March 2012 horoscopes for Aries
Today, February 28th, the 12th Mercury starts to retrograde. If you want to get well informed about Mercury retrograde, please read my article about it.
March will be such a complex but interesting month!
In the middle of such a chaotic time in politics and global financial turmoil, we may experience a little prospect of recovery or at least a momentary rise in our hopes, thanks to Jupiter, the lord of prosperity and good fortune and Pluto the transformer and powerful planet, beautifully aspecting each other, for the first two weeks of March.
This is the third and last meeting of Jupiter and Pluto, which have been on and off since July 2011. The area where Jupiter is traveling in your chart is where you can see the light of hope.
For you Aries, this blissful aspect will impact your career and financial gain; you may launch a very successful project you have been working on since last year, which you can bet will be a smash!
If you need the help of investors or partners to assist with financial aid…you got it dear Aries. A trip related to business could also be in the works for you during this time.
Mercury the planet that rules transportation, travel, communication, learning, and the media, is retrograde from March 12th until April 4th. Mars and Saturn are retrograde as well, so we have to adjust our timing with the Cosmos; in other words, be patient and don’t hurry on your projects, but instead go over them as many times as is needed to make them absolutely perfect.
Success and improvement will come... slowly but surely.
And here comes the Equinox, representing the first day of the year in astrology and we are eager to start something new.
Did you ever try to drive your car with the hand brake pulled?
The car engine is on making that revving noise, the wheels are spinning but the car doesn’t move. That’s the feeling we are going to have in all activities in the month of March.
Mercury enters Aries on the 2nd and we tend to think less and talk more. We can get stuck in trying to prove our points of view. It’s healthier to stop shouting and quit proclaiming truths that are really only opinions.
Inner wisdom comes in silence! It is an excellent time for self-reflection.
However use the first 10 days of March, to get your tasks taken care of, like buying electronics if needed, traveling, moving, relocating, launching projects or presenting a business proposition before Mercury goes retrograde on the 12th.
Mercury remains in Aries until March 23rd.
Mercury the thinker and the communicator of the zodiac in your sign, dear Aries, will benefit your communication and learning skills. It’s a great time to learn something that could improve your career. You will be sort of wired up to all sorts of communication channels during this time.
Venus the lady that rules love, beauty, the arts and luxury is entering the sign of Taurus, the most sensual and steady sign, today the 5th.
We don’t want superficial love, we want a stable relationship.
The arts will benefit from this time, which is lasting until April 3rd. We can see improvements in the cosmetic industry, like the launching of an amazing product or an FDA approval of a beauty contraption that can improve something relating to the human body.
We've got a languid demeanor that makes everything we do seem sensual.
Money can buy all the beautiful things life can offer… and you dear Aries will take this very seriously.
Despite your shopaholic tendencies, you could make some dough in the arts; if this is already your field, you are lucky! Venus can give you great opportunities for making money using your talent.
But on the 3rd, you can get quite mad! The Sun is opposing your planet Mars and you can lose your temper for any unimportant reason or even for a gentle blow to your face.
Express your ideas dear Aries, but why do you have to be so aggressive? Everybody has his or her points of view; this is the beauty of life! Diversity and freedom to express!
On the 8th, when the Sun rises, at 5:40 AM, there’s a full moon in Virgo, very close to Mars retrograde in Virgo as well, creating such a tense morning that will continue on for the next 7 days.
Let’s look at the big picture instead of picking the unimportant details and making a big deal of it all. Stick with what is really meaningful for you.
This full moon wants us to connect with the wholeness, the universal love and to the people dearest to us. Everything else goes, but the feeling of love is eternal.
This full moon is in your area of health and work dear Aries, and with your planet Mars on your side, you just feel like you want to stop doing anything that is harmful to your health. You crush that out cigarette and decide to quit smoking, open your refrigerator and throw out all the junk food… you stand in front of you boss and say, “I can’t take how you have been treating me anymore, I quit!”
