Libra

Libra (Ruling Planet: Venus; Element: Air) You, Libra, are the charming, tactful one. You have a magnetism about you. Socially, you are gifted. You can talk your way out of anything, and justice is a valued virtue to The Scales. But like most air signs, you can become detached and unreliable. You’re so indecisive sometimes that, more often than not, you bail completely, and you don’t do well with confrontation.

There’s a plethora of planets and stars touring through Pisces this month, and all this water is sure to make any routines or plans you make go swimmingly. Especially during the first half of the month, when Mercury and Venus enter the water sign (on March 5th & 12th, respectively), details, organization, and smaller tasks will feel like easier things on which to focus. You’ll benefit from doing things on a daily basis. In love, you’ll crave practicality, and a partner who pays attention to all the little things. With Mars’ position in Sagittarius starting on the 5th, any thoughts and information will be easier to share, but be sure not to overshare. When Mercury leaves Pisces and enters Aries on the 21st, however, this communicative energy will be best used while negotiating, compromising, and being considerate. And with our Sun in Aries (your opposite on the zodiac) at this time too, you’ll be wanting an equal with which to share this harmonious energy. Ok but let’s not overlook the first set of eclipses this year. First, on March 8th, a solar eclipse in Pisces occurs in your work sector— good energy for creating a comfortable workplace. If you need a change in your work life, take this opportunity to do it. The solar happening also touches on your health sector, which may just prompt a health kick within the next 6 months. Later, a lunar eclipse in your sign (1 of 3 in the last couple years), will be the last lunar eclipse to occur in Libra for some time. This one’s all about processing and eliminating any negative emotions, and moving onto the next chapter. Just be sure not to let Saturn in retrograde muck up your sense of balance and control.

Your March Trax:

With that upcoming healthkick in mind, you should probably listen to Anti— it’s explosive, maybe just explosive enough to get your physical form in ~motion~. If you can’t stand Rihanna– first of all, how?! Secondly, Madonna’s always here for you. And if you can’t stand Madonna’s music, there’s no hope for you. There is, though, the super experimental rock reccomend: Battles 2015 record, La Di Da Di. And for something completely different, listen to this sick metal song by The Sword.
