Where the Planets are Lining Up This Week


It's going to be an interesting week.

The spring equinox is here! And with it comes some intense energy.

The Sun has entered the sign of Aries this week, followed by the New Moon and a meeting with crazy Uranus. You may have lots of new opportunities and get very excited about things; only to be met with delays for a few weeks. Thanks to Mars and Mercury retrograde.

There is also a chance that many of your new beginnings and unexpected twists and turns; relate back to events in your life that started many years ago. Perhaps you weren't able to complete them, set them aside or you just were not ready to deal with the situation at that point in your life. I feel many of you will be dealing with relationship and/or professional issue. Some of you reading this, may run into an old flame. Others may get a chance to revisit a situation or an old boss may contact you about coming back to the company. Many of you will be connecting with people from the past.

The new moon this week is near 0 degrees Aries and this was part of the cardinal t-square from 2010 (summer). Do you recall that difficult period in your life? Many of my clients are still talking about it. These issues or things that were happening during this time period are coming back up again to be readdressed. Hopefully once and for all!

Also, because many of the planets are now in Aries, there will be an impulsive energy surrounding the week. You may feel like taking more chances than usual. Some of these choices will seem very "fated". Expect the unexpected. Just when you think something is going one way...a curve ball is thrown and forces you to take another direction.

There'll be a continuation of relationships changes for many people too; both personal and professional partnerships. You may find that a lot of people in your life are acting very self-centered and it will drive you crazy! It's all about "me" week rather then "we" week. You'll hear the phrase; "What's in it for me?" more than once this week. You may feel as if your voice is not heard and your opinion not counted.

On a similar note, there is something in your personal/home life that needs to change or end. It's time to let go. It's old. It's the same old song and dance and doesn't have a purpose in your life anymore. If you resonate with this, you will be in the process of doing this very soon.

On a very mundane level, people will push you out of the way to make room for their place in line. You watch! You may notice more rude and pushy people. Politeness has gone out the window.

There will probably be a lot to do and not much time to do it in. Astrologically, we have lots of squares and oppositions this week. Your energy levels may still be low. You may feel like there is not enough of you to go around and everyone expects you to Give, Give, Give!

One of the best things you can do for yourself is to schedule 50% less of what you would normally set in your schedule. Don't agree to take on more responsibilities right now. You don't have to say no. You should just say NO to right now.

Over the weekend, many of you will need to be extra carful of accidents. But my the end of the weekend, things begin to seem a little lighter and you'll enjoy a good movie, a nice meal and just feel more relaxed than usual. So get through this week and readdress past issues from two years ago. Move on by week's end, knowing you've accomplished a lot. Expect changes and curve balls to happen. Be patient and good to yourself. This is only a temporary energy. Things are changing but you need to roll with the punches for a short time.
