“I understand the world through music and I believe that music shapes the universe. Mankind has always had a sense of wonder about space, has always been curious. It’s something that’s implanted in us. It’s natural to want to travel and discover. It is, always has been, and is always going to be like this. We are space.”
— Vangelis

If Your Birthday is March 29
(The Day of the Observer) | Aries Birthday Reading | All Other Signs
Where do you locate your desire? Today you may notice it feels especially supported and informed by past relational structures and emotional needs. Yet, at its core, desire is of the present (even if it’s fueled by dreams of the near future). Particularly when discussing sexual desire, it pays to stay conscious of it as an embodied, real-time experience. So much of our interaction with and expression of desire is now mediated through digital technology, which can be a useful tool when used with awareness. But your physical senses very literally feed desire, and sexual desire can rev up your body like few other things. Stay in touch with that connection.
Written in the Planets
Today Mercury in Aries makes a trine with Saturn in Sagittarius. This brings an element of discipline into what might otherwise feel like an impulsive or reactive time. If you’re feeling fired up to get a particular project planned and organized, you can use today’s energy to good effect. Work systematically, even if you encounter an unexpected detail, development or glitch. With the Moon joining Mars in Taurus today, you can be persistent. Just be aware if your emotions start to simmer and approach a boil; using physical activity to let off steam before pressure builds too much could mean the difference between progress and regrets.
