The New Moon appeared on March 29 at 5:58 am ET, followed by a partial solar eclipse at 6:13 a.m. When the Moon moves between the Earth and the Sun, the energy-fields of all three bodies line up, it’s a bit like an energy-reboot. The energy lines of the Earth go through a clearing. It’s possible to feel the eclipse for a few days before and possibly weeks after the event.

The New Moon appeared on March 29 at 5:58 am ET, followed by a partial solar eclipse at 6:13 a.m. When the Moon comes between the Earth and the Sun, the energy-fields of all three bodies line up, it’s a bit like an energy-reboot. The energy lines of the Earth go through a shake-up or clearing. It’s possible to feel the eclipse for a few days before and possibly weeks after the event.

In astrology, eclipses are known to encourage personal evolution and cause unforeseen circumstances. The universe brings aspects of life into the light in a sudden, unexpected way. Astrologer Paden Jenkins advises, “On the eclipse itself, note your thoughts and what’s coming up within and around you. It’s an oracular, omen-rich time. Note seed-thoughts coming up, observe fears and anticipations, say goodbye to some things and hello to other things. There’s something very deep about eclipses.”

Sun and Moon are on Aries 9, and the Sabian Symbol is “A Crystal Gazer”, which refers to the ability to focus the all-seeing aspect of the subtle mind from a holistic point of view. It refers to seeing the “All” in the One or One in All from a higher perspective. seeing the whole picture with love from a holistic perspective.

Sun, Moon, and Mercury are in Aries, a fiery, passionate sign that rules the head and may be headstrong. It stimulates the mind, and loves new beginnings. (It is the beginning of the astrological wheel, symbolizing the arrival of spring and the rebirth that follow.)

Sun (life) and Moon (emotions) conjunct Mercury (thought, communication), enhancing mental acuity, stream of consciousness, and self-expression. Moon conjunct Venus (relationships, love) increases peace and harmony—and the ability to express love in a way that the other person can easily perceive. Sun and Moon conjunct Neptune (mysticism, illusion) brings the opportunity to see beyond the illusion of who we think we are and into the greater, mystical self. It also gives the ability to see through our illusions (or karma) and release them.

Mercury (communication, electronics) in Aries is retrograde until April 7, which can create misunderstandings, delays with communication, and electrical problems. It can aid with completing projects and reviewing aspects of goals, desires, and the course of life. Mercury conjunct Venus (relationships, love) helps with expression of love, and it expands both peace and harmony. Mercury conjunct Mars (assertion, overall energy) gives energy for writing, communicating, and sharing thoughts. It sharpens the intellect. Mercury conjunct Neptune (mysticism, illusion) focuses the mind on the occult, mysticism, and hidden secrets.

Venus (love, relationships) retrograde is in Pisces, the place of its exaltation. It encourages unconditional love and empathy. Venus trine Mars (assertion, overall energy) brings balance and positive communication between the sexes. Venus conjunct Saturn (limitation, karma, time) increases the feeling of vulnerability. It encourages working on greater self-confidence and self-love. Venus conjunct Neptune (illusion, mysticism) heightens sensitivity, artistic ability, and compassion.

Mars is placed in Cancer is protective of the self.. It places emphasis on the home and family.  Mars trine Saturn (karma, limitation) gives strength, persistence, and patience to complete difficult tasks. Mars trine Neptune heightens selflessness and spiritual awareness. It gives a great deal of energy, acting as a powerhouse to complete and move through tasks.

Saturn (limitation, karma) in Pisces may refer to the past karma of the Piscean Age. Currently, Saturn is conjunct Neptune (mysticism, illusion), which can help in giving form and structure to our dreams and desires.

Jupiter (expansion, good fortune) in Gemini increases interest in electronics, AI, and communication. Jupiter square Saturn (limitation, karma) asks for creating a new self while discerning what is valuable and what’s limited within old self. From this point, we move into the new self while releasing the old patterns, beliefs, and limitations.

Uranus (sudden change, quantum field) in Taurus refers to the earth—perhaps the new and old earth. During its placement in Taurus, we’ve become more aware of pollution, destruction, and earth changes. Uranus rules change, and perhaps we can focus on creating positive change for the earth. Uranus sextiles Neptune (illusion, mysticism) and trines Pluto (subconscious, transformation), indicating and supporting a time of spiritual growth.

In this chart, Sun (life), Moon (emotion), Mercury (communication), and Venus (relationships) conjunct Uranus (sudden change, quantum field). The conjunctions can bring sudden changes and shifts along with a desire for greater freedom in the areas of life, emotion, communication, and love. Uranus asks for authenticity and innovation, which is inherent in the changes that it brings into form.

Neptune (illusion, mysticism) is placed in Pisces, which gathers the subconscious and greater consciousness on an emotional level. (For example, when we heard about this week’s earthquake, it’s natural to send compassion and light for healing as a group.) Neptune will move into Aries, a fire sign, on March 30, and it move back into Pisces when it goes into retrograde. It’s a huge shift, and we’ll experience a very different type of energy.

Pluto (subconscious, transformation) in Gemini, an air sign, can expand communications, space travel, and satellites—and perhaps even psychic communication.
