Two Eclipses, The Equinox & A Supermoon !
If by any chance, you are not yet sensing the increasing astro-gravity intensity bathing the planet just now, then hold onto your hats, you will be soon ! This month will be a real doozy , blowing with the winds of change ! March 2016 is embellished by 2 mega eclipses, an incredible super moon and of course the equinox.
March 8, 2016 - March 9, 2016 - Total Solar Eclipse
The Total Solar Eclipse will be visible from parts of Indonesia including Sumatra, Borneo, and Sulawesi, and from locations in the Pacific Ocean. However, whether visible or not from your location on the planet, the effects of this eclipse will be felt across the entire earth. The eclipse will begin at 23:19 UTC on March 8, 2016, and its maximum point will take place at 01:58 UTC on March 9, 2016. Totality of this mega total solar eclipse will last for 4 minutes and 9 seconds. The 'energy window of the eclipse will begin 3 days prior to the event, and extend 3 days afterward.
We note the time of the 'Total Eclipse (Below) , to advise you, because the 4 min 9 second span of totality is an extraordinary time for manifestation of focal intent, as in this pause of linear time & dimensional aperture, life force units stream into the earth, and meditations are embellished in the 'Sun-Gate' Portal of the Total Eclipse.
Global Timings - Solar Eclipse
Mega March
The month of March will be one of the most powerful astrological intensities of the year 2016. It will be a phase beginning March 5th , stepping up on the total solar eclipse of March 8th & 9th , peaking on the equinox , and ending in a potent burst 3 days later on the lunar eclipse. It will affect all of you, whether or not you are aware of the astrological forces, whether or not you believe in astrology, you will be effected in this amalgamated surge of incredible gravitational energies.
This will be a time seeding incredible change, seeds will be planted to provoke a close review of life purpose. There may be for the empathic seeker, an intense period within this phase of questioning your lives, of incertitude, and this may for many involve periods of sudden spurts of deep self-doubt, of questioning where you are, what has been gained, what has been lost and what has not been yet achieved; in both the micro & macro scales, individually and group mass arenas. An alliance of Uranus, Saturn & Pluto occurring between March 3rd and March 23rd will bring energies that can affect self-doubt and depression, and these gravities are actually heightened in the amplification of the equinox sandwiched between the tandem mega eclipses and full moon.
But we urge you to realize that this eclipsical time of review is oft laden with phases of diffident vacillation from tenets of positive belief, spiked with jolts of skepticism. Yet these in themselves can absolutely become the springboard for inspiring new actions that are required. It is important to temper the catalytic spice of these potent energies with the seasoning of understanding the influences about you, lest you allow the doubts to lead you into a downward spiral of cynicism, depression and the sticky 'molasses' of apathy. In some aspects, the cocktail of energies of March will feel for a period leading up to the equinox, a bit like a 'shorter-lived' Mercury retrograde, with phases of unjustified, atypical temper outburst, curious unwarranted angers, skewed reasoning, miscommunication, melancholy and procrastination.
During Solar Eclipses the Moon is directly between the Earth and Sun, a conjunction of the Sun and the Moon. During this brief time the Moon can "block out" the Sun, not only temporarily turning off the lights, if you will, but actually pausing for an infinite moment, the passage of linear time in the dimensional fabric of space. In this paused window, a gate opens to the infinitely of timeless non-space. This window allows for the opportunity to recognize your mortality, the finite aspect of your personality in time as a human being on the earthplane. And you will perhaps be stimulated, eclipsically bolted from the mesmerizing dross by this intensity to concentrate on what you wish to accomplish with the remaining time & creative opportunities in front of you.
Remember as we have shared previously with you, in duality dimensions, space is coagulated time, and above duality, time is fixed into the infinite now of non-time, and space freely flows with the lucidity of thought. Accordingly, in this eclipsical aperture, you may rise so high into the great & greater infinity of multidimensional self-awareness & divine aspect, that when you view below into the linear dimension of duality, you will see in a prolific moment of serendipitous clarity, that there is a reason for everything. That physical life is a purposed illusion of learning creatorship, and you will be recharged with the knowledge that you are powerful spiritual beings temporarily wearing the clothing of biology.
The solar eclipse in Pisces occurs in the energy of the Super 'New Moon' of March 8th and the eclipse will achieve 'Total Eclipse' at 1:58 a.m. UT on 9th March, and at 8:58 pm on March 8th on the eastern coast of America. This has far reaching effects, and will provide the energy burst of flooding the planet with 'life force' energy units in peak during the 4+ minutes of totality. Among the primary themes of the energy initiated on the solar eclipse is Emotional Wisdom. Gaining mastery of self in order to forge a greater Truth ! In this eclipsical energy you will be giving the opportunity of removing illusion, the removal of smoke & mirrors, the requisite of finding truth whether hidden by others or self. And let us be clear, finding truth is essential, and the ability to do so involves both the elimination of obstacles and the embracing of opportunity.
You must realize that the constant raising of the frequencial bar, the amplification and increasing intensity of astronomical / astrological gravities is part of the path, year by years, phase by phase, in the New Earth thru 2038. The Jupiter Opposition initiating on the day of the solar eclipse, March 8th, will percolate every emotion. You must stabilize the emotional field, because otherwise the aura will fracture in the emotional extremes of the unmanaged reaction. Otherwise each phase of concentrated energy shift, taking place each year with eclipses, meteor showers, super moons, retrogrades, solstices, equinoxes and eclipses will toss you around like loose cannons on a wild sea of energy waves.
