Life is moving forward at full speed now, but if we don’t take in the lessons of this week, we might just get distracted!
Traditional astrology (and astrologers!) will lead you astray if you’re hung-up on reading your daily horoscopes. There will technically be a new “Squirrel!” almost every day this week! But the real question—and perhaps the culmination of the lesson of our first ACTUAL cosmic event this week—is: can I stay on track instead of losing myself on every detail? Do I even need to take a deep dive into this discussion that leads nowhere, or can I use my diplomatic charm to gloss over the parts that don’t truly matter, and simplify?
So that said, here’s what DOES matter: this week kicks off with a gorgeous Full Moon in the indecisive sign of Libra and ends with communication planet Mercury joining the party in Aries. (Please disregard your horoscopes from Monday through Friday!)
Libra Full Moon on 3/28 at 2:38pm EST / 11:38am PST:
This week starts out with a delicate “bang!” with our annual Libra Full Moon on Sunday afternoon! What situation, relationship or dream were you taking steps toward after the Libra New Moon last November 16th (2020)? Whichever area of your life this is, expect to either see a culmination, celebration, completion, or closure! Or, perhaps, you stumble onto some secret information and now need to make a decision about said situation!
Here are the areas that this Full Moon most likely affects:
ARIES: Partnerships, Competition
TAURUS: Work, Health, Productivity
GEMINI: Creativity, Pleasure, Romance, Fertility
CANCER: Home, Family, Real estate
LEO: Communication, Writing or speaking projects, Sales
VIRGO: Earned income
LIBRA: Identity, Personal goals, Appearance
SCORPIO: Closure, Psychic insight, Healing
SAGITTARIUS: Humanitarian efforts, Friendships
CAPRICORN: Career
AQUARIUS: Higher education, Religion, Legal matters, Entrepreneurship
PISCES: Sex, Intimate relationships, Secrets
Whatever the BIG TOPIC is, we have our Libran graces to collectively fall back on! After the Sun and Venus all piled up in the fighting sign of Aries for the past couple weeks, this Full Moon allows us to do it differently: with true cooperation, charm, and diplomacy!
What if the situation in question could truly be a win-win? What if you could get YOUR desire AND someone else get THEIR dream as well? What if a part of your identity weren’t being brutally split off from you to make a single concession and hear the other party’s needs and concerns? And what if you were able to use your social graces to deescalate a potential eruption without anyone being the wiser?
Under these skies, we will all care about the PEOPLE and the RELATIONSHIPS involved—not just the facts. After all, if NO ONE feels good about the outcome…just, WHY?!

Mercury enters Aries on 4/3:
Messenger Mercury joins forces with the Sun and Venus on Saturday, April 3rd—in the competitive, bull-dozing sign of Aries—where he’ll reside until April 19th!
On the positive note, this means that we’ll collectively end our fuzzy dream-state of the past few weeks, when Mercury was in boundary-less Pisces. Admittedly, we might have felt rudderless during that time, which could have felt frustrating, considering we were all getting the “all signal’s a go” message from the world.
For the next two weeks, our mind and words can finally catch up to the prevailing energy around us:
Our thinking will be more clear!
Our needs obvious.
Our communications more direct!
The path to our goals “as the crow flies” direct (that means, the MOST direct route imaginable, even if you can’t actually do it that way)!
We’ll have courage to say the uncomfortable things that bring us closer to our desires.
However, this also means that our words and actions might be a bit brash and rub LOTS of people the wrong way. We won’t care as much about being “liked”—we’d rather win.
We won’t care—in the moment—but a few weeks from now, it might bite us in the ass!
This also means that we might make some spontaneous decisions that we regret later. Hey, it comes with the Mercury-in-Aries territory!
