Well, if you missed my thoughts on the upcoming New Moon Solar Eclipse in Aries on Monday - April 8, 2024 as well as Mercury Retrograde (Rx) from Monday - April 1, 2024 until Thursday - April 25, 2024, as well as the Jupiter conjunct Uranus aspect on Saturday - April 20, 2024 you might want to click back a day and play catch-up. It's all in the RED FONT ADDENDUM at the bottom of that page.

Today the Moon in Scorpio moves into Sagittarius at 3:52 PM EDT.

The Moon in Scorpio quincunx Mercury in Aries makes communication and transportation, weird and uncomfortable. Imagine sitting in an uncomfortable carpool. Or maybe you happen to lose your temper with another driver and wind-up at the same stop Light side-by-side. Scorpio has a sharp tongue and doesn't mince words, so this could be a problem early on in the day.

Just remember, karma is a cruel mistress and she will come to collect. The more 'conscious' you live your Life, the quicker you will realize it to get you back on the 'right' path jackrabbit fast. And you will know it when it happens.

The Moon in Scorpio will then trine Neptune in Pisces and will want to kiss and make-up. Perhaps it dawned on you that you began the day on a sharp note and realized that playing nice on God's playground will actually gain you more 'ground'. Maybe you don't care, but maybe you ought to. If you want favors, first dibs and quick courtesies, maybe you ought to do the same for others.

The Moon in Sagittarius sextiles Pluto in Aquarius at 7:23 PM EDT and will wind down the day and usher in 'emotional power'. Remember, whenever you see Pluto think power. Pluto is also 'transformative', which is its goal, to transform. Having said that, this aspect 'can be' used to mold or transform your Life in the manner you choose.

Well then straighten-up and fly right! Sagittarius energy is pretty darn deliberate. Sagittarius pulls back the bow, aims high at its intended target, and I mean REAL HIGH, and hits the mark without a scratch on the forearm or marks on the fingertips. BAM! Sagittarius rules goals, ambitions, aim and targets. Pull back your bow, take aim, release the arrow and hit your mark. Simple as that!

Following up to yesterday's RED FONT ADDENDUM. By the way, this picture of me in tree pose in the pumpkin patch has its usefulness today.

As we are mere days away from Mercury in Aries turning Retrograde on April 1, 2024 until April 25, 2024, make certain you visit the Mercury in Aries Transiting Degree Calendar so you can see the dates in question.

Since so many need to see to believe, that's why I post these calendars for your eyeball viewing pleasure. Notice how Mercury begins its Retrograde at 27 degrees. Mercury will roll back in degrees 27, 26, 25, 24 . . all the way back to 15 degrees. The last time Mercury in Aries was at 15 degrees was on March 18th.

Now why in the world is God taking you back to that date? God, as the Master of the Universe, is in charge of this retrograde. And it's not just you, IT'S EVERYONE!!! Why that date? Why is He doing this? It's a fair question, if you believe in God as you profess.

Do your research in your own Life and through the expanded community to put the pieces of the puzzle together. What are you not seeing, doing, going, realizing, producing, organizing, etc., that Mercury has to take you back to THAT DATE?

Retrogrades are 'do overs'. You getting a do-over. God is giving you a do-over. What do you need to do-over, where God is giving you a second and a third chance at 15 degrees (March 18th)? We get these do-overs to set us right before we progress forward.

Folks, all retrogrades are like this, and we are a population, collective, audience, public and accumulation of souls who are ALL going through this together. It's not just you, everyone is in the retrograde headed back to 15 degrees. So look at March 18, 2024 and also look at the 15 degree Aries in your Natal Chart to see where this action is occurring in your chart.

By now, you should have already been organizing and reorganzing your space because Mercury rules organizing, scheduling, maintenance, continuity, keeping up and carrying on. You see, Mercury keeps 'the flow' going.

