Scorpio, the month of February comes to a close this week, and gives birth to March — which means the astro new year is rapidly approaching. Because remember, in astrology the new year doesn’t begin until the start of spring in the Northern Hemisphere, and this is marked by the start of Aries Season. This week is all about reflection and recalibration as we approach a new cosmic cycle. What steps can you take to lighten the load that you place on yourself subconsciously, Scorpio? With Mars in its final four weeks in Gemini, you’re being asked to take on less, not more. Be like air — light, spontaneous, unpredictable, and free. This may feel easier said than done, since we’re a Fixed Water sign, however as the week begins the Moon and Mars are both in Gemini at the same time, helping us condition our minds to believe that life can be easier, simpler, and less stressful if we pay attention to our breath and make decisions based on our spirit.

Mid-week, the Moon shifts into Cancer, and when combined with the Sun in Pisces we’re likely to receive several telepathic downloads helping us be aligned with the next step in our life. Month begins on a serendipitous note, as many aspects of your life that were causing you stress start to come together and you’re able to calmly find solutions to what once worried you. You’re being asked to continue to trust yourself and universal flow, because it’ll take you further than fear or doubt ever will. Mercury, the Planet of Communication, shifts into Pisces on the 2nd, and this harmonizes quite well with your Scorpio energy. Pay attention to your dreams as March begins, and give yourself plenty of time to rest, relax, and meditate. The more you allow yourself to mellow out (even if, or especially if you have a lot on your to-do list), the more aligned you’ll feel.

Romantically, Venus’ presence in Aries is activating your warrior side — but it’s important for you to take on the role of a peaceful warrior rather than an antagonizing one. Get curious about times when you’re feeling defensive or overly self-protective whenever someone tries to show you love, or get closer to you. While it’s healthy to have a natural guard up, you also don’t want it to turn into an impenetrable armor which block out all softness and intimacy. Now that we’re less than 10 days away from Saturn, the Planet of Challenge, entering Pisces for 2.5 years, your lesson is to get curious about moments when you push away love as a way to avoid the potential of getting hurt, embarrassed, or disappointed. Last year, when Jupiter was transiting Pisces, I kept sharing with y’all the importance of trusting in the best case scenario. Now that Saturn’s about to enter Pisces, you’re being asked to intentionally create the best case scenario, through the power of visualizing what it feels like to surrender to love, and to be fully and safely carried by it. The Universe wants this for you, Scorpio.
