February 2023 | April 2023  The Month in Brief | Year Ahead in 2012

Thu Mar 1: Good With Money

The lively Moon zips through Gemini so be careful spending your pennies today. If there's a chance to economize then take it. If there's a way to do something just as well but more cheaply, then go that road. Work at your finances, managing the small things and the details of your spending, and you will do much better in the long term. Providential colors are olive green and beige. Lucky numbers are 10 and 26.

Fri Mar 2: Follow Your Intuition

If you can detach your feelings from your thinking you will find it easier to focus and concentrate. As Mercury slips behind the scenes into your twelfth house, you become more involved with confidential issues. Messages may be very subtle or contain hidden meanings meant only for you. Follow your intuition, get in touch with your subconscious, and pay closer attention to your dreams. Appropriate colors are cool jade and dark grape. Lucky numbers are 26 and 63.

Sat Mar 3: Cut Red Tape

Cut through red tape, indecision and get straight to the point. Luckily you will not bear grudges for long, but you will be upset if you are not given full credit for your actions. You will be highly persuasive and charming, though perhaps a touch self-centered. Avoid power plays with women. Advantageous colors are mocca and laurel green. Lucky numbers are 19 and 8.

Sun Mar 4: Cuddlesome Friend

You should be in a position to give more now, Taurus, but stay sensitive to the unspoken needs of those close to you. You can be truly compassionate, but make sure you do not become emotionally overloaded. If you can't find a cuddlesome friend, snuggle up in a comfortable armchair with a good book. Favorable colors are grapefruit and carnelian. Lucky numbers are 36 and 12.

Mon Mar 5: Planetary Boost

Venus sweeping into your sign boosts your magnetism and increases your personal influence, Taurus. Charm, willingness to cooperate and a sense of humor make a big difference. You'll catch more flies with honey than with vinegar. Why not indulge in a new hair style, outfit, or beauty treatment? Your physical appearance will have as big an impact as your personality. Beneficial colors are yellow satin and fire opal. Lucky numbers are 20 and 59.

Tue Mar 6: Charm Works Wonders

Move towards harmony, and act as a peacemaker if you can. However, don't forget to stand up up for your rights. Your natural charm works wonders, which puts everyone around you at ease. With Venus in your sign you can put yourself about in a thoroughly charming fashion. Everyone will adore your ways, so you should be able to pour oil on troubled waters. Fortunate colors are apple green and teal. Lucky numbers are 14 and 12.

Wed Mar 7: Needs Versus Wants

Although you know you should be sorting out long term plans, a lovely aspect to Venus urges to enjoy yourself. Find a way to balance the needs of the future with your desire for instant fun. Friends may pull you one way and loved ones another. You have been spending more time recently with your wider circle of acquaintances but have more intimate companions been feeling excluded? Propitious colors are crimson and rich honey. Lucky numbers are 41 and 23.

Thu Mar 8: Full Moon

A special relationship needs a helping hand during the next two weeks. Maybe you've got to have a quiet word with this person so you can sort out a minor niggle or reach a better understanding with them. Alternatively, the coming fortnight may mark a watershed in your relationship as it moves from one stage to another. Favorable colors are peach blossom and laurel green. Lucky numbers are 5 and 11.

Fri Mar 9: Enjoy The Challenge

Don't get furious if someone disagrees with you, but stand back and be creative about the differences. Enjoy the challenge. If you are feeling gloomy give yourself a shake. Sometimes you just have to get underneath to find out what people's motivations really are, or what has led you to the situation you are facing. Knowledge can lead to freedom. Advantageous colors are mink and melon. Lucky numbers are 8 and 45.

Sat Mar 10: Mixed Blessing

Friends and teammates are a mixed blessing at the moment, switching from exhilarating to infuriating and back again. The influences could bring good, fun relationships into your life, but it will also bring rather zany people who are not necessarily the kind of friends you want in the long term. It's exciting in the short term, but then you begin to meet people who are more solid and settled. There's a lot to learn with both types. Balancing colors are marshmallow and vermilion. Lucky numbers are 28 and 34.

Sun Mar 11: Express Your Feelings

Balance is what you are aiming for, though you may be swinging to extremes in the effort to find it. Having a close partner is vital to your confidence now, so try not to be jealous or possessive or get unsettled if things do not go exactly how you like it. Don't react too quickly, hearing slights where none exist. If you express your affection directly, you will find you get what you want. Effective colors are heather and green tartan. Lucky numbers are 14 and 68.

