What was solid now mutates into air – Pluto. And what was air now condenses into water – Saturn. If February 2023 felt significant, well, it is because it preceded March 2023. The month brings us the remarkable ingress of Saturn in Pisces (a 2023 to 2026 transit) and the much expected ingress of Pluto in Aquarius (a 2023/2024 to 2043/2044 transit). We enter yet another level of epic.
These are top features of the Year of the White Water Rabbit, which are to change the color palette in our collective, and each of their ingresses takes place in connection to a lunation peak – Saturn comes with the Full Moon (first third of the month); whilst Pluto is brought to us by the New Moon (last third of the month). In between them (second third of the month) are the challenges.
The Venus-Jupiter conjunction opened the month, like diamonds in the sky. On the one hand, the two benefics always bring some blessings. On the other hand, although speaking of peace proposals, since it occurs in Aries, with a tricky Mars, the context is rather belligerent and complex.
March not only has outstanding astrological features, it has many astro details intertwined to them. For the sake of clarity and comprehension, I will address the month in its three above-mentioned concentrations. Make no mistake, they are all connected, but discerning them is key to better understand also the overall articulation.
Full is the Moon – and what was Air now condenses into Water
It is double on 7 – on the same day, March 7:
– The Full Moon peaks at 12h40 UTC, 16º40 Virgo – this time, with both Moon and Sun in harmony with Uranus (instead of tension, as in early February). An excellent moment to bring detailed clarity and reveal what is necessary to clarify lies, illusions and falsities, to discern. Moreover, a trine from Uranus always opens horizons.
– Saturn sets sail into the Piscean realm at 13h35 UTC – a green door in the wall appears and Nancy Sinatra sings. A sense of derealization tends to hit those who have been believing or betting on lies and misconceptions of reality. At the same time, that which is in its meaning a reality, but was not yet actualized, may begin to find means to present itself more concretely. Green screens are reality checked; whilst dreams can come true. Saturn leaves the dimension of ideas and plans (Air) and moves into a dimension of feeling and experience (Water), to further conceive multipolarity and structure the new polycentric system.
Additionally, on the next day, March 8, is the exact square between the Black Moon and the Lunar Nodes, which encompasses the period from March 2 to 14. This is an Earth-shaking ‘classic’ when configured with other astrological players too, as was the case in the tectonic moves triggered in February’s Full Moon in tension with Uranus – BM-LNs square was already applying. Howbeit, now the core issue it brings is Sovereignty (Black Moon in Leo) squaring the axis of power, of Slave (North Node in Taurus) and Controller (South Node in Scorpio). As the North points to Taurus, the sign which can signify slavery, a power shift is being faced. To rebalance power, sovereignty is key. Even if it takes struggle, effort (square). We can observe how the conversation between colonial powers and African countries is changing more and more, not just in tone but in positions. The team formed by Black Moon and the Lunar Nodes is a pretty karmic and atavic one, its aspects by transit can stir up deep collective memories. It also allows for encountering and/or clearing karmic burdens.
As the world’s compass is recalibrated, it is increasingly being acknowledged that the “Middle East” (as named by Westerns) is, in fact, West Asia.
When Europe finally liberates itself from both its colonial mindset and its North American colony status, it will come to rediscover itself to be, in fact, a peninsula of the great Eurasian continent and, at some point, come to realize the wonders of Eurasian Integration. Hopefully, sooner than later. It will take a profound process, and the sense of derealization that Saturn in Pisces brings could be considered an invitation to begin it.
The Moon is Full and the tides are high, as Saturn enters Pisces to join the multipolar fleet and further structure the new polycentric system.
