March 5 2022
8:28 PM Time Zone is CET
Paris,FR
Applying Sun Conjunct Neptune
Conditions now may be uncertain and unspecific. This is a time of unclear images and confusing events. It favors spiritual reflection, voluntary actions, artistic creativity, and leadership with vision.
Applying Moon Sextile Mercury
Feelings and emotions are expressed easily now. It’s a good time for meetings with females.
Mercury void in Aquarius
Nervous energy is high, schedules fall apart, communications fail, and things break. Changes or unusual conditions in the weather occur. High winds (mental and actual) blow through any thickness that resists movement. Matters connected with transportation will make news now. Disruptions may occur, making scheduling difficult. Weather changes may have a significant impact on certain areas of the world. It’s best now to cease initiating and get down to finishing what’s already been started. Seek closures and completions.
Venus void in Capricorn
Strong emotions precipitate action. Risks are taken that may not be supported by others. Impulsive decisions later prove troublesome. Matters of love and sex seem compulsive. In general, emotional and cultural matters are important themes now.
Mars void in Capricorn
Individual actions stimulate progressive movement or panic. Risks are run that favor the one over the many. Personal survival comes before group cooperation. This is a time for collective ventilation through sports or through some other kind of competition. A good fight is what’s needed. Leaders take actions, make decisions, and implement repairs. Constructive activities become more focused and detailed.
Applying Jupiter Conjunct Neptune
This transit marks a time of spiritual optimism, idealism, high hopes, and, more negatively, inflated expectations. Ideologies and beliefs are seen to motivate people toward the exploration of new territories. Some may research difficult moral or legal problems. In the arts and in music there is growth and new heights.
Saturn void in Aquarius
Formalities are the rule; traditions are maintained. Groups of old friends, family, and comrades assemble to remember the past. Conservatism rules; experiments fail. At this time leaders are under pressure and laws are put into effect. It’s a time for staying with tradition and not experimenting with new forms of social behaviors. The past triumphs.
Uranus void in Taurus
Actions are unconventional, radical, or surprising. Not everyone agrees on how things should go, therefore there is discord within groups. Others, who have a specific agenda, persevere to make their point despite fierce opposition. Social conditions are volatile now. The bottom could fall out. It’s a time for experimentation and deviant behaviors. Sudden, unusual, and disruptive conditions occur now that reveal deep inequalities in society and culture.
Neptune void in Pisces
Trends are unclear. Not everything is known, there is much to suspect. The fabric of reality seems to be ripped asunder. Faith in leadership is low. Social and economic conditions are unstable and subject to devaluations. The future looks uncertain and no one is taking any chances. Beliefs about reality are challenged. Some feel overwhelmed, even flooded, literally and figuratively.
Pluto void in Capricorn
There is movement toward displaying outright power. Tolerance and patience are pushed aside in favor of drastic actions. Old wounds are reopened and confrontations forced. Power plays occur. Secret forces make their presence known. Some seek to act on their urges, others attempt to stop them. Deep secrets are revealed. A collective cleansing is in order.

The void Moon occurs from 3:02, with the Moon’s last aspect before changing igns (a conjunction to Saturn), until the Moon enters Pisces the next day, Tuesday, March 1st, at 21:54.
This week: The Sun is in Pisces; Mercury is in Aquarius; Venus is in Capricorn; Mars is in Capricorn.
The Sun is in Pisces from February 18-March 20. With the Sun in Pisces, we are guided by altruistic feelings. We are less motivated to do than we are to feel, imagine, and dream. A “what will be, will be” attitude reigns, and we are guided by a sense of universal correlations. Pisces rules empathy, selfless love, devotion, and wisdom. Its shadow side can include self-pity, a feeling of being victimized by life, passivity, and elusiveness.
While we may not always verbalize our feelings and impressions during this cycle, they’re strong and motivating. We prefer to believe and trust, giving things/people the benefit of the doubt until they prove us wrong. We might often tune out problems or conflicts rather than tackle them head on, hoping they will iron themselves out. Prosperity flows when we’re connecting with our heart, being kind, and helping others. The need to withdraw or retreat to restore our energy is strong from time to time.
