3/22 • Sun (energy and identity) ~together~ Neptune (dreams and boundaries):
During this transit, you may find yourself exceptionally attuned to the emotions and thoughts of others, whether that sensitivity is rational or not. If you have a tendency to put the needs of others before your own, be careful, because this tendency may become stronger under such influence. It is important to recognize two key points: first, individuals who consistently put others before themselves often do so to avoid facing their own challenges; second, there is the danger of becoming so absorbed in altruism that it loses touch with reality. It can be useful to use this energy for solitary activities such as meditation and self-reflection. Unless you can maintain complete detachment from charity or service to others in any way, it is best to focus on your own needs and desires as the new year approaches. Think about whether your own life is stable enough, organized and abundant enough to justify devoting so much time and energy to others. If you are strong and energetic, then continue your altruistic pursuits. If you are weak, tired or anxious, it is best to prioritize self-care and time for personal replenishment, remembering that “charity begins at home”.
3/25 • Sun (energy and focus) ~together~ Saturn (reality and purpose):
This energy activates a powerful sense of personal purpose and individual direction, while emphasizing the need to create a solid foundation for your many dreams to thrive. The actions launched this week play a key role in shaping your future, for better or worse, emphasizing the importance of vigilance and self-awareness. While often centered around career issues, it covers your overall responsibilities—the difference between tasks that can be delegated and those that cannot. Use this energy to organize effectively, plan meticulously, and strengthen your position by bringing order to certain areas of your life (in the House of Aries). Putting off tasks that you know you need to do only reinforces negative feelings, so prioritize and complete them sooner rather than later. Although this energy can make you feel lonely or depressed, don’t give in to it. Recognize the difference between time spent socializing and time focused on business. If you’ve been avoiding or putting off certain responsibilities, now is the time to make a list, prioritize tasks, and start checking them off to ease your own stress levels.
3/25 • Sun (energy and identity) ~sextile~ Pluto (rebirth and transformation):
This energy activates a positive and transformative shift, offering the vitality needed to improve the current situation or resolve long-standing challenges. It also helps you clear your environment, organize your things, and resolve lingering issues that are hindering or delaying your good. With a holistic view, you can identify areas where adjustments are beneficial for the collective well-being. Alternatively, if external tasks feel overwhelming, take the opportunity for introspection and deep internal self-reflection. Superficial examinations are not enough; dig into the root causes of your current circumstances to recognize what needs to be integrated and activated and what needs to be cleared and released to align with your current goals and new personal values.
3/28 • Saturn (responsibility) ~sextile~ Pluto (power):
This is where persistence meets strength and you feel that strong “can do” attitude. However, both planets are inherently the glue for removing debris before allowing (or supporting) new *building* in your life, circumstances, or relationship. Ultimately, it’s about being in charge of your own power and realizing how to use it to build your life. It’s time to dig deep into your soul to truly determine what it is that truly supports and protects you. Hard work and focus are built in, but you have to define your terms of what your end goal will be. When you’re aware of it, these two together are incredibly empowering to help you build on everything you’ve achieved so far. If you are not clear, these two will poke holes in every plan you attempt until you first clear the past, own your decisions, and give your Self to build something new that better reflects who you are and what you want in the here and now. Additionally, as much as these two work together to further your outer life, it’s a good idea to use these combined energies for inner empowerment. You can use that same energy of deep commitment to strengthen your emotions (because they go deeper than usual), become more practical in your thinking (because you can’t hide from the Truth forever), and even if you have personal physical goals, these two planets can deepen your devotion there, just long enough to see physical results. Work consciously, face any hard/dark truths, or be prepared to have a big *mess* (aligned with your deepest fears) on your doorstep that you need to clean up before you can go anywhere, let alone the next level.