The present surge that we have termed as 'Madness of March' will provide an influx of energy extremes that can easily hurl the un-managed mind, the un-tempered emotions of the unprepared into a battery of erratic feelings. You must control the fear, abate the depression and apathy thru mental discipline. You cannot float on a ship with no sails and wait for the tide to calm, you must be the master of emotion in order to achieve mental clarity...and that is being cosmically taught in March. March will contain the unexpected, forgotten unresolved issues & people from the past may suddenly surface. And in this tumultuous energy, be wary. Mars is in the background and Jupiter is in retrograde. Communication is skewed., emotions can run erratic and logic may be skewed until April. isolate in this time, in order to contemplate the self.
Take time to detach, for the next few weeks, and observe from a 3rd party stance, the flow of emotions that can occur in all seasons, all colors of the next 3 weeks. You must explore your emotions without giving them the reigns of your actions, you are compelled to know your feelings: how they emanate, why they spring forth, their vibratory patterns and behavioral triggers. And, most important of all, how you create, perpetuate and manage them.
For much of the first fortnight of March, Saturn squares the Sun. Disheartening & frustrating in one aspect, but empowering growth and creating opportunities of new strength of will in another. This energy calls for the need to reconsider ones spiritual intents and goals to fit within the parameters of your 3d activity. This means confrontation of hypercriticism, of understanding an opposing point of view, and not stepping on the feet of those that disagree with you. It means that lofting into higher realms doesn't serve you if you lose your footing in duality. Grounding is essential. Being airy-fairy is not the same as being positive.
This Saturn square demands the flexibility to be steadfast and strong, having the courageous determination to confront any unexpected circumstances, and the entire energy of March is teeming with potentials for the unforeseen to arise, and this is energized by Mars's passage into Sagittarius in the first week of March....as well as the ongoing retrograde of Jupiter, and Saturn goes into retrograde on March 25th.
The 2nd week of March is influenced from the 14th to 16th by the maximum frequency of the Saturn T-Square with Mercury & Jupiter. This shifts slightly to include Pluto on the 17th & 18th leading into the equinox on the 20th and 21st. But keep in mind astrological influences are amalgamated when occurring between eclipses and further exaggerated by the frequencial 'amping-up' that is brought by the equinox.
The lunar eclipse in Libra occurs at 11:48 a.m. UT on the 23rd March, opposed by Mercury in Aries. This Lunar eclipse is in effect, the completion of what began with the solar eclipse a fortnight earlier. The full moon of the penumbral eclipse is the perfect timing to reconsider compassion in dealings with self and others. The entire planet is being forced to find the means of unification within the undertow of upheaval and sudden shift.
This frequency in March takes effort to optimally manage , and as uncertain as the environmental vibratory rate may be with the roller-coasters of jagged frequencial spikes & uncertainties inducing anxiety & worry, it also contains extraordinary potentials. You each have the ability to calm the mind, and in so doing are able to reach very high during the eclipses and equinox. These are indeed, extremely potent apertures, windows of wisdom...and within them the wise seeker is able to reach the stars, and find serenity in divinity ... and in so doing co-create the changes you want to see.
You can transform the madness into majesty !

March 8 - Jupiter at Opposition. The giant planet will be at its closest approach to Earth and its face will be fully illuminated by the Sun. It will be brighter than any other time of the year and will be visible all night long. This is the best time to view and photograph Jupiter and its moons. A medium-sized telescope should be able to show you some of the details in Jupiter's cloud bands. A good pair of binoculars should allow you to see Jupiter's four largest moons, appearing as bright dots on either side of the planet.
March 9 - New Moon. The Moon will located on the same side of the Earth as the Sun and will not be visible in the night sky. This phase occurs at 01:54 UTC. This is the best time of the month to observe faint objects such as galaxies and star clusters because there is no moonlight to interfere.
March 9 - Total Solar Eclipse. A total solar eclipse occurs when the moon completely blocks the Sun, revealing the Sun's beautiful outer atmosphere known as the corona. The path of totality will only be visible in parts of central Indonesia and the Pacific Ocean. A partial eclipse will be visible in most parts of northern Australia and southeast Asia.

March 20 - March Equinox
March Equinox: The March equinox occurs at 04:30 UTC. The Sun will shine directly on the equator and there will be nearly equal amounts of day and night throughout the world. This is also the first day of spring (vernal equinox) in the Northern Hemisphere and the first day of fall (autumnal equinox) in the Southern Hemisphere.
March 23 - Full Moon. The Moon will be located on the opposite side of the Earth as the Sun and its face will be will be fully illuminated. This phase occurs at 12:02 UTC. This full moon was known by early Native American tribes as the Full Worm Moon because this was the time of year when the ground would begin to soften and the earthworms would reappear. This moon has also been known as the Full Crow Moon, the Full Crust Moon, the Full Sap Moon, and the Lenten Moon.
March 23 - Penumbral Lunar Eclipse. A penumbral lunar eclipse occurs when the Moon passes through the Earth's partial shadow, or penumbra. During this type of eclipse the Moon will darken slightly but not completely. The eclipse will be visible throughout most of extreme eastern Asia, eastern Australia, the Pacific Ocean, and the west coast of North America including Alaska. (NASA Map and Eclipse Information)
