March brings a new season and some significant planetary shifts. March 2 brings the powerful new moon in Pisces, which will align us with our emotions. Venus and Mars enter Aquarius on March 6, making our goals more attainable. Then, on March 9, Mercury enters Pisces and urges us to lean into our intuition to comprehend matters. Soon enough, on March 27, the Planet of Communication moves into Aries, ushering in a time when everyone will be assertive and direct. The full moon in Virgo occurs on March 18, asking us to be of service to others. And the month closes on a fun, high-energy note, as the Spring Equinox, Aries season, and the astrological New Year all commence on March 20 — a day to remember.
Aries
Letting go of preconceived notions about how things should be is going to be hard during the Pisces new moon. However, it’ll be worth it, because it will bring an awakening and inspiration to you that will shift your mind. The movement of Venus and Mars into Aquarius will give you food for thought and help you understand that you can dream the impossible dream — your manifestations may even come true, if you believe in them. Trusting the universe is hard for an action-oriented person like you, who likes to see results right away, but you’ll begin to have March 18’s full moon and the onset of your solar return on March 20 help you let go of the desire you have to control every aspect of your life, and find something like faith instead.

You’ll be thankful that you listened to your intuition by stepping outside the box and avoiding making the same old situations that you usually do. This time, you’re gambling on the greatest challenge and gift of all: your own goals (which were set in motion during March 2’s epic new moon and March 9’a Mercurial splash into Pisces). You will find that the leap of faith you took led you to a refreshing and wonderful win during March 18’s full moon, making you the most spirited cheerleader for the recent achievements that are under your belt.

Gemini
You’re considering an amazing career opportunity during the new moon on March 2. The only sentiment holding you back from reaching for the stars and going for the gold is fear. It’s not necessarily imposter syndrome, but you’re wanting to make sure of the right decisions when Mercury slides into Pisces on March 9. You may even have second thoughts during March 18’s full moon, as you’re deciding what you want to attain in your career. Don’t worry, all the hard work that you’ve done throughout the years isn’t for naught — you will rise above your insecurities and emotional setbacks by saying “yes” to the endeavor when Mercury lights the way in Aries on March 27… As long as it’s on your terms.

Cancer
The moment has come for you to step out of your comfort zone. It’s time to peel back the layers and ignite the flame within. With March 2’s new moon comes the chance to embrace your lesser-seen adventurous side. Thinking about traveling to Greece this spring, or taking a cross-country road trip this summer with your crew? The full moon on March 18 is the time to start making plans. That way, you can have something to fantasize about when doing mundane activities at work. Illustration by barbarianflower
Leo
The planetary ingresses of Venus and Mars into Aquarius on March 6 is bringing a major opportunity your way. Specifically, look out for a contract that might cement a professional deal. Before signing on the dotted line (and before Mercury moves into Pisces on March 9), have a friend or trusted colleague look over the terms, to ensure you’re getting your fair share of money, notoriety, and power. The full moon on March 18 is a great time to negotiate any loose ends that you’ve been ruminating over. When spring commences on March 20, you’ll feel lighter and freer as a result of having taken care of business earlier this month.Illustration by barbarianflower
Virgo
With the new moon and your planetary ruler, Mercury, moving into Pisces on March 2 and 9, respectively, you may find yourself being more codependent than ever. Lines and boundaries will be blurred at this time, since you aren’t good at saying “no” to friends, family, and partners who push the foundation of your relationship to the limit. Understand that you have the power to set the tone of the dynamic and future of these situations and connections by simply putting your foot down (after all, when is enough simply enough?). By the time the month is half over, you’ll feel assured knowing that no one is taking advantage of you anymore — a confidence that will be aided by the full moon on March 18, and the Sun and Mercury shifting into Aries on March 20 and 27, respectively.

Libra
Although you have sincere hopes of taking charge of your day-to-day activities and crushing it at work during March 2’s new moon in Pisces, the dreamy Neptunian haze may hold you back from having the energy or determination to take care of tasks and errands. When Venus and Mars enter Aquarius on March 6 in co-air sign Aquarius, you’ll want to kick back and relax — even if the anxiety of your to-do list and workload is piling up in your head. Don’t push yourself to the energetic max during March 18’s full moon in Virgo, as it’s a time of rest, not stress. Rest assured that the Spring Equinox on March 20 will bring you out of your seasonal hibernation to move you forward.

Scorpio
Dim the lights, light red candles for passion, and put on your favorite tunes by The Weeknd to set the mood. With the romance factor being in your favor, it’s high time for you to lean into these tender sentiments. The new moon in Pisces on March 2 brings a whole lotta excitement and pleasure to your life, and all the things that make loving extra fun. The caveat is that you can get too swept away by your emotions on March 6 and forget about the obligations you have with the outside world. The sweet escape won’t come crashing down anytime soon, which is why you should totally keep the champagne and good times flowing during March 18’s full moon in Virgo.

Sagittarius
The beginning days of March may make you feel blue and lonely — especially on March 2 when the new moon hits you where it hurts and ignites your fears (in this case, regarding not being popular or seen by your peers). Don’t let this vibe bring you totally down. A few weeks later, March 18’s full moon in Virgo and the Sun’s ingress into Aries on March 20 will help you restore your social footing, catapulting you into the spotlight like the star you are after a moment of reclusion. All of the solitary vibes that you’ve been under will dissipate at this time. When Mercury rolls into Aries on March 27, the negativity you felt will be a distant memory.

Capricorn
Your emails, DMs, and texts are at an all-time high, making it hard for you to respond to all of them. The issue is that you may fall a little behind on your work earlier this month, during March 2’s new moon, and March 6’s planetary switch of Venus and Mars into Aquarius. During these times, you may opt to hide under a rock rather than deal with reality. Luckily, the fog and ambiguity will begin to lift a little during March 18’s full moon. This lunation can help create the grounding energy that your earthy sign needs as you head into Aries season on March 20 — which will reignite the fire under your belly. Also, the drive to succeed in both social and professional endeavors.

Aquarius
The relationship that you have with money is beginning to change for the better. For a while, you haven’t been paying attention to the amount of cash in your bank, because you believe that you can always attract more. March 2’s new moon in Pisces and March 18’s full moon make you more cautious of your spending habits and cash flow. You may even start a budget on March 6, when Venus and Mars align with your Sun sign, with the hopes of having a cushion to spend during the upcoming rainy days of spring, which begins on March 20. Then, you won’t have to worry about your financial well-being, at least for a little while — so spend wisely and make good investments.

Pisces
With Pisces season in full swing until March 20, it’s time to embrace the “real” you. Milk the upcoming weeks for all they’re worth and turn the tides in your favor. March 2’s new moon offers a time to reconnect with yourself and understand your innermost desires. When Venus and Mars enter Aquarius on March 6, you may become extra sensitive and less confident. But you’ll be able to speak up (or at least find your voice) when Mercury aligns with your Sun on March 9. Rest assured that by the time the Spring Equinox commences with the onset of Aries season on March 20, you’ll be at a high. The proof will be on March 27, when Mercury enters sparky Aries, and you’ll find yourself ready to stand up for what you want.
