MARCH
2004 by Bob Mulligan
Traditionally,
we celebrate the first day of spring in March in the
Northern Hemisphere. When the sun crosses the vernal
equinox we have equal hours of daylight and darkness.
This year a New Moon occurs right after the Sun crosses
into Aries, so we will actually feel the difference
as we pass from the old year to the astrological new
year.
The
first week of March we have the feeling that anything
is possible. Change is powerful and in the air. We
see vast shifting for the good on the material level.
As the energy builds up, it will be important to decide
what things stay and what things go.
The
second week, from March 8th to the 15th, we are trying
to salvage old things. There are rough financial spots
in the week. We hit some extremes. There is a new
way of doing things that is opening up in front of
us. We need to be prepared to try new methods.
The
third week, from the 15th to the 20th, we find ourselves
feeling lucky. Good, practical applications are the
hardest to achieve because we are easily distracted
by things that are out of reach. Practical mysticism
requires staying in the here and now.
The
last 11 days of March finds us moving in a new direction.
Enthusiasm and good communication skills support forward
momentum now.
1st
- Monday - Moon Conjunct Saturn, Venus Contra-parallel
Uranus. It's as if something just happened that is
carrying us far afield. Don't over-estimate what can
happen now. We are seeing the future, but it is subject
to reinterpretation, besides, the future is further
away than it may seem.
2nd
- Tuesday - Mercury Semi- Square Venus. It's a very
emotional day. An old habit of needing certain things
for our comfort can get in the way of our ability
to be practical.
3rd
- Wednesday - Jupiter Quincunx Neptune, Sun Conjunct
Mercury, Mercury Opposite Jupiter. It's a day full
of decisions. Don't worry about the things you can't
change. Cut your losses and move on.
4th
- Thursday - Sun Opposite Jupiter, Sun Semi-sextile
Neptune, Mercury Contra-parallel Jupiter, Venus Sesquiquadrate
Jupiter. Energy flows smoothly and positive energy
fills up the empty spaces.
5th
- Friday - Venus enters Taurus. Finish projects and
prepare for the weekend. Last minute bursts of effort
find us completing much today.
6th
- Saturday - The Full Moon at 16 Virgo/Pisces, at
6:15PM EST. We have immense energy going forward into
something new. Completion of the old pattern is necessary
to go forward.
7th
- Sunday - Saturn turns Stationary Direct, Mars Semi-Square
Saturn. We start dealing more effectively with our
fears and our responsibilities.
8th
- Monday - Mercury Square Pluto, Venus Sextile Uranus,
Mars Quincunx Pluto. Stubborn ideals get in the way
of good human relationships. Listen to others and
be patient.
9th
- Tuesday - Venus Contra-Parallel Pluto. Around us
people are changing, acting differently. Be willing
to express yourself differently and today is very
pleasant.
10th
- Wednesday -Sun Semi-Square Venus. Our relationship
to people, places, things may go through some interruptions
today. It's best to be able to give yourself permission
to change ways and methods of operation today.
11th
- Thursday - Venus Sextile Saturn, Mercury Semi-Square
Neptune. Simplify your life. You can't do everything
at once. Relax. Persistent problems may come to your
attention without any clear cut resolution. Some things
you see today may have some relief during the last
week of the month.
12th
- Friday - Venus Sesquiquadrate Pluto, Mercury enters
Aries, Sun Squares Pluto. It's a time of seeing how
things can be better without having the time, energy,
or money to fix the problems.

- Saturday - It's a time of closing out the past.
Communications are clear, but emotions can be intense.
Avoid extreme reactions to other people's behavior.

Uranus. The wings of beauty can lift us all today.
Good night for music and following regular guidelines.
Stay within the confines of the norms.
15th
- Monday - Mercury Square Saturn. Cut your losses.
Settle disagreements and move on. It's a time of clearing
our desks of old paperwork and realizing that some
dreams are impractical but there are some beautiful
ones that you can bring about. Concentrate on them.
16th
- Tuesday - Venus Trine Jupiter. Move quickly to bring
about a climax of the circumstances. It's one of those
days where everyone can receive a blessing.
17th
- Wednesday - Deep insight is possible. A wide perspective
is great but being aloof can stop you from being effective,
which is all important now.
18th
- Thursday - Sun Sextile Mars, Mercury Quincunx Jupiter,
Venus Square Neptune. We are presented with two possibilities
today. Long forgotten memories may color our decisions
as they surface.
19th
- Friday - Sun Semi-Square Neptune, Mercury Semi-Square
Mars, Mercury Sextile Neptune. The idealism in the
air today is truly amazing. Avoid arguments; spend
time paying attention to your own positive ideas.
Write things down. Your hunches can be uncanny now.
20th
- Saturday - Sun enters Aries, New Moon at 5:42PM
EST. It is an easy time to meditate. Also, this is
a great day for taking some symbolic act that initiates
a new activity. We can move in a new direction.
21st
- Sunday - Mars enters Gemini, Mercury Semi-sextile
Venus. Be aware that others may have an overwhelming
need to communicate with you. Be available to switch
directions quickly. Take in new information but stay
on task with your major projects.

- Monday - Mercury Parallel Jupiter, Mercury Semi-Square
Uranus. It's a happy and forward-looking day. Be willing
to span the distance between your past and present.

peaceful and following the well-trod path.

it is a great time to leap into the unusual. Innovation
abounds and people seem more approachable and more
comfortable than usual today.

- Thursday - Mercury Contra-Parallel Uranus, Venus
Semi-Square Saturn. Feelings are delicate now. Be
willing to work harder than normal for even less return.
Physical drives are strong now.

- Friday - Venus Quincunx Pluto, Sun Square Saturn.
Be willing to moderate plans to accommodate obstacles.

restlessness gives today a likely spark. Pay attention
to details as they emerge. You will be surprised at
how much can be accomplished today.
28th
- Sunday - Mars Square Uranus. Tempers explode. Some
people are just looking for an excuse to blow up.
Use your energy more constructively.
29th
- Monday - Avoid being defensive. Stay close to your
normal routines today.
30th
- Tuesday - Venus Parallel Mars, Sun Quincunx Jupiter.
Enjoy the company of others today. It's a great time
to clear up misunderstandings and to set some new
precedent.
31st
- Wednesday - Venus Parallel Saturn, Mars Semi-sextile
Saturn. We slow way down and check to see if our self-expression
really communicates our deeper feelings. It is natural
to hide our real feelings now, however it isn't very
helpful.
