2023 March Equinox
March 20 June 21, 2023
The 2023 March Equinox as the Sun enters the sign of Aries is always an indication that our situations will be changing, once again. The Sun in Aries will accentuate our desires to look inward at what we need to do in order to improve our situations. In the Northern Hemisphere, this is the start of spring, while in the Southern Hemisphere, this is the start of fall. More daylight for the north, while less daylight for the south. The Sun is forming an out-of-sign square to Mars in Gemini, pushing on us to improve our circumstances, but not in a clear and definitive way.
The Moon in Pisces is sextile to Uranus in Taurus. This can indicate sudden shifts in our emotional perspectives on situations, or we could encounter triggers that suddenly have us emotionally reliving an event from our past. The positive factor to this particular aspect is that we have a better understanding and can use it as a learning tool.
Mercury, ahead of the Sun in Aries, will be stationing for a retrograde motion in about a month. Be certain to finish up any plans for travel, or get contracts finalized before the retrograde begins.
Venus, at home in Taurus, inspires us to accentuate our talents. There is also a hint of money matters that we may need our focus, in order to improve our financial position. Venus is sextile to Saturn in Pisces. Our life may be intertwined with another who needs our help or from whom we need help. The out-of-sign square to Pluto on the Anaretic degree of Capricorn might be pushing some discomfort into our lives, as we try to resolve our social reputation in ways that cause us to want to hide.
Mars, leaving Gemini on March 25th, for Cancer, is forming an inconjunct (quincunx) aspect to Pluto in Capricorn during this Equinox. There is the possibility of feeling drained, or working through a recovery process that has us feeling stifled. With this occurring at the start of equinox we can probably expect that our healing/therapy/recovery process may feel slowed or delayed, at least for now. It may feel improved as we build up strength and endurance over the next few months, but probably not as quickly as we would like. Mars is forming an out-of-sign trine to Saturn in Pisces. Once Mars moves into Cancer on the 25th we are likely to find constructive solutions to situations that are causing us to feel today. Mars is also forming a square to Neptune in Pisces. This also has the potential of causing us to feel frustrated. There might be mental health concerns for ourselves or others. Our best option is to search, or reach out, for assistance. The fact that Mars is transiting Out of Bounds (OOB) during this Equinox can definitely be a cause for concern. We are likely to encounter feelings of vulnerability within our Mars based experiences.
Upcoming astrological events before the June Solstice - Jupiter in Aries will move into Taurus on May 16th. Saturn in Pisces will station retrograde on June 17th. Pluto in Capricorn will be leaving moving into Aquarius on March 23rd, stationing retrograde on May 1st, and moving back into Capricorn on June 11th. This first Aquarius transit by Pluto in our lifetimes, will give us a snippet of things to come when Pluto will eventually stay in Aquarius in 2025. Solar Eclipse is April 20 at the 29th degree of Aries with a Lunar Eclipse May 5, 2025, on the 15th degree of Scorpio.
