Happy new week for everyone.
My name is Miriam Ashkenazi and I'm a Kabbalistic astrologer at the Kabbalah Center.
I'm excited to share with you the insight into the week of March 8th until March 13.
This is based on the wisdom of Kabbalistic astrology incorporating both wisdoms,
Kabbalah and astrology,
Helping us to see how to utilize the cosmic influences to best support us with our spiritual journey.
I would actually like to start with the Kabbalistic secret.
One of the Kabbalistic secrets that the Kabbalists are sharing with us for this week's energy,
This week biblical portion,
Which this year happened to be Vayakhel Picu Day.
It's a combination of both portions that happen to split up when it's a leap year,
But on most years they're being read together at the end of the week.
But the energy is available for us throughout the week.
So what is the secret here?
This portion there is actually a repetition of a story that was read a few weeks ago.
This is the story of the building of the tabernacle,
All the details,
What to bring,
What to include,
What not to include.
If you look at it from a literal perspective,
It could be very boring.
But why to repeat?
One of the reasons that there is a repetition,
It says the Kabbalists are teaching us that in the first reading in the portion of Torah a few weeks ago,
It was all the Israelites involved in the building of the tabernacle,
But also including what was called the Erev Rav,
Which translated into the mixed multitudes.
So who are the mixed multitudes?
The mixed multitudes is a group of people that were part of the Israelites in their journey in the desert.
And when they came to the point of the revelation of the Torah,
The revelation of the Bible in Mount Sinai,
They did not have patience for Moses to come down from the mountain.
And what happened,
They were the ones initiating the building of the golden calf.
Now,
What do they represent?
What can we learn from this story in our life today?
Because we're not just talking about people or a nation,
We're talking about energy.
And the energy of the mixed multitudes,
It's energy that exists in all of us.
And in this portion,
As I said,
It's different from the portion a few weeks ago in the idea that they were not part of the building of the tabernacle.
What do they represent?
What they represent is the energy that we have within us that sometimes we cannot wait.
It's not about external forces again of evil people.
It's a force within us that cannot wait,
Can't wait and want to get an instant gratification,
Can't wait to get things in our own timing,
In our own way.
This is actually a force that strongly pushes us with a lot of personal agenda.
And what we get in this week,
Parashah,
In this week energy,
We get the ability and the power to overcome that force within us that cannot wait.
That force that tells us that the most important thing is how things evolving according to our timing,
According to our own agenda.
So let's see how the cosmic influences of this week actually help us to connect to this idea.
There are a lot of things that happening.
Most of the things are very positive,
Very supportive.
So let's see how we can connect to them.
First of all,
The moon is making a lot of conjunctions this week.
Conjunctions mean very close to many of the planets through the journey of the week,
The moon moving generally very quickly.
And there's going to be a conjunction with Pluto and Capricorn throughout the week.
Later on,
Moving into the planets in Aquarius,
Saturn,
Jupiter,
Mercury,
And then to Neptune and the sun in Pisces.
This is because the moon is about our emotion,
About our internal world.
It's a big time for emotional awakening and breakthroughs.
There is a lot of potential for grounding as well.
This is very important and powerful support that we get specifically in the month of Pisces that sometimes emotions can run very deep and unclear and a little bit blurry or living more on the illusionary reality.
When the moon is making all these connections,
We have a great opportunity to understand what we feel,
To flow with our emotions and to really work with our emotions to our best interest.
Another thing that's happening this week,
Which is also very supportive and also connecting to the idea of this weak energy,
Is that the sun and Venus are conjuncting with Neptune.
They both in the sign of Pisces and they're meeting with Neptune.
The sun will do it on Wednesday and then on Saturday,
Venus.
This is a very artistic and romantic vibe,
Very creative,
Very harmonious.
And also it's leading us to Saturday,
Which is the beginning of the new moon,
Very idealistic new moon.
It's a great time of communication.
It's a great time for teamwork and connections.
And this is,
Again,
Connecting to the idea that we want to be part of the group.
We want to be more tuned to the universe.
We want to be more tuned to others,
Not work only on our own with our own personal agenda.
Think that you want to be part of something bigger.
This is all those cosmic influences are also helping us to awaken more patience and tolerance,
Which was missing in the building of the tabernacle a few weeks ago.
But in this week,
Pasha,
We have the ability to connect to this energy.
There is one thing we want to pay attention to,
And this is on Thursday.
There is a lunar square.
It's a challenging aspect with Mars that just recently entered into Gemini.
This can be a little bit depleting energy and we want to pay attention for that.
Maybe it's a day where we can feel a little unmotivated or down,
But we don't want to let this momentary illusion to take over.
We want to pay attention that it's really momentary.
So pay attention to that.
Mostly throughout the week,
We get great support from the universe and from the planets.
So overall,
It can be potentially a very mellow and comforting week.
It's a time to slow down and to take advantage of these supportive aspects to help us get out of our personal agenda and be more tuned to the cosmic,
To the secrets that the Kabbalists are sharing with us that are so special about this week specifically.
I would like to wish you all a beautiful,
Powerful and transformative week.
Thank you.
