TAURUS SEASON

Astrology by Lisa Stardust

Taurus season is here! As we approach mid-spring, the delightful energy of The Bull is upon us from April 19 to May 20. At this moment, we’ll embrace the lovely indulgences that the earthy energy brings us. Expect to be surrounded by love, romance, greenery, decadence, and everything aesthetically pleasing. At first, stubbornness might persist, but only until we make up our minds and commit to a way of thinking. Then, we’ll go with the flow, like a Bull sitting pretty in the heather.

How will earth signs (Taurus, Virgo, and Capricorn) be affected?  

You’re finally clear about the projects and endeavors you wish to manifest in reality. Implement them now.

How will air signs (Gemini, Libra, and Aquarius) be affected?  

This is a time of healing. Dedicate one day a week for self-care to connect to your body, mind, and spirit.

How will fire signs (Aries, Leo, and Saguttarius) be affected?  

New hopes and dreams are advancing your professional aspirations. Lean into them in the weeks ahead.

How will water signs (Cancer, Scorpio, and Pisces) be affected? 

Friendships and relationships are vital to aligning with your true self. You can find yourself by associating with those who care about you.

April 19: The Sun enters Taurus, bringing us a month of creativity, practicality, sensuality, beauty, and tenderness.  

April 27: The New Moon in Taurus urges us to call in abundance and artistry. This is a time to make change happen.

April 30: Venus enters Aries, taking us back to the last days of February before the retrograde. We’re retracing the retrograde journey and using our hearts to make decisions.

May 4: Pluto retrograde in Aquarius commences and lasts until October 13. The planetary moonwalk gives us a moment to reflect on our growth.

May 10: Mercury enters Taurus, making communication rigid and deliberate. We will not  mince words and be straightforward when talking.

May 12: The Full Moon in Scorpio pushes us to evolve past our comfort zone, awakening our passions and desires in the process.

WITCH-TIPS & HOROSCOPES 3/31-4/6

Astrology by Lisa Stardust 

After the frenetic events of last week, we are all experiencing eclipse hangovers.

The upcoming days bring some solace to our lives. Venus retrograde forms a conjunction with the North Node of Destiny in Pisces on April 1, making it a romantic time to connect with loved ones. April 4th brings the First Quarter Moon in Cancer, heightening our desire to reach out to those in our inner circle.

Mercury retrograde forms a conjunction with the North Node of Destiny in Pisces on April 4th, bringing depth to the communication and relationships in our lives. The same day, Mars in Cancer harmonizes with Saturn in Pisces and Uranus in Taurus. Saturn will secure our future and Uranus induces our confidence. Together, these three planets strengthen our passion to embrace our true selves. On April 6th, the Sun in Aries faces off with Jupiter in Gemini, expanding our luck and confidence. Venus retrograde and Mars link up on the 6th, adding joy and love to our lives. This is a great day for relationships to bloom and evolve.

Witch-tip:

The First Quarter Moon in Cancer on April 4th is a time to assert our goals. It marks the end of eclipse season, so it’s wise to use it as a moment to reflect upon the realities revealed and decide how to move forward. Meditate, journal, and talk matters out with friends before making a decision. When in doubt, pull a tarot card for guidance. 

Aries 

Staying steady and grounding yourself is the key. At times, it may feel like you're a little lost along the path. However, being in a stable state of being can encourage you to make strides and progress. Be mindful of the energy you give to others and save for yourself.

Taurus 

You are being asked to follow the path set forth by the universe, meaning you must listen to the signs presented to you and learn to go with the flow. It’s essential to expect the unexpected along the journey, as unforeseen circumstances might stand in the way of smooth sailing.

Gemini 

There are many challenges presented that require careful analysis. You might be too hard on yourself these days, especially as trickster Mercury retrograde encourages you to weigh out every situation with major analysis, making it challenging to make a final decision. Remember that you know what is best for you!

Cancer 

This is a great week to schedule a friend date and let yourself play a bit! Even as the retrograde’s continual presence can feel intense, you will at least have a fun companion along the way. Connecting with loved ones is strongly encouraged and can even bring out personal  breakthroughs.

Leo

Do not give up on expressing your sentiments about keeping things chill. That will not remedy any problems you might face. Sweeping matters under the rug and being passive will not help correct the situation, which means bringing it direct and upfront about emotions is the only way to go.

Virgo 

You don't know how others are feeling right now, but that will soon be revealed, especially in love situations. Relationships, in general, are going through a phase of reconnection and evolution as Mercury and Venus retrograde sort out the details. You might find resolution about the past in the present.

