Stargazing — Week of Feb. 24th through March 2nd, 2025
We can all breathe a collective sigh of relief now that Mars has turned direct. Now it’s full steam ahead toward limitless horizons and our astrological New Year. This New Year is special because we not only celebrate a New Year but a new Zodiac wheel bringing in a new era as well.
This year March comes in like a lion and out like a killer shark. Retrogrades hit us again in March as well as two Eclipses, the Spring Equinox and Neptune changing signs. Venus retrogrades in Aries as March opens, and Mercury follows suit on the 14th, also in Aries. On top of that is the Full Moon Eclipse in Virgo, also on the 14th followed by the Spring Equinox on the 21st. There’s a Solar Eclipse in Aries on the 29th; then Neptune skips over the old zodiac into Aries at month’s end. (March 30th)
March promises to be one of the most interesting and exciting months of the entire year, but you will need to concentrate in order to harness these energies to work in your favor instead of fighting them.
Venus and Mercury retrograde will actually help you to stop, look, listen and observe the situation. First, we have the last days in February to slow down and enjoy. Monday and Tuesday are excellent days to think outside the box to come to some innovative solutions. Thursday and Friday are also upbeat days where anything could happen so keep a loose schedule and dare to try new things.
Saturday brings March beating a different drum as Venus turns retrograde. You could have some setbacks in anything regarding beauty, housing, or your personal appearance. Don’t schedule any cosmetic surgery until Venus comes out of retrograde on April 12th. Venus retrograde can be helpful in resolving issues from the past regarding love, finances, or creativity. If you reach out to the one who got away, you could get a second chance or at least gain some closure.
Also, if you have an artistic project gathering dust, bring it back into the light. You could have some stunning success with it over the next 6 weeks.
Sunday is a powerful day to get a creative project off the ground. Slow down and slow yourself to become intuitively aware of your environment and what you’d like to accomplish, without the need to impose your will.
