This is the monthly newsletter from Astrodienst with a short overview of the current quality of time and news from our website www.astro.com.
For once, no Pluto themes are in the spotlight of this month’s newsletter. In March, the focus is on Venus, Mars, Mercury, and Neptune. They indicate an active and open atmosphere. A lunar eclipse in Libra at the end of the month calls for a sincere commitment to a stable foundation.
THE CURRENT QUALITY OF TIME
On March 1, the Pisces Sun forms a sextile to Jupiter in Taurus and is in a loose conjunction with Saturn and Mercury. Sincere thoughts and discussions are now on the agenda. Some prefer to remain silent and deal with spiritual issues. Social injustice and the suffering of the innocent are among the themes of the time.
At the same time, Venus in Aquarius forms a sextile to Chiron and the Moon’s North Node in Aries. On March 3, she reaches the square with Uranus in Taurus. The powerful desire for personal freedom now urges many people to take action and work to improve the situation. The Moon’s Node is conjunct Chiron until the middle of the month. Dealing with aggression and war could be at the top of the agenda during this time.
Mercury is in sextile to Uranus on the 4th, and Mars sextiles Chiron on the 7th. Business matters could now take unexpected turns that may well lead to success. However, you should assess the situation carefully and realistically before taking risks. Due to Mercury’s conjunction with Neptune on March 8, there is a risk of misperceiving reality or deceiving someone.
Mars in Aquarius squares Uranus on March 9, indicating a tendency to act out and cause accidents. Pay particular attention to your behavior during this time and be careful in sports and road traffic.
On March 10, the New Moon in Pisces sextiles Uranus. Mercury has just reached Aries and makes a sextile to Pluto in Aquarius. One day later, Venus enters Pisces. That creates a somewhat contradictory quality of time. On the one hand, there is a yearning for peace and tranquillity, but the underlying nervousness could feel disturbing. Instead of the longed-for peace, minor conflicts and general dissatisfaction could consequently characterize everyday life.
On March 17, the Sun conjuncts Neptune. Once again, we realize that not just performance counts but that trust and a sense of belonging are also prerequisites for a successful life.
Three days later, on March 20, the Sun enters Aries. It is now the beginning of spring in the Northern Hemisphere, and night and day are the same length. The Sun’s entry into Aries marks the start of the astrological year and signifies a new beginning, which we could celebrate.
At the same time, Mercury is conjunct Chiron and the Moon’s Node, and the Sun sextiles Pluto on the 21st. It is evident to all that we need to solve complex problems, but all options seem painful.
Venus conjuncts Saturn on the 22nd, indicating a willingness to find pragmatic solutions. Mars enters Pisces on March 23. His impulsiveness is now somewhat mellowed, focusing more attention on social issues.
On March 25, the Full Moon is at 5° Libra, linked to a lunar eclipse. It thematically picks up on recent events and calls for a serious examination of the changed conditions. A phase of consolidation now begins in which we must create a more stable situation.
It is advisable to tackle unfinished business without delay and clear the air, including in personal relationships. The quality of time of the upcoming solar eclipse on April 8 indicates that ignorance and denial of reality can become a real problem. Better tackle it now because the sextile of Venus and Uranus on March 28 offers excellent opportunities to get a deadlocked situation moving again.

THE PERSONAL QUALITY OF TIME
This month invites you to actively engage with those areas of your personality that, in depth psychology terms, lie in the “shadow” – the blind spot of your psyche. We usually give these topics a wide berth because they bring us into contact with our uncomfortable behaviors. However, consciously confronting your shadow can significantly improve your enjoyment and quality of life.
