Lunar position – Aquarius – Even with the Moon in Aquarius, your emotional presence is strong today and you express feelings of generosity and optimism to others.

Refer to the current Esoteric Influences for more information regarding today’s influences.
Sign strength – Aquarius and Pisces provide the strongest sign influences today involving expressions of sensitivity and compassion (Pisces) as well as an innovative and emotionally aloof approach (Aquarius).
Significant Aspects or patterns that may inspire or inform magickal workings. The Ascendant, North/South Nodes, as well as Lilith aspects are in their own categories below:
Stelliums (power interactions)
- Sun/Vulcan/Venus/Neptune – with the addition of Venus, we have a 4 point stellium reinforcing a breakthrough in creative and/or loving self-expression along a new path forward. (reflects strong conjunctions between the Sun/Vulcan; Sun/Neptune; and a medium conjunction between the Sun and Venus)
Additional Aspects
- Mercury (11th/Aquarius) semisquare Chiron (12th/Aries) – suggests the need to think before speaking today and to consider the viewpoints of others.
- Mercury (11th/Aquarius) sextile Juno (8th/Sagittarius) – suggests a career focus surrounding the law or counseling where the rights of others are preserved
- Venus (12th/Pisces) opposite Vesta (6th/Virgo) – describes the sacredness of close relationships and the preservation of home and hearth.
- Mars (2nd/Gemini) square Pallas (11th/Pisces) – indicates the need to see the overall picture before acting or judging so that conflict doesn’t occur.
- Saturn (11th/Aquarius) square Uranus (1st/Taurus) – describes issues with authority and compromise furthered on by inadequacy.
- Saturn (11th/Aquarius) sextile Chiron (12th/Aries) – indicates perseverance through emotional difficulties and from that experience to assist others on their own path.
- Neptune (12th/Pisces) square Juno (8th/Sagittarius) – describes the need to see others realistically, especially when providing assistance or selecting a partner.
- Chiron (12th/Aries) conjunct Ceres (12th/Aries) – this provides the sensitivity to not only see your own childhood woundings with clarity but to assist others in the same process.
Ascendant – Aries – describes an individual who is motivated and takes initiative. Self-reliance, self-assertion, and strong leadership skills are valued as well.
Aspects include: Pluto square The Ascendant – indicates possible tension in relationships if you cannot control your assertive or aggressive behavior
Black Moon Lilith ~ Taurus — remaining in your comfort zone is tempting, but it also signals an unwillingness to take risks toward a better outcome. In the 1st House of self and identity, the risk may involve containing the darker aspects of self and the control of one’s ego that may impact self-expression. Lilith’s weaker square with Jupiter cautions against excessive behavior while a sextile with Venus counsels a reliance on intuition and instinct in relationships.
Node influences ~ N Node – Gemini; S Node – Sagittarius describes the need for self-control and a focus on a spiritual perspective. The challenge involves understanding the viewpoints of others as well as expressing your own in a helpful and respectful manner. Cooperation with others is necessary and may be difficult to achieve (Sun square N Node/S Node). A strong square with both the North and South Nodes and Venus indicates the need to strive for equality in your relationships with others which may benefit a trine between Jupiter and the North Node suggesting that past efforts will yield positive results in the future.
Lunar Phase ~ Waning, Balsamic; 3rd Qtr – 5 Mar 2021 at 5:31 PM PST at 15°Sag41′; New Moon on 13 Mar 2021 at 2:22 AM PST at 23°PI03
Mansion of the Moon – 25th – Caadalhacbia – 8°Aqu34′; butterfly spreading forth; revenge and attack, destroys enemies and fosters divorce, reinforces buildings and prisons, useful in spells that prevent sexual intercourse and fosters impotence in men
Retrograde ~ Vesta – now in Virgo, look inward to better define your expectations of others so that you respect their boundaries, input or expertise; Vulcan – in Pisces, go within to reestablish emotional balance and your own boundaries
Polarity – Masculine (9), Feminine (14) – receptive presence is strongest today.
Elemental Influence ~ The Earth element (material concerns) is having the strongest impact today with Air element (intellect, reason, balance, communication) and Water (emotions, empathy) influencing next. Fire (will, creativity, motivation) follows having a lesser impact.
Energetic Sign Quality/Mode ~ Cardinal (motivating, initiating) sign qualities are strongest today.
Rays ~ The 2nd Ray of love and wisdom continues to provide the strongest influence over all other Rays today indicating the strengthening effect of both love and wisdom on our perceptions and interactions with others.
The 6th Ray of devotion and idealism today is slightly less of an influence suggesting that idealism may be expressed in a more rational manner..
The 1st Ray of will and power, the 5th Ray of concrete knowledge and science, and the 7th Ray of ceremonial order and magick are next in strength and in balance with each other suggesting that truth is favored and organized in a way that can be presented to others.
The 3rd Ray of active intelligence has increased its effect on truth and understanding; however, the 4th Ray of harmony through conflict having the least effect today, however, a meeting of the minds may continue to prove challenging.
