprise this week! Today's color is Light Blue.

Wednesday~Pisces Moon meets Jupiter and Neptune, two planets that influenced last week quite a bit. Pisces activates for loving, forgiving, creative, and flexible effects. These aspects look hopeful, gentle, and generous. Invite an abundance of whatever is needed. Act from the heart and keep your heart open to possibility. The pitfall could be escapism or too much yield. Stay strong in any way you need to. Immerse in creative endeavors. Visit a waterscape and be like water. Today's color is Blue.

Thursday~On the threshold of Aries New Moon, continue to clean and clear, prepare for the new even if you don't know what it is! Pisces Moon aligns with Pluto in Capricorn overnight, for dreams and realizations. Connect with your true, inner most feelings first thing this morning. Breathe into that. This is also a New Moon preparation. You have to know how you really feel before you can take that next best step. 5:30 am ET brings Aries Moon for two days, and the Moon meets Mercury at 10:35 pm as New Moon approaches. Mercury is about thoughts, plans, words, statements, announcements and news. Allow for change in the most needed area of life. Aries is the first sign of the zodiac and this New Moon has qualities of rebirth and initiation. New Moon 2:24 am ET on Friday. Today's color is White.

Friday~Aries New Moon on the first of a new month. Act on your dreams and plans. The Moon aligns with courageous Mars in intelligent Aquarius. This feels like knowing exactly what to do, with the future in mind. The Moon also syncs with Saturn in Aquarius  and we'll tend to stand up for our rights and the rights of others, to act with the larger group in mind, and to commit to roles in our communities or workplaces. There's a serious, intentional quality to this New Moon. Act accordingly, like it all means something. Sense what's most important and let that be your guide. Wear Purple.

Saturday~Aries Moon in harmony with Venus helps lovers, partners and even friends see eye to eye. Adventures and new experiences are favored. There's a sense of letting the past go, especially petty and unimportant things. Move on from a grudge or resentment. Those things generally only hold us back. This is a going forward time. It's a great time for a first date too! Invite renewal. Two other aspects influence the day. Aries Moon squares Pluto and this can mean inner struggle. Which voice is louder, the impulsive one or the wiser one? Void Moon 9:51 am to 12:50 pm ET, and Taurus Moon follows. Get firm in your commitment and true to your purpose and heart. Honor your promises and be loyal. Mercury and the Sun meet in Aries for another New Moon type push, to the action, to the future, to the new plan. It's an expressive and rejuvenating type of energy. Wear Yellow.

What's going on this spring?  How might you invite something new and inspiring and reconnect with  your heart? So glad you asked!

Spring Equinox and Aries Season ~ March 20th-26th, 2022

Sunday~Libra Moon square to Pluto and then void of course from 8:40 am ET to 11:45 am ET. The Sun moves to Aries at 11:33 am and that is the Equinox. Scorpio Moon time arrives. Meditate with or act on the intentions you're most passionate and serious about. Red is today's color.

Monday~Mercury meets Jupiter in Pisces. Forgiveness is one possibility. Scorpio Moon squares Mars and Venus and opposes Uranus. Scorpio Moon aligns with Jupiter and Mercury. There are some contrasting and even conflicting influences with these aspects. Some things you can count on are questions of loyalty and fidelity, perseverance, and also ability and openness to healing and reconciling. We may be creative and expressive with written and spoken words and with music. It's a great time to seek some healing vibrations through sound, heart to heart talk, counseling, and mediation as well as intuitive readings and advice. Listen as much as you speak. Connect with the deepest of feelings and wishes. Black is today's color.

Tuesday~Scorpio Moon aligns with Neptune at 3:26 am ET, for continuation of Monday's forecast and themes. Pay attention to dreams. The Moon then aligns with Pluto, for intuitive guidance and inner wisdom for whatever is on today's 'agenda'. Void Moon 12:01 pm to 2:59 pm ET when the Moon changes signs. Sagittarius Moon syncs with Sun in Aries, brightening and activating. We might feel more social or more adventurous. Mars squares Uranus which is difficult, stubborn and points out what must change no matter how much resistance there is. Some will experience strong pushes and catalysts for change, most of which cannot be controlled only responded to. Today's color is Purple.

