Venus, the planet of love, enters the sign of Aries this morning.  Aries is the most assertive sign of the zodiac, therefore - you guessed it, assertions of love will become more aggressive / obvious.  Women (as Venus rules women) may take more initiative over the course of March, since Venus stays in Aries until April 1st.  This gives us our first indication of Spring to come, because Aries represents the dawn of Spring.  And true to form, we are experiencing our warmest day so far this year on the East Coast.

Most of us will be more direct in our love relationships or with our initiatives, as Venus can be a bit raw in Aries, which is a Mars (action / aggression / rules men) driven sign.

Also today, Venus (now in Aries) will TRINE Mars (in Leo).  This could prove interesting and there may be some "theater" or drama in our love relationships.  I'm aware of at least one incident of this first thing this morning.  Trust me, if you use the energy correctly, this could prove to be very, very fun.  Of course, the object of your affections must be a willing participant, in order for this work well.  Men and women will certainly get along better than usual with this trine, as this is a cooperative angle.  There will be little question as to what the other one is thinking!!!!
