The Sun now enters Pisces for this last month of winter. The weather becomes changeable, mutable, like the energy of Pisces; one minute it’s spring, next one still wintery cold. People’s moods can shift like that weather and become mobile, sensitive, reactive. Pisces calls us to stay warm and dream of better weather and future possibilities, read seed catalogs and plan for an active spring ahead.

Under the Aquarius Sun we philosophized, now we dream new possibilities into being. When spring arrives and the Sun enters Aries we initiate change, revolution, evolution and rebirth. The Sun heads next into Taurus when we plant our gardens and add determination to our changes. This yearly cycle calls us to dream deep now, catch up with our feelings and our spiritual healing, and let our imagination play. But let’s choose carefully what we vote for with our imagination.

Even though Pisces asks us to slow down, dream and plan, we still might chafe at the bit to push forward. Venus and Mars form a motivating engine as they run conjunct- first in Capricorn, then Aquarius- for an unusually long period of time this spring. Mars encourages us to act on anything Venus cares about. Which is wonderful when we want to paint, work, or love but can be surprisingly tricky if we want to invade another country.
