On Wednesday of the first week in March, Venus and Uranus conjoin in late Pisces.  This is an influence to watch with interest.  These two planets arrive at the same point in the zodiac at least once each year, so it's a fairly common event.  Nonetheless, it's an astrological combination that sparks action in the area of creativity and in relationships. 

Venus is the archetype or astrological power that brings us into an awareness of beauty, of comfort, of pleasantry, and of commonality.  Uranus is the archetype or astrological power that brings us into an awareness of fresh new concepts, of extraordinary ideas, of the unconventional and unusual, and of extreme genius and intuition.

Obviously, the combination of these two energies promises interesting results.  Creative artists will thrive with this energy, being inspired by bright new ideas and clever concepts.  The decorative arts appeal to all, with a lean toward the  avant-garde, the wacky, and the way out.  Organizations will be affected in such a way as to question social policies and see how more may be included.

In the relationship area, the big problem this week is the need for variety and creative engagement.  If there is boredom or a feature of repetitive action in a relationship, one or the other person is likely to rebel against it this week.  What can be done to avert problems is to deliberately invite variety into together time, such as playing different music, seeing different shows, or fixing different foods.  Anything that provides a shift from the dull normal routine will help here.

At the same time, however, it should be noted that the universe is likely to throw some odd curves our way this week.  The unexpected is sure to figure in.  The word for the week is surprise.  Some surprises may be very welcome.  Also we can all expect to make contact with individuals and organizations that we don't normally interact with. This will give us a view into the world along another angle, which is a good thing.  Perspective is opened whenever Uranus influences, so we can expect that this week.  One very positive way this may work out is that we will be lifted out of our usual thought grooves and shown intriguing alternatives.  Some of these can work out for artistic and spiritual advantage, but we must keep our wits about us and not just fall under the spell of anything weird and freaky that comes along.  If we look deeper, we will find redeeming ideas somewhere in the mix this week.
