Hello you beautiful people and welcome to Aligned Advantage for March!
I’m so excited to go on this deep dive of each month’s calendar together using the power of the woo-woo tools my momma taught me. 😉
Hooray!
It’s time to tackle the March calendar so here we go!
NOTE: Our Zoom on March 23rd will be about April’s magic. Scroll down to get registered to be a part of that *next* session! ’til then, it’s all about March.
As always, we’ll cover what the numerology of the days mean, what the moon phases tell us, and of course how all this plays out in your favor in the most intriguing and powerful ways! During the Zoom, you’ll get a chance to hop in the hot seat — be sure to bring your chart (render it at a site like Astro.com) so I can work my magic with you — and we’ll talk about how the woo of the month aligns with YOU!
Please feel free to ask questions in the comments area below and while some will be best-suited for our live Zoom, certainly I’ll do what I can to help explain some of how I make the calendar work for me in the comments before and after our Zooms.
If you need support materials for interpreting the various notations on this calendar, head back over to your Aligned Advantage Welcome page, where I have stored all sorts of goodies for you!
And now… the replay of our live Zoom session about the March calendar and all its juicy goodness! Enjoy!
Here are some resources we used during this session: Planet Watcher, Annual Profections diagram, Traditional Rulership graphic, and of course your quick-reference guide to all the basics remains at my free astro series “What Your Birthday Says About You“.
Also, my ever-growing playlist of woo goodies is here at YouTube. Check there for the sun-in-the-houses overview we did back in December and of course the explanation of how to change your chart from Placidus to the Whole Sign house system for these ancient timing techniques we’ve been exploring thus far in 2021.
We’ll shift gears to something simpler next month and I cannot wait for that lightness! Meanwhile, keep having FUN with this! 🙂
As always, if you are hankerin’ for a “You in the Stars” report or if you’d like to book a one-on-one with me for more woo, all the info on these offerings is here. Woo HOO!
Questions? Keep ’em comin’! I love these discussions SO MUCH and really enjoy sharing all this learning with you.
Y’all, thank you for joining me in this exciting woo-woo venture! I’m so proud to be the astrologer’s daughter and I know Charlsie is so happy to see this happening right now. 🙂

So sad I missed this. With February being already short and losing a week because TEXAS, I completely lost track of the days. Anyway, glad to be able to stop and start on this because WOW. A lot. One thing I realized that I want to comment about is that my current timelord since my birthday of 2020 has been the Moon (which is in Gemini in my chart) and BOY does it make SO much sense. Busy doesn’t even begin to describe this profection year. And I’ll be heading into my 4th house ruled by the Sun (which is also in Gemini in my chart) on my birthday (May 23rd, 2021) so things may slow down a bit, but not by much since Sun still changes often though not as often as the Moon. So, I’m excited to see what the double Sun from May 23rd-June 22nd, 2021 will translate to. Hopefully a big ol’ spotlight because you know how much Geminis love the spotlight and I have Gemini in Sun, Moon and Mercury so I really don’t feel accomplished or whole unless the spotlight is on me. lol It so strange because I have also been feeling very antsy all year like I’m waiting for something BIG to happen. Even though some pretty major things have already happened, the anticipation just strengthens. Is it because my timelord is The Moon, which is maybe boosting that frenetic energy? I’m trying hard to enjoy the NOW and reminding myself of the past me who dreamed of being the current me, but there’s this constant tug of anticipation. Even my husband, who is very (sometimes annoyingly) in tune with me, feels it. Lately it’s been getting worse and making it hard to sleep. Anyway, so happy to be filling out my honeycomb planner with your insights and journaling my day to day to help track patterns!
CORRECT on all of this. The energy of the moon is seriously all over the place, but thankfully predictably and in the same order at the same pace, so once we get used to it, it’s all okay. But it’s definitely 12 different vibes per month, right?
And yes, with that sun + moon + Mercury vibe happening here, coming up, you are gonna not get much of a let-up from the gas pedal!! Speedy planets/placements. Speedy signs. Yup, yup, yup! Stay buckled up!
As for the hard-to-sleep stuff a lot of that is also just Aquarius (Saturn and Jupiter both being there — we’ll soon get a break from that as Jupiter slides into Pisces for a bit) AND Uranus in Taurus. Those are both Earth signs, so there’s a square happening between them and Mars, especially right now, is exacerbating things. Look for some relief as soon as tomorrow, when Mars stops being “helpful” with all of this (by leaving the Earth sign Taurus, thank goodness).
