This will be a huge month for news and change. If you could see your chart as the month opens, you would see that entire crowd of friendly heavenly bodies will be crowded into your second house of earned income. Those include Neptune, Mercury, the Sun, and new moon solar eclipse, all in Pisces 19 degrees. You are not a materialistic soul, for as an Aquarius, you are more interested in thinking about facts, ideas, and concepts over any time spent exclusively on money. You will have to think about your income this month nevertheless, and with a solar eclipse, it seems one source of income will be ending (at least temporarily) and a new one will eventually replace it. Or, you may take a sabbatical or unpaid leave of your job temporarily to attend to another part of your life (such as if you recently had a baby) and resume your job at a later date. Still, with all this change happening in your finances, you still have a good time to ask for a raise - do so just after March 8.

Neptune will be among the planets in your earned income house, so you will have to be careful. Neptune can fog information, so this month, when it comes to money, you may not be seeing things clearly. It may be that someone near you doesn't want you to know the whole truth, or that you misunderstand something vital, or, a third possibility might be that you have closed your eyes to something you would rather not see. Taskmaster Saturn will be in hard angle to Neptune at the time of the eclipse, and will work to keep you realistic. You may be frustrated however in that you may have to delay action on something you want to buy because you simply cannot stretch your money far enough to cover it. Still, it appears you will be working hard on a project that might last as long as six months, for Saturn demands complete attention to the job at hand.

On the plus side, you have fantastic support from Pluto, now in your twelfth house ruling things that go on behind the scenes in secret or out of view. It looks like you will get extraordinary help from someone who believes in you and who will go out of his or her way to make sure you feel secure and have enough money coming in. This person may not want you to know his or her identity and work very quietly in the background, overseeing what is happening with you like a real life fairy godmother or godfather. If you do find out this person's identity, you will likely be asked to keep that person's name to yourself, and not speak about it.

The second house of income rules not only the money you make, but also how and where you make it. You may be thinking about your future and seeing life a little differently. Money is simply stored energy (for your work turns into money) that you can spend in way you feel is right. This is a new moon, opening a new path and new opportunities. The harsh angle between Saturn and Neptune is simply a sign that you will need to be realistic and practical in making any changes. As said, powerhouse Pluto will help you. You had the first eclipse in the Pisces-Virgo family of signs (both covering financial houses for you) last year, on March 20, 2015. This eclipse on March 8 will pick up a thread on this subject you may have started a year ago. All eclipses hang together like pearls on a necklace, but unlike a necklace, each eclipse advances the talks that occurred previously. The next two eclipses in this family of signs will occur on September 1 and 16, 2016. This series of eclipses, focusing so strongly on your income will end on February 26, 2017.

Now let's turn to the unusual action of Mars that will begin this month and make headline news in astrological circles. Mars will enter your eleventh house of friendship on March 5, to stay not the usual six or seven weeks, but nearly seven months! The reason Mars is remaining so long in one part of your horoscope is that Mars will retrograde, so in the time that he goes forward, then back, then forward again, tracing his steps, weeks will go by.

Mars will retrograde from April 17 to June 29, but even after Mars awakens, he will be out of sorts until August 22 - at which time his brother, Mercury, will go retrograde August 30 to September 22. You see the problem. You have to get as much done in March as possible, and perhaps edge your work projects into early April a bit. After April 17, the world will start to sputter, and you may feel your life has become a film in slow motion.

When Mars is retrograde, you cannot make rapid progress, and because Mars rules competitive ventures, Mars will not help you win easily. You will have to provide the heavy lifting to stay ahead of the competition, and without Mars' support, it will be a strenuous experience. We are all in the same boat - every person of every sign will feel like they are suddenly walking through glue. When any planet retrogrades, it is a sign that we should be looking back in time, not forward to generate new ideas or new relationships. Look back and delineate what is broken, and then brainstorm for ideas of how you want to fix it. I feel that the first, most obvious answer that comes to me is not usually the best answer - so go deeper and don't be satisfied until you've made a list of ideas. Then, choose the ones you like the best.

Mars will retrograde in your friendship sector, so you may find you will want to reconnect with friends from your past. This might be fun, so you may be one of the few zodiac signs that will actually enjoy Mars' leisurely orbit because you will have the time to link to close friends you have not seen in a long time.

One weekend just made for you to take a short trip to see a friend will be March 25-26, for the Sun, in your third house of quick, short travel, will receive a golden beam from Mars (at that time, still moving direct).

The full moon lunar eclipse will arrive March 23 in Libra, 3 degrees, and light your ninth house. You appear to be traveling to a distant point or finishing up a trip and heading home. Full moons finish things, but eclipses, which have the strength of three full moons, have vitally important finishes. If you feel you would not be going to another city for the moment, you may be dealing with the conclusion of a legal case, or an immigration / green card / visa / passport matter. If you work with people abroad, or work in the international department of your company, something may be being wrapped up and shipped out. University matters also fall in this part of your chart, so you may be taking a qualifying exam to get credentials or admittance, or you may be handing in a critical paper to your professor. Do you write, edit, or work as a producer on a broadcasting project? It seems an assignment is finishing, and you will be proud of what you accomplished. The ninth house also rules in-laws, so you may hear news on or very close to March 23.