You burst forth with emotional declarations about everything and anything that you have been contemplating for a long time.
And if you don’t make a spontaneous effort to be healthier, dear Aries, Mars retrograding in Virgo in your area of health could surprise you with a condition that has been developing because of your lack of attention to your health.
This is the right time to start being conscious about what you put in your body.
Today the 12th Mercury starts to retrograde. If you want to get well informed about Mercury retrograde, please read my article at: Mercury retrograde.
Mercury is retrograde in Aries, YES YOUR SIGN dear Aries, the sign of action and energy. Mars the planet that also rules action and energy is also retrograde in Virgo since January 23rd and remains there until April 13th.
Mars is in Mercury’s ruling sign (Virgo) and Mercury is in Mars ruling sign (Aries); as we say in astrology, they are in mutual reception, which is when each planet is in the sign ruled by the other.
To understand what a mutual reception is, think of time-share house-swaps: you have an apartment in New York City and want to summer in Brazil; someone in Brazil wants to come to New York at the same time. The deal is made, you live in each other’s homes, getting very close together without ever meeting, and the mutual exchange touches both lives.
This fact will empower both planets and the retrograde action will be much stronger, which could create quite a frustrating energy. Currently, we can’t count on the energy we need to initiate something or to stay in action. We may experience problems in transportation, travel, railways, flying, in sending correspondence, computer related issues and most activities that include action, such as sports, protests and decision-making.
The working class can be impaired by things like having to wait for any measures or reform action about to be taken in their favor.
With everything, it feels like the whole world is in slow motion…
If we insist in acting fast and getting our projects done, we may become very frustrated because, IT’S NOT GOING TO HAPPEN AT THIS TIME!
“As above, so is below.”
We have to take this time to perfect out projects, redo them, review them, return to places we have been to before, and reconnect with people we haven’t seen for long time. We ought to research deeply subjects of our interest, and most importantly, we have to be patient and let the results unfold at their own pace.
Step back! Relax, Mercury goes direct on April 4th and Mars on April 13th and then you will have the best and most perfect and precise project or decision organized or made, ready to be launched.
In other words dear Aries, this retrograding process is all in your beautiful persona area, it’s made in heaven and it’s made just for you.
It may not feel so heavenly at first, but it will help you to take a look back at many issues you have been neglecting or taking for granted and give you a second chance to re-think, re-do and make it perfect.
It’s a time to review all your life goals, your work projects, your intentions, your health, your image and status quo.
You can re-establish everything you want and I promise you’ll feel great about the new YOU when this time has passed, which is going to be much milder from March 23rd when Mercury goes back into Pisces.
Mars will remain retrograde until April 13th, and after that you have the green light to make anything happen.
Jupiter and Pluto, makes there last trine out of three, between March 8th and the 18th, and opportunities can knock on our door…
It’s a fantastic time to review your investments or make adjustments to your savings plan. Unfortunately this beautiful energy won’t be in full range, because we can’t count on Mars and Mercury, which will be asleep and slow.
For you dear Aries, this encounter of these powerful planets is right in your area of money and career, and with Mars and Mercury retrograding around you it’s a fantastic energy to release opportunities and help you to see what mistakes you have made that could be affecting the progress of your career. Something from your past may come back to you as a tool to open your eyes. Be attentive and aware at this time; the opportunities could be disguised where you least expect to find them.
But just the fact that they are retrograde and under this fortunate transit, may protect us from something harmful that could have been worse if we didn’t have this blessed aspect and the retrograding planets.
This planetary configuration could cause something like that lucky unsuccessful attempt to bomb Times Square a couple years ago when the police caught the bomber in time and avoided the worst.
The 14th is a super lucky day. This is one of those days when couples fall in love, the stock market rallies, we hear good news in a broadcast, and our hopes are raised. If you want to pick a day to have an important meeting, to set a date with someone special or to just have fun, this is THE day!
