One of the first 12+ movies that I saw in a movie theatre was Titanic, I think I had only seen Disney movies in the theatres up until then. Yesterday evening I saw a movie that was similar in some ways, and totally different in many other was. Titanic tells the story of two people from very different cultural backgrounds, or classes, falling in love while making a journey on a ship from Europe to the United States. The movie that I saw yesterday tells the story of two people from very different cultural backgrounds, or classes, falling in love while crossing Russia by train, from Moscow to Moermansk.
I prefer Hytti nro 6 over Titanic.

I actually wanted to see another movie, but it was completely sold out. “Rejection is divine protection” was true for me in this instance, because Hytti nro 6 is truly a beautiful archetypal expression of the Venus and Mars conjunction in Capricorn that is taking place at this moment. So, here I am, on a late Saturday evening, tired, but inspired to write about the story that I’ve witnessed just an hour ago. The type of love story that I love. Not a Disney fairytale. Not a blockbuster like Titanic. But a not at all ordinary story about two very ordinary people (and aren’t we all ordinary?).
Maybe it’s my natal Venus in Pisces that loves stories about complicated love. I’m never quite sure if Venus in Pisces loves someone in spite of their faults, or because of their faults.
I like Hytti nro 6 a lot. It’s a story of loving the underdog. It’s a story of seeing true colours. Of not falling for status, or the like, but falling for someone’s soul.
At the moment Venus is in Capricorn, together with Mars. And we see that beautifully expressed in the movie. The scenery of the movie is so incredibly Capricorn. It’s cold, not really comfortable. It’s a story of persistence. It’s a story with many layers. Capricorn is a sign of layers…
Venus in Capricorn, is all about dedication. Dedicating to love. Showing up. Putting in the effort. Venus in Capricorn knows that relationships require work. Mars in Capricorn is all about making the impossible possible. We see what may happen when these two meet, in this movie.
Two lovers meet in a train in Russia. Two people who seem to be the most unlikely to match.
Watching this movie I fell in love with this “simple” Russian man, as the lead actress does. And this man turns out to be not that simple.
I don’t know how to describe watching a movie that takes place in Russia with everything that’s going on at the moment. The people that follow me on Instagram know that I’ve been quite vocal about the war that Russia started against Ukraine; and that I’ve asked you to speak up against the war and donate money to the Red Cross or other foundations if you can spare the money. Make no mistake, I’m as anti Poetin as one can be. I’ve shed tears over the pain that has been caused and the pain that this dictator continues to cause. I’m furious.
And thus I sat down with mixed feelings in the movie theatre this evening, about to watch a movie that takes place in Russia. For my own entertainment.
Art crosses boundaries.
Love crosses boundaries.
That’s why Venus is exalted in Pisces.
Pisces lacks boundaries, thus the love can go everywhere.
Love needs to cross boundaries. Because, if it doesn’t… what’s left in this world?
I don’t want to live in a world where love is defined by boundaries.
I don’t want to live in a world where love is captured.
I don’t want to live in a world where boundaries between countries, cultures or the like dictate love.
I don’t want to live in a world where anything dictates love.
Where anything dictates anything…
And yet I do live in this type of world. That’s the harsh reality.
In my opinion the west needs to act as a united front with hard sanctions against Russia (and I’m happy to see that they are starting to set harder sanctions). I don’t know much about politics or warfare. I read the newspapers. But I’m an astrologer and not a politician…
And… I would like to ask you, again, as I did on Instagram, to support Ukraine in whatever way possible for you. You can donate to the Red Cross via this link: https://www.icrc.org/en/where-we-work/europe-central-asia/ukraine. For more information in how you can support Ukraine, please check this website: https://ukraine.ua/news/stand-with-ukraine/
Okay, to close off this long scattered writing… (Sorry, I’m writing this late in the evening, and I had a few glasses of wine.) Below follow links to trailers of the movie. Below also follows a quick summary of the current astrology, to introduce your affirmation horoscopes.

A quick summary of the current astrology:
The New Moon in Pisces occurs on March 2nd 6.34 pm CET / 12.34 pm ET. This New Moon is under the ruling of Jupiter, who’s co-present in Pisces together with Neptune. Keywords for this New Moon are: personal growth, compassion and healing. There’s also a quality of luck to it. Check out what house Pisces is on in your birth chart. Whatever seeds you plant regarding those house topics on the days surrounding this New Moon, may grow into something abundant, beautiful or healing in six months time.
