Go on down in person and have them issue you a new one right there. Don't accept no for an answer. Go directly to their bank and see if you can cash it. If it bounces again, report them to the state authorities for fraud. Stupid fuckers.

Oy. This career exploration stuff requires a bit of focus I'm finding, yet it satisfies some of my investigative leanings somehow.

And here I thought it was a helpful reminder to be aware. :) February I spoiled myself a bit, which is out of the ordinary though kind of not surprising when I consider it kind of like an extended birthday present to myself for a change.

Aquarius Horoscope for March 2009 By Susan Miller You should be feeling light and happy as you enter March. After a long drought, opportunities are popping up like sunflowers everywhere you look. With each passing day you will see that your life is gradually getting better in every way. With Jupiter back in Aquarius for the first time in 12 years, all changes - even enforced ones - will eventually work to benefit you. You will have another benefit this month in that you still have Mars in Aquarius, an enormous advantage. Mars entered your sign in February and will stay until March 14. Use the first two weeks of March to initiate your most vital endeavors, for the force will be with you. You are ready to press forward in new directions, both in your personal and professional life, so there really is no reason to delay. Admittedly, finances will continue to need your attention for they are the one area that appears not be going the way you would like. You seem to have been susceptible to a great deal of financial turbulence over the past 18 months and that will be the case again this month. Saturn, the taskmaster planet, has toured your eighth house of credit and debt since September 2, 2007, and has been on a mission to make you more realistic, practical, and conservative with money. You are getting much, much better at maintaining a middle course now and avoiding some of the extremes, but some of what is happening isn't completely under your control. Saturn is due to leave on October 29, 2009, and won't be back to this house until 2036. You will be happy to see Saturn go. Because this teacher planet orbits slowly around the Sun and will have no time to give you a refresher course on finances after it moves on, Saturn will make sure the lessons he imparts now will be vivid and indelible. It's unusual that you would ALSO have another heavy-duty planet in another financial sector of your chart - but you do, and actually they are positioned opposite each other. Saturn is in your eighth house of other people's money and 180 degrees away you have Uranus, the planet of innovation and volatility, in your second house of personal salary, savings, and possessions. Uranus entered this part of your chart in 2003 and will remain there until 2011. Once Uranus leaves, it will never return to this part of your chart in your lifetime. Uranus has caused a lot of the rocking and rolling of your finances over the years, but it is also the planet that will help you find miraculous and unexpected infusions of cash at other times, sometimes just in the nick of time. Uranus is a modern planet, so one of his first gifts is to help you see that you have will step with the times. You will be taught flexibility and to find ways to manage and stabilize your finances. Uranus teaches that we need to continually innovate, and in your case, find new sources of income. Since Uranus started to tour this house in 2003, you probably already learned that you couldn't depend on a client, employer, or other source of income to last forever. That is such a hard truth to accept, for it is human nature to hope that it will. In the case of an employer, Uranus made you aware that it would be important to note how the company was doing, and if it was not doing well, to start writing your resume and keeping your eyes open for new jobs. At least once in our lives it seems reasonable to assume we will lose one source of income, and when it happens the news is always unexpected. That is how Uranus works. Uranus wants us to be resourceful, but boy, oh, boy, those lessons can feel like torture when we are going through them. When my mother (who taught me astrology) would talk with me philosophically when I was a teenager about why these things happened, I remember her saying quietly to me, "Man learns through pain, Susan." She's always been right about that - we learn faster when we have no choice but to find a solution. This was hammered home to me last year when I lost my two-page column in the magazine I loved so dearly, InStyle. I had been there four years, but last year a new editor decided she did not want astrology in the magazine anymore. I am not an Aquarius, but I have a very powerful Uranus conjunct my ascendant, and it rules my mid-heaven (career and reputation point), so in a way I am just like you. The effect is the same. No one is immune to these lessons. Nothing lasts forever. With these two heavy-duty planets in your houses of income and debt, you