Mid-March Tricks and Threats
Mars in Gemini is, again, in troublemaker mode – with border trouble and tricks. After the particularly long period in Gemini, which included his retrogradation, he is about the leave the sign, ingressing in Cancer on March 25. But, not so fast. Before that, he reactivates the tensions he had triggered, back in October and November 2022, in the astrological charts of US, NATO, Ukraina, and Russia – detailed in my Mars in Gemini piece. As I had then pointed out, he also squares false-flag, intoxication and deceit master Neptune, which will be conjoined by the Sun on March 15-16 (25º Pisces). Whilst The Jupiter Chiron conjunction peaks on March 12 (14º Aries). All of these tricky and threatening aspects concentrating in mid-March – the reason of my warning, in the Year 2023’s article, of risks concerning health issues and unconventional means of warfare. And so came the Briefing by Russian Lieutenant General Igor Kirillov, on February 28, alerting about the West’s preparations for large-scale provocations involving toxic chemicals in Ukraine.
More over, for the Full Moon, the Sun is right on a sensitive degree, 16º Pisces, which triggers issues like biolabs and biological warfare. Degrees 16 to 18 Pisces happen to be related to the pernicious health dystopia, as those degrees were marked by the Black Moon and Neptune in moments such as Event 201. That is to say, it is a moment to beware of such issues, as well as a good month (especially ahead of the New Moon) to put light onto those sort of matters, as this Virgo Full Moon, at the opposite end (16º Virgo) indicates.
The importance of addressing and clarifying is, precisely, to both minimize and avoid trouble. Alertness pays off.
There is always a line of flight out of a troublesome Neptunian maze. On mid March, we do get a harmonious contact between Venus and Mars. Love and charm can, also, be saviors.
Mind you: this second quarter can be considered to start as early as March 9, when a trilateral meeting of the delegations from Turkey, Sweden, and Finland on NATO membership will be held in Brussels.
New is the Moon – and what was Capricorn solid now mutates into Aquarius Air
With the Fiery Aries spark of Equinox and New Moon, we are elevated into Air, as Pluto changes signs. So significant a moment that a few other points join the ceremony. Venus, dispositor (host) of the North Node in Cornucopia Taurus (related to economics and finance) conjuncts this very point, enhancing its potential. She is accompanied by her loyal friend, lady Juno, asteroid and goddess of partnership, legitimacy and respectability. Being loyal and concrete is the way to go. The exacts of this gathering occur on the same day as the New Moon (21), thus marking the new lunar month, as well as the events taking place around this date.
As with every year, when the Sun reaches de vernal point, a cardinal point, degree Zero Aries, the very first of the whole zodiac, we have the Equinox (March 20). Rivetingly, this year it is accompanied by the New Moon. Even though occurring already on March 21, at 17h22 UTC, the new lunation takes place still on the Zero Aries degree – 0º49’ to be precise.
Sergey Lavrov’s choice of words, at a recent meeting with the heads of the regional bodies of the Russian Foreign Ministry, is quite interesting: “The world has entered an era of cardinal, I would say irreversible changes.”
CARDINAL. The cardinal point of Zero Aries – where Mr Lavrov’s Sun is, by the way – happens to be right where Saturn and Neptune will conjunct in 2026, a major aspect in the astrological composition of the change of the world-system. And it is an aspect closely related to the history of both Russia and China.
Equinox – autumn in the south, spring in the north. Spring is when President Xi Jinping is to come to Moscow. Just in time to salute Pluto in Aquarius together with President Vladimir Putin. Amongst its many meanings, Pluto in Aquarius in a major indicator of China’s rise in power, due to how it relates to the countries astrological chart. With power, more dangers. With Aquarius, the importance of friendship.
Escalation from the West keeps on giving, despite their empty narrative and pressure on other countries, such as Brazil, to step in for “peace” – theirs is newspeak “peace” though, a word Western leaders use whilst pushing for war.
Just from US officials alone, the number of blunt warmongering statements are increasing in a speed hard to keep track of – gotta give them that: their lying and warmongering ‘weapons system’ is so ‘advanced’, no one beats them on those! And do they love to brag. Here are fragments from the past days:
Samantha Powers, head of US “AID”, with no hesitancy, admits the US is at war with Russia using the hands of Ukrainians, that they are “building a coalition of countries… making sure that this is not just the United States and Russia, but Ukrainians on the frontline, Ukrainians doing the fighting, and a coalition of 50 countries rallying behind them.”
