Taurus will get more money, Gemini should get career boost and opportunities, Virgo - a good relationship, Sagittarius can focus on home, Aquarius can save money and Pisces and overall boost.

Mars's retrograde comes to an end on 10th- and this further focuses on its weakness. Aries and Scorpio ascendant need to continue to tread softly in life till 25 May. Their choices are limited and it is best to keep your head down and not expect too much. As soon as Mars goes out of debilitation there will a big boost to counter all those months spend in the sidelines. It further weakens defense sector of all countries.

Mercury goes debilitated on 15 March- it is also combust at that time.

The New Moon in Pisces on 16 March in India and 15 March in USA. This  is the beginning of the New Year and the new Annual panchangas. This day is known as Chaitra Shukla pratipada- the first day of the month of Chitra when the new Panchangas are traditionally opened and prayers done to the nine planets to their blessings. The creation is said to have begun on Chaitra Shukla Pratipada and therefore we celebrate this day annually. Traditionally we study the charts of the countries and make predictions for what is happening for the coming year. The Exact time to make the Chaitra Shukla Pratipada chart  for USA is 15 March 2010 at 17.01 Washington DC. USA still appears to be struggling yet making positive changes. Charts  are always made for the Capitol city of the country. UK chart would be for 21.01 GMT. This shows a turbulent year ahead for UK. While Venus is exalted for this chart- it alone cannot help the quality of time. Chaitra Shukla for all countries will have Sun opposite the Saturn showing weakness for the Heads of States. Debilitated Mars in the Chaitra Shukla chart again indicates weakness in Defense for all countries. This will be a good time for them to rethink their strategies and focus more on peace rather than attack. This can give a much needed rest to all Forces.
