Subject: Full Moon 🌕 Saturn in Pisces for Every Sign ✨

Dear Stargazers,


Make no mistake about it: March 7 is a red-letter day. Not only does Saturn enter Pisces, but the Virgo full moon offers a valuable lesson. It's all below, and my apologies for any typos - I'm just happy to have gotten it out before tomorrow!


TRANSITING SATURN IN PISCES

March 7. 2023 - May 24, 2025
August 31, 2025 - February 13, 2026


No matter which zodiac sign your Sun claims as its own, at some point transiting Saturn will pay it a visit, and when it does, on some level each one of us will reap what we've sown


How will you fare under Saturn's scrutiny? That depends on the aspect that Saturn makes to your Sun, as well as what you've been doing (or not doing) until that time.


And now, here is some transiting Saturn guidance for every sign.


Pisces: Karmic Reckoning


If you're born under Pisces, at some point Saturn will conjunct your Sun. This means you're wrapping up a cycle and depending on your past performance, you will experience a time of achievement or a time of disappointment.


Although whatever is sound in your life will continue to go smoothly, it will still require considerable effort and persistence to achieve your goals. This cycle is a test of endurance. If you keep your eye on the prize and continue working towards it with honesty and integrity, you'll ultimately bring home the win.


In contrast, whatever isn't sound will likely collapse. If you experience a personal and/or professional defeat, it's only critical that you understand exactly what went wrong, recognize your role in it and accept responsibility for your actions. If not, when you attempt to regroup, you can expect to repeat the same pattern (lesson). The last thing you want or need is to invest your time, energy and resources in a losing proposition.


Whether you rise or fall during this cycle, one thing is for certain: When a cycle ends, a new one begins, and with new beginnings come second chances. If you experienced this period as a time of achievement, you get a second chance to prove your worth, and if you experienced it as a time of disappointment, you get a second chance to get it right.


Cancer and Scorpio: Karmic Reward


If you're born under Cancer or Scorpio, at some point Saturn will trine your Sun. When it does, you can expect to make great strides with little effort. At this time, your goals are likely to be within reach, and while others may view it as a lucky gift from the Universe, the truth is that it's the result of your past efforts.


Although you may be feeling very satisfied, this isn't a time to settle where you are or rest on past laurels. Instead, use this stable flow of energy to achieve lasting success. Since this energy won't be back anytime soon, it's crucial that you make the most of it.


Gemini and Sagittarius: Karmic Clash


If you're born under Gemini or Sagittarius, at some point Saturn will square your Sun. When it does, you can expect a challenge to rear its head or some type of conflict to arise that will test your commitment to something (or someone) in your life.


If you're on the wrong path, you're likely to encounter enough setbacks to make you feel like you're constantly swimming upstream. If so, it's time to face reality and cut your losses.


Should you be on the right path, you can still expect challenges that test your resolve, but instead of making you feel discouraged, they will promote your ambition and inspire you to rise to the occasion.


Although this cycle is commonly associated with some form of defeat, if you're on the right path and stay the course, Saturn will propel you to success. Like anything else, much depends on what you've been doing up until now. I have witnessed scores of individuals succeed under this cycle, and I stand by this statement 100%.


Virgo: Karmic Slump


If you're born under Virgo, at some point Saturn will oppose your Sun, and when it happens, you're likely to feel as though your back is up against a wall. This cycle often forces a reassessment of some area (or all) of your life, and it's not uncommon to discover that it's time to release something or someone from it.


On another level, it's possible that you could feel physically drained at this time. If so, it's time to evaluate your diet, exercise routine and overall health.


Truth be told, this is often a discouraging cycle but whether you do or to what degree will depend on your circumstances at the time. If you've made good decisions and taken care of your health, this cycle could be the equivalent of an overdue tune-up.


However, should it turn out that you feel defeated during this cycle, the best thing to do is to assess the damage, accept your role in it, cut your losses and plan your comeback from a wiser perspective.


Taurus and Capricorn: Karmic Ease


If you're born under Taurus or Capricorn, at some point Saturn will sextile your Sun. In predictive astrology, a sextile represents opportunities that need to be recognized and developed. This means that you should be on the lookout for helpful people and/or advantageous circumstances that can help you further your personal and/or professional goals, and when you spot any act on them!


Now, if you do nothing of the sort during this cycle, you won't suffer any ill effects or setbacks. However, since Saturn rewards hard work and each Saturn cycle has a direct bearing on subsequent ones, it's best to give it your all and make the most of it.


