What Was Left Behind?

Hi.

Let’s take a break from the noise for a moment.

There IS something serene and opening happening- this particular Mercury Retrograde in Pisces is inviting us to drift back to forgotten spiritual touchstones, or old creative projects. Mercury Rx reconnects us with ideas we thought were left in our wake. And I think Spirit is helping us all speak up about our dreams.

What I dream of is: growing The Eleven so it’s at a scale that becomes both a real community and something I can devote a majority of my time to. I imagine The Eleven, evolving into a place where you come to reconnect with yourself, independent of current events. Soulful astrology, breathwork, and wellness. A safe, soulful, AI-free, helpful, hopeful harbor in a quite-stormy world.

In the spirit of a retrograde pulling us from mind to heart, I found myself last week quite randomly returning to Transcendental Meditation after years away from it. (Forgetting my mantra for a while might have had something to do with me abandoning it 🙄) I also had the urge to write horoscopes again, something I haven’t done in a couple of years, but felt called to revisit. As I dip my toe into TM and horoscope writing, I’m more attuned now to how my thoughts and feelings are aligning- or not. Maybe Mercury Rx, especially in Pisces, has a way of resurrecting and bringing to mind what our souls miss? REsurrecting. REmembering. REvisiting. What did you used to dream of? What’s calling you…back?

☞ Below you’ll find this week’s audio: the astro weather for the week of March 1st.

☞ I also have some horoscopes below for this Full Moon Lunar eclipse in Virgo, and the two weeks following until the New Moon. (I would love you to share this if you like the horoscopes.🪬💙) Read your Rising sign first if you know it- that will be more accurate for what parts of your life are being tapped the next two weeks. Your Sun sign will likely apply to what’s happening internally.

This full moon eclipse is hopefully having you ask yourself, “Do I need some help?” I’ll help you out: you need some help. There is someone worth listening to, a teacher or mentor of some kind. Look for help. The interesting thing about needing help, looking for help, and asking for help is it takes courage do it. It takes courage to hand things over to a Higher Power for a moment. Put simply, everything is not all up to you to handle alone. This Full Moon is illuminating the path for you to surrender some of your control (which is not the same thing as surrendering your power.)

The next couple of weeks offer you the opportunity to see how you can get swept along into the stress of it all and find yourself overwhelmed by everything that’s changing- and a LOT is changing. This is exactly the right time to use the healing power of prayer, meditation or creativity- just engage in any kind of daily healing practice. Pick up that spiritual practice again. You’ll not only feel better, but you’ll feel more like yourself.

This Full Moon eclipse in Virgo is offering you the opportunity to stop outsourcing your validation and confidence in whatever way you’re still doing that. I’m not being harsh- we all do this in some area of our lives. It’s just that you’ve mastered the outsourcing-validation-pattern in some area of your life so it’s time to see it, admit it and give yourself your own stamp of approval. The next two weeks will help you “come out with something”- from your heart. Enough with the practical demeanor all of the time! What are you bursting with in your heart that you must express to your community, to yourself, in terms of your long-term goals?

The next couple of weeks is an opportunity to step into a surprising new dream. Do you have the courage to have a new perspective and step into that dream? Also, to help with this fresh embodiment, do your goals need updating? I’m imagining you in a group gathering, looking as if you’re doing what everyone else is doing, but on the inside, something is dawning on you- you might be sitting in church or at a group gathering, and an awareness is hatching inside you- something is softening, opening, becoming. Let yourself be surprised and brave as you witness your readiness to step into a completely new, bold phase of your life.

This Full Moon eclipse in Virgo is emphasizing a renewed focus on home and family, as well as your inner emotional foundations. The next two weeks are offering you the opportunity to dive deeply inside and refine the way you feel in your home life so that it feels like a stable, nurturing place in which you can settle each day. Do some physical and emotional feng shui. Creat a space in which you can come home to yourself regularly. Renew your devotion to your dreams, your calling. Home should be so restorative, a place you feel SO well cared for and regularly re-energized. Because you need meticulous self-care to cultivate enough energy, in order to be out there in the world.

Speaking of being out in the world, do you have the courage to take responsibility for putting yourself out there? You’ve been building the skills you need, but you’ve been rather private about it all. Do you trust that when you put yourself out there in the community, the angels have your back? Do you have confidence in the skills that you’ve built privately, or are you rehashing old stale patterns of self-doubt? Time for a pattern interrupt between your inner reality and your outward mission. Time to share your competence with the world, and trust that you are enough. More than enough.

