Name: Sun.

Keyphrase: The gentle.

Formed By The Trigrams: Wind over Wind.

General: Although rapid change may be effected by force, enduring change is best effected by gentle persistence.

Love: Patient, thoughtful, and thorough action is the best way to develop trust in your relationship.

Business: Gentle persuasion is by far the best way to further your business plans.

Personal: gentle persistence is the key to successfully achieving your plans.

Overview: Sun is all about the need to be persistent and gentle in your actions. It does not mean that your plans will be unsuccessful because you are proceeding gently rather than forcefully. Unceasing gentleness, not aggressiveness is the key to progress and success. Persuasion and the birth of trust will be far more enduring than threats and coercion. It is a time to allow your thoughts and ideas to permeate the minds of those you are dealing with at their own speed. Be gently persistent in your approach and you will be successful. Adapt to each situation as required. Don’t mistake gentleness for docility and don’t allow gentleness to become weakness.

As a Pisces born on March 19th

 Astrological symbol: Fishes. This relates to versatility, sensitivity, compassion and unconditional love. This is the symbol for people born between February 19 and March 20 when the Sun is considered to be in Pisces.

 The Pisces Constellation is one of the twelve constellations of the zodiac. It is spread on an area of 889 square degrees. It covers visible latitudes between +90° and -65°. It lies between Aquarius to the West and Aries to the East and the brightest star is called Van Maanen’s.

 The name Pisces is the Latin definition for Fish, the March 2 zodiac sign. The Greeks call it Ihthis while the Spanish say it is Pisci.

 Opposite sign: Virgo. This is important because it reflects upon the warmth and purity of Virgo natives who are thought to be and have everything those born under the Pisces sun sign want.

 Modality: Mobile. This shows the realistic nature of people born on March 19 and that they are a mark of helpfulness and ambition.

 Ruling house: The twelfth house. This house rules over the power of an individual to start over permanently and to gather his/her strength from knowledge and previous experience and also over the renewal and completion of all matters.

 Ruling body: Neptune. This combination suggests superiority and grace. The trident is the symbol of Neptune and its influence. Neptune is also representative for the detachment of these natives’ existences.

 Element: Water. This is the element of the charming ones, those born under the March 19 zodiac sign who are loyal and find it easy to unravel how they feel. The deepness of water reveals the depth of these complex individuals.

 Lucky day: Thursday. This weekday is ruled by Jupiter symbolizing revival and fairness. It reflects upon the philosophical nature of Pisces people and the authoritative flow of this day.

 Lucky numbers: 2, 9, 12, 19, 22.

 Motto: “I believe!”

People born on March 19 are eager and autonomous learners but also very creative people in contrasting fields of activity. Just like a true Pisces, they have great initiative and a visionary path to life. They enjoy their domestic spaces very much and spending time with well behaved and enticing people from whom they can learn something. They dislike impoliteness and avarice more than anything in the world. Those born under this sign like to spend time somewhere in nature, close to water and with their loved one if possible.

 Positive Traits: These natives are wise but also idealistic and tend to balance things smoothly. They are receptive to a lot of things that are happening around them and tend to embrace abstract careers that allow them to be supportive to other people and to exercise their visionary approach to life. They also prove a deeper understanding of the human nature.

 Negative Traits: Pisces needs to learn to be more careful whom they trust and understand that not everyone they meet carries the best intentions. Those born on this day are credulous, lazy and weak willed. They can act pretty childish at times and therefore risk sending away serious and dependable people. They are prone to negative behaviors such as lack of initiative due to recurrent feelings of self depreciation at the slightest sign that things don’t go the way they want them to.

Love and Compatibility: Lovers born on March 19 are enthusiastic and adventurous. They seem to never rest and this is also how their love life is going. They love dating and meeting new and exciting persons but when it comes to settling down they avoid any kind of attachment. They are attracted to people who are as fun and open minded as them. You can conquer the heart of Pisces if you know how to keep their interest alive. However, keep note that even these wonderers can be struck by love and when they do they are very loyal and romantic.

 They believe in love at first sight and don’t need much time to get attached to someone. They are persons of extremes in love and sometimes this attitude will have them prone to disappointment. A passionate lover prone to jealousy fits when madly in love. They offer everything they have to their loved one and ask for the same. They are likely to fall in love at a young age as they are attractive and positive persona. Regarding their family life, they will marry when they are completely ready and they will probably be cool parents if they choose to have a one big family. They are most compatible with those born on 4th, 6th, 8th, 13th, 15th, 17th, 22nd, 24th, 26th, and 31st. March 19 Zodiac people seem to be most attracted to the other water signs: Cancer and Scorpio as they tend to share the same vision of life. In love, Pisces is in a permanent search for someone who can support and offer a stable environment and the most suitable to offer them this is the native born under Taurus. The lover in Pisces is said to be least compatible with Aquarius. As for the rest of partnerships between the other star signs and Pisces, you know what they say, stars predispose but people dispose.

