Pisces events involving the sun, moon or other planets generate much more sensitivity and compassion in people but also the extremes of feeling that lead to escapism, addiction, seclusion.
Illusion, delusion, confusion are also strongly activated by the combination of Pisces and it’s paired planet Neptune.
Both the planet Neptune and the related sign Pisces are prominent is March 2016.

Piscean and Neptunian influenced people can be among the most religious, in extreme cases the devotion leads to a cult of adoration centred around a charismatic figure onto whom godlike qualities are projected. Religious fundamentalism is another path – one followed by those who emphasise the notions of purity and purification to a level that requires punishment, repression, even annihilation of those who fail to adhere.
Pisces people are the most likely to be deceived – or to deceive others and many will either fall prey to being conned or to defraud others -so watch out for cheats, frauds & thieves when Pisces is strong.

Pisces is in polarity with Virgo and recent months have seen many unable to zone out into Pisces mode because of too much work -a situation triggered by Jupiter in Virgo. The effect is again very strong this month.
The Pisces state of mind is the opposite of the Virgo state - Pisces sees the bigger picture, the interconnectedness and the spiritual flow between all beings, all things. Virgo is the analytical mind that sorts into categories, classifications, systems and functions. This is intended to attain efficiency and perfection, neatness, tidiness, orderliness -but Virgo can get so caught up in fine, hair-splitting detail that the meaning is lost. Pisces needs a bit more balance in order to step out of the chaos of the Whole picture. 
Balance is always a theme when two polar signs arise together.

In this new millennium there are many indicators of the return of religious fundamentalism and this energy is emphasised in the time frame of the March 2016 total solar eclipse New Moon in Pisces.

Eclipse energy has a much wider window of effect than the usual monthly Moon events. 
Building energy can be triggered even weeks in advance of the exact conjunction of the eclipse Sun & Moon and the themes exist in their potential activation state during at least the 6 month period until the next eclipse period.

Why is this eclipse so potent?

Multiple energies will leapfrog and synergise in a chain reaction effect. This eclipse carries along with it many other planetary forces in a tight range of connectivity.
Powerfully built eclipse formations such as this occur in the context of world events with mass impact.

March 2016 has two eclipses
March 9 total solar in Pisces
March 23 lunar at the full moon in Aries-Libra
The month overall has energies likely to manifest through the following themes -some but not all will occur in your location, some will have global implications.
People born March, June, September, December of any year are most likely to experience effects carrying one or more of the Pisces-Virgo, Aries Libra themes :
  • Extreme, fluctuating, volatile and contrasting conditions
  • Big winners, big losers in financial/economic/business contexts
  • Environmental/climate/weather extremes
  • Structural earth stresses – seismic and volcanic
  • Structural collapse – in any context
  • Economic consequences as a result of stalled growth
  • Global markets, economic indicators show extremes
  • Restrictions, mass layoffs and slumps in the job market
  • Destructive, anarchic human extremism driven by repressive ideologies, fundamentalist or purist religious dogma
  • Further hardening of political response to migrants, foreign nationals.
  • Further indicators of unpredictable unprecedented political events
  • Travel advisories or alerts, travel restrictions, problems or cancellations
The Aries-Libra eclipse late in March 2016 has more financial/economic effects –with big losses in some sectors, big gains in others, consequences for employment, mass job losses
War and Peace =Mars and Venus energies are also on the table. More aggressive activity, more efforts at peacemaking, co-operation, building rather than destroying relationships.

March 26  follows the March 23 eclipse with a quartet of energies in the 16-17 degree range:
Jupiter-Saturn-Venus-Pluto.
This means Venus is the target of 3 planets that are determined to engage
Venus is money, love/relationships, peace.
Jupiter is an expanding and beneficial bringer of abundance
Saturn is a contracting and restrictive bringer of losses
Pluto is a challenging, sometimes cruel force that can destroy so that the new can be born


So overall there are more difficulties, more people encountering the suffering aspects re relationships, money and harmonious balance –versus maybe the 1% who always gain when the majority fall over – as is well known in the stock and share markets of the world and when housing values collapse – so this late March eclipse may be a significant crisis indicator for the world economy.

In addition starting from this late March period the Saturn-Jupiter stress could be a risky than usual time for overseas or foreign travel - the eclipse influence can extend this risk period for 6 months from March - and April-May 2016 could see a major aviation tragedy.


Eclipses - how do they work?
The fundamental significance of eclipses is that they have the power to amplify whatever forces are operating in the time frame, in addition to the basic consequences of the sun and moon working in tandem.
The result is that eclipses are known as signposts or markers of significant global events

How are patterns identified?

The mathematics are always the first clue.
The geometric mathematics of astrology range from simple angles such as 90 or 180 degrees through to much more unusual divisions of the 360 degree circle. All these different angles have signature effects.
But what makes a pattern easier to spot is when multiple planets occupy a narrow range of degree positions.

The eclipse for March 9 2016 has a tight grouping in the range 16-22 degrees.

Saturn-Pluto-Uranus-Jupiter-Sun-Moon at 16-17-18-19 degrees are all tightly connected to each other
Chiron at 20 degrees closely conjuncts Sun+Moon
The lunar nodal axis at 22 degrees links Sun-Moon-Jupiter-Chiron.

Many significant fires also clustered around the eclipse. This was not due to Pisces energy but due to the connected planets Pluto-Uranus-Jupiter - with Uranus being in the fire sign Aries -all forms of aggression were amplified by Pluto combining with Jupiter channelled through Uranus= sudden fire in elemental form, sudden aggression in people.

Lunar events are known to coincide with extreme behaviour and the March 23 eclipse, as forecast in report, stimulated aggressive activity, while the ideological extremism stimulated under the early March eclipse remains in effect. No surprise that transport networks -as warned here - were targeted.
