Virgo Monthly Forecast for March 2010 (If you know your rising sign, read that too, for a balanced forecast. Go to Forecasts)
Up Close and Personal
The wash from the Full Moon in your sign on Feb 28 will send you flowing into March, as love and close relations hit waves of excitement, or emotional highs and lows. You'll see where you stand in romantic life or with partnership concerns. With the Sun in Pisces, 'up close and personal' is certainly the theme and Mercury into Pisces on day one will bring communication from that quarter. There'll be listening to do, as you ride the waves of change on Mar 3.
The mood's intense as Venus slips into Aries on Mar 7, shifting the focus of social or romantic interaction onto money and deep or secret dealings. Mar 8 brings an announcement or news from close quarters, while Mar 9 sees a narrowing of the budget or a negotiated plan with finance. On Mar 10, the shackles that have held you back or obstructed your efforts start to loosen, as Mars moves out of reverse in your solar twelfth house. Shape the future you've dreamed of by culturing your actions carefully and creatively. It's intense in fiscal or erotic life on Mar 11 and drama is on the menu. Don't be swayed from what you know is the right path.
Someone close will set a new pattern, or you'll make a new commitment with partnership or a close association on Mar 15 at the New Moon in Pisces. Absorb the talk, but intervene in the flow to make necessary counterpoints. Excitement follows and deep discussion, as Mercury hits Aries the same day, turning communications round to finance or secret dealings. Again, decisions of a serious or determining nature are in the frame, and you'll open a door or close one.
Something or someone will be left behind, as the Sun rolls into Aries at the Equinox on Mar 20, putting your affairs into the fiscal cauldron to boil up new strategies or involvements while scouring away at that which is surplus to requirements. You'll be bound by a promise or an obligation. Secret plans or deals with money will form, focusing you on important goals. Strong dealings must overcome stress or tension and achieve an outcome. Mar 30 will bring a guiding light from the Full Moon in Libra onto your financial affairs. Close ties will flourish.
Moving Swiftly
Mercury quickly flits through the last of Pisces, focusing on communication with people close and bringing news, opportunity or high emotion on Mar 8. Celebrate and listen too. Mar 17 sees the messenger into Aries, focusing on money talk and joint fiscal obligations. There'll be a tough negotiation or deal, then a shift in tactics or situation on Mar 18 to 20. Make a strong decision but avoid conflict. Put yourself in the frame, but keep to principles. The mood is intense, as will be the people or situations you deal with. Break from the old with a fresh start.
Complex Connections
Venus begins in Pisces, focusing on partnership and seeing the rise or roll of changeability or excitement affecting someone close on Mar 3. The unexpected will deliver, then it's into Aries for sweet Venus on Mar 7. Financial or erotic life will come into the frame and you'll engage in a balancing act with outgoings and incomings, followed by a tough decision or an intense meeting or encounter on Mar 11. Drama abounds but you can negotiate a solution. There'll be a new start or venture, then Venus slips to Taurus on Mar 31, lighting up a new horizon.
The Inner Mechanic
Mar 10 brings Mars out of reverse motion in Leo and your solar twelfth house, removing the blips from the screen so you can start to shape plans for action, or incline towards a new path by gently altering your direction or style. Get in touch with your inner mechanic to accomplish the process, as warrior Mars will take time to pick up speed, still moving in the twelfth. If you shift gears carefully and build the revs a measure at a time, you'll get to something seriously new. Look to the midyear. You'll breathe a sigh of relief as delay or opposition fades. You will gain the most by working to spiritual or creative themes and being true to your dreams.