Lucky Color: Turquoise is the color said to be representative for Pisces people born with March 19.

Turquoise as a hue, is the symbol of youth, fertility and spirituality. This zodiac color should be used for objects that are sitting in places where these natives spend most of their time.

People having turquoise as sign color sometimes have moments of low self esteem that vary with moments of full strength and courage. Turquoise is a color of communication and has long been used in amulets that provide protection and strength.

Other hues for Pisces natives are purple, pink and sea-green.

Representative Birthstone: The lucky Pisces birthstone for those born under the March 19 is represented by the luring Aquamarine.

Aquamarine symbolizes reliability and bravery. This zodiac birthstone is advised to be used in pendants and earrings.

This birthstone is thought to bring harmony and comfort and enhance the wearer’s consciousness, intelligence and courage. Its name is derived from the Latin words aqua and marina and comes in all kind of blue-green shades.

Another gemstone considered beneficial for Pisces natives is Amethyst. It represents refinery and sobriety.

Characteristic Flower: Water Lily is the flower defined for March 19 and in general for Pisces natives.

Water Lily suggests expectation and dreaming. This zodiac flower should be used in decorative items in the places these natives spend time.

Water Lily blossoms and disappears in just five days, this relates to the changeable and sensible nature of these natives. This flower can be found during summer to early fall.

Other plants that suit Pisces natives are Violets and Jonquils.

Symbolic Metal: The metal used in astrology for those with March 19 is Aluminum.

Aluminum symbolizes innovation and creativity. This zodiac metal should be used in bracelets and other accessories.

Aluminum relates to travel, due to its lightness in weight. Although it is soft and lacks strength its malleability is its principal and most used feature. Friedrich Wohler was credited with discovering this element.

Another metal considered beneficial for Pisces natives is Zinc.

Characteristics: March 19 Zodiac belongs to the third decan of PISCES (March 11-March 20). This decan is under the supervision of the planet Pluto. Those born in this period are friendly and enthusiastic just like a true Pisces and focused and controlling just as Pluto makes them be.

 Pisces comes fourth most common zodiac sign on the list of occurrence in the horoscope. An even numbered sign, this is full of negative polarity and attached to a feminine symbolism. This is characteristic for introvert people who are meditative and confident only in own capabilities. The archetype used to describe this sign is the Guide. These are also the natives of the zodiac who earn least. Famous people born on March 19 under the Pisces zodiac sign: David Livingstone, Bruce Willis, Glenn Close and Garett Clayton.

Who Was St. Patrick?

Who Was St. Patrick?

St. Patrick, the patron saint of Ireland, is one of Christianity’s most widely known figures. But for all of his prevalence in culture, namely the holiday held on the day of his death that bears his name, his life remains somewhat of a mystery. Many of the stories traditionally associated with St. Patrick, including the famous account of his banishing all the snakes from Ireland, are false, the products of hundreds of years of exaggerated storytelling.

St. Patrick: Taken Prisoner By Irish Raiders

It is known that St. Patrick was born in Britain to wealthy parents near the end of the fourth century. He is believed to have died on March 17, around 460 A.D. Although his father was a Christian deacon, it has been suggested that he probably took on the role because of tax incentives and there is no evidence that Patrick came from a particularly religious family. At the age of 16, Patrick was taken prisoner by a group of Irish raiders who were attacking his family’s estate. They transported him to Ireland where he spent six years in captivity. (There is some dispute over where this captivity took place. Although many believe he was taken to live in Mount Slemish in County Antrim, it is more likely that he was held in County Mayo near Killala.) During this time, he worked as a shepherd, outdoors and away from people. Lonely and afraid, he turned to his religion for solace, becoming a devout Christian. (It is also believed that Patrick first began to dream of converting the Irish people to Christianity during his captivity.)

St. Patrick: Guided By Visions

After more than six years as a prisoner, Patrick escaped. According to his writing, a voice—which he believed to be God’s—spoke to him in a dream, telling him it was time to leave Ireland.

