Key Findings for March 2021
March 2021 looks like a “secure the basics, then breathe” month. Health leads with 46.5% of tests, with Family close behind at 41.6%, suggesting wellbeing and close support systems were the headline priorities. The rest of the top tier clusters around stability and social glue: Trust (36.9%) and Peace (34.1%) signal a strong appetite for calm, reliability, and lower drama.
The biggest climbers are telling. Growth rises 3 positions into 9th while landing in 26.7% of tests, and Financial stability gains 2 positions to 5th at 33.2%—a classic “rebuild and level up” combo. Freedom (+1 position, 32.1%) edges up while Love holds 6th (33.2%), so autonomy and connection sit side by side. Pleasure is the month’s faller, down 3 positions to 8th (31.6%).
Overall, some values rise and others slip, a modest reordering rather than one fad. Seasonally, March often brings “fresh start” energy, which pairs neatly with the rise of Growth and future-proofing finances, while Peace holds steady in 4th.
