In a latest session, my therapist checked out me and stated, “You're extraordinarily delicate, you understand that.” My migraines have lately returned with a vengeance and I’ve as soon as once more been confronted with the truth that I’m a mere mortal. I hate the reminder. I don't put on sensitivity as a badge of honor, despite the fact that I do know it's a present (which regularly looks like a curse). I come from very hardy blue collar inventory. My dad is mainly Paul Bunyan and my mother is all the time on the go. I’m their porous baby and have all the time felt a way of private diminishment due to it. As an grownup, in fact, I can see how this sensitivity has been a gateway to all of the blessings in my life. However unconsciously, I nonetheless attempt to mannequin myself with two individuals with a a lot sturdier construct than me. I nonetheless choose myself in opposition to some imaginary customary of sturdiness. I'm nonetheless making an attempt to maintain up.
If I'm sincere, I've by no means felt so stretched. Since turning into a father or mother, my capability for what was a daily exercise has declined dramatically. For the reason that seventh of October I’ve been unsteady. If one thing additional pops up throughout the day (and it all the time does), it has the power to tip me over and dump me. I do know I'm in a pre-burnout stage. I'm not there but, however I can really feel how precarious the well-being of my system is. I do know that if I don't prioritize relaxation, friendship, and extra relaxation, there might be hell to pay. I additionally know that given the state of the world, I’m not alone. I don't wish to repeat Elmo's newest social media blunder, however I'm questioning, how are you all doing?
Pisces season displays a time when our defenses weaken, once we turn into extra weak, overwhelmed, and hopefully a bit of extra compassionate. Pisces is the final signal of the zodiac. It’s the finish level earlier than the wheel begins once more. It's a cocktail of every little thing that got here earlier than, and a type of cosmic melting pot. This Pisces season, I really feel good (not so cosmic).
On March 17, probably the most vital transits of this season will happen: the Solar and Neptune will meet within the ultimate levels of this water signal to kind what is named a cazimi. Neptune is a planet of delusions, fantasies, beliefs, divinity, drunkenness, escapism, sleep and bewilderment. Pisces is thought for its limitlessness, mysticism, and penchant for shape-shifting, evaporating, converging, feeling, crying, and waxing poetic. He desires to turn into one with one thing larger than himself and sometimes tries to do that by merging with every little thing round him: damage, fear, marvel and all.
You might say that Neptune and Pisces are an ideal match. Or an exaggeration.
Moments in time which have a robust Piscean signature, like this week, usually align with occasions detailing wonderful altruism and loving kindness, however they will simply as usually align with confusion, exhaustion, deception and sacrifice. It is a slippery setup that teaches us that little or no could be taken and we should prioritize our limits.
A saving grace: Venus in Pisces
On March 11 (six days earlier than Neptune's cazimi), Venus will be a part of the Solar, Saturn and Neptune in Pisces. As a result of Venus guidelines magnificence, artwork, cultural therapeutic, love, relationships, and pleasure, and since Pisces is the signal of her exaltation, all of the issues she represents are destined to take a better position now Venus in Pisces alerts a time when love is flowing on faucet. This may appear to be an extremely callous prediction to provide to a world that’s ravaged by struggle, famine, genocide, and violence, however I additionally hope that it could possibly elevate our spirits and direct our consideration to the sweetness within the midst of bitter Venus in Pisces heralds a time when the necessity for magnificence, love and connection, and the therapeutic energy of artwork, reign supreme.
It jogs my memory of a Toni Morrison quote that I've seen printed quite a few occasions since October 7: “That is exactly the time when artists go to work. There is no such thing as a time for despair, no room for self-pity, no want for silence, no room for worry. We converse, we write, we make language. That's how civilizations heal.” Born whereas the Moon was in Pisces, Morrison by no means lacked understanding of the ache inflicted by the violent and unjust techniques we stay in, however neither was she trapped or immobilized by the devastation of This one. Subsequently, he was all the time capable of be on the service of what might treatment it.
Though this signal could make us weak, Pisces' power is their kindness, adaptability and relentless creativity. Just like a wave repeatedly crashing on the shore, there’s a distinctive type of fortitude on this signal that ultimately wears away any hardness of coronary heart it encounters. My hope is that this week's astrology alerts a time when a number of the calcified cruelty of this world is worn away (whereas remaining intact), that we come to grasp the ability of our personal sensitivity, and that we work with this second to sacrifice ourselves. the idea that violence might by no means result in something however extra of the identical. That we are able to supply all of the bargains, mirrors and illusions that this world affords us for our complicity and, in return, that it amplifies each act of goodwill, each vote of solidarity and each motion in direction of a extra supportive and simply world .
