The March Astral Terrain Overview and Daily Forecasts for the 1st through the 5th



This forecast is prepared and written in luminous tiles across your retinas. May it shine forth upon all who meet your gaze. Words grow here slick and filthy and unhindered by enterprise.

Ahhh, March has sprung, when the cicadas emblazon the trees with the sonority of their oversoul, and the bleak, majestic locomotives of our ancestors awaken us as they roll across our sleep-thickened hearts. Yes, there’s a little something Apocalyptic for everyone in March, but the lucky ones who take center stage will have either Earth signs (Taurus, Virgo, Capricorn) or mutable signs (Gemini, Virgo, Sagittarius, Pisces) prominent. In the midst of the challenges we face with the 2012 phenomena and the crisis/transformation in human consciousness, there has been for several months a beautiful light-specific platform appearing and dissolving before us, seemingly floating among the clouds, a quorum of slavering Pre-Raphælites relinquishing diction for a prime ordeal latent with lysergic appeal. and drawing us forward. we ripen at will and I like it. Although this platform deluXe seems inaccessible at times, it is very available to us in March—in fact, it reaches its culmination as a kite forms across the heavens pinned to the high-tension wire stretching across space, the Sun’s opposition to Mars. This contact will be most powerful March forth, or rather March 4th through 14th, after building since last June. It will continue to be a solid footing for us to build on until the end of June. By now you have some idea of what you’re building, yes? For some it’s inner structures that will lead to an unfolding externalization of new forms further down the road. For others there are real plans, projects, relationships, homes, and other structures taking shape, perhaps in slow motion. Look for the signs of what’s developing, especially in the first half of the month. March will see our plans moved forward according to their stage of development. Some will finally precipitate into form into our experience, while others will remain in the ethers to be shaped by our faith and perseverance. Don’t give up! Generate terrific monuments made of coloured steam. In hail we storm the edifices of a scream more incredible than the bursting of a thousand hearts amplified through vacufazers at full speed. March is all about reconciliations which begin as internal reflections. Mercury entered its retrograde shadow on February 26 when it reached the earliest point it will back up to on when it goes direct on April 4, 23°51' Pisces. It commences retrograde travel on march 17th at 6°49' Aries. During its three weeks of backward travel, it carries messages from Saturn and Uranus. These planets occupy the borderland between the visible and invisible worlds, Saturn with its rules and structures, and Uranus with its constant invigoration that creates newness that creates harmony with the unseen. Nearly all our cycles are launched for 2012, except for Uranus’s. This is remedied on march 24th, when Sun reaches the Great Awakener at 4°31' Aries. This is part of a new round of challenges as the Sun marches through another Cardinal sign to highlight the Uranus–Pluto square, especially march 19-20. Expect a plot twist or two as the Sun makes this passage. What occurs now will be played out over the coming year.there’s a notable gaggle of astrological objects which will be retrograde in Virgo all month, telling us that questions of functionality, feasibility—the very effort it takes to get from here to there—and morality…they’re all in the mix. And maybe at stake. Virgo is an earth sign. And to have a bundle of “metaphysical considerations” poised in this particular earth(y) sign points to the “health” of the matter. Or your health. Duty, the job, employees, and where (or if, or how) we should or shouldn’t subjugate our will to the greater good. When is that a good idea or not such a good idea? This is the backdrop against which all else happens during March. In other words, we’re going to be thinking about things—and things will occur because this is the time to be thinking over what’s worth what, where duty meets desire, where our actions meet up with the boundaries of others—all that. So keep that in mind. Like as not you’ll find that one idea helps tie things together so you don’t feel quite so “pulled in one direction or another” all month! Mars (the gas pedal) and Saturn (the brakes) continue their retrogrades, slowing us down then speeding us up as we get what we have the potential to accomplish during their period of backward travel. Mars resumes forward motion on April 23, Saturn on June 25. Mars tends to focus us on clearing whatever obstacles keep us from moving forward, while Saturn leads us to correct the social structures that we need to go on. The issues of wounding and healing going back as far as February a year ago are brought to the surface as Mars opposes Chiron for the second of three times on March 22nd. We cannot be weaned prematurely or circumcised without sedation lest we become traumatized and crestfallen.

