So so so good, thank you. As someone without access to my birth time and therefore always sort of floating between ideas of what my astrology is, this feels like true nourishment.
I used to look at the transits, in which house it falls and all that. Until I realised I can feel it if I only listen to the voice inside and then act accordingly.
Analysing a chart and looking deep into it can help during times of confusion and aimlessness, but when you become dependant on what the stars say, you lose touch with your intuition and the voice of your heart.
omg so many good nuggets in this!!! You say things in a way that helps me interpret the reasons why I love astrology. It's a guide, it's given me permission to trust myself and the universe, it's countless moments to reflect on past huge astrological moments and set intentions for the ones to come. It's been the thing that's best help me release what no longer serves me and allow space for what does. I spent an hour journaling today after tracking past journaling I did for last year's new moons and OMG so cool to see similar thoughts I've had come up but in a new and more refreshed light ☀️😭☀️😭. So excited when I look back on this eclipse months later to see what new insight comes from it
We must divest from the illusion of control - absolutely love this! The temptation to look to astrology to provide the illusion of control or to try and escape pain is so real. I've gone through periods of my life when I've obsessed over my horoscope to try and gain comfort about how a situation would play out, and then I realized I was falling into this addictive behavior. Thank you for this lovely read!
tension has been built up since week ago .. and monday (the monday for me was 25, but i wonder, lunar eclipse was at march 24,monday?) it was really hectic day.
wish i could stay calm and observe. . but it was a lot and i totally lost my balance.
i wonder my chiron, mars in libra has meaning with this..
thanks again , would love to revisit and read again
This moon was no joke. It transited my 2H and 8H reminding me that I should be getting back what I put out. So many lessons about reciprocity that needed to be integrated with turning inward and resting.
I just really loved this, I wanted to hit the like button more than once. I have been feeling recently really…annoyed (? maybe that’s not the right word) that I feel like all my astrology newsletters or apps are always asking: what are you doing? What are your dreams? How are you working towards those goals? It’s starting to feel very capitalist culture just with a different bow on it. But this felt totally the opposite. So thank you for that.
i totally hear this. and while i def fall into that trap of do-do-do thinking sometimes, i've really been taking a step back this year and trying to reframe some things! so am glad this resonated.
In the last few years, I’ve changed my hope for a “happy life” to a “rich life” and it might be a coincidence but I’m definitely feeling the shift to be a good one.
I loved this SO MUCH, Jeanna. Thank you. This lunar eclipse is happening right on top of my natal Pluto, which is directly opposite my natal Mars. Oof. The weekend, and the week preceding has been a LOT. But it did prompt me to write about astrology in my own newsletter, which I don't usually do. We seem to be on the same wavelength: https://ashasanaker.substack.com/p/were-all-the-way-in-it
As you so beautifully say, resist efforts to fix and control. Stop looking for answers if you're awash in fear, and just pay attention to the natural world. Embrace the Mystery, what you call Change. It's all there is, ultimately.

OMG I love when that happens!
And this - "You say things in a way that helps me interpret the reasons why I love astrology." - is the highest of compliments. Thank you!
Aww I'm glad!!

The relief in me upon reading this piece,,, whew. Thank you <3
ofc <3
So so good.
1) I love that I learnt a new word that I had never before encountered, while reading this ("rollicking")
2) Deeply appreciate these reflections around time, I've been thinking about this quite a bit
3) Also, yes yes yes re: divesting from the illusion of control, this has been on my mind so much in the past weeks.
Super nourishing read. Thank you!
azur! as ever, i so appreciate you reading.
isn't "rollicking" a great word?
It really is!!
This is so so so good. I’m totally in it for the semblance of control - so thank you for the uncomfortable reminder to relinquish it!
i'm so glad!
I am so deeply happy that I found this substack.
In the last few years, I’ve changed my hope for a “happy life” to a “rich life” and it might be a coincidence but I’m definitely feeling the shift to be a good one.
This hit every single note. Thank you!
Laura! I'm so glad it resonated <3 Ty, as ever, for reading.

thank you, asha! i'm so glad this was resonant.
I appreciate you and your words, always. We are so lucky that you share your perspective with the world. 🩷
love you bb
I love love love this. Thank you for your real and raw perspective

Chills. Maybe it's the low-level delirium from insomnia or maybe just the normal full moon energy, but I felt this hit me hard in the best way.
oh, i'm so glad to hear! <3 also here's to sleeping this week!
