A New Momentum
The Full Moon in Virgo on Feb 28 sweeps you into March, lighting up lifestyle, romantic life or creative projects, in contrast with friends or groups and your involvements there, revealing the balance between them and indicating what's next. Work or health issues will feature, as will a child or lover. It's a new momentum as Mercury slips to Pisces on Mar 1. Social contacts will make talk or ideas and, with the Sun in sign of the Fishes, your place in the community or the social scene is in focus. There'll be a fizz of emotional or fiscal stuff, with rapid or unexpected responses on Mar 3.
Draw the horns in on Mar 7 as Venus slips into Aries, for it's all too easy to spend what you can't afford, or buy what you don't need. Don't get racy or untoward with the 'love' business either. There will be an occasion, a celebration or teachings on Mar 8, but you'll have to be circumspect with money or friends. You will be late, constrained, or someone crucial will be absent.
If you've been trying to renovate the kitchen or cool a hot temper since before Xmas, it's all on after Mar 10 as Mars moves forward after a lengthy reverse in Leo. Whatever's been a domestic bugbear or familial fly in the ointment will at last get a dose from the cosmic spray can. Move mountains, move the furniture, or move out the grumpy male. Love or money will mark the word 'drama' on the program on Mar 11. Observe, but don't write a part for yourself.
Discussion or meetings will lead to a fresh start with friends or groups at the New Moon on Mar 15. Unexpected events or responses will have your head going in circles as Mercury hits Aries on Mar 17. Be thoughtful. Others will oppose or suggest alternatives.
Step to the lower deck, as Mar 20 brings the Equinox and the Sun to Aries. Work behind the scenes, focus on creative or spiritual matters and watch for hidden influences. The mood's intense or argumentative and strong decisions are needed. Associates in work or health will assist on Mar 22. Stress levels are high so take the challenge of authority on Mar 26. People or situations connected with daily routines will bring emotion or excitement as the Full Moon comes in Libra on Mar 30. Travel or communications will flourish on Mar 31.
Turning Inward
Mercury moving at speed hits Pisces on day one, bringing talk and interchanges with friends or groups. A new spring in your step will peak on Mar 8, when opportunity or fortunate contacts will feature. Education or teachers will be in the frame. Hold your own on Mar 15, as you'll have something to say. You're going to have to think or talk your way through things with Mercury in Aries from Mar 17, opposing Saturn the next day then squaring Pluto on Mar 20. It's testing or testy, and grasping the arguments of others will be as important as holding your own. Negotiate difficulties, watch for accidents and look for the mental shift of gear.
Blips on the Screen
A few ructions or surprises with friends first up will lead to a quieter time from Mar 7, as Venus shifts into Aries. You'll withdraw from social or romantic life or you'll pursue secret or private dealings. Your own thoughts or older people will be involved. There will be fiery eruptions or feelings from others, or you'll deal with intractable or emotional people. Be extra careful with spending and resist the causal encounter. Too much fiery food won't be good for Bull's belly. The air's intense on Mar 11, so avoid drama or splurges with money or love. The 'feel' will turn practical but with style nonetheless, as Venus hits your sign on Mar 31. Love is in the air.
Home Front
At last, the home front will stop being a battle line, as Mars turns direct in Leo on Mar 10. You can unwind the wound up bits of you or the family, as needful change, domestic or emotional will finally sputter into life after lengthy obstruction or delay. Whether it's DIY, waiting for the builders, calming errant males, or making the right move for the domicile, it's happening.