Wednesday~Sagittarius Moon aligns with Mars and Venus. This may give new perspective to relationship issues and free up some energy, to lighten or let go of a situation that isn't benefiting anyone. New, alternative approaches are favored. We could feel more emotionally detached and break some co-dependent cycle. It may be obvious what cannot be held on to, or who needs more freedom and autonomy. This week appears to be about releasing control. Mercury and Neptune in Pisces have us in a creative and sensitive cycle and as they meet today we may put that into words or art or another form of expression. Acknowledge your sensitivity and your gifts. Wear Pink.

Thursday~Sagittarius Moon aligns with a third planet in Aquarius...Saturn. Saturn's effects are unlike Venus and Mars though. This relates to maturing, to responsibilities and maybe to rules and protocols. How can we work within the limits or constraints and still be free, authentic and original? Notice how that can be possible. The Moon then squares Mercury and Neptune, yesterday's influential planets. Our words or feelings may be challenged or questioned. Maintain boundaries that support your freedom. Freedom and boundaries and the right balance of each is a theme to contemplate and act on. Void Moon 8:59 am to 5:54 pm ET. Capricorn Moon prepares to square the Sun overnight. Make a plan or take another step this evening. Wear Blue.

Friday~Capricorn Moon and the Aries Sun engage in a power struggle overnight. Traditional versus new is one theme and there may be internal or external conflict as a result. As the day goes on, and Uranus is trine to the Moon, reconstruction is favored. Reimagine something and begin to plan or build it. Wear Brown.

Saturday~Capricorn Moon aligns with Jupiter, Neptune, and Mercury in Pisces. Mercury and Pluto align and the Moon meets Pluto. This is all Capricorn/Pisces and the aspects may help create more balanced approaches and emotions. Earth and water signs work well together. Be both creative and sensible, business like and compassionate, acting from a realistic, yet heart centered place. Void Moon 7:51 to 8:55 pm ET. Wear Green.

Saturday, April 30th join me for a chill aerial yoga session with live music from JUST MILK at my studio in South Portland 4-5:15 pm during the Solar Eclipse in Taurus! $39, limit 10 people. No experience necessary, in fact you can come and just listen and float in the hammock though movement options will be offered too!

Robin

Sunday, March 13th~ Cancer Moon syncs with Neptune in Pisces overnight, and the Sun meets Neptune at 7:43 am EDT. Neptune draws us to dreams and imagination. This can feel hopeful or can put us in denial, not wanting to see things as they really are. Likely effects are romantic feelings, feeling the feelings of others, feeling very expressive about emotions, and wanting to create from a place of deep...you guessed it...feelings. All this emotional energy means we also need to be grounded so we don't lose our sense of boundaries and reality. If you're feeling very generous, for example, also realize what you need and avoid giving it all over to everyone else. If you're feeling very intuitive, try not to take feelings on that are actually someone else's. Basically, keep a sense of self and make decisions with wisdom and information. The Moon opposite Pluto adds to intuition and sensitivity. At 11:44 am EST, void of course Moon time begins and at 3:32 pm the Moon moves to Leo and the water sign spell begins to dissolve. Leo Moon may add excitement, enthusiasm or a way to channel all that Neptunian energy into something beautiful. Wear Yellow.

Monday~ The Moon is opposite Mars in Aquarius overnight. This can activate push-back, rebellion, and acts on behalf of and to protect groups of people. Following that, the Moon and Venus oppose and our feelings and personal relationships come into play. One effect is opposite entities and personalities come together to create something bigger and better than one could do alone. Our roles and place in groups, at work, school or in the community may shift and come into question. Venus requests harmony for the group and Leo Moon implies self interests, interests of children, education, media, performers, artists and altruism. Integrate your talents and passion into a broader group or cause. With the Moon and Uranus square, a struggle over change in leadership or role could present itself without forewarning. Unexpected situations require attention and may not easily sort or settle.  Be wise and judicious with your commitments and try not to overextend yourself. Rely on the group and let each have their role and responsibility. Today's color is Red.

