March Horoscopes
OVERVIEW OF THE MONTH
-
The Lunar Eclipse at 12° Virgo on March 3 invites discernment and healing after February’s whirlwind of astrological activity. This lunation reminds us that service, not dominance, will define the next chapter. Health, ecology, and practical reform take the spotlight. The image for 12˚-13˚ Virgo is: a powerful statesman overcomes a state of political hysteria. It reflects our need to restore balance and order after surges of conflict, rapid change, and confusion. It’s a reminder for us to draw from our inner wisdom and rise into leadership.
The lunation chart features a Sun-Jupiter trine. Jupiter mediates the tension between our ambition and our emotional needs. It symbolizes the gifts we can receive if we’re open to relaxing into creative imagination. This lunation reminds us we do not have to resist change – we can glide through it, remaining open to the blessings we receive along the way.
-
The asteroid Pallas conjoins the Sun, sugggesting we have strategic insights to guide us through life’s challenges. It’s a reminder to understand the meaning of a warrior spirit. Sometimes, being a warrior means fighting; at other times, it means resistance. At other times, we activate our warrior instincts by being calculated in the pursuit of a greater good. In doing so, we can build bridges where none existed before.
Jupiter stations direct on March 10, renewing optimism and amplifying faith in the future. From here, the winds shift: momentum builds.
The middle of the month features a cluster of Mercury, Mars, and North Node conjunctions in Pisces, emphasizing inspiration and the ability to draw guidance from our spiritual sources and intuition before acting. Mars, conjunct the North Node on March 13, suggests we can take giant steps on our path to purpose, which is welcome news for anyone feeling confused about life’s direction or stuck.
On March 17, when Mercury meets the North Node, we realize we don’t have to see the path clearly—we can feel our way through. -
The New Moon at 28° ♓️ 27’ on March 18 closes the astrological year. The late-degree lunations form aspects to Uranus, and this one is a sextile, suggesting the potential to embrace the excitement of a new beginning. That shift could be as subtle as deciding to view your circumstances in a new way or starting a spiritual discipline. Do not discount mindset changes; they can be significant events in the spectrum of possibilities.
The lunation is like a symbolic threshold, allowing us to open the door to glimpse a new paradigm before crossing into it.
That process happens at the Spring Equinox on March 20, when the Sun enters Aries and life begins anew. Chiron conjunct Eris on March 19 adds raw power to this rebirth, exposing wounds around voice, personal power, and belonging. Our renewal opportunity comes through courageous participation in the world’s transformation.
