How Athens Received Her Name

Celestial Almanac for Wednesday, March 27, 2025

Curated by Lainie Gratz

✨ Astral Weather

  • Moon: Waning in Pisces

  • Transits:
    Venus conjunct Neptune in Pisces – the dreamy, dissolving heart
    Mercury Retrograde in Aries – the warrior rethinks his words

  • Portal Opening: Solar Eclipse in Aries this Saturday

  • Cosmic Shift Incoming: Neptune enters Aries on Sunday for the first time since 1862

🌟 Collective Message

The veils are thin today.

With the Moon waning in Pisces and Venus conjoined with Neptune, we drift in a sea of feeling—tender, intuitive, and a little undone. This is not a day for hard decisions. It is a day to dream gently, to grieve softly, to float in the in-between.

Mercury retrograde in Aries stirs old words, missed messages, and misfires of the tongue. But instead of charging forward, sit with it. Let silence speak. Let the ocean of the sky rewrite the script.

💫 Ritual of the Day

Take a warm bath or foot soak with Epsom salts, lavender, and blue lotus flowers. As you soak, whisper forgiveness—to yourself, to someone else, to the past. Let the water take it. Let your breath bless it. Let your tears be holy.

🪐 Affirmation

I am dissolving before I am reborn. I let it happen.

💎 Crystal of the Day

Labradorite – For intuition, mysticism, and protection during deep inner journeys.
Keep it near your throat or third eye today to anchor yourself in truth while you drift.

🌿 Botanical Ally

Blue Lotus – Dreamy, otherworldly, and gently euphoric. Sip as a tea, use as an anointing oil, or place dried petals on your altar to enhance intuition and access higher wisdom.

🎴 Card of the Day

📝 Journal Prompt

“What am I ready to release before this eclipse rebirths me?”
Where am I holding onto illusions, and what would it feel like to let go—even if I don’t know what comes next?