Tuesday~Leo Moon with the 3rd opposition in two days. Leo and Aquarius energies and elements stay in power as Saturn in Aquarius opposes the Moon. Leo is the ME and Aquarius is the WE. This part of the lunar cycle is about how we work together for the great good, how one contributes in a meaningful and beneficial way, for both self and others. Take commitments and promises seriously and intentionally today whether you are entering them or fulfilling what you once agreed to. There's gravity in the air. Leo tends to be joyful and playful, Saturn is sometimes restrictive or reminds of the rules. Play fair. If you're happy, try not to bypass the full range and reasons for moods, states and feelings of other people. Be compassionate and SEE the other person. This doesn't have to mean you give up your happiness. It means being there for whatever comes up and holding fast to your joy. You can return to playfulness and lightness when the 'work' is done. Void Moon 9:29 pm EDT to 12:59 am on Wednesday. Purple is today's color.

Wednesday~ Virgo Moon takes the lead for tasks, errands, and grounding in routine. There may also be some important decisions or pending news as Full Moon approaches. Have a to do list and include self care. Virgo is physical, earth element so this could be a day to relieve the mind and exercise, go outside and experience nature, dance, and channel some energy physically. Balance mental and physical activities today. The Moon and Mercury oppose tonight, for sorting through differences and finding workable plans or approaches in the face of changes and unpredictability with a trine between the Moon and Uranus. Wear Brown.

Thursday~Full Moon strengthens, in earth sign Virgo, peaking at 3:18 am EDT on Friday. Keep your wits about you and don't feel the need to jump into anything. Though Full Moons bring decisions and sometimes conclusions, two oppositions continue the many oppositions of this week. That means a LOT of sorting through conflict, duality, and differing priorities. Jupiter and Neptune oppose the Moon from Pisces adding emotional element to all we take care of today. With expansion plans and actions, be realistic and try to do just the right amount versus going over the top. Same with emotional involvements. Can you keep your sense of self and do something that feels useful or productive without draining yourself of energy? There's a sense of service and giving with this Virgo Moon. Happy St Pat's Day. Celebrate safely and know your limits. There are tales about overdoing indulgence when the Moon is Full. Some of you may know the story of Ganesha and the Moon. Today's color is actually Green (astrologically speaking, convenient for 3/17 too).

Friday~Full Moon in Virgo may be productive for night owls or keep our minds working on something even during sleep. The Moon is trine to Pluto, the most influential planet during this Full Moon. Pluto pulls us to internal awareness and instincts. Sense what your body and inner wisdom have to say. We may feel more self aware, more anxious, more tuned into subtle things. From 4:11 am to 7:26 am EDT, the Moon is void of course. It could mean a slow start or an abrupt wake up, and either way it may feel more uncommon than usual. Take time to get balanced, awake and on your feet. Step by step this morning. Libra Moon has no planetary aspects today. Team up with a friend or partner for either work or pleasure. Seek company for whatever you're experiencing, to share rather than isolate. Endings, partings of ways, slowly dissolving something and letting it go or allowing it to change... these are all Full Moon probabilities. Pisces Sun aligns with Pluto in Capricorn, and there's that internal awareness increasing and becoming more obvious. Meditate and dream during this Full Moon. Give yourself some down time. See what emerges when you're not trying so hard. If you're activated about relationships, personal or professional see if the thoughts and feelings can sit overnight before acting on them too quickly. Wear White, for clarity.

Saturday~ Libra Moon with many aspects today. We come from any Full Moon or Neptunian cloudiness into some Aquarian aspects, with Venus as our planetary influencer. Venus wants harmony and speaks to our sense of peace and beauty. Partnership is a theme and so is collective energy~ for love, creativity or to accomplish something others will see and experience. Venus also squares Uranus in Taurus. It's interesting that Venus rules Libra and Taurus, two signs of note on this day. Relationship matters are most prominent. Changes of relationship status, or things we didn't know were coming up in personal relationships, are coming up now for exploring and maybe resolving, with effort and in good faith. Saturn has the final word today, weighing in from Aquarius, a fixed sign that thinks long term. Make the long term plan now during Full Moon time. Tomorrow all of this continues to sort, maybe with another variable thrown in. Can you be a good friend and an honest partner during this potent time of change? What does that require? Let any of these ideas help guide you. Lavender is today's color.