Libra 

There is hidden information here that needs to be uncovered. It might not be this week, but it will come out in the open very soon, so stay tuned. Loose lips sink ships, which is why you should listen and pay attention to the words you express to avoid gossip.

Scorpio 

There is a definite friction between what you know and what others may project onto you now. Try not to take things too personally, as everyone seems to be feeling themselves under these conditions and thinks they are right in the way they’re reacting to you. Stand your ground, Scorpio!

Sagittarius 

This week is about appreciating your gifts and delighting in your courage. The swiftness and immediacy of your passion will come through even if you are afraid to take any steps forward into a brand-new decision. Doing so requires you to be brave and never look back. You got this!

Capricorn 

It is time to let your instincts shine through and promise yourself that you have a significant purpose to fight for. You’re here to follow a proper and ambitious path, and nothing can stop you. Think of today as a massive motivator for your future because you deserve great things.

Aquarius 

You are a soldier in your battle. Ask yourself exactly who and what you are willing to push for. That is precisely where you need to spend more of your time. It might even require you to cut away unwanted things and people from your life at this immediate time.

Pisces  

Your experiences in relationships culminate this week. Questions arise through your ultimate ability to center your mind and emotions, helping you find yourself with the assistance of loved ones. Your connection to long-term friendships inspires your soul, motivating you to understand yourself better with their stellar advice to guide you.

NEPTUNE IN ARIES

Our heads are spinning from Neptune’s movement into Pisces. The planetary change forces us to see matters through a different lens after thirteen years of exploring our emotions through Pisce's eyes. Now, we are getting fired up in sparky Aries, which is urging us to evolve and become the person we wish we were. We are breaking free and out of our comfort zones to embrace our true selves.

Neptune takes approximately 165 years to swim through every sign of the zodiac, so the last time it was in Aries dates back to 1861 to 1875 (with many retrogrades in between). What is important to note is that the American Civil War began in 1861, a fight that lasted for four years. With Neptune’s entrance into Aries from March 30 until October 22, power shifts, and people challenge authority for their POV. And then again from January 26, 2026, to March 2039.

Already, we are experiencing the shift as we are unwilling to sit back and watch matters unfold. The desire to speak up and fight for our desires is strong. We won’t stop until we are heard or get our way, which causes power struggles. Since Neptune is the planet of idealism and escapism, and Aries is the sign of aggression and action, the two are making us move toward what makes us the most happy. The days of passively waiting for things to happen or change are over.

The Triple A’s of emotions (anger, annoyance, and anguish) will hit a high in the journey. Neptune is the planet known as “the divine discontent,” so secrets and fears will be highlighted and revealed. The journey inward will have a tremendous healing effect in time as long as we are open to the process. Growing pains make us introspective and reflective, urging us to deal with the underlying issue instead of pressing it. Artistic endeavors and believing in our spiritual alliances will aid us in flying high. However, the journey will make us self-involved, as Aries is the sign of our constitution. The downside is that we might experience severe insecurities or imposter syndrome. Know that you’re good enough and excellent. Positive affirmations will keep you going.

Another common theme is relationship disillusionment; people might find that they’re better off with or without certain people. This includes friends, not just significant others. Our psychic senses will be heightened, allowing us to get the tea on matters. Our passions will take the forefront of our hearts. No one will settle for anything less than stellar.

An important day to look out for is the Neptune and Saturn conjunction on February 20, 2026. This marks the beginning of a new awakening, dream, and path in life. Saturn moves into Aries on May 24 for a moment and then retrogrades into Pisces. When the planet of commitment moves forward, it dances with Neptune in the same sign. It is an auspicious time to envision a fresh start and to realize our potential.

WEEKLY HOROSCOPES 3/24- 3/30

Astrology by Lisa Stardust 

This is the busiest astrological week of 2025! Mercury and Venus retrograde are making moves, while the solar eclipse is bringing change, and Neptune’s planetary switch is transforming our dreams. To prepare ourselves, it’s best to go with the flow since these planetary movements bring unpredictability. Don’t plan for the future; remain in the present to see what comes to fruition. 

The Sun and Mercury create the “cazimi” effect on March 24, making it the best day of Mercury retrograde. The Sun revitalizes Mercury and gives it strength amidst its moonwalk. Mercury retrograde harmonizes with Pluto in Aquarius on March 25, pushing us to confront matters and situations. The caveat is that we might intensify the communication too much on the 25th, so try to be kind. 

