You will be one busy person this month! As March begins, you will have Neptune, Mercury, the new moon, and Sun in a Pisces solar eclipse on March 8. Every month, the new moon is always the nodal point on which the month rotates. When you have a solar eclipse, too, it triples the strength of the new moon, making it super powerful. Each year we typically have four eclipses, arriving in pairs, one on the new moon and one on the full moon. This year will be no exception - two will arrive this month in the Virgo-Pisces series of eclipses, and the other two in this series will arrive in September. The other eclipse this month will fall in Libra, 3 degrees, on March 23.

Eclipses are the some of the most powerful instigators of change that we are given to create progress. They bring outside events to your doorstep - events over which you have no control, but that will have a way of having a direct effect on you. A new moon solar eclipse is generally a happy event, for it opens a previously locked door to an entirely new experiences and opportunities. New moon eclipses start things, and that is what is about to happen very soon for you, after March 8.

The first eclipse, March 8, will have bearing on your workaday life. Your sixth house, where this new moon solar eclipse will appear, governs your assignments, workers who report to you, or co-workers who are on the same level as you. It covers the assignments you do, the equipment you use, and the actual physical headquarters where you work. Some short of massive change is coming, and it may be that you change jobs. If you were promised that you will have a better job with more responsibility, that won't quite be the case - any job move would be a lateral move, to the kind of work you've done previously. That may be fine with you if you are not happy where you currently work.

How might this eclipse affect you? You may get a new assignment that changes the game for you, for it helps you to prove you can handle more complex, sophisticated projects. If you change jobs, however, it would not be to one with more power and status - that would come in July. Sometimes it's okay to make a lateral move, especially if you don't like the work you are being given or if the person you report to is not someone you like because the chemistry between you is off. You may get the chance to hire an assistant, or at home, you may search for a nanny, au pair, gardener, regular babysitter, or other personal assistants. You may get shiny new computers, gadgets, or software to do your work more efficiently. If you are self-employed, you may start to pitch new clients and get a major one in short order.

The sixth house, which rules your work, also rules your health. If you have been troubled with a painful condition, you will likely see a new doctor to find relief. With four planets in Pisces, the problem seems to involve your foot.

Pluto will be beautifully angled to the March 8 eclipse, so a family member may be very helpful for tips for a doctor, treatment, or in regard to a topic you may have to learn or solve at work. Pluto's position also suggests you may make good money as a result of the work you do this month, or in regard to possessions, furniture, or a house / condo you sell this month.

Saturn will be in hard angle to the eclipse, suggesting that if you have to hammer out an agreement, it may be harder to do than you expect. This deal is not beyond your ability to handle, so simply go slowly and search for areas of accord.

Your third house of contacts, communication, and close kin, ruling siblings and cousins, will have an unusually strong emphasis in the month to come. I say this for two reasons. You've had Saturn in this part of your chart since September 17, 2015 (and prior to that, from December 23, 2014 to June 14, 2015). Saturn brings life lessons and opens up paths to maturity. You may be learning to write, edit, lecture, or translate in a more compelling or sophisticated way. If you work in advertising, marketing, or public relations, you will sharpen your skills too, thanks to Saturn's position in this house.

Mars will move into this your third house too, on March 5, and be set to stay an unusually long time, until September 27 of this year. The more typical orbit of Mars is to stay in one sector of the sky six or seven weeks, not close to seven months. The reason Mars will deviate from his normal orbit is that Mars will retrograde from April 17 to June 29. Even after Mars awakens, he will move very slowly, and only gradually ramp up his speed to full power - that process will take until August 22. Work hard to wrap up talks, make decisions, and initiate new projects now, without waiting. Stay away from acting right ON the day of an eclipse. So much dust is in the air when an eclipse occurs that it is hard to see the road ahead. That's why it is wise to schedule big actions on days other than eclipse days. That often can't happen, however, because eclipses trigger big life events - ones we always remember.

The second eclipse might have an even bigger effect on you. Coming March 23, at 3 degrees Libra, it is the last eclipse in the Aries-Libra family of eclipses. Those eclipses started October 18, 2013, and then in the following year we had a true monster, April 15, 2015, and one only a little less difficult on October 8, 2015. A walloping one came April 4, 2015, and a gentler one arrived September 27, 2015. This one, March 23, 2016, will be the last, and after this you can rest, as there won't be any more until 2023.

You would never have felt all the eclipses in the series, only one or two, but they may have been life-altering events. The readers who will feel this one, this month, will have been born on September 25 plus or minus four days. Or, if you have Libra rising at 3 degrees or within four degrees of that, or have a natal planet in Libra, Gemini, Aquarius, Aries, Leo, or Sagittarius, you, too, would feel the shifts.

With all full moon eclipses, the door is bolted shut - something important to you is ending or conversely, culminating. For example, you may get engaged or married, or hear good news from your mate. You may not have planned this event (whatever is due to come up), for if you did, you planned to act on it in the distant future. Yet eclipses have a way of demanding instant attention and dramatically moving up events. The universe wants to see progress, so you will feel its hand on your back, pushing you ever forward. This eclipse could easily put the spotlight on a one-on-one relationship, such as on your partner in love, marriage, or business. A friend may have a role to play too, one that is integral to all that goes on.

