ORACLE CARD OF THE MONTH: “Logical reasoning” (Mercury in Air). We are required this month to be mentally agile, inventive, dynamic, inquisitive, and clever. Progressive thoughts, futuristic concepts, extreme theories, and advanced ideas are appealing. A creative attitude, detached reasoning ability, and fast decisions are required. Intellectually refined, concerned with justice, and highly sensitive to humanitarian concerns, we find surprising new solutions to emergency situations.

Mars enters Pisces on March 2nd till April 9. During the next 5 weeks, our physical stamina may be softer and our drive more subtle. Easily influenced by others, we could feel vaguely uneasy, self-sacrificial, and somewhat indolent. Because strength, direction, practicality, and self-motivation tend to be lacking, we could get lost in confusion or daydreaming. It is important that we avoid underhanded actions, as this could attract secret enemies. The more we make our subconscious motivations conscious, the more we can gain from this otherwise evasive cycle. Alongside taking an interest in metaphysical studies, we are encouraged to engage in creative work and develop the romantic side of our nature.
On March 3rd, Lunar Eclipse in Virgo (12º54’). This degree is associated with the following image: “A powerful statesman overcomes a state of political hysteria”. Driven by a need for perfection and efficiency, we are likely to be more practical and methodical than usual. If we manage to not doubt ourselves, our sharp critical faculties, our ability to work hard, a meticulous attention to details, and a good business sense lead to success.
It is important however that we strike a good balance between our head and our heart. A deep understanding of how our emotions affect our body, and doing our best to avoid stress and worry, help us keep illness at bay.
A variety of small trips could pull us in various directions. Being erratic and hypersensitive, saying something we didn’t really mean, or being plagued by mental patterns of our past could seriously endanger our effectiveness and cloud our communications. But if we can learn from our experiences, let go of ancient hurts and grudges, forgive, forget and demonstrate adaptability, we shall find that amazing doors open, the right people appear, and chances for genuine growth arise.
Venus enters Aries on March 6 till March 30. During the next 3 weeks, our heart is on our sleeve. We could fall in love at first sight, form impulsive ties, yet not be the best at handling our relationships. Even though we are demonstrative, enthusiastic, passionate, sincere, energetic, and idealistic, we could also be aggressive, self-absorbed, and explosive. Thinking before we leap both in love and financial matters may not exactly be our strongest suit. Being too generous, taking uncalculated risks, or spending money more quickly than we earn it, could lead to heavy losses.
Jupiter turns direct on March 10. Its shadow period remains until June 6, 2026. The degree it ends its retrogradation on (15º05’ Cancer) is associated with the following image: “A man studying a mandala in front of him, with the help of a very ancient book.” We can now look forward to more mental clarity, creative thinking, and intellectual progress. Opportunities for spiritual growth come through studying ancient texts and developing new perspectives. The more we learn, demonstrate focus, are flexible and open-minded, the greater our progress in seemingly unrelated fields of interest.
Sun enters Aries on March 20th till April 19. A wonderful month to initiate activities. Our pioneering spirit seeks new avenues of expression. Energetic, independent, self-confident, enthusiastic, and spontaneous, our willpower is intensified. Our powerful need to prove ourselves through action, makes us leap into situation we don’t always consider the consequences of. Quick to think on our feet, we may also show signs of impatience, become easily bored, and not be so good about seeing our projects to the finish line. Headstrong and impetuous, we may resist listening to wise advice. Yet, our highly competitive energy pushes us to want to be the first and the best. If we can avoid taking ourselves too seriously, there isn’t much we cannot accomplish during this time.
Also on March 20th, Mercury turns direct at 8º39’ Pisces. This degree is symbolized by: “A jockey spurs his horse, intent of outdistancing his rivals.” The first 3 weeks of March create a little bit of a blur between our conscious thoughts and what is coming from our unconscious. We could lose ourselves in a world of daydreaming, wishful thinking, and fantasy. The misunderstandings that are bound to occur, are best resolved by expressing our perceptions through creative art. After March 20th, communications resume their normal course, yet are made stronger by the mystical awareness, the depth of self-understanding, and the universe’s mysteries we unearthed.
Venus enters Taurus on March 30 till April 24. During the next 3 weeks, we become concerned with issues related to safety, comfort, and money. Gardening, leisurely walks in Nature, beautifying our home, and treating ourselves to a nice massage or a good meal feel pleasurable. A deep desire to love and be loved, as well as find emotional stability become motivating forces in our life. We may feel more sensual, relaxed, even lazy, but our feelings are grounded in common sense. This is a wonderful time to start a serious romance. We approach relationships with practicality, kindness, but also possessiveness. In a long-lasting union, we seek loyalty, reliability, and genuine affection. Our attitude towards financial matters is practical. We value our material possessions, have an eye for luxury items, and engage in solid investments.

Monday 3/2: Mars enters Pisces (6:16 AM)
Kindly refer to the opening paragraph.
Wednesday 3/4: Venus Sextile Uranus (8:41 AM)
Our popularity increase. We are likely to seek unusual, charming, progressive, talented friends who may be younger or from a very different social or religious background. Our optimism, exuberance, and originality lead to exciting connections and interesting love opportunities. Attracted to independent, unconventional, exciting people, we need however to stay away from any feeling of jealousy, control or possessiveness, or these relationships would end as abruptly as they started. A great day to break a stale routine.
Thursday 3/5: Sun Trine Jupiter (9:14 AM)
One of the happiest, luckiest days of the year. Ready to break free from anything that held us from expressing our true self, and filled with enthusiasm, faith, and optimism, we seek new experiences that expand our horizons. Adventures come in all shapes and forms. Our ability to see the big picture provides us with deep insights into future social trends and cultural developments. A fabulous day to seek admission in a university-level course. Financial investments are favored. Being generous and considerate towards those who are less favored that ourselves ensures a constant flow of prosperity.
