Your Daily Horoscopes for Monday, March 28th

 

Aries

Aries Horoscope
Aries

This is a day in which you may be itching to do, feel, or experience something new today, dear Aries, with the Moon in your adventure sector aligning with Mars. You might also feed a hunger for knowledge, but you can be especially desirous of taking action, so you could be learning through experience or meditating in motion. You could find it easier than usual to go after what you want today, and it’s likely that few if any will interfere. You might get fired up about a belief or idea today. You’re a natural leader, making it an opportune time to take the initiative.

Taurus

Taurus

Emotions can be inflamed but internalized today, dear Taurus. This can be an especially passionate time, and possibly an exciting day on intimate or emotional levels. Daydreaming of intense or passionate experiences can figure strongly for some of you. This can also be a good time for productivity, research, and analysis. The need for more glamor, mystery, or emotional excitement in your life is strong. Matters of ownership can also be a big issue now. You may be more sensitive to imbalances of power or to inequalities today.

Gemini

Gemini

The Moon aligns with Mars in your opposite sign today, dear Gemini, which can point to more demands placed on you from other people or animated interactions and feelings in your relationships. For some, a significant encounter might occur. Important players in your life may be demanding attention or holding the power now, at the very least over your attention. The truth is, you’ll get a fuller picture of your own issues if you take another’s point of view into account. Any conflict stirred now may be more about what you’re not accepting in yourself than about other people or outside circumstances. Although overly hasty or rash actions taken now could rebound on you, some healthy risk-taking could simply help you to break the routine and get you out of a rut.

Cancer

Cancer

This can be an especially productive time for work, health, and practical affairs, dear Cancer. You’re focusing on the flaws, problems, and details, and completely ready to take action to correct and manage issues with the Moon in alignment with Mars in your work and routine sector today. This can be a great time for taking action on a health or work matter, although some of you might be a little too impulsive now. There can be a strong desire or sudden need to become more organized and efficient. If you are feeling especially angry, frustrated, or restless, it would be wise to find little projects and things to do so that you can channel excess energy constructively.

Leo

Leo

The Moon transits your sector of entertainment and romance, dear Leo, and aligns with Mars there, firing up your passions in a mostly pleasant way. Your desire nature and your emotions are cooperating beautifully just now, which increases your resourcefulness and independence. You can more confidently rely on your instincts now, and you react well to competition, although there can be some impatience or impulsiveness to deal with. Not much can get in your way today, except perhaps concerns about finances, so take advantage. There can be a stronger need for applause or approval, and you are quite likely to receive the attention you seek.

Virgo

Virgo Symbol/Glyph
Virgo

You are especially hungry for nurturing, support, and comfort today, dear Virgo, and especially willing to work for it or to go out of your way for these experiences. You can feel particularly motivated to make personal improvements. Your senses are working overtime now. Your feelings are all fired up today, and your need for action is stirred, although you may not know exactly where to direct excess energy. It could also be a rather passionate time, simply because, for the time being, you tend to be ruled by your passions. Seek out ways to improve your home life or enjoy family activities if possible today.

Libra

Libra Glyph-Symbol
Libra

There can be a busy, buzzing theme to the day, dear Libra, as the Moon and Mars line up in your communications sector. There can be many projects and activities that you are juggling now. There can be more spontaneity in your communications, which can be a good thing if you can benefit from some courage to express yourself, but could also lead to impulsive speech or responses. There can be a nice feeling of camaraderie with a partner or friend. Working on a communications project with someone can be especially successful right now. You are more in tune with your natural impulses, and less inclined to think things through before taking action.

Scorpio

Scorpio Symbol Glyph
Scorpio

This can be a strong day for feeling comfortable in the world of the five senses, dear Scorpio, for tending to prized personal possessions, and for producing in work and career. A business or money matter may now grab your attention, and you may be especially interested in taking action on a problem area. This can be a very resourceful time when you are inclined to make the most of what you have. You may be over-identifying with what you have and own, and you could be trying to prove yourself (your worth) to others today, so that conflicts might arise surrounding issues or respect or ownership. However, you’re also very concerned about quick resolutions.