Apart from the New Moon in Pisces, there’s stuff going on in the parts of your birth chart that contain Capricorn and Aquarius. In Aquarius Saturn and Mercury are doing some heavy work and reconstructing. In Capricorn there’s a meeting of Venus, Mars and Pluto. The Mercury – Saturn in Aquarius stuff is quite heavy. It may bring serious insights or communications. The Venus – Mars – Pluto stuff in Capricorn is quite intense, and may be about power and desires in relationships (or in connection to the house that Capricorn is on in your chart). So it honestly may feel like one part of your life is flowing with ease (Pisces), while another part of your life feels like work or requires focus and perseverance (Capricorn / Aquarius).
These horoscopes are valid for the week leading up to and the week after the New Moon in Pisces that occurs on March 2nd 6.34 pm CET / 12.34 pm ET.
The horoscopes are written in affirmation style.
The horoscopes are written for your rising sign and Sun sign. If you don’t know your rising sign, follow the instructions on this page to figure it out or book a consultation with me.
The horoscopes are listed from Aries – Pisces.
Aries Sun & Aries Rising
Whatever challenges I’m faced with, I trust that I can handle them. I’m ready for bold career moves. I’m ready to put myself out there. I’m ready to invest my love, passion and courage into the projects that are dear to me. I’m ready to show the world my capabilities.
Sometimes we need to fake it until we make it.
The imposter syndrome is a real thing…
When I’m alone I might not feel as confident as I act out there in the world. And I acknowledge to myself that that’s totally okay! I don’t need to always feel confident, in order to move forward. I don’t always need to put on a brave face. I know when to act, when to fake it till I make it, and when not.
I show up with confidence in the office and out on the streets. I acknowledge the existence of my insecurities at home, in the therapist’s office, on the meditation cushion. I seek out the safe places and the safe people; where it’s safe to remove the mask.
I don’t judge myself for my fears, doubts and worries. I accept me for who I am. And I’m working on myself.
No more self-undoing. Wherever in life I sabotage my dreams and desires (whether in love, work, creativity or else) because I don’t feel good enough, because I don’t feel worthy… Done with that shit. I am good enough! I am worthy! I’m not perfect and I don’t need to be. I’m loving myself for who I am.
With this New Moon in Pisces I’m becoming my own best friend. I’m not going to stand in my own way anymore. I allow myself to feel vulnerable while I make it without faking it. I don’t need to fake anything, even though it sometimes feels like that, because I’m starting to believe that I’m capable of anything. I’m not talking myself down anymore. I’m talking myself up. I allow myself to not let my fears hold me back, but to let my dreams and desires guide me. I allow myself to go after and receive the love and abundance that is awaiting me.
Let’s put an end to the imposter syndrome. Because I’m the real deal and I’m deserving of love, success and abundance.
Taurus Sun & Taurus Rising
With this New Moon in Pisces I fully commit to my dreams. I have the stamina, the staying power and the ambition to make them come true. I dedicate myself to myself, to my dreams, to my future. I dare to travel into the unknown, to go to foreign places. I dare to go into the darkness. I dare to leave places of comfort and to go into discomfort.
If I want that holy grail, I’ll need to make the ‘Hero’s Journey’.
My dreams are valid. My hopes are guiding me. I’m allowed to go after them. I empower myself on this journey. And I dare to go at it alone.
Even though I’m not alone.
I dedicate myself to my people, to my friends, to my community. The knowledge that I gain on my pilgrimages, the treasures that I find; I will share them with humankind. I offer my wealth to the world. I don’t believe in scarcity. Abundance grows when it’s shared.
I commit to myself and I commit to my people (the students that I’m teaching / the groups that I belong to / the audiences that I serve). And as I take the first steps into the unknown alone, I know that I’ll find support. As I commit to others, others will commit to me. As I share my blessings, others will return the favour.
Gemini Sun & Gemini Rising
As my collaborations and partnerships undergo a process of transformation, I’m ready to plant new seeds when it comes to my career.
I’m showing up for it; for everything.
