Mercury (communication) has joined the Sun (soul) in the sign of Aries (action) ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Mercury – intellect, information, expressing ourself, how we share information (writing, speaking, communication in general), and how we think through + analyze information Sun – vitality, leadership, authority, power, creativity, self-expression, the soul Aries – ACTION, initiation of & creation of movement, courage, raw pioneering energy, high energy, determination, warrior-like spirit ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ If you haven’t seen it already, this post: https://www.skool.com/realoccult/sun-joins-venus-in-aries?p=4b5ccee4 gives insight into the Sun in Aries energy. Now that our communication and processing of information has aligned with/joined our soul (the Sun) in the sign of courageous action it’s important to be careful of lashing out and saying things you don’t mean. The Aries intensity and impulsivity towards action can end up getting us into trouble if we’re not aware of it. With that said, this is a FANTASTIC transit for spreading our message and telling the universe what we want to have happen. We can literally begin creating (Aries) our desired reality (Sun) through our words (Mercury). ⚠️ This transit does cut both ways though ⚠️ If we’re focused on spreading negativity or doubt with our words and thoughts the universe will also deliver us that brutal reality. It doesn’t care. Our inputs (words & thoughts) directly create our outputs (lived experiences). This is an amazingly powerful transit for materializing deepest thoughts and desires! And it all starts with the words we say 🗣️

Last week we had the New Moon in Aries with the Sun + Venus and this week Venus has entered its home sign of Taurus! ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Venus – relationships, beauty, value systems, luxury Moon – emotions, the mind, intuition, our inner world, emotional safety New Moon – fresh start, internal reset, introspection creating a new beginning, death and rebirth Aries – ACTION, initiation of & creation of movement, courage, raw pioneering energy, high energy, determination, warrior-like spirit Sun – vitality, leadership, authority, power, creativity, self-expression, the soul ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Our inner-emotions (Moon) and core self (Sun) have been getting a boost of action-focused energy from Aries while our value systems (Venus) were adjusting to give us the support required in this new cycle of universal energy. With Venus now in the strong, convicted, and slower moving sign of Taurus our value system is starting its own journey of growth and expansion. We're slowly and steadily beginning to move forward with this new support/value system. The universe put us in the fire (New Moon + Sun + Venus in Aries) to burn away the old so that we can slowly begin the process of growing in beautiful new ways! New growth doesn't happen instantly... it takes time. A huge part of Venus being in Taurus is understanding beautiful things take time to create. It's super important to start replacing the pressure of "the rush" and "right now" for slow and steady progress. We're all experiencing the multi-year journey called life, and the end destination FOR ALL OF US is death. Rush is literally imaginary. There is no escaping Saturn's ring. Things unfold exactly as they should. We're here to enjoy the ride. So, take a breath. Breathe deep. Enjoy the air. The life we're living is beautiful and Venus in Taurus is here to remind us.

This New Moon is all about power and strength for building. If you haven't already, be sure to check out this post and the gandanta zone post linked inside that covers Sun + Venus in Aries. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Moon – emotions, the mind, intuition, our inner world, emotional safety New Moon – fresh start, internal reset, introspection creating a new beginning, death and rebirth Aries – ACTION, initiation of & creation of movement, courage, raw pioneering energy, high energy, determination, warrior-like spirit Sun – vitality, leadership, authority, power, creativity, self-expression, the soul Venus – relationships, beauty, value systems, luxury ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ If the universe has been wearing you out lately it's NOT because you're lacking discipline and motivation! This transit is telling us we're tired because we're "focusing" on too much. The Moon is requesting honesty about how much we're truly capable of taking on at our current stage. Our Sun (soul) and Venus (value systems) have been through the Pisces --> Aries transition, and now the Moon (our inner world) is going through the same thing. It's time to eliminate the things that aren't needed right now. We can always revisit them in the future when we're further along our journey and have more capacity. Focus on keeping the main thing the main thing. Everything else will fall into place. We're building slowly. There is no rush!

Venus – relationships, beauty, value systems, luxury Aries – ACTION, initiation of & creation of movement, courage, raw pioneering energy, high energy, determination, warrior-like spirit Pisces – endings, transitions, flow, awareness ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ When planets enter the watery undercurrent of Pisces, they're forced to face and deal with the emotional weights that have been pushed away unsettled as Pisces is the last sign. Once they've completed their Pisces transit they pass through the gandanta zone, which is a spiritual knot connecting Pisces to Aries. The planets pass through Pisces' watery weight of awareness before entering into the high energy & fiery Aries where these burdens are officially released/burned off through new actions. Then, the whole cycle starts all over with a new set of experiences and lessons for us to learn. Venus just completed this process and the Sun, Saturn, Mercury, and Mars will also be going through the same thing! This is continuing the main theme for 2026 of separating from the old 9 year universal cycle (2017 – 2025) by creating a new foundation for this current 9 year cycle (2026 – 2034). Pisces brings awareness before Aries helps us create new actions. Pisces escapes. Aries confronts. We go from understanding why something happened to actually dealing with it. Even if it's messy! Pisces gathers everything left unresolved, softens our defenses/usual coping patterns, and persistently creates an increasing amount of awareness before the gandanta knot thrusts us into Aries where the universe doesn't care if you're ready or not... it's time for ACTION and MOVEMENT. With Venus transiting from Pisces to Aries it's common to act on our desires/urges quickly before detaching just as fast. "I absolutely have to buy this!" can quickly turn into, "Wow! This thing absolutely sucks!" Also, Aries with its individuality and determination can create an "I'll do this all by myself" energy. Independence is great, but also be mindful of the awareness Venus (relationships) in Pisces brought.

The Sun is now passing through the gandanta zone! Sun – vitality, leadership, authority, power, creativity, self-expression, and our inner soul Venus – relationships, beauty, value systems, luxury Aries – ACTION, initiation of & creation of movement, courage, raw pioneering energy, high energy, determination, warrior-like spirit ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ The Sun is now in the fiery sign of Aries! Our soul feels lighter. There's an urge to pursue those things we've been waiting on. It's time to be bold about our interests/disinterests! Saturn has prepared us for the outcomes. It's go time.
