A trip or journey could carry far more meaning than just a change of scenery. It might be a relaxing getaway, a business trip or even a spontaneous day out, but this adventure holds the potential to encourage a breakthrough. Conversations, sights or experiences may offer insights about yourself or your next steps. Stay open to coincidence, as good things come from doing so.

Want to know the secret to success? Tackle the toughest tasks first. Procrastination may be tempting, but facing challenges head-on will clear the way for everything else to flow more smoothly. It’s like climbing the steepest hill first, as once you’re over it, the rest is a breeze. Prioritising the hard stuff means you’ll accomplish far more than expected, with less stress.

It may be time to leave the past behind and relinquish what no longer works for you. Today’s lunation in a private zone may be a call to acknowledge that something needs to go. It’s time to grow into a new role or situation. Try to simplify your schedule and make the most of any downtime to rejuvenate. A warming herbal tea and a home-cooked meal can boost your mood.

With Mercury rewinding at the weekend and Venus retrograde, partnership or team decisions require patience. What feels certain today could shift tomorrow, so take things step by step and avoid making firm promises just yet. The Lunar Eclipse inspires a change in perspective. What’s blocking your path? Whether it’s a mindset, habit or situation, this shift starts to happen.

Your ruler Venus goes Retrograde on the 2nd, but still forges dazzling links with lucky Jupiter and speedy Mercury in the early part of March. But discussions can be fluid, especially if life has been burdensome and you’ve felt you’ve been carrying too much of the load. You need to feel heard, and if you can exercise your gift for diplomacy, your message will get through. In fact, relationships of all kinds come sharply into focus, but particularly around the Spring Equinox, when Venus and the Sun newly in Aries, angle to transformer Pluto.