Sagittarius

Sagittarius Glyph Symbol
Sagittarius

Today is strong for taking the initiative, dear Sagittarius. It’s an emotionally courageous day with the Moon in your sign and aligning with Mars, also in your sign, and perhaps a little impatient at times as well. You have the self-confidence and backbone to go after what you want, generally without backlash or interference from others. You are more resourceful and less demanding of people around you, and others respect your boundaries and independence now. You may have more energy than usual to want to organize or oversee projects, to take the lead, particularly on creative levels, and to pursue your desires, such as romantic ones. Your emotions intensify and you instinctively desire change and adventure.

Capricorn

Capricorn Symbol/Glyph
Capricorn

With Mars and the Moon aligning in your privacy sector today, dear Capricorn, much of your energy is channeled into private matters, and a lot can be going on behind the scenes! You may not be content to only think about the past, but you might also want to take action on a matter that has been brewing for some time. Emotional energy must never be underestimated, as it can impact physical energy tremendously, up or down. Use this time well by focusing on renewal, regeneration, and healing. Much of your energy is channeled into private, family, and home matters.

Aquarius

Aquarius

You may be itching to do something new and unusual today, dear Aquarius, and to take the initiative. While you tend to be quite independent-minded today, group activities and cooperative efforts are the best way to achieve your goals at the moment. You could be in the position to defend someone or a cherished ideal. You might benefit from sharing some of your knowledge or expertise with associates. Your insights are progressive, and others can appreciate your input. Take the time to do little favors for others that boost their spirits. New ideas abound now.

Pisces

Pisces

This is a day for feeling large and in charge, dear Pisces. You can have a rush of desire to take action on a business goal or responsibility, and can feel especially strong and content once you’ve accomplished something practical. The Moon is in your career and reputation sector and aligns with Mars, and if you feel things heating up in your career or feel a strong desire to set some long-term goals, you’re very much in tune. Feeling as if all eyes are on you can in fact give you a jump-start or wake-up call to areas of your life in which you’ve been a little slack. For the most part, you can do well under pressure today.

Your Weekly Love Horoscopes for March 28th

 

 

 

 

All Weekly Love Horoscopes

 

  • General Horoscope

    There isn’t much romance in the sky this week. In fact, the communication energy will be so erratic that it’s possible your brain will be too fried to enjoy love potential anyway. Steer clear of touchy conversations with your mate since Mercury will square Pluto on Wednesday and conjunct erratic Uranus on Thursday. Words can slice, dice and rattle. Ouch!

  • Aries Horoscope MAR 21 – APR 19

    Your bark might be as bad as your bite. There doesn’t seem to be a way for you to hold back when it comes to speaking your mind. As a result, it’s possible that you’ll hurt your partner’s feelings if you wind up discussing a sensitive topic. You may only be interested in your view of the situation so instead of fanning the flames, it might be best if you just talk to yourself this week and refrain from heavy conversation with anyone else.

  • Taurus Horoscope APR 20 – MAY 20

    If you and your partner have a conversation early in the week — no later than Tuesday — it should go well. In particular, the topic is likely to revolve around a joint financial matter. This could be research the two of you are conducting to determine whether or not you want to make a certain investment. It might also be a “hush hush” conversation about your shared resources that you want to keep secret from the rest of the world. That’s fine — it’s nobody else’s business anyway.

  • Gemini Horoscope MAY 21 – JUN 20

    Speak up quickly if there’s an important conversation you need to have with your partner. Tuesday is the deadline because after that, communication will be haywire for everyone. The good news is that you’ll have a special buffer on Tuesday if you and your partner are discussing anything connected to your shared long term dreams. Make a plan together and know that you’ll both be determined to see it through.