To do so, Patrick walked nearly 200 miles from County Mayo, where it is believed he was held, to the Irish coast. After escaping to Britain, Patrick reported that he experienced a second revelation—an angel in a dream tells him to return to Ireland as a missionary. Soon after, Patrick began religious training, a course of study that lasted more than 15 years. After his ordination as a priest, he was sent to Ireland with a dual mission: to minister to Christians already living in Ireland and to begin to convert the Irish. (Interestingly, this mission contradicts the widely held notion that Patrick introduced Christianity to Ireland.)

St. Patrick: Bonfires and Crosses

Familiar with the Irish language and culture, Patrick chose to incorporate traditional ritual into his lessons of Christianity instead of attempting to eradicate native Irish beliefs. For instance, he used bonfires to celebrate Easter since the Irish were used to honoring their gods with fire. He also superimposed a sun, a powerful Irish symbol, onto the Christian cross to create what is now called a Celtic cross, so that veneration of the symbol would seem more natural to the Irish. Although there were a small number of Christians on the island when Patrick arrived, most Irish practiced a nature-based pagan religion. The Irish culture centered around a rich tradition of oral legend and myth. When this is considered, it is no surprise that the story of Patrick’s life became exaggerated over the centuries—spinning exciting tales to remember history has always been a part of the Irish way of life.

History of St. Patrick’s Day

History of St. Patrick’s Day

St. Patrick’s Day is celebrated annually on March 17, the anniversary of his death in the fifth century. The Irish have observed this day as a religious holiday for over 1,000 years. On St. Patrick’s Day, which falls during the Christian season of Lent, Irish families would traditionally attend church in the morning and celebrate in the afternoon. Lenten prohibitions against the consumption of meat were waived and people would dance, drink and feast–on the traditional meal of Irish bacon and cabbage.

Saint Patrick, who lived during the fifth century, is the patron saint and national apostle of Ireland. Born in Roman Britain, he was kidnapped and brought to Ireland as a slave at the age of 16. He later escaped, but returned to Ireland and was credited with bringing Christianity to its people. In the centuries following Patrick’s death (believed to have been on March 17, 461), the mythology surrounding his life became ever more ingrained in the Irish culture: Perhaps the most well known legend is that he explained the Holy Trinity (Father, Son and Holy Spirit) using the three leaves of a native Irish clover, the shamrock.

Since around the ninth or 10th century, people in Ireland have been observing the Roman Catholic feast day of St. Patrick on March 17. Interestingly, however, the first parade held to honor St. Patrick’s Day took place not in Ireland but in the United States. On March 17, 1762, Irish soldiers serving in the English military marched through New York City. Along with their music, the parade helped the soldiers reconnect with their Irish roots, as well as with fellow Irishmen serving in the English army.

GROWTH OF ST. PATRICK’S DAY CELEBRATIONS

Over the next 35 years, Irish patriotism among American immigrants flourished, prompting the rise of so-called “Irish Aid” societies like the Friendly Sons of Saint Patrick and the Hibernian Society. Each group would hold annual parades featuring bagpipes (which actually first became popular in the Scottish and British armies) and drums.

In 1848, several New York Irish Aid societies decided to unite their parades to form one official New York City St. Patrick’s Day Parade. Today, that parade is the world ‘s oldest civilian parade and the largest in the United States, with over 150,000 participants. Each year, nearly 3 million people line the 1.5-mile parade route to watch the procession, which takes more than five hours. Boston, Chicago, Philadelphia and Savannah also celebrate the day with parades involving between 10,000 and 20,000 participants each.

THE IRISH IN AMERICA

Up until the mid-19th century, most Irish immigrants in America were members of the Protestant middle class. When the Great Potato Famine hit Ireland in 1845, close to 1 million poor and uneducated Irish Catholics began pouring into America to escape starvation. Despised for their alien religious beliefs and unfamiliar accents by the American Protestant majority, the immigrants had trouble finding even menial jobs. When Irish Americans in the country’s cities took to the streets on St. Patrick’s Day to celebrate their heritage, newspapers portrayed them in cartoons as drunk, violent monkeys.

The American Irish soon began to realize, however, that their large and growing numbers endowed them with a political power that had yet to be exploited. They started to organize, and their voting block, known as the “green machine,” became an important swing vote for political hopefuls. Suddenly, annual St. Patrick’s Day parades became a show of strength for Irish Americans, as well as a must-attend event for a slew of political candidates. In 1948, President Harry S. Truman attended New York City ‘s St. Patrick’s Day parade, a proud moment for the many Irish Americans whose ancestors had to fight stereotypes and racial prejudice to find acceptance in the New World.

