March 2025 Forecast featuring Venus’ Retrograde The Power of (Dis)Agreement
Reality is shaped by our tacit and explicit agreements. Our social systems, codes and organizational constructs only exist because they’re agreed upon. To a large degree, if we experience it, we’re cooperating with it. There is so much creative power, collectively and individually—interpersonally and socially, in owning our decisions about what we agree to. But, deciding well means understanding how we contribute to the narratives of morality and logic. Narratives don’t exist in a solid state; if someone changes their mind about something—poof, that story is gone or altered. There’s so much power in that. I think this month’s astrology is largely about what we do with that power. Venus is the planet of agreements and consensus. It goes retrograde on March 1 st. March starts off with bang and continues to bang around for its entirety—and ends with a big bang. That’s a lot of banging. Take that as you will. Venus stationing retrograde in Aries does not mean that love turns to hate and that we’ll all end up in a barroom brawl—not necessarily. It does mean that we’re embarking on a process of reevaluating of what we’re drawn to and how we connect. We may be preoccupied with the relationships we’re in, changing aesthetic and sensual tastes, questions surrounding what’s worth our time and energy, and shifts in values. Venus in Aries is already edgy, once retrograde, she cares even less about decorum.
March also introduces 2 eclipses, Mercury’s retrograde, the spring equinox and Neptune’s first ingress into Aries. March is a game-changer, and a continuation of deepening activity across the Aries-Pisces border.
Discussed in this episode:
Living with limits on clarity.
The breakdown of unifying narratives, attempts to control narratives, and trying to restore old ones.
