Major Changes on the Horizon with a Full Moon in Virgo and Saturn Entering Pisces

 

This is a big month for change astrologically and we will have a perfect example of how this will play out on March 7 when we have a Full Moon in 16 degrees of Virgo at 7:40 a.m. and then Saturn enters Pisces at 8:35 a.m.  

Full Moons are considered to be times of closure and completion.  They can also reveal secrets and be quite emotionally chaotic.  A Full Moon in Virgo has themes of responsibility and duties trying to find some balance with the Pisces issues of escapism and compassion for others.  There is a strong theme of service to others laced with empathy.  It can be a healing time too, because Venus and Chiron were conjunct in 13 degrees of Aries on March 3.  This conjunction, only a day after the Venus-Jupiter conjunction in Aries on March 2, can bring deeper awareness of our emotional wounds. It will be important for all of us to get grounded on this day.  Mars in Gemini is factoring in heavily in this Full Moon too because both the Sun in Pisces and the Moon in Virgo are squaring it, so expect some explosions and temper tantrums. Uranus in 15 degrees of Taurus is trining the Moon and sextiling the Sun in Pisces.  With Uranus in the mix, technology and the Internet can be affected.  But Uranus in favorable aspects to the Full Moon will help us be more open to the changes we need to implement.

There are a lot of mutable planets on this Full Moon: the Sun, Mercury and Neptune in Pisces, the Moon in Virgo and Mars in Gemini.  Then Saturn moves into Pisces. I like to call this a Mutable Mash and it also fosters the ability to adapt to whatever changes are coming down the pike.  It is highly likely that many of us will feel overwhelmed with this Full Moon (spoiler alert) but we do have the tools to survive it and come out on the other side.  I personally think of it as a clearing Full Moon because it falls in my 12th house.

Saturn will be entering Pisces less than an hour later. It will remain in Pisces through February 2026.  Saturn is not terribly comfortable in Pisces because the Saturn theme of structure is not Pisces' bag.  Let's face it, Pisces is mutable water, it wants to flow and is averse to structure.  Saturn rules Capricorn and Aquarius, which for the past five years, has given us lockdowns, a pandemic and social distancing.  As a fixed sign, I am thrilled that Saturn is leaving Aquarius.  When Saturn enters Pisces, it will be trining my natal Mercury in Scorpio and I look forward to that. Saturn in Pisces will be trining all of my Scorpio and Cancer planets, which is a lot easier than the squares and opposition to my natal Pluto in Leo that I have endured with Saturn in Aquarius. I think that all of the fixed signs will be quite happy about this and will be heaving a collective sigh of relief.  Saturn in Pisces symbolizes an ending of the old world because Pisces is the last sign of the zodiac and we could be dealing with some disillusionment and dissolution of those old structures.

Some of the other themes of Saturn in Pisces include healing and a testing of our spiritual beliefs. We might find ourselves developing more self-discipline around our spirituality. It can be a time of doing the work to make our dreams come true.  Just remember that Saturn requires us to be patient and diligent. If you have ever contemplated starting a meditation practice, this is the time to do it. Surrender to a Higher Power just might be in the cards.

It might be helpful for those of us who are old enough to think back to the last time Saturn was in Pisces.  The previous Saturn in Pisces transit occurred from May 1993 through April 1996.  Anyone born during this period will be experiencing their first Saturn Return in the next 2 1/2 years.  Saturn was also in Pisces from March 1964 to March 1966, and we all know that this was a time of  major social changes.  These folks will be having their second Saturn Return. Prior to that, Saturn was in Pisces from February 1935 to January 1938.  During that time, we had the Great Depression, the implementation of Social Security and Alcoholics Anonymous was born.  I don't think that anyone can dispute that alcoholism is a very Piscean theme, because let's face it, escapism and addiction are part of the shadow side of Pisces. Compulsive activities and a tendency towards playing the victim or martyr are also manifestations of the shadow side of Pisces.  When Saturn is in Pisces, we will be forced to deal with these issues.  But I firmly believe that Saturn in Pisces can indeed be a time of establishing more compassionate structures in our society and history bears this out.

This is only the beginning of the changes coming in the month of March.  Pluto enters Aquarius on March 23 and Mars enters Cancer on March 25.  Stay tuned for more info on these events in future posts.  But be mindful that this is a game-changing month...

If you are curious about how all of these planetary changes will be affecting you personally, please consider getting an astrological reading. These are very challenging and unique times; an astrological reading could provide some much-needed clarity and guidance.  An astrology reading makes a very thoughtful gift. As an astrologer and a healer, I am delighted to be able to include a Health and Wellbeing Report that provides a focus on health-related matters in the natal chart and offers nutritional advice and stress management tips.  Who couldn’t use that these days?

The coronavirus outbreak caused me to increase the number of distant Reiki sessions I do because people were concerned about the spread of the infection. I have decided to suspend my in-person Reiki sessions until further notice in order to practice social distancing. I no longer have my Brookline office, so all of my Reiki sessions will be distant Reiki sessions for the foreseeable future. But a distant Reiki session is the perfect opportunity to safely build up your immune system and if you have contracted coronavirus, you can be treated safely from the comfort of your home. My procedure is to have a conversation with a client about what they hope to achieve from a session, we set up a time for the session to take place when they will be in a state to receive healing energy and I follow up with a telephone conversation to discuss their experience and my perception of their blockages. I do miss seeing my clients, so I am now offering Zoom consultations/intakes before the session so that we can see each other. I have also incorporated a new technique with my distance Reiki treatments since I don’t always have a photo of my client.  I use a teddy bear so that I can scan and focus the healing energy where it is needed. If this appeals to you, please feel free to contact me by email at lindasim54@gmail.com or call me at 617-304-2205. The cost for distance Reiki sessions is based on a sliding scale of $30 -$50. For your convenience, I accept Venmo and Zelle for payment. Zelle payments can be sent using my telephone number

617-304-2205. I have also written an article about distance Reiki, which is available at:

I urge everyone to engage in massive amounts of self-care and follow the protective measures of washing your hands frequently, maintaining social distancing, avoid touching your eyes, nose and mouth, wearing a face mask when necessary and staying home if you are sick. And get a vaccine.  If you are eligible for a booster shot, get it. I repeat, you do not want to get this virus! I speak from personal experience and consider myself very fortunate to have survived Coronavirus twice. Stay safe and healthy, everyone! 

Astrology is a powerful tool that helps you navigate challenging times and alerts you to opportunity periods. Get a reading with me and experience the healing process. #astrology
