Astrology: Spring Equinox, March 19, 2024 - Part 2 - Chart

Sink or Swim
 
Just a week before the year's first eclipse, as we enter a very positive period of the year, with three strong Jupiter aspects,
Apr 20 – Jupiter conjunct Uranus, May 23 – Jupiter sextile Neptune,
Jun 02 – Jupiter trine Pluto, with Jupiter sextile Saturn still in orb,  the chart itself is quite simple and striking.

1- Moon, Sun, Pluto triangle of potential
We have a tight Moon in Cancer-Pluto in Aquarius opposition, on the cusp of the sign, which gives added energy. There was also a Moon-Pluto opposition in last year's Summer chart, which was quite a tumultuous season. It is in positive trine and sextile aspects to the Sun, which is conjunct to Neptune, forming a strong triangle of potential, which gives the aspect pattern exceptional support for dealing with the opposition.

Moon opposition Pluto
An issue from the past, or something hidden may come up, or one could lose something. Intensity in one's personal relationships and/or some sort of inner emotional turmoil is possible.

 

Sun sextile Pluto Opportunities to find or renew something lost, and to gain some power are possible. There energy and drive to accomplish things.

 

Sun trine Moon Achievement is smooth. Recuperative powers are increased. The possibility of some form of recognition or validation for what you do may come. It’s a good time to mend relationship problems and to surround yourself with people.


Sun conjunct Neptune

There is a strong desire for peace and harmony and perhaps some sense that one has to make sacrifices for that end. One may behave in an impractical manner, or  be vulnerable to deception or betrayal. There can be illusions and confusion, or it can be a very inspired.


2- Mars square Uranus.

Mars square Uranus was exact on March 9. It can be quite volatile and effects can start to be felt roughly two weeks before March 9 and  lasting until two weeks after. Downside: violent manifestations. Upshot: Mars energy can be used positively, or good time to learn to deal with it. It's nature is rebellious, restless, impulsive. It can bring accidents, sudden changes and fluctuating energy.


3- Venus, which is conjunct with Saturn, is sextile to the oncoming Jupiter conjunct Uranus.

Venus sextile Jupiter  This is a cooperative, happy influence. Consideration for others, cheerfulness, and a positive attitude towards relationships are themes now.

 

Venus conjunct Saturn
Relationships are stabilized and steady, although feelings are expressed reservedly, formally, or sparingly. Problems in personal relationships that have been swept under the carpet may surface now, and we are ready to face them. Support from older people or authority figures may come. Renewed ties to old friends are possible.

Jupiter conjunct Uranus, brings of feeling of high spirits, ready to discover, explore, and innovate. This transit is exciting, futuristic, and original. The need for progressive change becomes glaringly apparent under this influence. 

Summary
Coming off a volatile Mars square Uranus on March 9, we begin the astrological new year moving into Aries with some very positive aspects. The striking Moon opposite Pluto aspect signals some emotional turmoil, relationship tensions, but there are strong motivations for resolving past difficulties.  Moon in Cancer gives a strong focus on families issues. The chart has five planets in water signs, so overall, the chart brings an emotional, introspective focus, a deep dive into the unconscious, as it were. Only Mercury is in a fire sign, Aries, so there should still be some outspoken intellectual sharpness. The Mars square Uranus aspect could still have an influence for another week, and the volatile Mars square Pluto will bring some tensions to the beginning of June in an otherwise very favorable period. Venus in Pisces inspires one to be all-embracing, forgive and understand in a very stable and responsible manner, thus further reinforcing the potential for dealing with anxieties, as we enter a more optimistic, adventuresome period.
 
Prognostic
The chart is strongly geared to resolving past issues or conflicts, healing traumas or discovering or recovering something or someone from the past. There is a significant amount of combative Mars energy of a volatile potential. There is also a potential to enjoy an optimistic, cheerful, cooperative, progressive period where projects of social change can enter the picture.