Mercury is in Aquarius from February 14-March 9. When Mercury is in Aquarius, we are hungry for knowledge and open to new and original ideas. We begin to think outside of the box, and our thinking becomes more progressive and objective. Our communication and thought patterns are spontaneous, somewhat fragmented, reasonable, objective, and liberal. This is a time when inventive thinking is at a peak.
We’re reasonable, finding it easier to separate intellect and emotion when assessing a situation. Although progressive-minded and receptive to new studies and information, we are not quick to sway from our ideas and beliefs. During this cycle, we take more interest in thinking that’s daring or original. As we envision a better future, we can come up with truly interesting ideas and concepts.
Venus is in Capricorn from November 5, 2021-March 6, 2022. [This is longer than usual due to the Venus retrograde, occurring entirely in the sign of Capricorn, from December 19, 2021-January 29, 2022.] Getting serious about our finances and boosting our relations with business partners and/or co-workers will be easier than usual under this influence. Our talents for creating artistic structure and form are enhanced, and our ability to form connections with people who support our ambitions increases.
We value enduring connections, reliability, and faithfulness. We take expressing our feelings seriously, and we take our time to warm up to others. We generally keep our “cool” in relationships. We’re steadfast and seek genuine, perhaps old-fashioned connections. It’s not a time for PDA, and we can be somewhat guarded and reserved with expressing our feelings or revealing our relationships.
The underdog who works hard can have their time in the sun now. We value slow and steady effort and long-term prospects. Reliability in others is most attractive.
This cycle favors getting along well with higher-ups, conservative business goals and ventures, long-term investments, and matters related to pension.
Mars is in Capricorn from January 24-March 6. Mars in Capricorn is deliberate, persistent energy. We consider the future and the consequences before taking action during this cycle. Our energy is reliable and faithful. We are slow to anger, but can be quite cold if we are frustrated. The shadow side of Mars in Capricorn is rigidity.
The NEW MOON occurs on Wednesday, March 2nd, 2022, at 12:35 PM EST.
The New Moon in Pisces marks the beginning of a new cycle, occurring midday Wednesday. The Aquarius New Moon cycle ends and the Pisces New Moon cycle begins.
The New Moon in Pisces is a good time to commit to personal goals that express the positive energies of the sign of the Fish. These include taking a leap of faith, accepting imperfections in ourselves and in others as a different kind of “perfection,” starting a project that requires imagination and visualization skills, consciously putting time aside for peaceful and rejuvenating activities, and sharing a dream with another.
With this potent Pisces energy, we have the chance to make important changes in our lives.
This New Moon is especially warm, generous, and optimistic with its alignment with Jupiter. Its sextile to Uranus is progressive, open, and change-positive.
The major bodies are all direct, contributing to a feeling of moving forward. Venus, Mars, and Pluto are closely conjunct at the time of this New Moon, adding a dynamic and creative element to the energies of our new beginnings. Relationships can be at the heart of our new beginnings, fueling our motivation to start fresh. Mercury and Saturn are closely aligned, lending a serious theme to the energies of this lunation.
New Moon in Pisces Chart: March 2, 2022
This phase of the Moon occurs at 12 degrees and 7 minutes of Pisces, affecting people with personal planets and points at approximately 8 to 16 degrees of the Mutable signs (Gemini, Virgo, Sagittarius, and Pisces) most significantly.
Sun in Pisces The mystic, the martyr, the sinner, and the saint: these archetypes take on greater importance in your life at a time like this. Forgiveness, compassion, and understanding come naturally, when you look at life from an eternal perspective – and if anyone ever does know such things, you’ll probably come to understand them as this cycle unfolds. This can be a phase of sublime spiritual development, to be sure. But you should be aware of tendencies to believe too quickly, too deeply, or to become dependent on things or people that seem to offer quick and easy answers to life’s deepest yearnings.
Mercury in Aquarius The tried and true doesn’t cut it anymore: it’s the new, the unique, and the original that catches and holds your interest now. Idealism, rationality, and critical thinking become more and more a part of your mental patterns and the way you communicate. You are inventive, original, high tech.
