March 2026
Starting on a Lunar Eclipse (Full Moon) in Virgo, it will be a month for making key decisions, weighing options, deciding on balance and at times wobbling from one opposite attitude to the other. Reactions may be emotionally directed since the Sun plus Mars are in watery Pisces and Jupiter is in Cancer. There will be good news around the 5th with luck flowing in.
Thereafter Venus moving into fiery Aries from the 6th will add a touch of flair and adventure to proceedings though the self-protective mood will continue in the background. Saturn and Neptune in Aries will flitter across Venus but won’t see major action until later in the month. Along the way they will be hinting at a need for self-reliance as well as sympathy for those in need.
In the final ten days the Aries Sun will cross Neptune for confusion and indecision on the 22nd and then hit get-a-grip Saturn with a helpful back-in-control Pluto. Though there may be a bleak mood as the month draws to a close with Saturn sextile Pluto. Venus moving into Taurus on the 30th will bring a promise of indulgence ahead.

OUTER PLANETS
Jupiter in Cancer from June 9 2025 until June 30 2026 – focused on family and home, expansive, emotional, sympathetic, easy going.
Saturn: Saturn in Aries from May 25th 2025 for the first time in 29 years. There will be a need for grit, self-reliance, initiative, patience and resourcefulness. It can lead to selfish behaviour on the part of some and a lack of cooperation since the tendency will be to pursue an independent course. Though Neptune close by may soften its effect bringing more sympathy for those in need.
Uranus: From March 2019 until July 2025 in Taurus – changing attitudes to handling of money, possessions and resources especially in agriculture and our attitude to nature. Into Gemini from July 7 2025 to November 2025 – lively discussions, new ideas, alternative approaches, fast-moving, outspoken. There will be a retrograde back into Taurus from November 2025 to April 2026, after which it stays in Gemini until 2032.
Neptune in Aries from from late April 2025 till 2039 (with a brief retrograde back into Pisces from late October to late January 2026) can prompt individuals to submit themselves to a bigger cause than themselves. In the past it has led to an increase in individual rights and advances for disenfranchised people. When back in Pisces it reprises the mood of the past decade plus with conspiracy theories running rampant.
Pluto in Aquarius from late November 2024 till 2044. Can be enlightening, fosters social movements and equality, changes outlooks and attitudes, brings intense discussions and scientific advances.