Mon Mar 12: Mercury Retrograde

Everything grinds to a halt as Mercury turns retrograde in your twelfth house today. Take a few deep breaths and try not to get frustrated; the next three weeks may find you struggling to express yourself. At least you will have plenty of time to formulate just exactly what it is you want to say! Be patient with your loved ones and with government departments, institutions, hospitals and the like, as they cannot read your mind. Read more on Mercury retrograde! Propitious colors are lavender and silver. Lucky numbers are 11 and 21.

Tue Mar 13: Do Not Overreact

Burying your head in the sand ostrich-fashion will not work, so get yourself into reforming mood. Changes will not happen overnight; maybe it will take months, but if you apply yourself with persistence you will be pleased at the outcome. Don't be too sensitive and interpret as criticisms things that others say which were never meant to hurt. Don't overreact until you have checked out what was intended. Lively colors are opal and brass. Lucky numbers are 48 and 64.

Wed Mar 14: Close To Your Chest

Feeling secretive? Playing your cards close to your chest is best, dear Taurus. Not even your closest friends know what's going on inside. It's emotionally more intense than usual, so don't magnify certain situations or comments into something bigger than they are. Wanting everything to be totally wonderful could set you up for a minor letdown, but overall, life is behaving rather positively. Positive colors are cranberry and lavender. Lucky numbers are 48 and 11.

Thu Mar 15: Subtle Clues

As your mind wanders restlessly, you should not be too susceptible to persuasion. Picking up subtle clues from others, acting like a sponge, or soaking in the atmosphere, may be fun but can make you biased without realizing it. If you are stuck in the one place, go talk to more adventurous types, or find some stretching book to read. It's hard to get into suitably practical routines. Stabilizing colors are pineapple and moonstone. Lucky numbers are 34 and 25.

Fri Mar 16: Shoulder To Cry On

In really significant tasks you crack along, though it's not necessarily easy to communicate with other people. Are you putting yourself across too cautiously? Kindness comes more easily to you than anger, so avoid confrontations wherever possible. Be more sympathetic, a good shoulder to cry on for friends in need. Appropriate colors are chrysoberyl and pale amber. Lucky numbers are 69 and 12.

Sat Mar 17: In Your Element

You are in your element in group efforts, keen to see that everyone pulls in the same direction. However, since you will be fiery, headstrong and not always sensible, stopping to think first would be wise. Don't rush in where angels fear to tread. Your boredom threshold is low so it's hard to keep focused. Organize some practical types to tidy up behind you and keep your initial impetus running. Confident colors are black onyx and sage. Lucky numbers are 13 and 68.

Sun Mar 18: Be Brave

It's best to smooth over problems rather than face up to difficulties, as the cosmos is not exactly friendly today. Take the diplomatic route, rather than stamping your hoof and throwing a tantrum. Your creative talents definitely need to be given an outlet. Listen to your intuition and then make your inner visions live out in the world. Be brave. Advantageous colors are almond and cranberry. Lucky numbers are 16 and 23.

Mon Mar 19: Go For It!

During this period of your life, you are clear about what you want and also exactly how you intend to get it. Just remember to try not to get bad-tempered if anything or anyone gets in your way. Your fuse is definitely shorter than usual. The people around you will notice and admire your bravery, though they will probably question your common sense. Even though you may come across as tactless, you are definitely going to get things done. Beneficial colors are hazelnut and grape. Lucky numbers are 41 and 25.

Tue Mar 20: Quiet Backwaters

Not at your most outgoing and sociable, you're happiest in the quiet backwaters for a few weeks. Even your own company is not a hardship. Since you're going to be a bit vague, why not let yourself dream, listen to music or just be a little more imaginative? But don't let someone pull the wool over your eyes today. Positive colors are amber and aubergine. Lucky numbers are 10 and 21.

Wed Mar 21: The Equinox

The Equinox opens the doorway to a new astrological year, so prepare for some big changes in weeks to come. Your unconscious motivations and the influence these hidden factors have on your conscious drives are active now. Have you an unconscious resentment of authority? Now is a good time to analyze why you may have developed hidden resentments. A need to use or gain hidden power and control or even to hide the power and resources you have is stimulated. Read more on the Equinox! Beneficial colors are amethyst and golden topaz. Lucky numbers are 12 and 25.

