Star Struck Style

I was bored out of my skull yesterday. Curiously, my thoughts kept turning back to the time when Saturn conjoined my natal sun back in 2019. I not only felt creatively bankrupt during that transit, but also at the mercy of the universe. Little did I know, a pandemic was on the horizon and I would be feeling much more helpless in the months to come.

I can attribute my current state of mind to the fact that I’m purposely laying low for a couple of days while I wait for Saturn to move into Aries. I can sense a cosmic shift coming, and I feel as if sitting back and observing what’s going on around me is a more prudent path to follow rather than rushing into the future headfirst. What’s more, the new moon eclipse in my fourth house doesn’t occur for another five days. I need to be patient now because the world might be a different place in a week from now.

Anyway, I noticed that the new moon occurs just minutes away from my fifth house. That means that the next new moon will actually skip over my fifth house entirely because it’s only about 27° wide. That also means that the full moon on March 3 will be just two minutes away from an exact conjunction with my natal Saturn in Pisces.

The full moon can be a crisis point. In this case, I hope that it is a crisis point because I feel as if my lack of creative spark is a crisis. It was a crisis during the pandemic when I had all the time in the world to do something creative and I couldn’t convince myself that spending my time writing was anything but futile. Pessimism about the future combined with my creative drought resulted in months and months of the sort of days like I had yesterday.

I don’t like feeling that way. I need the universe to slap me across the face so that I can snap out it. That might happen during the eclipse on March 3. Sure, I won’t have a new moon in my fifth house in 2026 to help me usher in a new era of creativity, but I will have an eclipse atop the ruler of my sun sign — the taskmaster of the zodiac — to let me know just how boring my life can be when I don’t allow myself to follow my muse.

Something is missing in my life right now, yet I have the feeling that I already know exactly what it is. The next few weeks are going to be very interesting for me as I start to rediscover what gets my blood pumping and my creative juices flowing. I can’t wait to see how this turns out!
