Astro Poetica March 2020 Apocalypse Survival Tarotscopes by Christine Aprile
IT’S HECTIC OUT THERE.
This month Mercury will slide back into Aquarius on the 5th, giving us some space to rethink and reorient after the deep soul dredge of Mercury retro in Pisces. While that energy isn’t totally over since the messenger planet will return to Piscean territory, motion will be direct and our emotions a bit less befuddled.
The Full Moon in Virgo on March 9th might help amplify our fears thanks to an opposition from Neptune, but the solution will flow from spiritual and community support thanks to a trine with Jupiter in Capricorn.
Push through and finish up old projects around this time to make way for the New Moon in Aries on March 24th. With the Sun’s movement into Aries on the 20th, the sparks will begin to fly, igniting new passions and excitement for springtime adventures.
Aries
5 of Cups
There are moments when grief is necessary. Allow yourself to feel those difficult emotions and explore the depths of experience, but make sure that you don’t get lost in the process. Those who dwell too long in the land of sorrow can become lost in its maze.
Taurus
3 of Cups
The time has come to rejoice, dear Taurus. You have been gifted with abundance, so make a list of all the things you have gratitude for. Let this list be long, silly, truthful and enlightening. It is our most difficult times that lead us to our most joyful discoveries.
Gemini
Page of Swords
Most Gemini natives are gifted with the ability to move a crowd with their eloquence, but sometimes this gift of gab can be a little... much. Keep your words firmly tied to reality this month, and by all means think before you speak. Words can be powerful weapons: don’t use them blindly.
Cancer
The Hermit
Cut out the distractions this month, Cancer and focus on what you are really trying to achieve in the long term. It’s easy to get distracted by unnecessary habits and dramas, so consider how you can streamline both your time and your mind. Sometimes the answer to productivity is slowing down.
Leo
The Moon
Ride those waves of uncertainty dear Leo, and don’t let fear guide you as you move into uncharted territory. Creative solutions and adventure abound when we are faced with the unknown, so let go of the need to control every outcome. Above all, let your intuition bring you solace in the month ahead.
Virgo
Ace of Cups
Welcome to the beginning of a new emotional journey, dear Virgo! This can be exquisitely healing time, so trust that the warmth you are feeling in your heart is the very definition of true love. It may come from different sources than expected, so be open and let the journey unfold.
Libra
5 of Swords
It’s time to face your fears of conflict, Libra, and fearlessly state your truth. While it may be intimidating to make such a stand, you’ll grow from allowing decisiveness into your flow. Trust that whatever transpires will ultimately free you to move forward.
Scorpio
Queen of Cups
Your intuition is on fire this month, Scorpio! You may be experiencing heightened sensitivity to your environment, precognitive dreams, or moments of just knowing. Let those instincts guide you, and take extra time to connect with nature to clear your mind, body and spirit.
Sagittarius
Wheel of Fortune
There’s nothing Sagittarius loves more than a puzzle, and this month is certain to have many conundrums and mysteries to solve. No problem! You’ve got the ability to think on your feet, so stay nimble and commence the juggling act. Things will fall into place. They always do...
Capricorn
King of Wands
Take the lead this month and prepare yourself for the role of guide and teacher. Get comfortable directing others and resist the urge to micromanage every detail. You’ll need all your energy to keep everyone motivated and on task.
Aquarius
Knight of Pentacles
To truly change the world is a long and arduous process. An amazing idea must be implemented carefully and thoughtfully, and each step needs to be weighed and considered. This is a moment where you are being urged to stick with your plans, despite the long road ahead. The effort will be worth it.
Pisces
9 of Wands
Don’t beat yourself up, dear Pisces! Everyone makes mistakes and we are all the more wise for what goes wrong in life. Take some time to digest your lessons this month, but don’t be afraid to move on. There’s no need to repeat yesterday’s mistakes.
