Perspectives for March 2008
By Govinda
The first 19 days of March bring to us the
sympathetic, moody, idealistic, spiritual, mystical, visionary
energies of the Sun in the sign of Pisces. This is a wonderful
time to become an active participant in your favorite humanitarian
causes. Your dreams are likely to be more clear and meaningful
during this time, as well. It may be helpful to keep a dream
journal next to your bed to record all of the insights and
messages you will be receiving. You may gain deeper insights into
your emotional and spiritual nature during this time.
Pisces energy supports deep and meaningful explorations of the
unconscious for both psychological healings and spiritual
realizations. The Pisces vibration supports deep contemplation and
meaningful meditations. If you already practice meditation, your
meditations will be especially insightful. If you do not meditate,
now would be a good time to begin.
The veil between the spiritual and the physical world is thinnest
during the Sun’s transit through the sign of Pisces. Take this
opportunity to ask Source to show you solutions for your concerns
and support you in your healing of relationships, physical
illnesses and so on. Then, surrender and allow Source to bring you
clarity and support through the magical dance of the Universe.
Your guidance may show up as messages that are repeated three or
more times through various forms. Be aware of your dreams, songs
that play on the radio, conversations with friends and strangers,
signs on passing trucks, messages through television shows,
movies, and other media. Be open to messages that come through
meditations and mystical tools – such as astrology, tarot cards,
numerology, palmistry, and psychic readings from enlightened
sources. Remember that the Universe has a great sense of humor, so
enjoy what you receive.
The New Moon, at 18 degrees Pisces, occurs on March 7th, at 9:14
am Pacific / 10:14 am Mountain Time. This begins a new lunar month
(29 ½ days) bearing two helpful, humanitarian Stelliums (massive
Conjunctions) of celestial energies that support the opening of
our hearts and minds to higher truth, compassion and visions of
greater possibilities. More people will begin to see and demand
truth in their personal lives, careers, from businesses,
advertising, spiritual organizations and governments. People will
demand more responsible actions from their political leaders. On a
personal level, you can take advantage of these higher
possibilities through activities that help humanity in your
community and through participating in self-help groups.
Conflicts and power struggles are likely to arise and create
tensions between factions. It is important to be willing to see
all points of views, even if you don’t agree with them. This could
diffuse some tension and provide perspectives for conflict
resolutions.
From February 7th thru July 16th, the planet Jupiter is in a
favorable alignment of enlightenment (Sextile Aspect) with the
planet Uranus. It will reach its peak of positive influence on
March 28th. This cycle represents a downloading of inspirational
and Divine wisdom into the Collective Consciousness of Humanity
that will stimulate the evolution and awakening of higher
consciousness in those who are ready for it. This cycle supports
and stimulates the “second coming of Christ”. The second coming of
Christ is the awakening of Divine Feminine consciousness in
balance with the Divine Masculine, which happens within each of us
when we are ready. Spiritual masters are likely to come forward
with spiritual teachings that will enlighten masses of people and
quicken the evolutionary process of Humanity. Scientific
discoveries and inventions for the betterment of Humanity and our
world will be discovered and made public. This is an auspicious
time for you to be open to and take action on your inspirations –
especially those that have to do with service to the good of
Humanity and the world, or that will bring you more freedom and
happiness. [Note: this cycle will repeat from October 5th thru
December 13th]
On March 19th, at 10:49 pm Pacific / 11:49 pm Mountain Time, the
Sun will enter into the sign of Aries. This is the Vernal (Spring)
Equinox. This is the time for bold new beginnings, as we are
influenced by the dynamic, adventurous, fiery, creative, original,
impulsive, assertive, confident, warrior energies of Aries – that
will last about 30 ½ days. In general, this is a fine time to
consider fresh, new approaches to your life.
From March 13th through April 15th, we will be in a very difficult
celestial alignment (when the Sun is in a T-Square to a Mars
Opposition Pluto aspect). This represents impatient, impetuous,
war-like, power-struggle energies that are likely to present
obstacles for you. If this happens, remember not to react to these
obstacles, or to the actions of others, with violence. Instead,
take in a deep breath, slow down and respond with caution and
objectivity. True strength comes from within. Align with your
inner being and respond from your heart. Ask yourself, “What is
the highest good for all concerned?” and “What is the most loving
way that I can respond to this situation?”
During this time you may feel frustration, agitation or anger. Be
sure to process these Mars energies in ways that don’t damage or
hurt yourself, other people or personal property. Instead, feel
the negative emotions that are showing up for healing, express
them verbally and physically (e.g. clap your hands, stamp your
feet, hit a pillow), and then give the energies to Spirit.
The Full Moon, at 2 degrees of Libra, happens on March 21st at
11:40 am Pacific / 12:40 pm Mountain Time. This day and about four
days before and after, are the most intense energies of the month.
We will experience a boost of emotional intensity colored by the
frustrated, war-like energies described in the previous two
paragraphs. It is good to respond to these energies in the most
responsible and productive ways possible. Since Mercury is aligned
(Conjunct) with Venus in Pisces, there are creative, imaginative
and compassionate ideas and feelings emerging that may be directed
towards service to idealistic solutions for relationship problems.
Also, artistic energies are flowing with expanded possible
modalities and expressions during this time.
Easter Sunday is on March 23rd. Spiritual energies are strong this
Easter for experiencing and celebrating the true meaning of
ascension. Ascension means to consciously rise above the normal
ways of thinking and being in this world. It is a process of
conscious evolution that begins with a choice to appreciate all of
the good in your life.
FORECASTS FOR EACH SIGN IN
MARCH
The following is a description of
the cosmic energies that will affect you during this year, and
specifically this month. Remember, you always have free will to

well as your Sun Sign. The dates given are accurate, give or take
a day:

ARIES: This is a profound time to reconsider
your career. Positive possibilities may lead you toward a more
meaningful direction – especially on the 6th11th, 13th, 27th and
28th. However, it would be wise to postpone career changes until
after April 15th. Spend quality time alone and get more acquainted

Contemplation, introspection and meditation will help you find
balance in your life. Be sure to process (feel, express and
surrender to Source) any unpleasant emotions that may come up
during this time. You can make significant psychological and
spiritual breakthroughs this month. After the 19th, your
