March's Cosmic Forecast: A New Dawn, A New Day, A New Life
March is a magical and astrologically packed month! The numerology of March is the number “3”, the number of creativity, mind-body-soul-connection, and the cycle of death and rebirth. March brings the energy of newness and abundance, making us excited about what's to come! We are stepping into the spring season, ready to see what the warmer months have in store for us. Pisces season starts us off, inspiring our spirituality and creative sectors! Pisces is a mutable water sign, this energy is represented by the ever flowing and moving twin fish. The two fish move in opposite directions representing the ever changing nature of this sign. Pisces energy cannot be boxed into any label or restriction. It’s time to embrace our full dynamism and multidimensional potential! Tap into all of your talents this astrological season. Remember that you were gifted these talents to shine, not to hide from others!
Pisces season pop culture: If you need inspiration for Pisces season think of the multitalented Rihanna or the ethereal Erykah Badu. Study their trajectory and the way they approach their crafts. Both offer many skills and talents to the world! They are unapologetic about their abilities and gifts.
The New Moon in Pisces on March 2nd offers us a new chapter and cycle! This New Moon is a good time to commit to our goals and take a leap of faith. We can begin new artistic and creative projects that require imagination and visualization. This New Moon is aligned with Jupiter in Pisces, making it especially empathetic, generous, and optimistic. All of our astrological bodies are moving direct, pushing us forward with a lot of momentum! Venus, Mars, and Pluto are conjuncting this New Moon, adding a creative spark to our new moon manifestations! Relationships and partnership can be at the forefront of our minds, asking for a fresh start and clean slate. We can begin to ask ourselves what we are truly seeking in our long term relationships and partnerships, and how we can cultivate more daily romance.
New Moon in Pisces pop culture: Think of this transit energy like Whitney Houston in Cinderella, arriving to make your biggest dreams come true! Anything is possible as long as you have faith in yourself and a higher power!
New Moon in Pisces: What dreams would I like to see become a reality this new moon? How can I fulfill my heart’s desires?
On March 6th, both Venus and Mars will move into Aquarius. Venus represents our planet of love and relationships while Mars represents our planet of action! Air sign Aquarius is connected to community, humanitarianism, and friendships. These transits are supportive to any community oriented work or missions you may be working on at this time. How can you give back to the world and be of support? This transit takes out the “me” and turns the focus to “we”. When it comes to partnerships, make sure that there is a strong foundation of friendship for you in your romantic life. You will be thinking more about the collective rather than your own needs during this time period!
Venus and Mars in Aquarius pop culture: Nothing gives Aquarius in Venus and Mars energy more than the career and life of Oprah Winfrey. Her focus has always been on community and giving voice to the unheard, while keeping her romantic partnership private and based in companionship!
Venus and Mars in Aquarius reflection: How can I strengthen the friendship dynamic in my romantic partnership? What humanitarian causes feel close to my heart right now?
On March 9th, the planet of communication enters dreamy and whimsical Pisces. Mercury in Pisces gives us a rose-colored glasses point of view of the world. We can feel creatively inspired and feel connected to our spiritual downloads in a very strong way. There’s an added level of mysticism and mystery with Pisces in Mercury! Remember that sometimes not everything is as it seems. Keep a dream journal during this time period, as astral work can be very important during this transit. Take what others say with a grain of salt and make sure to formulate your own opinions based on what you know. Sometimes Pisces energy can get lost in the dream rather than connecting to the reality of a situation. Use your intuition to guide you during this foggy and dreamy transit!
Mercury in Pisces pop culture: Luna Lovegood from Harry Potter. Not fully of this world, but always aware of the unseen, Luna taught us that there’s always more than what meets the eyes. Indulge in your fantastical mind during this transit!
Mercury in Pisces reflection: What are my astral travels communicating with me? How can I indulge in my creativity more during this transit?
Our revolutionary sign Aquarius enters the asteroid of Vesta. Vesta is connected to our fire within, our desires, and sexual energy. This asteroid entering Aquarius means we can become more experimental and open to what we want. This is a good transit to tap into what you’ve been suppressing when it comes to your sexuality. We can begin to connect our desires to our ideas about sacredness. It’s good to indulge in our physical body’s needs, especially when it empowers us and feels freeing. Variety is the spice of life, let this transit inspire you to be more explorative!
Vesta in Aquarius pop culture: Samantha Jones from SATC. From different ethnicities, to different ages and genders, Samantha never limited herself when it came to her sexual expression. She always was unapologetic about going after what (and who) she wanted. Be open to trying something new and unexpected, you never know what you can discover!
What makes me feel empowered within my physical body? What have I always wanted to try but never allowed myself to do?
