A while back we reviewed February as a calendar month, using the aspects and symbols for February 1.  Here is an approach to the same agenda for March.  Some is repetition but some new: 

Is it better?  Yes and no.  We need optimism, so I shall point out some of the promising features and not dwell on the ugly ones.  The ugly ones are meant to be overcome, of course; even Cinderella's ugly sisters might enter upon a plan of self-reform.  Mercury, moon and Saturn very close together are in degrees Charubel gives as: "A naked man with a serpent coiled around the lower part of the body" -- filthy habits; "conquer thy evil nature" -- "A man on crutches," unfortunate -- and "A man at a desk with account books; he has dark hair, projecting eyebrows and keen dark eyes."  This suggests early attention to tax returns or other accounts, or maybe in this era digital equipment such as computers and phones.  Since Mars and Venus are together in Capricorn, perhaps relationships will be involved with career matters (I know one couple of whom this is true).  

As for  "A naked man with a serpent coiled around the lower part of the body" -- filthy habits; "conquer thy evil nature" -- I am seeing how this is working out.  For example, in Tim Pool's latest podcast there was a lengthy discussion of how Artificial Intelligence "girlfriends" or "boyfriends" may become a real rage, if not already, that is, simulations of "real people" or perhaps "real sex objects" designed according to the wishes of the Master or Mistress of said artificial entity.  This is either refined pornography or auto-eroticism, of course, and Charubel was describing just such stuff with "a serpent coiled around the lower part of a naked body."  The "man on crutches" or woman on crutches we have seen, sadly, in the footage of what is happening in Ukraine  I leave the "keen accountant" to you to understand; I am going to have to deal with tax and other business matters as well as perhaps a new phone this month. 

Whereas Mars was in the degree "A butcher" (suggesting at present Putin to most people, but having other applications) in February, in March it is "Two men running a race" suggesting that the Russia-Ukraine situation, with its Russia-versus-Western-nations implications, may be less harsh and more like manageable rivalry or competition along some lines.  This can also be the perpetual Biden-Trump contest as continuing whether anyone likes it or not.  Pluto is tightly with the Venus-Mars conjunction and its symbol is "An indescribable scene; chaos, confusion, dissolving views" and Charubel says this could be insanity or idiocy.  Some will think this might apply to Biden or Putin or both, but it might be more important to see how it applies to oneself in one's weaker moments, or those with whom one is associated.  Ukraine is not the only place where there could be "chaos, confusion, dissolving views."  

There are a lot of "warning" symbols and not many reassuring ones.  For Neptune:  "A column of smoke ascending on a gigantic scale, followed by a terrible burst of flame.  The phenomenon partakes of the character of an explosion."  Ukraine, of course, and there was even worry that a nuclear plant site was temporarily in flames.  Something similar happened a day or two later in South Korea.  Charubel says "This degree is subtle; its egvents are sudden, always falling out unexpectedly, and generally disastrously.  This is not fate, but there will ever be a tendency in the direction mentioned."  And so we should keep our spiritual and prayer life strong and alert, to help us avert such non-fated but potential disasters.  

Last month Mars was the high-focus planet and this month Venus.  That seems good.  Less warlike proclivities, let us hope, and more desire to cooperate.  However, Venus is in the degree "Too revolting to be given" according to dear Charubel -- "indulge not in stimulants; keep out of bad company; seek to develop thy higher nature." That goes along with the naked body coiled by a serpent, a warning that one might succumb to what is perverse and either time-wasting or dissipating or even dangerous.   It seems we are being toughened up, or it is the tough who win out, with six of the ten planets in Saturn-ruled signs.  We do have, however, the sun with Jupiter while both sextile Uranus and that is liberating at some level.  Jupiter: "A field of ripe corn ready for the sickle.  A cloudless sky and brilliant sunshine."  Says Charubel: "Health of body, peace of mind, a most happy disposition, prosperous in all worldly transactions."  Let us hope.  

Looking ahead, July and August (by this calendar-month method) stand out as the happiest, by planetary pattern and aspect, in the near future.
