March Horoscope

 

March is a supercharged month. It holds some of the most significant transits that we will see in 2024 including Saturn’s shift into Pisces, Pluto’s shift into Aquarius, and Mars’ departure from Gemini where it has been since August last year.

You are given many opportunities this month to start afresh and rewrite your story. Over the next few weeks, you will feel a lot, heal a lot, and become aware of some of your greatest subconscious fears.

This is a powerful and potent time of change, and shouldn’t be wasted. Your energy is your greatest currency, so be intentional and disciplined with where you place your attention. Where attention goes, energy flows. Direct your energy into places of healing so that you can walk the path your higher self knows you are destined for.


Key Dates

2nd March - Venus + Jupiter conjunct in Aries.

The two most benefic planets meet up in the fiery sign of Aries. This transit can amplify feelings of love in your life, boost confidence within relationships, and attract prosperity and success to business ventures. It is also a good day to indulge in some self-care. 

8th March - Full Moon in Virgo

This is a beautiful moon for cleansing and healing. What in your life needs decluttering? Implement systems so that your physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual well-being is optimised.

8th March - Saturn in Pisces

Saturn is going to be in the sign of Pisces for the next 2.5 years. During this transit, you will learn a lot about your creative, spiritual, and energetic gifts. This transit will also demand that you implement boundaries with yourself and others, and create structure in your life. 

21st March - Autumn Equinox + Aries season begins

A great time to rebalance, realign and bring harmony to your life. Just as mother nature will be shedding leaves from her trees, think about what needs to be shed and let go of in your life.

22nd March - New Moon in Aries

This new moon is on the heels of the astrological new year at 1 degree of Aries, symbolising a beautiful new beginning. Be limitless and heart-centred in your intentions. 

24th March - Pluto in Aquarius

Just as Saturn moves out of this sign, Pluto moves in. Pluto and Saturn do not tread lightly so collectively we will continue to learn some harsh lessons particularly as it relates to scientific innovations, humanitarian rights, upholding equality, supporting the community, and respecting individual choices.

26th March - Mars in Cancer

Finally, Mars shifts out of Gemini, for the first time since August 2022. We are motivated to care for those we love the most. Watch for any passive-aggressive tendencies. Challenge yourself to move through the fear of being seen.

Aries

This month opens many doors for you. Fresh starts are possible at every corner. When Aries season begins, you’ll want to feel fresh as ever and you may shake up your personal appearance halfway through the month. When you look back at the end of the month, you’ll notice almost every area of your life has shifted and altered in some way. Who do you want to be throughout the process? Connect with the vision of your higher self and the qualities they embody. Remind yourself of those qualities daily through journalling, meditation, or repeating them as a mantra. The new moon is a great time to review your daily habits and routines. What rituals do you need in your day to thrive physically, mentally, and emotionally? Your earning potential is amplified and it’s a great time to clear out limiting money stories. The end of the month is a great time to connect with your feminine energy. Regardless of your gender, activate the part of you that is creative, wild, and free. It is a beautiful time to connect to females in general as well as reflect on your relationship with mother figures in your life. If there is healing that needs to be done, you are empowered to do so. 

Taurus

This month you are able to think creatively and critically. This places you at an advantage when obstacles arise. Instead of getting caught up in fear or frustration, trade expectations for acceptance and adopt a growth mindset so you can spot opportunities. The beginning of the month is all about paying attention to your physical body. What is it craving? Is it movement, rest, connection, warmth, or something else? Give the body what it needs. When you let it lead the way, your nervous system will be able to regulate and you’ll have greater access to your intuition. Listening to your intuition is important when it comes to your work and making an impact. Maybe there are certain projects you want to launch or messages you want to share with a wide group of people. Don’t discard your inner knowings, urges or intuitive hunches to redirect, share or hold back. You can impact a great number of people, but timing and delivery are everything. Your career and life goals have likely transformed a lot in the past 2-3 years. Get clear on what your goals are now. What are your top 3 priorities? Start embodying the qualities you need to reach these new heights. 

