There is a strange energy at the moment as we adjust into how to work with 2025. On one level it feels fast and surging, with the potential for a lot, but no directions into how to navigate this strange combo of abundance and mist. On another level there is this feeling that it is not the right time to force things, but to rather align yourself into a place that you can feel centered and ready to receive the green light, the messages and the stepping stones that are part of “getting there.”
Mars has just moved direct again after being in retrograde since December. It will still be in the reactive sign of Cancer until April, so be prepared to take a little longer in “getting there,” because crabs tend to walk sideways….
Mars passes the retrograde baton to Venus now as she prepares for her retrograde period from 1 March until 12 April. Mercury joins her in going retrograde around the 15th March – 7 April.
Retrograde energy is introspective and pushes us to re-evaluate things. So for Mars it was about direction, Venus is about values – often linked to love and money matters and Mercury it is about information, communication, and decisions.

The alignment you will see at the setting Sun is showing us the importance of connection and sequence. In this case, once the Sun sets, we may glimpse the New Moon on the 1st March followed by Saturn, then Mercury, Neptune, Venus, Uranus, Jupiter, and lastly Mars.
May this New Moon in Pisces be a gentle, connected quiet time to plant these important dream seeds into nurtured ground and stay connected intuitively and subconsciously to the process and progress of these dreams as they slowly start to emerge with time and care.