Romantic planet Venus backtracks into Pisces on March 27, linking up with Neptune. This aspect makes us delusional in love, even allowing us to trust people unworthy of our affection. Be careful about the heart and money — the odds of being swindled are higher than ever when these two planets come together. Don’t fall for get-rich-quick schemes. 

The solar eclipse in Aries on March 29th asks us to move towards our passions. Put your needs and desires above anything else to find happiness. The same day, Mercury retrograde transitions back into Pisces, urging us to lean on intuition to find the truth. Mercury retrograde aligns with Neptune on the 29th, heightening paranoia — so be careful and don’t project onto others without proof.

Neptune enters Aries on March 30 for the first time in over 150 years. For the next 13 to 14 years (the illusive planet will retrograde several times in between), we’ll experience spiritual growth focusing on identity and the self. We will fight for our beliefs and dreams no matter what obstacles stand in our way.

Witch-tip:

With the final eclipse of the season happening this week, it's a wonderful opportunity to turn your attention inward. Consider trying a body scan meditation to help release stress and anxiety. Start at your toes and work your way up to the top of your head, focusing on relieving any tension you find along the way. Find a comfortable position and really tune into your body, breathing deeply as you acknowledge any discomfort. Imagine a warm, soothing light filling those tight areas as you breathe. This practice can aid in healing your body, mind, and spirit, while helping you stay grounded in the present moment.

Aries 

Looking into more integrative projects and keeping your focus on psychological self-discovery might be what serves your insatiable thirst for knowledge at this time. Plenty of internal growth is happening at once, which can feel overwhelming. The best way to handle this is to journal your ever-changing thoughts and emotions.

Taurus 

With the two retrogrades still in motion, making matters confusing and seemingly in flux, you should take time to smell the roses rather than wanting to zip ahead. This will be a lesson to ensure that you learn to slow down, double-check contracts, and revisit old friendships with TLC now.

Gemini 

All that shimmers may not be gold. The sooner you cut these people loose, the easier it will be to create abundance in their place. They could even be holding you back from getting the desired money or job. Rethink such commitments and define them to make sense from it. 

Cancer 

The world is your oyster. New opportunities are coming your way without a hitch, allowing you to gain experience and success in the business sector of your chart. People will want to give you a leg up now, so it‘s extremely important to lean into the energy and take it.

Leo 

This week is for planning and not committing. Now, you can start to get all your ducks in a row for the future and begin to make fortuitous objectives to help you act accordingly in attaining your dreams. Once you have a plan in motion, you can make your move. 

Virgo 

It may be hard to be sure about the next steps of relationships. Do not be reactive if arguments occur. Suss out the matter to decide who is worthy of your energy and who isn’t. That way, you will be able to set limits within partnerships that seem slightly unfulfilling. 

Libra 

You could receive a payback on a loan (with interest) that you gave to another company, employee, friend, or colleague. If you feel daring, you should level up your game and revisit a raise that has been on your mind for a while. It will work out in your favor. 

Scorpio 

If you play your cards right and lean into the higher vibration of the energy, you could reconnect with a youthful vision that has been put on the back burner. Connecting with your inner child not only heals your psyche but allows you to enchant your aura with fresh energy.

Sagittarius 

You’ll be able to cultivate your dreams shortly. The solar eclipse will set you back a few days, but consider this a good thing. If you slow down, you can carefully plot out your next moves without any issues. Rome wasn’t built in one day, and neither will your endeavors.

Capricorn 

The week ahead primarily focuses on establishing the equilibrium between your life's professional and private areas. You’ll strike a balance and stop overworking (something that you are not too keen on as you are a workaholic) to ensure that you can stabilize your energy and start to enjoy your situation.

Aquarius 

Think of this time as your gift from the universe to delve into the subjects you once thought were too taboo to study. Future generations will eventually utilize the growth you’re undergoing as a focus of educational understanding. Consider subjects in philosophy and theory as your current source of inspiration. 

Pisces 

Although you’re used to doing everything solo, you realize the importance of partnerships this week due to Mercury and Venus’s moonwalk into Pisces. This transit will encourage you to connect with like-minded people who share your ideals — but the connections might become dull shortly, so keep your options open.

