Friday March 27: How to Celebrate March with Mars, Marshalls, and Guinea Pigs
Thank goodness it’s Friday, March 27. There’s something special about this time of year, as March draws to a close and we start to catch that first hint of Easter in the air. The sun is fighting to break through, and you can’t help but feel a flutter of excitement—things are finally happening. I’ve been chatting with a few readers this morning who are feeling a huge surge of energy, and if you look at the stars today, it’s easy to see why.
Today’s Horoscope: The Stars’ Advice for Friday
For those who follow astrology, this is a seriously interesting day. Aries, currently in their prime, is getting a visit from a harmonious aspect that will make all those projects you kicked off earlier this month suddenly fall into place. Leo, on the other hand, should pay close attention to communication. Word on the street is there might be a slight tendency for misunderstandings around lunchtime, so double-check those texts before you hit send. For me, born under a different sign, it’s more about daring to let go of control. Mars is shining strong in the sky, pushing us to take those steps we’ve been putting off. Today isn’t the day to be timid—it’s the day to take action.
From Outer Space to Your Living Room
When we talk about Mars (the planet, not the month), it instantly gets me thinking about something completely different. Maybe that’s why my social feeds have been flooded with a specific trend this week. People online are doing what they call the “Marshalls challenge”—you know, that American chain where you can score deals for next to nothing. It turns out the new Friday night ritual is hunting for bargains at Marshalls, then cozying up at home with a giant bag of marshmallows on the couch. And I have to say, I am totally on board.
- Marshalls: Perfect for finding those unique décor pieces for the Easter long weekend.
- Marshmallow: An absolute must for making homemade Easter treats or just snuggling up with a cup of coffee.
- Guinea Pigs: No, this isn’t about shopping for pets, but isn’t it cute how the word pops up so close to Easter?
Guinea Pigs, Easter Soda, and That Friday Feeling
Talking about guinea pigs takes me back to when I was a kid and we had one named Ludde. If you have kids at home right now (spring break is coming up fast), this is the perfect weekend to get a little crafty. Let the little ones draw some guinea pigs or cut out egg shapes. Pair that with bringing out the Easter soda and some marshmallows from the pantry, and you’ve got yourself a Friday night that’s hard to beat. It’s not about doing anything fancy; it’s about capturing that feeling of March—that transition between winter and spring that’s so charged with anticipation.
I’m convinced this is going to be one of the best weekends in a long time. Whether you spend it hunting for the season’s chicest potted plant at Marshalls, or you’d rather be sprawled on the couch eating marshmallows while gazing at the stars—just do what feels right for you. Mars (the planet) gives us courage, and the month of March brings us light. Let’s do this!