  • Cancer Horoscope JUN 21 – JUL 22

    Speaking your mind freely this week might cost you big time in the relationship department. Do your best to avoid engaging in any type of power struggle dialogue with your mate. Although you may be quite tempted to use your words as a deadly weapon, take a step back and consider what is more important to you — the last word or your relationship? Act accordingly.

  • Leo Horoscope JUL 23 – AUG 22

    If you thought you and your sweetie saw eye to eye on the big picture, think again. It’s possible that you’ll discover your partner is ready to explore a new world view, or, that you’re the one thirsty to expand your horizons in a different direction. Radical departure from one way of thinking doesn’t have to drive a wedge in your relationship. Only if you allow it.

  • Virgo Horoscope AUG 23 – SEP 22

    A biting remark from your sweetheart will certainly rub you the wrong way. You might be tempted to retaliate with a few strong words of your own. If your aim is to hurt your partner, reconsider before you express something you can’t take back. A war of words will only deteriorate your relationship. Knowing that communication may be tense this week, why not be proactive instead? Refuse to participate in any nasty dialogue.

  • Libra Horoscope SEP 23 – OCT 22

    A conversation with your mate about a domestic matter may quickly turn into a war of words. Neither you nor your partner wants to give up control over the situation. At the same time however, it’s obvious that if you’re not willing to work together nothing will get resolved. Do your best to welcome original ideas your partner has instead of shooting them down immediately. There might be a nugget of gold in one of them.

  • Scorpio Horoscope OCT 23 – NOV 21

    Love planet Venus might still be moving through your romance sector, but this week you might be too distracted to enjoy any pleasure it would otherwise offer. Tension at work may lead to ugly conversations that become more of a problem than you anticipate. As a result, there might not be much room for fun and games this week. At least allow your lover to comfort you if you’re going through distress. Thankfully, he or she won’t be the source of your problem.

  • Sagittarius Horoscope NOV 22 – DEC 21

    Silence might be your strongest weapon this week. Unfortunately, it appears it might be impossible for you to remain quiet — especially if there’s something you want to say to your lover. Realize that, although communication is important, HOW you convey your message is key. If you present information in a way that leaves your sweetheart on the defensive, you won’t make any progress. If you start to feel as if your lover is shutting you out, ask yourself if it’s because you’re pushing too hard with words.

  • Capricorn Horoscope DEC 22 – JAN 19

    You might be on-edge this week and if so, it’ll be best to keep a low profile. If you must communicate about an important situation with your partner, remember that your words are extra potent now and might be intimidating or off-putting. As a result, your partner may feel as if you’re barking orders or ultimatums rather than having a conversation. Ask yourself — are you?

  • Aquarius Horoscope JAN 20 – FEB 18

    If your social life has any chance to reveal itself this week, it’ll have to be before Wednesday. Mercury and Saturn will link up on Tuesday, allowing you and an old friend to have a solid and realistic conversation. If you need advice about your love life this will be the time to ask. After Wednesday, you might be all over the place mentally. Well-meaning guidance from anyone at this point will only feel like a verbal attack.

  • Pisces Horoscope FEB 19 – MAR 20

    Despite the harsh communication energy, do your best to enjoy Venus in Pisces as much as possible. Since this is the last week love planet Venus will be in your sign and you just don’t want to waste it. She won’t be back for another year so be sure to step out and be your gorgeous, dazzling self. There might be little room for light-hearted conversations but that doesn’t mean you still can’t have some fun. Work it!

Weekly Astrology: March 28 – April 3, 2016

Use your words wisely

It’s all about communication this week, and more important than ever — timing is everything!

 

Tuesday, March 29: Mercury trine Saturn

Tuesday will be your deadline to make important strides in business meetings, conversations, or negotiations. Pitch an idea to your boss on Monday or Tuesday the latest. Mercury trine Saturn will help you convey ideas responsibly and with authority. Your words will not gain you any respect however after this day.