Gemini

This month, there is an abundance to learn. Your curiosity is at an all-time high and as the weeks go on, new understandings about your life direction and past experiences will unravel. There is a strong focus on your work and purpose. Tune into your intuition about how you can regain a sense of independence and security. Your needs are valid and worthy of expression. The new moon is a beautiful moment in time to declutter your home. Energy is everything and when it is flowing smoothly in your home, a good foundation is set for your life outside. So clear out old objects, bring in pieces that make you smile, move furniture around, light candles or incense, and incorporate elements of nature in your space. Do not underestimate how profoundly these small tweaks can alter the way you feel about yourself and your day ahead. As you tend to your home, tend to everything that exists in your private life. This includes the thoughts you have repeating daily. Are they serving you? What is a better, more loving thought? There is a higher mission that you are on and you need to remember how powerful your mind is in getting you there. 

Cancer

This month feels like being in the birth canal. There may be a sense of contraction or needing to work hard for what you desire. Adopt some grit and determination as you will be rewarded on the other side. There is a strong focus on life purpose and career trajectory. Clarify your goals. Acknowledge the parts of you that are afraid of being seen and stepping into roles of leadership. Perhaps consciously you desire these things, but there may be subconscious beliefs holding you back. Where is hiding from the world secretly benefiting you? Does it mean you don’t have to show all your cards? Does it mean you don’t have to face the possibility of failure? There can be a myriad of reasons and it is your task to explore what lives in your subconscious in order to transform it. The full moon is a time to cleanse and purge the old. Remove any clutter from your home, workspaces, and any other environment you frequent. Perhaps there are spaces in your community that need attention. The full moon is a wonderful time to speak your needs and create a clear line of communication between yourself and others. In the last week of the month, your energy will feel reinvigorated.

Leo

This month return to joy over and over. Write down a list of all the things that make you feel happy and alive and schedule those activities in your calendar this month. Whenever you feel low in energy or frustrated, simply call upon that list. Incorporate small easy tasks that make you smile because joy is your natural state and it is a choice to return there whenever you can. There are many opportunities this month to rewrite internal stories you have about taboo topics like sex, finance, politics, and religion. Maybe there are areas of life you avoid looking at out of fear. Drop deep inside and ask why? Start to build a relationship with some of the harder subjects and build a sense of confidence in those areas. There are blessings and fresh starts happening in your zone of foreign travel and learning. Where are you wanting to explore this year? New paths are unraveling for you and you simply need to set the intention and stay open. Your close relationships in business and romance are taking on a new meaning. Reflect on what you desire within these containers and set yourself some challenges so that you can really grow.

Virgo

This month (as always) you are driven towards perfection, but challenge yourself in every moment to see beauty in the whole picture. See the treasure and the learning opportunities in all of life’s imperfections. Your critical eye can be a gift when it is not directed toward your own character. The full moon is a time to release harsh judgemental thinking toward the self. You are beautiful, loveable, and deserving of all your dreams coming true. Set the intention to let go of all the mental chitter-chatter that prevents you from seeing this as so.  This month your intuition will guide you into the correct relationships. Do not connect with people based purely on what your head says is the right thing to do. Tune into your body and follow its wisdom. It can easily filter out who is and who is not a correct match. Every week there are lessons to be learned through your relationships. Listen for any subtle messages during conversations. There is guidance from above coming through. You like to have rhythm and structure In your day, and your daily routines have set you up to achieve greatness but this month is a good time to shake it up a bit. What would your higher self do every day?

Libra

This month is powerful for shifting the needle with your health and wellness routines as well as your daily work. Certain events may require you to reprioritise the structure of your day. What really matters to you? What direction do you want your life to head? Reflect on where you generally expend the most energy and whether you see and feel the results you desire. If you are not fully satisfied, experiment with something new. Start small and build from there. The full moon is a time to deep clean. While you may feel called to declutter your physical spaces, it is also important to declutter your mind. What stories and thoughts have you had playing on loop? Grab a journal and write down everything running through your mind, no matter how silly it may seem. The practice of letting it all sit on paper can help to release the heavy weight that has been held in your head. Now choose a mantra to repeat daily that will help generate thoughts that are empowering, loving, and kind. The last phase of the month brings fresh opportunities in your career and relationships. Are you holding back out of fear of being seen?  Be bold and brave. You have this one life. Live it fully!