When I teach yoga (see pic above), and let's say we are in tree pose, I remind the yogi's that sometimes it's windy day on the mat. They can use any arm variation as trees come in many forms and there is always movement in the trees. So big deal if it's windy on the mat and you are moving, swaying, or flailing your arms to keep your balance, or if the leg kicks out for a brief moment. Trees move, but they are also firmly rooted.

The goal is to hold your drishti (focused gaze). Yoga is NOT ABOUT THE POSE!!! It never was and it never will be. FOCUS! Yoga is about holding your focus no what matter is occurring around you or how hard the wind is blowing. As Patanjali says, "Yoga is an internal practice, the rest is just circus." By the way, tree pose is definitely a hip opener.

When retrogrades occur, THE WIND IS BLOWING! Hold your focus! Stay rooted. Root yourself. Do not be so easily swayed, moved, and thrown into chaos because there is wind. We have all kinds of distractions occurring around us. We are all busy. We are! We are all busy with something. You are not the only one who is busy. Swallow that pill so any level of self-importance gets checked right now. Aries is the sign that say, Me, me, me. Enough about me, what do you think of me?

Imagine the level of self-importance (me, me, me) we will experience when the New Moon Solar Eclipse in Aries occurs on Monday - April 8, 2024. I suppose we will all get a lesson in self-importance and what it might be like to not give a care about humanity. Do we need a harsh stroke of reality-plus in order appreciate others?

And so March 18th? Why are you being taken back to March 18th? It's different for everyone.

Mercury wants you to focus, organize, schedule, maintain, continue, keep up and carry on, no matter weather/whether you are facing. HANDLE IT!

Mercury in Aries Transiting Degree Calendar

Mercury in Aries March 9, 2024 - May 15, 2024

On another note - this coming June, July and August 2024, I will 'not' be writing ANY Natal Charts or Solar Returns. It is also quite possible that I may stop sometime in May 2024, I just don't know that date yet. I'm lining up my Life so that I can take this break in order to complete a different project, which will take all of three (3) months to accomplish.

I believe EVERYONE should have their Natal Chart, which is pretty is the fingerprint of your Life. It never changes. At least 'they' haven't found a way to jack with your fingerprint like 'they' have your DNA. (Insert massive dose of smartassiness.) Thank God, the Natal Chart also reveals where health issues will arise, so there's that. Anyway, the Natal Chart never changes and it is something you are always working through and working on.

The Solar Return is the report that reveals what your 'year' will look like from one birthdate to another. So if your birthday is today, then your Solar Return chart begins and it will last until your birthday next year. Now keep in mind the Universe does not speak our language as in - Monday, March 11, 2024. The Universe rolls by math and coordinates. So your birthday may have actually been yesterday or maybe it is tomorrow, when your birth 'date' is March 11th.

The Solar Return is when the Sun 'returns' to the same degree and minute it was when you were born. So that could be a day earlier or a day later, depending on your residence (location) today, which is likely different than where you were born.

Some people will choose to go on a vacation on their birthday to change their location for their Solar Return and the Astrologer will calculate that location, but I do not agree with that method. It's not the Truth. You can't fool or trick the Universe. The Truth is it's a vacation, and you will still have to return back home to your Life, to your mortgage, your bills, your relationships, your neighbors, your job and dot dot dot.

In the Solar Return, each house represents one month. There are 12 houses, there are 12 months.

I advise you to get your Solar Return 'at least' three (3) months before you birthday, simple because the planets could already be coming into the 'orb of influence' and you would be feeling the energy.

For instance, Venus moves into Pisces today impacting all birthdays from today until April 5, 2024. Those of you with birthdays between today and April 5th will already in this Venus in Pisces energy. You need to know this, especially since Venus rules both Love and money.

So there ya' go. So I will take a chart writing break during June, July and August 2024, and if I get to the place that I want to be earlier, then I will start that break even earlier, which would be sometime in May 2024.
