    Meet the Challenge, Seize the Dream

    ggg_Page_22_Image_0004 - Copy - CopyToday (February 25), Uranus the Rebel gives you the green light to break a rule that doesn’t make sense, and get away with it. An added bonus? That devilish look in someone’s eye may entice and invite. Go for it!

    In March, buckle up for a wild cosmic ride starting March 5 when Mars couples with gypsy Sagittarius for 7 sizzling months, triggering events and feelings. You may find yourself hungry for a worthy challenge and itching to get something moving. It will be a time to prove yourself to yourself. March 8 is auspicious for starting a new project, applying for a dream job or asking for a well-deserved promotion. In the mood for love? Propose a tête-à-tête with that special someone you’ve been eyeing (March 5 and March 6 yield the steamiest results), or propose on bended knee to your significant other.

    While Mars is the accelerator, Mercury in Pisces (March 5–March 20) is the gentle reminder to tap the brakes. Perceptions downshift from linear to intuitive during these three weeks. You will be privy to realms beyond the 5 physical senses. Relax, and don’t rush. Indulge in an afternoon catnap. Meditate. Listen to music. Take space. Tune out reality, and dial in the subtle voice of the Muse.

    Kick back and you’ll receive inspired messages through dreams, clues, cues and synchronicities. Follow them, as well as your hunches, and you can’t go wrong. Others might marvel at your good luck and amazing timing. Color this period magically weird. However, if you persist on shifting into high gear, you might slip on the cosmic banana peel. The mantra for Mercury in Pisces is “Surrender.

    On March 8, a Pisces new moon is amplified by a total solar eclipse–a heady brew indeed. New moons are times to plant seeds that bear fruit at the full moon. Under the influence of a total solar eclipse, there can be a crisis that translates as a crucial stage or turning point in the course of something. Shaking things up allows for new, positive growth. Been meaning to break an old pattern or habit? This would be the time. If you’re a Pisces, Gemini, Virgo or Sagittarius (or have a rising sign or moon in any of those signs), this event will be more impactful. Nothing to fear–it’s just the cosmos cleaning out those dust bunnies that you’ve been ignoring. Change is good, especially if it’s conscious.

    With so much Piscean energy, you can count on your inner knowing far more than rationale. Pisces knows nothing about scheduling or deadlines. Let the distractions of the “real” world melt away. It’s okay if you lose track of time, and be sure to take your time.

    All in all, this is a period of contrast. If you know what you don’t want, you will know more about what you do want. Enjoy it all!
