Overview
March 13th brings a square from Saturn in Capricorn to Venus in Aries. Venus’ bold expressions of love, want and self-esteem will be restricted by Saturn’s rules. This aspect suggests you won’t get what you want (at least not right away) or extra work will be demanded if you want something. Either way, you’ll probably feel unhappy or unattractive. But on the same day we have a hopeful trine from the Pisces Sun to Jupiter Rx in Scorpio. So here’s your help- Jupiter Rx’s shift in perspective/pause/narrowing of scope can bring benefits. The key will be moving with what’s unfolding naturally. If Saturn is blocking you, go where the current is flowing.
The Sun/Jupiter Rx trine is part of March 17th’s Pisces New Moon, which conjoins Wounded Healer Chiron. While Jupiter’s assistance (and path of least resistance) will help, a square from Mars in Sagittarius to this Moon will hurt (Mars makes an exact square to Chiron on March 14th). New beginnings won’t be entirely pleasant, as they will involve a weakness or wound. Anger or pushy actions will be the trigger. Whatever happens, know that resistance or trying to force a desired outcome will not work. Jupiter Rx’s trine encourages a step back or a deeper look, and you can uncover hidden benefits this way. Chiron in Pisces is about acceptance of the wound, then release. There may be a blow to the ego – Sun/Chiron in Pisces is the ultimate release of ego via an embrace of vulnerability.
However, even if victimization comes up during this New Moon, don’t think that you’re meant to give up. Mars enters Capricorn after the New Moon, so there’s an immediate shift as actions/initiatives get real. If Mars in Sagittarius was about agitating for an ideal/exploring, Mars in Capricorn is about working to make a desired outcome real. This is focused ambition, serious effort and manifestation via a climb to the top. Mars in Capricorn uses resistance to fuel progress. So whatever this New Moon brings, know that you’re encouraged to move onwards and upwards.
Although this New Moon occurs on March 17th, the immediate influence can extend from March 13th to March 18th (when the Sun/Chiron conjunction is exact).
Aries
Venus in your sign square Saturn can indicate pressure to succeed or restrict your self-expression. Rules can shut you down or make you feel less than desirable. Too, you may be on the hot seat to prove that you’ve got what it takes. But Sun/Jupiter Rx suggests there’s help available (although it may not be immediately obvious) in the form of private support or inspiration. Watch for a shift in what you share with another, or what’s being given to you.
Sun/Jupiter Rx rolls forward to the New Moon/Chiron in your hidden sector, which suggests a new development that mixes hope and disappointment. On the one hand, you may have to give something up to get something more – this can include an ending or acknowledgment that you don’t have control over an area of pain. The square to Mars suggests your efforts around travel, education, legal matters, exploration or publishing may stir up awkward secrets or hidden fears. A step forward into the unknown may be fraught with anxiety, but the trine to Jupiter Rx urges you to put your faith in someone you trust, or concentrate more fully on background financial/emotional resources. You have what you need to get through this, and you may discover this as you adjust your inner perspective.

Sun/Jupiter Rx offers assistance in the form of all relationships – one-on-one and group connections can be immensely encouraging as a specific area of growth is reevaluated/intensified, or forward progress is temporarily slowed. Yes, even a slowdown can benefit, as it gives you (and the other person) time to breath and assimilate what’s happened so far.
Sun/Jupiter Rx leads to the New Moon/Chiron in your social sector. New beginnings involving friends, groups or the public may feature a high degree of empathy and compassion, but the square from Mars suggests issues involving money, intimacy or psychological tension will stir things up below the surface and result in some public embarrassments.

In some cases, a pause in your workload will allow you to make more progress.
