March 2022 Horoscopes: How to dance ecstatically in the face of death.
Hello dear ones,
March is here and though late winter is still holding us close to our hearths, the nearness of Spring is upon us.
The pot is stirring all around,
New life, new conflicts, new economies
Are boiling over onto the stove.
Indeed this month money and international conflict is heavy on everyone’s mind.
What can I tell you about what the future holds for these things?
Nothing!
But I can imagine with you.
I can walk side by side
Listening.
And I can offer you this:
No form of economy ever saved a person’s soul.
No form of violence ever healed a past wrong.
But maybe, just maybe, poetry can.
So this month I’ve written each of you a poem
based on what the stars have in store for you this month.
Consider this my love letter to you dear readers,
No matter what you are going through.
No matter what situation you are in.
You are a human being
And you can use any situation
to become wiser.

Astrology is a Tool for Self Reflection
Astrology is a tool we can use to take the temperature of the world and reflect on how we might respond to what’s happening both internally and externally in the world. It helps us pay attention to our physical and emotional states and opens us up to new ways of navigating our thoughts and actions.
Everything written here is meant to be used as a tool of reflection and self-awareness and not as a hard prediction of the future. The stars and planets do a lot of talking, but ultimately we each must decide our own path in life.

Aries (March 21 - April 19)
Last month: Your ruling planet Mars entered Aquarius, continuing your focus on responsibilities and career goals.
This month:
Happy Birthday Aries!
Sweet Aries darling, your season has begun.
This month you are like a cottontail peeking out from it’s cave
or a sprout courageously poking it’s green leafy body above the earth
trusting Spring has come.
Dreams come to you.
Your intuition can reveal hidden truths.
Wake up your trusting leaves and make a wish for your life.
Watch as the sun rises to meet you.
See how bold you are!
How fiercely independent!
You are not alone.
Your friends and your intuition support your efforts.
You support yourself.
You learn to turn sunshine into sugar
and drink deep of the sweetness of the earth.
Rejoice!
You are the fiercest friend you’ve ever had!
Taurus (April 20 - May 20)
Last month: You’ve been on a path of developing a strong sense of self and your confidence in your identity will help make this month an engaging, and productive time full of creativity. New channels of self expression are becoming available to you.
This month:
My sweet industrious cow
You wear a gold chain around your neck
And you think you are beautiful.
What could be beautiful about being chained?
You work so hard because
The grass is always greener
On the other side of the economic fence.
What is gold worth? Hmm?
What is a decoration worth?
Absolutely nothing.
But you my dear Taurus,
YOU are priceless.
You crave riches, gold and all the freedom you think it brings
You work hard, you toil for your little luxuries.
But what bliss can wages bring you?
What ecstatic joy do all the flowing silks of the world hold
that you could not have for yourself
when you get right with your mind and heart?
Kiss your own face in the mirror every morning and say
I am worth more than money!
I am worth more than every penny in every pocket
Of every trillionaire
I am a human being
And a human being is worth something.
I am an invaluable part of the world.
I am an invaluable part of nature.
This world is my home.
This home is my heaven.
I will grow love inside my body
Strip naked and run through the fields singing at the top of my lungs
I will decorate this heaven with sunflowers and tomatoes
I will grow the love inside my body
I will be ecstatic
Until my worth is undeniable to all
Especially me!
And then sweet love, sweet bullish dear,
If you must play some little game
If you must play some little societal role
To get the bread and the milk and the honey
Or to buy yourself some new bauble
Play it with a smile on your face
Knowing that you are so much more than this.
You are a human being.
And you are worth so much more than money
Or the gold chain around your neck
Or the millions of dollars that you are manifesting
So that you can treat your lovers
To weekends in the tropics.
My sweet Taurus,
You are a human being.
And even without all it’s decorations
A human being is worth something
All on it’s own.
Gemini (May 21 - June 20)
Last month: Money management plagues you. Avoid idolization. Recognize your many talents for the gifts they are.
This month:
Gregarious Gemini.
You upset the haters this month.
You upset your frenemies with your success.
Your relationship to yourself shapes your relationship to others.
Be careful with your mindset.
Be sure there is no frenemy living inside of you.
To suffer your losses is nothing to be ashamed of.
But to suffer your success…this is a terrible tragedy.
Success is hard work isn’t it?
Stop beating yourself up over silly things.
Stand up for yourself.
Especially when you have to stand up to yourself.
And hey, you’re not dead yet so
Celebrate!
Isn’t it beautiful to be alive!
So beautiful that others might fight to the death
Just to be here.
Cancer (June 21 - July 22)
Last Month: You spent last month looking under the hood, diagnosing the mechanical failures in your life and in your relationships and getting comfy talking about shared finances, deep personal changes and more.
This Month:
Dear Cancer,
Queen of the tides
Your poet heart calls to you.
It whispers inspiration into your ear
Like a lover asking you to bed.
Listen to her without hearing.
Know her without thinking.
See her without opening your eyes.