This Full Moon eclipse in Virgo is setting you up to say the thing you’ve been preparing to say, stretch yourself in the ways you’ve been preparing to stretch... You’ve mastered the skills. What are you going to do with them? Where are they going to take you? Please don’t let your answer to those questions be predictable or a repeat of where you’ve been before. Your mind has opened to new possibilities. How has your perspective broadened because of what your awareness has opened to? You are wiser now. You have new data- it’s meaningful, and is an indication of how you’ve grown.

The next two weeks might challenge you to stand for something. Do you actually believe in what you say you believe in? Do you have the courage to walk your talk? You’re being introduced to new possibilities and it’s time to open up to them- dream a little bigger. The big reset that you’re walking into is asking you to have the kind of faith that makes your life feel like an adventure. Stop doubting, stop playing it so safe and small. Leap and believe.

This Full Moon eclipse in Virgo is helping you focus on your most basic resources, instead of an exhausting stream of endless wishes, hopes, desires and aspirations. Sometimes too much wanting makes us feel well…wanting. Lack. The result of feeling all this neediness is it can perpetuate endless waffling about your self-worth.

So to snap out of it, the question to ask yourself is: do I have the basics in life, the most basic elements of what I need to live? If the answer is yes, put your resources to good use. If the answer is no make a plan to get what you need- but only the basics. My guess is, once you take stock, you’ll find you do indeed have everything you need. Because you are 100% enough, since you are 100% made of Divine intelligence. You’ll be so much braver and calmer if you lead with this powerful knowing. The point is, don’t waste time churning and worrying and overthinking. If you’ve been carrying a tiny violin, put it down and take stock of what is truly meaningful to you. No one wants to hear you play a tiny violin- they want to hear what’s in your heart. And they are waiting. You don’t need to prove your worthiness. Lead with your heart- courageously.

This Full Moon eclipse in Virgo has you starting to refine your role in certain partnerships over the next two weeks. What actions need to be taken in a relationship? Which relationship, you ask? Well, look for partnerships where the problematic issue is primarily due to eroded boundaries. In which relationships have you been give-give-giving way too much? The realization that’s ripe to come up in the next two weeks is there’s only so much you can improve on in the two-way street of a relationship. It’s a two-sided situation and you can only address one side of it.

The next couple of weeks will introduce the idea of conjuring up some courage to face a tension-in-partnership issue. Do you have the courage to ask for help in sorting out a partnership that’s become too much of a drain or too confusing? You’re being offered much-needed clarity about some foggy conditions, confusions, or delusions in a relationship. I would expect you to be offered some experiences that help you have more clarity and less self-doubt. Have faith that things will run their natural course, and know that you have the skills to take on responsibilities- for your part only, and no more.

This Full Moon eclipse in Virgo would like you to review your to-do list and put things on it that have to do with your spiritual growth. Put prayer on your daily task list. Put meditation on your calendar. Schedule creativity like it matters to your soul- because it very much does. This might be easier said than done, because it takes focus, strong, intention, and sometimes even courage to quiet down and retreat into the void of “not being busy,” especially when you’re such a relational creature.

I promise you, worrying and overthinking aren’t the answer- silence is. Quiet your mind. Create some space in your head daily. This is just basic hygiene for your health and happiness. It would be Divinely wise to let go of the overthinking and bravely, directly choose surrender over perfectionism. Paradoxically, if you start to become more devoted to quiet time and consciously protective of your “surrender and retreat time,” this will start to translate into more relationship activity and intentional connections, especially in April.

This Full Moon eclipse in Virgo will probably have you checking back in on your 2026 goals and resolutions over the next two weeks. Did you remember to include joy, creativity, and seeking out inspired friends and mentors? Did you make your initial goals too much about tough healing, psychological grit and grind? The next two weeks are an incredible opportunity for you to relinquish the part of your ego that is attached to certain outcomes and aspirations.

Cultivate the courage to devote more effort to spiritual and/or creative practices- these help you loosen the latch on your heart, which is where the healing is trying to go. There is much joy to be released within you. Don’t be surprised if the joy comes out as tears. Your heart is primed to directly experience and realize your true wholeness- deep healing IS available. It might be very supportive to seek like-minded people who also are putting energy into their own healing, learning and walking their talk- look for those who are embodying their whole humanness, warts and all. Let yourself be moved by other creative souls. You might experience that “healing” doesn’t have to be so serious all of the time.