Not saying this is gonna suddenly restore some massively helpful levels of sleep… but it may get a wee bit easier to get to — and stay — asleep for longer stretches more times than now.
SO glad you’re safe, Texas-dweller. Phew! That was a lot. (BTW, total Uranus disruption, according to the astrologers talking about it all.)
Fine, then I’ll say it. It will restore some massively helpful levels of sleep. March 2nd I had the first good night’s sleep in well over a month. Last night was almost as good, missing by a few percentage points.
BEAUTIFUL! I slept like a log in Ojai and just assumed it was the space — so much silence and peace. Good to know Mars getting the fuck out of Taurus really did ease us out of some of that crazy malefic-square energy.
Hi all. Even though this happened in February during Merc retro, I thought I’d process the results here on the March page. I finally got to the “Genius Bar” with my hobbled, stuck-in-an-attempt-to-update-to-Big Sur loop. The verdict? My precious Fiona the Apple (I named her Fiona for multiple layers of meaning for me, so she’s dear to me) is bricked and, according to the “genius”, unable to be salvaged unless I wipe the hard drive and reinstall the previous software version (Catalina). Every single thing I’ve ever written or done, taken a picture of, my show bible, my notes on industry I’ve been in front of, anything I’ve somehow saved of my entire life since I first owned a computer is on that laptop, and it is now all…gone. Everything. It happened last week and I am still in shock I think. At this point, I don’t even KNOW what I don’t know now, you know? Like I can’t even get too upset about what is lost because there’s oceans of it and my mind just glazes over when I try to think about what I no longer have.
Here’s the interesting thing that’s happening though. The first thought I had, after having been in that Apple store for almost 3 hours was: “Welp. If this isn’t the HUGEST lesson in *letting go* for the girl whose theme song in life has thus far been, ‘Everything I’ve ever let go of has claw marks on it.'” I had a sense of almost an unreal lightness. Like, a strong feeling of “this was supposed to turn out this way because you need this lesson.” Reinvention. Starting over. Being someone that is not so tied to the past, and with that, allowing past early messaging to RUN ME and my sense of who I am. Understanding what matters in life and what really doesn’t. It’s almost like I literally felt a cord cutting. This may not seem super Aligned Advantage related to some, but I think it SO is. The more I’ve been studying and leaning into the themes that pass through my life, and the cycles of planets and signs that pass through my chart, Losing all that was attached to me through that laptop feels weirdly….*right*. Aligned. I sound like a crazy person maybe right now but I had to share this here. I know as I remember all I don’t easily have access to anymore with the click of a mouse that I will gasp and cry and mourn, as one thing or another floats to the surface of my memory. But overall, this feels meant to be. That’s how I’m seeing it. And HUGE lesson learned.
I feel somewhat foggy overall the past few days after this, but that might also just be the first Pfizer shot I was finally able to get on Tuesday. All this is a shock, but also brings into sharp focus, what really matters? I mean, really, what? I’m alive, I’m relatively healthy, I was able to get my first Covid shot and they scheduled my second for the 23rd, and that will be a huge relief. So, I feel astoundingly grateful. Thanks for listening Bonnie, and fellow Aligned babes. I appreciate you all. <3
Kellye, so glad you reacted so positively at first. As someone who has lost literally everything, it really does put things in perspective. It doesn’t make what happened suck any less but the lightness is fucking REAL. Based on my experience I wouldn’t be surprised if the fogginess is also from this massive change. Even though the stuff on your computer was the backup to your brain, there’s still that connection and your brain is trying to connect to those files and can’t find them. Lean into the lightness you’re feeling. You got this.
This!!!
Proud of you, Kellye. This is a lot and you’re making your way through it, foggy-head and all. {{{hugs}}}
Not sure it’ll be a fun read, but if you’re curious about my experience in this area, I wrote a piece (with an amazing comments section too) called iCloud Stole My Data: A Lesson in Starting Over back in December of 2015. Painful for me to even re-read today, except for the fact that I know the punchline.
Losing everything is absolute freedom.
You get to reinvent yourself in any way that you want.
