MARCH 2003 by Bob Mulligan

March is the transition of seasons, from winter to spring. Spring is the time of starting over, of planting, beginning a new cycle. Spring comes every year, however, this year we will all feel like starting over for real. The time of daylight gets longer now, in the northern hemisphere. As the Sun crosses the equinox on March 20th, we reach the balance point; we have equal hours of daylight and darkness, regardless of where we live.

The big news this month is Uranus going into Pisces. Uranus takes 7 years to go through a sign and will be in Pisces until 2011. Uranus (planet of revolution) will bring changes in weather, culture, and the way we develop and recalibrate our values. Even though these changes will be years in manifesting, we will see the beginning of these occurrences this year. And most pertinent, this month we will see an important shift in the general collective mood. We are becoming more available to the changes in culture and commerce of recent years. New invention and convention like the Internet and paperless transactions will become the accepted new reality.

This month finds us all more interested in art and culture, even as circumstances in the world reach fever pitch then recede.

1st - Saturday - A pleasant day. We are moved by circumstances to explore new relationships and strengthen existing ones.

2nd - Sunday - Venus enters Aquarius; New Moon 9:36pm EST. Intuitions are powerful today and this is the time to envision a better world. Take a few moments for yourself at the time of the New Moon and picture what you really want.

3rd - Monday - Caught between fears and hopes we struggle to overcome self-doubt and gigantic urges.

4th -Tuesday - Mars sextile Uranus, Mercury parallel Pluto and conjuncts Uranus, Mars enters Capricorn, Mercury enters Pisces. This is a truly remarkable day as we can gain immediate insight into our own methods and procedures. Things begun today may linger for years.

5th - Wednesday - Mercury sextiles Mars and Venus contra-parallels Jupiter. Positive breaks encourage us to fulfill long-standing promises. Acting swiftly we are able to find compromises to long-standing opposing forces.

6th - Thursday - Venus Semi-square Pluto. Revolution is in the air. If you are pushing hard today, be sure you understand the implication of what you are doing and the eventual long-term effects.

7th - Friday - Mercury parallel Uranus. The environment supports a new approach to working on old problems today. We are playing "catch up" in a number of areas of our lives. Try to avoid being in too big a hurry, and don't let your reach exceed your grasp.

8th- Saturday - Venus Sesquiquadrate Saturn - We are easily limited by our fears of insufficiency today. We do best if we accept (and work with) the interruptions today. Keep your focus on what is important.

9th -Sunday - Venus opposite Jupiter. Creative and nervous energy makes today exciting and interesting. Peculiar tastes and attractions can color our vision today. Using this energy well is to stay focused on the truly important.

10th - Monday - Uranus enter Pisces, Sun Square Pluto. Determination can be a very good thing, however, be willing to listen to other points of view without being pulled away from what you must do.

11th - Tuesday - Mercury semi-sextile Neptune and Venus parallels Neptune. This is the time where new artistic innovative impulses can take off. Romantic thoughts seem to color everyone's thinking somehow.

12th - Wednesday -Venus conjunct Neptune. If you have a higher vision of truth and beauty, now is the time to share it. If you are challenged in this area, today is a great time to listen to the ideas of someone who has seen something higher than ordinary existence.

13th - Thursday - Sun square Saturn. Mental or physical limitations are part of life. The challenge today is to be able to use the delays and disappointments that may come, in a positive and purposeful way.

14th - Friday -Sun sesquiquadrate Jupiter. Quick advancement comes today to those who see the opportunity and seize it. Express yourself whole-heartedly, and then stop short of over-reach. Timing is everything; accurate self-assessment essential.

15th - Saturday - Drama and creativity color the day. Big expressions and warm feelings can make this weekend lots of fun.

16th - Sunday - Mercury Square Pluto. Don't be afraid to take risks and to get involved in what seems like a never-ending project.

17th - Monday - Mercury square Saturn. Limit your commitments now and you will do better in meeting your real responsibilities during the next few weeks.

18th - Tuesday -Mars quincunx Jupiter, The Full Moon at 5:36am EST. Be magnanimous. There is a lot to be done today. Get up early and meditate at the time of the Full Moon.

19th - Wednesday - Venus sextile Pluto. Today can be extremely lucky for you if you are using your diplomatic skills.

20th - Thursday. - Sun enter Aries. It's the beginning of a new era. You will feel the urge to get on with a new plan. Timing is so important though. Don't jump until circumstances are absolutely ripe for change.

22nd - Saturday -Mercury contra-parallel the Sun. We may feel like maintaining our privacy today, but remember others need certain basic information from us.

23rd - Sunday - Pluto turns retrograde then parallels Venus. Powerful emotions surface now. We all seem to draw a line in the sand.

24th - Monday - Mars semi-sextile Neptune. There is a sharp divide today between that which is achievable and what we wish for, but can't seem to accomplish right now. Do what can be done, then just bide your time.

25th - Tuesday - Mercury trine Jupiter. The creative energy is flowing and big ideas translate into positive action. Combustible energy is easily channeled into something meaningful today.

28th - Friday - Venus parallel and conjunct Uranus, Mercury square Mars. It's a brand new day. The emotional excitement is impossible to contain. Still, be careful what you say. With great enthusiasm we go forward. Correctly channeled, our efforts create new pathways to accomplishment. Be outdoors if you are able. If the Sun is shining get some.

29th - Saturday - Sun trine Jupiter. Count your blessings. Being appreciative heals wounds and opens doors.

30th - Sunday -Mars semi-square Uranus, Mercury semi-square Venus. It's easy to be impulsive now. Corrections come in the course of things. Be responsive.
