March 2007 Forecast

Key Events:  

Full Moon 3/03/2007 (Eclipse)

New Moon 3/18/2007 (Eclipse)

Mercury Direct 3/08/2007

The Full Moon on March 3 is in your sign, which will have particular significance for those born the first week of September.  This lunation will be stronger than most since it's also an eclipse, which will have effects that could last until the next one, roughly six months later.  However, since we're talking about a Full Moon, which usually marks the culmination of something, this may well signal the completion of something that started with a New Moon eclipse roughly six months ago.  Since this is occurring in your Natal First House this will be something that has been felt at a personal level.  This assumed ending could come sometime before or after the actual eclipse; more than likely after since your ruling planet, Mercury, is currently retrograde, though he will go direct on March 8.

As long as we're talking about lunations, we may as well go into the New Moon as well.  That will occur on March 18 in your Natural 7th House of relationships.  And it will also be an eclipse, but in this case it will open doors to a new phase of some sort.  And, you guessed it, it will be in effect until closed out by a Full Moon eclipse around your birthday.  There is a lot of other planetary activity in this neighborhood, which happens to be Pisces.  Mercury is one of them, or at least will be on March 18.  At least the little fella will be out of retrograde by then so will aid in your ability to think and communicate effectively. 

Uranus is also there, however, and he's often a harbinger of surprise, change or unexpected events.  Especially if your birthday falls during the first week of September, something is likely to occur March 5 or possibly between March 16 -19 that will affect one or more of your relationships.  Don't go jumping to conclusions in typical Virgo fashion and think that this will be something you won't like.  I know you're critical by astrological nature and all that, but it could just as easily be something that you'll like.  You know what shape your relationships are in at this time, which could be an indication of which way things will go.  They could go from bad to worse, bad to better, better to great or whatever.  It's really up to you what you do with the events and circumstances so that it all turns out in your favor. 

Possibly related to all this is the fact the Venus will be in your Natural 8th House of intimate relationships, death & regeneration and other people's money for about the first half of the month.  This should bring some pleasantries to this area that could include a new phase in an existing positive relationship or possibly even an inheritance of some sort.  When she moves into Taurus on March 18 it will bode well for 9th House issues such as higher education, long distance travel, legal matters or any ceremonies you may have coming up. 

You're likely to experience some positive developments that affect your home environment as well, though these have probably been going on for the past few months.  These may not have always been particularly pleasant, but things should be progressing well and helping you to define your expectations for this area.  Whatever changes may be involved to make your home environment what you'd like it to be should proceed well and usher in a more satisfying lifestyle than you've had for quite a while.  Often the path to discovering what we really want or like entails exposure to what we don't want or like before we can decide via the process of elimination, if nothing else.  Or like they say, no life is ever wasted, you can always serve as a bad example.

There's quite a bit of action going on in your Natural 6th House of work this month also.  Neptune continues to plod along in that vicinity along with Mars.  Needless to say the King of the Deep and the God of War aren't the best of friends.  Neptune emanates idealism as well as delusions and fantasies, which are not always well placed in your work environment.  Mars brings energy, which in its positive form can bring drive and ambition but its negative form can manifest as aggression.  When these two get together on March 26 there's no telling what it could bring, but be prepared for something.  I know that you Virgos tend to be perfectionists and highly critical, which can fall easy prey to Neptune's call for idealism resulting in unrealistic expectations.  Mars, of course can bring about a confrontation of some kind.  Therefore use some of your Earth Sign practicality to be as objective as possible about your views and opinions and use that Mars energy to make things better, but not in a way that walks over the top of someone else. 

And that someone else could easily be your boss.  This is more than likely since Neptune is currently in a cosmic dos-à-dos with Saturn, which represents authority, responsibility, structure and such.  Another possibility, since Saturn is parked in your Natural 12th House of the subconscious, is that your ruminating on how you really feel about the authority figures in your life and/or your personal responsibilities.  With Saturn currently retrograde, this is especially likely.  Around April 21 these thoughts should break the surface and you'll have a good idea what you need to do in this area. 

That about does it for Virgo for this month, which is certainly more than enough.  You have a lot going on in areas that aren't exactly your personal favorites, so bear with yourself and the Universe by being prepared and as objective and nonjudgmental as possible.  The world is definitely not perfect, but this is not your fault and worrying about it will only distract you from the things that you CAN do to make your world happier.
