♃ ☽ Jupiter is now Direct in Cancer ☾ ♃

From The Fog Tuesday - March 10, 2026

Followers of my page know it is rare that I post about the activities of the popular Asteroids, but today is an exception. At 5:22pm ET the asteroid Vesta moves into Pisces. Vesta is the asteroid that asks you to "devote," to make a sacred commitment to something that you claim to be an inner compelling. In many ways I like to describe Vesta as the "put up or shut up" asteroid, for that is the bottom line of what she is asking.

Her move into Pisces, after this major exit of Saturn and Neptune from Pisces, is significant. Bottom line: she acknowledges that the "Teacher" is not immediately present, but keep your focus on the "teachings" and not the Teacher. Another bottom line: even in the midst of all of the world's challenges, don't forget your faith.

This happening when Jupiter goes direct (at 11:29pm ET) is an invitation for you to see that the fog is starting to lift. The fog that kept you a bit squirreled away, and for many of you that fog started in 2020 when the whole covid thing went down.

No, we're not out of the woods. The world isn't a utopia (nor will it ever be IMHO), and the chaos is still there. But there's a renewing of your inner faith, of that fire that even the covid thing couldn't put out.

Pisces Rising / 1H

You’re resolving cognitive dissonance around your identity and how it impacts the energy you attract into your life. Has your delulu infused or confused you? You may be painfully aware of incongruence that needs to be addressed at this time. Leaning into creativity and spirituality is important for you, but be mindful of assuming identities that require receipts you don’t have yet. In other words, there’s a fine line between manifesting and bullsh*tting; avoid the one that will get you into trouble later. That said, you’re allowed to shed assumptions placed on you from a world that wants part of you to feel less than. At the start of the retrograde, when Mercury conjuncts Venus, you may have a heart-opening conversation with a sibling or someone in your inner circle around deeply private information. With the subsequent eclipse in your house of significant one-to-one partnerships, there’s a cleanse or reset in a romantic or business partnership based on self-(re)assessment. A contract may expire, causing you to seek out a new mechanism for constructing your legacy. 

You’ll get further insights a few days after the Virgo Lunar Eclipse that paint a brighter picture. This could jumpstart a new routine, change the way you work, or inspire your health regimen. When your chart ruler, Jupiter, stations direct on March 10th in your pleasure house, you may feel inspired to get moving again on creative work projects, dating, or efforts related to children. You still have the power to pursue a beautiful life story; just be sure the story you’re telling is your own. 

A few days later, a Mercury-Mars meeting could bring an exchange of harsh words between a partner or family member. Clashing values or ideologies could surface, especially if you feel taken advantage of. Cool your head for a couple days, as the path forward will materialize by the New Moon in Pisces. As you close out the retrograde, you’ll find deeper self-compassion and freedom to move more intuitively. 

Aries Rising / 12H

You are reconciling imbalances between chosen and inherited duties. Early in the retrograde, when Mercury and Venus get together, you might feel a soft opening to a conversation that previously made you a ball of stress. It could reveal how valued you feel in your personal and professional relationships. A few days later, the Virgo Lunar Eclipse in your house of daily routines calls attention to a work or health-related issue to be cleared up; you may find a heavy responsibility suddenly lifted from your shoulders. This might not feel immediately positive, but deeper insight comes later that week during quiet, reflective moments. Even if it’s still unclear why this occurred, you’ll most likely be in a mindset to accept it.  

When Jupiter stations direct on March 11th, you may find a desire to retreat is better facilitated, especially if you have been grinding with little to no breaks. You’ll find more opportunities to rest, travel, play, and do whatever brings you joy. Don’t be afraid to move in silence and venture solo for a bit; you’ll continue to receive downloads and process the recent energy through the end of the month. But heads up, on March 15th, the Mercury-Mars collision could have you yearning to restore an intimate connection or face unresolved questions around self-worth. Don’t go demanding answers from an ex now. You’ll be better equipped to seek solace in a couple of days under the New Moon in Pisces (pro tip: the issue is likely to resolve itself). Dedicating time for journaling, long reflective walks, or working one-to-one with a mentor or guru will prove highly beneficial.  You’ll be closing out this retrograde emotionally and spiritually renewed.  