Venus in Capricorn Marry for money and then learn to love ’em: that’s what your heart tells you now, as a new cycle gets underway in your life. Does that sound cynical? Maybe so – but it does reflect the yearning you feel for security and stability now, and it suggests the kind of compromises you may be willing to make to accomplish these objectives.
Mars in Capricorn With this new cycle taking hold in your life now, taking charge and being in control become more important issues for you. You want to get things organized, and you have the initiative to do it. This is a time of ambition and responsibility, a time to keep your cool and pace yourself. Working hard is smart, but working smart is better.
Jupiter in Pisces Mysticism, sensitivity to the needs of others, and an awareness of karma (the link between the present and the past): these are your paths to spiritual growth now. Addressing these issues brings you gain and satisfaction at many levels. A tolerance for differences, an understanding of human frailties and shortcomings.
Saturn in Aquarius Ideals are in for a period of testing, as a new phase begins in your life. What are principles worth, unless they are put into practice? That’s an important question for you now. This could mean you may be disappointed by causes you believe in – but if you abandon your principles, you lose.
Uranus in Taurus Practicality and ingenuity combine as powerful drives in your life now that you have begun a new cycle. Taking innovative concepts and making them real and practical is your strong suit; getting stuck in the mud is to be avoided at all costs. Financial savvy, inventiveness, worldly genius.
Neptune in Pisces Things spiritual and psychic take the driver’s seat of your imagination as you begin a new cycle. The fine arts and all manner of fantasies assume a larger-than-life importance. Surrendering to fate, karma, and other powers greater than merely mortal may be seen as the ultimate liberation. If all is Maya (illusion), what is the reality that gives rise to the world of appearances?
Pluto in Capricorn As this new phase dawns for you, the pursuit of social/political power and status has a way of seeming necessary and inevitable – and let nothing stand in its way. It starts out small but has bigger consequences than you’d think. Ambition, responsibility, a place for everyone, and everyone in their place…

Putin warns of wider war from a no-fly zone as key port siege resumes
Mar 05 2022
Russian President Vladimir Putin warned that any countries imposing a no-fly zone over Ukraine would become party to the conflict
Kyiv (AFP) - Russian President Vladimir Putin on Saturday warned the West of a wider war if a no-fly zone is set up, as his forces resumed an offensive against a key Ukrainian city where a planned evacuation of residents failed to take place over security fears.
With his Ukrainian counterpart Volodymyr Zelensky criticising NATO for ruling out a no-fly zone for fear of sparking nuclear conflict, Putin spoke of “colossal and catastrophic consequences not only for Europe but also the whole world”, if such a zone was set up.
“Any movement in this direction will be considered by us as participation in an armed conflict by that country,” Putin said.
Civilians are now fleeing Chernihiv after an intense bombardment and air strikes, but all but one route out of the city are blocked
For Zelensky, on day 10 of the invasion, under an escalating bombardment that has flattened more and more infrastructure and sent nearly 1.4 million civilians fleeing for their lives, the Western military alliance’s “no” to a no-fly zone had essentially given “the green light for further bombing of Ukrainian cities and villages”.
The strategic city of Mariupol proudly resisted Moscow-backed rebels during a 2014 conflict, but the Azoz sea port has for days been without electricity, food and water in the dead of winter and people began gathering for the evacuation.
After Russia’s defence ministry declared the ceasefire – to open a humanitarian corridor out of the war’s fiercest battles – officials said the city’s 450,000-strong population could begin to leave by bus and private cars.
However city officials then called a delay in the evacuation, saying: “The Russian side does not adhere to the ceasefire and has continued shelling both Mariupol itself and its environs, and for security reasons, the evacuation of the civilian population has been postponed.”
Russian forces have laid siege to the southeast city of Mariupol for days, cutting electricity, food, water, heating and transportation
Russia later announced the assault was back on.
“Due to the unwillingness of the Ukrainian side to influence nationalists or extend the ceasefire, offensive actions have been resumed,” at 1500 GMT a Russian defence ministry spokesman said.
The siege came as more Russian forces inched closer to the capital.