Leo and Libra: Karmic Squeeze


If you're born under Gemini or Leo, at some point Saturn will quincunx your Sun. When it does, you're likely to experience a situation in some area of your life that will make you feel like you're between a rock and a hard place. Is there a way out? Of course, but it's going to require some type of adjustment that you'll view as inconvenient and/or may feel a bit uncomfortable for you.


On a different note, although it is still considered a minor aspect, the quincunx is strongly associated with potential health issues. Since Saturn represents restriction and the Sun rules the heart and spine, should you experience any symptoms that could be related to the heart or spine, such as restricted circulation or back issues, it's a good idea to check them out.


Aquarius and Aries: Karmic Relief


If you're born under Aquarius or Aries, at some point Saturn will make a semi-sextile to your Sun. This minor aspect has such a mild influence that you can expect to remain under Saturn's radar.


Having been the subject of Saturn's scrutiny the past few years, this cycle is a welcome relief for Aquarius.


As for Aries, it's the last hurrah before the celestial taskmaster focuses its attention on you.

FULL MOON at 16°40' VIRGO
March 7, 2023 • 7:42 AM EST


With Mars squaring the Sun and Moon, you can expect this month's full moon to bring any buried or long-standing resentments to a boiling point. Most of the time, such an event clears the air, and after the dust settles everyone knows where they stand, and the issues that need to be resolved.


Unfortunately, that's not likely to be the case here, because Neptune is conjunct the Sun, opposite the Moon and square Mars. As a result, whatever conscious (Sun) and emotional (moon) clarity one would expect from the Virgo full moon is blurred by Neptune's foggy influence, and with Mars square the planet of imagination, it will be easy to make a mountain out of a molehill and/or lose sight of the original issue.


Should a conflict arise in your life, you (or someone else's) kneejerk reaction may be to mete out a strong dose of tough love. If so, you're experiencing the lunar side (Virgo) of this full moon. If on the other hand, your kneejerk reaction is to accept all the blame, you're experiencing the solar side of this full moon.


While every full moon focuses on a particular theme, it isn't intended to be one-sided. Its purpose is to make us aware of a particular issue and if need be bring it into balance in our lives.


In that respect, this full moon will offer many of you the opportunity to master the lesson of balancing accountability (Virgo) with forgiveness (Pisces).


Getting Personal


The house in your horoscope that holds this full moon is where the action is in your chart, and something related to one (or more) of the life areas ruled by it may come to light, to fruition or to an end. If you don't know which house holds 16°40' Virgo in your horoscope, you can read your rising sign if you know it or you can refer to the list below to find out where the full moon falls in your solar (sun-sign based) chart.


If your Sun sign is:


Aries, it falls in your 6th house (health, work, pets, diet, nutrition).

Taurus, it falls in your 5th house (romance, children, creative self-expression, entertainment).

Gemini, it falls in your 4th house (home, family, real estate, parents).

Cancer, it falls in your solar 3rd house (siblings, neighbors, short trips, cars, contracts, negotiations.).

Leo, it falls in your 2nd house (income, spending, personal values, self-esteem, tangible assets).

Virgo, it falls in your 1st house (your physical body, attitude towards life).

Libra, it falls in your 12th house (spirituality, creativity, mental health, addictions).

Scorpio, it falls in your 11th house (groups, associations, hopes, casual friends, colleagues).

Sagittarius, it falls in your 10th house (career, fame, status, reputation).

Capricorn, it falls in your 9th house (education, law, religion, foreign and long-distance travel, publishing).

Aquarius, it falls in your 8th house (intimacy, shared resources, other people's support, birth, death, estate matters).

Pisces, it falls in your 7th house (marriage and all one-to-one relationships including best friends, adversaries, business partners and clients).


Releasing with the Virgo Full Moon


You can release anything under any full moon, but when it's saturated in Virgo energy, it's especially favorable for releasing:


Negative beliefs or attitudes connected to employment, serving others, your health, healing, nutrition, diet, exercise, co-workers, employees and pets.


Traits and tendencies to be critical, sarcastic, bitter, cynical, apathetic, anxious, irritable, fussy, a perfectionist, judgmental or a martyr.

That's it for this week's newsletter. If you enjoyed it and find it helpful, please share it!


Until next time,


May Jupiter's blessings be your constant companion,
