Grouchy?

There’s a hangover in the heavens from a Mercury Saturn square that pulled exact at 3:20AM early this morning. And the Moon is Void of Course from late last night until she enters Aries at 12:28PM Friday afternoon.

Stick to routine while the Moon is V/C. Green lights come on as the Moon changes signs and then sextiles/harmonizes with Mercury two minutes later.

Something surprising or out of the blue is likely when the Moon meets unpredictable Uranus in the heavens at 3:39PM Friday afternoon.

Clear skies follow for the rest of the day and night.

Something sweet.

The Moon in Pisces meets Sugar Queen Venus in the heavens at 7:12AM Thursday morning and it’s likely you’ll see smiles around the breakfast table and hanker for something sweet. Luna then sails out into calm seas until she lines up opposite feisty Mars at 10:53PM Thursday night.

There’s a heavier note in the Skywatch that powers up Thursday afternoon: Mercury square Saturn, exact at 3:20AM early Friday morning. Communication mix-ups, negative reactions and attitudes are all more likely in the face of this square.

This is not the night for a heart-to-heart exchange.

Better to call it early and let everyone else do the talking.

As times change.

Dreams?

The Moon met dream weaver Neptune in the heavens last night and then slipped into Neptune ruled Pisces early Wednesday morning.

Green lights are up for work or play on Wednesday as the Moon sextiles optimistic Jupiter at 6:47AM. C

Clear skies continue until the Moon makes another positive sextile to Pluto at 6:30PM.

Evening hours are quiet.

Mars Retrograde is the main event in the Skywatch on Tuesday.

The Moon in Aquarius sails out into quiet seas suggesting a good day to check in with friends and to put your original thoughts and ideas out on the table.

You may not immediately recognize Mars Rx. But you’ll notice your energy level lowering a bit and a need for more sleep in the weeks ahead. This Mars Rx is in Virgo, the sign that rules our job and health.

Virgo rules the details and we’ll need to pay more attention to our diet and health concerns during Mars Rx.

Strange bursts of anger from unlikely people and unusual situations are also more common during Mars Rx (this is when Ralphie attacks the bully in A Christmas Story).

So heads up. Figure it will take a little longer than usual to do things during Mars Rx. Better to go back and improve old drawings rather than to start something new.

As times change.

Last chance.

Clever Mercury trines stationary Mars at 5:15AM early Monday morning and the good vibes in the trine will hang around through the morning hours.

Today is the last chance to put new plans into motion before Mars begins a long Retrograde period at 6:54PM on Monday. This will be like driving in reverse as we have less energy and horsepower when Mars appears to be backing up in the heavens or Retrograde.

This 80+ day event occurs every other year and brings a time to pull back and recharge our energies. This is a good period of time to be working on projects that will begin after Mars leaves the Rx period on April 13.

Meanwhile, this is a poor time to initiate and advance brand new ideas and plans—initial results are likely to be much lower than expectations.

As times change.

  1. Good thing I started my new routine early this morning. Even if the Rx means new plans won’t work out as well as expected, I can still put forward the effort to do what I know is best for me. As it is written (and I think Lance wrote it) “the stars impel, not compel.”

  2. Yes,yes,yes….Do you, Franky.

    and now we have a real fight going on…the Republican candidates….and more elections with Mars and later Mercury Retrograde…I think people are already confused…wait for the next round.
