There is a mood of harmony in the atmosphere this month. This combines with a few unexpected and exciting changes throughout the month that definitely keep it exciting!
Mars in Virgo continues to travel in retrograde motion. As a result, even though there is a part of you that feels ready to take action, you may encounter obstacles that stand in your way. Plans can go a bit awry, and false starts can occur. Since this energy combines with Saturn in Libra, also retrograding throughout the month, we’ll feel pulled to reevaluate how we interact with others, while at the same time obstacles stand in the way of taking direct action on these decisions. Consequently, this is an excellent month to use the art of diplomacy to further your plans.
Through the opposition you may encounter when dealing with others (especially in the workplace), you can learn important lessons about how to change your way of interacting with people so that they will cooperate with you and support your initiatives. As you find out what works during this period, you will gain effective tools for interacting with others that you can embrace and continue to use the rest of your life.
Retrograde Mars squares the nodal axis all month, tempting us to try to get more immediate results by outtalking the other person or using logic to get him to see our points of view. One of the things we are all learning now is that timing is everything. Just as farmers have to wait patiently for the seeds they planted in the spring to bear fruit in the fall, so, too, do we have to wait for the right time to take action and for that action to bring the desired results.
Resist the impulse to give in to anger or to use excessive force to get your way this month. Instead, try to rise above difficult situations and see if your faith can provide intuitive guidance about how to reach your goal successfully.

Uranus in Aries sextiles/trines the Gemini/Sagittarius nodal axis all month. This should provide a source of tremendous ease in being yourself and in allowing the new you that Uranus in Aries is bringing forth.

On the 12th, Mercury (lord of thought) turns Retrograde, emphasizing our need to slow down and take stock of where we have already been. With all this backward movement at the time of spring, time of new beginnings, it will be easy to get confused. We are preparing for a great leap in consciousness which requires us to see everything in life from a higher perspective.
The Full Moon on the 8th at 4:39 AM EST is in Pisces/Virgo. Pisces (sign of timelessness) is strongly emphasized now with Neptune (ruler of Pisces) in its own sign; this shows our tenacity to hold on to our dreams. On the other hand, Mercury (ruler of Virgo) is in Aries (sign of immediacy) and Conjunct Uranus (god of infinite consciousness). The trick is toovercome some delusional ideas that have followed us unconsciously for many years, without discarding our higher vision of the truth. Some quick backtracking and diligent focusing on immediate basic needs carries us to solutions to problems right in front of us. However, fundamental difficulties remain unaffecteduntil we dig deeper into our hidden conflicts.
The Sun entering Aries on March 20th at 01:15 AM EDT shows the happenings for the next solar year with special emphasis on the next three months. With the Sun Conjunct Mercury (god of information) and Uranus (god of uniqueness) we can expect tremendous mental stimulation and quick and spontaneous changes of direction.
With the Moon Conjunct Neptune (god of culture) and Opposing Mars (god of war), we can expect a showdown between our ideals and our basic needs. The bottom line is that we are in for a wild ride through many twists and turns as our emotional impulses pull in one direction while our mind vibrates to a different frequency. Getting back to basic principles that we have overlooked will help us achieve real harmony and balance.
The New Moon on the 22nd at 10:37 AM EDT suggests that we are on new, uncharted territory. Every New Moon is a chance to start over; we are ending something and beginning something. The New Moon in Aries is a chance to start over in a more fundamental manner because this is the beginning of the astrological year; this is spring. However, Mars (ruler of Aries) is in Virgo (sign of analysis) and Retrograde (going backwards).
While we have great potency to move forward, we have to acknowledge where we have been and reexamine our lives. Mars in Virgo is attempting to perfect some aspect of our nature. However, Mars is Opposite and Contra-parallel Neptune (god of spiritual ideals) who is in his own sign of Pisces (sign of union). This clearly shows that our perfection can not be achieved by mere picking apart and self-criticism; it must come through inspiration and a higher vision of the truth. Retrograde Mercury (messenger of the gods) is Conjunct the New Moon which is also Conjunct Uranus (lord of infinite knowledge); this clearly shows that we are prompted to think in new ways in order to resolve our conflicts.
Mercury and Mars are in mutual reception (in the sign of each other’s rulership); this shows that our new thoughts will find immediate application; we have the ability to change the current equation.