WITCH-TIPS & HOROSCOPES 3/17-23

Astrology by : Lisa Stardust 

As we move between eclipses, the Universe is finding a moment of calm that allows us to connect with our body, mind, and spirit. The week ahead is enabling us to find peace of mind. The Sun connects with the North Node of Destiny in Pisces today ( March 17th) heightening our confidence and creativity. On March 19, the Sun forms an alliance with Neptune, urging us to dream BIG. Our sensitivities and intuition might escalate on this day; however, it's essential to understand that Mercury retrograde might be creating false prophecies, so be careful and what you believe to be true. The spring equinox, astrological new year, and Sun’s movement into Aries occurs on March 20, inspiring us to move towards a new season with fresh hopes and aspirations. Venus retrograde in Aries harmonizes with Pluto in Aquarius on March 21, adding passion to our love lives. The Last Quarter Moon in Capricorn on March 22 urges us to put our best foot forward and complete business matters with swiftness. The same day, the Sun links up with Venus retrograde, creating “cazimi,”

which is a pivotal time for romance. Being that  Venus is retrograde, it will offer us a moment of reflection and contemplation of the past and how we want to move forward with current relationships. The Sun and Pluto harmonize on March 23, pushing us to tackle all matters on our plates with enthusiasm and gusto. The only way out is through.

Witch-tip:

The Last Quarter Moon in Capricorn is a time to contemplate upon what truly is important to your well-being and life. Write a journal entry about what you want and don't understand and clarify your needs. Then rip up the paper and burn carefully or flush away to rid yourself of it for good.

Aries

People will want to give you advice now, so it is important to lean into the suggestions available to you and take it. This good energy will last for a while. Don’t let anything get in between of you aligning yourself with great professional partnerships during your upcoming solar return.

Taurus 

New opportunities are coming your way without a hitch during the Last Quarter Moon, allowing you to gain speed and success in the business sphere of your life. You’ll find yourself in a better position than ever, putting you ahead of the rest and able to reap the benefits easily.

Gemini 

The Sun’s ingress into Aries will ask you to handle your affairs at home with TLC, and you may even feel inspired to make some decorative changes. If there are any domestic projects you've been putting off lately, now would be the time to handle such business with your family.

Cancer 

Your social life will be firing on all cylinders throughout the week. This energy will fill your phone, social media, and inbox to the brim with messages from your friends, family, and colleagues, and you'll need to make sure you're pacing yourself and setting aside time to decompress between interactions. 

Leo

Now is the time to prioritize the people who matter, particularly you, to make them feel special. This is also a time when you may publicly announce the future of your relationship. Do not worry; this is positive news that is coming out. It’ll elevate you to a deeper alliance.

Virgo 

Before you create limits with people, try to explain how you are feeling to avoid drama from happening or reoccurring in your relationships. You may find that a simple talk will open up the issues and heal the situation without putting much effort into understanding and ruminating over it internally. 

Libra 

You've got a wonderful week ahead of you, Libra! Many plans for your career require careful thought. Remember to stand your ground and speak your truth no matter what. The days ahead clarify these matters and allow you to step into your inner power. Knowledge gives you a leg up.

Scorpio 

No matter the dynamics of your home life, the current cosmic climate will encourage you to recharge your batteries by staying in, especially at the end of the week, when the Last Quarter Moon forms a supportive aspect of your ruling planet, Mars. You will be reinvigorated as a result. 

Sagittarius 

Be careful when setting boundaries with others, and try not to soak up everything in your environment like you are prone to do. You are be hyper-aware of the layers of what people aren’t saying out loud during this time, to the extent that it feels like you’re controlling them.

Capricorn 

The Last Quarter Moon is great for healing from past hurts, presenting an opportunity to release any pain you've been holding onto. Whether you use this week to go out with someone special or spend time practicing self-care at home, you'll need to prioritize your needs and put yourself first.

Aquarius 

Issues with friends will come into focus. It is not that you do not want to put in the effort to work at mending the relationships; you’re tired of continuously dealing with ongoing problems. It’s best to focus on yourself and what you want. Then you can make long-term decisions.

Pisces 

Taking the lead in attaining your dreams will allow you to level up and be confident in all the beautiful things coming your way. Prepare yourself for wonderful and exciting things. The best is yet to come if you believe in yourself and spend the week working towards your goals.

MERCURY RETROGRADE 2025

Astrology by: Lisa Stardust 

The last thing we need in the middle of eclipse season and Venus retrograde is for another planet to begin its moonwalk. Unfortunately, Mercury is being extra tricky this season and begins its backside on March 15 (the day after the total lunar eclipse in Virgo).

