March 2012 horoscope for Gemini
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.
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, your ruler planet is quite aggressive under the energies of Aries, so for you dear Gemini, this energy can add more mental activity and you can be more forceful in getting your tasks done and in handling your interests.
Use this time to learn, to go back to school, to read all the books available to you that can give you more knowledge and expand your mind. If you want some suggestions buy my book, “Yes I’m 58,” where I have a list of interesting books to expand your vision and the secrets of wellbeing and beauty.
Make sure you respect other’s opinions dear Gemini, after all, we are all right, based on our own points of view and experiences. Sift the good and discard the waste.
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.
Venus is going to a hidden area in your chart and you tend to be more secluded, away from social events, because you need this time alone to evaluate your feelings and what you expect from love.
However your generosity will be enhanced and you can use this time to help a charity or raise funds for an institution.
But your heart may beat for someone unavailable or not appropriate for you.
The second event of the day is that your ruler, Mercury will team up with unconventional Uranus, in your area of friends and pleasure and anything can happen, from a last minute invitation for an amazing party to a surprise proclamation of love (from an unexpected person as well).
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.
For you dear Gemini, it’s a time to balance energy between your work and public demands with your home, family and property matters. You may be finishing a vital work job or a huge home project and both sides of your life need focus, but during this full moon, your family and home will grab your full attention and this is the side you have to prioritize.
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, 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 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.
For you dear Gemini, who is more than used to dealing with Mercury retrograde, because he is your ruler planet, this is going to be another time when you have to reflect upon your life goals and reconstruct or reassess your dreams, because this is the area Mercury is transiting now. During this time you may also reconnect with some friends you haven’t seen for a long time and have lots of fun with.
From March 25th and until April 4th, it’s time to re-do any career project, but don’t launch it or present it to your boss, (until you’re done perfecting and reviewing it); then you can launch it in the market after April 4th (to be safe, wait 7 more days).
Mars is also asking you to connect with relatives you haven’t seen for many years and check in with them and show some affection or even take care of them.
Don’t even think about purchasing a property until April 13th but making a reform in your home is OK.
Girls, if you are thinking of getting a breast implant, wait until after July 3rd.
Jupiter and Pluto, makes their 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.
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.
This amazing encounter of Jupiter and Pluto will take place “behind the scenes” or privately. You can count on angels and higher spirits’ help, you are more likely to act from your subconscious mind, so you may act in a very subtle way, in ways we call “a coincidence” but it’s nothing but a call from your subconscious mind, so without planning or programming you could be in the right place, when that person you need to contact can be found. You can do the right thing without consciously thinking about it. In other words you work in your favor without even knowing it.
Issues related to shared money, your partner or spouse’s, or money from a divorce settlement could be in your favor during this time.
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!
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.
“Giving is true having”. --Charles Spurgeon
Sometimes dear Gemini, giving whether it be of time, affection, advise, gifts, money or just a hug is one of life’s best pleasures. The more you give the more you will receive; there’s a time to give and a time to receive. This is the time for you to be the giver, and there’s nothing more rewarding than giving something to someone who needs.
If you have a lot give money and if you have little give a hug or your love.
“We cannot hold a torch to light another's path without brightening our own”. --Ben Sweetland
The same transit you had on the 4th is back on stage on the 18th and again you have surprise parties, you may meet old friends in an unexpectedly ways and you may rethink about your future goals.
The sun enters the sign of Aries today the 20th. The Equinox is coming! Plan something for the Equinox in advance and enjoy the fast trip to reaching your goals.
The sun has been lighting your area of career and in the last 4 weeks you have been super busy running your business and establishing a great reputation. Now it’s time to have fun; the sun moves to your sector of friends and dreams.
It’s time to make your wish board and mentalize all your dreams and wishes.
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 is 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.
On the 21st the sun which just entered the sign of Aries is teaming up with Mercury your ruler planet, making this day very creative; the communication is wide open, you may contact dearest friends you haven’t seen for a long time or you may get to meet some celebrities at a special party you were invited to.
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.
During this new moon dear Gemini, you are allowed to make your wishes for the year. The GODS and ANGELS are smiling at you and waiting for your command. Your wishes will come true, but you have to tell the universe what you want exactly. I promise they will hear you.
This is a time to get to know new friends, eccentric people and have the kind of fun you haven’t have since you were a teenager.
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 act in your area of career, so be very attentive and patient but don’t expect to see huge progress until after April 4th.
The Sun and Uranus join the same energy of Aries on the 24th, emphasizing the affirmation of the New Moon in Aries that we are unique and special.
There will be something that only you can do, a path that only you can walk, and a story that only you can write.
Bet on it!
Have a great month and happy new astrological year!