And because you’re a creative machine, you keep creating — better than before — because ONLY the stuff that really sticks with you makes it to the script you try to recreate. ONLY the moments that matter are ones you can see in friends’ flashbacks/highlights on social media, then save for yourself. ONLY the things that really matter make it back into the starting-over-version of yourself.
Yesterday Keith was out at the home of friends whose house burned to the ground in the Malibu fires back in November of 2018. They’re still not back in their home because they’ve not been able to rebuild yet. They’re still staying in temporary spaces, moving every few months. And even though I didn’t go on this visit, I did go on one in April of 2019 and I was really struck by HOW LITTLE STUFF they had. Like, no tchotchkes. No books. No plants. No photo albums. No “extra” anything in any room. Just the very very very basic stuff.
I remember sitting there at the temporary home they were in back then, just looking around at the sparseness, and realizing I appreciated the ocean — the view of it, the smell of it, the moisture of it, the sound of it — in a way I never noticed appreciating it all the times we visited at their original (now burned down) house since 2001.
I know it’s all a LOT right now — but also it’s full-on surrender, which the brain struggles with but eventually does.
I LOVE the alignment you are seeing in all of this. And yes, allow yourself the grieving process.
But like Dr. Dre said when he was told he’d be losing his masters when he left the Death Row label: “Can’t put a price on peace of mind.” I love that scene. Because it’s such a truth of what we’ll ALWAYS do, no matter how much we have to leave behind. We will ALWAYS make more. It’s what we do.
{{{hugs}}}
Agree. The stuff that sticks with you is the important stuff. And here’s this month’s 1 line nugget that I’ve said repeatedly, “It’s easy to move when you don’t own anything!” (Not as great as the cocaine one but it’ll have to do.)
I actually liked Mars in Taurus. I know it’s usually not a lucky combination, but for me, it was extra money coming in that I didn’t expect, extra money in the bank, good food, bubble baths, and not giving a shit about my work. Ha-ha. After Mars in Aries retrograde, I was burned out from working so hard and having all kinds of financial/housing/health problems. I literally got sick from the exhaustion. At the beginning of Mars in Taurus, I was sleeping for two weeks in January and it was fabulous. I needed to slow down and have a break and everything got better. I’m curious about what Mars in Gemini will be like. It looks like I am more influenced by Mars than any other planet. Actually, I also see the influence of the Moon. So, it’s Mars and the Moon.
Awesome realizations!! Those are two biggies in my life as well, Ivett. It’s an interesting combo. Moon changing every 2.5 days; Mars taking just under 2 months to do each sign. Isn’t there so much power in noticing which planets seem to be having the most impact in our lives? It allows for some really good focusing of attention on transits and shifts into new signs… and tuning out a lot of the bajilliondy OTHER things happening constantly in astrology, so we don’t have to be overwhelmed.
I’d imagine Mars in Gemini will feel chatty and a little scattered and restless. Tough to sleep but quick with ideas and bold assertion around things we’re excited about. Let’s find out!!
Woo hoo, lots of good stuff! Hopefully will get to join live next time since I am late to the game. Can you direct me on how to print out my whole signs chart? I only have the Placidus one an d could not figure out on Astro.com
Sure thing! I have a walk-thru in the woo playlist at my YouTube channel. Here’s the vid: https://youtu.be/yVCZ69oyO6w
Excited to have you on our next Zoom! 🙂 And no worries if you can’t make it. We’ll always have the replay up in the new month’s course page later that day.
Because you all would understand this connection: My sun moved into the 4th House yesterday (based on the House Focus Timing live workshop from a few months back) so my focus is “family of origin, home & ancestry”. Today, on a phone call with my Mom, making tentative plans for some in-person Easter plans, I discovered that my sister had the option of getting the vaccine (she’s a teacher) and declined.
Oh My God did I freak out!!!! “How could she turn it down? How could she possibly not take advantage of this?”
Which was actually more – “How are we even from the same family? How could we be so similar in the way we were raised and SOOOOOOOOOO different in how we’ve evolved as adults? Why doesn’t she think/feel like me?!?!”
I remember years ago there was a moment when I discovered she was anti-abortion and the same feelings came around (I wonder if that was during a 4th House energy, too?!?!).
I’m tapping with Dana Middleton in her bootcamp right now and my affirmation is “I am allowed to share my voice & perspective.” and all I can think right now is there’s no way I can share MY voice with her without alienating her & the whole family & ruining Easter.