Friday 3/6: Venus enters Aries (2:46 AM)
Kindly refer to the opening paragraph.
Saturday 3/7: Sun Conjunct Mercury (3:02 AM), Venus Conjunct Neptune (3:27 AM)
A pleasant, idealistic day. Our sensitivity is intensified. A romantic attraction could be imbued with mystical glamour. Our connection could be both subtle and magnetic but also a little confusing as deceit could lurk under the surface. Likely to feel vulnerable, nostalgic, dreamy, and maybe a little anxious, we are drawn to art, decoration, and creativity. Today, we should beware of financial losses due to unwise speculations or concealed information.
Sunday 3/8: Venus Conjunct Saturn (6:40 AM), Mercury Trine Jupiter (10:23 PM)
The way we view love is being re-evaluated. A day to be realistic about our relationships regarding what works and what doesn’t, and become clear on what we need emotionally. An excellent transit to restructure our finances and become more cautious and conservative in our spending habits. Very favorable also for cleaning our home and drawing on our inner serenity. Intellectual progress, reading, writing, teaching, advertising, as well as any form of publication or legal affairs are encouraged, as are exchanging ideas on philosophy, religion, finance or education. Making plans for the future is favored. Seeing all the possibilities, we strike a good balance between our attention to practical details and a more global perspective.
Monday 3/9: Venus Sextile Pluto (11:52 PM)
Seeking to be released from material limitations, this is a great day for contracting a new insurance or finding new ways of making money. In our social life we seek quality and depth over quantity. A significant relationship may go through a significant change forcing us to examine and purge feelings we thought we had already overcome. An emotional crisis could make us end an outgrown connection in favor of a more meaningful one. For the sake of peace, in the face of forcefulness and manipulation, we should choose cooperation or compromise.
Tuesday 3/10: Jupiter turns direct (8:30 PM)
Kindly refer to the opening paragraph.
Sunday 3/15: Mercury Conjunct Mars (1:08 AM)
Decisive, frank, and outspoken, our mind is sharp, our insights are penetrating, we are competitive and enjoy intellectual challenges. Going straight to the point, we are potentially tactless and abrupt, and do not shy away from defending our position. Debates are appealing especially if they bring up controversial issues. We should however be careful when driving. Haste, impulsivity, and impatience could make us accident-prone. Fevers and injuries requiring surgery are also possible today. Vigorous physical exercise helps us blow some steam off.
Wednesday 3/18: Venus Square Jupiter (9:00 AM), Sun Sextile Uranus (1:20 PM)
Today, it could be tempting to exaggerate our emotions, seek flamboyant characters, be over the top dramatic, party too much, and, throwing caution to the winds, fall into excesses in every way. Our social interactions could be vain and superficial. Somewhat wasteful, lacking judgement, having distorted values, and being careless, we may be more vulnerable than usual to misplaced confidence. Our need to have fun could distract us from the work that needs to be done. A day to expect the unexpected! Plans are disrupted for the better, creative changes occur, and interesting situations arise. Our enthusiastic drive, magnetism, and altruistic disposition lead to a dynamic social life. Unusual groups stimulate our curiosity. Our increased self-confidence, personal expression, and uniqueness, help us further independent enterprises. Grasping ideas quickly, our thinking is progressive and our financial speculations based on original concepts.
Friday 3/20: the Sun enters Aries (7:46 AM), Mercury turns direct (12:33 PM)
Kindly refer to the opening paragraphs.
Saturday 3/21: Mars Trine Jupiter (5:01 PM)
Today, significant success can be ours for the taking. We meet challenges with optimism, constructive, and expansive actions. Invigorated by interesting people and stimulating projects, we work enthusiastically, with honor and integrity. Self-improvement, increased personal expression, and positive endeavors are great channels for this transit’s high energy. We are clear on who we are and what we want. Drawn to adventurous, outdoor activities, we are also protected from any potential danger.
Sunday 3/22: Sun Conjunct Neptune (4:18 AM)
We are prone to daydreaming and floating in contemplation. Our awareness of beauty is particularly refined. Our imagination is intensified. Our dreams are vivid. We may even have psychic experiences. Goals benefitting humanity, charities, and any form of social service are favored. Romance is positive inasmuch as our relationship is realistic, honest, considerate and based on mutual respect.
Wednesday 3/25: Sun Conjunct Saturn (1:56 AM), Sun Sextile Pluto (11:16 AM)
A rather sobering day. We may be asked to assume new responsibilities. Actions are delayed, setbacks slow us down, our work could feel heavy and tedious. Our authority is put to the test, so is our efficiency, concentration, and organization. Not a good day for any kind of investment or financial speculation, but excellent for making long-term plans. In the face of frustrations and restrictions we discover a wealth of inner resourcefulness. Turning away from toxic people and situations which have proven negative, opens a new phase of life. Our organization skills and highly developed intuition enable us to mend disagreements and discover dynamic solutions.
Saturday 3/28: Saturn Sextile Pluto (3:13 PM)
A long lasting, important transit that affects the collective. Today, no obstacle can resist the decisiveness of our quiet determination. Difficulties, limitations, coercive people, restrictive situations, and frustrations test our strength, but also offer us the opportunity to prove ourselves and gain control not through manipulation but through negotiations. A huge inner regeneration comes through hard, reclusive, productive work, focused energy, intense effort, and possible great sacrifices. Scientific and metaphysical research is appealing.
Monday 3/30: Venus enters Taurus (9:01 AM)
Kindly refer to the opening paragraph.
Wishing you a dynamic month of March!
In Loving Light.
