Aries March 2016 Monthly Horoscope On March 5th, Mercury enters water sign Pisces, and you can keep more of your thoughts and opinions to yourself for now. You may want to take your time thinking things over without any interference from anyone, and you can find other people drain you mentally, so you prefer to think about things alone. Your imagination can be more active, and you can become privy to a secret or two. You can also think more about the past, old issues, and subconscious motivations for your decisions. On March 12th, Venus joins Mercury in Pisces, and you can enjoy the time you spend alone and away from demanding people, projects, or decisions. Your creative side can be stimulated, and you may drawn to the arts. You can be in tune with your intuition and soul, and focus on your spiritual self. In love, you can be affectionate behind closed doors, or keep your feelings to yourself for now. If single, this can be a time of dreaming about a fantasy but not doing anything about it yet, and if in a relationship, you can be willing to make sacrifices for your partner you normally wouldn’t. Make sure they’re worth it first. General horoscopes are always meant for entertainment purposes only. For a more accurate view, read your Sun sign, Rising sign, and Moon sign.
Aries: With Venus entering Pisces on the 12th, you can be quieter in love and keep your affections to yourself. You’re a little more shy with your feelings, and you don’t want to show anything in public. The lunar eclipse on the 23rd occurs in your relationship sector, and things can come to a head in a relationship, and you decide to commit further or let go. A relationship that has been under the gun for the last few years can be specially under pressure now, and this can be the time to make a choice.

Aries: With the Sun and Mercury entering your sign midmonth, you can focus on the new projects, ventures, and ideas you want to pursue over the next year of your life. You can take the first steps, feeling energized and enthusiastic about them, and you’re ready to go. You can be more courageous, and willing to go where no one else has gone before. You can benefit from your social network during the first half of the month, and benefit from working on your own during the second half. It’s eclipse time! March brings with it the first set of eclipses in 2016. The first is a solar eclipse on March 8th at 8:54PM ET in Pisces, and this eclipse wants us to embrace compassion, empathy, intuition, and a gentle approach. We have more energy and enthusiasm and drive, but we want to make sure we’re being considerate with whatever we do. It’s not the time to stomp all over someone to get what you want. It’s better to lend helping hands wherever you can instead, and work to help others anywhere you can. This eclipse is square (hard aspect, 3 signs away) Saturn in Sagittarius, so we can struggle at times with responsibility, and with balancing duty and freedom. We can be a little unsure of our goals or lack a clear direction, but we know we’re going somewhere. We just need to trust our gut - the Pisces way of doing things! This eclipse is also opposite Jupiter in Virgo, which is exact on March 3rd (and on July 13th), acting as a trigger for the eclipse energy. This is just 5 days before the eclipse, so we have some strong energy as this eclipse is occurring, and it’s front and center in our minds. Jupiter is the planet of expansion and growth, so we can see a lot of things (or people) blowing up (hopefully figuratively!) with the opposition to Jupiter. Some good things become great, and some bad things become terrible. Try to go for the good. Let your intuition guide you . . . This solar eclipse occurs at 18 degrees 55 minutes Pisces. The aspects for this eclipse are: Conjunction: 13 degrees 55 minutes - 23 degrees 55 minutes Pisces Semisextile: 16 degrees 55 minutes - 20 degrees 55 minutes Aquarius or Aries Sextile: 13 degrees 55 minutes - 23 degrees 55 minutes Taurus or Capricorn Square: 13 degrees 55 minutes - 23 degrees 55 minutes Gemini or Sagittarius Trine: 13 degrees 55 minutes - 23 degrees 55 minutes Cancer or Scorpio Quincunx: 16 degrees 55 minutes - 20 degrees 55 minutes Leo or Libra Opposition: 13 degrees 55 minutes - 23 degrees 55 minutes Virgo Then we have a lunar eclipse on March 23rd at 7:01AM ET in Libra. This is the third lunar eclipse in three years in Libra, and the last for some years to come. Finally, a break for the Libras! You’ve undergone a major shift over the last 3 years, and all of us have undergone major shifts in our relationships, the way we relate and connect, our views of commitment, approaches to compromise, how we balance our lives, and how we can become fairer. No surprise that during these 3 years we’ve seen same-sex marriage legalized, the Black Lives Matter movement spotlighting discrimination, even something like the Iran deal (though who knows if that will stick!). All very Libra! And while emotions have been charged with Libra-ruled situations, we will have Jupiter enter Libra later this year and bring in some nice energy for them. Nice! Here’s the funny thing about this eclipse - it won’t be triggered by Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, or Pluto in 2016. In fact, the only major trigger was by Mars on November 18th 2015! So we might feel like this eclipse has less energy, especially since the solar eclipse will have big energy. It can just come and go, passing with the wind . . . The lunar eclipse is opposite Mercury in Aries though, so we do need to watch our words and swallow down hurtful, angry speech. Remember Thumper’s mom: If you don’t have anything nice to say, don’t say anything at all! This lunar eclipse occurs at 3 degrees 17 minutes Libra. The aspects for this lunar eclipse are: Conjunction: 0 degrees 17 minutes - 8 degrees 17 minutes Libra Semisextile: 1 degree 17 minutes - 5 degrees 17 minutes Leo or Sagittarius Sextile: 0 degrees 17 minutes - 8 degrees 17 minutes Virgo or Scorpio Square: 0 degrees 17 minutes - 8 degrees 17 minutes Cancer or Capricorn Trine: 0 degrees 17 minutes - 8 degrees 17 minutes Gemini or Aquarius Quincunx: 1 degree 17 minutes - 5 degrees 17 minutes Taurus or Pisces Opposition: 0 degrees 17 minutes - 8 degrees 17 minutes Aries Note: A solar eclipse is a new moon and a lunar eclipse is a full moon that occurs within 18 1/2 degrees of the lunar nodes.

If it seems like you’re always dealing with drama in your love life, it could be because you have some love karma that you need to work out. Where can I find love karma in my natal chart?
So where do you find the possible love karma you may have? There are a few places karma is located in the natal chart, but some of the main ones will be found with the:
- 12th house - South Node - asteroid Karma (number 3811) If you have your 12th house cusp, South Node, or asteroid Karma in: - Libra (sign of committed relationships) or Scorpio (sign of intimacy), this can show having love karma you need to work on So can having your South Node or asteroid Karma: - in the 7th house (of committed relationships) or 5th house (of love) - conjunct your natal Venus And so can having your natal Venus in the 12th house, conjunct the North Node (so opposite the South Node), conjunct Pluto (heavy planet), or square your Lunar Nodes. In Vedic astrology, Saturn is considered the Lord of Karma, and he does show areas where we have lessons to learn, so you can have some love karma to deal with if you have Saturn in Libra or Scorpio, in the 5th or 7th houses, or conjunct, square, or opposite your natal Venus. What does having love karma mean? Am I destined to be alone?!
Having love karma doesn’t necessarily mean that you’re doomed, but it does show you have to work through some extra blocks to have healthy love and relationships in your life.
Your love karma could be soul baggage that you need to work on releasing. Meditation, chakra or aura cleansing, or energy therapy can be helpful. Often, having any of these placements can show that you have not just soul baggage, but baggage you’ve taken on in this life as well, so you have to also work on whatever blocks have been created in this life before you can have the love you want and deserve. Once you do work through the karma and baggage, you actually have the potential to create incredible bonds with others, and form love relationships that are connected so deeply on a spiritual level. This is often the reason why you have love karma in the first place. You have to work through it as a test before you can have the incredible love you're capable of having.
