[Fate & Free Will ] Astrology for the Week of March 17-23

This week is the calm between the two eclipse storms. The Sun moves into Aries, bringing yet another lens through which to see all of the fluctuating Aries dynamics that have been brought up with the Venus and Mercury retrogrades.

Monday 03/17

• ☽ ▻ Scorpio | 3:30 am eastern
• ☽ at 03° 17‘ Scorpio  □ ♇ at 03° 17‘ Aquarius | 10:11 am eastern

Monday has a weight to it that’s hard to ignore. Even if nothing is being said outright there’s a lot bubbling up beneath the surface. 

Power struggles, silent frustration, or hidden agendas can create tension, making it harder to tell whether to confront an issue head-on or bide your time. 

• Best for: Picking up on unspoken dynamics, reassessing commitments, noticing what’s not being said.
• Potential Challenges: Struggles for control, second-guessing motives, conversations feeling more charged than expected.

Tuesday 03/18

• 🌖 Waning Gibbous Moon | 6:01 am eastern
• ☽ at 19° 55‘ Scorpio △ ♂︎ at 19° 55‘ Cancer | 7:56 pm eastern

Tuesday there’s a sense of momentum. There’s a drive to push forward, even if it’s not entirely smooth.

• Best for: Determination, steady progress, acting with purpose.
• Potential Challenges: Acting too quickly, getting caught up in emotions, pushing too hard without considering the full picture.

Wednesday has a foggy quality, where clarity is harder to come by and what seems certain may shift upon closer inspection. Perceptions are more fluid, making it easy to read too much into situations or overlook something important. 

It will be difficult to separate intuition from assumption and fact from fiction.

• Best for: Reflecting on deeper questions, picking up on unspoken dynamics, creative or abstract thinking.
• Potential Challenges: Misreading situations, confusion in conversations, deception, struggling to get straight answers.

Thursday 03/20

• ☽ at 04° 25‘ Sagittarius  △ ♀︎at 04° 25‘ Aries | 1:09 am eastern
• ☉ ▻ Aries | 5:01 am eastern
• ☽ at 07° 48‘ Sagittarius △ ☿ at 07° 48‘ Aries | 7:55 am eastern
• ☽ at 14° 24‘ Sagittarius ☍ ♃ at 14° 24‘ Gemini | 9:01 pm eastern 

Thursday the shift from uncertainty to urgency is palpable as the fog of the past few days lifts and things start moving faster with the Sun moving into Aries at 5:01 am eastern. 

Where there was hesitation, there’s now a push to act, though the sudden clarity may come with a rush of impatience. Conversations pick up speed, and decisions that once felt out of reach now seem obvious—whether or not they’ve been fully thought through.

• Best for: Moving forward with confidence, direct communication, feeling feisty.
• Potential Challenges: Acting too quickly, overlooking important details, jumping into situations without considering long-term consequences.

Friday 03/21

• ☽ at 23° 14‘ Sagittarius □ ♄ at 23° 14‘ Pisces | 2:23 pm eastern
• ♀︎ at 03° 22‘ Aries ✳ ♇ at 03° 22‘ Aquarius | 5:32 pm eastern 

Friday there’s a pull toward deep, compelling connections and revisiting unfinished dynamics, but hesitation or outside pressure may make things feel more complicated. 

The desire for influence or resolution is strong, yet obstacles or delays may create a sense of frustration, making it harder to know if something is worth pushing for or letting go.

• Best for: Revisiting past connections, uncovering hidden motivations, recognizing what holds real value.
• Potential Challenges: Feeling blocked from progress, second-guessing intentions, external circumstances slowing things down.

Saturday 03/22

• ☽ at 29° 41‘ Sagittarius □ ♆ at 29° 41‘ Pisces | 2:52 am eastern
• ☽ V/C | 2:52 - 3:28 am eastern
• ☽ ▻ Capricorn | 3:28 am eastern
• 🌗 Last Quarter Moon | 7:29 am eastern

• ☽ at 06° 07‘ Capricorn □ ☿ at 06° 07‘ Aries | 3:13 pm eastern
• ☉ ☌ ♀︎ at 02° 39‘ Aries | 9:07 pm eastern

Saturday there’s an undeniable spotlight on relationships, values, and unfinished business, bringing a desire for clarity on what has been lingering in the background. 

While some realizations may feel empowering, conversations or decisions could create tension, especially if old dynamics resurface. 

It will be easy to focus on what feels most important, but not everything will be as straightforward as it seems.

• Best for: Reassessing past connections, gaining clarity on personal priorities, recognizing what still holds value.
• Potential Challenges: Revisiting old arguments, conversations that don’t go as planned, frustration over slow-moving progress.

Sunday 03/23

• ☉ at 03° 24‘ Aries ✳ ♇ at 03° 24‘ Aquarius | 3:31 pm eastern
• ☽ at 21° 11‘ Capricorn ☍ ♂︎ at 21° 11‘ Cancer | 7:22 pm eastern
• ☽ at 23° 32‘ Capricorn  ✳ ♄ at 23° 32‘ Pisces | 11:41 pm eastern

Sunday taking control, asserting influence, or making a decisive move will be tempting but it’ll come with some underlying tension. 

Power dynamics, whether personal or external, are more likely and conversations may carry a sharper edge. 

There are opportunities to shift a situation in a meaningful way, but not everything will come without resistance.

• Best for: Gaining clarity on influence and control, recognizing deeper motivations, making calculated adjustments.
• Potential Challenges: Tension, feeling the weight of external pressure, struggles over authority or decision-making.

Until next time, my wish for you is the courage to discover your most audacious dreams. -Robin💋