Being that this is the first Mercury retrograde of 2025, it’s going to hit hard. We are going to experience frustrations in communication — especially since Venus is retrograde in the same signs, creating havoc on the romance department and with our finances. The total lunar eclipse on March 14 and the solar eclipse on March 29 will bring repressed sentiments to a boil, making the current cosmic stew anything but digestible

From March 15 to April 7, Mercury moves back through the signs of Aries and Pisces. Internalized passions will come to the forefront of our minds and vocal cords when mercury is retrograde in Aries until March 29. After that, Mercury will be in intuitive Pisces, urging us to rely on our intuition and gut sentiments to make choices. When Mercury backslides into Pisces, it'll be hard for us to find the right words to express ourselves. Therefore, we’ll pay close attention to nonverbal communication and might easily misread tonality in texts or emails. Think before you hit send on a message in order to be clear with what you're trying to state.

As usual, be careful with technology and mindful of travel plans. Delays are likely, as well as mishaps. More importantly, watch your temper. Take a moment to cool down when mad. Be kind to others — more importantly, to yourself.

WITCH-TIPS & HOROSCOPES 3/10-15

Astrology by Lisa Stardust 

Welcome to eclipse season! From here on out until the end of the month, it’s going to get intense! The week ahead is going to bring drastic changes our way. Mercury and Venus retrograde unite in Aries on March 11, urging us to speak from the heart and to be direct with our emotions. The Sun and Saturn come together on March 12, showing us the repercussions of our actions. It’s time to accept responsibility and accountability for our past decisions. The Sun and Uranus in Taurus link up on March 14, pushing us to embrace our individuality. The total lunar eclipse in Virgo occurs on the same day, heightening our desire to let go of the past. Mercury retrograde commences in Aries on March 15, allowing us to mend our hearts and resolve matters that have been plaguing our minds. As usual, watch out for miscommunications and technological issues.

Witch-tip:

Fill your bath with hot water and Epsom salt, meditate in the water, light up a candle to center your energy and release any tension gathered throughout the week so you can go back to bed feeling brand new. The eclipse wants you to restore your vitality, so any calming activity is advisable. 

Aries 

Connecting to loved ones is encouraged and brings psychological breakthroughs. You don't have to make a final decision about where they stand. Venus and Mercury’s retrograde in Aries are delaying specific actions that must be taken, but it requires you to at least plan ahead for your peace of mind. 

Taurus 

Oftentimes, you put others' needs ahead of yours and sacrifice your happiness for theirs to avoid rocking the status quo. Now is the time to reconnect with the passionate side of your personality that inspires you. No matter what anyone thinks, you must go for the gold and lean into your dreams.

Gemini 

Watch out for breakdowns in communication this weekend when the retrograde begins, creating a frenetic energy. Choose your words wisely while this energy is present, and avoid getting sucked into gossip that doesn't concern you. The less you participate in drama, the more positivity you can bring into your orb.

Cancer

Please don’t shy away from discussing your past right now, as they may benefit your romantic life and help create a deeper dynamic with your partner. It’s also a good time to do confidence-boosting activities like affirmations to heighten the way you feel about yourself and define relationships with others.

Leo

The theme of the week is self-care. Give yourself space and time to process your emotions as the lunar eclipse softens your energy. If you’re feeling anxious, connect with nature and try to breathe out the frustrations within. Grounding your mind by focusing on an object will help you decompress.

Virgo 

The eclipse will blast open your psychic ability and empathic nature. This is a great time to connect with the other side, but practicing emotional and energetic boundaries will be necessary to ensure you are not pushing yourself to the limit. Be careful in how much you give to others.

Libra 

The cosmos are forcing you to rebel and defy the norm. You'll balk against authority figures. Make sure your sassy side doesn't land you in hot water. You may feel things are outside your control this week, as this energy can make it challenging to stick to your usual routine.

Scorpio 

The week brings clarity on matters and allows you to see situations with an open heart. The world seems more apparent when you look at it from a far distance and with no judgments. If you have important news, it is time to share it with those you care about.

Sagittarius 

It would be easy to overwork yourself under this cosmic climate, so even if you feel you can push forward with your agenda, give yourself regularly scheduled breaks anyway. Excitement will come to shake up your life as the Moon and wildcard Uranus form a helpful connection during the eclipse. 

Capricorn 

On a material level, this planetary connection can help motivate you to purge your space of unwanted items, so don't shy away from compiling a box of goods to give away. The lunar eclipse will manifest in the wee hours of Friday, bringing an opportunity for abundance and good energy.

