Astrological Insights: March 25 - 31, 2024
On Monday we greet the Libra Full Moon, which also happens to be a Lunar Eclipse. Remember: even if you can see an Eclipse in the sky that these celestial events are potent harbingers of illumination in our lives.
This lunation calls upon us to integrate our desires with those of the people with whom we are in relationship. It can help us gain insight into whether our approach to satisfying our needs and those of others is a balanced one or whether the scale is tipped to one side. For example, do we over-accomodate others to the detriment of our self, or vice versa?
It’s a moment when we may perceive more clearly how different people draw out distinct parts of who we are. With some, we may find ourselves more connected to our romantic side, others our serious nature, and with others our adventurous orientation, etc. Use these Full Moon energies to get a sense of which aspects of yourself are bright to light when interacting with different friends, family members, and colleagues, as well as your romantic partner(s).
Remember that the stirring of an Eclipse is not limited to the day that it occurs but rather we may attune to it weeks before and after Often times, we feel and experience it over the course of the previous weeks and for months afterwards.
We are a bit “eclipsed” during Eclipses: we may feel the ground shifting under us, we may perceive a sea change, and yet we may not necessarily know to what destination this movement will ultimately take us. This occultation and obfuscation is a key element of this time (notably too as this Eclipse will be soon followed by another one—an Aries Solar Eclipse—occurring on April 8). .
So, try not to stress that things aren’t as clear right now as you’d like them: it’s just the way that it is, and as time unfolds, so will the further meaning and significance of the events that are manifesting and/or the bursts of awareness in your consciousness. I know that having a plethora of patience and Aries season (which we’re in right now) don’t necessarily go hand in hand; yet, try as you can to be in presence and witness of the moment without rushing to draw a premature conclusion as to what exact meaning things may have.
If you need some additional help in this department over the coming weeks, consider using Impatiens flower essence. As its name implies, Impatiens can help quell impatience and impetuousness. It assists us to flow better with the natural rhythms of time and not be so rushed to get things done or draw expedited conclusions when the moment isn’t primed for doing so. (Flower essences are made from flower-infused water and work energetically to restore emotional and mental balance. You can find them in natural food stores or holistic pharmacies.)
On Thursday, we have a Venus/Uranus Sextile. This alignment offers us gentle encouragement to look at our valuables—and what we find valuable—from a different orientation. In doing so, we could discover the richness of something or someone that we’d yet to truly perceive. See how you may access a broader definition of what you find to be beautiful and/or pleasurable this week.
Have a lovely week!
