ARIES
As Mars continues to activate
issues related to your foundations
in life whether at home, at work,
or in relationships, extra effort will be needed in
one or all of these areas as you adjust emotionally
and materially to the changes. Initiating new
projects and driving things forward is your
preference. Close relationships flow more joyfully
after the 8th which makes communications easier
and more productive and could trigger a happy
new chapter in your love life. Next month: Your
universe expands.

TAURUS
Your ruling planet Venus continues to
help iron out any difficulties in close
relationships especially with young ones
or animals or could usher in a new love interest. A good
period to team up with someone who may help you
with a new enterprise or creative/artistic endeavour.
Conflicts are always possible but should only serve to
sharpen your resolve. If there were no conflict, no
resistance, there would never be any new thought.
However you ARE advised to seek out the person, place
or pastime which most feels on your wavelength. Next
month: An intuitive move into better things.

GEMINI
The recent move of Saturn puts a
major focus on your foundations in
life; your home, family relationships,
even your personal history. This month, you’ll be
keeping an eye on finances and weighing the options.
Some past decisions may now feel burdensome - but
the moving finger writes, and having writ, moves
on. Better to see the past as a period of learning
about what you truly prefer. So accept where you
are now, and then get on with the fun of designing
your tomorrows more wisely. Next month: Two heads
are better than one!

CANCER
Mars in your sign raises energy levels
and gives you the drive to push things
through in areas close to your heart.
Any wall-flower tendencies will be banished and
replaced by a warrior who feels the confidence to
stick up for their rights or champions others. However,
suppressing the urge to assert yourself may attract
that energy from someone else. Compromise where
necessary. Discussions are beneficial and will get you
thinking how to improve your lot. Curb your tendency
to re-hash the past and put the focus on planning your
future! Next month: Dealing with the details.

LEO
Home, family, extended family or
community are highlighted and mostly
you’ll be enjoying your environment
and contacts with friends new and old. But that’s just
the surface. A prolonged transit of Mars is activating
unconscious patterns or dormant abilities, stirring up
underlying feelings and making you more sensitive, yes, but
also more imaginative, intuitive and idealistic. A brilliant
time to prepare a creative work, give service to someone
needy, develop your psychic abilities or meditate. Contact
with children, animals or nature will help realign you with
source. Next month: Feeling good!

back to top
VIRGO
A time to stay on your toes and take
advantage of opportunities as they
arise. In this highly progressive phase,
long-term goals seem closer. Friends, new and
old should be right behind you and any group or
organization to which you belong may put you in the
limelight. Old commitments or habits of undervaluing
yourself may feel burdensome as recent eclipses hint
that your life strategies are changing and you are
being given the chance to design yourself a future
with a more generous portion of freedom and joy.
Next month: Gathering together in a good way.

LIBRA
To give is to receive, right? And right
now you may feel compelled to work in
a more selfless way so as to finish things
off on some deeper level, and though the future may
not seem clear yet, what you’re doing is clearing a
path so that you can move on again in a new direction.
Mars is giving you tremendous drive even if it puts you
in a controversial position at times. Finances and basic
security are highlighted til the 22nd whilst after the
8th Venus encourages you to make the most of your
appearance - great for romance or self promotion.
Next month: A turning point

back to top
SCORPIO
With our nearest star; the Sun, in
your sign til the 22nd you should give
yourself space to reflect and recharge
doing things that make you feel good. An budding
opportunity for financial gain could be linked to
travel, foreign lands or educational activities. Your
mind will be clearer after the 10th when things
speed up and you’re busier. Feeling enthusiastic
and idealistic about an idea, hold the desire,
and through the power and grace of the infinite
universe, you’ll attract it to you. Next month: Past
effort pays off.

back to top
SAGITTARIUS
A time of self-evaluation is at hand.
Until the 22nd you’ll tend to withdraw
but will be happy to mull over ideas
with friends. Authority figures will be favourably
disposed and, after the 8th, teamwork, especially
group-work is highlighted and you may be discussing
joint expectations, and the management of your
resources. Mars is sensitising you to underlying
issues bringing you insights and with that a letting
go and then a realignment with who you are. But
you have to allow it! Next month: Confrontation
and renewal.

back to top
CAPRICORN
Teamwork and group gatherings are
highlighted during this progressive
phase. You should be flexible in your
thinking and innovative in your approach staying open
to all things which may expand your horizons or give you
new interests. A romantic connection could introduce
you to new ways of thinking and after the 8th you’ll
seem attractive to those in the position to give you
backing or support. A great time to sell something or
promote yourself. Partnerships might be contentious,
compromise or settlement is advised. Next month: The
beginning of a major cycle of growth.

back to top
AQUARIUS
The challenge of this period is how to
re-invent a support structure, financial
strategy or partnership commitment.
Whatever the context, in some area you’ll be letting go
of something you relied upon in the past. This month
it’s important to find or consolidate your current place
in the world, opening your mind to new ideas or simply
experimenting with fresh options. You’ll feel ready to
work hard to improve things no matter how lowly, or
unusual, the task. Self-maintenance is important and
you should put yourself into a sensible diet and fitness
program. Next month: ‘Moving and shaking’.

PISCES
Pisceans, especially those of you born
from the 3rd to the 6th March are,
like the butterfly, at some stage of
transformation. You’re finding that things you tolerated
in the past now feel stifling. That’s how caterpillars
evolve into butterflies. You could be at the ‘furry little
caterpillar feeling something is just out of reach’ stage
or, you are in the dramatic throes of ‘breaking out of
your pupa’ stage. And surprising everyone, not least
yourself, by a restless non-conformance to what others
have come to expect of you. And none of it was what
you thought possible! Next month: Recognition.
