Because the Sun will always spend the first three weeks of March in your relationship sector, the solar spotlight is always on your relationships at this time each year, though with a sense that something has shifted. For the first time since 2011, the Sun returned to find that Neptune, the planet of hopes and dreams wasn't here and for the first time since 2023, that Saturn wasn't here either. Neptune's departure at the end of January and Saturn's last month means that when Mars, who will return on 3rd March leaves next month, this will end 16 years of near continuous planetary activity on the relationship front. Venus and Mercury, the planets of love and communication returned before Saturn left last month, creating continuity as you transition from years of continuous planetary activity on the relationship front to a new era, where that will only be the case for a few months each year. Venus will leave on 6th March, but not before giving your heart a voice and the Sun will keep the solar spotlight on your relationships until leaving on 21st March. Mercury, who returned last month for what should have been a 14 to 15 day chance to work with the planet of communication to get the communication lines open, instead saw him turn retrograde late last month. This will keep Mercury here all month and until turning direct on 21st March, his focus is on giving the past and unsaid words a voice. Mars, the last of the faster planets to return this year and the last to leave, will return on 3rd March to spend six weeks injecting his passion and proactive approach into the mix. The Moon's return from 17th March to 19th March as a New Moon will be a chance to ensure you are emotionally engaged and aware during the Sun's final days and during Mercury's final days in retrograde motion. In the meantime, some of the most romantically charged days of the month will be when the Moon moves through your romantic sector from 12th March to 14th March.