The western edge of Kyiv bears witness to a human tragedy whose scale grows ever greater as Russia’s assault becomes more determined and indiscriminate.
Working class towns such as Bucha and Irpin are in the line of fire and air raids on Friday broke many people’s resolve to stay.
“Warplanes. They are bombing residential areas – schools, churches, big buildings, everything,” said accountant Natalia Dydenko said after a quick glance back at the destruction she left behind.
Graphic showing key developments in Ukraine as of March 5, 11:20 GMT
Dozens of civilians have been killed in assaults on the northern town Chernihiv. Those remaining live among the town’s ruins and in craters.
- Scenes of devastation -
“There were corpses all over the ground,” Sergei told AFP, as air raid sirens wailed once more. “They were queueing here for the pharmacy that’s just there, and they’re all dead.”
AFP reporters saw scenes of devastation – despite Moscow’s insistence it is not targeting civilian areas.
Zelensky remains defiant, announcing Saturday that Ukrainian forces were counter-attacking around Kharkiv, the country’s second largest city, which has seen Russian incursions and fierce bombardments.
“We inflict such losses on the invaders that they have not seen even in their worst dream,” he said.
The city of Irpin, northwest of Kyiv, has suffered heavy bombardment
Since Putin’s army invaded on February 24, Russia has pummelled Ukrainian cities, with officials reporting hundreds of civilians killed. Europe’s largest atomic power plant has even come under attack sparking fears of a catastrophic nuclear accident.
But Moscow has so far only seized two key cities in its 10-day-long invasion – Berdiansk and Kherson on Ukraine’s southern Black Sea coast.
Capturing Mariupol represents a bigger prize for Russian forces as it would deal a severe blow to Ukraine’s maritime access and connect with troops coming from annexed Crimea and the Donbas.
The Kremlin said it was waiting for a third round of talks with Ukraine in Belarus, and one of Kyiv’s negotiators said it hoped to hold them this weekend.
Pro-Ukraine rallies were held in numberous cities, including in Larnaca, Cyprus
A third round of talks would take place on Monday, the Ukrainian side said on Saturday.
Zelensky was to appeal to Washington for more assistance Saturday with an address to the US Senate after some lawmakers urged President Joe Biden to take tougher measures, including banning Russia’s oil imports.
With fears growing of direct conflict between NATO and Russia – both nuclear armed – the US and Moscow have set up a new direct phone line to reduce the risks of “miscalculation”, the Pentagon said Friday.
US chairman of the joint chiefs of staff General Mark Milley became the latest Western figure to rule out a no-fly zone, saying it would mean taking on Russian air forces.
“That is not something that NATO Secretary General (Jens) Stoltenberg or any member states senior political leadership has indicated that they want to do,” Milley told reporters in Riga.
- Media exodus -
Russian authorities have imposed a news blackout and multiple media outlets have halted operations. Twitter was restricted and Facebook blocked in Russia.
The UN says nearly 1.4 million refugees have flooded into neighbouring countries from Ukraine
A host of news outlets including the BBC, and Bloomberg said they were suspending work in Russia after lawmakers in Moscow passed legislation to impose fines and jail terms of up to 15 years for publishing “fake news” about the army.
CNN said it would halt broadcasting in Russia, while independent Russian newspaper Novaya Gazeta said it would remove Ukraine content.
The Kremlin on Saturday defended the new law, saying it was “necessary as the country was facing “an unprecedented information war”.
- Global hunger -
Putin has been unmoved as Russia has become isolated in economic, sporting and cultural fields.
But that did not stop tens of thousands of people from taking to the streets of cities across Europe, from Berlin, to London, Geneva to Paris, Prague Madrid and Vilnius to protest against the invasion.
And the list of major companies suspending operations in Russia grew again with Spanish clothing giant and Zara fast-fashion chain owner Inditex calling a halt.
Flagship airline Aeroflot said it was suspending all its international flights from March 8, citing “circumstances that impede the operation of flights”.