Luckily, I have some time to breathe & tap & breathe & tap before the actual event on April 3rd.
One of my long-term friends from my childhood is also against the vaccine. She said that neither she nor her mom is getting it. Her mom is over 70 years old! I was so angry. Sadly, I’m an Aries so I immediately sent her a mean message on Facebook ranting about how she could endanger her elderly mother’s life. Unfortunately, I don’t take a breath and think like you. Lol. So she is not talking to me now. Now that I calmed down a little bit, I had to realize that I won’t be able to convince her to get vaccinated with angry messages, so my reaction definitely didn’t help anything. That was a dumb move on my end.
Instead of labeling it dumb, just as a kindness to yourself, try “That’s so Aries of me.” 😉 Sending you love and hugs.
So this is where I would say you’re getting into HER chart rather than staying in your own. 😉 Did you catch yourself jumping from “I am allowed to share my voice and perspective” (which is a GREAT 3rd house focus, BTW, especially with Aquarius having a community-focused voice and your Saturn being in the 10th which is the top of the chart = being seen) right to “there’s no way I can share MY voice without alienating her and ruining Easter”?
That’s a BIG, high-stakes negative thing you’ve put around your affirmation and goal, right?
And you don’t control how someone else reacts to your voice. Even if you agree with them on a subject, you can’t control their reaction to your speaking up. Ever.
How can you make it feel safe to use your voice? How can you lower the stakes? Yes, tapping, but also knowing 3rd house is where siblings live and 10th is leadership and public eye, what if your voice being heard IS the medicine that heals (Virgo = healer)?
As someone with a very sticky sibling relationship (except, since my style of dealing with things is avoidance, it’s not all that sticky — it just doesn’t exist) I totally get the UGH of it all. And my therapist and I were just talking the other day about how DNA is *not* all that much to have in common with a person.
Sending love. You’ve got this!
I’m falling down the rabbit hole on this astrology stuff and loving it!
2021 is a 5 year (fun, party!) — I’m in a 9 year (endings, letting go)
Annual Profection starts on my birthday (1/30)
On January 30th 2021 I entered a 3rd house profection for the rest of the year
My 3rd house sign is Virgo which is ruled by the planet Mercury
So, my time lord for 2021 is Mercury. I’m in a Virgo season.
Mercury in my chart is in Capricorn — My Capricorn is in the 7th house
I can use 7th house stuff as medicine for 3rd house issues this year (use personal and professional partnerships as medicine for social group, friends, siblings & networking issues). (Not sure I get this exactly but I imagine I’ll figure it out as I run into an issue and have to figure out how to solve it.)
I watched the video again and made a list of my monthly profections:
January 30 – February 27: Mercury-ruled month (Virgo)
theme: communication, travel, & learning in relation to communication, travel, & learning
February 28 – March 29: my 4th house is Libra (Venus is in charge under Mercury overall rule)
theme: love, beauty, money, values in relation to communication, travel, & learning
March 30 – April 29: my 5th house is in Scorpio (Mars is in charge under Mercury overall rule)
theme: starting new things in relation to communication, travel, & learning
April 30 – May 29: my 6th house is in Sagittarius (Jupiter is in charge under Mercury overall rule)
theme: expansion, abundance in relation to communication, travel, & learning
May 30 – June 29: my 7th house is in Capricorn (Saturn is in charge under Mercury overall rule)
theme: life’s purpose in relation to communication, travel, & learning
June 30 – July 29: my 8th house is in Aquarius (Saturn is in charge under Mercury overall rule)
theme: life’s purposed in relation to communication, travel, & learning
July 30 – August 29: my 9th house is in Pisces (Jupiter is in charge under Mercury overall rule)
theme: expansion, abundance in relation to communication, travel, & learning
August 30 – September 29: my 10th house is in Aries (Mars is in charge under Mercury overall rule)
theme: starting new things in relation to communication, travel, & learning
September 30 – October 29: my 11th house is in Taurus (Venus is in charge under Mercury overall rule)
theme: love, money, beauty, values in relation to communication, travel, & learning
October 30 – November 29: my 12th house is in Gemini (Mercury is in charge under Mercury overall rule)
theme: communication, travel, & learning in relation to communication, travel, & learning
November 30 – December 29: my 1st house is in Cancer (Moon is in charge under Mercury overall rule)
theme: feelings, emotions in relation to communication, travel, & learning
December 30 – January 29: my 2nd house is in Leo (Sun is in charge under Mercury overall rule)
theme: ego, being seen in relation to communication, travel, & learning
Then I made a list of some things I’d like to accomplish this year and tried to determine what planets would be the most helpful. This is the part I’m not too sure about and feel like I was guessing a lot because for example Jupiter being expansion and abundance could be good for everything I would think. Anyways, here’s what I came up with (the goal is listed first and the planets in () afterwards is my guess at planets that would be helpful and then I can look at which months this year are in charge to determine good times for these items.
