Dear ARTEMIS Members,
How are you feeling after Mars finally left Gemini (last weekend), where it’s been for the last 7 months, adding fuel to the argumentative fire?
While Mars in Gemini brought about heated debates and unclear communication, Mars in Cancer presents a paradoxical combination of conflicting forces of action and emotion. Mars represents directness, leadership, and getting things done, while Cancer embodies nurturing, protecting what’s valuable, and emotion. The combination of these traits can lead to difficulty in being direct while protecting and nurturing others, resulting in passive-aggressive behaviour and circular communication.
Mars in Cancer is in its fall, making it a much more challenging combination than Mars in Capricorn, where it is exalted and performs well.
As a professional astrologer, I still find Mars in Cancer fascinating due to its conflicting traits and challenges. Despite this, people with Mars in Cancer tend to understand better other people’s feelings, a quality that can make them excellent caregivers. However, this trait can also make it challenging to address issues directly, leading to emotional manipulation and a reluctance to hurt anyone’s feelings.
Mars in Cancer requires awareness and balance between direct action and nurturing while still being aware of tendencies towards passive-aggressiveness. Aries, Capricorn, Cancer, and Libra placements will face challenging aspects, while Scorpio and Pisces can expect positive influences in the next 6 weeks.
Anyways, enough with the quick Mars in Gemini/Cancer recap. You can read last week’s horoscope for more info about that.
This week’s astrological alignments bring an interesting mix of optimistic and fruitful communication, determined action, and relationship surprises! So let’s get into the details of it all!
I. Mercury conjoins Jupiter:
From March 27th until March 29th (exact on March 28th), Mercury and jubilant Jupiter get all fired up in a conjunction in passionate Aries!
This transit signals a feel-good energy, promoting optimistic and expansive thinking. It’s a great time to focus on business and commercial activities, with an emphasis on making long-term plans. International travel and foreign affairs are also highlighted, making exploring and connecting with different cultures a great time.
Communication is favoured under this transit, allowing for sharing of new ideas and perspectives. With good organisational abilities, it’s also a favourable time for teaching and learning new things and pursuing higher ideals with a stronger sense of justice.
However, there is a tendency to overlook smaller details and become too self-righteous, leading to over-optimism in one’s plans or promises. The overstimulation of the mind may also be a challenge, so taking breaks and practising mindfulness is important to avoid burnout.
This transit will be most favourable for Aries, Leo, Sagittarius, Gemini, and Aquarius.
Libra, Cancer, and Capricorn should be mindful of its negative manifestations.
II. Jupiter becomes invisible:
On March 28th, Jupiter becomes invisible in the sky to the naked eye, at 18 degrees of Aries, until May 12th.
Get ready for a cosmic slowdown in education, travel, and goodwill matters. Jupiter, the planet of expansion and abundance, is going into a period of invisibility, which could make it more challenging to tap into our intuition and connect with our guides.
However, this is also a time when Jupiter-ruled individuals, such as those with a Sagittarius or Pisces Ascendant, Sun, or Moon, may experience significant completions and results from their previous efforts. While it may feel like a lull in activity and manifestation, this period of introspection and reflection can ultimately lead to a greater understanding of our higher selves and the world around us. Stay patient, keep an open mind, and trust that the universe has a plan for us all.
III. Mars trines Saturn:
From March 27th until April 3rd (exact on March 30th), Mars in Cancer makes a harmonious trine to Saturn in Pisces.
This is an exciting period for those who want to make lasting changes in their work and career. With a focus on stability and long-term planning, you have the ability to achieve great success in your chosen field. Your efforts and hard work will pay off, and you will find that your actions lead to lasting and substantial results.
This is a great time to collaborate with authority figures and seniors, as your cooperative efforts are likely to be fruitful. If you are looking to make changes, now is the time to do it. You will find that changes happen smoothly and easily. Your strong moral code and determination to do the right thing will serve you well, and you will find that you have great endurance and stamina to achieve your goals. Whether you are involved in physical or mental activities, this is a good time to engage in endurance training and push yourself to your limits.
This aspect will be most supportive of Pisces, Cancer, Scorpio, Taurus, and Capricorn.
IV. Venus conjoins Uranus:
From March 29th until April 1st (exact on March 30th), hold on tight because the stars are aligning in a way that’s sure to make your heart race. Brace yourself as love-goddess Venus collides with provocative Uranus in Taurus – a cosmic event that promises to shake things up and leave you feeling a little unsteady. But don’t be afraid, because this heavenly instability is actually a gift in disguise.
As these two planets come together in the sensual and sensible sign of Taurus, they have the power to spark an unexpected love connection. You never know what kind of declarations of desire might catch you off guard (in the best way possible!) or what kind of exciting left turn your romantic life might take.
But be warned, and this unstable union could also push a rocky relationship to its breaking point. So while you might be feeling impulsive, it’s important to avoid making any rash decisions that you might regret tomorrow. However, if you’ve been feeling like it’s time for a jailbreak from a stagnant relationship, this could be the perfect moment to take the leap.
And if you’re single, it’s time to start swiping and putting yourself out there because the stars are aligning to unlock a cosmic connection for you. For those already in a relationship, it’s the perfect time to get experimental and try something new – both in and out of the bedroom. So don’t hold back; embrace the unexpected and see where the stars take you!
This aspect will be most supportive of Taurus, Virgo, Capricorn, Cancer, and Pisces.
Leo, Aquarius, and Scorpio should avoid impulsive decisions.
