March 2009 Horoscopes by Terry Nazon, Astrologer

[Guest guest]

It's a new month and in the universe's amazing way the outer planet's

and nodes move one step or should I say on degree towards change.

Saturn retrograde in Virgo makes a move from 19* to 18*, the Lunar

Nodes move from 9* Aquarius and Leo where they have been for 2 ½

months to 8* and Pluto takes his step too, to 3*, all at the

beginning of March, is it a coincidence? Nothing in our universe is

by chance, all is done in a cosmic dance that prepares us and fine

tunes us; all of us.

Yet, it seems that March is practically devoid of challenging squares

that give us the opportunity to overcome " something " . Instead, we

see most of the inner or personal planets moving into the mutable

sign of Pisces along with the planet of sudden change, Uranus. Even

Uranus, though is opposing Saturn the planet of karma, causing low

spirits, frustrations and delays. The mutable planets of Gemini,

Virgo, Sagittarius and Pisces, adapt easily to quickly changing

events or circumstances, and thrive on things being fast paced; but

create chaos and drama when bored. With Saturn in Virgo retrograde

opposing Pisces, we could have fewer opportunities for new

opportunities and change. The universe tries to focus our attention

on taking care of what already exists. The sign of Virgo rules

health, jobs and worry. The sign of Pisces is as you know the last

Sun sign of our Zodiac. It rules a time to finish what you started,

pay debts, pay karma, and not run away from your problems and

responsibilities. It's a time to be self sacrificing, to do

charitable acts, and be kind, seek spirituality, healing, and do your

soul searching. Above all lower your expectations of others, just

for a little bit of time. Take care or tend to what you already

have, your home, your yard, your job, or your family, for example.

Until you prove you can take care of what you have the universe won't

give you anything new or any new challenges. Until you complete the

task in front of you no new responsibilities are given. So excel at

whatever job you have in front of you, wherever you live, and what

your responsibilities are. In that way you prepare yourself, for

what is to come. Heal your body, your mind and above all your soul.

On March 20th it's the Spring Equinox, also called the Vernal

Equinox. It marks a turning point for us where the amount of

daylight becomes longer and longer, and begins with a day of equal

day and night. The Moon moves out of the way and is at its farthest

point from the Earth, as the Sun takes over. The Sun rules

leadership, kings and the soul. The amount of light we are subject

to becomes brighter and for longer intervals. It is the beginning

of the Zodiac cycle, which begins with the Sun entering the sign of

Aries. As the Sun moves into the sign of its exaltation, Aries, it

marks the official beginning of spring. Trees turn green, the grass

comes alive, seeds sprout, animals come out of hibernation, mate and

we all feel energized and like we can take on the world. Our ancient

fore fathers celebrated this event with festivals and ceremony. It's

a time to put your plans in motions and feel alive once more! It

happens at the end of a rather boring month, when we feel housebound

and are trying feverishly to finish tasks, get out spring cleaning

done, and all of a sudden we awake from our slumber! Ironically in

the Southern hemisphere they are celebrating the Fall Equinox and

preparing for their winter, slowing down, experiencing less Sun

light , and getting prepared for the harvest and then their winter.

Venus the planet of love and relationships is retrograde, suggesting

a time for doing something, or being something for someone else, to

please someone else or others, not ourselves.