 

Wednesday, March 30: Mercury square Pluto

 

Thursday, March 31: Mercury conjunct Uranus

On Wednesday, Mercury squares off with Pluto and on Thursday, he’ll conjunct Uranus. This is erratic and explosive mental energy. At best, you’ll be consumed with a brilliant idea that you’re tempted to shove down everyone’s throat. At worst? You’ll really aggravate others with your words. Proceed with caution!

DAILY MAGICKAL APPLICATIONS FOR MONDAY

♦Los Guardianes♦
DAILY MAGICKAL APPLICATIONS FOR MONDAY

Monday is named after the moon. The Latin term for Monday is Dies Lunae (“moon’s day”); in the Old English language, this day was Monandaeg; in Greek, it was Hermera Selenes. All of these different names and languages translate to the same thing: the “day of the moon.”

Working with the different phases of the moon is an important skill that takes a bit of time for Witches to learn. So why not cut to the chase and experiment with the day of the week that is dedicated to the moon in all of its magickal energies and aspects?

Magickally, Monday encourages the lunar energies of inspiration, illusion, prophetic dreams, emotions, psychic abilities, travel, women’s mysteries, and fertility.

The Sacrifice of Tombs/St. Mark’s Eve

According to the cosmological text, De Pascha Computus, written in 243 A.D., the sun and moon were created on Wednesday, March 28. This was also the date of the nativity of Jesus of Nazareth before it was changed by the Catholics at Rome, in 336 A.D., and again by the Orthodox at Constantinople 377 A.D.

March 28 was the date of the old Roman festival of The Sacrifice of Tombs, when the departed ancestors were remembered and honored, similar to present-day Catholic services in cemeteries on All Souls’ Day. This is also St. Mark’s Day, a time of divination, when the other world is a little more accessible than usual.

The Elements and Qualities of Sagittarius

Gothic fantasy
The Elements and Qualities of Sagittarius

The Elements and Qualities of Astrology are the fundamental building blocks of cosmic construction that describe what the different signs consider important and how they approach their first, basic concept of “what life is like … what it’s all about.”

With this information, you gain a new perspective on “why the signs are the way they are” — just as you can understand a friend or loved one better when you know his history and can at least appreciate — if not share — his central values. These things certainly are the personality components that define who he really is.

When the sign you’re examining is one of your own — especially one of your three major character indicators … Sun Sign, Moon Sign or Ascendant Sign … you gain more insight into your own being. With this knowledge, comes a much deeper grasp of why you are the way you are … and how to develop and profit from your innate character qualities.

When the Moon Is in Sagittarius

Gothic fantasy
When the Moon Is in Sagittarius

In Astrology, when the Moon is in Sagittarius as it travels through the sky, it brings a certain emotional tone to the day’s mood and the kind of events it may contain. The Moon in Sagittarius affects the attitudes and responses of everyone everywhere and colors the whole climate of life for that time.

The Moon in Astrology is the metaphor which symbolizes an individual’s inner, feeling-based personality. The Moon travels through the entire Zodiac every month, changing signs roughly every two and a half days.

Sagittarius is a Fire Sign. The Fire Signs in Astrology are Aries, Leo, and Sagittarius. This is the quality associated with leadership issues, ambitions based on personal charisma, a fondness for seizing the initiative when choosing to act, and a reputation for showing enthusiasm and even zealotry in their character. Fire signs are the spark of heat and initiative from which all life … and all things that are part of life … begin. When the Moon is in Sagittarius, emotions in general will show these traits.

Sagittarius is also a Mutable Sign. The Mutable Signs are Gemini, Virgo, Sagittarius, and Pisces These personalities all deal directly with the application of ideas and information. These people are known for being flexible, easygoing, adaptable, and willing to “adjust” as their way of working with the world. When the Moon is in Sagittarius, these attitudes and qualities will also be prominent in the events and experiences people meet.
