MARS DIRECT, PISCES NEW MOON, VENUS RETROGRADE & MERCURY ENTERS ARIES: FROM CHAOS COMES CLARITY!

TUNE IN TO https://www.karmicevolution.com/astrologically-speaking to hear up to date Astro News You Can Use by Sheri Horn Hasan who discusses the deeper meanings of March’s upcoming whirlwind of heavenly events!
This podcast looks back at how the ideological fundamentalism of last month’s Aquarius New Moon & Leo Full Moon square Uranus & Juno has shifted our major alliances. And how the February 27 Pisces New Moon planted seeds of greater empathy for those negatively affected by an idealistic Aquarian vision carried out in haste that's causing shifts in perspective & allegiances.
Mars' station direct on February 23 has provided the martial impetus and the energy for our newly awakened inner warrior to rise up and take action to protect not only ourselves but those less able to defend & protect themselves. As it gains speed, however, Mars is currently giving us all even more reason to fight against the new U.S. administration’s attempts to eliminate diversity, equity, & inclusion in its military & to decimate our legal & other governmental foundations. 
Mars' influence became obvious with the recent firings of the U.S. Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, a Black man & the Chief of Naval Operations Admiral Lisa Franchetti, the first woman to hold the post and the first female member of the Joint Chiefs. Mars full speed ahead also resulted in the firing of three judge advocates general, also known as “JAGs”--who provide independent legal advice to senior military officers so that they do not run afoul of U.S. law or the laws of armed conflict. 
The danger here lies with the fact that the current commander in chief of the armed forces is Donald Trump, who during his last administration wanted to use the military to shoot Black Lives Matter protestors. He is now setting the stage to be able to do exactly that—next time protestors take to the streets.
Then there’s Venus stationing retrograde March 1 through April 12, when Venus will move back from Aries into Pisces. This is a period during which--according to Jungian astrologer Erin Sullivan in her book “Retrograde Planets”--we begin a time of global review. 
Between now and the inferior conjunction of the Aries Sun with Venus retrograde on March 22, & its heliacal rising March 28/29, is when “the reconsideration of what is diplomatic, & what is necessary to maintain a balanced world view & sense of integrity, is precisely what happens” to us both individually & collectively, Sullivan says. Both she and astrologer Bruce Scofield have predicted certain events may happen during this time—tune in to find out more!


Mercury's entrance into Mars-ruled Aries March 3 adds some fuel to the fire of any backlash against what's happening now & what may occur during Venus's retrograde period. On March 11 the two will conjoin in Aries. Given that Mercury's communication & Venus rules finances, is it possible a budget reconciliation plan will be agreed upon & passed by the U.S. Congress before a looming shut down on March 14 when the first eclipse of the season hits?
And might this budget plan cause even more distress as major portions of U.S. citizen's safety nets--be they Medicaid, Medicare, Social Security, or simply your job as a federal employee or through a federally funded grant--be axed from the new budget? 


This podcast reviews also the deeper meaning of transiting Uranus in Taurus--as Venus, the current dispositor of Uranus, will retrograde through Mars-ruled Aries starting March 1—& we enter  a period of review of our core values. We discuss how Uranus in Taurus since 2018 has changed our relationships to others, to our work/jobs, to our resources over time, and how Uranus, the planet of unexpected change, is headed back to conjoin “off with his head” fixed star Algol circa May 4.
It's clear that heads have been rolling all over the place--both gl