Aquarius 

The week ahead is the perfect time for shadow work to understand how you react to challenging situations. It’s perfectly fine to feel the need to spend a few hours to yourself, so make self-care a priority, in order to get your groove back and to work on healing yourself.

Pisces 

Relationships are demanding, and it feels like you’re giving 100% of yourself to make others happy. Arguments are possible if you're not careful. Try hard not to fight against the flow, as the eclipse does bring out strong feelings of vulnerability and resentments out between you and a few friends. 

The Total Blood Moon Eclipse In Virgo

Astrology by Lisa Stardust 

The collective sentiment of winter 2025 is chaotic due to the political events that are happening worldwide and the astrology that propels it forward. One of the last cosmic shifts we are experiencing this season is the lunar eclipse that commences on March 13th at 11:54 PM PT and March 14th at 2:54 AM ET in Virgo. The total lunar eclipse, which is also touted as a Blood Moon due to its orange/reddish color, allows us to see things on a different scale. It will give us a more demure and mindful view of how we feel about situations, aiding us to comprehend the best ways to assert justice and take our power back. The lunation is also urging us to create daily rituals for ourselves that encourage us to focus on mending our body, soul, mind, and heart.

The eclipse connects with Mars in Cancer, Saturn in Pisces, Uranus in Taurus, Neptune in Pisces, and the Nodes of Destiny. However, the Sun and Moon directly aspects Uranus, urging us to break out of situations that no longer serve our higher selves. Most likely, this will be a bad habit that we’ve been trying to kick for some time or a healthy routine we want to take on (from Mars and Saturn’s presence). The caveat is that we are hesitating in the evolutionary state (due to Neptune’s fog) and wish to find unconventional ways to augment our lives. Perhaps we should start leaning into our true selves by acknowledging what is in our hearts to understand our needs and desires. Embracing our individuality allows us to be stronger and confident, giving us the ability to make the necessary adjustments that we long for in time.

The wonderful fixed star Alkes links up with the Virgo Moon, bringing a pleasant experience to the overall energy of the lunation. We won’t feel blindsighted by anything that is revealed since the lunar eclipse urges us to look within. Alkes is a beneficial star that offers us compassion and clarity about our purpose in the season of retrogrades and misinformation.

The following day, on March 15, Mercury begins its retrograde journey in Aries. The reason why this is extremely important is that the planetary ruler of the Virgo Moon is Mercury. Therefore, we will feel unsure about our emotions or unable to make certain movements during the eclipse. Remember that this isn't the time to decide about the present or future because Venus is Retrograde and Mars is in it’s post-retrograde stage. Adding Mercury's pending retrograde blends in ambiguity and distorted information. It’s hard to figure out the truth now. The best way to handle this energy is to journal our feelings because it'll help us find ways to better understand our emotions. As a result, might even come to conclusions about the past and heal old wounds.

Try to be gentle with yourself and others, as the Virgo lunar energy is releasing former issues and rehabilitating our spirit. Listen to your body and remain in the moment. Don't overthink, and trust the process. We are on the road to recovery. 

WITCH TIPS & HOROSCOPES 3/3-9

Astrology by Lisa Stardust 

Mercury enters Aries on March 3, adding passion to our communication. The desire to tackle issues head on could create tension with others, so be aware of tonality and words. Mercury harmonizes with Pluto in Aquarius on the 5th, pushing us to dominate conversations. Let people share their perspectives without criticism to avoid conflict. March 6’s First Quarter Moon in Gemini lets us break free from the past by cultivating a new dynamic and vision. The Pisces Sun connects with Mars in Cancer, pushing us to grow on the 8th.

Witchtip: 

The First Quarter Moon in Gemini on March 6 is an optimal time to take a risk. Think back to the goals set during the New Moon on February 27 and try to amend them with the knowledge you learn this week. Paired together, you can transform your visions to take flight and grow into greatness. 

Aries 

The energy is high for being assertive and having emotions flare up with passion. While this week allows you to talk things out and get your points across, remember to be extra conscious and receptive to other people’s thoughts to avoid this intense energy escalating into arguments over silly drama.

Taurus 

You are moving away from impatience and into a more empathetic disposition. This allows us to understand things clearly from another person's perspective. You carry the compassionate energy and creative problem-solving skills necessary to resolve issues. Resolution and sensitivity are accentuated in the days ahead. Embrace the tenderness around you.