could go from feast to famine, and back to feast again, all within a very short time. Hopefully, you will remain on the black side of the ledger, but with these gyrating planets, there are no guarantees. The answer lies within you, dear Aquarius, and depends on your level of resourcefulness and determination. Your mission will be to find the safest and most secure route, if you have been plagued with ups and downs. You may not be able to depend on others to help you, but with your aspects, you can depend on yourself, so be your own best friend. Here is what I see this month. Over the weekend of March 7-8, Saturn will oppose the Sun, and you are likely to be quite concerned over a money issue. It is possible that you may feel depressed or overwhelmed about the number of bills you have to pay. Don't feel that way, dear Aquarius. There are solutions, and often right in front of you. Because the Sun rules your partnership house, if you have a marriage or business partner, you may be feel that your partner is not pulling his or her weight and is putting too much burden on your shoulders. You may be working two jobs, or always paying for more than your share. This seems to have been going on for quite a while. The two of you may argue over finances over the weekend of March 7-8. Alternatively, it may be that certain funds you expected to receive from your partner (or ex) will not materialize over that weekend or in the days that quickly follow. For example, you may be awaiting a child support check or a reimbursement for a purchase you made that your partner had agreed to split with you, but it does not appear to be forthcoming. While your partner may seem irresponsible, it is also possible that your partner may have encountered turbulence in life lately because of a medical condition, sudden unemployment, or other reversal. That may explain why the money is not coming. No doubt, the weekend of March 7-8 will be stressful for you, but it will for most people of all signs. Make sure you get enough rest as you enter into this weekend. If you are tired, you may feel overwhelmed, and tiny problems will be magnified. Two days later, the full moon of March 10 will bring the matter to a head. Aspects will be very tough at that time too, perhaps even more so when the issue culminates. The moon will fall close to Saturn, and Saturn will oppose Uranus and the Sun simultaneously. This full moon will be laden with emotion and could easily make you feel like you're on an emotional rollercoaster. There is no doubt that at this full moon you will know you've reached the end of the line. Money again will be bound up with what is happening. You may need to write a check or you may be expecting an investment or payment that does not come. It is also possible you will need to finalize insurance or a court claim, or other financial plan such as a divorce settlement. If are leaving your company as a top executive, you'll be given your final severance package. If an inheritance has been held up in the courts, news would come this weekend about how the estate would be divided or handled. However, with Saturn on the moon, the amount seems to be less than you had hoped it would be. This same house that is being lit up is the house of taxes, so I suggest you not see your accountant to finalize your tax return during the week of March 8-14. Collect your receipts, of course, and get everything ready, but considering how jarring this week could be for finances, you may want to delay until later in the month getting the final answer about what you might owe the government. I suggest March 19, if it has to be this month, but actually, I like the April 9 full moon, plus or minus one day, for this. Uranus will reach a peak conjunction with the Sun on March 12, and will overlap its messages with the full moon, March 10. Your partner or rival may be completely unpredictable, or the situation itself will seem weird or strange, and of course, it will also be unexpected, for that's Uranus' trademark. Another better possibility will be that your partner will come up with a brilliant plan and save the day. Let's hope that it turns out to be the latter. Those type extremes are typical of Uranus, too. When Mars tours Pisces from March 14 until April 22, your expenses will likely rise. I am sorry to have to deliver this news too, but thankfully this period will be fairly short. If you have planned to make a big outlay of cash for a car or house, as two instances of a big-ticket item, you would be ready for it. If, conversely, you have no plans to spend, then you may want to space out your big purchases. It appears you will have unexpected expenses, perhaps for a dental bill, repair on your house or car, or other pricey out-of-the-blue expense. If you humorously say that buying lotto tickets have become your new retirement account plan, oh gee, I am sorry to say that is not likely to work. Saturn, now in your house of prizes, would make winning the jackpot highly unlikely these days. But here is the good news: Your long-term outlook for earning a good income