Inner Space Horoscope for March 2012
Dear Friend and Reader:
March is the month of the vernal equinox here in the Northern Hemisphere, and this will be a vibrant, exciting moment. The Sun ingresses Aries on March 20 in a conjunction to revolutionary, inventive Uranus, then makes a square to Pluto -- an echo of the future when, during the next three months, we begin to experience some of the most amazing astrology of our lifetimes. Mercury is retrograde in Aries from March 12 through April 4. Mars in Virgo has also been retrograde since January; it turns direct on April 13. For more highlights about spring astrology, I suggest you check out the audio introduction to the Spring Report, which takes you through the many odd, beautiful and unusual events of the coming season.
Lovingly,
PS: For those who are following this week's astrology of many turning points (signified by Sun square the lunar nodes), please check out this post covering the topic, as well as another one on today's Michigan Republican primary.
Introducing the Planet Waves 2012 Spring Report by Eric Francis
Spring 2012 is the wildest season I've ever seen in 18 years of doing around-the-clock astrology [listen to short audio preview here]. It fits the 2012 pattern of 'everything, all at once', even making that sound like an understatement. I am working on the report even as we edit this issue, and it's coming out beautifully -- every sign is coming through loud and clear and distinctive.
We have retrogrades of all three inner planets involved -- Mercury, Venus and Mars. There is a rare Venus transit of the Sun -- an exact conjunction of Venus and the Sun that you will be able to see if you have a clear view during daylight hours (you will need special equipment to protect your eyes). There are eclipses of the Sun and the Moon. And then, just four days after the Cancer solstice, we have the first exact square of Uranus and Pluto.
In honor of putting all this action to work for you, I'm preparing a special Spring Report for all 12 Sun signs and rising signs, as well as an introduction to the astrology that will be useful to everyone. This is a package of all 12 signs for one price. I'm designing it so that you can actually put many of the signs into use -- for example, Virgo will be able to use the Gemini report as a career reading. Pisces can use Virgo's report as a relationship reading, and so on. I give suggestions at the end of each sign, and will do a detailed description so you can get maximum use from this product.
We're offering it at a special pre-sale price for current subscribers and customers -- all 12 signs for $19.95. Once the report comes out, it will go on general sale for $24.95. The report will be ready by March 7, well before the spring equinox -- I'm working on it now and it's coming out amazing. Here is the link to pre-order. Thanks for signing up.
Inner Space Horoscope for March 2012 | Eric's Zodiac Sign Descriptions
Aries (March 20-April 19) -- There is a clairvoyant quality to your charts right now, so much that I'm tempted to ask you what you think is on the horizon rather than try to tell you. That said, you have an open channel of spiritual communication that will prove to be helpful in the coming months. That might turn out to be challenging, given that you're experiencing so much activity, potential and the need to take your responsibilities seriously -- but I ask you, when else do you need to be guided from the soul? No matter what is happening, no matter how dramatic or challenging your life may be, you have access to a deep inner current of intelligence. The only requirement is that you ask, and that you listen for the reply. Ask sincerely and listen carefully and you'll be told everything you need to know.

Taurus (April 19-May 20) -- Take care of yourself. Take care of your mind, and take care of the place you hold in the world. Both are precious and deserve to be treated that way. You may be feeling on top of your game, however I would propose that your situation is more delicate than is obvious to you. If you're not using your relationship experiences as a mirror and a template for growth, you may be missing some key opportunities that are not available on a regular basis. It's true, you can make nearly any decision at nearly any time, but your experiences are offering you a perspective on 'the other' that can, if you pay attention, reveal a lot about what you want from life. If you're obsessed over what you don't want, I would propose taking another approach. Being affirmative will provide a more direct path.

Gemini (May 20-June 21) -- This is a magnificent moment to both shine and do so in a way that is actually unique, meaning unique to you alone. You have no obligation to conform to anyone -- you never did, but the temptation is always present. I don't suggest you be different for its own sake, but rather that you have a license to celebrate and pursue your dreams while honoring your integrity as an individual. This shows up many ways, but most vividly in your freedom to have your own viewpoint of a situation, which may differ from every single person you know -- and especially in pursuing a quirky, unusual and rather daring dream that you've been keeping to yourself for a while. The beauty of the moment is that you are already the person you wish you could be; now all you have to do is get out of your own way.

Cancer (June 21-July 22) -- Achievement does not come easily to you; you care too much about your fellow humans to lie, steal and cheat -- the usual ways people find 'easy' success. That said, you're in a moment where something special is about to open up, and it looks a lot like some kind of vibrant, beautiful success at something that's deeply personal to you. But I would add a few words of caution. It's still possible for you to make mistakes, and small mistakes can go a long way toward taking the momentum out of much greater possibilities. Therefore, no matter how brilliantly you're doing, pay attention to every step and every communication. I'm not saying be stilted; I am saying be aware, correct your errors promptly, and understate your achievements. Pride is unbecoming of true success, and the world is watching.