Gemini 

This week kicks up plenty of conversations as Mercury and Venus retrograde. Both of them, in Aries, emphasize expressiveness. The flip side is that it could instigate arguments with others. Think before putting your foot in your mouth to avoid unnecessary confrontations and issues to maintain the peace with friends.

Cancer 

Try to get in a light meditation before heading into work to have a moment of reprieve and less stress right now. This week creates a cerebral energy that may get the better of you, making it essential to ground and focus on your breath throughout the day. 

Leo 

You may feel that others are talking down to you right now or intentionally making your life difficult, so you may be forced to buckle down and push your agenda forward despite these obstacles. Give yourself a few days and try again once this resistant energy dissipates in the aether.

Virgo 

You are a soldier in your own battle. Ask yourself exactly who and what you are willing to fight for. That is precisely where you need to spend more of your time. It might even require you to cut away unwanted things and people from your life for a good reason.

Libra 

Personal relationships will have to come to a negotiation in some way. Even though you think you can, you will not be able to take on everything yourself. Be flexible and open to allowing people to help you. It’ll relieve a lot of stress and anxiety once you relinquish control.

Scorpio 

Turn on happy music and dance your worries away while decluttering your personal space. The week blasts off with a lot of energy as Mercury enters vibrant Aries, so expect a change of emotions for the better. This will be a necessary shift to get back on track with matters.

Sagittarius 

Take a moment to reflect as you come full circle. Look back on the intense personal growth the past several years have inevitably brought you and pat yourself on the back for the changes made in your life. This will give you the affirmation you need to continue your strides.

Capricorn 

Keep in mind that what worked then may not work now. Enjoy the fruits of your hard labor thus far while maintaining focus on the next long-term goal. Put your passions into a plan and invest consistent effort, and you will be bound to create practical, tangible results for yourself.

Aquarius 

A relationship is based on more than one person, so be open to hearing what others say if you also want them to listen to you—this week, bringing to light past emotional baggage to allow us to heal. Do shadow work to understand how you react to challenging situations.

Pisces  

Be sure to have your dream journal ready every morning this week, as the First Quarter Moon in Gemini forms a helpful connection to communicative Mercury. This cosmic climate can bring through psychic prophecy or visions, so try to notate any strange encounters you had while wandering the astral realms.

Venus Retrograde in Aries and Libra

Astrology by Lisa Stardust

Every 18 months, Venus, the planet of love, artistry, social graces, and money, moonwalks. Venus will be retrograde from March 1 to April 12 this year in the signs of Aries and Pisces. When Venus retrograde commences, we will feel as though relationships are stalled, and it's hard to bring in lucrative investments. This energy  will be more challenging in the weeks ahead because Mercury retrograde (from March 15 to April 7 in Aries and Pisces) as well as two eclipses (the lunar eclipse is March 14 and the solar eclipse is March 29) are also happening to create more intensity within our lives. 

During Venus's retrograde, the planet switches from being an evening star to a morning star. This change makes Venus more passionate and energetic, milder and quieter than the former. On March 22, the Sun and Venus retrograde form a conjunction known as “inferior cazimi.” The alignment leads to major epiphanies about how we partner and show up for others. We’ll become conscious of our role in matters and try to fix them if we can. 

A common theme of Venus's backward march is how we feel about ourselves. We might convince ourselves that we are less than others compared to them. Rather than allow ourselves to assume we aren’t accomplishing what others are, it's essential to state daily positive affirmations to remind us that we are excellent and worthy of love. Other ways to mend our hearts are to implant self-care and practice gratitude—not to others but to ourselves. This is a time to build confidence and not let others take our shine away.

Motivation will be complex, especially when Venus backs up into Pisces on March 27. The weeks to come might make us exhausted and consumed with our emotions. It is advisable to cry and let out our innermost sentiments because it brings us one step closer to healing. We can be emotionally reborn after a monumental release that’s been building up for months. 

In terms of money, it’s best to stay on a budget. Don’t make any promises, investments, or lending agreements now. The deal could turn sour, putting us in a tight spot to get out of. When trying new aesthetics, save yourself the hassle and wait until after Venus turns direct. You do not want to get stuck with a big credit card bill and a bad haircut.  

Who will be affected? Everyone.

No matter what sign you are, the impacts of Venus retrograde are intentense. Look to the Aries and Pisces houses in your birth chart and the planets you have (if any in those signs) to foretell the personal story that will affect you. If you want to do a deep dive, check out the houses and planets in Taurus and Libra (since Venus is the ruler of these signs). 

