As we enter March, we enter eclipse season. If you’ve had your astrological ear to the ground, you’ll know that this month’s forecast has been high on many an astrologer’s watch list. Not only is Mars finally direct and surging ahead through Cancer, but eclipses herald the unpredictable. March 14’s lunar eclipse in Virgo promises revelations around unsustainable energy investments. Confusing or heavy circumstances threaten to draw us into unhealthy coping mechanisms and emotional overwhelm complicates our ability to choose differently for ourselves. The universe will step in to force our fate. Meanwhile, March 29’s Aries solar eclipse is the last in a series of Aries/Libra eclipses that began in April 2023. Expect volatile culminations to feature, especially as this eclipse occurs just over 24 hours before idealistic Neptune enters Aries for the next seven months (a preview of its 14-year transit in the sign of the ram). March encourages us not to hold on too tightly to beliefs, plans, patterns or relationships that merit dissolution. It’s time to dream differently! NOTABLE TRANSITS March 1/2 - Venus is retrograde: and desires require a rethink. On the one hand, it’s not all about you. On the other hand…it is. March 3 – Mercury enters Aries: where it spends the next three weeks before retrograding into Pisces. March 15 – Mercury is retrograde: use this opportunity to reevaluate words said in haste. March 20/21 – Sun enters Aries: marking the equinox and the astrological new year! March 27/28 – Venus enters Pisces: romantic themes from early February feature. Exes resurrect with poetic thoughts to share. Do you care to indulge them? March 29/30 – Mercury enters Pisces: say the thing while you have the chance, then close this chapter. March 30/31 – Neptune enters Aries: your spiritual mission statement is about to get very interesting… Written by Nyssa Grazda
