The quality of time in March introduces us to totally new themes; we will feel that the "great wheel of time" is now turning a great deal further. For, in addition to the usual astrological start of the year, indicated by the Sun's entry into Aries on March 20/21, two more planets change signs this month: Saturn enters Pisces on March 7, and Pluto enters Aquarius on March 23.
It is worth accompanying this change with alert senses, for both planets know how to make their presence felt when ignored.
Saturn, as the "guardian of the threshold," is associated with personal and societal boundaries. During its time in Pisces, whose task is to dissolve and transcend earthly forms, it calls for clarifying the personal relationship with spirituality and faith. It sometimes tends towards certain strictness of faith and seclusion during this time.
Those who overcome their fears can now find a deep trust in the flow of time. Saturn finally leaves Pisces again in February 2026. Read Lynn Bell's article "Saturn in Pisces - Dissolving Boundaries" for more insights.
Pluto is the ruler of the underworld. It brings us into contact with unconscious areas of the psyche that we need to integrate. Since it stays in one sign of the zodiac for a long time, it acts on the collective level. Only in 2044 will it finally leave this sign again. During these two decades, our understanding of the Aquarian qualities will change significantly.
These are, among other things, the images and ideas we have of our world and our views of personal freedom and obligations to the collective. But our dealings with technology are also part of Aquarius' catalog of topics, especially the Internet and electronic media.
Pluto's job is to make sure that what is no longer viable disappears from this world. It tends not to be overlooked and to make its mark each time it first enters a sign of the zodiac. So we shouldn't be surprised if there is some unrest in the days around March 23.
Of course, other themes shape the quality of time in March too. The month begins with a promising conjunction of Venus and Jupiter on March 2. It is the "smaller" and the "greater" fortunes that connect here for a moment.
Mercury is conjunct Saturn on the last degree of Aquarius and enters Pisces on the same day. Venus reaches Chiron on March 3. The confident mood makes you want to be adventurous. It is time to take a bold step into something completely new. Love could also ignite all of a sudden now.
The Full Moon in Virgo on March 7 coincides with Saturn's entry into Pisces. You can now recognize doubt and faith as two sides of the same coin.
Jupiter reaches its conjunction with Chiron on March 12. Old wounds can hurt now and need active attention. The question is whether the struggle is still worth it. Mars in Gemini squares Pisces-Neptune on March 15. The following day the Sun and Mercury also reach Neptune and square Mars. The weakness and lack of energy you may experience at that time could turn into a moment of truth in places, as it becomes almost impossible to pretend everything is fine.
Use this time to withdraw a little from the hustle and bustle of everyday life and go inward. Nevertheless, this will not stop some from continuing to promise the moon. Be critical! Venus is square Pluto and enters Taurus, indicating that there is more to life than expediency.

Metaplex is building a new asset class, Programmable NFTs, that allows for flexible configuration of various lifecycle rules, including certain transfer restrictions that can be used by creators to enforce royalties. The new asset class is called Programmable NFTs.
Here is how the new asset class will work at a high-level:
Programmable NFTs can include “rule sets” that can be configured by creators. Creators will be able to enable royalties enforcement by specifying in these rule sets which programs may transfer their NFTs.
