The Forecast ~ 17-23 March 2024
The Forecast is a comprehensive look at the weekly planetary information and the daily forecast. The planetary information presented is from daily astrological charts over the week that align with the planetary governor for each day, while the daily information is gleaned from each day’s I Ching-based Human Design chart, runes from both the Elder Futhark, geomancy, and numerology. The astrological and Human Design charts are cast for 8:00 am Pacific time.
Retrograde Planets – Juno
Cosmic Rays – Over the week, you shape your reality by manifesting a balance between the higher self and ego. This is a time when wisdom is challenged by extreme idealism and higher truth struggles to be heard. During the latter part of the week, the expression of will increases, and the outcome could become more important than the process taken if the ego is dominant.
The Sun
- 12th House/Pisces; 12th House/Aries 3/19-23
- Sunday influences: 8; Laguz, Puer; Human Design Gate/Line 33.6 Justice; Moon Phase: Waxing, 1st Quarter; Rays – 7th; 2nd/6th
The Sun’s influence impacts an individual’s identity, vitality, and ego expression. How you express yourself this week may require some reflection especially if it becomes clear that you’re not getting your message across. It may be that you’re missing cues that would normally cause you to change your approach. If this involves a close partner, asking for feedback may be appropriate so that a better understanding is achieved. Although you might reach your ultimate goal, you could be asserting yourself so powerfully that others feel they have nothing to offer or that their viewpoints won’t be considered.
Sunday, 17 March 2024
You believe that justice overshadows darkness and when that’s in jeopardy, it causes you great concern or anxiety. That’s why if a situation becomes unstable or risky today, it’s best to exercise your inner strength to approach the problem in a balanced manner. A lack of impulse control could be the source of the instability and it’s creating an unmanageable risk. Follow your intuition and make sure you don’t become part of the problem.
The Moon
- Various signs and houses: 3rd/Cancer 3/17-18; 4th/Cancer 3/19; 4th/Leo 3/20; 5th/Leo 3/21; 5th/Virgo 3/22-23
- Monday Influences: 9, Dagaz, Acquisitio; Human Design Gate/Line 53.1 Accumulation; Moon Phase: Waxing, 1st Quarter; Rays – 7th; 2nd/6th
The Moon’s interaction with the various signs throughout the week impacts an individual’s emotions, moods, and vulnerabilities. An unexpected situation may arise where someone may look to you for support at the beginning of the week. Be sure you understand the situation before reacting or offering any suggestions. As the week continues, your home life may become unstable and you may feel a lack of support or security. It could be that others in the family are having their own issues that have nothing to do with you and taking things personally won’t help anyone. If so, focusing on routine tasks may provide the break everyone needs to get things back on track.
During the latter part of the week, you attract others with your positivity and adventuresome nature. However, if they are depending on you to stay organized, you could become erratic or unreliable leading to unnecessary conflict. Stay grounded and don’t allow mood swings to impact your interactions.
Monday, 18 March 2024
As one period comes to an end, a new one begins that reflects your ideals and strong foundation. You’ve maintained a level of progress that can be applied to new opportunities and experiences. Today’s rune, Dagaz, symbolizes that process by its energy of endings and beginnings. All doors are open and all options are available for achieving your success.
Mars
- 11th House/Aquarius; 11th House/Pisces 3/22-23
- Tuesday’s Influences: 1; Raidho, Cauda Draconis; Human Design Gate/Line 30.4 Burnout; Moon Phase: Waxing, 1st Quarter; Rays 7th, 2nd/6th; Spring Equinox at 8:06p PDT; Ostara begins
Mars invokes action, courage, passion, and strength in an individual. Throughout the week, you focus your energy on issues that reflect progressive values and social justice and you inspire others to do the same. However, be careful not to push your ideas on others or jump to conclusions without knowing all the facts. If tension or irritability increases, you may attempt to over-nurture others which may be unwelcome, or you could sacrifice your own needs to keep the peace. At the end of the week, you may need to reconsider how you assert yourself to avoid further conflict.
Tuesday, 19 March 2024
The Spring Equinox marks the beginning of Spring and occurs in the Northern Hemisphere this evening at 8:06p, and, like the new flowers that are pushing upward, you’re eager to begin anew. You’re ready to let go of choices and behavior that prevent success and express the talent and leadership that will support you in new endeavors. Ostara, a pagan holiday that celebrates the return of Spring and new beginnings, also begins this evening and ends tomorrow. Celebrate this wonderful holiday by decorating your home and/or creating an altar that includes representations of renewal. Fresh flowers and an egg or two, especially if you’re lucky enough to raise chickens, can be included, as well as anything else that represents the beginning of Spring. Or you can decorate an egg and then bury it next to a garden space to symbolize fertility. Whatever you choose to do, Ostara Blessings to all!
