Welcome to Your March Horoscope Overview!
Wow! We’ve got one pretty big month ahead. The month kicks off with Mercury, the God of communication and messages, moving retrograde through the deep mystical waters of Pisces. This will be starting on the 6th and continues until March 28th, when Mercury then goes direct. This particular retrograde can give us snippets of the future while bringing up situations or people from the past. It is apt to be more emotional, and confusing than most. There is a silver lining; to be better spiritually connected and trust your intuition. As with most retrogrades, you want to be extra careful with signing contracts, leases, and agreements. Moving, purchasing cars or making other major life changes should also be done with caution. Mercury retrograde can be a time where we are less likely to read the fine print or get the facts and details necessary. Often times if we aren’t aware, we will overlook minor mishaps that lead to bigger issues down the road.
Remember: Revisit, Review, Revise, Renew, Reimagine!
This particular Retrograde is linking up with Neptune and the Sun in Pisces. This makes for a very spiritual, and otherworldly month ahead. Not all is what it may seem this month. Be careful what you read or hear, and whose advice you buy. Neptune represents ecstasy or agony. It’s important to identify which side of that you’d like to be on. Some may be feeling much more emotional than usual, while others may spiral a bit out of control mentally. Take caution with any substances or interactions with water. The light side of this energy is we are all apt to tap into our inner intuitive voice. The key is knowing when to step away, quiet the mind and tune in. This month Mercury and Neptune will deliver psychic insights through dreams, visions or meditations. This can also be an excellent time to check in with a psychic advisor, get a reading, attend a sound bowl meditation, or try hypnosis!
The New Moon lands on the 6th, asking us to examine what type of world can we imagine for ourselves. Many will find they need some time alone in isolation, or perhaps for some more sleep! Take note of what is and isn’t your emotional baggage. Focus on spiritual work, creative projects, and forgiveness. Musicians, photographers and artists alike will all really benefit the most from this dreamy energy. Just don’t hit snooze too many times, or forget to push your clocks forward! On March 10th around 2:00 am, we move into Daylight savings!
March 7th Uranus the planet of innovation finally moves back into Taurus and leaves the sign of Aries once and for all. We now start the seven years of total transformation of our earthly values. Expect a major jolt similar to that of what took place in May and October of 2018. Dramatic changes happen when major planets change signs. Many of us will seek new innovative ways to make, budget, and exchange our finances. Innovations in art, fashion and currency are all expected in the coming years.
The Full Moon on March 20th sends us zooming into Spring! The balance of the Sun in Aries and the Moon in Libra is the Spring Equinox. This is the time we take a good look at our core self-responsibilities and how we work with partners. It’s a lot of “ YOU and I” energy. Make sure to tune in and be a solid reflection of what you want from others. Being that it is a 0 degree Moon, it’s the third of several New Moons at this degree, representing both a beginning and an end. It’s likely anything that felt sluggish or heavy early in March shifts away towards the end of the month. For many, this may be some type of resolution or conclusions in a relationship to something. This is also supported by Mercury going direct on the 28th of the month. Expect to feel the full effects of this next month in April.
