Neptune moving away from Aquarius into Pisces means that you have now left a 14 year period where issues to do with working for the greater good and working in a collective context have been an ideal in your life. Friends have been inspiring and creative and/or spiritual, and your desire to blend with people and to have soul-mates has been strong. This has been a good journey and has brought greater compassion and empathy into your life from others to you and vice versa. It has also helped you to stop and consider the power of your heart and soul a little more. Your strong competitive drive and instincts will have been mellowed.
From Pisces, which he enters on the 3rd for the next 13 years, this puts Neptune’s energy into your solar 12th house. This is the house of the past, the unconscious, the very private and the escapist. It is also the house of behind-the-scenes activities. Neptune in the 12th house may seem quite a dumb note on the face of it, but in effect, it may make you feel a little more escapist or possibly bring a feeling of being in exile and far from home on a foggy night. A need to connect with your higher self will be important if you are to avoid a sense of loneliness. The need to be of use to others in some way is also a vital keynote for the next 13 years. This is an excellent position for those who give unconditionally, particularly for those who work for those who are in some way limited or afflicted. Neptune equals cosmic debts and when in the 12th house one can feel in some way the need (often unconsciously) to pay off some karma. There will be an increased intuitive link with the unconscious, and mystical yearnings become strong, but privacy and seclusion will be necessary for spiritual inner search. It is not impossible that there will be memories of previous incarnations, particularly when asleep. Poetic, musical and artistic sensitivity will be felt as a very great need and at the least these interests can be pursued happily as a hobby. However, avoid neurotic preoccupation with problems of the past and withdrawal for its own sake. Don’t dwell on the past or dream of the future -- live in the present.
This is indeed Aquarius’ month and therefore there will be an emphasis for many of you on friendships, goals, leadership abilities and working with others for the collective good and for what you believe in.
Before the 14th, Mercury, also in Aquarius, is adding intellectual insight and excellence for all those born after March 27th and this can be used most effectively when involved with teamwork. After the 14th when Mercury moves into Pisces as indeed does the Sun after the 19th, there will be a much greater need to retreat and commune with your soul, and with Neptune in Pisces too, you may start to feel a very definite shift of priorities in life as indeed we will all start to feel to some extent. If others seem to be speaking a different language to you, that’s OK, you need to be speaking to yourself currently.
Before the 8th, Venus will also be in Pisces, which suggests that for all born after February 10th love life and indeed creative inspiration will best flourish in a private situation and where what you do for others in a very behind-the-scenes way and without fanfare, brings joy. After the 8th when Venus moves into your own sign of Aries, you will feel the pull of other people demanding your presence as your charms will be accentuated, and that is particularly the case for all born up to April 15th. This group will be looking good, feeling good and long-distance issues may be on your mind, particularly if combined with romance, and although feeling quite retreatist in many respects, the world will simply not allow you to hide away.
Your ruler Mars is currently retrograde from Virgo, your solar sixth house. Basically there is a need to look after health and to acknowledge that anxiety about health can create poor health. It is important that the work you are doing now is reflective of your changing goals and priorities, and taking a different tack and reviewing your methods and organisation can be a valuable exercise now. Around the 2nd and 23rd when Mars opposes Venus and Mercury respectively, you will be surprised at what good you can do for others through the work that you undertake and how much your inspiration can manifest in your day-to-day activities.
Saturn is now in the final degree of Libra, and this is now directly affecting those born around April 20th. For this group this influence has been strong for several weeks and remains so until the end of this month. It is forcing a confrontation that is necessary with the facts of a relationship which has become quite challenging. Either you are happy to accept the trials and tribulations and are prepared to give your energies to someone who needs them, or you may feel that the obligations that are being imposed upon you are too tough. This transit is a force for you to face truth, to do what you know you must do, but also to ensure that you learn important lessons. There could be karmic obligation involved and remember that even seemingly troublesome people are often your best teachers.
From the 7th when Saturn moves retrograde, there follows a period that will last to late June when you don’t have such control as you would like in certain relationship dynamics, and this can be professional or personal. Days when you can get a constructive angle on this issue, are around the 13th, 14th and 19th.
Uranus has moved on to directly affect the lives of those born March 21st to 26th. This once every 84 year visitation of Uranus; the magician, the awakener and enlightener, is certainly going to prompt this group to carry on the revolution that started in their lives back in May of last year, and which continued last August, September and October. Now, yet again, you are in the final influence of this game-changer. Disruption and the unexpected may be part of the picture, but it is there for a good reason.
Around the 10th when Venus is conjunct Uranus, all born around March 22nd to 24th are likely to be hit by a rather sudden and unexpected bolt out of the blue that may well have implications for love life in a liberating way and innovation creatively is indicated around that date.
Finally Pluto has now moved on to directly square the Suns of those born March 29th to April 1st. There are some power struggles in the ether, particularly from authority figures, possibly in your working life and you yourself may well be throwing your weight around a little more heavily than usual. You are struggling to gain power and to find your true destined identity. The ends of chapters are in the ether, particularly on a professional level, but remember nature abhors a vacuum, and out of the ashes of the old, a new identity will find itself. Don’t fight change and don’t let ego get in the way of acknowledging that there are only two certainties in life, but be conscious and don’t react in a primeval fight or flight manner.
