if the last couple of weeks have felt akin to keeping your head up while treading water, please know you are not alone. astrologically speaking, we are in the deep end of watery wavy pisces season. pisces is the last sign of the zodiac, associated with the 12th house aka the "house of the unconscious" in astrology. during this time, you could be feeling more tender and nostalgic than usual, diving deep into past cycles and patterns, and called to seek closure, let go as we near the astrological new year
throughout this season, i have been coming back to the following quote by ram dass: "you can do it like it's a great weight on you, or you can do it like a dance." though it could be taking awhile to find your footing in the fogginess of pisces season, and there could be trips and slips and full-on falls along the way (i have certainly experienced this!), ultimately, you have the power to get back up and choose how to handle what the universe throws your way. will you choose presence, finding moments to dance and actively collaborate with life, or let the past and future decisions weigh heavy on you? will you speak from hurt, or from heart? will you move forward from a place of fear and scarcity, or trust, love and abundance? what would your highest self do?
while you always (!!!) have a choice, cosmically speaking, now is not the time to push. now is a potent time to soften, tap into your intuition, feel into what comes through, and set intentions. force less, trust more
further to this, know that change is in the air with big, bold cosmic reset buttons just around the corner: the vernal equinox and a new astrological new year, marked by aries season on 3/19; and eclipse season, which begins 3/24
things are also looking up this week! you could notice a subtle boost in energy soon after the arrival of the new moon in pisces - the lowest energy point of the lunar cycle - on sunday 3/10, and especially around the first quarter moon in cancer on sunday 3/17. in addition to this, the moon will move through aries, taurus, and gemini. let's dig in:
forecast ꩜
monday 03/11—tuesday evening 03/12
waxing crescent moon in aries
after a likely emotionally wavy, introverted weekend with the moon in water sign pisces, you will likely feel revved up and ready to get going monday morning fueled by firey, passionate aries waxing crescent moon energy. this is an excellent energy for getting out there and initiating the new intentions that were likely brewing in your head over the weekend's new moon. though your enthusiasm could feel boundless, be mindful of pushing too hard and tending to any burning impatience should things not go as planned, especially if other people are involved
at this time, consider...
play — initiating — challenging yourself — practicing patience — cardio — competitive sports and games — connecting with the element of fire — taking up space — taking a pause — thinking before speaking — cooling down with meditation, breathwork — scalp massage — facing your fears head-on
— your relationship with urgency —getting loud
— feeling into what lights your fire — humour
does any of the following resonate with you?
taking action — speaking up — impulsivity — bold behaviour —
leadership — firey frustration — childlike curiousity — bluntness

waxing crescent moon in taurus
at 8:28 pm est tuesday the moon will ground into earth sign taurus. you'll likely feel more grounded and focused tuesday evening through thursday night, with a greater ability to get into flow states and efficiently check items off of your to-do list. taurus' stable, grounded energy is excellent for getting into your body, and the present moment. if you feel called, engage in activities that activate your bodily senses and connect you with the beauty of the world around you

thursday night 03/14 — sunday morning 03/17
waxing crescent moon in gemini
at 11:16 pm est the moon will move into air sign gemini, bringing a bustling playful energy and potential for social activity. during this time it could be best to not attach too tightly to any plans, and instead lean into being open, going with the flow, as impulsivity and even indecision - due to the combination of pisces sun and gemini moon placements - could be in the air. if plans change, let them go, embrace an ariana grande attitude of "thank u, next" and move on; there's plenty more for you to explore!
at this time, consider...
socializing — trying new things — sharing — being aware of over-intellectualizing — breathwork — going down a research rabbit hole — singing — connecting with the element of air — going with the flow — your lungs — is it possible to hold multiple truths at once? — leading with curiousity — grounding meditation should you feel disoriented — speaking — writing — intellectually stimulating activities — play
does any of the following resonate with you?
multiple tabs open — communication — fact-checking — facetiming
— wit — duality — indecision — impulsivity — asking questions
— feeling overwhelmed — insatiable curiousity — social media — developing relationships — adaptability — the mind
sunday morning 03/17 — tuesday afternoon 03/19
first quarter moon in cancer
double water sign energy! sunday through tuesday the moon will be in cancer and the sun in pisces. this abundant flow of water sign energy could mean enhanced psychic abilities and creativity. you could also feel more tender, sensitive, and emotional. during this time, it could be helpful to consider how you can best soothe your inner child, making a conscious effort to do the things that will nourish you deeply - even if you feel resistant. remember that often the hardest things are also the most rewarding
in addition to this, sunday's first quarter moon phase will also likely bring a noticeable lift in energy. in this phase, one half of the moon is illuminated by the sun, the other in darkness. it is the halfway point between the new moon and full moon. duality; the contrast and balance between light and dark; yin and yang; could be a prominent theme at this time. it could become more obvious that a particular part of your life is "lighting up" or coming further into focus. you could also notice progress being made on the intentions you set during the new moon, or, in contrast, as though they are being tested. now is an ideal time to take action: either doubling-down on your dreams, working harder, or deciding to let them go. in true cancer fashion, let your heart be your guide
at this time consider...
getting creative — staying home if you feel called to — meditating — engaging in emo conversations — connecting with the element of water — inner child work — supporting your digestion — what is keeping you in your shell? — crying — swimming — spiritual hygiene — reframing — remembering vulnerability can be a superpower — doing hard things — tending to matters of the home and family — taking action
does any of the following resonate with you?
home — family — nostalgia — roots — ancestry —
creativity — comfort — intuitive downloads — introversion —
tenderness — feminine energy — self-protection — moodiness —
crisis — wearing your heart on your sleeve
