I’m sure you’ve noticed occasionally that some days you feel full of energy, some lethargic and some down right cranky. Many people realize that this is a result of the orbit of the moon around Earth, but the fluctuations of the moon phases is a general consideration. The moon orbit alone does not describe how the moon triggers energy in you or any individual person.
As the moon cycles through its phases it also makes a conjunction (joins) with each and every other planet in your and any person’s birth chart. So, while most people will feel more sociable during a waxing Libra moon, in your birth chart this Libra moon could be joining up with your Mars in Libra. This will make a Libra moon feel very different to you compared to most people. It will feel more frustrating at having to consider too many other people’s opinions or feelings in a social setting. Whatever your personal planetary configurations the moon coming around to touch & trigger your birth placements will give you an individualized experience.
This post is specifically about the moon forming a conjunction to Mars in the birth chart. Since Mars is how we expend energy and how we move in life, physically and metaphorically, you’ll likely feel more active and courageous as you work on achieving goals. This happens every month, no time like the present to start making a note in your calendar of this moon Mars conjunction for building awareness of a very useful energy increase. If your Mars is in the sign of Capricorn, for example, you will know that every time the moon moves into this sign it will join up with your Mars.
Things to notice are: do you have more energy if the moon is waxing (increasing in light) compared to the moon waning (decreasing in light)?
Is your Mars in close aspect (in close relationship) to other planets in your birth chart or is it separated by itself in the chart? Do you have more arguments as the moon joins your Mars (Mars likes to fight for things)?
Remember, the moon moves fast, it will only join up with your Mars for 2 1/2 days. So, if you notice difficulties know that it won’t last long and you can plan more physical exercise on these days to help channel the frustrated energy. If you notice a high level of energy then know that you can schedule more work tasks, for example, than usual and you’ll have the drive to get it all done.
Once you have your awareness of your personal reaction to the moon conjuncting your Mars you can also pay attention to the moon conjuncting the current placement of Mars, the transiting Mars. This conjunction will occur in a different sign every couple of months. You can learn even more about how you react when Mars is triggered by the moon according to the sign it’s in.
This month, March 7, the moon will conjunct Mars in Aquarius. Venus will be nearby in Aquarius as well so it likely be a more amicable energy. Aquarius is the sign of intellectual pursuits and looking at ideas relative to people as a group, rather than an individual. Aquarius asks “What is good for the whole of mankind?” This is a good time to actively share futuristic ideas and concepts.
I suggest working with one planet at a time when observing a possible moon triggering affect. You may find that your energy (high or low) is more triggered with certain birth planets and not as much with others. The only way to figure it out is to actively observe it each month. Put it in your schedule, give yourself a reminder, put a post it note on your mirror, it will only help you understand yourself a little and your energy levels a lot more.
