Powerful sky
The Sun transits in trine in the ninth field in Pisces , where it joins the New Moon on March 19th. Mars enters Pisces on March 2nd and remains in trine until April 9th, while Mercury is already in Pisces and is forming the retrograde phase : to be precise, it will be in retrograde motion from February 26th to March 21st and will then continue its trine until April 15th. Venus on the other hand, remains in Pisces until March 6th, after which it moves into dissonance in the tenth field in Aries . As for the slower planets, Neptune and Saturn have recently entered Aries and involve the first degrees with their square ; the second decan hosts the conjunct of Jupiter , while the third is still involved in the sextile of Uranus in Taurus . Overall it is a powerful sky, particularly effective on days like February 18th, 19th, 26th and 27th, and March 7th, 8th, 17th and 18th. Some uncertainty is possible on February 20 and 21, March 5, 6, 12, 13, 19 and 20.
Legacy to be transformed
As we've seen, the transit of Neptune and Saturn in a dissonant position in Aries directly affects, for now, only those born during the solstitial period, with the Sun at the beginning of the sign... but even if you're one of them, you shouldn't be worried. Indeed, before hypothesizing its possible manifestations, and instead of being frightened by it, everyone should take advantage of Mercury 's trine in retrograde phase to reflect on the related transits in Pisces that have just concluded, on what they have offered and taught you, and perhaps hypothesize the best way to transform their legacy. If we think of Neptune , for example, we're obviously talking about a very long transit that can't be easily summarized, but one thing must be said: in its domicile in Pisces it has likely amplified the idealistic dimension, while from Aries it will ask you to take action, in the knowledge that no ideal can be merely dreamed or imagined, but must be acted upon. In this sense, Saturn 's participation will be a further invitation to concreteness, so that desires and hopes aren't lost in utopias but rather converge in a truly constructive momentum. In short, it's about translating theory into viable directions and achievable goals; which won't always be easy, perhaps not even immediately rewarding; after all, reality is also made up of commitment, revision, and sacrifice. This Mercury retrograde could already suggest some useful adjustments to your plans.
The right motivation
It's a very interesting month for work, during which you'll have the opportunity to sort out some complicated matters, identifying effective strategies or making changes. Your approach, in collaborations or negotiations, may be more effective if you demonstrate a greater willingness to mediate, adapt, perhaps even agreeing to soften your position. Defending your rights and needs is obviously legitimate, but it shouldn't deprive you of engaging with diverse points of view, some of which can be integrated and not always antagonistic. Furthermore, being careful of certain instinctive reactions, linked to pride rather than objectivity, will be particularly necessary starting March 6th, when Venus will be in dissonance; this is especially true in relationships with partners or relatives. Overall, it remains a promising month, even in terms of personal prestige and financial gain. Young students can rediscover their motivation by reevaluating certain choices or even changing direction, as well as by incorporating new challenges and growth experiences. Romantic relationships are also going through an important phase, with increased passion and a renewed desire (and pleasure) to share interests, dreams, and emotions. If there have been disagreements, arguments, or communication problems, it's a good idea to take advantage of the first few weeks to resolve and clarify issues, fostering a more intimate and profound dialogue. In some cases, a couple's project, geared toward a shared future, will help revitalize the relationship.
First decade
The Mars trine , from March 2nd to 15th, strengthens your willpower and supports you in defending your values, needs, and desires. Considering that Neptune and Saturn have just begun their quadrature, there's no need to rush into decisions, act impulsively, or take risks or push too hard. One step at a time, in clear directions, will bring greater stability.
Second decade
While Jupiter continues its conjunct , Venus is in trine from February 18th to 26th, and Mercury also returns to trine with retrograde motion from March 4th to 15th. Conversely, Mars 's trine will begin on March 15th. It's an intense and stimulating period, perfect for making new experiences and meeting new people, including traveling. Exciting encounters are not to be ruled out...
Third decade
Mercury 's trine will affect you from February 20th to March 4th (retrograde from the 26th), and Venus 's from February 26th to March 6th. Meanwhile, Uranus is still in a favorable sextile and encourages change, perhaps even significant decisions. You can count on intense creativity to make exciting plans, both at work and for the future of your relationships.
