e all know the power and amazing benefits of eating healthy. Today, many consumers have made the change to cut out foods which only offer empty calories and opt for unprocessed natural foods that actually provide the nutrients we need to be healthy. Eating healthier whole foods is definitely a smart and inexpensive health insurance plan. Why stop there? While it is important to watch what we put inside our bodies – it’s equally important that we care what we put ON our body as well. Many skin care products have ingredients that we cannot pronounce let alone even know what they mean. Think about it; our skin is our largest organ. Why cover it with chemicals that we are unsure of the long-term effect that they will have on our bodies? Stop thinking, and don’t worry! Your perfect solution has arrived with Indie Lee: All natural – Wholesome Skincare. Indie Lee products are a truely unprocessed skin care line, that is gentle enough for any skin type.

It is important to put natural INside our bodies and just as essential to put natural OUTside as well. Take the guess work out of your skin care routine and go with all-natural, wholesome skincare from Indie Lee.

Happy Birthday ARIES Get ready to charge!! Your ruler Mars dashes into your sign on the 12th, bringing with it an extra level of energy and vitality that you can use in every area of your life. Set goals and go after what you want! Slow the pace just a little on the road and when working with sharp instruments – or burning yourself with a straightening iron or hair dryer. Mars in your sign is both a good thing and a not so good thing. While he is definitely a motivator and a planet that pushes you all the time, he also can encourage you to do silly things that you regret (like speeding and getting a ticket, or biting off way more than you can chew).
Your sense of adventure and a whole lot of wanderlust comes alive inside you this month, especially around the time of the New Moon in Pisces on the 11th. This new Moon along with Mercury the communicator activates your ninth house of long distance travel, spirituality and higher learning. However with Mercury out of phase here until the 17th, try to avoid booking tickets or traveling until Mercury has moved direct.
Look forward to the 17th when Mercury the communicator turns direct in Pisces, your solar 11th house of hopes, dreams and wishes. Take the innovative to mend misunderstandings with friends that occurred during the retrograde period (Feb 23 – March 17) and try to reschedule dates and events that were cancelled since the end of February. Someone you talk with on the 7th could deliver good news or really come through for you by the end of March.
Motivator Mars, the planet of action and adventure enters Aries, your fellow fire sign and ninth house on the 12th, followed by the Sun and Venus on the 21st. Together these planetary influences will put you in touch with in–laws and people at a distance – you will feel like reaching out even to the most annoying people! Expect challenges with some of them. The same could be true if you have an out of town work related meeting. A relatives health issue could require your attention. Don’t take on more than you can handle though. If you need help or advice, ask for it.
You’ll be an attention go– While many of you want getter under the March 11 to go your own way this New Moon in Pisces. You month, your ruler Mercould even hear more good cury the planet of comnews on the horizon, with mon sense currently in more to come on the 28TH retrograde mode isn’t or near that date. . Mercury allowing you too much your ruler and the planet of freedom. Plus others communication and clear are constantly asking thinking finally moves direct for your help, advice in Pisces on the 17th so you and input, which you rewill start to feel like your ‘old ally don’t have the time or the inkling to provide. Tell all those self’ again. Being out of phase since Feb 23 has thrown a ma- hanger oners to work it out for themselves. You trust in their jor spanner in many Gemini’s works! judgement. Save all your best ideas for later in the month when Mercury turns direct and the competition really heats up.
MARCH Everything seems wobDitch your constant need to bly and off kilter this be the nicest person you’ve month, especially the ever met. This whole ‘balancfirst week. This brings ing act’ is getting stale isn’t it? out many goats crazy Mercury out of phase in your and legendary desire hard work zone suggests that for control. Forget it all sorts of dramas are ungirls. With Mercury in folding on the hour in the offull retrograde mode fice. You can only smooth so in your ‘to do list’ zone many ruffled feathers and atthrough mid–March, tempt to ‘talk someone off the now is not the time to ledge’ so many times. Trying to be the cheerleader for everyinsist on ‘your way or the highway’. The best solution is to recone is frankly exhausting. Embrace your true feelings and say ognize that no matter what problems crop up, you can solve what’s on your mind for once. them. Not in your usual way perhaps, but in the end you will be satisfied. Stop sweating the small stuff too!
Your plans take several unexpected twists and turns this week, leaving you irritated and annoyed. You like things to run smoothly, however with Mercury out of phase in your fun zone, chances are, ‘whatever can go wrong will go wrong’. Don’t take it personally or make any major changes in your life path because things will shift back to the direction you originally set, leaving some of you feeling slightly resentful (because isn’t it kinda rad to be all over the place?)
Take care of yourself this month. If you need a booze free/smoke free month, this is the time to do it. Intellectually, emotionally and spiritually, now is the time for you to moderation, not inflation, caution versus risk. This means that you turn the volume inside your head down and stop rushing towards the finish line before you have done the job properly. Life can still be fun at half speed girls. With Mercury and Saturn retrograding, it’s time to take it easy.
A few dodgy decisions you’ve made lately need revision this month. With common sense Mercury out of phase in your self–esteem and cash flow zone, you’ve plunked down money for things that you don’t really need or want. So hopefully you’ve kept your receipts and are up for dealing with the not so nice returns manager. This Mercury retrograde is teaching you to see the broader potential of your planned course of action. Being a fixed sign, once your mind is made up, it’s made up. Right now you see the wisdom in being able to go with the flow a lot more. Your energy reserves are unquenchable, yet you can’t move forward. It’s all the fault of your brain, which is kinda stuck through the 17th until Mercury moves direct in your sign. Plus you’ve got Mars the motivator in your sign through the 13th which is tempting you with all sorts of delicious things to do and of course, with Mercury out of phase, you simply can’t afford to take that risk.
