astrocasting 📽️ thelma & louise
TLDR | Gen X's definition of ride or die returns.
Venus Aries and South Node Virgo are an elementally odd couple of wingwomen who make perfect sense in our cultural moment. On March 14th, eclipse season arrives via Mutable Earth… just in time for Venus’ retrograde of Aries’ Cardinal Fire. A cinematic reframe of Paul Newman and Robert Redford’s classic outlaw BFFs, “Thelma & Louise,” exemplifies the volume and theme of this transit to a T.
The trajectory of the dual protagonists played by Susan Sarandon and Geena Davis, a chirpy waitress and a docile housewife gone vigilante, mirrors the collective energy in this moment: from good girl to bad bitch real quick.
In the two week window between eclipses, expect the Dark Feminine to drop an exclamation point mid-convo that drives the impact of Aries’ final eclipse at the end of March.
Like the third rail ending of “Thelma & Louise,” we let go of perfectionist scripts that paradoxically keep our system in dis-regulation, we unshame our shadow selves and launch into the light of inception. It is the incendiary choice point — ENOUGH! — reached after enduring unsustainable toil toward an end that never served since the start.
Callie Khoury’s Oscar-winning script embodies the word “triggered” like no TikTok influencer can.
This flavor very much marks a detour from Venus’ last retrograde in Fixed Fire (Leo) during the Summer of 2023, when “Barbie” presented a more palatable - and pink - version of patriarchal pain. (Not that Brad Pitt, and Ryan Gosling, don’t make the medicine go down.)
In Spring 1991, when “Thelma & Louise” premiered at Cannes, the Big Sky Story was a Mars/Chiron/Venus Cancer stellium opposing Uranus conjunct Neptune Capricorn - gender wounds shattering institutional projections. Spring 2025 picks up this plot thread and wonders what to weave next after heteronormativity unravels.
Remedy? Practice patience with process. Lean into Mutable Earth’s surrendering embrace of Cardinal Fire. Rake through the embers of what is no longer. Discover the spark in the ashes of loss. Reignite what will take us higher, mindful that all transpersonal and outer planets shift into new signs throughout 2025.