Taurus Rising / 11H

You’re rewiring your energy around friendships, professional networks, and your long-term vision. Early in the retrograde period, you might start questioning who you spend the most time with and what you spend that time doing. When Mercury and Venus get together, you could rearrange your schedule and budget more joy into your routine, especially if you’ve been itching to reengage with a network. A few days later, the Virgo Lunar Eclipse closes a chapter in a love story, a creative project, or an activity related to children. This creates space for your budding plans. Later that week, clarity about your life direction may come through the re-emergence of a familiar feeling from your past. This feeling is the kind you want to hit pause on. Work on sustaining this energy; it’s a powerful tool in manifesting your desires. When

Jupiter stations direct on March 11th, you could see plans falling into place like magic again. There are opportunities to reestablish intimacy in your connections. Abandoned group chats may reignite. Remember, intimacy sounds like “into me I see,” so be willing to confront the patterns your relationships reflect back to you. When Mercury and Mars are conjunct on March 15th, you may sense subtle tension in private communications with someone. This has you wondering if it’s shade or if you’re imagining things. Something should click about this in a couple of days, so don’t feel like you need to address it in the moment. You’re learning a new way of expressing yourself in social spheres. Around the Pisces New Moon, you may start to initiate paid opportunities to share a creative skill you’ve been perfecting. You’re leaving the retrograde with deeper relationships and a more aligned vision.

Gemini Rising / 10H

You’re reassessing career moves. Are your comfort needs truly being met or is it time to schedule a compensation review? When Mercury and Venus meet at the beginning of the retrograde period, you could retrieve a hidden talent or skill that gets you noticed by the right people. On another note, a private agreement may go public before you’re ready. The Virgo Lunar Eclipse permanently closes a door at home. A fading family duty may put you out of your comfort zone, but your attention is required to rebrand your professional image. A couple of days post-eclipse, you start to understand these recent changes support your identity restructure. 

Jupiter stationing direct on March 11th gives the green light around a stalled partnership or contract, restoring income flow.  By the end of that week, however, a scheduling conflict or compensation dispute could surface under the Mercury–Mars conjunction. This tension may spill into home and family matters, bringing up old stress. Stay steady. A fated meeting or document arrives shortly after, resolving what felt unstable just in time for the New Moon in Pisces. Don’t let it worry you too much because a fated meeting or document could arrive a couple days later, sorting things out just in time for the New Moon in Pisces. You’re ending the retrograde, with a new image and a revised contract. 

Cancer Rising / 9H

You’re revisiting a personal belief system, learning path, foreign land or concept. Early in the retrograde, when Mercury and Venus convene, you may discuss plans around a new domicile which feels like a homecoming of sorts. A few days later, the Virgo Lunar Eclipse could bring surprising communication from a distant land or institution, or a message from siblings or neighbors, that shakes up some aspect of your day-to-day reality. By the end of the week, this news may take on a lighter tone, allowing for acceptance and release. 

When Jupiter stations direct on March 11th, you find expansion through increased daily meditations and spiritual rituals that restore peace to your routine. This also primes you for Mercury’s collision with Mars at the end of that week which may spark challenging conversations around withheld information. Within a couple of days, an epiphany helps you wrap your head around it all. It’s all part of the journey! The New Moon in Pisces welcomes new insights and experiences over the coming months that give evidence to your growth. You’re ending the retrograde with restored faith and stronger confidence in your direction.

Leo Rising / 8H

You’re reassessing shared finances and rules of intimacy. Early into the retrograde, when Mercury and Venus meet up, you may revisit a conversation about an income source; this may relate to writing and communications, networking and community, or could extend to a sibling's future plans that will impact you. Under the Virgo Lunar eclipse happening a few days later, a source of income or something else of value may depart. This could be a recurring cost or obligation returning to you in an unexpected way, but it should make sense by the end of the week. 

