A burst of light and life brings forth spring upon the northern hemisphere of the planet!  The Sun has moved into Aries, heralding the transition between winter and summer.  It is the time of the ‘in-between’ when the warm and cold air mix, twirl and spin in a back and forth dance the ultimately ends in the time of maximum light or summer.  Aries is innocence and excitement, action before thought, and inspiration to accomplish the mission or tasks at hand.  The plant the separates itself as an individual, growing fast and charging upward and outward is a symbol of this time of Aries.

This is a prominent time as Mars and Uranus are in close conjunction  bringing in unpredictable and unknowable energies into action, for a short time, amplifying a theme of taking matters of action first above those of thought.  It works through the gut or the intuition to accomplish what is required to succeed in the Aries mission.  The action operates through novel and revolutionary motion.  Pent up energies can be released with willful intent during this time, a departure from the recent Pisces super-conjunction of dreamy, empathic space.  This is a powerful time to set intent and act upon that intent!  But those actions may have unexpected results and accomplish what you want in near-wild way.  With Venus going into Aries on the 21st, it becomes a party in Aries.

The next stage is being setup for the coming Uranus-Pluto square, giving that alignment a charge and bequeathing another opportunity for the globe to enact healthy and clear change.  It starts from within ourselves to be the change we want to see in this world.  It is also to look at the bigger picture when taking those actions.  This spring was seeded from months and years prior, but even longer.  The setup is fueling a higher octave of what took place in the mid to late 1960s here in the United States but also throughout the globe.  With Neptune in Pisces and Jupiter moving into Cancer in late June, these actions can come from a place a love, transcending the culture of the last few thousand years into a more harmonious place for mind, body and soul.
