March 2013 horoscope - Cancer

I follow the sidereal calendar; this is the monthly solar horoscope for birthdays from 16^th July to 15^th August or Cancer Ascendants and Moons

By Louise Gilbert

Cancer , after a couple of months where relationships were highlighted, you enter March with your mind and energies focused on areas such as joint finances, tax, inheritance – also money you keep hidden from others or vice versa -, bank loans for a mortgage and insurance. This could also relate to property matters including buying, selling, refurbishing, as this part of your life is undergoing some major changes over the next two years too. So, after the past couple of months when you and your partner – business or personal – were discussing the shape, limits and opportunities of your current relationship or, if you were single and you put an end to it, then March and April herald the next step in your partnership. 

 

You and a partner may have been trying to pull a new business off the ground and now is the time to sort out the paperwork around finances and sign on the dotted line. Alternatively, you may receive an insurance pay out or you are informed that you have overpaid some tax. In any, case, I feel that money is more likely to be coming your way than going in the opposite direction and the new Moon on 11^th March in this area of your chart is a new beginning. This is the time to start applying for bank loans, if you have not already done so. It may also be your growing network of friends, the wider business community in which you operate or your client base that help move things along to increase your bank balance. In this case, the new Moon is a good time to do some networking and hand out your business cards. You should see the results six months down the line. The only thing is that Mercury is still retrograde until 18^th March and in your case, there could be delays with paperwork coming through and communication around deadlines, conditions and the finer details could be a little blurry.

While these are some of the more tangible results, the area in your chart highlighted for the first part of the month also relates to intimacy, fears and anxieties. If some of these now come out of the woodwork, you’ll do best by facing them head on. With Saturn at the bottom of your chart shaking up your emotions, asking you to get rid of outdated emotional patterns, March can feel a little intense. For some of you, March may be the month when you seek some professional help to get rid of ghosts of the past – this, in fact, can be hugely beneficial for you now as you will have to go over some old ground in this area until July. 

The second half of the month will put you in a much more optimistic mood and after the intensity of February and early March, the planetary shifts into your 9^th house of world travel is a very welcome break. It the time of the year when you are quite keen to get away to a place that’s home from home for a little while. During this time, you are able to take a deep breath and look at the bigger picture rather than being drowned in paperwork or trying to make sense of the shifting foundations of your life (perhaps even literally your home or living situation). You may be keen to start a new course or you may suddenly find yourself pre-occupied with questions around religion and faith – anything that broadens your horizons, expands your knowledge base and increases your awareness what’s going on in the world.

The full Moon on 27^th March in Virgo could see you being a little restless and fidgety which may contribute to you wanting to get away for a bit. This full Moon opposes the Sun, Uranus, Mars and Venus, all of which square up to Pluto. Although squares are not very comfortable aspects, especially in the mutable signs, where we often have to put a lot of effort into solving issues and removing obstacles in the areas touched by the squares, I feel that this one is a more productive full Moon for your sign. Yes, of course, while you may finally decide to take on a course to change your job or start writing your memoirs, I feel that this full Moon alongside the squares has more of an impact on your opinions, ideas, beliefs – perhaps also work projects. 

Anywhere where you have to communicate, sort out paper work and articulate your thoughts may require some kind of a breakthrough. If you applied for a bank loan earlier on in the month or in February, then this may also be time when a conclusion is reached. Think about what began in late September 2011 with another milestone at the end of June 2012 and this should give you a clue as to what comes to a conclusion now or moves on to the next level.
