We start the week with a powerful conjunction between Venus and Pluto. But Venus is running away from Pluto, so whatever understanding we’ve come to is something we can take with us and continue to reflect upon. The combination of Venus and Pluto can show us where to focus our work.
Sunday, the sun moves to Pisces, even though kabbalistically, we start the week eight days into Pisces I. This year is a leap year, so we get to experience Pisces twice. The month of Pisces has the energy of Yesod from the Tree of Life. By connecting to it in a positive way, we can have energetic sustenance for the entire year.
“By connecting to Pisces in a positive way, we can have energetic sustenance for the entire year.”
We start the week with the moon in Gemini and six planets in air signs. We may feel all over the place with a desire to know everything! In addition, Mercury in Aquarius can bring us new ideas and understandings, but it is also a time to calm our nervous system. We can have visions and plans, but we also need to write steps for how to make them happen realistically. It is good to have dreams; what was science fiction in the past is now reality. This square is good for that, though as much as Aquarians have great minds and ideas, the journey here is to learn to relate to our close environment.
With Mars in Aquarius, spend some time getting to know your friends and community. Try to relate from your heart to the people around you, not just to their ideas. Ground yourself by working with an earth element with activities like doing ceramics or standing barefoot on Mother Earth. Bring oxygen into your bloodstream by breathing deeply. This will clear and focus your mind. Spend every day with some conscious breathing during this time.
Monday, the moon moves to emotional Cancer, and a lot of domestic situations will require your attention. From Wednesday to Friday, a conjunction between Venus and Mars will bring all kinds of questions about equality. We’ll be reconsidering what is right and what is wrong. What is justified and what is not? Do something spiritual with your loved ones, like volunteering together.
“The journey for us is to make a connection between the heart and the mind.”
On Wednesday, the moon moves to Leo, and here we have a tricky opposition. The moon will be in opposition to Pluto, which is emotionally intense. Try to avoid conflicts that are unnecessary and know that our emotions can deceive us. The moon also will be in opposition to Venus and Mars. Here, the journey for us is to make a connection between the heart and the mind. Avoid anger and breathe deeply into your heart. Imagine that your heart is the most beautiful blooming flower you have ever seen.
Friday, our communication messenger, Mercury, moves from Aquarius (air) into Pisces (water), and the communication will be more on the vibrational, emotional side. Remember, the best thing you can do for yourself this week is to work with your heart.
