March 2025
The sensitive, dreamy, not always realistic Pisces Sun will move through a final muddled trip with serious Saturn and vague Neptune holding sway together. By next year’s Pisces Sun this difficult balancing act will be over.
This month Mars in Cancer will add a touch of zest as it trines the Sun lifting vitality and courage. Mercury and Venus in Aries will also help to keep enthusiasm and exuberance high. Though a downbeat Saturn on the 12th followed by an evasive Neptune on the 19th will produce a sense of dither and delay.
Two eclipses will make the second half of the month a time of anticipation with the pressure for change mounting as old securities are pulled away.
The Virgo Full Moon on the 14th forms a Total Lunar Eclipse which will be uncertain and bring confusion. Then the partial Solar Eclipse on the 29th in Aries could be accident prone, violent or physically expressive in other ways. (See Eclipses).
After the 20th the Aries Sun, harbinger of new beginnings, will prompt new initiatives, not always sensible or practical, but go ahead.
