The week starts on a tense note,  with a Lunar Eclipse in Virgo, on March 3.  And, Mercury is now retrograde:  be on guard for potential scheduling and technology mishaps, and miscommunication. 

Do some inner work early in the week.  Four planets are in Pisces until Friday, and it's a lot of healing energy, especially for working on your inner critic and the impostor syndrome!

The weekend calls for an honest look at the key relationships in your life.  And, if you've been working on a contract or a negotiation, Sunday is an excellent day to revisit the sticking points. You could make some good progress. 

Let's take a look at key astro-moments of this week:

✨ Monday March 2:  Mars Enters Pisces

Best For:

Mars cuts, Pisces dissolves.  And Mercury is retrograde in Pisces, too.  That's a very powerful combo for melting away: 

• Old habits
• Energetic attachments
• Old thought patterns that hold you back
  

✨ Tuesday March 3, 3:38 a.m. PST : Lunar Eclipse in Virgo

Take advantage of the supercharged eclipse power! Set intentions to release:

• perfectionism
• tendency to judge or be critical of yourself (or others)
•  feeling like you're never good enough
• excessive weight, and
• clutter that doesn't serve you (emotional or physical). 

It's also a great time to ask the Universe for help with managing or reducing anxiety.

✨ Thursday March 5:  the Sun trine Jupiter

Ahhh fantastic! One of the happiest, luckiest energies of the year.  

Best for:

• Spiritual or creative pursuits (the trine is in Water signs: Cancer and Pisces)
• Healing conversations
• Love, career and finances
• Family matters

Just remember that Mercury is retrograde, and the eclipse energies are still felt.  So this lovely trine may be more supportive of what you already have in progress, rather than new undertakings. 

And, the Moon slips into a lengthy void of course later in the day.  Do whatever you need to do before then.  See Moon Void of course below. 

✨ Friday March 6:  Venus enters Aries

Get ready, Venus will make some lovely planetary connections over the next few days, supportive of love and relationships.

And, when in Aries, Venus asks you to be honest about your needs in relationships.  No sense pretending you love mountain hiking when you're a city girl who loves high heels! (A true story...and it did not end well 🙃)

Venus will stay in Aries until March 30.

✨ Saturday & Sunday March 7/8:  Venus conjunct Neptune and Saturn, the Sun conjunct Mercury Rx, and Mercury Rx trine Jupiter. 

It's a busy weekend in the skies!

Best for:

• A realistic assessment of your relationships.  Are they where you want them to be? Or, are changes needed?  The planets are aligned just right for deep insights. 
• Adjustments and refinements to contracts and negotiations that are already in the works.
