Astro-logical Forecast for Thursday 3/11/2015: High-Flying Huzzah; Mercury in Pisces; Saturn Retrograde Alert

Real…followed by surreal/ideal…might be your morning flow at the high-flying Moon in Sagittarius is tempered by a meet-up with Saturn in the wee hours of the morning. Wet blanket, perhaps…followed by all wet, as Moon is challenges by nebulous Neptune about six hours later at 10:13AM ET.

The rest of your day may be driven by fallout from the surge of breakthrough potential from yesterday’s epic meeting of Mars with Uranus in warrior/pioneer Aries and potent Pluto in Capricorn. Did you do anything courageous? Easy alignments to the Moon from Jupiter and Uranus help the optimistic flow around 9PM ET and just before midnight.

A day with Moon in Sagittarius is a prime opportunity to expand your horizons. Get out in nature; see a foreign film; take in a show or engage in a feisty debate in which you actually consider the opinions of someone else — and treat them with respect. Thus they may treat you in kind.

Special thanks to avid reader Karen, who forwarded me this spectacular photo of a volcano erupting in Guatemala. This was NASA’s Picture of the Day yesterday. How perfectly in sync with planetary patterns!

Today’s notable shift is mental Mercury leaving rocket scientist Aquarius for dreamy Pisces at 11:52PM ET, where it will float until the end of the month. Less cerebral detachment in communication and mindset; more intuition, feeling and faith. Sounds great for artists and healers. Could be reflected in some convoluted logic, though.

Meanwhile, for anyone who has a planet or angle at 4 degrees of Gemini, Pisces, Virgo and especially Sagittarius, you may have been feeling pressured to make an ambitious reach or streamline in the weeks leading up to the beginning of February. Saturn hit 4 Sagittarius on February 9th and has been sitting there since then. Well, guess what? Your squeeze continues through mid-April, as this weekend Saturn will turn retrograde on that degree, giving you an opportunity to rethink and retool your strategy (Saturn will continue appearing to move backwards into the end of Scorpio before turning direct on August 2nd). The results of your hard work should be apparent around the first week of November, which is when Saturn will hit 4 Sagittarius again.  Jon Stewart, if you’re reading this, it applies to you.