Scorpio

This month is full of blessings. You must be observant enough to notice them arise. Choose to start each day with something that connects you to your heart. Maybe that is a deep breath, a walk in nature, or a sip of something with your eyes closed. Ultimately it is the intention behind what you do that makes all the difference. A lot of change is being triggered throughout March and you will feel that dynamism in your bones. You are naturally very sensitive to shifts in energy and your intuitive abilities are heightened right now. Use your intuition when it comes to creative projects and romantic connections. Who and what is worthy of your time? Do not expend energy on people or tasks that don’t add value to your life. You may find that miraculous physical healing occurs this month or at the very least you are able to make a fresh start with your health. There is something deep to be let go of in your family line. You may be the one who is chosen for such ancestral healing, or perhaps there is a group of you. What lives in the shadows in your family story that is ready to be acknowledged and cleared? You need to be brave as you set yourself on a path of freedom. 

Sagittarius

This month you must access your innate optimism. Choose lightness over darkness. See the silver linings in the cloudy skies. Funnel your energy into gratitude and growth. Perhaps you have felt challenged recently, or you have gone through some kind of initiation. The Universe will test your limits so that you can grow beyond them. Acknowledge the depths that you have traveled to. What about your character have you learned? What are you grateful for? How can you grow from this situation? This month stay open to lessons you may be learning about how to mother and care for your home, your land, and your family. There is a deep connection being made between your roots and all that has brought you to where you are today. The new moon is a time to streamline systems as it relates to your life’s work and career. It is also a time to ponder any fears arising around work. If there are limiting beliefs, the full moon is a lovely time to create a letting go ritual where you acknowledge those limiting beliefs and choose to set them free. Under the new moon set intentions around shining, creating, and birthing something new into the world.

Capricorn 

This month delivers clarity. If you have been sitting in some confusion or chaos, you can trust that answers will be revealed. Challenge yourself to be present with where you are without wanting the next thing. The future is bright but you must connect to and appreciate all that is good in your life right now.  Your sense of home is going through an overhaul. What do you need to feel safe and secure? What provides you with a sturdy foundation? Who feels like home to you? These are all questions to consider as you go through the month so that you can manifest a home that allows you to feel grounded and stable. It is only with a strong foundation that you can grow and shine in the world. The new moon is a great time to inquire about where the edges of your comfort zone exist. It is also a lovely time to connect with those living abroad and tend to any long-distance relationships you have. You can receive a lot of inspiration from outside sources. Over the past three years you have been busy. You have likely learned a lot about business and your own style of working. There are new lessons to be learned about your value in the world and how you can truly maximise your gifts.

Aquarius

This month is all about integrity. You are not often swayed by external sources but if you find yourself wavering on your path, or falling into patterns of self-doubt or comparison, remind yourself to stay true to your heart's desires, and be honest in all of your interactions. Remember, you are only competing with yourself and your authenticity is the greatest gift you have to offer the world. Your communication is important to consider this month. Whether you are communicating in person, through an online platform or even telepathically, notice if you are only revealing part of the picture. Be as direct and truthful as possible. The new moon is a great time to heal any limiting beliefs you have about intimacy and vulnerability. You are not the person you were a few years ago. Give yourself permission to let go of the old stories. This will help you as you enter new relationships. Any relationships you enter now will reveal new layers you have to shed. Be grateful for all the lessons your relationships offer. The end of the month is a great time to put in place systems that support your future self. What do you need in order to manifest your future dreams?

Pisces

This month is not without deep inner transformation. It is time to take full responsibility for your life. With great responsibility comes great power. When you own what is in front of you, you can create the changes that are necessary. You may be questioning your identity or your life path right now. This is purposeful. You are being presented with the opportunity to rewrite your story and do what is required to truly let yourself be seen in the world. There is an energy of limitlessness that you are able to access when you get quiet and ask deeper questions of yourself. The new moon is a beautiful moment to cleanse and heal stories you have about what it means to be in a relationship, to be in love, and to commit. Who and what do you have space for in your life? What will you no longer settle for? You may feel motivated to connect with people romantically but notice where you resist expressing your true emotions. There are fresh starts arising in the way you earn income. Commit to your vision for your dream job and do not downplay the value you have to offer the world. Implement new ways of thinking so that your mindset supports this next phase of your life.