This is the way.
Do this and words pour from you
Crafting the current of your life.
The words you speak bring blessings
Bits of string and coin find their way to you
Like driftwood upon the sea.
Your intentions travel furthest
When you are clear as a compass.
You are a journey of discovery.
My sweet Cancer
Reach out your heart.
Taste the golden drops of wisdom which lie
In the delicate folds of the world’s body.
Repeat after me
I am love.
I am love.
Leo (July 23 - August 22)
Last month: You were you're helping, healing, and contributing to the world by channeling your passion into productive pursuits and continued on the theme of building a daily routine that supports your health and long-term goals.
This month:
Dear Leo,
Your heart is a signal fire
What signals are you sending?
If you want love
Be love.
If you want to be loved
Love others.
If you want soul bending orgasms
Give them to another.
Karma is not a b*tch sweet Leo.
Karma is a wheel,
What goes around,
Rolls back around.
You know this.
But just in case no one ever told you
I will tell you a secret.
If you want to get anywhere in this life…or the next
You must rig the karmic game
By filling your heart with kindness and love.
And if you want to climb a mountain…
Well, dear Leo,
You must first learn to climb.
Virgo (August 23 - September 22)
Last month: Was a critical one for you. Instead of cursing at the slow pace of things, just accept it as a sign from the universe that you need to rest.
This month:
Sweet Virgo,
Every moment you sit on your hands
Instead of rushing out that door at full speed
To go do that impractical thing
That sets your heart ablaze
Is one more moment of your life that has ticked away.
Make no mistake beloved,
It is not time that is ticking away
It is your life that is ticking away.
If life is precious to you than you must do something with it
And knowing you, you will find something useful to do with it.
Of this we can be certain.
Run out that f*cking door with your heart blazing
Run out into the street and start shouting and singing
With tears of joy streaming down your face.
Kiss the soft body of the rain as it falls
Roll in the mud
Laugh hysterically at the thought
That every moment is a new chance to be fully alive
To be fully alive is to drip sweetness every moment of your life.
No one teaches a bee how to make honey,
There is no need to.
The bee is alive in a big way.
And to be alive is to create sweetness.
It is only miserable people who must be taught how to live.
Transform your mindset
Release perfectionism and materialism
Life is chaos, it likes messiness
If you do not like messiness that is not life’s fault.
Transcend your concerns and instead be ecstatic
That you are alive.
Repeat after me:
I am alive.
I am alive
Libra (September 23 - October 22)
Lat month: Your ruling planet, loving Venus finally exited retrograde and the energy in your life shifted in a big way.
This month:
Tenacious Libra,
You love to be witnessed.
And so you surround yourself
With those that can see your heart.
But do you see them?
Or are you focused inward?
I only ask sweet one,
For things are shifting, as I think you know.
Life is chaos and chaos is change
And change is inevitable after all.
Change is not a problem.
There are no problems in life
Only possibilities.
Sharpen the loving dagger of your self-reliance
For those moments when you find yourself making dinner for one.
You might be chopping up potatoes alone
But you can still sweeten the soup with love my dear Libra.
Cherish yourself dear one.
Cherish your inner witness
Cherish your body and it’s abilities
Cherish your heart and it’s passions
Cherish your mind and it’s intelligence
Cherish your spirit and it’s unbreakable nature.
Show yourself care.
Because
You are enough.
You are more than enough.
You are the best partner you could have in this life.
Hold yourself close and never let go.
Scorpio (October 23 - November 21)
Last month: You took a hands-on approach to communications, creativity, learning and self-expression.
This month:
Terrifying and beautiful Scorpio,
The whole world is transfixed when they look upon you!
They long to fall hopelessly in love beneath the lash of your tongue.
And you, knowing this, lash at them strategically
Tickling their desires,
Soothing their fears,
Piercing their hearts with poison-laced daggers.
But aw, you see life is like this Scorpio
If you let a deadly snake loose in your house
It’s going to bite somebody!
This is all fine
If you can joyfully face the consequence of your action.
But if you cannot joyfully face
the death of your roommates, family, or friends
Then you must not let that snake loose!
This is the simplest thing!
This is the simplest thing to understand!
You see sweet Scorpio,
If you wish to persuade a bee, or a bear, or a lover,
It is best to use a pot of honey.
If the goal is to have a sanctuary in others
Then you must treat them as a sanctuary.
If the goal is to have a home that is a sanctuary
Then you must treat it as such.
Everyone knows this, yes.
And yet many words laced with poison
Have been written upon those temple doors
And it takes an awful lot of earnest scrubbing
To wash them clean.
But there is no other way to do it!
So joyfully get your elbows wet
In the name of love.
Laugh at yesterday's squabbles
And forgive yourself and others in an instant
By knowing you are alive
And you are doing the best you can.
Sagittarius (November 22 - December 21)
Last month: Your mind was curious this month and lines of connection, travel, communication, and learning began opening up to you as a result and you did lots of exploring related to your creativity, business ventures, and home improvements.
