Beware the ides of March!

By Judith | March 20, 2023

Beware the Ides of March, and try not to take its revelations too seriously! 

 

Let me break it down for you–7 planets will will change signs in March, 2023 (the only planets staying put are Jupiter, Uranus and Neptune):

 

  1. March 2nd, the messenger planet Mercury moves into the deep waters of Pisces to stir up mistakes and memories of the past. Which he’ll do using your vivid imagination and heightened ability to visualize your thoughts. We’re highly clairvoyant, but may not know it.

 

  1. March 7th, Saturn, the big guy who comes around every 29 years, moves into Pisces at 5:35 PM PST where he’ll complete an evolutionary journey that he began January 28, 1994. It’s a time of clearing the decks by letting go of the past so we can reinvent ourselves and renew our lives when Saturn moves into Aries, February 13, 2026.

 

March 7th is also the Virgo Full Moon at 4:40 AM PST. About 1 hr. before Saturn’s shift.

  1. March 16th the goddess of love, Venus, moves into her exalted and most sensuous sign, Taurus. We’re feeling more affectionate and very touchy-feely which combines with sudden infatuations on March 30th when she meets up with the god of lightning, Uranus. Sparks are flying! We’re looking to our relationships for steadfastness and loyalty. We’re artists, looking to create more beauty in the world.

 

  1. March 18th, messenger Mercury will make another shift this time into the Innovative fires of Aries. A fabulous time to start something new, especially when Mercury catches up with jovial Jupiter on March 27th.

 

  1. The Sun enters the sign of pioneering Aries on March 20th, the first day of spring. Spring fever (is it only hay fever?) brings restlessness is the kick to shake off winter’s doldrums and put yourself in action–like the rooster who crows at the break of dawn!* 

6. The really big show comes March 23rd, when powerful Pluto, lord of the underworld, moves into the sign of airey Aquarius–finishing the earthquakes under wall street, dictators, and equal rights he began in 2008. This current shake-up will bring revolutionary shifts and declarations of freedom similar to Pluto’s rise into Aquarius in 1777, which brought the French Revolution, the American Revolutionary War, the Constitution and the Bill of Rights. This time around Pluto brings tremendous scientific discoveries and worldwide transformations–“We are the world!” 

 

  1. Finishing up these seven planetary transitions is Warrior Mars entering the sign of Cancer on March 25th, 2023. This is a cautionary tale, since it brings anger and emotional frustrations into the open. The degree of difficulties we will face is determined by how much rage has been repressed (and we all have it). Notice events in your life that were troublesome beginning around the time Mars was in Cancer in May and June of 2019 and May of 2021.

Four Key Meetups

Who are the main characters on stage for March 2023? There are 4 key meetups between planets:

 

  1. The most delightful of all meetups comes March 1st when Venus in Aries meets with jovial and generous Jupiter. 

 

  1. March 27th, Mercury in Aries makes a meet-up conjunction with Jupiter. 

 

  1. A big word of caution on March 14th and March 16th when Warrior Mars in Gemini is part of two squares. this could be a turning point day triggered by internal restlessness and tension. 

 

  1. March 30th, Venus in Taurus meets up with Uranus. 

 

Here’s the really Good News! The Web of Mutuality is fully formed! Albeit underground. The strength of its horizontal rhizomes is already sending out new shoots. Being subterranean is not only its strength but also its safety. It lasts and lasts and lasts! Symbolically the rhizome is your unconscious mind where the roots of your destiny are stored. Roots that grow up, not down. Inside that vault is your buried treasure. Your heretofore hidden talents and the sure knowledge of who you really are–a magnificent messenger of Light. Your magnificence is like the blooming of a Giant Himalayan Lily, a glorious plant that takes 7 years to grow roots before its first bloom–which will grow to nine feet tall!
