Spring Equinox
When the Sun is at 00°00” in Aries it’s the Vernal (or Spring) Equinox, and the Spring Equinox is Athena’s birthday. It’s not about the date of March 20-22. It’s the timing of the arrival of the Sun at that position. This is when Mother Nature officially begins her new year on Earth. Now we have a time of emergence, growth, and beginnings. The harmonics of that degree is a signal that it’s time to awaken to new possibilities and begin the new cycle.
Athena’s Arrival
Millennia ago, the Pleiadians designed a program involving the arrival of many advanced cosmonauts on Earth. The Greek mythology around gods and goddesses is rooted in this program. There were 96 beings who were called goddesses. They were led by Athena, the goddess of wisdom. Athena, for whom Athens was named, was revered and loved by the Greeks. When she emerged on Earth, the Sun was at 00°00” of Aries, so it is also thought of as her ‘earth birthday’.
The genetics of the 96 were introduced to human DNA and still remain. People connected to these bloodlines are still linked to Athena energetically. So when our Sun arrives at 00 Aries, there’s a kind of ‘gong’ that happens. It’s not only the signal to Mother Nature of the new beginning, but it also stirs something in those connected to the goddesses of long ago.
At the same time this year, 2026, Mercury will go direct on March 20. There will likely be an emphasized feeling of forward movement. Recently, with so many planets in Pisces, including Mercury, it may have been challenging for some to discern what is real or imagined. Pisces is more about spiritual attainment and service than it is about clear perceptions. Have you felt like you’re seeing the world with foggy lenses? Things that you observe will become more clear, and the general optimism of Aries can replace any feelings of despair that Pisces can generate. With this combination of Mercury going direct, planets going from Pisces into Aries, and the Spring Equinox, you can expect the feeling of forward movement, finally!
Mercury Goes Direct
Then, by April 10, 2026, Mars will also leave Pisces and go into Aries. The energy of a fresh start, new enthusiasm, and new growth will take the lead, since Mars is the ruler of Aries.
Spring is the season for planting new seeds in your life. Look forward with enthusiasm and remember that it’s the best time to begin a new cycle. Aligning with Mother Nature and her seasonal timings can help get things back on track, especially after a harsh winter. Make the most of this window of opportunity!