This month:
Daring Sagittarius,
Stand as still as a heron at the water's edge
Wait for the frogs to come out of hiding
Plunge in head first laughing hysterically.
Kissing your reflection as you fall.
Fall deep into that well of gratitude
Let it hold you.
Embody yourself.
Notice now, how you feel, when the mud settles
Open your eyes and see how the world looks from this angle
How the trees have gone wobbly, your lover’s grin magnified.
Hold your breath for a moment and see how in the stillness
clarity comes rushing forward to greet you.
When you rise to the surface
What will spill out?
No more holding out,
Spill sweet Sagittarius!
Let truth flow from you
Like a river
Destined for the Ocean
Fated to the skies!
The Universe is listening!
It wants to give you what you focus on.
So focus your mind!
Focus your heart!
Focus your Spirit!
Then spill sweet Sagittarius!
Spill the beans until the whole world is fed
And your heart is so full
That you are bursting with every beat!
Capricorn (December 22 - January 19)
Last month: You sought personal fulfillment, comfort, additional resources, and satisfying conversations.
This month:
Busy Capricorn,
Mind the stove!
You are boiling over,
Pour a little out and
See how nicely the spaghetti is cooking?
Much better.
You tend to fill your life to the brim
Seeing an opportunity in each moment
To accomplish something
What are you trying to accomplish?
A life well spent no doubt.
Full of accomplishments no doubt.
But what about the rest of it?
Turn life into a beautiful process for yourself
And you will never lament a single mistake you make.
If you are tired you need not toil, rest.
Sit as still as a heron at the waters edge,
Waiting for lunch to go swimming by.
When lunch comes,
Dive in!
If you miss it and lunch escapes, do not cry.
There is not need to worry about what we cannot or do not do in life
We need only do what we can do.
Life is about involvement not uninvolvement.
And if lunch gets away today so what?
You can still enjoy the reflection of the clouds on the water.
Devote yourself to falling in love with the process of life.
If you do this you will be filled with purpose.
You will not need to justify anything, regret anything, fear anything.
You will be ecstatic for even your failures will become success.
The process of life is not always easy.
Yes, there is suffering here in this heaven.
But you are alive.
Say it!
I am alive!
I am fully alive!
Feel the joy rising in you!
Aquarius (January 20 - February 18)
Last month: You turned over a new leaf and focused in on your personal spheres of relaxation, retreat, and healing.
This month:
Angelic Aquarius,
How like the beloved you are,
Full of ferocity, justice, and clarity!
Your high ideals are a lifestyle
And others will admire you for it!
But what is admiration from others
Without admiration for your self, your mind, your body, your heart!
Your intelligence must not be allowed to turn against you.
You must take control of this machine.
Reprogram yourself if you must!
Just be sure not to overwrite your successes!
Put down your phone.
Eat a salad.
Know that each leaf is as alive as you are.
Know that each being on this Earth is as alive as you are.
Know that you are fully alive
And it is only natural for that which is fully alive
To be in love with the process of life.
You are humanity’s lighthouse dear Aquarius!
You must be up to the task!
When others lose themselves you do not.
When others are lost, you guide them back to shore!
But first dear Aquarius,
You must learn to swim in perfect harmony with yourself.
You must become a practice of a living humanity
That can expand its boundaries
To include all beings.
Understand that you are included in this.
You are a part of the world you want to save.
And when you do something for yourself
Say you take a nice bath or spend an afternoon in the sun
If the shame finds you, you need only ask
Is this bringing well being to myself and all others around me?
Is it not so?
Then shout, sing, dance to the tune of
Yes!
Yes!
A thousand times Yes!
Pisces (February 19 - March 20)
Happy Birthday, Pisces!
Last month: You leaned into freedom of expression, moving forward with your interests, and re-orienting yourself to being more open to connection in March.
This month:
Sweet beloved Pisces,
What has this season taught you?
What wisdom or wounds have you gained
While swimming in the depths of this dream.
No more shouting into the pillow
Crying yourself to sleep.
Toiling for things you care nothing for.
Stand up to your inner critic!
Offer your heart empathy.
Align your values with your lifestyle.
You do not need money to be happy
What you need is safety, what you need is love.
I see you out here,
I know you long to be known.
How are you to be known
If you are always hiding beneath the surface?
Burst free and greet the surface Pisces!
Rise, rise for the deep!
Feel the strength of your heart,
Feel the strength of your resolve,
Feel the strength of your voice!
Your friends have all gathered here to hear you sing.
Sing the song of your heart!
Sing the song of your love!
Sing of your laughter!
Invite them to join you in the chorus!
Revel in this human experience!
It is to be experienced, it is to be enjoyed!
Fall in love with yourself!
Fall in love with life!
Because, it is not forever, you know this:
One day, your will dissolve into this Earth.
But until then you are alive!
Chant this in your heart
And happiness will follow you
I am alive!
I am alive!
I am fully alive!
