March Astrological Forecast
Spring is upon us, and the stars and planets shift in magical ways. As we crawl out of the cold and into the Sun, your March Astrological Forecast is illuminating new possibilities and adventures of the most spiritual sort!
Sun in Pisces
February 18th - March 20th
March’s astrological forecast themes are woven with Pisces’ emotional, imaginative, and dreamy energy. Expect to have some of your best ideas come to mind. Though you may not actually produce or build out these ideas until April, be sure to write them down.
The Sun in Pisces shines a light on the 12th house–all things magical, mystical, the ending of cycles, spirituality, awakenings, and ascension. As fun and whimsical as Pisces season can be, there are emotional depths that will come to the surface over the next few weeks. You will feel called to pursue a spiritual practice, strengthen the relationship with your higher self, or even just start to see the deeper meaning in things.
March will also be filled with signs, symbols, and opportunities to manifest miracles. This is an exceptional month for you to open your heart to the divine possibilities.
Pisces season is especially perfect for falling in love. Embrace your vulnerability, and the Universe just might surprise you.
Sun in Pisces Sextile Uranus in Taurus
March 1st
When two planets sextile, they are in harmony, and their influence on you will be positive and subtle. In this case, the vitality of the Sun aligns with Uranus, the planet of rebellion and change. You’ll feel a nudge toward optimizing your routines. This energy invites you to leave a little room for play, too. Schedule in your creative time instead of leaving it up in the air.
Your inner child wants to have some fun, so you may find yourself playful in environments that are otherwise dull or uptight. This is a great way to break any built-up tension happening at home or the office.
New Moon in Pisces
March 2nd
The Sun and Moon will both be in Pisces on this day, making you extra sensitive–but in the best way. Your emotions feel full and safe. Write, draw, paint, or listen to music today as your heart dances to the tune of your human experience.
Be discerning with who you spend time with today. Careful not to be around people who put you in a particularly unpleasant mood. Whatever energy surrounds you today will feel amplified and more intense than usual. So even if this means spending time with yourself, keep your energy safe and be sure to be a positive influence on those around you, too.
Mercury in Aquarius Conjunct Saturn in Aquarius
March 2nd
When two planets conjunct, they energize each other multiplying the effects of the planets. In this case, Mercury the planet of communication, intellect, and reason conjuncts Saturn, the planet of ambition, structure, and discipline. This makes for a powerful day for you to set goals and optimize your habits.
Audit your life path and figure out what’s working and what’s not. Are your current efforts going toward the life you want or are you functioning on autopilot? It may be time to reroute your energy to a destination you dream of. Aquarius asks you to go against the grain. No more doing what you’re told. Do what you crave!
Mars in Capricorn Conjunct Pluto in Capricorn
March 3rd
Mars, the planet of passion and action, conspires with Pluto, the planet of transformation and power all in the strict and driven sign of Capricorn. You could be anticipating a career change or a major shift in your life. Even if this particular area is stable and predictable, you’re ready to shake things up.
You’ll take a realistic approach and measure your results before committing to something long-term. You seem inspired by and focused on details now more than ever. If you are planning something big, don’t let the practicality of it all rid you of the emotional experience. Change is exciting and can be celebrated.
Venus in Capricorn Conjunct Pluto in Capricorn
March 3rd
To add to the intensity of this day, Venus, the planet of pleasure and love, joins forces with Pluto. This can impact your personal relationships and finances in interesting ways. You may be tempted to cling to someone or possessions. Avoid fear-based decisions. Let the emotional tides smooth and allow details to fall into place before you take action.
Venus isn’t comfortable in Capricorn. So you may feel a little out of sorts. Things you once enjoyed suddenly feel dull and uninspiring. This is a good time to ask yourself if something is worth pursuing. You’ll have your answer by the end of the month.
Sun in Pisces Conjunct Jupiter in Pisces
March 5th
Finally, the mood lightens and the air is full of positivity and potential. Anything seems possible today as you feel confident enough to pursue something (or someone!) you’ve put off for a while now. Stay grounded and focused while following your heart. But never doubt that you are deserving of the things you want. Even if there are obstacles in your way.
Mars Enters Aquarius
March 5th
It’s time to take an unconventional approach to solve your problems. What was recommended doesn’t seem to cut it for you now. You feel especially erratic the next couple of weeks and let this be a warning to anyone who tries to stop you. You come off a little cold these days but it’s because you’ve exhausted yourself last month. It’s time to think about ways to refill your cup.
Venus Enters Aquarius
March 5th
Your friendships are front and center the next few weeks alongside your career ventures. While things at home and the romantic department run a little dry, the potential for success elsewhere is increased. Feed your soul by doing things you love! Aquarius energy is all about the people so find a place you can give back to your community or help a friend in need.
Venus in Aquarius Conjunct Mars in Aquarius
March 6th
Time to get out there! No more sitting around wishing you were somewhere else with someone else. This conjunct is giving you the energy to take action and get what you want. No more taking “no” for an answer. Venus is driving your heart while Mars gives you the practical ambition to see anything through. You’re unstoppable this month.
Mercury Enters Pisces
March 9th
For the rest of the month, your heart seems to have a mouth of its own. You can’t help but say what you feel. This may come at a price but there are opportunities to put your expressive needs to good use. Consider writing thank you notes or long emails sharing your feelings with those you appreciate in ways you haven’t in a while. And don’t hold back if you feel the urge to compliment a stranger. These little acts of kindness make the world a better place.
