Astrology Musings for Aries Season
Astrology is all about cycles. Now here we are, at the start again. However, this time we are wiser from our experiences…hopefully! When the Sun enters Aries on March 20th, we pass the threshold and enter into the new astrological year. The feeling is like starting a new journal, curiosity sparking with how we want to fill the new space. Mars’ activating presence will be moving into Aries on April 9th. Expect directness - it may feel quite refreshing as it conserves energy from reading in between the lines.
The phrase for Aries is ‘I am’, so we invite you to shine your light inwards this month and reclaim your true essence. In this time of reset, your inner knowing will show you the way. Find your ascendent (rising sign) below for some words more personal to you. PS. April 17th is a very auspicious day to plant your seeds!
ARIES: This month will most likely feel very poignant. The Sun, Venus, Mars, Saturn, Neptune, and Chiron are all in Aries for a part of this season. Ride the wave, as there’s potential for a magnificent transformation. Spend time on April 1st in gratitude for all you have learnt from others this year, and then set your intentions on April 17th for this next journey around the wheel.
TAURUS: This is a season for dreaming and enchantment. Spend time tending to your visions. There is a superpowered charge in the air. Write down your wishes, and you might be surprised what comes true!
GEMINI: Spend time this month supporting and connecting to your friends. The Apothecary team visited Devil’s Head coffee roasterie recently, and there was such a deep feeling of community. If you are seeking connection, we highly recommend visiting them, or come and visit us for your refills.
CANCER: How we do anything is how we do everything. The way you show up in the world is illuminated this month. Among all of our responsibilities, maybe the most important is staying true to ourselves.
LEO: The theme this season for you is ‘seeking’. Pursue what peaks your interest, and enjoy the deepening of knowing. Seeking also relates to travel, and with the astrology of the moment, a trip may ignite a transformation of self.
VIRGO: Take your desires seriously, they are your compass for a fulfilling life. What makes you feel truly rich? Embrace the change you’ve felt brewing.
LIBRA: This month is about peace and balance for you. In the book Braiding Sweetgrass, Robin Wall Kimmerer speaks about reciprocity, what a great theme to ponder on. We all have unique gifts to share.
SCORPIO: It’s time for spring cleaning! Refine your space and enjoy the fresh energy. Essential oils are a great companion for this. We also have two Natural Home Cleaning classes for you to explore. Cleaning is much more fun when the smells are natural.
SAGITTARIUS: Follow your heart to all the creative spaces. This would be a fabulous month to go to the theatre, try figure drawing, attend a pottery class, or make a floral wreath! Art is a balm for the soul.
CAPRICORN: The Sun is shining in the part of your chart associated with healing and home. In this fast moving world, embrace your own pace. May this month bring a ‘pottering’ energy, no rushing, just tending to what you care for and being in the present moment.
AQUARIUS: Embrace meaningful communication this month. This could be a fruitful time to express yourself through poetry, writing letters to loved ones, or documenting your day to day life. We’ve been gifted bodies to speak and write, so let’s make the most of them.
PISCES: Ponder on quality vs. quantity this season. Is there an area in your life where scaling back would invite a deeper connection to your true values? Simplicity can be blissful. Speaking of which… have you heard of Basosi shampoo bars? A staff favourite, this little shampoo bar is zero waste and lasts as long as 3 bottles of liquid shampoo! Super simple.