Ukrainians run for their lives from Russian bombs
Mar 05 2022
People have been crossing into Kyiv via what remains of a bridge which Ukrainian forces blew up last week to stall the Russian advance
Irpin (Ukraine) (AFP) - Exploding shells blew apart roadsides Saturday and Russian warplanes bombed stretches of the horizon as thousands of Ukrainians scrambled to escape Kyiv’s war-shattered outskirts by any means possible.
The roads on Kyiv’s western edge bear witness to a human tragedy whose scale grows ever greater as Russia’s assault on the Ukrainian capital becomes more determined and indiscriminate.
The Russian forces’ initial assault on Kyiv -– launched with missile strikes and an airborne assault on an airbase – stalled at the end of last week.
The two sides have since been locked in a long-range shelling war along Kyiv’s outskirts that has put working class towns such as Bucha and Irpin in the line of fire.
But people fleeing the two towns said their resolve to stay broke down when Russian warplanes started circling overhead and dropping bombs on Friday.
“Warplanes. They are bombing residential areas – schools, churches, big buildings, everything,” accountant Natalia Dydenko said after a quick glance back at the destruction she left behind.
The 58-year-old was one of thousands of people walking with their children and whatever belongings they could carry down a road leading toward central Kyiv and away from the front.
The metric booms of Russia bombs dropped from warplanes circling over Bucha and Irpin provided a morbid backdrop for their desperate march.
“It began two days ago. It wasn’t as heavy before, but two days ago it started getting really heavy,” she said.
- ‘We had to run’ -
People were trying to get to the remains of a bridge leading to Kyiv over the Irpin River which Ukrainian forces blew up last week to stall the Russian advance.
Civilians were using any means possible to escape the intensifying Russian assault on Kyiv's western edge
Ukrainian soldiers with assault rifles swinging off their shoulders helped wheelchair-bound pensioners and mothers with prams cross a few wooden planks tossed over the river on Saturday.
Thousands of people massed in stony silence under the shattered remains of the original concrete bridge while awaiting their turn to pass.
A group of soldiers was digging anti-tank missile launchers into foxholes on the Kyiv side of the river.
Another group was preparing new supplies of shoulder-launched missiles and Kalashnikovs that could be ferried back across the wooden planks toward the front.
A long-range missile whistled overhead.
A hollow thud about half a minute later signalled still more destruction somewhere in the general vicinity of northern Kyiv.
“We were waiting it out. But yesterday, when a plane flew by and dropped something on us, we simply had to run,” said Galina Vasylchenko, walking with her 30-year-old daughter toward the makeshift bridge.
- Shift in tactics -
The seeming shift in Russia’s strategy from shelling to aerial bombings is a bad omen for the Ukrainian capital.
Russian warplanes have bombed and killed dozens in the central town of Chernihiv and the eastern city of Kharkiv in the past week.
A grocery story that stood on a major intersection on Friday had been reduced to rubble by Saturday
Many analysts felt that Kyiv’s heritage – as well as a plethora of churches that answer to the Moscow patriarchate – would keep Russia from bombing the city of three million people.
But the destruction is creeping closer to Kyiv.
The town of Bucha – the further out of the two towns – had witnessed the first fighting and parts of the area are now all but razed to the ground.
That same level of violence is now raining down on Irpin.
A supermarket and petrol station that on Friday stood at a large junction on the border between Bucha and Irpin was just ruins on Saturday.
Soldiers were ushering the fleeing residents onto buses on the Kyiv side of the Irpin River because walking on that part of the city’s streets was no longer safe.
- ‘Nowhere to go’ -
Thousands more piled their belongings into cars and tried to get out of Irpin by taking a circuitous route that leads to Kyiv’s main train station from the southwest.
Ukrainian volunteer soldiers were assisting the mass of people fleeing the Russian bombings
A queue of cars stretching at least five kilometres (three miles) snaked its way past dozens of sandbagged checkpoints manned by armed Ukrainian volunteers in western Kyiv on Saturday.
Many had signs reading “children” taped to their windshields.
Fifteen-year-old Masha Shuta estimated that about 100 people might still be hiding in basements in her part of Irpin.
“They have nowhere to go,” she said. “But it is very unsafe to stay.”
