There’s a lot of planetary news this month! On the 1st we have the Moon in Aries with Uranus triggering opposition to Jupiter and square to Pluto in Capricorn. Social upheaval and activism is likely to continue through March as well. With Jupiter involved in this configuration there is usually a benefit that emerges after the chaos. Hopefully, a message of justice will prevail.
Venus goes into her retrograde motion period at 13 degrees of Aries on March 4th. The planet of love, women, beauty, the arts, relationships, assets and money will be retrograde for 6 weeks, going back to 26 degrees of Pisces where she stations on April 15th. Retrograde motion always indicates an opportunity to re-do something, so pick some area you want to improve and work on it. Your aesthetic sense may change during this time and you may get the urge to get experimental with your looks or style. Mercury goes into Aries on the 14th bringing in a demanding style of communication.
Mars enters the sign of Taurus, ruled by Venus, on the 11th so we have an interesting dynamic of Mars in Venus’s sign and Venus in Mar’s sign, called mutual reception, which could make established couples’ dynamics flow with more harmony. While I generally do not advocate starting a new love relationship during a Venus retrograde period, this one may prove different, but still be aware that your desires during this time may not actually reflect what you really want and need at your core. Saturn is still close to the Galactic Center bringing in truths about our universe and Neptune is still in Pisces making us aware of our connections with water and the beyond the physical realms.

ARIES
March 21-April 20
With Venus, Mars and Uranus still together in your sign you are in for a bit of a wild ride. It is a lot like February’s energy but the Venus retrograde on the 4th will give you an opportunity to re-do something. If some plan was derailed at the end of February you can reconfigure or rearrange it during the next 6 weeks. Keep a cool head and spend some time alone to ground yourself, by the ocean if at all possible. Calm that overabundance of fire with some water! Your best days are the 1st, 27th and 28th.
TAURUS
April 21-May 20
This month has you working behind the scenes or trying to retreat a bit from the world as your ruling planet, Venus, goes into retrograde motion for 6 weeks. Major areas of concern will be your health, your work environment, money and your appearance. This would be an excellent time to begin a diet or start an exercise plan. Work on your goals but keep a low profile and get more rest. Mars enters your sign on the 11th so you will feel more grounded and centered after that time. Days to push for your agenda are the 2nd, 3rd, 29th and 30th.
GEMINI
May 21-June 21
You are still continuing the focus on your public image, improving professional contacts and forging ahead in your career. Creativity, having fun and children will also be a part of your attention as well. Be careful if you start a love affair during this Venus retrograde period as they usually don’t last. Gemini’s are not really known for their ability to commit, so a short term thing might be just what you need! Your power days are the 4th, 5th and 31st.
CANCER
June 22-July 22
There is a concentration of energy in both the mind expansion area of your life and your public image sector. Is it that you are contemplating taking a long trip to see where you want to work or are you already considering taking a job in a foreign country? Both scenarios could definitely be in play so at least update your resume and circulate it where it will get the most attention. Then figure out what you would need to take with you to give you the cozy feeling you like. Good days to get your way are the 6th and 7th.
LEO
July 23-Aug 22
This is still a time of soul searching and introspection to continue the vibes of February. It is also a time to have the difficult conversations about the end of life, i.e., money, wills, legacies and insurance. Get that out of the way and be honest and open about it. There is cosmic support for a long distance journey this month, though even if you go to a familiar place it won’t feel the same as you remember. Take your considerable spirit of adventure along and go with the flow. The 8th, 9th and daylight hours of the 10th are your stellar days.
VIRGO
Aug 23-Sept 22
If you are married, your spouse may be in for some upset around money, insurance, an investment or a financial upset of some kind. It’s out of your control and that will make you worried and uncomfortable. Over analyzing it will not change the facts so go with what is and move forward. There is some bright side to this situation so have faith and keep plugging away with what you can control—your outlook and attitude! Your best days are the 11th and 12th.
LIBRA
Sept 23-Oct 23
With 3 planets concentrating power in the relationship area of your life, the upheaval continues for at least the next 6 weeks. Venus retrograde will give a direction and time frame for the details to be worked out. What is out of balance will be corrected after Venus goes direct on April 15th and covers the degrees of Rx through May 19. There is something very liberating that will come out of this long drawn out drama, so have faith! Your immune system is weak this month so if you have to take some time off to rest and recover, absolutely do so. The 13th and 14th are your good days.
SCORPIO
Oct 24-Nov 22
Hopefully, you paid attention to last month’s energy in regards to taking better care of your health as the next 6 weeks offers another productive time to solidify those positive changes. You have prodigious amounts of will power and courage so take it on as a challenge to test yourself. Creativity, children, love affairs and having fun play a big part in your life this month as well so don’t forget to enjoy life! Good days to reward your self are the 15th, 16th and first half of the 17th.
SAGITTARIUS
Nov 23-Dec 21
Saturn, the cosmic task master, is at the Galactic Center in your sign all month giving you a kick in the rear to get your life in order. Now is the time to take directed action, to use discipline and to do the work in front of you. Family plays a big part of your life right now so you will have lots of contact with them as well as with your children. In fact, make plans to have some fun outings with your kids and just play a little. Best days for that are the 18th and 19th.
CAPRICORN
Dec 22-Jan 20
There is a major emphasis on your family of origin, your home, as well as your neighbors and neighborhood. Some disruption from a recent event is commanding your time and attention over the next 6 weeks. It’s also a time to redo some plan regarding your public image and career. With your ruling planet, Saturn, at the Galactic Center, taking some time to retreat from the business world would be a good way to connect with the wisdom developing in you. Stellar days for you are the 20th, 21st and 22nd.
AQUARIUS
Jan 21-Feb 20
Money, assets and communications will occupy a lot of time and energy in your life this month as some new plan is starting to develop. Being receptive is part of the key during the next 6 weeks as things group together, shift and then re-group. Siblings are important at this time in your life as well. Jupiter’s position in the mind expansion area of your chart is trying to open your mind to learn something new or broaden your experience in some positive way. Your best days are the 23rd and 24th.
PISCES
Feb 21-Mar 20
You will be paying lots of attention to money, spending habits and long term financial planning. In addition you may be considering changing up your image a bit with a new hair cut or color. Don’t go too dramatic as with Venus in retrograde, you might not like it long term. There’s a romantic vibe around you at the beginning of the month so I wouldn’t be surprised if you take an unexpected trip to a beautiful place with your significant other. Good days for you are the 1st, 25th and 26th.
Namaste,
Jeanne
