As the warrior leaves the sign of Cancer, we’re granted a bit of relief from the sensation of being pulled apart. While Mars separated from Saturn and Pluto a week or so prior, this ingress marks a notable shift in our ability to take action.

What is the line you draw between the intellect and spirit? Where does trying to “figure it out” leave you feeling empty, longing for something with more depth than can be offered by anything other than faith?

4:06pm PDT: Mercury in Gemini semi-sextile True Node in Cancer, both at 18°23’

2:38am PDT: Mercury conjunct Neptune at 17°Pisces09’
As Mercury makes his final meeting with Neptune in Pisces, we might still feel as though we’re lacking clarity on a situation.

7:25am PDT: Sun in Pisces sextile Pluto in Capricorn, both at 22°44’
Normally the Sun in harmonic aspect to Pluto can indicate a power play - especially as Pluto in Capricorn is focused on building a structure that allows it to exert some kind of dominance. Flowing aspects are traditionally seen as positive but it’s important to remember that painful things can happen just as rapidly or fluidly as joy.

10:19am PST: Mercury stations retrograde at 29°Pisces39’
In an almost-too-casually-slick move, Mercury pivots at the last degree of the zodiac to pirate his way backward through Piscean seas. Retrograde until March 28th, the trickster might be playing tricks on himself. Mercury generally aims for clear communication, crystallized details, and strong organizational skills.

10:54pm PST: Venus in Capricorn opposite True Node in Cancer, both at 25°58’
Old habits die hard. Venus in Capricorn is a traditionalist. Whether courted or courting, she demands your high regard while doing it. Venus in Capricorn slipping over the South Node has us walking down paths with old karmic kindred and quite possibly letting them go.
