Weekly Astrology & Energy Forecast 17th March 2025

This week brings a significant shift in tone as we move through the Spring Equinox, marking a transition from the stillness of winter into the vibrant energy of the new season. Within the wheel of the year associated with Chinese Medicine, the Earth element is prominent at this time and provides stability and support, helping us navigate this transition with more clarity and ease. As we enter the season of the Wood element, the focus turns towards movement, action, and new beginnings. However, with both Venus and Mercury retrograde in effect, this is not a time to rush—patience and awareness are essential as we navigate the back-and-forth energy between Aries and Pisces over the coming months, symbolising both endings and new beginnings.
We also find ourselves in the middle of eclipse season which can feel as if we are between two worlds. With the transition of the seasons and the unstable energy of the eclipses, there is a call to be fully present, to tune in to what is unfolding, and to trust that clarity will come in its own time. There may be even more need to lean on the Earth element for support and to connect with your inner guidance to understand how you can best move forward. Presence and mindfully choosing where to direct your energy is absolutely key!
Astro Highlights of the Week
Monday 17th March
Sun in Pisces Conjunct North Node in Pisces @ 27 Degrees
The Sun illuminates where we are being called to grow and evolve in our lives.
This may bring a sense of motivation to take action towards our personal and spiritual development.
This point has been highly active and will continue to be a focal point over the coming months.
Encourages us to embrace change, release what no longer serves us, and step into new possibilities.
Enhances our spiritual connection, creativity, and capacity for compassion.
Wednesday 19th March
Sun in Pisces Conjunct Neptune (Cazimi) in Pisces @ 29 Degrees
A dreamy, inspiring, and deeply spiritual energy.
Offers the potential for profound insights, intuition, and connection to something greater.
A time of cleansing, dissolving, and clearing—shedding old layers.
Marks a reset point in the Sun-Neptune cycle, symbolising a fresh start before the Sun moves into Aries.
A final opportunity to release and surrender before stepping into a new chapter.
A great time to hold space for clarity to emerge—though answers may not be immediate, trust the process.
Thursday 20th March
Sun Enters Aries – The Spring Equinox – Aries Season Begins
Fiery, bold, and independent Aries season begins, bringing a surge of energy and momentum.
Aries thrives on action and movement, encouraging us to take initiative.
This year, the energy is more complex—two retrogrades in Aries create a push-pull dynamic between forward motion and inner reflection.
Grounding and awareness are key—observe where your energy is being called rather than forcing action.
If clarity isn’t here yet, be patient. It’s coming. Release any guilt about needing stillness.
Friday 21st March
Venus Retrograde Sextile Pluto in Aquarius @ 3 Degrees
Venus is nearing the halfway point of her retrograde—the deepest and most transformative phase in her mythological journey.
This aspect brings powerful opportunities for personal (Aries) and transformational (Pluto) growth.
Encourages exploration of hidden or shadowy aspects of the self, with supportive energy for healing.
Relationships may undergo profound shifts—allow space for necessary transformation.
Sunday 23rd March
Sun Conjunct Venus Retrograde in Aries @ 2 Degrees
The midpoint of the Venus retrograde cycle—a significant turning point.
Could bring moments of insight, clarity, or understanding, though the full picture may not emerge until May.
Reflect on the lessons unfolding in this area of your chart, particularly around relationships and self-worth.
Since Venus stationed retrograde on 2nd March, what themes have been surfacing for you? Pay attention—they are guiding you forward.
As we navigate this dynamic and transformative week, staying grounded and present will help bring clarity amidst the shifting energies. Trust the process, embrace the ebb and flow, and allow space for reflection! 💫❤️