I’m showing up for the mess and ugliness in my partnerships. I’m showing up for myself as I stare my fears and my discomfort in the face, as I’m ready to fight my demons. I’m showing up for commitment issues and all that stuff. Let’s put to death what isn’t working. Let’s bring to life what will work.
The darkness becomes less dark as I bring in some light. Intimacy is less of a scary thing as I actually begin to share. Partnership is less troublesome, when I make it less of a fight.
While I’m changing my perspective on what it means to be intimate. While I’m gaining a whole new experience of what it means to share… I’m also showing up for growth and new potential in my career. I’m working on my future. I’m ready for something new. I’m ready to climb that so called ladder.
I’m ready for more abundance. I allow myself to receive. I take my chances on the possibilities that show up.
‘Dream big or go home’ they say. I’m here to dream big. And I commit to that dream.
Cancer Sun & Cancer Rising
As I’ve said goodbye to certain future plans and dreams in the past, I’ve become more aware of my true desires. I’ve become aware of what’s truly meaningful to me. I know what is valuable to me. Space has opened up for new future plans. I’m dreaming new dreams. I’m painting new blueprints. I’m buying new plane tickets into the future. I’m buying new books to read, in order to dream about foreign worlds. I’m signing up for new studies. I’m ready for new adventures. I’m ready to learn new things. I’m ready for new journeys. Let’s bring it on.
The road ahead may not be clear yet. But I’m setting my intentions. I’m saying my wishes out loud. The universe will hear them. I will commit to them. I’m open for the possibilities that the universe brings to me. I’m planting new seeds for my future. I will patiently wait and see how they sprout. I know that good things are coming.
I will not let others hold me back from pursuing my dreams. My commitments either grow with me; but I will not die with them. I will not allow others to hold me back. I realize that I’m not bound by contracts ‘to death do us part’ (in love or business). I’m bound by ethics; I will do right by people, but I don’t need to keep myself stuck in dynamics that aren’t working.
I fully commit to the relationships and the people that are willing to transform and grow with me. I fully commit to those that dare to step into the unknown with me. I’m here to be part of a power couple and nothing less. I deserve someone by my side that knows my worth and that is ready to face life with me.
Leo Sun & Leo Rising
I’m dedicated to my work. I’m dedicated to those that rely on me. I show up for the power struggles in the office, in the bureaucracy, in the systems that I’m bound to. I know which fight to pick with my employer / employees, and which one isn’t worth it. I acknowledge where I’ve given power away. I know how to take my power back. I show up with passion and invest in the projects that mean everything to me. I show up with confidence and power, even when I’m scared to death. I’m ready to transform the office bureaucracies that are stuck. I’m ready to put to death what isn’t working; I’m ready to bring back to life what has been dead for too long.
I may feel empowered when others lean on me, but I also know that my strong back doesn’t need to carry everyone’s burden (because it’s not always my burden to carry).
I’m ready to invest in the collaborations that promise growth, abundance and success. I’m open to new and potential collaborations that may prove to be valuable for both me and others. I’m ready to learn and to invest. I’m ready to plunge into the deep if necessary. I trust that things will turn out alright. It’s like that tarot card ‘The Fool’. I’m ready for ‘The Fool’s Journey’.
I acknowledge that the office is not the only place that relies on my courage. My most intimate relationships do too. I may need to step into my power at work, and also in my most intimate relationships. Sometimes stepping into power, means giving it away; when it comes to our most intimate connections at least. Relinquishing power is needed for true intimacy. I dare to take a leap of faith, when it comes to sharing my deepest love and my deepest fears. I trust that my vulnerability will be handled with care. (And in case I can’t have that trust, in case I’m not safe, I know that I should and can leave.)
Virgo Sun & Virgo Rising
With this New Moon I vow to invest in the relationships and commitments that promise personal growth, shared abundance and reciprocated love. I acknowledge the potential for wisdom and wealth in the connections that I share with my most beloved friends / business partners / clients / students. I invest in the relationships that I have with the people that I feel committed to, and those that show up with commitment to me.
From the Ace of Cups to the Ten of Cups (a tarot analogy). The Ace of Cups is the potential of emotional fulfilment. The Ace of Cups is that first seed of love, that begins to sprout. With nourishment and with care, the story may end at the Ten of Cups: pure emotional fulfilment, that happy ending of a fairy tale.