is fantastic, especially now that Jupiter is orbiting close to Neptune, the ruler of your second house of wealth and earned income. Jupiter will make his first contact with Neptune on May 27 of this year, and then again on July 10 and December 21, 2009. Yet Jupiter and Neptune won't have to actually touch to bring you terrific money-making opportunities. These planets will be fairly close to one another by the end of March, within 6.5 degrees of each other, practically "within orb" (meaning, in my words, "in conversation") and therefore able to bring you benefits. You have every reason to believe things will get better. If you work in the arts, or work to support creative types in your work, your prospects glow extra-brightly. I should mention that the full moon on March 10 could bring an end to a health condition when your doctor suggests medical or dental surgery. The eighth house is the house of transformation, so in this case, the surgeon will remove what you no longer need - the part making you sick - to allow you to transform into a well person again. Surgery is a very powerful form of transformation. Also, money I see you thinking about this month could be the money dealings you have with your health care provider or with the doctor or dentist who will perform the procedure. You may see someone you adore leave your immediate environment this month and if so, being a full moon, that relationship will now move into a different realm. There is a possibility that you may not see this person ever again, or if you do, more rarely. If you have a pet, this may be alternatively true of that animal, say, if your ex is given custody of your little dog or cat. Life is a series of beginnings and endings. I am sympathetic, dear Aquarius. I don't do well with endings either. Everyone, of every sign, will feel these aspects, but each sign will feel them in a different way for they will fall in a different part of the chart. I want to emphasize that this full moon March 10, plus or minus four days, could work out to be exclusively about money for you. I have listed other possible manifestations here of that full moon, but those may not apply to you. So relax - you can handle whatever comes up. You may decide to take a little trip in March's last week, thanks to the new moon March 26. Considering all that will be going on this month, that would be a great idea. Take full advantage of this chance to get away, even if all you can muster is a business trip. This same new moon may bring you a contract or other papers to sign, but if so it looks like you'll need to negotiate many of the points of that contract. Pluto will do battle with the new moon, Sun, Venus, and Mercury, all at once at the time of the new moon March 26. Pluto's position makes this new moon period a very unfavorable one for finding any sort of compromise. It seems to me that you won't be talking, negotiating, or ever seeing the "Mr. Big" who is calling the shots behind the scenes. You will be meeting with this guy's messenger, so to speak. I doubt this lesser person will admit this, for it will reveal that your negotiator is weak. Your point person will have to get everything approved by the person upstairs and this puts you at a bit of a disadvantage for you won't be able to reason with the person making the final decisions. Actually, it may not matter much because Pluto's position shows that the man upstairs, Mr. Big, who is so powerful, will not be in any mood to make concessions. In that respect, this negotiation is not really a negotiation but a dictate: "Take it or leave it." If you find yourself in this predicament, ask yourself how much you want this particular deal. If, after some back and forth negotiation, you say, "Not too much," then you can walk away. If, on the other hand, you dearly want this deal because of future possibilities, then make the best deal you can within the tight parameters set out by the other side. Also if you can, make the term of the contract short with optional renewals, just in case things work out well and you want to continue the relationship. On top of this, in a fairly rare instance, Venus will go retrograde on March 6 until April 17. Venus governs love, beauty, fun, adornment - and profit. This is another reason I feel you need to be careful with any contract you sign. The profit you see in the end may be low for the entire duration of that contract's term. (Another reason to keep it short.) If you are not signing a contract, lease, or any other key document, and if you are not about to make a verbal agreement (considered the same thing in astrology), then you may simply travel and would enjoy the change. You may also have talks with a sister or brother about something this month, but again, if you need to do so, don't expect the communication with your sibling to be smooth. If you don't have an agenda, keep the conversation light. Don't bring up any hot subjects that you know always trigger an emotional response. That may not be possible this wild and crazy month, but see if you can avoid those subjects. If you do