As the week begins, a sense of new emerges. As we arise, feelings of potentiality arise as well, given that the New Moon occurs as Sunday unfolds into Monday. And with that, and us now being in the midst of Pisces season (the Sun moved into this desire-to-see-all-and-feel-all sign on Saturday), we’re encouraged to follow the flow, swim in the ocean of emotions, and surrender to the muse, becoming a vessel for its inspiration. Opt for softness, perceive where separation is an illusion, and be open to the subtle. Consider how things—and people—may be more interconnected than they appear on the surface.

And yet it’s not just all about receptivity and passivity, acceptance and infusion, softness and serenity. After all, also on Monday Venus enters Aries (where it will resides through March 16). Reflecting this, we may notice invitations that call us to express our inner warrior and champion our desires. An affinity for immediate gratification can have us energized and yet can also lead to short fuses and long moments of impatience.

A beautiful way to combine the Pisces + Aries clarion calls is to let feelings of love, grace, and compassion move you so deeply that they spring you into action. Be open to sparks that soulfully inspire you, allowing you to find the courage to dive in and pursue an aim that deeply stirs you.

Also, as the week kicks off, be open to new-fangled sources of information and how they may yield insights different than you were anticipating. Additionally, avoid having rigid expectations when it comes to how a conversation or an educational experience will unfold; allow it to surprise you, while also letting yourself be surprised by what it brings to you, how it makes you feel, and the way it informs any actions you feel inclined to take.

Have a beautiful week!
