Regardless of how endless Winter may seem for some of us, Spring is here! The Vernal Equinox arrived, in the Northern Hemisphere, on Tuesday March 20, 2018 at 1 degree of impulsive, high energy Aries, the 1st sign of the Zodiac. In the past 12 months, the Sun has transited all the Astrology signs and the cycle starts anew. Let’s spring into action! (Sorry, I couldn’t resist it 😆).
Ruled by warrior planet Mars, aggressive Aries can be used to springboard ideas and projects that have been percolating all Winter. Be aware that unpredictable Uranus will be in this sign until 2019. It can make the Aries rush to adventure unfocused and scattered resulting in waste – time, energy, money. Pay attention to those urges to just “act” (act out or act up). Action with purpose and planning, rather than just because we’re bored will work. Risk vs reckless – don’t be careless.
Adding potential snap and crackle to interactions, Communication planet Mercury transits Aries until 5/14/18, (Retrograde 3/22 to 4/15/18). Writing, speaking, etc. may have more quickness, edge and bite – you’ll be great in debates? Create powerful tweets? (Just watch the snark)
As always, those most affected have the Sun and/or Rising sign in Aries, but the rest of us will still feel the feisty vibes somewhere in our lives depending upon where the Fire sign appears in our chart.