THURSDAY MARCH 1
Mercury quincunxes Saturn to open us to the story that will play out while Mercury is retrograde starting March 12.. Now we realize that our current relationship imbalances won’t go away without ‘fessing up. Listen up, this important! Moon moves through mid-Gemini, a square to Mars inflaming our mood. Watch your speech for irritability; if you can trace it back to what causes it inside you, you’ll have struck gold.

FRIDAY MARCH 2
Mercury enters daring Aries at 3:41 am PT to jazz up our communicative style and bring forth our confidence. Moon finishes its stay in Gemini early, entering its void period at 5:14 am on a note of bliss. It gives us a break until 7:08 am, when it dives into Cancer’s waters. With both Mercury and Moon early in a Cardinal sign, we’ll become aware of where our head and heart disagree about how to solve our biggest problems—another chance to clear misconceptions and bring them into harmony. Over the day, contacts to Neptune, Uranus, and Jupiter deepen our experiences. From now on there will be sleeping in blue forests, there will be dancing on silver beaches and there will be bathing in prismatic waterfalls. Only magnetic nights from now on. There will be riding on the backs of angelzebras. The keys are lettered and the letters are numbered. From now on we are electrick.

SATURDAY MARCH 3
The three-month Mars retrograde period reaches its peakwhen it is opposed by the Sun at 12:10 pm/13°39' Virgo-Pisces. Since January 23rd we’ve been bathed in Mars’s energy, perhaps feeling more rushed, anxious, frustrated, or energized about something. Wherever this applies in your life, the situations reach critical mass today, and we will know more about what direction this is headed in very soon. The Moon swims through mid-Cancer, taking us deep into the unconscious overnight, then helping us find opportunity to overcome the obstacles that Sun-Mars bring to the fore.

SUNDAY MARCH 4
Harking back to mid-February (the 7th-15th) we emerge from the depths of examining our ways of relating to others, recovering gems of insights from the fertile soils in the Underworld. All things seem possible now, including returning to the past to recover what belongs in the future. The parts that you want to carry forward are available now, as Venus opposes Saturn retrograde. The Moon in late Cancer augments the process by making us more aware of our emotional states surrounding these situations. We tap the inner realms and communicate with others during its void period, which starts at 2:17 pm, lasting until it enters optimistic Leo at 3:18 pm PT. Insights flood us for the rest of the day if we’re paying attention. We can charm a snake from a cat’s vagina just by snoring. We can steer a tank with our diction even if you numb our tongue with a lethartonic unguent. And yet even the slightest breeze seems to send us into a blazing legislative fury.

MONDAY MARCH 5
Our insight period peaks in the wee hours, when Mercury conjoins Uranus in Aries. We feel much better about our relationships as our love receptors light up when Venus enters Taurus at 2:25 am PT. Now it heads toward a highly auspicious conjunction with Jupiter, timed to coincide with the Earth Grand Trine of March.13-14. It offers a rare opportunity for flow, but it tends toward happiness with what we have rather than action, so draw upon the activating elements of your own nature if you want to create something new with this energy, which is with us through March 31st. Next comes a little dish of ivory spittle from the mouth of a milksucking bat (it preys on lactating sloths and humans). After that comes a cube made of quetzal eggs set in gold-flecked acrylic (no expense spared here).And if you’re still murmuring amongst yourselves, a clay bowl hand-crafted by Canadian deco-primitivists and filled with spiced snuff or ketamine, as you please, will be presented for ritual snorting – unless you just want to look at it. Following the bowl ritual, you will be invited to recline for a special ceiling show (all we can tell you is that it will be accompanied by Goa Trance music broadcast cranially through special speakers in your formfitting headrests).By the time the tiger moths and hummingbirds are released into the chamber (next on the bill), we will have left the Earth’s orbit. Moon in Leo motivates us to expand and reveals the benefits of doing so as it squares Jupiter.
