Balancing Between Eclipses | Energy & Astrology Update | Magical Michelle Orwick

The cosmic energies are intensifying as we find ourselves caught between two powerful eclipses, with the Spring Equinox creating a magical portal of possibility right in the middle. Are you feeling the intensity? That's the universe nudging you toward recalibration and renewal.

With both Venus and Mercury in retrograde simultaneously, the universe is calling for a sacred pause. Rather than pushing forward, this is your cosmic invitation to review, reflect, and realign. Journal, meditate, engage in spring cleaning – these practices will help you shed what no longer serves your highest path. Though it might feel like moving through quicksand, this slowdown serves a crucial purpose in preparing you for what's next.

The Spring Equinox marks the perfect balance of light and dark before we enter six months where light dominates. As we transition from emotional Pisces to fiery Aries, you'll finally feel momentum building. This astrological new year brings the courage to stand in your power, especially if you've been playing small. The upcoming solar eclipse on the 29th amplifies this energy, making it the optimal launching point for your deepest intentions. Between now and then, focus on finding balance – between masculine and feminine energies, between your past and future self, between who you've been and who you're becoming. What seeds are you planting that will flourish in the light-filled months ahead? The time for transformation is now, and I'm here to support your journey with breakthrough sessions, coaching, and spiritual gatherings to harness this potent energy. Will you answer the call to step into your most authentic expression?

Welcome to Living Magically for the week of March 17th, and I am your host, magical Michelle, and I want to just encourage you to lean in this week to finding your balance. I know that you're possibly feeling this intensity from the lunar eclipse and we've got a solar eclipse coming, so there's this in between, so there might be a little bit of a full moon hangover. We're in the very last days of Pisces and so as we finish this energy, I realized that that can be very unsettling and that a lot of emotions can be on the surface and a lot can be be boiling under underneath. So recalibrate, realign and renew. We're now in a position where we have Venus retrograde and Mercury retrograde at the same time and we're getting ready for the spring equinox. Now that is a wonderful thing in and of itself. However, I know getting there is just a little bit on the rocky water side. So lean into the fact that this is a time to take pause, and when you're taking pause, it's a really good time to take a review. It's a really good time to sit and journal, meditate, clean up. It's a great time to do a little spring cleaning. You might feel after that Virgo full moon like a purge has to happen and your energy might be sat. So get a lot of sleep because we are about to emerge into high growth season. Now. It's not going to feel super, super fast, super super, you know perfect right away, but it encourages you to find your balance.

We're going to move from Pisces into Aries on the 20th and with that, from Pisces into Aries on the 20th, and with that we're going to move from that water which a lot of us have been feeling like. Oh my goodness, you know, there's the water, the watery energy just feels like so much emotion and we're finally going to get, feel like we're going to get some momentum as we move into Aries season and that momentum is going to feel like a fresh start and some momentum as we move into Aries season and that momentum is going to feel like a fresh start and maybe even for some of you like we're actually beginning the year because we have this beginning of Aries. That's actually the astrological new year. So so we get to go and for the northern hemispheres, we've now moved into a place where we will be where the sun is longer every day than the darkness, six months of it being a brighter, fuller season of light, and the seeds are pretty much getting planted, or they have been, and so now it's time to water what you're planting, finish your planting and move forward. That's gonna be happening now, finally and I don't know about any of you, but it's like finally. So, as we do this, think about this, as how do I need to get my equilibrium back? It's the day of balance. That's where the night and the day are exactly the same length, and then, from that point forward, every day, the sun will grow to midsummer. Now we're still in between these two eclipses, so it might feel like you're moving through quicksand. It isn't necessarily that big starter time, but more of a finishing, completing, reviewing. With the. We talked about last week the Venus retrograde and this now we're in Mercury retrograde. So leave a little early. Double check your downloads, double check your plans and itineraries, double check and review. Send before you send something. Make sure that you're writing everything down and you're reading everything before you write it and, if at all possible, wait until next month to sign any major contracts or make any long term agreements you can't get out of, but it's a good time to be thinking about what those are. And here we have Aries coming in, and Aries is finally a fire sign. It's our first season of fire this year. Now that could feel a little more aggressive. We could feel like it's time to stand up for ourselves. It could mean that we're no longer tolerating things, so there's a no tolerating zone coming in with this energy.

