MONTHLY
OVERVIEW:
It’s your time, Pisces! The Sun is in your sign until March
20th, helping you make a fresh start. If anyone is ready for one,
it’s you. Last month, you shook the last few skeletons out
of your closet and laid them to rest, a process consumed most of
2009 for you. Closure was necessary, but it wasn’t easy.
Now, at long last, your work is done.
On March 15th, the Pisces new moon officially marks your personal new year. Leave the past behind and embark on a new six-month cycle where you go after your dreams with confidence and aplomb. Cut out all excuses, finger-pointing and blaming—it’s time to take full ownership of your life, no matter what you’ve been through. On the 20th, Sun moves into Aries on the 20th, revitalizing your work and money sector. Watch for new opportunities that match the person you’ve become. Keep an open mind.
LOVE & ROMANCE:
You’re in the midst of a new love affair with yourself, thanks
to Venus and Jupiter visiting Pisces. It’s high time you prioritized
your own pleasure and happiness, especially since you spent the last
year taking care of everyone else. If you’re not looking in the
mirror and smiling yet, act fast. Venus will be in your sign until
the 7th, sprinkling you with beautifying fairy dust. Splurge on highlights
or a new hairstyle; invest in a spring wardrobe pieces or a treat yourself
to a beautiful piece of jewelry for your birthday.
You’ll feel more settled when Venus moves into Aries on the 7th, and you’ll notice yourself craving stability and consistency from your love life. Remember, Pisces, nobody can give you that except yourself. Make sure you’re not looking to your mate to shore up your confidence—2010 is all about unconditional self-love. Work on your self-esteem this month, and as you do, craft an attractive new look that gives off the message you want. You might even work with an image consultant or a stylish friend (think: polished and elegant, with enough sexy edge to keep you out of “ice queen” territory).
On the 29th, the Libra full moon plunges into the depths of your intimate eighth house. This emotional moment could bring a turning point to your closest relationship, particularly in matters of trust. If your commitment is solid, take it up a notch—move in together, talk about future plans, or make a real gesture of unity that solidifies your bond. This moon might even bring news of a pregnancy or an engagement. For Pisces who are splitting up, you could finalize a divorce or a breakup, dividing up assets and going your separate ways.
MONEY & CAREER:
Put yourself out there full stop now, Pisces. Make a vow: no more settling!
With the Sun, new moon and Jupiter all happy-dancing through your
sign, it’s time to “man up” and aim directly for
your target. Not sure what that is? Spend the first three weeks getting
back in touch with your true self. Your intuition knows exactly what
to do, but residual self-doubt and confusion could be blocking your
access to that inner voice. Books like The Artist’s Way by
Julia Cameron and Sonia Choquette’s Your Heart’s Desire
can help clear the way. The Pisces new moon on the 15th could also
bring an epiphany about your true purpose. This new moon joins with
Uranus, the planet of radical change and the future, and Mercury
the messenger. Be willing to completely reinvent your lifestyle,
even relocate for an exciting opportunity. Taking a risk in the name
of personal evolution will bring abundant rewards this year.
On the 20th, the Sun moves into Aries, your work and finance house. During this cycle, build and manifest by taking simple, decisive steps. Avoid “analysis paralysis” at all costs. One surefire way to freak yourself out is to project too far out into the future, which will drive up worry and anxiety. When you don’t know what to do, take one small action—anything. Staying in motion will lead you naturally to the next logical step, then the next.
On March 29th, the Libra full moon beams into your wealth sector. You could receive a windfall or a settlement, or you may be involved in a real estate venture. You may need to temporarily borrow funds to cover a large expense. If you do, check interest rates thoroughly—avoid racking up unnecessary debt. You may want to sit down with a financial advisor or a credit counselor to help reduce some of your monthly payments. Your new mantra: Clarity leads to prosperity.
HEALTH: MIND, BODY & SOUL:
Pack away your yoga mat and lace up your boxing gloves instead. You’ve
got some pent-up aggression to release—and a swift roundhouse
to the punching bag will do that a lot more effectively than “omm-ing” your
way into child’s pose or a baby cobra. On March 10th, energetic
Mars goes direct (forward) in your fitness sector. Vigorous cardio
is your new best friend, reacquainting you with that fierce, wild woman
within.
You’ve been carrying around stress since Mars went retrograde (backward) in your health sector on December 20th, and old aches and pains could have flared up during this cycle. Trade angst for endorphins by sweating it all out. Take a healthy cooking class or treat yourself to organic produce and whole foods that keep your energy high all day. Being “selfish” (in other words, putting your own needs first) is actually the most selfless thing you can do. When you take excellent care of yourself, everyone around you benefits. It transports you from complaining and helplessness into a space of power and action.