Meanwhile I deal with my creative frustrations. Creativity isn’t always a process of flow, sometimes it’s a fight. I’m ready to struggle in order to create. I’m ready to uncover my passions and creative desires.
I’m transforming my relationship to beauty, value, art, romance and pleasure. And as I do so, I’m being transformed myself.
I’m surrendering to the transformative processes that are taking place in my romantic life. Love, beauty and pleasure aren’t definite. They aren’t fixed. Their meanings change. I decide what’s beautiful. I decide what’s pleasurable. I decide what and who I love.
Libra Sun & Libra Rising
I’m ready to start a new chapter at work. I’m ready for a new project. I’m ready to take on labor. I’m ready for growth in my business. As I’m willing to show up early at the office, I’m investing in my health care routines in order to be able to handle the workload. I’m allowed enough sleep. I make sure I take the needed rest. I make sure to get that apple a day. Taking care of myself in order to take care of business.
While I’m ready for all the abundance at work. As I’m preparing for that new chapter. As I’m planting seeds for future growth… I’m also strengthening my roots.
My relationship with my past is transforming, in a powerful and profound way. The earth runs deep, the soil is dark, and I’m not afraid to work that soil. I work it, so it may not become stuck and so it may not weigh me down. I know that the dark soil is nourishing too. As I’m transforming the relationships that I have with my past, my family, my ancestry, I’m becoming more empowered. Whatever confrontations I may encounter in the processes. Whatever family secrets I may dig up from the graves. Whatever traumas I may revisit. I know that I can handle it. I know that I can heal it. I know that I will come out stronger in the process. If there are any generational curses, I’m breaking them now.
With this New Moon I’m liberating myself from the past and I’m planting seeds for future growth and healing.
Scorpio Sun & Scorpio Rising
With this New Moon I carve out time for my joy and pleasure. I mark that X in the calendar and I will dedicate it to something that brings me joy. Whether it’s visiting a museum, taking a long bath, creating a new piece of art, having sex with my partner or myself, going to a concert, taking my kid out for ice cream. Whatever it is that makes the creative, sexual and joyful juices flow… I’m signing up for it.
And with that, I promise myself to not just carve out time for my hobbies with this New Moon. I will do so on a regular basis. Whatever brings me joy in life. Whatever makes me high on love. I acknowledge that it is vital.
My life purpose isn’t paying the rent. My life purpose isn’t sending x amount of emails. My life purpose is to a actually live life. It is to breathe, to really breathe. To enjoy the oxygen in the air, not just use it. My life purpose is not just to birth children and make sure the human race doesn’t go extinct. My life purpose to actually enjoy creating them and to enjoy having them.
I allow myself to slow down enough, to be able to feel, taste, see, hear, experience the good stuff in life.
Love is the most important thing in life.
Joy is a vital thing in life. We can’t go without.
And while I mark that X in the calendar (that private time) I acknowledge that there are responsibilities that I can ignore on X time but that I cannot always ignore. Whatever bombs may blow up in my email inbox, whatever passionate or angry messages I may receive that require my attention, whatever frustrated sibling may call me, whatever approaching exams may stress me out, whatever travel delays to work I may face, or whatever other stressful shit I may encounter… I will cope with it, and I will deal with it, if needed acute and otherwise in designated time.
Sagittarius Sun & Sagittarius Rising
Personal growth is an enduring process. Life continues to gift me lessons, and I sign up for them. No matter how challenging or big the lessons seem, I will learn and I will pass the exam. Healing is not a linear process, it always comes with ups and downs. I’m uncovering so much inner wisdom lately, and I will continue to uncover more. I trust the process. I trust myself and my ability to learn and to grow.
With this New Moon I’m conscious of the Earth that gives home to me. With this New Moon I’m thankful for the Earth that gives home to me. I’m thankful for the places that offer me safety. I’m healing the relationship that I have with my past / my family. I nourish the ground that gives stability to my feet. And as I do so, I empower myself.
My past may have shaped me, but it doesn’t dictate my future. My genetics may be a given, but my identity is isn’t fixed.
With this New Moon I’m planting new seeds regarding my home life / my family life / my psyche and soul. I’m ready to do the ancestral healing in order to create a brighter future. I’m ready to place the first bricks for my future house. Let’s continue the renovation.