have important business or a serious subject to discuss with your sibling, try not to schedule those talks for the last week in March. I am concerned that your sibling may coerce you into accepting a position that feels wrong or unfair to you. New moons can set up six months of conditions, so this situation may be in place at least that long. As I said, however, if you have nothing much to talk about with your sister or brother, this relationship will not become a problem for you. If you were born on or just after January 25 or within five days of this date, you will benefit most from this new moon, although you may feel pressure from someone to accept certain conditions he or she sets forth. Remember, if you find the deal distasteful, you can always leave. On the other hand, if you want the offer, you may be willing to put up with those conditions for a time if you expect a backend benefit from future contracts that this may lead you to. Now let's turn to your home, because Venus retrograde will have some bearing on plans you might have to make your space more inviting and attractive. If you are thinking about dressing up your home, with Venus retrograde, you might want to wait before buying any new furniture, rugs, or other decorative items. Venus is the natural ruler of your house of home, so wait until next month, after Venus goes direct (after April 17) to place orders. The danger is that if you buy things to give your space a facelift while Venus is retrograde, you are not likely to be pleased with your purchase, so it really is worth waiting. My favorite date for you to start to order major items for your home, including furniture, rugs, appliances, and other expensive accessories, would be just after the new moon in your house of home, April 24-30. In the meantime, you can begin doing research on the things you want to buy this month so that you are ready to order on that new moon in April. It's often the case that when Venus retrogrades, we change our mind about what we want, so be open to finding something that fits your needs even better! You will have to be ready to act that week, because Mercury, the planet of buying, selling, transportation, and commerce, will be retrograde from May 7 to 31. If you are organized, you can tiptoe between all these retrograde dates and time your actions perfectly. Romantically, having Jupiter in your sign is a huge advantage for you. Your charisma will be irresistible this whole year, and if you are single, you will likely find your one true love in 2009. You have one of the most powerful matchmaking planets on your side - Jupiter. Venus retrograde is simply delaying things. With planets a bit scrambled this month, and so much emphasis on money, you may not be quite in the mood to socialize. Venus retrograde is not the time to give big parties or get engaged or married. It is also not the time to spend a great deal of money on designer clothes or jewelry. Don't schedule a radical change to your looks by having a new hairstyle, for example. Plastic surgery would not be advised either, of course. My goodness, Venus retrograde would be the worst time to schedule plastic surgery, but it would be even worse now, with Venus in Aries. Aries rules the face and head! No plastic surgery! What CAN you do? Have fun in simple ways, dear Aquarius. Venus will retrograde in a travel house for you, so you might want to take a little trip to a nearby town to visit a place you love but haven't seen in years. Going back would bring forth a flood of happy memories. Perhaps it is a place you went to when you were little and would like to show your spouse or someone you are dating. If you feel there is something you need to discuss with your partner because you have an issue that was never resolved, the house so lit up for you rules communication, so broach that subject again. You'll have from March 6 to April 17 to do so. You might want to talk while you both are away from home, away from everyday cares. Perhaps you could bring it up while taking a hike together in the beautiful woods, or while having dinner in a little cozy restaurant in the country. If the topic is money, however, avoid bringing up that particular topic anytime near the full moon, March 10. Go slowly and gently, and you may see a surprisingly happy breakthrough. Summary There is no doubt that this month brings a lot of financial discussions and decisions to the table. The topics you will be forced to settle seem to have been going on for a long time. When Saturn opposes the Sun on March 8, you may feel depressed or overwhelmed with money you owe others, or about money you expected but that will not be forthcoming for a while. You may have to make backup plans if this will throw your financials into a spanner. The matter will come to a head at the full moon March 10, possibly plus four days. Clearly this episode will be fraught with emotion. With Saturn conjunct the Sun, you will be in realistic mode and very cognizant of your financial responsibilities. If you owe money, you will find a way to pay, even if it necessitates