Libra Forecast for March 2010 (If you know your rising sign, read that too, for a balanced forecast. Go to Forecasts)
Push Ahead
A Full Moon in Virgo on Feb 28 will tire or test you with work or health concerns, as you roll into March. Where is the creative or spiritual practice to uplift you and what's missing from the picture? Mercury into Pisces on Mar 1 will bring the talk round to daily routines in work or health. You need new ideas, or a different line in thinking.
An unsettled climate gives way to a change, brought about through the presence of someone close coming in, as Venus slips into Aries on Mar 7. There'll be a lift in social or romantic life. March 8 will bring discussions that lead to opportunity or beneficial changes with work or health, but you will be wrestling over issues or concerns in close personal relationships. A resolution is needed to bring change. Mar 10 brings a bright note to proceedings, as Mars comes out of retrograde in Leo, slowly shifting the blockages or obstacles that have impeded relations with friends or groups, or left you stranded outside a cycle of activity. Push ahead with the new.
On Mar 15, a New Moon in Pisces brings a new start with daily routines, work or health. New associates will feature and there'll be much to discuss. It'll take a while for this to settle and you'll need to do some listening, or take in the views of others on Mar 17 as Mercury slips to Aries. Talk is serious and something hangs in the balance until properly decided.
The focus on others intensifies, as Mar 20 brings the Equinox and the Sun to Aries. It's a testing time and you'll need to be extra diplomatic and watch for accidents or high risks. The efforts of others will kick in to assist on Mar 22, somehow restoring equilibrium. The tension is high on Mar 26 and big decisions or discussions involving home life or people close will be in the frame. You'll be emotional or moody on Mar 30 as a Full Moon comes in your sign. Where to from here, and with whom? Simple, practical solutions and close ties should be the guiding light to lead you.
Little Things
With Mercury in Pisces from Mar 1, there'll be much discussion of the details and the little things in work or daily life. Get the practice or the business sorted by detailed negotiations and new agreements. Mar 8 brings helpful options or new possibilities. There'll be excess talk on Mar 15, then Mercury shifts to Aries on Mar 17, putting the focus of communication back on people close. Do some listening, as others will have something to say. It isn't just words either, as strong decisions or intense exchanges will be part and parcel of the deal. Mar 20 holds some natural vigour or fire, so make sure caution is your watchword.
Getting Close
Social relations through work or health will be the feature first up with Venus in Pisces, though there may be changes or unsettlement on Mar 3. The mood of things shifts strongly on Mar 7 as Venus moves to Aries, firing up your house of partnership with a strong social or romantic theme. You'll have an intense encounter that you'll have to negotiate or you will socialise through others or go through a sharp change in your personal life because of a new contact. Mar 8 until 11 brings an intense change of gears. Just at the final bell, Venus shifts into Taurus, focussing on finance and the obligations of shared money or resources.
Forward Motion
There will have been delays or obstacles in your dealings with friends or group activities since late Dec. The shackles cast then will loosen on Mar 10, as Mars moves forward once again in creative Leo. You can take action to get back on track, pushing projects ahead or enjoying shared activities with like-minded people. The pace will be slow at first but will soon pick up momentum, taking you back to the old arenas or into new dimensions. If there's been a particular interest or activity where the door has been closed, you'll find yourself able to return to the arena and get moving once again. A strong or energetic male will feature.
