We say to all that times are a-changin' and that there will be no holding back; that status quo will no longer exist as such but that forces of evolution are pressing forward, and each person must  face and accommodate these in their own individual way.  If you feel moved to change, to let go, to press onwards and move forward in your life, this means that you are on the forefront, that you are not resisting, and that you face adventure with enthusiasm, and risk with faith.  On the other hand, if you are fearful to let go, to let your life morph and break open, then that fear is the manifestation of your inner resistance to becoming a more true you, and a being closer to the god-force than you now experience.

It is natural to fear the unknown, and we are not advising blindly rushing in where fools would tread.  We are saying, take stock inside yourself to see what it is that you hold onto the most, and where a force of change would most threaten your sense of peace.  That sense of peace is your treasure; it does not exist in the things you have, or the job you hold, or the role you play.  That sense of peace comes from a clear and certain connection to your higher purpose.  The continual and benign thread of your life.  The ultimate choice which you have already made, to play your game and participate in your drama.

If you have the peace that comes from knowing this, which arrives from the belief of who you are and what your destiny is, then the fear of change is not as severe and can be overcome, downplayed, or set aside.  The more you know yourself, then, the closer you are to your god-given purpose - your personal soul choice, your human destiny - and the forces now upon the world, of transformation, shift and realignment, will not truly bother you.  You will, as they say, roll with the punches, or better yet, you will accommodate the shifts and turns with ease.  You will deflect threat, and you will embrace opportunity.

Your potential lies before you.  It rests there, plain to see.  Maybe its form is not yet sculpted but its energy pattern is alive and willing, and malleable, forgiving and accepting.  Your energy pattern of your future enthusiastically awaits you!  Don't hold back.

It's easy.  It is not scary.  Scare is a thing in your mind.  Fear is a fist in your gut.  In between lies your heart, and if all is well, your heart is clear and radiant.  That's where to go.  Take your mind to your heart; take your knotted gut to your heart.  Cherish yourself.  Stay in the center of you - heart-centered - and help others to do so, too.  All will be well.

God bless.

For the U.S., March brings a better shot at revising our national dreams (Neptune semi-sextile progressed Pluto).  The early part of the month indicates that reform can be benefited through technology (Uranus sextile progressed Pluto).  A show of power and courage can be evidenced, perhaps through military action (Mars conjunct progressed Sun, trine Jupiter) but by mid month, compromises are sought, especially around budget talks (progressed Moon, ruler of H8 from H3, conjunct Libra Midheaven; Solar Arc Moon in Libra too).  The 25th is a day of sweetness and kindness (Venus conjunct Moon), and late month indicates maturation, as in getting our house in order for future generations (Saturn Rx return in Libra 10th, trine Solar Arc Mars).  Agreements can be revised on the 30th (Mercury station retrograde square Mercury exact) but care must be taken not to overcommit (Jupiter opposite Saturn, square Sun).   

The patterns for Israel have been fortunate for peace (Jupiter trine MC/Moon) and good for business (less threat).  This pleasanter climate should continue during this month, reflective perhaps of the wave of change in favor of democracy that is sweeping its neighbors (progressed MC in Libra sextile Moon, square Venus; Jupiter trine Pluto/Saturn).  It bodes well for new governments in that region, at least for now.  Israel can plan well and be more realistic about its options in negotiations (Saturn will station direct conjunct Neptune, trine Mercury exact).  

President Obama faces March in fighting mode (Mars in his 1st) but is beset by chaos and drastic changes regarding jobs, healthcare, and finances by the 13th (Uranus opposite progressed Sun).  He can bask in popularity on the 18th, however, (Venus conjunct Ascendant), and see success on the 20th, perhaps through travel (Jupiter trine Sun).  The 29th shows financial matters causing conflict (progressed Moon entering H2, opposite Mars).
