Sun at 00°00’ Aries, Tropical
March 19th, 2024, 11:07 PM EST affecting us for the entire year!
Spring Equinox is here balancing the light and the darkness! March 19th is marked by a potent cosmic opening. The Sun ingresses into the cardinal sign of Aries at 11:07 PM EST on March 19th and remains on the first degree of Aries until March 20th, beginning a new journey around the Zodiac wheel. The feeling of expansion is aroused with the rays of the Spring sunlight!
The Spring Equinox stands for the new astrological year, and its chart defines the energies for the upcoming year, and in particular the first quadrant until the Summer Solstice.
The Cosmic Portal of the BIG Entrance to one of the four Cardinal points of the astrological Wheel of the Year, (which are the dates corresponding to Spring Equinox, Summer Solstice, Autumn Equinox, and Winter Solstice) is the gateway to manifesting through the energy of leadership. Use the cosmic forces to activate, to motivate, and to move-forward! This four-angle portal brings different energies with each different quadrant. With Aries, a cardinal, fire sign ruled by Mars, we are experiencing a boost of energy helping us to take reality in stride. With its pioneering, courageous, intense survival spirit, we are launched to fearlessly conquer the world.
Major Planetary Energies
When Sun enters Aries it conjuncts the Aries Point (first degree of the Zodiac) and the cycle of the astrological Wheel of the Year begins, already containing the energies of the upcoming events. The chart of the Spring Equinox focuses on accessing the inner strength with unity of purpose (Sun trine Moon) so as any unconscious feelings work for our intentions rather than against them (Moon opposition Pluto). With Neptune conjunct the Sun, there is a strong emphasis on compassion and kindness in all our relations, which will also assist in handling the intensity of emotional experiences induced by the Pluto / Moon opposition.
There is a strong emphasis on the evolution of our collective destiny with a tight conjunction of the North Node in Aries with Mercury and Chiron, the Wounded Healer indicating the need to acknowledge painful experiences, to process the trauma, and to be guided by empathy and compassion as we transmute our past karmas, learning the lessons, and overcoming difficulties.
With the Sun in Mighty Aries we ought to use the solar fiery energy to burn the negativity and emerge into Spring. It’s important to remember the painful past so as to learn from it, and to make the PEACE vows to ALWAYS PROTECT THOSE WHO MAY BENEFIT FROM OUR STRENGTH AND LOVE.
Stay in your power!
