Horoscope for March 2012 for Aquarius

Your health and vitality are still going strong now, though they are both on the wane just a bit. That's to be expected, considering the weeks you've had recently. There's nothing wrong with taking a little time to recuperate. What you really need to be concerned about is the fact that Mercury is entering retrograde on the 12th, which will have more than a little detrimental affect on your ability to communicate effectively with the other people in your life. You're going to have a to be cautious this month to watch every word carefully for fear of offending or being misunderstood. Speak only when you must, and then, be concise.

Your world won't come to a halt because of the retrograde affect, but you will want to slow down considerably, especially in your dealings with others. If you don't, you're going to find you're plagued by a variety of disruptions, delays and minor mistakes. Phone calls will be missed, emails truncated and instant messages mis-filed. If you've ordered anything via post, you can almost count on that item showing up significantly later than the promised delivery date. Everything is going to take long and be more complicated than you anticipated. A lot of this is due to the fact that your communication skills are poor at the moment. However, take heart; if you take a little extra caution and double-check your work, you'll probably be okay in the end.

On the downside, this seeming inability to communicate could cause more than minor inconveniences, depending on the circumstances. In fact, life threatening scenarios could develop. Your doctor, for instance, may prescribe the wrong medication or the pharmacist could accidentally give you the incorrect dosage of a medicine. On an even more dramatic note, you could wind up on a flight in which the pilot loses contact with the ground communication and be forced into an emergency landing. Because of this danger, during the month of March you should avoid travel when possible, keep away from operating or even being on large machinery, or doing any other activity in which communication is key to success. You should be doing everything in your power to make sure all lines of communication are as open and clear as possible.

Communication with children in your life is especially important this month. Don't assume a child "gets" what you're saying; there's a good chance he or she does not. Likewise, it will be easy for you to misunderstand the ramblings of your particular young one. Don't hesitate to ask for clarification at every turn, if that's what it takes to keep the waters from becoming muddy. No one will think less of you and others may even appreciate the additional clarity that comes to the conversation.

Your love life, thank heavens, is the one area in your life that seems to be moving along smoothly this month, with the possibility of a few hurtles between the 1st and 5th. During this time, you may wind up arguing with your significant other about trivial matters. If possible, try to avoid any power struggles at this time as they are likely to spiral out of control and become bigger problems than you really need to deal with right now.
