The Magician
"It is only prudent never to place complete confidence in that by which we have even once been deceived.” ~ René Descartes
In the Major Arcana of the tarot The Magician possesses great power, but most often chooses to exercise this power in hidden or secret ways. Therefore, when this card appears it tells us we need to be aware of those 'behind the scenes' in our world and wider society who may use their power in underhand ways to create or manipulate global events or to lead public opinion. Despite what may appear to be happening on the surface in our world, always be watchful for any kind of trickery or pay attention to things that just don't 'feel right' to you. Before you react, just take a breath. Read behind and beyond the news headlines. Ask yourself- 'who would benefit most from any kneejerk reaction?' This reading and card are actually asking us to see and exercise our own powers- and to be the magician in our lives.
In March there'll be a growing desire in people worldwide to throw off- and to protest against- all the external influences that would prefer to keep them continually pitted in conflict..
On an individual level The Magician card is a signal to break the spell of any mental habits or conditioning that may be holding us back from achieving our goals. The energy of March is also about manifesting. It's a time to get very specific and to have a clear vision of what you want before you act. This is an especially powerful time for those who like to make vision boards and create intention lists. You can be the one who makes great things happen in your life this month...!
March Events: In March, 2023 the French people took to the streets in huge numbers, fiercely protesting against President Macron's changes to Pension Age Laws and also against Macron himself and his Govt.
The Wheel Of Fortune
"The measure of intelligence is the ability to change" ~Albert Einstein
The energy of the Wheel Of Fortune card here is a powerful reflection of the current world situation, where events seem to always be running too rapidly for anyone to control. In these days so many people wonder -or dread- what drama or calamity may occur next. We seem to have been living with such unpredictable and scary conditions for a long time and it's both unnerving and exhausting when factors outside our control appear to be constantly present in everyday life. So often it feels very hard to look forward to anything when so many are going through the most difficult of times.
So what kind of changes and world events can we expect in March? Politically, we could see further high profile resignations of senior figures as well as changes of leadership within the UK.
It may be that one or two of the bigger European Union nations may experience events involving security breaches.
In the USA an unexpected candidate may announce their run for the Presidency. Sadly, the world may also experience sudden physical events like more earthquakes or heavy snowstorms that appear rapidly. The Wheel Of Fortune card carries a message that the wheel is always turning. Life is in a state of constant change. Know that we won't always be 'on the edge'. We'll inevitably return to more stable times. Do expect better things to come and stay flexible - but always have a Plan B, anyway.
March Events: In March 2023, The Scottish National Party chief executive Peter Murrell resigned after taking responsibility for misleading the media about party membership numbers. Murrell is married to outgoing party leader and First Minister Nicola Sturgeon, who resigned in Feb 2023
Amidst the March protests and rioting in France, the state visit of King Charles III and the Queen Consort had to be called off. News reports suggested that the French authorities were not confident they could prevent security breaches and provide protection for the British Monarch amidst the ongoing protests and social unrest
Devastating tornadoes in Missisppi, USA this March. Further earth tremors happened in both Turkey and New Zealand. Unexpected and heavy snowstorms hit the UK
The King Of Swords
"In a time of universal deceit—telling the truth is a revolutionary act.” ~George Orwell
The King Of Swords represents truth and power and for the rest of March the message is clear- whoever holds the sword wields the power. When power combines with strong ethics and a genuine concern for the good of others, truly great things can be achieved. This card indicates new beginnings but sometimes these new beginnings can only come after times of chaos. As challenging as it is, we often need to make a clean, clear surface on which to start again. Despite how things may currently appear, a wiser and more mature energy is now actually starting to establish itself in many places. We may not yet see the reversals of some of the more unsettling of the recent changes in society, However, those big changes heralded by the previous appearance of the Wheel Of Fortune card have now begun to manifest.
In tarot, three of the strongest things represented by swords are justice, laws and truth. This March, these three things may be linked and go hand in had as there may be several exposés in the media that deal with issues of high level corruption and underhand tactics. These will lead to subsequent changes to the laws of at least two major countries. There may also be an overhaul of the actual press/media itself with the ownership or leadership of a huge media company changing hands. The end of this month may also bring a public enquiry into the actions and ethics of a global organisation that's connected with healthcare. Lastly- we may see more activity concerned with Unidentified Objects in the skies. This may force certain organisations and leaders to release previously hidden information. Truths are about to be revealed.
March Events: WhatsApp messages of former UK Govt Health Minister Matt Hancock were leaked to the UK press and seemed to reveal that Simon Case the UK Cabinet Secretary had discussed with Matt Hancock about "ramping up messaging" to the British public about Covid19 and adding the "fear/guilt factor" was "vital".
In the USA, FBI Director Christopher Wray said that the bureau believes Covid-19 most likely originated in a Chinese government-controlled lab. "The FBI has for quite some time now assessed that the origins of the pandemic are most likely a potential lab incident," It is the first public confirmation of the FBI's classified judgement of how and where the pandemic virus may have emerged.
The Emperor
"No man is good enough to govern another man without that other's consent" ~Abraham Lincoln
By the end of March, more serious people and energies emerge. The Emperor card truly does mirror many people's profound desire for a much firmer and more moral stance from leaders. We'll see the rise to power of new political figures who truly embody 'firm but fair' political philosophies. If I were to sum up the energy of this card as representing the direction of travel, I'd say it has potential to create calm out of chaos. We've all experienced a great deal of struggle and are living through a period where so many people's security is still being undermined. However, it seems we're about to move into a time where we'll experience stability and the restoration of a sense of both private and public safety .
Socially and politically, there'll be significant support given to more orthodox or conventional movements from March onwards. This month may not have many actual elections on the calendar for many countries but it's during this time that the political direction of some of the most powerful nations are truly going to be decided. We need to note that not all leaders are politicians, though. One of these in particular may in fact 'show their hand' in March and make an impassioned public statement to the people of their country, This will gain them huge approval and renewed support. Another prominent public figure may also speak out and then found an organisation dedicated to protecting rights. They too will gain great public support for their actions.
March Events: Famous UK television presenter and soccer star Gary Lineker received huge publicity and support from fellow sports pundits, broadcasters and sections of the UK public when he was taken off the air and then reinstated by the BBC. The BBC had apparently taken Lineker off air for an impassioned public tweet he wrote in which he strongly critiqued the British Government and the language it used to launch asylum seeker policy