Our moon, the ruler of our emotional and inner world, will enter mutable earth sign Virgo on March 18th! Virgo is our sign of connection to the material world, logic, and systems. This sign understands that with good daily practices, we are bound for success. This is a great time to clear your environment of clutter that is taking up too much space and energy. Focus on letting go of habits that don’t support your elevation and where you are heading. Prioritize what feels good to you over what is expected from you by others! This full moon wants to make sure you are approaching your sense of self with devoutness and commitment.
Full Moon in Virgo pop culture: Tidying Up with Marie Kondo. As Marie Kondo taught Netflix viewers, mess usually stems from deep emotional healing that needs to transpire. Organizing and cleaning up your life isn’t just a good habit, it is reflective of a deep and strong self love.
What excess can be removed from my life? How can I develop better and more supportive daily habits for myself?
March is all about the awakening of new opportunities and adventure! We can dust off the fog of the winter season to embrace the warmer and more uplifting energy of spring.
On March 20th, the Sun enters powerful and fiery Aries! Aries is the warrior of our signs, pushing forward in a strong and determined fashion. They never give up on their goals and always have a strong belief in themselves. We can feel like a flame has been lit from underneath us when the Sun enters Aries! Use this transit as motivation to go after what you want with no hesitancy. Now is the time to take action on what we have been planning and working towards during the last of the winter season!
Sun in Aries pop culture: Lady Gaga’s determination to be successful and unwillingness to be anyone but herself catapulted her to the top of the music industry! Model your energy after this diva in order to not lose faith in yourself or who you are. Those who get you will get you, and those who don’t will fall to the wayside.
How am I a leader in my life and to others? What makes me uniquely myself?
On the same day that we enter Aries Season, we will be celebrating the beautiful Spring Equinox on March 20th! This is a powerful time astrologically for us all. We are awakening to new ideas, fresh energy, and rebirth! We can reflect on what we have learned about ourselves over the last three months and what we are preparing to take action on in this new season. The Spring Equinox brings our manifestations and larger goals to life. Spring is the season of harmony and balance and this is the return of the equal day and night. You can channel the uplifting mood of this transit to help return to a place of inner joy and inspiration!
Spring Equinox pop culture: The opening scene of Sound of Music. Julie Andrews dancing and singing with joy in an open field is an iconic scene in cinema! Much like that memorable scene, the Spring Equinox is all about freedom and the open, abundant, and unknown terrain.
How can I restore balanced energetic flow to my life? What manifestations do I want to see come to life this spring?
The fire energy in our transits will continue to be amplified with Mercury moving into Aries on March 27th. When the planet of communication enters Aries, we can expect emotions and tempers to be at an all time high. We can be quick to anger and many of us can begin to operate from a “me first” mentality. It’s important to remember balance during this time, hearing everyone else’s perspectives rather than only our own. It’s a great time to advocate for ourselves, especially if we have been feeling suppressed or bottling our emotions. You can use this transit to release anger and make yourself take the lead in your life. It’s not the time to be a wallflower, but to stand out in a bold and fiery way. Aries understands that it deserves all that it wants and more in this life!
Mercury in Aries pop culture: Maddy Perez from Euphoria. Maddy Perez is the head diva in charge at East Highland High School. She’s fiery, passionate, and relentless when it comes to getting everything or anyone she wants! Her hotheaded nature is infamous, but deep down there’s a desperate need to be emotionally acknowledged and seen within her.
How can I better advocate for myself on a daily basis? Where does anger live in my emotional, physical, and spiritual body and how can I release it?
The last powerful transit of March occurs on March 28th with Neptune sextiling the North Node in Taurus! With North Node sextile Neptune, our imaginations take center stage. We can feel more sensitive and intuitive. Activities connected to the arts are highly encouraged as we connect to our creative and artistic natures. Occult work is also highly encouraged during this transit! Escapism is known with Neptune transits, so be careful when using tools such as substances to connect to guides and spirituality. Taurus energy asks us to keep our feet on the ground while Neptune explores the skies!
Neptune sextiles North Node in Taurus pop culture: Alice in Wonderland. The iconic animated film is said to be a story inspired by a psychedelic trip of Lewis Carroll. The fantastical element, otherworldly nature, and odd imagery experienced by lost Alice is similar to the energy of this Neptune sextile transit.
How can I awaken my creativity in a new way? What limitations have I created for my imagination?
March is all about the awakening of new opportunities and adventure! We can dust off the fog of the winter season to embrace the warmer and more uplifting energy of spring. As we move into this new season, we are being asked to put our money where our mouth is. Now is not the time to play shy or be scared! Our manifestations are awaiting us and are ready to come to life! Are you willing to step into the unknown for something that is greater than what you could have imagined? The heavy Pisces and Aries energy means we have the perfect opportunity to bring our dreams to life and stand in our truths. If you have been shying away from leadership, you will be forced to step up to the plate. Your creative talents and spiritual gifts are not curses, but blessings! Your unique vision and expression is important for the world to witness.