Neptune will be conjunct this full moon, which might cause you to work in a very inspired way on an artistic project. (Neptune rules the arts.) Be sure you know what you need to do, for if you misunderstand the needs of the client, you may need to backtrack later. Neptune can make information hard to see or digest. Mars will be beautifully oriented to this eclipse, and that means you'll be energized and have a spring in your step.

If your birthday falls on January 22, plus or minus four days, you will feel, and benefit from, this eclipse. The same is true for you if you have Libra rising, 3 degrees or within 0 to 7 degrees, or if you have a natal planet in Aquarius, Libra, Gemini, Aries, Leo, or Sagittarius at the same 3 degrees, plus or minus four degrees.

Now let's turn to the most special, sparkling day of the month, and possibly of the entire year: March 16. On that day, Jupiter will combine forces with big-time financial planet Pluto. Both planets, when working together, are called a signature of success in a chart, for together these two planets are known to cause profits to multiply. Remarkably, you have Jupiter in your house of other people's money, an ideal place to hear some sort of amazing news about money. If you are looking for a loan, line of credit, mortgage, venture capital, sponsorship, or other influx of cash in one big bundle, you may reach accord on this day. Certainly, you should keep this date in mind for a very important action. Alternatively you may see a windfall on this date.

Romantically, Venus will be in Aquarius in the early part of the month, until March 12, so circulate socially at that time. A standout day will be March 2, when Venus in Aquarius will receive a signal from your ruler and planet of surprise, Uranus. This will be a fantastic day to be out and about. Another memorable day for love will be March 10, when Mercury, ruler of your house of love, will contact heavenly Neptune. Although this month will have many practical considerations over money, there will always be time for love.

Many planets migrating into your financial house suggest you'll have plenty of money management meditations this month. This is unusual for a sign like yours that is basically not at all materialistic. Nevertheless, your work has apparently been first rate, so you may receive a large bonus or an offer for a bigger salary, or you may win a contest, as a few examples. Clearly, a new source of income appears to be on the way to you.

Among the planets visiting your second house of earned income will be Neptune, suggesting it may be that an artistic creation that you recently finished that impressed the critics that will turn out to be the reason you see a large sum now. The friendly solar eclipse March 8 will start events moving very quickly, and it appears you may leave one source of income for a more lucrative one. Saturn will be in hard angle to the eclipse, so if you do take a new job or new project, it appears you will have to be willing to give up free time for approximately six months - you will need to concentrate hard on the new assignment. Saturn will demand an all-or-nothing devotion to the job at hand. Saturn and Neptune will be in conflict, but that won't necessarily be bad. If you are asking for money from your employer, a bank, venture capitalist, or anyone else, Saturn will keep your feet on the ground, while Neptune will keep your spirit and creativity burning brightly.

Put a gold star on March 16. Excellent news about your income is on the way, for Jupiter, the good fortune planet, will reach out to powerhouse Pluto. This is an exceedingly rare aspect, so take seriously any offers that you receive on or near this date. Schedule meetings, and sign papers on this magical day. The growth potential of at least one possible deal will be astounding. Saturn will be at hard angles to the eclipse March 8, so although at times you may dream of having a more carefree life, in early month, keep your eyes on the road, and your hands on the steering wheel. All your hard work will add up to something big, so keep the faith.

Later, at the time of the second eclipse, a full moon lunar eclipse of March 23, you may be able to travel. Take the opportunity - you might go for business or pleasure. A friend seems to be helpful to you in regard to the travel you take, even if you go for business. Alternatively, it may be that a friend will introduce you to an executive based overseas, and if you get involved with the endeavor, you may be stunned to see it grow like wildfire.

Mars will enter your friendship sector on March 5, to stay until September 26. This is very long for Mars to stay in one sign, for Mars is typically only in one sign for six weeks. This suggests that a friendship will be on your mind quite a bit in 2016. Mars, the energy planet, sees to it that all human endeavors are successful, whether that be a new relationship or a product or service launch. The reason Mars will spend so much time in Sagittarius is that Mars will retrograde and even after, will move very slowly until September. This suggests you will waffle back and forth about your feelings about a certain friendship, at once "on" then "off." It won't be until October, or even December, that you will finally decide how you feel about this person.

In terms of love, fun, and romance, you'll do best while Venus tours your sign, Aquarius, a holdover from last month - note March 1 to March 11. Your allure will be high, your eyes will sparkle, and you'll be the most memorable person in the room. This is your time to go shopping. Don't miss out - you'll find many ways to update your look and enjoy the admiring glances.