When Jupiter stations direct on March 11th, you’ll gain awareness of co-dependencies blocking true joy, and can begin healing. Conflicting ideas around the home, family, and shared expenses may stir strong emotions when Mercury collides with Mars on March 15th, but your perspective could shift a couple of days later as new insights arrive under the New Moon in Pisces. Your ideas around resources and how they affect intimate relationships could radically transform over the coming months. You’re leaving this retrograde with a greater willingness to release outdated mindsets and embrace a healthier approach to shared resources. 

Virgo Rising / 7H

You’re restructuring your ideas around partnership. Early in the retrograde, when Mercury kisses Venus, you could be redefining values tied to career and identity. Shortly after, the Virgo Lunar Eclipse allows you to shed any part of that identity that’s incompatible with your new vision. Any resistance eases a few days later when you discover deeper compatibility with a prospect you’ve been wanting to align with.

When Jupiter stations direct on March 11, you seek to expand your reach to groups and communities aligned with your vision. But be prepared: when Mercury collides with Mars on March 15, issues around contracts and communication about shared assets may need resolution. A couple of days later, insights arrive under the New Moon in Pisces, supporting a new agreement or approach. By the end of the retrograde, you’re walking away with renewed hope for partnership, community, and your future goals.

Libra Rising / 6H

You’re recomposing your daily rhythm. Early on in the eclipse when Mercury and Venus connect, you may start missing part of your past, with memories resurfacing in dreams. You might catch yourself spacing out more during the day, reminiscing about times long gone, which could lead to decreased productivity or trigger a self-sabotaging pattern. Even if this relapse occurs, the Virgo Lunar Eclipse facilitates its release, likely appearing as a blessing in disguise. Over the next few days, you’ll make peace with it, allowing space for a  healthier daily practice. 

When Jupiter stations direct on March 11th, you’re ready to get moving on work-related goals and projects, updating social media pages and increasing your visibility. On March 15th, when Mercury and Mars collide, a wrench in your plans may come through a conflict involving your or a partner’s current obligations. Within a couple of days, the New Moon in Pisces, leads you to a work around…or an even better approach. By the end of the month, you’re settling into a more comfortable, balanced daily routine.

Scorpio Rising / 5H

You’re reopening the door on romance and play, or reconnecting with children, including the one within. Early on in the retrograde, as Mercury flirts with Venus, a message from the past could move you. A dormant conversation regarding future plans may stir up mixed feelings. But the Virgo Lunar Eclipse that follows could permanently slam the door on this. Your status in a friendship or social circle could shift dramatically, but in a few days, you’ll begin to see why it was for the best. 

On March 11th, when Jupiter stations direct, you may reenergize travel plans or start saving. It could be a goal to take your children to an exciting destination, or start budgeting for their educational expenses. On March 15th when Mercury encounters Mars, tension could rise with a colleague, employee, tenant, or a recurring source of stress. Breathe through it; a resolution will find you in a couple of days. The New Moon in Pisces infuses compassion and creativity into your relationship with a child, lover, or your own sense of joy. You’re closing the retrograde with deeper passion and grace. 

Sagittarius Rising / 4H

You’re reconnecting with your family and roots. Early into the retrograde, Mercury and Venus come together to reevaluate your plans involving work agreements or private relationships. Less than a week later, the Virgo Lunar Eclipse ends a major chapter in your public life and career. It may rattle your nerves a bit, but within a few days, you realize fate is just doing its thing. 

On March 11th when Jupiter stations direct, you could restart a project clearing out clutter, closing out old contracts, or settling debts. This could be in preparation for a physical move or progress in family matters that were put on hold. When Mercury and Mars face off on March 15th, you may need to confront a home or family issue you’d rather leave in the past. Conversations could feel heavy, but a couple of days later, you’ll feel something click under the New Moon in Pisces. You’re ending the retrograde with renewed blessings on the homefront. 