Leo (July 22-Aug. 23) -- You're the very essence of faith in yourself -- except when you're not. I would argue, however, that the chart setup for Leo is the perfect expression of what used to be called humanism -- which in the words of Wikipedia's writers is "a philosophy or world view that focuses on human values and concerns, attaching prime importance to human rather than divine or supernatural matters." The thing is, as you may know, this is a path to a sensible, useful spirituality, one that is not weighed down by dogma. At the moment you're a walking expression of this philosophy in action. You don't need something outside yourself to feel your place in the cosmos, or like you belong on the planet. Many others around you are noticing this in your words and actions, and learning something precious.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sep. 22) -- Mars will be retrograde in your sign through mid-April, and first I want to check in with you on the essential themes of this transit: going beyond self-criticism; learning to state what you want directly; devotion to helping yourself first so that you will be much more effective in service of others. Of these, the first is one of the most debilitating issues that you face. You probably know this, and you're looking for a way out of the paradox that if you don't notice your own errors, you'll never get out of them, but noticing just seems to make matters worse. The thing you need to be vigilant about is violent impulses that you might direct toward yourself rather than observing. It's possible to observe using assessment rather than judgment, which works a lot better when making self-corrections.

Libra (Sep. 22-Oct. 23) -- In the coming months there will be a lot going on in your relationships, though despite the many surface-level changes and some jarring events, you can depend on a level of structural stability. That's the thing to count on when the momentum starts to pick up and you wonder where your life is going all at once. You're not really going anywhere other than where you put your feet. Motion is not the real issue, anyway -- your astonishing sensitivity is. Therefore, if you find yourself responding strongly to things that loved ones say to you, or to the events that seem to skate out of your control, I suggest that you ground in yourself, pause and filter out some of the external factors. If others cannot feel you quite so well, you can at least start by feeling yourself and gradually putting those feelings into words someone else can understand.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 22) -- This can be a really interesting, as in gorgeous, month for sex -- though it will help if you remember the difference between giving and receiving. Yes, they are closely related and some people 'get' pleasure from that of others, but there are still differences in the energy flow when you offer and when you open up and receive. The difference can resemble that between inviting yourself to someone's house, or extending a gracious invitation. It can be as daring as being available to explore someone's fantasy with them, setting aside your own scenario and playing the role that is the most fun for them. As for receiving -- there is a certain generosity in truly embracing what another offers you, and that is something I suggest you cultivate. For you, in a similar light, there is no such thing as 'too generous'.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 22) -- You're going to be in a bold mood to experiment as the month unfolds, though I suggest you think before you act. To you, that may feel like hesitation, and if that's the case, then I suggest you hesitate before you act. The difference, however, is that thinking is an active process of reflection, not merely momentary fear. I suggest you parse out the potential consequences of any particular adventure. From the looks of your solar chart, you may be feeling like you have no limits, therefore, I suggest you be the one to set some conscious limits, or at least moments of review. You can easily get drawn into the energy fields of others, through various forms of erotic play and romance. Make sure you have your wits about you. Simply put, there are some choices that take very little time but which have effects that last a really long time.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 20) -- Bono has a line of poetry that I've pondered for years: "You don't know if it's fear or desire." Now is a fine time to do a study on the differences. You're living in an entirely new environment right now, whether we're talking about physical location or an emotional state. Many things you previously held as permanent are showing signs of coming unstuck. Many emotional tendencies you've lived with your whole life are suddenly coming under the microscope. I see in your charts a deep craving to know yourself, even if these new developments are shaking you at your roots. The brilliant observation contained in Bono's line is that there is a fine line between fear and desire, and sometimes we're afraid of what we want the very most.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- Aquarius has a reputation for liking to think, and I sure hope it's true for you. For the next few weeks your mind will be less like a think tank and more like a furnace of hot ideas. I suggest that you try something radical, which is pick them up one at a time and dunk them in water. Cool them off, pick them up and see what you've got in your hand. Then, if you feel so inclined, gradually shape it into something that you want to work with. This is to say, ideas are one thing, and what you do with them is another thing. The mind can put out incredible amounts of power -- and how you harness that power determines whether your creativity is useful or not. You may not be inclined to slow down for long enough to actually figure out what you're thinking, though I suggest you give it a try.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) -- Neptune, the planet most often associated with Pisces, is now a feature in your sign, which means in your life, through 2025. This offers you some awesome potential -- but you're the one who has to bring the focusing power and personal discipline. (Pisces rising people, please take note as well.) It's the challenges that will offer you the opportunities for discipline, and most of them will involve your quest to be a whole person living a balanced life. There's lots of talk about this, but hardly anyone knows what it means -- nor can they tell you what it means for you. I would propose that in addition to food and rest, balance means expressing yourself in ways that are satisfying and remind you that you're alive. Twitter won't work. Painting, photography and music will work a lot better.
