Energy This Week

The final days of winter are drawing to a close. On March 20, with the spring equinox, astronomical spring begins. For many ancient peoples, this moment marked the true beginning of the year—a time of new cycles and renewed energy. The months of January and February were devoted to rest, introspection, and reflection—a period to pause and reflect on the past and prepare for the revitalizing spring.

The energy of renewal and movement is strongly palpable. On March 19, we have a new moon in Aries: a true kickstarter that invites you to take the initiative and start anew with fresh courage. On March 20, Mercury also turns direct again, allowing communication, plans, and insights to flow more easily. In addition, the energy of Jupiter—which turned direct in Cancer last week—can be felt like a warm wave of positivity, nurturing, and comfort.

Jupiter in Cancer allows you to grow through emotional security, care, and connection, rather than through ambition or pressure. The focus is on healing old emotional wounds, deepening relationships, processing unresolved grief, and strengthening your intuition.

By consciously listening to your feelings and investing in what brings warmth and stability, space naturally opens up for new opportunities, personal growth, and a solid inner foundation. First, you must blossom from within; only then can your growth also manifest in your surroundings.

The moon phases this week:waning moon (until March 18), new moon (March 19), and waxing moon (from March 20).

Because these energies are so closely intertwined, we discuss them together. The new moon in Aries on March 19 brings a powerful energy of new beginnings, action, and renewed courage. It is the first sign of the zodiac. Aries is known as the pioneering sign and a daredevil—one that energizes you, sets you in motion (pushing you forward with its horns), and empowers you to pursue your personal goals with enthusiasm and drive.

The timing is particularly favorable (perfectly in sync with the greater whole): one day before the spring equinox and just before Mercury turns direct again in Pisces. It’s as if multiple cosmic forces are coming together to open an energetic portal for breakthroughs, creativity, fertility—both literally and figuratively—and the changes you’ve been waiting for so long. Finally, everything starts moving again.

This new moon supports setting intentions that truly come from your heart and encourages you to take the first step. No matter how small. Just do it. Just start. There is nothing to fear. And suppose it doesn’t work out—so what? You’ll be one experience richer. But try looking at it another way: suppose it does work and brings you liberation and joy. Feel how that possibility already exists within you, and let that guide your steps.

On March 20, the sun enters Aries, amplifying this fiery, initiative-driven energy. The spring equinox marks the beginning of astronomical spring in the northern hemisphere. Day and night are then of equal length everywhere in the world. This special moment symbolizes renewal, growth, and the restoration of your balance.

It is a time to let go of old patterns, ground your intentions, and open yourself to new possibilities. With Mercury turning direct again, communication flows smoothly, insights become clearer, and plans can be put into action more easily. Keep in mind, however, that Mercury’s post-shadow period will last for several more weeks.

At the same time, this fiery energy is softened and supported by Jupiter in Cancer. This allows you, as you take new steps, to rely not only on ambition but also on your intuition, emotional wisdom, and the support of your relationships and surroundings. It is a perfect blend of decisiveness and sensitivity, in which your choices nourish both your heart and your mind.

This period invites you to reflect on what you truly want to begin, to release old energy, and to make room for new possibilities. Listen to your feelings, dare to take concrete actions that reinforce your intentions, and focus on the people and circumstances that offer you warmth and stability. Growth comes about here both through courageous steps and through self-care and self-awareness. Start from within, and allow your new initiatives to naturally extend to everything around you.

“Are your light and darkness in balance? And what do you need to find balance and take action? Go for it.”

This Week's Energy

The final days of winter are ticking away. On March 20, with the spring equinox, astronomical spring begins. For many ancient peoples, this moment marked the true beginning of the year, a time of new cycles and renewed energy. The months of January and February were characterized by rest, introspection, and reflection—a period to reflect on what lies behind you and prepare for the revitalizing spring. 

The energy of renewal and movement is strongly felt. On March 19, we have a new moon in Aries: a real kickstarter that invites us to take the initiative and start afresh with renewed courage. On March 20, Mercury also turns direct again, making communication, planning, and insights flow more easily. In addition, the energy of Jupiter—which turned direct in Cancer last week—is palpable, like a warm wave of positivity, nurturing, and comfort.

Jupiter in Cancer helps you grow through emotional security, care, and connection, rather than through ambition or pressure. The focus is on healing old emotional wounds, deepening relationships, processing (unresolved) grief, and strengthening your intuition. 

By consciously listening to your feelings and investing in what brings you warmth and stability, you naturally create space for new opportunities, personal growth, and a solid inner foundation. First, you must blossom from within; only then can your growth extend to the world around you. 

This week's moon phases: waning moon (through March 18), new moon (March 19), and waxing moon (starting March 20).

Because these energies are so intertwined, we’ll discuss them together. The new moon in Aries on March 19 brings a powerful energy of new beginnings, action, and fresh courage. It is the first sign of the zodiac. Aries is known as the pioneering sign and a daredevil, which “turns you on,” sets you in motion (pushing you forward with its horns), and inspires you to pursue your personal goals with enthusiasm and drive. 

The timing is particularly favorable (perfectly aligned with the bigger picture): one day before the spring equinox and just before Mercury turns direct in Pisces. It’s as if multiple cosmic forces are converging to open an energetic portal for breakthroughs, creativity, fertility—both literally and figuratively—and the changes you’ve been waiting for so long. Finally, everything is starting to move again.

This new moon supports setting intentions that truly come from your heart and encourages you to take the first step. No matter how small. Just do it. Just get started. There’s nothing to fear. And suppose it doesn’t work out—so what? You’ll be one experience richer. But try turning it around: suppose it does work out and brings you liberation and joy. Feel how that possibility is already within you and let it guide your steps.

On March 20, the Sun enters Aries, amplifying this fiery, proactive energy. The spring equinox marks the beginning of astronomical spring in the Northern Hemisphere. On this day, day and night are of equal length everywhere in the world. This special moment symbolizes renewal, growth, and the restoration of your balance. 

This is a time to let go of old patterns, ground your intentions, and open yourself up to new possibilities. With Mercury now moving direct again, communication flows more clearly, insights become sharper, and plans can be put into action more easily. Keep in mind, however, that Mercury’s post-retrograde period will last for a few more weeks. 

At the same time, this fiery energy is softened and supported by Jupiter in Cancer. As a result, when taking new steps, you can rely not only on ambition, but also on your intuition, emotional wisdom, and the support of your relationships and those around you. It is a perfect combination of decisiveness and sensitivity, in which your choices nourish both your heart and your mind.

This period invites you to reflect on what you truly want to begin, to let go of old energy, and to make room for new possibilities. Listen to your intuition, dare to take concrete actions that reinforce your intentions, and pay attention to the people and circumstances that offer you warmth and stability. Growth arises here both through courageous steps and through care and attention for yourself. Start from within, and let your new initiatives naturally extend to everything around you.
