March 13th, 2019: Exaggerated Potential

  • Sun in Pisces sextile Pluto in Capricorn (22 deg)

  • Sun in Pisces square Jupiter in Sagittarius (23 deg)

The Sun can bring life to an important potential, but you’ll have to keep an eye on perspective.

Pluto adds intensity to the Pisces Sun’s dream. The vision, vague possibility or belief is given substance as deeper reservoirs of passion and power are accessed. Pluto in Capricorn redefines the rules through intense transformation, or the focus of power. This is what will bring depth to the vision and passion to the belief.

Jupiter will pump things up with excitement and limitless potential as it expands Pisces’ already fluid boundaries. Now we have the BIG dream or EUPHORIC belief. You have Pluto intensity and Jupiter amplification, but a hard aspect to Jupiter always triggers exaggeration. Even if the core is sound, realistic perspective will be lost.

Don’t turn away from this – there’s definitely something to work with. But keep reminding yourself that perspective is everything. This can be very good but it won’t be as magical or limitless as it seems right now. If you can, dial it back a sniff – it will be easy to expect too much.

This influence will continue to develop through March 16th as Mercury Rx in Pisces hits the same degrees.

  • Sun in Pisces sextile Saturn in Capricorn (18 deg)

Saturn’s rules gently give form to Sun in Pisces’ dreams. What’s ethereal will remain so unless you focus, plan for the future and ground the issue in your reality. But it’s always your choice, and the sextile does not insist. This easy aspect hints at what you might do if you wanted to corral that beautiful vision and make it work for you.

Or maybe you’re happy to enjoy the moment and let it run through your hands. It’s up to you.

March 7th, 2019: Ultimate Focus

  • Sun conjunct Vesta in Pisces (17 deg)

Carrying forward the energy of yesterday’s New Moon, Sun/Vesta is the sacred (Vesta) flame (Sun). Vesta is named after the goddess of the hearth whose Vestal Virgins tended the flame in her temple. She is about purity and absolute focus. Her limits contain the heat of devotion (the flame) which focuses energy in a particular direction. I see her as Saturn with passion.

In Pisces, the flame is watery and transcendent. But this in no way dilutes the sacred vision. The Sun can bring life and purpose to something ultimate that you’re focused on – a higher goal, a spiritual quest, a healing quest, a dream. The Water element suggests limitless possibilities, but Vesta’s limits give those possibilities form. Divination is another possibility.

This could be something that feels heightened and out of reach. And yet, your attention is being drawn here for a reason.

February 27th, 2019: Pisces Sun Sextile Mars

  • Sun in Pisces sextile Mars in Taurus (9 deg)

Sun/Mars presents a gentle boost of initiative. Mars in Taurus is gradual movement and this will ground Pisces’ dreams. It won’t present as a radical surge of “do it” energy, but if you’re conscious of what’s happening you should be able to sense quiet potential.

Good for manifestation if you’re prepared to get real and if you have patience. The confidence to make it happen is based on physical effort and proof.

Look at what you can do right now. What are some practical steps that you can take? Nothing fancy and nothing fast- this is about taking a dream and planting it in the ground. Pisces is the exalted potential that waters the earth and Mars in Taurus expends the effort to make it grow.

Pisces Season, 2019

by  •

The Sun enters Pisces this evening (February 18th) at 6:03 pm EST. This is the season where nothing is defined and everything (or nothing) is possible. It all depends on how you work with the energy of transcendence, allowance, release and spirituality.

Pisces is an expansive influence because boundaries are dissolved. But it’s often difficult to place any values on what expands because this is not about material gain. More is possible, but only if you release control and expectations. This is very much about going with the flow and trusting that it will take you to the perfect place at the perfect time.

This energy can be soothing or confusing, healing or undermining. As the last sign, endings can occur as situations gently but relentlessly dissolve. You simply cannot hold onto what’s fading away. But if you remain open, something new can flow in just as easily.

This year, expansion is boosted thanks to a square from Jupiter in Sag. This is the “no limits” aspect, but we always have to use to caution with hard aspects to Jupiter – there will be exaggeration or overestimation.

Here are the aspects the Pisces Sun will make:

  • Feb 19th: Full Moon (0 deg Virgo)

  • Feb 23rd: square Juno in Gemini (4 deg)

  • Feb 27th: sextile Mars in Taurus (9 deg)

  • Feb 28th: square Ceres in Sagittarius (9 deg)

  • Mar 6th: New Moon (15 deg Pisces)

  • Mar 6th: conjunct Neptune (16 deg)

  • Mar 7th: conjunct Vesta (17 deg)

  • Mar 9th: sextile Saturn in Capricorn (18 deg)

  • Mar 13th: sextile Pluto in Capricorn (22 deg)

  • Mar 13th: square Jupiter in Sagittarius (23 deg)

  • Mar 14th: conjunct Mercury Rx (24 deg)

  • Mar 15th: trine the Cancer North Node (24 deg)

  • Mar 17th: inconjunct Pallas Rx in Libra (27 deg)

  • Mar 20th: Aries ingress
