In the zodiacal dance with the Sun, each planet has an opportunity to tango one-to-one, when a one degree conjunction is formed between the two. This conjunction is referred to as CAZIMI. An Arabic term that translates to, ‘the heart of the Sun.’
When a planet arrives within fifteen degrees of a conjunctional exactitude, approaching or separating, it is said to be, ‘under the beams.,’ and gets lost in the glare At eight degrees it is at, ‘combustion,’ and loses it potency. However, when it emerges from this conjunction, its energies are renewed, refreshed, and revitalized, helping us to manifest our goals and dreams.
March this year is an astronomical journey, magical and mysterious, with retrogrades, a full lunar eclipse, a partial solar eclipse, the Spring Equinox, and four cazimi. Let’s look at each cazimi individually, along with its potential energetic influence.
March 12th, 11:28 AM GMT/6:28 AM EDT: In Pisces, Saturn cazimi arrives at 17 arc minutes of the heart of the Sun. Less than one degree. Here is an opportunity to effectuate change, move forward with clarity, wisdom, and purpose. Embrace your personal truths, trust your intuition, and open your soul to spiritual growth. Be patient and resilient. Do not fear the end of old paradigms as they give way to progressive new structure. This could lead to a time where boundaries find a balance with surrender
Sun, Moon, and Rising signs most impacted will be the mutable signs of Pisces, Gemini, Virgo, and Sagittarius.
March 2th/19th, 12:22 AM GMT/7:22 PM EDT: Neptune sitting at twenty-nine degrees of Pisces will create a subtle yet powerfully profound shift in consciousness when it conjuncts the Sun. These energies may create a sense of being awakened by a fever dream and the realization that things are not what they have seemed to be. Also, conjunct the North Node, our intuition and divine nature is awakened as well, inviting us to let go of rigid mindsets. This energy beckons us to let go of fear and illusion. To live as our unique and spiritual selves. Collectively we may emerge from the fog into the light.
Sun, Moon, and Rising signs most impacted will be the mutable signs of Pisces, Gemini, Virgo, and Sagittarius.
March 23rd/22nd, 2:07 AM GMT/9:07 PM EDT: Venus in retrograde, tracing back over territory in Aries, encourages self-reflection on what and how we love. Ask ourselves what are our expectations for relationship? Do I give too much? Do I take too much? Do I love myself? The cleansing power of the Sun combined with the fiery energy of Aries gives us the courage to embrace and reclaim our sovereignty with grace and dignity. To creatively express our own beauty and value.
Sun, Moon, and Rising signs most impacted will be the cardinal signs of Aries, Cancer, Libra, and Capricorn.
March 24th, 8:48 PM GMT/3:48 PM EDT: The Mercury cazimi in retrograde in Aries opens our thinking to moments of clarity. As we navigate false stories and rumors, we will experience stark revelations, instinctually knowing fact from fiction. Influenced by a sextile with Pluto in Aquarius, we find our voices, free of fear and doubt to speak our truth. Speaking with honesty, we stand as our own advocates. With deepened self-awareness we will intuitively see all that has been hidden from view. Buried thoughts may come to the surface as self-reflection examines our self-perception. It is a time of self-honesty as we unravel our own evolution, matching our words to our deeds.
Sun, Moon, and Rising signs most impacted will be the cardinal signs of Aries, Cancer, Libra, and Capricorn.