Sun in Pisces Conjunct Neptune in Pisces
March 13th
Neptune, the planet of intuition and dreams is lit up by the imaginative Sun in Pisces. Your head will be in the clouds this week and your mind weaves endless tales of possibilities. It can be a challenge to focus on real-world responsibilities if you don’t get a hold of your imagination. Practice journaling so you have a set time to let your imagination run as free as it needs to. Your best ideas are yet to be explored so don’t suppress your daydreams entirely.
Mercury in Pisces Sextile Uranus in Taurus
March 17th
You will have heightened intuition today as your psychic senses tingle. Look for signs, symbols, and downloads for the Universe. Expect keen insight or just a gut feeling about something you’ve been wondering about.
Full Moon in Virgo
March 18th
A full moon in Virgo is here to clear the way after a month full of daydreaming and traveling through the imagination. Virgo is here to help your ideas take flight or begin to plan something. The Full moon also invites you to organize your thoughts. This month can be mentally overstimulating for you so it’s best to take a break.
Full moon rituals are great practice for grounding and harnessing the Virgo energy. The full moon in Virgo invites practicality and reasonability to your wildest dreams. Together, you can unlock your potential for greatness. If you look closely, you’ll get some long-awaited confirmation on something very important to you.
Sun in Pisces Sextile Pluto in Capricorn
March 18th
A sextile among planets indicates the energies play off of each other and intertwine major themes. You will feel the pressure of this strong aspect for a few days. Like a planetary kick in the rear, you’ll become hyper-focused on wrapping something up and completing things you’ve been procrastinating. You wanted big changes, so it’s time to put the pedal to the metal and get things done.
Venus in Aquarius Square Uranus in Taurus
March 19th
There is tension in the air today and you’ll find yourself tiptoeing around your feelings. Anxiety and worries seem to flood your mind and it’s hard to pinpoint why. No need in tying a narrative around your emotions today. Just let them be and carry on as best as you can. Square planetary positions are brief albeit intense.
Sun enters Aries
March 20th
And that’s a wrap on the emotional and creative Pisces season as the Sun welcomes bold, ambitious, temperamental Aries season. You’ll have a little extra pep in your step and attitude in your mood as this fire sign lights you up.
Pisces season made you a pacifist but now you won’t tolerate any way getting in your way, distracting you, or trying to drink up any of your magical energy. You are a force to reckon with in the coming weeks and it’s best to put this passion behind something that will serve you in the long run.
Aries season indicates a new beginning for you, taking care of yourself better, and showing up to your life in ways you haven’t for some time. Your approach is brand new (in the best way) and everyone is noticing.
Spring Equinox
March 20th
It’s officially Spring and your time to blossom. Pursue anything at this time and it’s bound to flourish. You are well-equipped with ambition, optimism, and the willingness to try and learn something new. Your competitive nature is also surfacing. But remember it’s not you against anyone else besides who you used to be. This is the season of up-leveling your life. Embrace it and pursue it boldly.
Mars in Aquarius Square Uranus in Taurus
March 22nd
This brief but uncomfortable alignment may result in peaking tempers and chaotic emotions. Try to reel it in before you say something you don’t mean or do something you can’t take back. Rule your emotions before they rule you.
Remember, your anger can teach you something. But if you’re too fueled to fight you’ll miss out on the lesson.
Mercury in Pisces Sextile Pluto in Capricorn
March 26th
You’re seeking balance and becoming clear-minded. Time to get back on track as Capricorn reminds you of the goals you set out on a few weeks ago. If you’ve been off-track, now’s the time to refocus and recommit.
Mercury Enters Aries
March 27th
It will be wise for you to think fast and speak slow. For the next two weeks, the planet of communication, intellect, and travel will occupy fiery Aries alongside the Sun. This makes you a little more spontaneous and erratic than you’d like to be. Practice grounding exercising. It’s good to pursue things from a place of passion, but it should make sense with what you want and not just be an attempt to temporarily escape reality.
Venus in Aquarius Conjunct Saturn in Aquarius
March 28th
Finally, the flame in your relationship is rekindled. Experience a few weeks of passion to get your romantic affairs back on track. There is an opportunity for intimacy through stimulating conversations and doing activities you both love. This is also a good time to sort through your friend group as it becomes more clear who is really there for you and who isn’t.
New Moon in Aries
March 31st
Wrapping up your month is a charged New Moon in Aries. Today your opinions will be flying about left and right, just be sure to honor others’ boundaries and to maintain your own. It’s good to share your thoughts, but do so where they’re welcome.
On a more positive note, the New Moon in Aries brings an energetic fresh start to your pursuits. The inspiration that has been lacking will be renewed and you’re ready to pursue April goals with full gusto. The planets support your endeavors!

March Tarot Energy Reading
Queen of Cups + Page of Wands + The Moon
This month is calling forth your creative nature that has been tucked away. Perhaps you’ve not made time to be more expressive or you’ve subconsciously repressed your emotional and spiritual needs. This Tarot spread tells me you are ready to free the emotions and let them flow. They will lead you to passionate opportunities, deep healing, and the spiritual awakening you’ve been waiting for!
The Queen of Cups indicates powerful feminine energy that must be expressed. This means nurturing yourself and others by means of expression, sharing, and caretaking. This can also represent a passion project at its peak. If you’ve lacked fulfillment, it’s time to pour your heart into something you believe in.
The Page of Wands represents a free spirit, ideas, discovery, and inspiration. Act now and think later, the page of wands brings spunky, fiery energy to your month. This will be a source of action that supports your goals and helps your ideas take flight.
The Moon card is your subconscious mind, intuition, and hidden insecurities and fears. Sometimes it’s hard to believe that it’s even possible to achieve the things you want. But these doubts are projects from past events. Stay focused on the here and now. Choose faith over fear and accept that you are worth it and deserving.