Honor the Goddess on her day, which is Friday, by making offerings to her of roses while setting your intention. In order to receive Venus’s blessings, it’s vital to embody her spirit. Kindness and compassion can go a long way and change your future if you allow it.

WITCH TIPS & HOROSCOPES 2/24-3/2

Astrology by: Lisa Stardust 

Mercury in Pisces connects with Saturn in Pisces on February 26th, Uranus in Taurus on February 27, the North Node of Destiny in Pisces on March 1, and Neptune in Pisces on March 2. All of this frenetic energy will make communication unclear and erratic. February 27’s New Moon in Pisces urges us to embrace our visions and bring them to light. Our hopes and goals can become real if we allow them to take flight during the New Moon. Venus retrograde commences on March 1st in Aries, moonwalking back into Pisces by April 12th. Interpersonal relationships and finances will be complex as we understand how to attain better circumstances for ourselves. The Sun in Pisces squares Jupiter in Gemini on March 2, boosting the New Moon energy and pushing us to think and dream bigger. 

Witch-tip: 

This week’s cosmic events are intense. It’s pivotal to slow down and realign with yourself. Focus on centering and grounding your energy.Incorporate soothing music into your routine, but add a layer of intention: choose tracks that resonate with the themes of hope and transformation. As you listen, visualize your goals taking flight. This not only helps center your energy but also aligns with the New Moon’s invitation to manifest your dreams.This exercise allows you to be connected to your body and mind simultaneously. 

Aries

The New Moon is urging you to manifest your dreams into reality. Be intentional about what you put out there, and be sure to lean into your subconscious aspirations through meditation and journaling. Channel your inner warrior, and do not let fear hold you back. The only one who stands in your way is you.

Taurus 

Stick to your daily routines, make plans, and try not to give in to anyone's demands throughout the week. It is important to execute your goals into reality through mindfulness. Paying careful attention to your emotional habits will help propel you to the next level. Keeping yourself on track is what helps you remain accountable.

Gemini 

Commit to your new professional vision and aspirations, even if you feel lost in the fog and unsure about the future. Incorporating your creative visions with your work at the middle and end of the week will give you an inkling of how to proceed with your quandary and help you find purpose and resolve.

Cancer 

There will be a need to assert your point of view in every situation to ensure that people aren’t making sweeping assumptions about us before they have all of the information. Make sure you defend your account of matters before your words are twisted. Clarity and certainty is more critical than ever throughout this week.

Leo

Releasing those that have hurt you is challenging this week. The break isn’t forever. Taking a timeout from relationships and situations that cause you stress is essential for growth. Holding on to these friendships will cause you severe emotional strain. Choose to interact with the people who lift you up rather than push you down.

Virgo 

Instead of arguing and fighting with those you love, look deep within yourself for understanding and compassion. You can heal the past if you are easy, gentle, and open minded. You must accept that everyone has flaws — including yourself; some people are better at hiding them than others. Don't criticize yourself. Give yourself some love.

Libra

Pay attention to your dreams at night. A trip in the astral plane might awaken repressed feelings and make you aware of goals that you've put on the sidelines. Take stock of what you see and learn from your visions by writing them down in a journal to note for the future when they happen.

Scorpio 

There is beauty in allowing yourself to relax and be taken care of. Plan for a fun time and see the great rewards brought to you now. This is a time to step into your power and be confident in who you are. That will make you the most attractive to all types of love. 

Sagittarius 

You are on a spiritual journey that evolves over time and connects you to higher realms of understanding. Remember this when you feel any delays, as your often inquisitive air sign might become impatient. Let the universe catch up to you and offer insights immediately. You'll be ready to hear the information at that time.

Capricorn 

This is a new realm, an entirely new era, and an entirely new way of viewing alliances. Be open to the current changes and shifts happening. You are a sensitive and caring person, so you can be the source of inspiration for society by serving others. It'll encourage you to let your amazing attributes shine.

Aquarius

Learning to balance your checking and savings plan accounts is a crucial aspect to note at this time. If there are items you don't need, part with them. Even though you wanted to make the recent purchase, it doesn't mean you can't love it without it. Trying to make returns for is the best strategy.

Pisces

You’ll feel more driven toward your career and life path. Those walking along with you on this journey will present themselves quite clearly. The catch of this energy is that you’ll also have to leave others behind. Prepare yourself to make decisions that will impact you profoundly this week as you transform your personal world.