you setting up a payment plan with the creditor or government. If you are making a divorce settlement or hearing about an insurance claim, as two examples, the amount offered looks to be far less than you expected due to the tough angle of Saturn and Uranus. Walk away and cut your losses, dear Aquarius. This person may have cost you money, but he or she doesn't deserve your time or energy anymore. This full moon may also bring news from your doctor or dentist that you need a procedure. If so, move forward on it. Your house of transformation is brilliantly lit, and surgery is often the way we transform into a much healthier state. As an aside, this may be why you are focused on finances in March, perhaps to find out how much your health insurance policy will contribute to your operation. Keep your chin up - you can get through this newest round of financial challenges. You are no stranger to this type of unexpected news, but admittedly, you are growing weary of it. Your long-term outlook for earning money is actually excellent. In fact, this full moon episode seems to be more about your old life than the new one you are creating now. Often the life we have today is the one we had planned, or led, about 18 months ago. Don't be blue about any of this. The more carefully you've managed your money, the less the aspects this month will affect you. If you say, "Well, I haven't done a good enough job on that score," then I say, tomorrow is always a new day and you can wipe the slate clean and start again. You can make sure you don't go through anything like this again. Admittedly, this month there appears to be a surprise element to what happens that makes it hard to have planned for. The problem may, in part, stem from a partner, whom you are associated with in a business or romantic way. This person seems to have asked you to do much more than your share and you seem to be at your wit's end. It's alternatively possible that your partner may be a good person who is simply going through tough times and is unable to send the money owed. Remember not to pick up your final tax return from your accountant on or anywhere near this full moon March 10 if you are worried that you owe the government taxes. Wait until March 19, a good day, or better yet, the full moon April 9, plus or minus one day. You may sign off on a divorce settlement this month, hear news about an insurance settlement, or get the court's decision about an inheritance. You may be negotiating with the bank about a loan, mortgage, or refinancing plan, or asking your university for financial aid. Whatever happens, this month marks a final chapter to that financial question. Mars will force expenses up from March 14 to April 22. The extra expenses may be due to unexpected repairs, or other expenses that can't be helped. Knowing this, space out any important, large expenses that you know are coming up. At month's end, it might be fun to take a quick break by going out of town. Even a trip taken for business will bring welcome relief. Go just after the new moon appears, March 26-30. If you need to negotiate or sign a contract in the last week of March, be prepared to look over the fine print carefully. Someone powerful may attempt to force you to accept the conditions dictated in the contract, but those appear to be quite one-sided. If you don't like the terms and can't get them written in a more balanced way, walk away. If you need the deal, take it, but keep the term of that endeavor as short as possible. Venus will retrograde this month, from March 6 to April 17, bringing in a rather no-frills atmosphere. This will affect everyone of every sign, so you might as well focus on your agenda. It's not considered a favorable time to meet and fall in love. It's also not a time to get engaged, married, or to do things to improve your looks. Delay plastic surgery - the job of Venus is to beautify, and with Venus asleep at the switch, you may not like the results. Dear Aquarius, you have such an enormous advantage for romance - more than most any other sign! Years when Jupiter tours your sign are standout years. Rarely have had you had a better time to meet your one true love or to enjoy the love you have with someone. This month, with its strong emphasis on money, may not be the most romantic month, but you can enjoy simple pleasures and the months ahead will engender a better atmosphere for love. You will get a lot of financial matters settled this month, and the decisions and actions you take of now will help you build a more stable foundation the future. If you have to cut your losses, do - the person who is giving you grief is not worthy of anymore time. You are getting rid of the old cobwebs, dear Aquarius. You can take THAT to the bank! Dates to Note You'll be energetic and ready to roll up your sleeves and make big changes to your life: March 1-14. Try not to be overly depressed about money when Saturn opposes the Sun, a somber day: March 8. A very troublesome full moon will force a conversation and final decision about money: March 10, plus or minus four days.