All that I carry within me, the good and the bad, the light and the dark, the beauty and the ugly, I acknowledge it all. I’m here for myself. I acknowledge that I’m perfect as I am, and that I still need to work on myself. I acknowledge that I’m perfect as I am, and that I’m a work in progress. I acknowledge my worth.
Capricorn Sun & Capricorn Rising
I’ve gone into the depths of me. I’ve faced myself. I’ve done the work. I’ve looked into the mirror. I don’t shy away anymore, not from my darkest parts and not from yours. You’re welcome to bring your ugliness to me.
However… if you want to be with me, you’ll need to do the same. You’ll need to do the work too.
I’m embracing myself. I’m loving myself for who I am and for everything in me. I’m embracing my beauty. I’m feeling the love within me, the love that is me, and I’m ready to pour it out of me into the world.
I’m acknowledging my fears, my angers, my darkest shit. It’s not an excuse for the times I’ve messed up, I’m taking responsibility for that. I’m saying: I’m embracing who I am and I’m working on improving myself. And I expect the same from you.
I’m stepping into my power and I know my worth.
I dare to speak my heart. I dare to share my heart with those around me. Love is not just flowing in me. It wants to come out of me. I’m exchanging love letters with my friends. I’m here for open and honest communication. I know that investing in the connections that are dear to me, will make those connections stronger. It’s a mutual effort, I can’t do it alone. I discern wisely who I send my love letters. But I’m ready to start something over, I’m ready to start something new.
I’m pouring my love and energy into my love letters, into my poems, whatever writing projects I have going on. I’m pouring it into my studies. I’m eager to learn that new language, figure how to make a clay pot on a wheel, get that yoga pose into my system, get a straight A for that psychology exam. I’m eager to learn and I know that my investments and hard work will pay off.
Aquarius Sun & Aquarius Rising
As an Aquarius I’m known to do my own thing. I don’t live my life by other people’s opinions. I go my own way. Even though I may care what others think of me, even though I’m not made of stone, even though I want to be liked, loved and accepted as everyone else does… I will not abandon my authenticity in order to be accepted by society.
I may be unique and different, but that doesn’t mean I’ve never wondered about or felt bothered by other people’s opinions. And that’s okay. It’s okay to think about these things. And I also say to myself that it’s okay to let these worries go. Because I’m an Aquarius. Fighting against my uniqueness will be the death of me. So, I embrace it. In my core I’ve always known that I need to go about things in my own way.
With this New Moon I’m saying goodbye to limiting self beliefs. I’m saying goodbye to self undoing behavior. I welcome abundance. I welcome self worth. I affirm myself.
I may be a humanitarian, but with this New Moon I love myself first. I place myself first. I celebrate my gifts. I celebrate my knowledge. I celebrate my uniqueness. I acknowledge my worth. The love that I have to offer. The gifts that I have to share.
No more talking myself down. No more holding myself back. The world has no choice but to accept me for who I am. As I accept me for who I am, with all my faults and all my weirdness and with all my gifts and all my beauty. I love myself for who I am.
Pisces Sun & Pisces Rising
Here I am. Ready to receive the abundance that awaits me. Thankful for the abundance that’s already present.
Here I am. Ready to grow. I’m investing in myself. I’m putting in the work, not shying away from it, in order to grow as a person. I’m levelling up.
With this New Moon I set my intentions. I know that if I show up for it, the universe will respond. I know that if I put myself out there, the world will receive me. Growth doesn’t happen in one day. Growth is a process of a lifetime. Thus, I’m committing to it. I commit to myself and my process of growth (with both the growing pains and the successes). I commit to myself, again and again.
I’m manifesting the abundance that I desire.
I won’t shy away from the struggles I encounter in the process.
Committing to myself doesn’t mean that I can’t commit to others. I acknowledge that people rely on me, but I don’t need to prioritize them over me. The people that have my back, the people that I can count on, they will understand. They will understand that sometimes I’m there, swimming in our shared ocean. But sometimes this Pisces needs to retreat and focus on themselves, swim in their own little pond. Whatever power struggles I may encounter with others, I can discern what’s worth the fight and what’s worth the peace offering.
I know my values. I live by my values. I intend to do right by people. I expect others to do right by me too.
Here I am. Honest, truthful, ready to grow, ready to receive, ready to invest and to commit to everything that’s worth it.
Here I am.
I’m love.