Transiting Mars will be very friendly to this eclipse from his perch in your third house, and that suggests you may take a trip suddenly to a location not too far away. The third house also rules writing, so you may be working on finishing a very important document, whether that be a book or screenplay manuscript, a white paper, thesis, or a contract, as some examples. Additionally or alternatively, Mars may bring good news about your sister, brother, or cousin, for the third house covers those close kin too.

When you host an eclipse in your sign, you may decide to change your appearance or follow a very different routine, perhaps by moving to a different city in a completely different part of the country. You will begin to see your identity in new terms, and everyone else will see you in a new light too. Anything you do, see, culminate, or begin on an eclipse is very important by virtue of the fact that your experience is happening at eclipse time.

You will have one stellar day this month that I would like you to pay special attention to - plan to act on something financial-oriented. Home and property would be the very best area for you to focus on to create the appreciation of your property. Any new deal you enter into is likely to grow beyond your expectations, but of course, consult your financial advisor first.

It will occur on March 16, when Jupiter, giver of gifts and luck and currently in Virgo, will be set to make a decisive and very friendly beam to Pluto in Capricorn. This is no ordinary aspect! Both planets are associated with profits and exceptional growth, and on this day, Pluto will expand all the goodness of Jupiter many times over. Pluto is currently in your home sector, so if you plan to sell, buy, or renovate a house, you would be wise to sign papers on this day.

A great weekend to plan a trip out of town for a fun getaway will be March 25-26, when the Sun and Mars will work together to bring the right result. If you have a mate or partner, you will go with that person, but if not, or if your partner is occupied (not likely, but in case this happens), you can go visit your sister or brother and do sports, share dinner, or swap memories about your family.

Venus will tour Aquarius, a holdover from February, from March 1 to 11, and your very best time if you are single and hoping to find true love. Venus will be touring your house of true love, ensuring your magnetism will be at an all-time high. This would be your right time to go shopping and work on giving your looks an upgrade for the coming season. Cupid is always pleased when you work on your looks, so while you have ideal aspects, by all means, take full advantage.

You'll be unusually busy at work and at home, with a plethora of details to track, so although you might not normally be a list-maker, this month keeping one would be a must-do. The new moon solar eclipse on March 8 will bring changes at the office or at home in terms of a trusted person who reports to you. It may be that a trusted assistant suddenly leaves, or that your favorite babysitter announces she is moving. This is life, but it can be disconcerting when you lose the assistance of someone you depend upon. This could happen after March 8. The departure of someone who has always turned in a strong performance at a time when your workload is heavy makes this doubly difficult. Before the eclipse occurs, do some creative "what if" and draw up a list of contingency plans. It appears you will have to do double duty until you can find suitable replacement, due to Saturn's hard angle to the eclipse. Still, despite changes and challenges, you can be a master of productivity if you are determined to keep your focus.

Mars is about to spend an unusually long time in Sagittarius, so you will likely start to travel much more than usual, to locations within 500 miles from your base. This trend will start on March 5 until September 27. You will be involved in communications, too, so you may be working in a job that emphasizes social media, or you may host a digital radio or TV show, begin a writing project, or design a popular app, as several examples. During the time Mars will be in Sagittarius, the red planet will retrograde back and forth, so you may need to go back over a project several times until the client is satisfied. Everyone will be in the same situation, so stay cheerful. Perfection takes time.

Check in with your sister or brother, as the third house, so lit up for you by Mars, also rules your siblings and cousins. If you do have a sibling, it appears this person will make family news in the coming six months. Stay in touch to stay up to date.

The biggest moment of the month will be the full moon lunar eclipse in Libra on March 23, bringing something dearly important to you to a finish or culmination. The events of this eclipse will speak to your heart, and to a desire so deep, it will describe a part of how you view that perhaps others don't know and that goes to the very core of your identity. Those with birthdays that fall on or within four days of September 25 will feel this eclipse the most and mainly benefit from it. No matter what plans you had prior to this eclipse, events will push you forward so quickly you may need a moment to catch your breath. For sure, one part of your life will change and evolve because, very simply, the universe feels it's time you did so.

This will be the last eclipse in the family of Aries-Libra that has been coming by since October 18, 2013. Think back to just before that first eclipse occurred. No matter when your Libra birthday happens to fall, you are likely now to be in a completely new place in life. The past two-and-a-half years have not been easy for you, for at times you have been uprooted or deeply challenged by some of the eclipses in that series. Mars will support this eclipse, so the actions you decide to take this month should lead to a result that pleases you.

This will be a big month, for a rare and glorious aspect will surface on March 16, when generous, expansive financial planet Jupiter and powerhouse Pluto will work together to help you improve the property you own or rent, which may include your home or vacation cottage. If you have plans to improve, sell, buy, or renovate, watch this date, as you are unlikely to find a good deal on or just after March 16. Consult with your advisor, broker, or contractor to see if he or she agrees.