Capricorn Rising / 3H

You’re revising your communication style. Early in the retrograde, when Mercury gets up close with Venus, you could regenerate a project that lets you show your creativity, perhaps sharing updates about it on social media. Under the Virgo Lunar Eclipse, you may part ways with a certain belief or idea you’ve carried for some time. Your worldview could change dramatically, further influencing how you use your voice moving forward. 

On March 11th, when Jupiter stations direct, someone you have a soul contract with may say something that clarifies what once felt too abstract. At the end of that week, a clash between Mercury and Mars could lead to a heated conversation involving family and friends, raising questions about community and collective progress. It’s possible that skeletons will come out of the closet; co-dependencies and self-sacrificial behavior could be named. But whatever needs to be said must be said. Within a couple of days, the dust settles and you’re receptive to the lessons of the New Moon in Pisces. Deeper compassion flows into your communications. You’re closing out the retrograde with a fresh voice and perspective. 

Aquarius Rising / 2H

You’re reconstructing your money moves and value system. Early in the retrograde when Mercury meets with Venus, you may review debts you’ve accumulated and what they reveal about your values surrounding education, travel, simple pleasures, personal comfort and family matters. This is an excellent retrograde practice. The Virgo Lunar Eclipse clears some confusion around shared resources, taxes, property, or intimate matters with a partner, creating greater alignment in your earning and spending habits. 

On March 11th, when Jupiter stations direct, pauses in your workflow end, and your schedule may start filling up with networking events and job interviews. At the end of that week, prepare for confusion in compensation talks; speak authoritatively but respectfully, and consider asking for more time to decide if you need to negotiate. Within a couple of days, insights and opportunities for growth emerge under the New Moon in Pisces, helping you close out the retrograde with an empowering, values-aligned offer.

Note:

When dealing with contracts during retrogrades, you’re encouraged to read, re-read, and get a second opinion (when possible) before signing on that dotted line. However, Mercury retrogrades three to four times a year. In my experience, making a major life decision during Mercury Rx, I faced a serious hold-up with documents and processing times due to a major disruption in operations. By the end of the retrograde, I had a completely different plan, and it worked out WAY better than I could have imagined. So, be prepared for things to change, but view these changes as a course correction. What is meant for you will not pass you. Now, if you’re making rash decisions out of fear, then you can expect things to go wrong like any other time we do that. But taking inspired action will be rewarded in some way, at some time. That’s just my two cents!

And if you need a space to retreat throughout the retrogrades in water signs over the next two years...

Thank you for the tip 🌹

🪐 With the cosmic shift of Jupiter stationing direct in Gemini/Punarvasu (March 10, 2026), the Universe is sending a very clear signal: The period of being “under the press” is over, and it’s time to move from the struggle of being misunderstood to the mastery of your own message.

Today marks a pivotal time where the “missed chances” of the last few months transcend into momentum. You are moving out of a phase of “doing the work” and into the phase of “sharing the wisdom.”

🥪 Like the Panini, you have been under intense heat and pressure recently. This wasn't meant to flatten you, but to solidify your ingredients. Jupiter going direct today is the signal that the “timer” has gone off. You are no longer the raw dough; you are the finished result, ready to be presented.

🥙 The Gyro card warns of mispronunciation, while Jupiter in Gemini/Punarvasu rules over speech and communication. This energy is specifically about reclamation. If you have been “mispronounced” (misunderstood, undervalued, or mislabeled) by others during the retrograde, today is the day you “take the arrow back” (Punarvasu’s symbol) and aim it with the correct terminology.

Overall, stop explaining yourself to people who aren't listening—and start speaking your truth to those who are. Take the time to forgive yourself for the “missed chances” of the past few months. Everything that was lost is coming back in a refined form (Punarvasu represents “the Return of the Light.” 🗣️👂🏾

💬 With Jupiter stationing direct in Gemini/Punarvasu today, the "pressure" of the last few months is finally turning into something delicious. Are you feeling like the Mispronounced or the Pressed One today?

💡 “I have been tested by the heat; I am now ready to speak my name clearly.”
