Welcome to the New Astrological Year! The Spring Equinox, aka the start of Aries Season, resets the zodiacal clocks and brings us back to the beginning.
The last week might have felt rough— transitions are never easy— and as we wrapped from Pisces season feeling emotional, exhausted, or even confused, we are emerging into a new beginning.
If you’re new to our little corner of the cosmos, we’re building Lora, a self-discovery platform coming this summer. While we build the product, our team will be popping in with astrological insights (written by our expert resident astrologer), conversations with spiritual practitioners, and some notes from the team as we build our version of SaaS (Spirituality as a Service) 🪐
Let's see what’s in the stars this week 💫
This Week in the Stars
From expert astrologer, Michelle Grodnick
Not only did Aries season begin on Friday, March 20th, but Mercury also ended its retrograde period that day. With the start of the Spring Equinox, we truly get new beginnings. Hallelujah!
If you’ve been dealing with communication issues, slowed progress, or a general lack of clarity, you’re not alone. Since February 26th, it’s felt like we’ve been in a time warp, taking 4 steps back to take 1 step forward. We deserve this season of fresh starts.
This Aries season is a special one as it’s the first time the Sun will meet up with Saturn and Neptune, which are both in Aries. The Sun illuminating these planets will highlight themes that will be prominent in your life until 2028. Over the next 2 years, we are overhauling our systems. The structures that keep the status quo (think: corporations, government, the economy, etc.) are getting a serious makeover. And let’s face it, we could really use an overhaul. iykyk.
On the individual level, this cycle is illuminating your own personal structures that need an update. Here’s an exercise for this Aries Season.
Check the house that is ruled by Aries in your chart:
- Aries Rising: 1st House (Identity)
- Taurus Rising: 12th House (Spirituality)
- Gemini Rising: 11th House (Community)
- Cancer Rising: 10th House (Career + Purpose)
- Leo Rising: 9th House (Higher Learning + Self Improvement)
- Virgo Rising: 8th House (Emotional Transformation)
- Libra Rising: 7th House (Relationships)
- Scorpio Rising: 6th House (Health + Routines)
- Sagittarius Rising: 5th House (Creativity + Pleasure)
- Capricorn Rising: 4th House (Family + Feelings)
- Aquarius Rising: 3rd House (Self Expression + Learning)
- Pisces Rising: 2nd House (Finances + Value)
Ask yourself: How are the topics of this house currently manifesting in my life? How can I overhaul how I’m approaching this area of life to better align with my authenticity? Where in this area of life can I take a risk, be brave, or try something new? Is there something I need to let go of?
Remember— this is Aries we’re talking about. It’s time for new beginnings, risk-taking, and action.
What will you do with all this newfound energy?