The spring equinox, for me, is one of my favorite timeframes. Ostara is the goddess of fertility and it's a time where we're in a renewal and a rebirth and a regeneration, and I do feel this year is that's exactly what is coming in for us. What is the new you're creating? What is the new you're allowing? What is the manifestation that is getting clear? I do think we're finally going to have some clarity this month. Coming into the end of March and into April. We're going to see what it is we're creating. We're going to see what it is and where we're moving and what is this high growth season all about. We are leading up to that solar eclipse on the 29th and if that is the case for you and you're like I don't know what to do, that would be the time to launch something. That it would be. I would wait to really start doing new, new stuff until the 29th.

Magical Michelle Orwick: 7:00

This is still that time of renewal, that rebirth stage. We are in the rebirth stage and that might mean we're tender, like little babies. Our feelings could be hurt. Aries is the first sign of the zodiac. It's the baby or the toddler, and so let's be gentle, let's work with our inner child, let's be nice to ourselves, and we might find ourselves feeling very selfish and wanting to go into deep care. It is absolutely time for you. If you have been in any way, shape or form, playing small, playing out of the field which you are choosing to play in, it is now time to step in. It is now time to go the right direction. It is now time to follow your dreams.

Magical Michelle Orwick: 8:06

As we're leaving Pisces season and into Aries season, this equinox is about that expression of your power, that expression of your truth, that expression of who am I and where do I want to be, where do I want to go, what do I want to create, and I love that. It is a beautiful, beautiful season and those of you who are celebrating Ramadan, I know we're still fasting and taking review and gratitude, so it is a time of regeneration, giving those who are in Lent. There's also that period of fasting and giving something up. I think anybody right now could be giving up something that is not healthy for us, anything that is no longer serving us. This is a good time to let it go. That is no longer serving us. This is a good time to let it go, get out of bad habits and align. Align with the truth of the version of you that is your soul, self, your highest self, your best expression of yourself, and that is what is being called forward here and I love it.

Magical Michelle Orwick: 9:24

And, if you would like some help with that, if you feel like this is your time, I have opened up for the first time in 2025, a couple of VIP days and we've had some huge breakthroughs in a VIP day. So I have two breakthrough session VIP days available right now. That will go fast. These are my favorite thing to do of all. Every time I do one, they are bespoke to you. They're a custom package, exactly what you need, either here in Orlando, florida, or on Zoom.

Magical Michelle Orwick: 10:02

If you live close enough, you can come to me and we can spend the day together. If you are far away and not able to travel, we can absolutely have just as magical of an expression and change from being on a video call. So let me know. Like I said, we'll have a little conversation, pick out what it is your transformation is, and it will be really, really powerful to do it at this time. So let me know if that's something you're thinking of. I have two available and I also have one spot for 90 days of coaching available, and I also have one spot for 90 days of coaching available. So if one of those feels right for you, reach out, we will play, we will transform and we will make some magic. And for the rest of you, I am going to be doing an oil temple and a compassion circle in the week of next week and a compassion circle in the week of next week. The 25th is the compassion circle and the 29th is the new moon, solar eclipse, oil anointing at Center Street with Patrick. So we have one coming up at the Urban Ashram and one at Center Street. So there's a lot of opportunity to work with us, to play with us and to grow with us.

Magical Michelle Orwick: 11:24

And in the meantime, I just ask you to really spend some time evaluating. We have Mercury in retrograde until the 7th, we have Venus in retrograde till mid-April and we have the upcoming eclipse. So this time frame in between this liminal, in between between the lunar eclipse and the solar eclipse, has this portal of the spring equinox and that is to find your balance, to find your center, to find your middle ground, to balance your chakras, to balance your masculine and feminine and to plant the seeds of growth for the next six months. And I find it interesting because we will be having a lunar I'm sorry, we will be having a solar, no, a lunar eclipse on the fall equinox. So it's like we're in this window of eclipses and then at the next equinox we will be having another eclipse right at the equinox. So it's really really potent, really powerful time and I think you can do a lot with this six month period.

Magical Michelle Orwick: 12:36

So if you think of what can I do in six months that's always my thought for high growth season what is possible while the light is in its fullness? What is possible while I have more daylight than dark? What is my outward expression of my truth and what am I going to make into my reality? What am I going to create, what am I going to embody and how am I going to do that in a way that's balanced, kind, loving and full of self-expression. So I wish you a lot of love, I wish you a lot of magic and I will see you again next week. Live magically.