1 schedule/post a zoom/you tube live/fb live interview for publicity for audiobook with RH (rights holder of book I’m currently narrating) once or twice (Mercury, Sun)
2. reach out to CD’s I’ve done workshops with this past year (Mercury, Jupiter, Sun, Venus)
3. target and meet with and get hell yes representation (agent/manager) (Mars, Mercury, Venus, Jupiter, Saturn)
4. fine-tune highly castable on-brand marketing tools (H/S, self-tapes, etc.) (Sun, Jupiter, Venus)
5. purchase a VO booth (Venus, Jupiter)
6. audition for and book some high-income audiobook narrator jobs (Venus, Jupiter, Mercury)
7. audition for and book several co-stars and hopefully one guest star on tv (Sun, Mercury, Saturn, Moon, Venus)
8. book a commercial (Sun, Mercury, Saturn, Jupiter, Venus)
9. get onto the list of narrators for hire for two or three production companies (Mercury, Venus, Jupiter, Saturn)
10. take a family trip somewhere fun (Jupiter, Mercury, Venus)
11. plan a big celebration party (Mars, Jupiter, Venus, Sun, Mercury)
Mercury pretty much seems to fit with everything on the list which is good be cause it’s my Time Lord this year. Attempting to throw my hat in the ring of Predictive Astrology. How’d I do?
Bonnie,
I had a quick question I thought of as I’m watching the Zoom again: for the houses that do not have planets in them, those houses will never be MEDICINE for any of our annual profection related house issues, but they will be ISSUES for us when we reach the age that corresponds to that house for our annual profection? I’m asking this because doesn’t that then tell us something about our personality, how we generally experience those parts of life, areas of our lives that we may spend less time learning our lessons or that may not contribute as heavily to our personal growth?
When a house is “empty” of placements/planets, it still is a WHERE in our lives. Remember the formula “the planet is the WHAT, the sign is the HOW, and the house is the WHERE” it all goes down. So there’s still 2/3 of the formula in “empty” houses. There’s energy there. Just not as specifically a WHAT energy.
So, for example, I have Aries in my 7th house. This makes my HOW of relationships very individualistic. Meaning, I pair up in ways that work for ME. I’m in it for ME. And my passion is quick to feel “over it” once stuff’s not new.
I know that means I need to find ways to bring balance to my 1:1 relationships so I don’t get bored and bail on them over and over and over again… something that I could VERY easily do (and that I did for a long time in my life, both personally and professionally).
How’s that?
Wow! Yes! Thank you!
There are so many aspects (no pun intended) to astrology! I have this vision in my mind of taking each month’s topic and laying them all out on a table as separate concepts and then layering them on top of each other to find out how all the parts interact as a whole — this is what fascinates me about Astrology. It’s like finding all the puzzle pieces and figuring how to put it all together to get the big picture and details about a human being. That is a way-oversimplified analogy to something so complex that I’m not sure it can be turned into an analogy.
I used to think Astrology was having your chart read and you get to learn some stuff about yourself and how fun is that, but now that I’m actually learning about it, it’s much more than a one-time reading… it’s a personal growth journey, a personal navigation system, and even more than that.
Yessssssssss on all of that. It’s like a 3D puzzle. You think it’s gonna look a certain way and then discover it goes in all directions and the flat puzzle changes shape as you go 3D with the thing. I LOVE how many layers there are to this and, like you, I keep looking for how I can use those layers to have a fuller understanding of it all… thing is, it’s INFINITE information and we’re just scratching the surface. In a way, I really love that, because it means there’s no “Oh! I get it now!” and it just being info that’s filed away. It’s EVER-evolving. Like we are!! 🙂