Actually this is your day dear Aries! Love is sent to you in everyway. It’s a good day to go on a date with an ex or someone from your past, or a friend who has the potential to become your lover.
Venus is teaming up with Jupiter and Pluto, (and don’t forget Jupiter is in beautiful aspect with Pluto) and Mars is also in a fantastic angle with Jupiter and Pluto!
There aren’t many days like this one very often; mark this day on your calendar and share your experience with me in my blog, Yes! I’m 58; I want to know what kind of lucky experiences you had today.
You may be amazed dear Aries, with an opportunity that will knock on your door today, but it may not be so evident; it may be masked or related to your past.
The sun enters the sign of Aries today the 20th.
Happy birthday dear Aries!
This year your birthday will come under Mercury retrograding if your birthday falls before March 24th, If that’s the case, it’s an indication that you may have to review some issues in your life this year and may have to redo something in terms of a project or decision sometime this year.
The Equinox is coming! Plan something for the Equinox in advance and enjoy the fast trip to reaching your goals.
Equinox happens twice a year, springtime and in the fall. It’s when the sun crosses the plane of the earth’s equator and day and night are of equal length.
The day the sun enters the sign of Aries, (same day as the Equinox) is seen by astrologers as the beginning (first day) of the astrological year. Aries is the first sign of the zodiac; Aries is the initiator, the pioneer, and always ready for action.
Aries' motto is "Ready to start”
When the sun enters the sign of Aries, the universe is open for new beginnings. There’s this energy of initiation which is appropriate for starting new projects, new routines, a new diet, a new exercise program, to launch a new book, an art exhibition, to change locations, to start a new job or a new life.
This energy is comparable to going sailing when there is a tailwind, and you don’t have to row, but just head the boat in the direction you want to go and enjoy the sailing without much effort.
However with Mars and Mercury retrograde the tailwind sailing can be replaced by the pulled brake while the foot is on the pedal effect. We should hold off on initiating anything today, but we can set new goals, make our resolutions for the year, or plan something to be implemented after April 13th. It’s a time to perfect our projects.
Happy Equinox dear Aries!
The new moon on the 22nd in Aries marks the real first new moon of the new astrological year.
We can propose a change in ourselves, in our behavior and in how we approach our tasks more efficiently, how we connect with others, and how we bring out our creativity.
Here is more evidence that during this time, it’s all about you dear Aries; you are at center stage, and you are connected with the Cosmos.
Again because your planet Mars is retrograde and Mercury in Aries is retrograde as well, you should not start anything today; however you can set up a plan for the year, you can write down your projects, make a wish board, set the goals you want to reach in 2012, the tools you are going to use and the path you are going to follow.
Start up after April 12th. Make the next new moon, on April 21st your starting day!
On the 23rd, Mercury goes back to Pisces until April 16th. Pisces represents mystical dimensions beyond what is immediately available to our five senses of this physical world, so things can be quite confusing, when dealing with mundane subjects…
Some can follow the wrong GURU during this time thinking he is the salvation for your soul, only to find out later he is only an impostor.
Mercury will be on your area of spirituality, so it’s a good time to meditate, reflect and re-view your life’s’ goals.
On the 24th, the Sun and Uranus in your sign, make a spectacular conjunction (same degree) and you Aries, will have one of those unexpected days, when almost everything could happen. You may decide to change your hair color or just shave your head bald, you may be called for that job you are so waiting for or you may bump into an ex and he or she sets up a date with you…. Let’s say you are a couch potato and today you decide to get a membership at a club, and buy new sneakers and exercising clothing (If it’s the case go to this amazing Brazilian website, www.balancefitwear.com). This is the day to be yourself!
Remember! You are unique! No one can be you. There will be something that only you can do, a path that only you can walk, and a story that only you can write.
Have a great month and happy new astrological year!
