The Astrologer Daily: March 23rd, 2012
By Kelli Fox, The Astrologer
Backward-traveling Mercury returns to the sign Pisces today. And for the next three-plus weeks while the messenger planet is in this watery sign, communication takes on a more passive vibe.
The last three weeks while Mercury was in Aries featured thoughts moving at a rapid pace. Now they slow down again with intuition and feelings, rather than self-assertion, guiding them. Therefore, it’s best to not force dialogue or get frustrated if the right words take longer to access. Not only is this not productive, but it can lead to excess irritability, notably today with the Moon in fiery Aries.
The Sun is at 3 degrees Aries, the Moon is in Aries, Mercury is in Pisces, Venus is in Taurus and Mars is in Virgo. With this combination of planetary energies try to: Buy a piece of furniture that would liven up the living room. Try not to: Buy out the entire candy section at your local supermarket.
There are no exact aspects today.
– Mercury in Aries is retrograde until April 4th
– Mars in Virgo is retrograde until April 13th
– Saturn in Libra is retrograde until June 25th
Happy birthday to Keri Russell, Chaka Khan and Catherine Keener.