Mercury
- 12th House/Aries
- Wednesday’s Influences: 2, Hagalaz, Caput Draconis, Human Design Gate/Line 51.4 Limitation; Moon Phase: Waxing, 1st Quarter; Rays: 1st; Ostara ends
Mercury influences an individual’s communication style, thought processes, and how one negotiates or transacts with others. Your intuition is strong this week and it influences you to consider pursuing an education-oriented career. You may also seek approval from someone by supporting them at the expense of your own needs. At the end of the week, you relax with a partner and postpone a serious conversation for a later time.
Wednesday, 20 March 2024
An interesting synchronicity exists between yesterday’s geomancy rune, Cauda Draconis, and its complement, Caput Draconis, today’s geomancy rune. Cauda represents endings while Caput indicates new beginnings. And while yesterday’s rune was Dagaz, a perfect representation of the end of one phase and the beginning of another, today’s Norn rune, Hagalaz invokes the ability to transform your experiences. In addition, Ostara, which began yesterday and ends today, celebrates the return of Spring. All of these influences create the foundation for new beginnings, and considering today’s numerology of two, it also suggests those new beginnings will reflect harmony, kindness, and collaboration. So, let go of any limitations you might feel and embrace the transformation that Springtime represents.
Jupiter
- 1st House/Taurus
- Thursday’s Influences: 3, Ehwaz, Carcer, Human Design Gate/Line 2.3 Patience; Moon Phase: Waxing, Crescent; Rays: 2nd/6th, 1st/7th
Jupiter is the planet of expansion and influences an individual’s growth, luck, abundance, and self-confidence. You’re willing to take risks that lead you in a new direction this week, however, there may be obstacles that impact progress. That said, you can rely on your self-confidence to carry you through. On a personal front, although most of your relationships thrive this week, there may be one that appears to have run its course and some reassessment may be necessary. At the end of the week, you express your individuality and attract others with your adventurous personality.
Thursday, 21 March 2024
Someone you have collaborated with in the past may bring you a new opportunity to explore today. Although this may involve new ideas that you’re unfamiliar with, don’t allow any preconceived notions to impact learning something new. This is a time to let your imagination flow and enjoy the new experience.
Venus
- 11th House/Pisces
- Friday’s Influences: 22; Tiwaz, Albus; Human Design Gate/Line 63.3 Continuance; Moon Phase: Waxing, Gibbous; Rays: 1st/7th
Venus, the planet of attraction, happiness, harmony, and beauty, reflects the feminine aspect and how an individual loves and expresses intimacy and self-worth. Tension either at work or in your personal life, continues this week. Your view of commitment may not align with that of others and issues of control may surface and impact how well you support each other. Much of the tension could surround setting realistic boundaries or an unwillingness to compromise. Or it could be that you have difficulty balancing your own needs with the needs of others. At the end of the week, support from family increases.
Friday, 22 March 2024
Today’s Master 22 energy invokes profound change and alignment with others, allowing you to manifest from a higher vibratory state. This allows you to contribute to a project or situation in a manner that preserves your values and principles irrespective of what others might be doing. You express yourself with higher wisdom and clarity and it’s clear your ideals shape your goals.
Saturn
- 11th House/Pisces
- Saturday’s Influences: 5; Fehu, Fortuna Major; Human Design Gate/Line 63.2 Structuring; Moon Phase: Waxing, Gibbous; Rays: 1st/7th
The planet Saturn slows things down, invoking realism, boundaries, restraint, and the impact of time on an individual. A relationship with a partner could become challenging over the week, especially if finances are involved. Although you may not see eye to eye about how to manage your resources, you’re open to considering a new perspective. As the week continues, connecting emotionally with your partner becomes difficult leading you to feel isolated. On the work front, a situation may arise that you need to more fully understand before making a decision.
Saturday, 23 March 2024
A collaborative effort may benefit from some restructuring, especially if someone in the group doesn’t feel respected or supported. Taking the time to understand the needs and opinions of everyone will demonstrate that a shared, progressive approach is better than one person trying to control all aspects of the narrative.
