March 2016
Thought for the month: Pleasure is the flower that passes; remembrance, the lasting
perfume. ~Jean de Boufflers
In General:
With
a good many planets in Pisces this can shape up to be a very emotional and instinctive
month. March 6th sees Mars enter Sagittarius and handling numerous
projects at once becomes almost second nature to many of us! This is a good
time for studying, particularly on academic level. On
the 8th a New Super Moon has a total Solar eclipse. This New Moon in Pisces
(the only total solar eclipse in 2016 and visible in East Asia, Australia and The
Pacific) heralds a time for spirituality to come to the fore. Many of us will
need some time alone with our feelings. Solar Eclipses, force us to contemplate
options we would never usually explore. Although this can cause momentary
disorder, it’s wise to remember that eclipses are there to bring positives into
our lives! Mercury conjunct Neptune in Pisces on the 11th is a highly cognitive
time. On Mar 16th expansive Jupiter
makes a trine to Pluto. This mixture of energies sets up an outstanding
three-week period of time when we should reach for conclusive outcomes in healing,
travel, legal matters, and even find
that perfect partner for support.
Mars
23rd sees the Full Moon in Libra and we naturally put a good deal of
energy into our relationships. If you are celebrating your birthday this week
get ready for a significant and empowering year ahead! Locally it’s a wonderful
opportunity to see the full moon eclipse and on the world scene religious
matters and business matters will be highlighted.
Aries
This is a great time
to attain your desires and to reach your goals. You know what you want and how
to get it. Increased charisma will auger well for relationships. Fast thinking and
decisiveness means that making plans is ideal, and being more adventurous and
taking risks ought to lead to positive outcomes.
Taurus
You have particularly
good social skills now so making new friends is easy as people appreciate your
friendly attitude and agreeableness. This is an excellent time to make real progress with the
things in life that mean a lot to you, work, relationships and longer term objectives.
Gemini
On March 21st,
Mercury leaves Pisces and enters Aries, and you can think about things in a new
way, coming up with original ideas and thinking outside of the box. You can
think about your future dreams, and how you can make them a reality now. Now you can make good
impressions that benefit you, and you can come up with long-term plans that are
realistic.
Cancer
Some of you may be
giving intimate advice and perhaps ‘sensing’ more than thinking as your gut
knowing will be stronger now. You will be taking your direction more seriously or be
more aware of how you present yourself and the impression you are making on
others. Traditions or social conventions can have more of your attention.
Leo
This month Venus
joins Mercury in Pisces, and you enjoy connecting with others to create strong
emotional bonds. In love, you take your relationships more earnestly, you want
to feel closer to your partner emotionally and have a better understanding of
them. You can benefit from having a partner this month, so be open to working
with someone instead of alone.
Virgo
You enjoy your time
spent with the people in your life, and may want to spend more time with
others, especially one-on-one. You can center on improving your relationships,
wanting to make sure you have true guarantees in all of them. You’ll be rewarded
for the hard work you’ve done to improve your financial well-being.
Libra
This can be a good
month for creative work, especially writing. You will likely be presented with new work opportunities
that excite you, or you will create new openings for yourself. Focus on the
little things, make lists and get organized, and you will enjoy being
productive and resourceful once again!
Scorpio
Mars enters your
money sector on the 2nd, and this could be what spurns you on to focus more on
your work. You’re motivated to be in a better position financially, and you can
do what it takes to create some order. This can be a great time for a creative
project or endeavour, and you can be praised or recognized for something you’ve
done.
Sagittarius
In March you want to
have fun, and to be with the people you find fun, who make you laugh, and make
you feel positive. This can be good time to begin something that you’ll focus on for the next
couple years of your life, and you can be excited about it. After this eclipse
you should have a better understanding of how you can create the future you’ve
always wanted.
Capricorn
The lunar eclipse on
the 23rd is the third in a series of three lunar eclipses over the last three
years in your career and life path sector. If you’ve been experiencing a period
of challenge and growth, this could be why. With this being the final chapter,
you can now move on from the chaos, and get rewarded for hard work to attain
your goals.
Aquarius
You take more time to
enjoy the moment and experience life, being more in tune with your body and
nature. You seem to be ultra-charming, charismatic, and attractive to others
now. However, you tend to question yourself and your connection to others and
the future with more intensity now.
Pisces
The solar eclipse,
occurs on March 8th in your own sign of Pisces. You may liftoff a new
professional or personal endeavor that will culminate with the equivalent lunar
eclipse in your sign on September 16th. You could get more money from your job. Alternatively,
you could see a spouse or family member come into some funds.
Astral Peeks:
Mabon,
Autumn Equinox, March 20-23
Theoretically, an equinox is an astronomical point
and, due to the fact that the earth wobbles on its axis slightly, the date can
vary by a few days depending on the year. The autumnal equinox occurs when the
sun crosses the equator on its seeming journey southward, and we experience a
day and a night that are of equal length. Up until Mabon, the hours of daylight
have been greater than the hours from sunset to dawn. But from now on, the
reverse holds true.
This is the period to look back on the previous year and
to plan for the future. In the rhythm of the year, Mabon is a time of rest and
merriment, after the hard work of gathering the crops. Warm autumn days are
followed by colder nights, as the Old Sun God returns to the embrace of the
Goddess. It is when we stop and relax and enjoy the fruits of
our individual harvests, whether they be from labouring in our gardens, working
at our careers, raising our families, or just coping with the miasma of
ordinary life. At this time food is prepared for storage, jams and pickles are
made, and fruits are candied and preserved for the coming winter. In personal
terms it is when we conserve what we have learnt, grown, experienced and keep
them safe to use again wisely!
Try taking a walk outside and enjoying the cooling
weather, gathering autumn leaves in bright colours, preparing
a feast of foods appropriate for the season, making leaf prints!
If you are feasting then use this lovely chant to
honour your meal!
Our hands work for peace and goodness,
We toil and till to bless the land.
Let us gather round the bounteous table.
To feast and relish what we have harvested. So Mote It
Be
Mabon