This Full Moon eclipse in Virgo is highlighting that you have something to offer the community. What is it? Don’t be surprised if it’s outside your usual job description. Do you have something to teach or role model for others? Embody as a mentor for others to learn from? Over the next two weeks, it’s a good time to notice the contrast between how you are outside the home vs. who you are in private. You appear quite “on” intuitively and creatively while within the quiet of your own four domestic walls…how is your public activity informed by your intuition? Do you navigate with it enough publicly? Or, do you tend to get all earthly and bear the brunt of the responsibility when you have a “ job to do?” There’s something about who you are foundationally and in private that could really help inform your career, calling, or mission.

The next two weeks is a good time to work on finding some alignment and integration between your needs and the demands of your environment. With that in mind, what does a “pattern interrupt” look like at home- more self-care perhaps? An intentional shift in family dynamics? There is a better balance to be created between your home environment, your career environment, and most definitely your psychological-spiritual environment. Perhaps less compartmentalization and less defensive boundaries between who you are in each different area of your life? I think you can flow more directly and naturally being all the parts of yourself.

This Full Moon eclipse in Virgo is offering you a glimpse into what it would be like to get some relief from a certain drudgery. At a simple level, do you need a break from everything being a little too predictable or too relentless? You may benefit from creating a new inspiring vision now, taking an adventure, exploring a fresh path. This could be a mental voyage of letting a new understanding guide the formation of new beliefs, or it could be a literal trip you decide to take, an intentional exploration of places you’ve never visited before- whether inside or outsdie yourself, it looks like it’s time to take mind-opening adventure.

You’re being offered a chance to stretch yourself. Do you have the courage to trust a certain path that you intuitively sense but maybe haven’t mapped out with any kind of practicality yet? Do you have the faith (and discipline) to sit in silence, quiet your mind? Activities such as meditation, creativity, or walking contemplation will help you notice where you could really use some fresh inputs. It looks like you need some new creative ideas, new information. Allow the volume of your inner GPS to be turned up and guide you towards new horizons. You’re at the edge of a grand exploration.

This Full Moon eclipse in Virgo is trying to open up a new, spacious awareness inside your creative mind. Much of your genius comes from the irrational, imaginative, kooky dreamscape of your mind. You have the ability to imagine anything, and see it through until it materializes. Over the next two weeks, in order to help your imagination open up more, it might be helpful to see if you’re confusing “not changing” with stability? Are you clinging to some fixed ideas that you’ve outgrown, or perhaps they’ve overstayed their usefulness? Do you have the courage to switch from short-term fixes to long-term strategies?

As far as “brilliant strategies” go, I strongly suggest you start with good sleep, good food, and meditation as basic resources you have to claim as non-negotiable if you want a nervous system that can carry you the distance. After those necessary basics are met, do you have the courage to get out of your head? What would some regular meditation do for your creative mind? Find out. The next two weeks are offering you the opportunity to see overthinking as an armor you’re wearing. Wear the faith you’ve been cultivating as armor instead! Let the walls of your own analysis-paralysis crumble.

This Full Moon eclipse in Virgo is offering you the chance to liberate yourself from taking on other people’s moods. Other people’s moods have been causing too many ripples on the surface of your clear water-y seeing. You’re a porous, sensitive person, so good basic hygiene means paying attention to the difference between others’ feelings and your own. Discern where their feelings and thoughts stop and yours start. The next two weeks should offer you opportunities to sort this out and really see what’s yours and what’s theirs. This distinction will help you experience what your own soul-connected inspiration actually feels like. And then it’s like a feedback loop you’re strengthening– it’s easier to not take on other people’s moods, once you know what your own energy body feels like.

Maintaining a connection to yourself in the midst of chaos and change is a skill you’ll be refining this month. And that skill has a lot to do with honoring your intuition. So, do you have the courage to trust this intuition of yours? And do you have the courage to develop an ego identity that says “I follow my intuition like it’s an actual GPS.”

And that’s a wrap on this week’s report. If you liked this, please let me know. And you have no idea how much it means to me for you to share it. I spend a LOT of time writing all of this- it comes from my head and heart, not from AI. I’m also thinking about doing a mid-week newsletter that focuses more on wellness, microdosing, gut health… I have too much I want to share with you. 🌞

If you join the paid version of The Eleven, I would be completely thrilled. (I hope you understand that the New Moon horoscopes in two weeks will be paywalled, in an effort to make this newsletter a justifiable part of my work. And so will the events below. But at $11/month, I hope you think all of this is a bargain! 🩵)
