​Weekly Forecast: March 3 – 9, 2024, Kelly M. Beard, 6 March 2024

​​3/3  ::  Venus (love, finances & relationships) ~square~ Uranus (sudden change):

This represents an unforeseen test of growth—a fusion of Venus governing your values & priorities and an interaction with Uranus, symbolizing sudden and seemingly unexpected occurrences. Although it may feel spontaneous, it is actually an invitation to explore something “different” within your love life, finances, or relationships. Embracing a conscious effort to approach things in a completely new way holds the promise of valuable lessons and unexpected blessings. As revelations spark within you, the initial reactions or responses will likely emerge from those closest to you. If your relationships, whether personal or professional, have reached a juncture demanding change or closure, now is an opportune time to openly discuss these matters with detachment and objectivity. This energy might provoke a craving for excitement or a desire to shake things up in your relationships. However, it is also crucial to remain aware and considerate of others’ emotions, as they might not be receptive to the awakening or abrupt changes being activated within you. Alternatively, this energy can facilitate candid discussions, fostering agreements or compromises. Ultimately, this period tests your adaptability within relationships. The more rigid or attached you are to the status quo, the more disruptive this energy might seem. Flexibility becomes paramount in navigating and harmonizing amidst these potentially transformative moments.

3/4  ::  Mercury (ideas, thoughts & concepts) ~sextile~ Uranus (awakening & radical change):

This energy encourages embracing change and doing things in a new & different way, as you adjust to the new normal for right now. This is an opportunity to gain traction with your ideas, navigate positive shifts and shake things up in a beneficial manner. However, if the idea of new or different feels overwhelming & chaotic rather than uplifting & invigorating, it may signal a need for introspection to assess any mental rigidity or holding onto old ideas that have run their course. Resisting the current of change could exacerbate challenges associated with this energy, like being scattered & indecisive. Now is also an opportune moment to address recurring issues or long-standing obstacles, as ignoring them will not lead to their resolution. If you have been stuck in repetitive patterns, consider embracing fresh perspectives and alternative approaches. Be alert to new ideas & choices that may present themselves during this time, because of your *Awakened* perspective. Stay open to unexpected opportunities, events & concepts, and allow space for spontaneous creativity & unusual insights to guide you. Embrace the possibility of veering off your intended or usual path to explore new ideas, rhythms or environments – anything to stimulate inspiration & imagination.

3/8  ::  Mercury (communication & self-expression) ~conjunct~ Neptune (imagination & spirituality):

This activation is a mixed blessing, but either way, it marks a significant initiation of a new level of faith & inner wisdom. It has the potential to foster miracles, inspiration, artistic endeavors, and creative explorations. Personally, I find it conducive to initiating a profound dialogue with the Divine, your Higher Self, and the essence of your Soul. As with any initiation, it demands a prior completion. With Mercury’s influence, it is an opportune moment to expand your mental horizons, diving into deeper realms of thought. I encourage inviting the wisdom of your Ancestors, Orishas, Angels, and Animal Spirit Guides to offer guidance and answers during this period. Their counsel often resonates more deeply than that of the people around you. However, when dealing with mundane matters or engaging in honest conversations that require transparency from both parties, be cautious. The influence of Neptune might create haziness and confusion. Dealing with Neptune requires good boundaries and an awareness of which side of the veil you are on, ensuring alignment with the natural order (3D versus 5D). This energy tends to distort reality, making you believe that you are expressing yourself clearly while others might feel entirely confused. Sometimes, silence is more impactful than risking being misunderstood.

3/9  ::  Mars (actions & choices) ~square~ Uranus (change & awakening):

This energy embodies the spirit of rebellion and radical actions to facilitate change, with the ultimate goal of embodying your own true individuality on a whole new level—but something has to change first! If you are aligned with your own Authentic Nature, Truth & Purpose, then this energy can activate a sense of rejuvenated energy & inspired action. The necessity of change is obvious and if you can consciously co-create with this energy, then you can reshape your Purpose & realign with your Path. It is a period of shifts, changes & rebirth, which is challenging, but can yield a stronger, truer sense of Self in the long run. However, if you are unclear about your identity & personal potential, then this energy tends to highlight areas in need of choices, change & further development that you may be resisting by being impatient & demanding your own way. Clinging to old habits & negative patterns only exacerbates feelings of constraint and magnifies any opposition or resistance from others or authority. Your external reality reflects your internal state. Where are you resisting change? Take a moment to assess. Check your ego, reaffirm your truth, and embrace change—it is a blessing that cracks you open to new perspectives & new choices. If you do not embrace change willingly, then it is just as likely that you will be compelled to transition or forced to change, which creates stress and you end up missing the true beauty & value of this activation, which is pushing you to evolve to your own next level. Remember: Unconscious, inadequate action leads to chaos & disappointment, while conscious, effective action leads to more personal freedom & self-liberation.

3/9  ::  Sun (energy & essential Self) ~sextile~ Uranus (freedom & individuality):

This activation serves as a gateway to a deeper sense of personal authenticity and awakens the potential for deep, profound insights that come through mundane, everyday affairs this week. Whenever Uranus is in the mix, expect “ah-ha moments” to abound—those sudden bursts of inspiration or unexpected clarity that have the power to shift perspectives & stimulate new consciousness. These revelations hover at the edge of your awareness, waiting to be invited in and harnessed for your own greater good. While eventually, you will need to ground these breakthroughs in tangible forms, for now, the energy encourages a deeper exploration of the possibilities bubbling at this time. Where in your life could you benefit from a dose of freedom & liberation? How might you infuse more Light into your Being, rhythms or daily existence? Moreover, this energy fosters a commitment to more conscious, authentic living, where pretense becomes untenable, both for yourself and others. Be mindful that truth can unsettle those who prefer to maintain the status quo, leading to rebelliousness. However, rather than resisting change, embrace it as a sign of growth and evolution.

3/9  ::  Mercury Enters ARIES (until May 15th):

Mercury is going to linger here for 2-months, rather than the usual 2-3 weeks. On April 1st, it will Retrograde at 27* Aries – rewire our ideas & thinking – and then go Direct at 15* Aries on April 25th. This is going to directly affect any of your Planets in Aries/Libra or Cancer/Capricorn. Mercury moving through Aries tends to make us think more instinctively. This is a mixed blessing. On one hand, you can take in a lot of information and easily sort & sift it based on what your immediate needs are but on the other hand, it can make you jump the gun without thinking things all the way through because you are reacting instead of responding. Reacting comes from the Head, while Responding comes from the Heart. It is best to use this energy to dig into your own ideas & personal motivations – WHY do you want what you want? Why are you thinking the way you do? What is motivating your ideas, thoughts & concepts? Also, because it is Spring, it is time to think about which ideas will best serve your personal needs and professional goals in the coming year so it is another one of those times where I remind you that you this kind of self-centeredness is not based in ego but is essential to how you make your choices & decisions every day. If you do not look out for your own ideas and/or personal needs, then who will? You can also keep in mind that Libra energy balances out Aries energy, so make sure that your ideas create win/win situations where your needs are met and you are still being of service to others in a meaningful way.