THE CHICAGO RIVER Dyed Green ON ST. PATRICK’S DAY

As Irish immigrants spread out over the United States, other cities developed their own traditions. One of these is Chicago’s annual dyeing of the Chicago River green. The practice started in 1962, when city pollution-control workers used dyes to trace illegal sewage discharges and realized that the green dye might provide a unique way to celebrate the holiday. That year, they released 100 pounds of green vegetable dye into the river–enough to keep it green for a week! Today, in order to minimize environmental damage, only 40 pounds of dye are used, and the river turns green for only several hours.

Although Chicago historians claim their city’s idea for a river of green was original, some natives of Savannah, Georgia (whose St. Patrick’s Day parade, the oldest in the nation, dates back to 1813) believe the idea originated in their town. They point out that, in 1961, a hotel restaurant manager named Tom Woolley convinced city officials to dye Savannah’s river green. The experiment didn’t exactly work as planned, and the water only took on a slight greenish hue. Savannah never attempted to dye its river again, but Woolley maintains (though others refute the claim) that he personally suggested the idea to Chicago’s Mayor Richard J. Daley.

ST. PATRICK’S Day Celebrations AROUND THE WORLD

Today, people of all backgrounds celebrate St. Patrick’s Day, especially throughout the United States, Canada and Australia. Although North America is home to the largest productions, St. Patrick’s Day is celebrated in many other locations far from Ireland, including Japan, Singapore and Russia.

In modern-day Ireland, St. Patrick’s Day was traditionally been a religious occasion. In fact, up until the 1970s, Irish laws mandated that pubs be closed on March 17. Beginning in 1995, however, the Irish government began a national campaign to use interest in St. Patrick’s Day to drive tourism and showcase Ireland and Irish culture to the rest of the world. Today, approximately 1 million people annually take part in Ireland ‘s St. Patrick’s Festival in Dublin, a multi-day celebration featuring parades, concerts, outdoor theater productions and fireworks shows.

March 18, 2026 Current Southern Hemisphere/Tomorrow’s Northern Hemisphere Moon Phase

You can find more moon phase details on both of the websites used in this post by clicking on each hyperlink.

Source: nineplanets.org

The Moon phase for March 18th, 2026 is a Waning Crescent phase. This is the phase where the moon is less than 50% illuminated but has not yet reached 0% illumination (which would be a New Moon).

In this part of the moon cycle, it is getting closer and closer to the Sun as viewed from Earth and the night side of the Moon is facing earth with a decreasingly thin crescent being illuminated.

The waning (shrinking) crescement Moon will rise at around midnight, transit the meridian after sunrise, before setting after noon. This phase is best viewed 1-2 hours before sunrise and is a great time to see the features of the Moon’s surface. Along the illuminated crescent you can see the craters and mountains of the moon casting long shadows.

The Waxing Gibbous phase, like all moon phases, will last for just over 7 days. The actual length will vary because of the elliptical shaped orbit of the moon. During this Waxing Gibbous phase the moon will rise in the east in the mid- to late-afternoon and will be high in the eastern sky at sunset.

Assuming it’s a clear night, the Waxing Gibbous moon will then be visible through most of the night before setting just before sunrise.

Five of Wands

Obstacles; opposition.

Five robed magicians (some men, some women) are battling each other with their wands. Flashes of magickal energy come from the wands, as the magicians either defend themselves or attack others. These magicians represent two types of people in the world: those who are overly ambitious and jealous of what others accomplish, and those who must learn to defend themselves against such attacks by others. Jealous people often attack those who have worked hard and gained positive things from their efforts; unfortunately it is a common human failing. Life is difficult enough (symbolized by the rocky landscape and twisted tree roots), without complicating it with unnecessary battles brought on by misunderstandings, jealousy, and twisted ethics. Only a cool head, spiritual guidance, and resistance to foes will help balanced person win the day. Tiny Air dragons dart above them, their fiery breath intermingling with flashes of energy. They represent the astral guardians who try to bring peace to such a situation.

Divinatory Meaning: Obstacles and opposition from others may complicate your life; you will have to struggle to overcome this.. Harmful gossip could damage your reputation and/or ccareer. You may find yourself in trouble with the law.

Antelope medicine is one of right action. If you were to visit Northern Plains today, you would see groups of antelope scattered about the fields and hills. However they are so quiet and unmoving that (from a distance) they resemble stones. But, get too close and they move like lightening. Antelope asks you: are you being still when you should be moving, or moving when stillness is required?