Floating Yoga Nidra at Leaping Waters 

Sunday, March 6th ~ Mars and Venus enter Aquarius almost simultaneously, at 1:23 and 1:30 am EST. They meet in the sign of science and global vision at 2:12 am EST. One effect is working together for the common good and universal well being. Mars is action, Venus is beauty and harmony. In personal relationships, this can support synchronicity, getting together to complete a mission or project, and potentially for love and partnership. The quality of these planets in Aquarius is not romantic however, and sometimes can seem emotionally objective or detached. Love for the world and for one's place and role in a group or the community is emphasized more. The Moon is in Taurus from 3:00 am on. Taurus Moon squares Venus and Mars, with a challenge to soften or yield in stubborn personal situations and also in broader ways, such as a call to leaders to find compromise and consensus and to act on it. Today's color is Pink.

Monday ~ Taurus Moon meets Uranus, the planet of instigation and disruption. Norms are challenged. Things cannot stay the same. Jupiter and the Sun help out, aligning with the Moon from generous and forgiving Pisces. Seek the solution that heals wounds and souls. Saturn and Neptune also influence the Taurus Moon, one with a strong message from Aquarius, about deciding for the good of all involved. The evening hours offer creative, musical, and mellow vibes of Neptune and the Moon. Today's color is Green.

Tuesday ~ Taurus Moon square to Mercury for negotiating and again, deciding what's most appropriate, harmonious and likely to work. Take the whole group, family, workplace or country into consideration. This is a call to give forth effort to work something out. The Moon aligns with Pluto in Capricorn for deep inner knowing and calling upon the wise, intuitive self. Void Moon 9:35 am EST to 1:40 pm when the Moon enters Gemini. Use these hours quietly and to center yourself. Avoid committing to anything for now, unless you feel absolute certainty. That includes purchases. Gemini Moon aligns with Mars and Venus in Aquarius. Air element and energy means lots of ideas and conversations, meetings, and social occasions. Take part in a conversation that inspires or helps to resolve something. Today's color is Blue. 

Wednesday ~ Gemini Moon squares Jupiter in Pisces. This is a call for agreement and growth, moving forward, sharing ideas, and remaining sensitive to emotions and to those in sensitive circumstances. Compassion fuels ideas and ideals today. Jupiter seeks abundance of love and healing while in Pisces and expands our creative energy. Gemini Moon looks for the ideas and the words to express with. Mercury moves to Pisces today for the same, the written or spoken words that instill compassion and sensitivity. Observe your thoughts and how they come across in words. Writers may immerse in creative process more readily while Mercury is in Pisces. Today's color is Light Blue.

Thursday ~ Gemini Moon makes 3 planetary connections before void of course hours 11:43 am on. 

The Moon and Sun square bringing reliability and truth into question. Ask lots of questions to clarify and make sure you're getting the whole truth and all the necessary information. Saturn in Aquarius aligns harmoniously with the Moon, but in a serious, intentional way, asking for the wise and responsible decision. The Moon and Neptune square reminding us not to live in denial or dreams. Too much watery, airy energy can unground or lead to only ideas and sentiment without action or follow through. Do something to help ground yourself in reality, the now, the moments. See people and situations for what they are. If you feel spacey and unsure, step back, have something to eat and avoid altering your mind with substances that will contribute to altered perspective. Today's color is Yellow.

Friday ~ The Moon moves to Cancer at 2:24 am EST Cancer Moon trine to Mercury in Pisces is water element forward and implies emotion in all interactions and especially in words. That really is the primary theme today. We are halfway between New and Full Moon, a time for any sort of progress. Wear Blue. 

Saturday ~ Cancer Moon is in harmony with the Sun and Jupiter in Pisces and with Uranus in Taurus. All angles are easy, though we may need tolerance for changes of plan or structure. Be like water while not losing your ability to stay afloat. Daylight Savings time begins overnight and cannot be underestimated in how it affects some people very strongly, even just that one hour. Be gentle. 

Wear White today.
