Overview
Eventful, deadly, and turbulent month of March
Russian invasion of Ukraine, deadly war and senseless killing
The conjunction of Mars, Pluto, and Saturn (all three malefic planets) in Capricorn is happening first time since Pluto was discovered around 1932. While Mars-Saturn-Pluto conjunction in Capricorn lasts till the April 7, Mars-Pluto close conjunction during the first week of March and Mars-Saturn close conjunction during the last week of March are likely to be extremely explosive and devastating for the world and especially for Ukraine and Russia. Some of the manifestations of these conjunctions will be reflected in Russian invasion of Ukraine, unsettling climate due to political turmoil in USA, Europe, and other areas of world. The human casualties and sufferings in Ukraine and other places can become huge beyond our imagination and uncontrollable.
Political turmoil in the United States (March 20-25)
In addition to Mars-Saturn-Pluto conjunction as detailed above, during March 20-25, Mars squares Uranus. This square may prove to be politically very intensive and deadly for most of nations, but especially for the United States. Political turmoil, changes in cabinet member appointments, political instability due to sharp increase in friction between the republicans and democrats are the real possibilities.
Spikes in Relationship Breakups (March 1-20)
After being direct in motion on January 28, Venus is still catching up to reach her average speed of a degree per day. It will take the entire month of March before that happens. In addition, since about mid-February, Mars has been in a very close conjunction with Venus within a degree in the sidereal Sagittarius. Beginning March, they (Mars and Venus) both simultaneously enter the sidereal Capricorn and within a couple of days (March 2-5) they both simultaneously conjunct explosive Pluto in Capricorn. Despite being in the exalted sign, Mars in Capricorn from relationship standpoint is in his adversary Saturn’s sign. And with Pluto, the energy of impulsive, aggressive, vicious, and capricious Mars can become explosively crazy. Being with Venus it’s certainly deeply affects even a sound relationship depending on the Mars and Venus disposition in a natal chart. As a result, it wouldn’t be surprising to see an unprecedented spike in relationship breakups during the first three weeks of March.
