For the Week of March 18, 2010


The Aquarium Age is a report on the general astrological patterns of the coming week for all signs, not just Aquariums.


This week carries a curious dual signature. Externally, daily life bustles as Mars Direct finally provides traction for plans and projects. Yet internally, powerful unconscious forces, personal as well as collective, exert a strong pull toward introspection. And while prevailing opinion tends to view external and internal modes of existence as oppositional, what's curious about this week is how clearly our internal and external worlds can be seen as complementary. Moving within and without always requires skill—you have to be able to straddle two perspectives simultaneously. But the result is always worthwhile, because aligning these two realms strengthens the unity of mind and body, as well as head and heart.

We just finished the first full week of Mars Direct, and although we are still in the beginning phase, Mars' forward motion is deeply motivational. Mars is all about muscles and movement, which is why you or someone you love could suddenly crave activity. Whether that means dusting of the bike, skates, swim goggles, or running shoes, Mars can put you in the mood to "just do it." This is the perfect time of year to put bodies in motion, and if for some reason physical motion isn't possible, move your mind. Stagnation is simply not an option. Not this week. The Sun enters Aries on March 20, the Vernal Equinox, and in the Northern Hemisphere, that means it's spring and we are out of the hibernation cave and into life. A Sun/Mars trine amplifies this seasonal emergence—Sun, in Aries, and Mars, in Leo—a fiery combination that is certain to spark creative fires. Allow this passionate energy to ignite your enthusiasm for life. The winter doldrums are done. Yes, Saturn opposes the Sun in Aries, but that's not enough to dampen a spring spirit.

A Sun/Uranus conjunction, in Pisces, in combination with Jupiter (also Pisces, but not part of the conjunction), provides the internal pull of the week. Pisces, highly sensitive and susceptible to suggestion, tends to live in the imaginal realms (which is probably why some people assume that every Pisces is psychic). When Uranus and the Sun, both vital, active and creative forces, share the same space, they stimulate nervous systems. And even though this conjunction won't last for long—not even for the entire week—it lasts long enough to provide inspiration and vision about the coming year. You may not be able to see the entire picture, but the fire created by the Sun/Mars trine will generate enough light for glimpses. Use these "flash forwards" to contemplate what it is you want to create during the coming growing season. Don't be afraid to dream big—Jupiter is also in Pisces, and by the end of April, as Jupiter begins its conjunction with Uranus, the world is going to open wide with possibilities.

As I often write, we can only create what we can envision. That's one of the threads that unites the internal and external dimension of life. What we create isn't always an exact replication of what we've imagined, but the more we practice aligning body, mind, heart, and soul, the closer we get to co-creating a world that is congruent with our best intentions.
