MONTH OF March
What’s next for you, Aquarius? Now that your birthday season is behind you, you’re ready to roll up your slouchy sweater sleeves and get down to business. Were you struck by a genius idea as you blew out those candles? Start building one of your birthday wishes into a tangible reality.
The March cosmic lineup goes from mild to wild, starting with three relatively chill weeks and closing out with the “spring fever” of a lunar eclipse. Use the first part of the month to get the nuts and bolts of your life tightened up, especially since Mercury will turn retrograde from April 1 to 25, scrambling signals. The more streamlined and organized you can be before then, the better.
With transformational Pluto back in your sign—and here for the next 20 years!—you’re moving into a whole new realm of leadership and autonomy, Aquarius. If you’re still adjusting to Pluto’s presence, no surprise. It’s as if an intense new person moved into your house and planted themselves on the couch, watching your every move. And while you sense their palpable power, you’re not used to being QUITE so exposed! (What the hell do they want from you anyway?)
Think of yourself as the Karate Kid and Pluto as Mr. Miagi, there to train you in spiritual self-discipline and show you how powerful you really are. Your transformation will happen gradually and almost imperceptibly at first, grasshopper, but it will indeed happen.
For now, just follow the clues that the universe scatters, the ones that call you into leadership, and to courageously speak your truth. When eclipse season begins at the end of this month, you’ll be handed the megaphone. And you won’t be shy about speaking into it!
Until March 19, take life at a methodical pace. The Sun is in Pisces and your grounded second house of money and daily routines. Build out a realistic plan for your projects. Focus on productivity by taking everything one careful step at a time. Crafting a budget or timeline might seem like a drag, but your path to success will be paved by simple and steady daily actions, not a wild, adrenaline-fueled burst that ends with a crash.
A great day to put your name in the hat for a job or promotion or to start building your ideas into concrete plans arrives on March 10. That day, the Pisces new moon—also a potent supermoon—opens up a six-month window to help you increase your earnings and establish yourself.
Efforts you start today will pay off between now and the September 17 Pisces full moon, which will be a powerful lunar eclipse. But there’s no need to wait that long! Start now and you’ll see compounding results within a couple weeks.
Just watch for a cosmic curveball the day before the new moon. That day, the skies erupt in a challenging 90-degree square between hotheaded Mars in Aquarius and your ruler, volatile Uranus, which is visiting your domestic zone. Tension could spike under your roof with a roommate or relative. Your efforts to carve out autonomous time and space could lead to unexpected aggravation and in-fighting.
Stand your ground, but be careful not to be selfish or combative since Mars-Uranus contacts can drive up aggression. If you’re inspired by the full moon to revamp your home, watch that you don’t get overly ambitious and create even more chaos. A meditation nook or desk area is easy enough. Constructing new closets, painting or putting up drywall? Maybe not the best idea right this minute.
Lightness returns after March 19, when the Sun kicks off a monthlong tour of Aries and your communicative third house. You’ve had your nose (mostly) to the grindstone, and now it’s time to reconnect with your people.
Your natural sales abilities are at their sharpest this time of year. Set up coffee dates and pitch meetings. RSVP “yes” to those after-work mingles where you can make new connections. Use this intellectually awakened time to brainstorm big projects or revive an abandoned hobby. Kindred spirits pop up everywhere, so watch your friends list and followers multiply as you share your colorful ideas. Ah, this is more like it!
And then…eclipse season arrives. The two-week corridor between the Libra lunar eclipse (March 25) and the Aries solar eclipse (April 8) could radically reshape your mindset, communication style and messaging. From how you market your ideas to the way you present your opinions to the people you call “community”: Everything is up for a major makeover now.
It all begins as the March 25 Libra full moon, a powerful lunar eclipse, delivers an exciting moment of expansion. Ready or not, your boldest ideas could attract the world’s attention. You could even get a major download of clarity about your highest purpose because this full moon will make a harmonious 120-degree trine to transformational Pluto in Aquarius. That leap of faith you’ve been putting off is calling for you! It’s time to make your impact.
With the illuminating eclipse in this outspoken part of your chart, you’ve got planetary permission to express your visionary ideas, no matter how “impossible” or outrageous they might seem. To your surprise, you could discover that a lot of people are eager to get on board, especially if your idea is connected to an important message or mission.