Thu Mar 22: New Beginnings

New Moons are always the start of something new and this is a big one, because it's pretty much on the Equinox. If you think of what it looks like in the sky, it's a faint crescent of light that grows bigger as time goes on, so don't expect anything major immediately. You need to put your wholehearted attention behind the scenes into whatever you want to put into place over the next year. Positive colors are claret and sharkskin. Lucky numbers are 5 and 28.

Fri Mar 23: Deep And Mystical

Feeling a little lonely or shy? Well, you might hide your feelings now, but this phase lasts only for a few days so there's nothing to worry about. Just enjoy your own company. Socializing may not appeal, but there are other activities to attract you. Anything mystical or spiritual will hold your attention, since you are tuned into deeper levels of awareness. You can also be very helpful as far as other people are concerned. Harmonious colors are slate and jasmine. Lucky numbers are 54 and 50.

Sat Mar 24: Edgy Bulls

The next few days are a bit edgy, but with the Moon and Venus in your sign, things are more likely to boost you up rather than to bring you down. It's important to have solid, reassuring mates around you now - people you can depend on. Your plans and hopes for the future change without warning, but you do feel the need for adventure and excitement. Initially you may feel slightly insecure if you let of your old ambitions, but this is a time to test out the unknown. Nothing ventured, nothing gained. Ideal colors are golden beryl and red pepper. Lucky numbers are 78 and 61.

Sun Mar 25: Power Struggles

You're thinking about things more deeply than usual and talking in a penetrating way, and come across as being more forceful than you intend. Money is a serious concern for you now, and there are power struggles over resources with someone close to you. You have to find the fine line between being too controlling and being too submissive. Aim for compromise and that will benefit everybody, including you. Positive colors are ginger and taupe. Lucky numbers are 43 and 66.

Mon Mar 26: Passions Soar

As the Moon dances with Venus in your sign, you feel passionately enthusiastic about the better things of life. Your physical passions soar, your charm is at the max, and you demand the right to be yourself. No one is going to push you into a corner, demanding that you do your duty. Indulgence, relaxation and finding your place in the spotlight are your main aims. Just watch that you don't take too many risks if you are sporty. Charming colors are violet and carmine. Lucky numbers are 1 and 9.

Tue Mar 27: The Key

Try not to be resentful if other people seem to be holding you back because, they may have a purpose. Bulls achieve a great deal more if they slow down. Out of what may initially seem to be setbacks, can come something more useful. Cutting corners can see you going round in circles. Because you are more deliberate than usual, when it comes to mental work, serious subjects which were once a mystery to you become clearer. Auspicious colors are terracotta and tuscan blue. Lucky numbers are 1 and 64.

Wed Mar 28: Shake Yourself

Shake yourself out of a situation where you've been feeling too timid. No use over-compromising and sweeping your feelings under the carpet. Now's the time to decide what you're willing to put up with. Money is a tricky subject at the moment, because you don't have total control, so you you'll have to soft pedal a little on demands. Don't be too submissive however. Auspicious colors are raspberry and sapphire blue. Lucky numbers are 6 and 17.

Thu Mar 29: Don't Rock The Boat

Don't rock the boat, Bulls, or burn your bridges. Eccentric or unconventional friends are fun, but there are infuriating times when they prove unreliable or uncooperative. Everything comes at a price. If you want complete loyalty and security, you need to find more dependable friends. However, boredom sets in so quickly, doesn't it? Favorable colors are pineapple and ebony. Lucky numbers are 3 and 32.

Fri Mar 30: Lucky You!

You're moving smartly around a busy schedule, with more comings than goings. Conversations, meetings and gossip around the water cooler. Gosh. Contact with neighbors, workmates and siblings is in the stars. Like a grasshopper you could jump either way. Thanks to Jupiter, you're still in a positive phase lasting for some months yet, where your confidence should soar. Today's chatty Moon is good for communication and interaction, but with Merc and Mars still in reverse gear, don't get too tied up or you'll have to unravel the knots at a later date. colors are laurel and fuchsia. Lucky numbers are 14 and 33.

Sat Mar 31: Gild the Lily?

If you try to gloss over the imperfections of life, this often comes over sounding sugary sweet. Avoid confrontations. Is it really worth the effort? Listening rather than talking is best; absorb and keep your own counsel. There is no need to gild the lily. colors are agate and cherry. Lucky numbers are 3 and 52.
