March 2023 Horoscope
The Month at a Glance
March 2:
Mercury enters Pisces at the start of March. It’s a good time to lean into your emotions, and don’t hold back how you’re feeling from others.
March 7:
March 7 is a big astrology day—not only is there a full moon in Virgo, but Saturn enters Pisces today, too. The full moon is a great opportunity to do some organizing, clean out your closet, and also plan ahead for the month.
Saturn has been hanging out in Aquarius since 2020, and now it enters Pisces for the first time since 1996. So everyone born between 1994 and 1996 is beginning their Saturn return now—may the odds be ever in your favor.
March 16:
Venus enters Taurus. As the ruler of Taurus, Venus is at home in this sign, and the vibes are luxurious and lazy (in a good way).
March 18:
Mercury moves into Aries. Mercury in Aries is a straight shooter and very direct, sometimes so much so that it comes off as blunt. Don’t be afraid to ask for what you want, but be sure to keep others’ feelings in mind.
March 20:
Happy Astrological New Year! The sun enters Aries today, which marks the start of a new zodiac year, since Aries is the first sign. This day is also the Spring Equinox, which means we’re inching closer and closer to longer, warmer days.
March 21:
There’s a new moon in Aries on the 21st. With the new moon and beginning of a new astrological year, you should definitely use this energy for a fresh start. Set your intentions for how you want the next year to go.
March 23:
Pluto enters Aquarius. This is a big deal because the planet has been in Capricorn since 2008. Pluto in this sign means societal change, innovations, technology, and new ways of doing things.
March 25:
Mars moves into Cancer on March 25, bringing a more caring energy to the end of March.
Aries
Pisces season is the perfect time for you to recharge. Prioritize self-care and work on de-stressing. Around the full moon in Virgo at the beginning of the month, try to get everything that’s been causing stress off your plate, whether it’s scheduling doctor’s appointments or running errands. If you’ve been looking for a sign to make some changes in your life, from cutting your hair to starting a new workout routine, the new moon in your sign on the 21st will give you the push to get it done.
Taurus
As a Taurus, you might normally prefer to spend nights chilling on your couch, but you’ll be feeling more social than usual during Pisces season. Your ruler Venus moves into your sign this month, too. Take advantage of this transit to do anything you need a little extra luck for, like applying to new jobs or asking out your crush. The new moon in Aries at the end of the month is a great time to create a new self-care routine for yourself—start going to therapy, set boundaries at work, or set aside days to just rest.
Gemini
You’ll be focused on your career during Pisces season, especially when Saturn, the planet of hard work, moves into the sign. You could be creating long term habits and buckling down to advance at your job. The full moon in Virgo will bring more emphasis to your home. You could be spending time with family or finalizing plans to move. Around the new moon toward the end of the month, you might be working closely with coworkers, or you could make a new friend at work. Social Geminis always have room for more friends, so reach out to someone at your job to get lunch or go to happy hour.
Cancer
With Pisces season and the full moon in Virgo at the beginning of the month, you might be making plans for or heading off on a spring break trip. This is also a good time to pick up a book you’ve had sitting on your shelf for a while, since you’ll feel more motivated to actually finish it. You might have the urge to write during this season, too, so try journaling or start working on that book you’ve been wanting to write. The new moon in Aries means a new start in your career, which could mean a job offer, a promotion, or additional responsibilities.
Leo
This month will be mainly about money matters for you. You could be working on taxes or searching for higher paying jobs. The full moon in Virgo could bring some additional money to your wallet, too. If you’ve been thinking of asking for a raise, try doing it during this time at the start of March. This is a good opportunity to get started on side projects that could be another stream of income, like searching for freelance jobs. At the end of the month around the full moon in Aries, you might feel inspired to learn new skills for your job, take a training course, or go to a conference.
Virgo
You’ll be starting March off on a positive note with the full moon in your sign, which might prompt you to get rid of old bad habits or purge stuff you don’t need from your home. The month also begins during Pisces season, which could make you feel more romantic than you usually do as a buttoned-up Virgo. You could be starting a new relationship or planning a special date night with your significant other. Pisces season is a great time for you to get in some quality time with your BFFs, too.
Libra
Use the energy of Pisces season to get your life in order—make all the calls you’ve been putting off, get all your laundry done, and rearrange your closets. Research new meals to inspire you to cook more often, and consider trying out a new workout class. You might feel like taking a break to rest and relax around the full moon in Virgo, but you’ll want to get right back to work afterwards. The new moon and Aries season at the end of the month will be more focused on relationships for you, so get all the boring stuff (i.e. errands and appointments) out of the way before then.
Scorpio
Have fun this Pisces season by getting back into that hobby you started ages ago, making plans with friends, or scheduling a few dates. The full moon in Virgo at the start of March is a great time for you to host some friends at your place for a dinner party or game night. Definitely enjoy this season as much as possible because when Aries season starts at the end of the month, you’ll shift from play mode to work mode.
Sagittarius
You’ll be more of a homebody during Pisces season, which might seem unusual to you as an outgoing Sag. You might feel like you finally need a break from all your socializing and traveling this month. Not only will you be spending more time at home, but you might also be more focused on work than having fun around the Virgo full moon. But don’t fret—you’ll be back to your normal extroverted ways when Aries season begins on March 20.
Capricorn
During Pisces season, you could have a lot of communications projects in the works. You might be presenting at work or school, or you may have more writing work than usual. You’ll likely be finishing up any writing or speaking work around the Virgo full moon, or use the Virgo moon energy to free up any writer’s block you’ve had. This Pisces season is also the ideal time for you to take a spontaneous weekend trip before Aries season begins, when you’ll spend more time at home. Or start planning a big vacation for later in the year.
Aquarius
As an Aquarius you always get excited to learn, but you’ll be especially interested in developing new skills during Pisces season. It’s a great time to pick up a new genre to read or sign up for a class in a subject you’re intrigued by. Be sure to highlight this new knowledge at work because at the beginning of the month around the full moon, you could start to earn money from a freelance job, get a raise, or receive a job offer with a higher salary. When Aries season begins, you’ll have more writing work, so consider learning some skills that can give you a leg up on that.
Pisces
March starts off during your season, so enjoy it while it’s here. Host a dinner party at your house, plan a girls’ night out, or hop back on dating apps to meet some new people. The full moon in Virgo on March 7 will be about relationships for you. Spend some extra time with your BFF or plan a fun activity for you and your significant other to do together. Then Aries season starts at the end of the month, and you’ll be more concerned with money and work during that time, so make the most of your season for the first part of the month.
