Finish Work, Find Time for Your Inner Life

By James Jarvis, M.A.

By adding the universal year 2004 (2+0+0+4 = 6) to the 3rd month of March, we come up with the vibration of 9. The 9 month is a time to complete outstanding projects to free up extra energy to devote to your inner life. Take some time for reflection and self-renewal in March.

March 3-April 5 Love your body. With Venus in Taurus, the focus this month is on loving your body and appreciating your sensuality. Be kind to your body. Give your body the gift of massage, a relaxing hot tub, a great hug session with your beloved or with your friends. Learning to love your body is the fast road to high self-esteem.

March 6 Nurture your emotional health. With the full moon in Virgo, use this month to find out what your body needs to support your emotional health. Maybe it needs more exercise, better nutrition or more attention to diet. Use the positive qualities of Virgo, discernment and discrimination, to put your life and daily routine into increasingly coherent order.

March 7 Develop inner security. Saturn, which has been retrograde since October 2003, goes direct at 6 degrees Cancer on March 7. The challenge is learning how not to contract (Saturn) emotionally (Cancer) when faced with adversity. We need to develop an inner security that is based upon our connection with Spirit rather than the ever-changing drama of the external world. Use this time, now that Saturn is direct again, to affirm and deepen your connection with Spirit. That way you know beyond any doubt you are not separate.

March 7-9 Express your need for freedom. Venus in Taurus is in a positive relationship with Uranus in Pisces. With Venus/Uranus, the emphasis is on questioning the degree of freedom that exists in your relationships. Venus/Uranus asks us to get in touch with how much freedom we really need in relationship, whether we feel trapped or “hemmed in.” True freedom is created by telling the truth about what you need, plus a willingness to deal with feelings of abandonment, alienation and fear.

March 12 Initiate communication. Mercury travels through the sign of Aries this month from March 12 through April 1. With Mercury in Aries, the focus is on taking initiative and leadership in the arena of communication. Can you catalyze and empower others to act? What communications are you putting off because of fear of what others would think? With Mercury in Aries, the emphasis is on being the spiritual warrior in all areas of communication.

March 20 Be authentic. The new moon in Aries asks us to speak out boldly to others about what we need for emotional fulfillment. Moon in Aries is calling you to bring full awareness to your needs. It enables you to be totally present and authentic with others.

March 20 Spring into action. The sun moves into Aries, heralding the spring equinox of equal days and equal nights, on March 20. The Aries principle is symbolized by acts of initiation and innovation. Our job during the sign of Aries is to spring into action in new and innovative ways, using our natural leadership and delegation skills.

March 20 Stay with it. Mars, the planet representing personal will, moves through the sign of Gemini from March 20 through May 7. Since Gemini is the sign that represents perception through the five senses, when Mars is in Gemini the challenge is to stay focused in the present moment. Try making lists for your immediate priorities. Cleaning up miscommunication or catching up on correspondence and other writing are perfect uses of this transit.

March 24 Gauge your power. Pluto will be retrograde in Sagittarius from March 24 through August 29. Pluto retrograde in Sagittarius is a time to check in with how you are manifesting your power and speaking your truth. Since Pluto in your birth chart represents where you tap into collective power or will, Pluto retrograde is a time when you can reflect on how you are using your personal power. Do powerful people make you uncomfortable? If so, then the Pluto retrograde period may be a time to look at how you may be feeling not empowered in your life—or look for ways to sense more personal power in your life.

March 26-30 Look for a kick start. Since Mars is in the airy sign of Gemini, this is a great time to share and disseminate your knowledge. Combining the raring-to-go energy of Mars with impatient Uranus provides plenty of rocket fuel to kick start you into action. This transit is kind of like drinking a triple latte every day without the crash!
