Happy birthday!
The Sun transits your sign, conjuncting the New Moon on March 19th. Venus is already in your sign and will exit it on March 6th, while Mars will enter on the 6th and remain in conjunction until April 9th. Mercury is also in your sign and is forming a retrograde phase : it will be retrograde from February 26th to March 20th and will continue its conjunct until April 15th. As for the slower-moving planets, Jupiter in Cancer is still trine your second decan and Uranus in Taurus is sextile your third. In short, it's a generous sky celebrating you! February 19th, 26th, and 27th, and March 8th, 14th, 17th, and 18th are especially worth enjoying and making the most of. Some more challenging moments are possible on February 24th and 25th, and March 3rd, 4th, 10th, and 11th.

Between Mercury and Mars

As we've seen, the Sun in your sign is accompanied by swift planets, but it's Mercury in retrograde phase , that especially commands attention. Indeed, its retrograde motion is what characterizes it, partially modifying (in intensity or quality) its possible expressions: from a planet of communication and movement, it could become an invitation to pause for reflection, a stimulus to reflection, an encouragement to listen and not just think or speak... with an openness to subtle, intimate, and precious insights. In this sense, Mars could bring a different and somewhat contradictory energy, being a planet linked to willpower, decision-making, and action, which is ill-suited to an introspective phase. The difficulty (but also the opportunity) will be in finding an agreement, a balance, not so much a middle ground as a meeting point between Mercury retrograde and Mars direct; let's say a collaboration. This could mean seeking behavioral modes that are consistent with your feelings, but not passive. On the other hand, the legitimate need to reflect doesn't necessarily mean you should isolate yourself or abstain from engaging with others. There may be issues that need to be fully understood, and therefore require more time, but in other situations you may already have clarifications and conclusions that you can share with those involved or translate into action. In any case, don't let haste or mood influence you.

Construction necessity
The reflections I mentioned above could affect your work in different ways. For example, some of you may be evaluating proposals or collaborations, or you may have interesting projects in mind but still need to launch them, consider the cost-benefit balance, and possibly obtain authorizations or funding. It's possible that certain negotiations may slow down, pending agreements or further data. In short, it's probably not a question of ideas, creativity, or willpower, but rather of operational tools, resources, or timelines that need to be better defined. This is all fairly normal, even appropriate, although a bit irritating for those who would like to move forward more quickly. It's also true that Jupiter will return to direct motion on March 11th, making it decidedly more effective; Mercury itself will turn direct on the 20th, so I believe the entire period between late February, March, and April will be worth making the most of, with stages of progressive development and growing results. Don't forget that your Neptune has moved into the more concrete second field and is still conjunct the equally concrete Saturn ! This constructive need is also expressed in some ways in relationships, starting with couples, where a more honest and profound dialogue can help you regain motivation and momentum, integrate mutual expectations, and ultimately strengthen the bond, based on shared values and a shared commitment.

First decade
Mars transits your Sun from March 2nd to 15th, Mercury takes its place on the same day (it will then remain in conjunction until April 7th, moving direct again from March 20th). It's important to channel your willpower into targeted, reasoned actions, moving forward but without rushing. There may be some work to be done, some clarification, even in work relationships.

Second decade
Mercury begins its retrograde motion on February 26th and will reconcile from March 4th to 15th. Mars will also begin its conjunct on the 15th. The first weeks of the month therefore seem to be suited to reflection and review, perhaps preparing you to make important decisions. If you need to make requests or proposals, the second half of March will be better.

Third decade
The astrological month begins with Mercury already on your Sun (it will remain in conjunction until March 4th, retrograde from February 26th), while Venus is in conjunct from February 26th to March 6th. It doesn't seem like a good time to take action or dare yet, but you may enjoy greater openness in your social and romantic relationships, including at work.