With Pluto in the equation, you may need to stare down some deep-seated fears and limiting beliefs. We understand, Aquarius. Going public with your convictions can be scary! Many of us carry past-life memories of being persecuted for our beliefs (even current-life ones, depending where you live). Freedom of speech and democracy are not guaranteed, even in places where we take them for granted.
One thing’s for sure: The lunar eclipse is calling you to think bigger. Pondering a vacation or a return to school, maybe a startup business? Nothing ventured, nothing gained! Travel, publishing, entrepreneurship and study are all on the agenda at this full moon. Cast a wide net and don’t limit yourself to one audience or region. Like-minded people await in unexpected places! When an eclipse comes knocking, resistance is futile.
While you’ll be answering the call, that doesn’t mean you have to rush in without asking questions or scoping out the scene. You want to step into the RIGHT opportunity, not just to say “yes” to any old offer. Make this your mantra, Aquarius: I am not desperate! With mindful Mercury turning retrograde from April 1 to 25, you’ll want to ask lots of questions and do your homework. Research every option and get ready for the eclipses to present ones you hadn’t even thought about. Your main job now? Be a great listener. Keep your mind, heart, ears and eyes wide open, even if that means things might take a little longer than expected to play out.
Don’t fence me in! At least…not just yet. March begins with both the love planets in YOUR sign, sparking your independent spirit. Since right around Valentine’s Day, Venus and Mars have been gallivanting through Aquarius. You’re remembering what a catch you are, and likely, a few fans are letting you know that they agree. As fun as the attention you’re attracting can be, there’s also a restless energy afoot. Venus and Mars in your sign are making you hard to pin down now!
As the month progresses, Venus and Mars will shift into Pisces and your stabilizing second house. Now you’re whistling a different tune, one that wants quality over quantity and certainty over adventure. Charming Venus enters Pisces from March 11 to April 5, and lusty Mars arrives on March 22, staying until April 30. Spring trend alert: Security is sexy!
Your sign can be whimsical and commitment-averse, so this cosmic turn is balancing and grounding for love. Coupled Aquarians should focus a little less on all the unexplored possibilities and instead enjoy what you have right now, in this moment. Since the second house is associated with self-worth, both single and attached Water Bearers will get a little cosmic reminder to have confidence in what you have to offer.
Financial and emotional stability are major turn-ons now. But be warned: With combative Mars in the mix, money could also become a source of tension, especially if you have very different spending habits as a couple or the budget is tight. For single Aquarians, make sure you’re not slapping down your credit card just because you don’t want to sit through the awkward moment when your date doesn’t grab the bill.
When Venus meets up with sober Saturn on March 21, you may get a harsh reality check around the overlap of romance and finance. Authentic conversations about money are uncomfortable (talk about a romantic buzzkill!). But it’s worse if you silently resent your partner or feel taken advantage of later. Summon the courage to be adults about this and get on the same fiscal page. And make it fun! For example, you can reward yourselves with a special treat, like a decadent date or a bucket-list vacation, by each putting a little bit into a fund every week.
Your energy and drive are back with a vengeance this month, and it feels great! For this you can thank motivator Mars, is blazing through Aquarius from February 16 until March 22, turning the power back on.
With the Sun in Pisces and your productive, profitable second house until March 19, and a supportive new moon in Pisces on March 10, money matters are on the upswing. You’ll certainly be focused on improving your bottom line and trying smarter ways to spend, save and budget.
When Mars moves into Pisces from March 22 to April 30, you could feel equal parts motivation and stress around your finances. Necessity is the mother of invention, Aquarius. Let this phase embolden you to make a courageous move!
On March 25, the Libra lunar eclipse beams into your expansive ninth house. This supercharged full moon brings a visionary moment, possibly with an invitation to travel, teach or write about what you know. An entrepreneurial opportunity could spark up out of the blue. Keep an open mind and explore opportunities.
But do your research for a month, since Mercury will turn retrograde from April 1 to 25, which could give you second thoughts or cold feet about something you’re initially excited about. Give yourself that extra time to ponder your options and explore new ones.