William Burns, head of CIA, secret service, comes on TV to make sure everybody knows the US is providing intelligence to Ukraine against Russia. Ok, nothing to see here, but why are they so eager to publicly state it? Well, “peace” wouldn’t be their kind of (newspeak) peace if it wasn’t accompanied by war-provoking words and actions.
Another Burns fires: “The US is staying in this region – we are the leader in this region in many ways” (US ambassador to China, Nicholas Burns).
There are different recent statements of US officials expressing “concerns” about Iran’s nuclear developments, about China being provided by Russia with Uranium, and – of course – the spin they luv to play: “Blinken recalls warning Russia on use of tactical nuclear weapons”, when the very Russian doctrine on the use of nuclear weapons is a defensive one – not as in NATO newspeak, but as in the real sense of the word defensive. The US doctrine, however, isn’t exactly so. And, since the US empire is known for its typically perverse projection, accusing others of their own sins, that narrative can be quite concerning. The American population better seriously realize it and join the June 2024 movement Scott Ritter has been calling for.
The quotes could go on, of course. Lies, coercion, sabotage, and terror attacks are the empire’s perverse modus operandi. Under the death drive’s spell, they cross borders and red lines, craving to instigate aggressive reaction.
The Russian, the Chinese – as well as others like the Belarusian – leaderships know better. Whilst aware of the dictum, if you want peace prepare for war, they know their timing and don’t lose sight of the life drive’s direction: further conceiving and structuring the new world in the making and its polycentric system.
While Blinken tries to buy Central Asia cheap, in another, higher frequency dimension, Nicolai Patrushev, Russia’s highest-ranking security official, visits Venezuela and Cuba. Adding to that, here are some sharp considerations on the consequences of Russia’s withdrawal from START-3 Treaty.
And in Beijing. President Xi welcomes Belarusian President Lukashenko in all glory, affirming their “all-weather comprehensive strategic partnership.”
On February 14, on the occasion of Iranian President Raisi’s visit, the Chinese President affirmed: “No matter how the international and regional situation changes, China will unswervingly maintain its friendship and cooperation with Iran and advance China-Iran comprehensive strategic partnership.”
On February 20, top Chinese diplomat Wang Yi, in his visit to Moscow, talks to Patrushev, Lavrov and Putin. He describes Beijing’s ties to Moscow as “rock-solid” and says “China-Russia ties will withstand any test in a changing international situation.” More than allies, a mature, no-limits partnership. And, with these partnerships freshly reaffirmed, the polycentric fleet sails forth.
At this point, it is interesting to note the interpretation given by Solar Fire astrology software for Pluto in Aquarius: “This is the generation of world cooperation. People in this generation have the ability to make scientific breakthroughs for the benefit of humanity.”
Notwithstanding, Pluto in Aquarius presents also some creepy challenges, such as transhumanism, controlling and dehumanizing modalities such as 15-minute cities, enhancement of digital means of control, manipulation and abuse through technological means. It is abusive social control vs. power of the people and of the peoples.
Energy is power. Big time. And powerful technological advancements are coming. Digital Rubles and Digital Yuan are amongst the interesting traits, which might shake some banks’ grounds.
On March 23, Pluto enters Aquarius and it does signify Power (Pluto) to the People and Peoples (Aquarius), and the power of cooperation – peoples of the world, organize!
The ingress, obviously, takes place at 0º Aquarius. That is the degree of the Great Mutation (December 2020), which is another major aspect of the decade, pointing to the change of the world-system, as I have been explaining for some time. A significant moment, undoubtedly. The effects reverberate, not all at once.
Dystopia is currently the name of the game in Western societies. Let the fake skies fall. The real one can’t be taken down. We will stand tall together and bring about our Renaissance – say the polycentric winds, blowing strongly. In a Dystopian Renaissance, the old world is dying, but this time, a new world is being born.
