Pisces season and Pluto’s new era
Pisces (Feb. 19–March 20)
Happy Birthday, Pisces! You have a lot in store this month, so strap in for quite the ride. You’ve started the year with Venus and Jupiter in your sign and will continue to add to the batch with Neptune,your ruling planet, entering Pisces on Saturday, Feb. 18. Accomplishment and success are on your horizon! Use the New Moon in Pisces on Monday, Feb. 20 to get started on the things you want to achieve this month. Mercury’s transit into Pisces on Thursday, March 2 will bring an aid to communications and strengthen your intuition, but be careful when Saturn enters Pisces on Tuesday, March 7. This transit will bring shifting tides, for better or worse. Take care of yourself mentally and physically this month. Even good things can be overwhelming at times.
Aries (March 21–April 19)
The Sun will enter your 12th House of Secrets and Uncertainties on Wednesday, March 15, leaving you feeling lost and confused about your place in the universe, Aries. Mercury will join soon after on Thursday, March 16, making communication difficult to muster. This month will be difficult, but not at all impossible. Be open and honest with yourself and others. Tell the people you love that you love them and treat your body with the respect it deserves. Give gifts to future you. Good luck, champ.
Taurus (April 20–May 20)
It’s time to charge up, Taurus. Your ruling planet, Venus, will enter your 12th House of Secrets and Uncertainties on Sunday, March 12, making relationships and finances questionable at this time. This isn’t an inherently bad sign, though. Monetary benefits and new friends or loved ones may come out of the darkness to surprise you this month. When Mars enters your Second House of Wealth and Family on Monday, March 13, take time to remind yourself of your own inherent value and the family you’ve built for yourself. Your friends don’t hate you. You just need to go to sleep.
Gemini (May 21–June 21)
It’s a good work-month for you, Gemini. Your ruling planet, Mercury, will move into your Ninth House of Luck and Fortune on Monday, Feb. 27, bringing you clear signs of what lies ahead for the month. Keep your eyes and mind open to what others around you are saying and what topics become commonplace in your life. Mercury will then move into your 10th House of Work and Career on Thursday, March 16, making it a good time for job or internship interviews or asking for a little extra time on an assignment. Keep moving forward. You’ve got this!
Cancer (June 22–July 22)
Steady yourself for an increase in workload, Cancer. Use the New Moon in Pisces on Monday, Feb. 20 to prepare yourself for the month ahead. Venus — ruler of abundance in both love and wealth — will enter your 10th House of Work and Career on Sunday, March 12, marking a lucrative opportunity on the horizon. At the very least, you may gain a new work-bestie or find that a lot of tasks require your special touch for completion. Keep your head high and your worth in mind. You’re going to do amazing things.
Leo (July 23–Aug. 22)
Like Cancer, your fellow summer-baby, March is hinting at a lot of positive work for you, Leo. Your ruling planet, the Sun, will enter your 10th House of Work and Career on Wednesday, March 15, aligning you to the work you’ve been doing, or setting you up with a new project to excite you. However, be cautious of Mercury’s entrance into your Eighth House of Uncertainty and Transition on Thursday, March 16. Miscommunications and misunderstandings are especially likely to occur during this time, so take the extra time to really read through the job description before you apply. Maybe schedule some time for a mock interview or two. Good luck!
Virgo (Aug. 23–Sept. 22)
A full moon in your sign on Tuesday, March 7 sees a resolution to the struggles you’ve been facing. Take time for a breather and small celebration of how far you’ve come. Remember that progress is not linear, however, and your goals will continue to take work. Your ruling planet, Mercury, will enter your Seventh House of Marriage and Partnership on Thursday, March 16, bringing you close connection and much-needed understanding between loved ones and co-workers to help you stay on top of your goals. Maybe a coffee-study date is what you need to succeed.
Libra (Sept. 23–Oct. 23)
Love is in the air, Libra. Your ruling planet, Venus, will slowly transfer from your Sixth House of Health — which started on Wednesday, Feb. 15 — into your Seventh House of Marriage and Partnership on Sunday, March 12. Take extra time this month to look after your body and mind, nourishing both with good food and good thoughts. The resulting glow-up will carry you into an unexpected friendship or blossoming romance throughout the month of March. Don’t throw your heart to the wind too quickly, but keep your eyes open to those who show they care about you as much as you should care about you.
Scorpio (Oct. 24–Nov. 21)
You’re entering a new era, Scorpio. Your ruling planet, Pluto, has been in Capricorn since 2008 and is finally making an initial shift into Aquarius on Thursday, March 23. Change will take place on a global scale, with Aquarius’s ruling themes of politics, technology and communication being hit the hardest as Pluto retrogrades back and forth into Capricorn a few times before finally making its transition to Aquarius in late 2024. For now, prepare yourself for personal advances in your own relations to Aquarius’s central themes. Keep up with the news and put in the extra effort to stay in touch with the people who encourage you to be the best version of yourself you can be. Use the New Moon in fellow water-sign Pisces on Monday, March 20 to manifest and take steps towards building the future you want for yourself.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22–Dec. 21)
March brings a relatively balanced month for you, Sagittarius. Your ruling planet, Jupiter, is spending the start of 2023 in your Fourth House of Comforts and Luxury. Though it may be hard to see through your busy day-to-day, take some time to appreciate the comforts and gifts in your life. When Venus enters your Fifth House of Education on Sunday, March 12, be prepared for a heavy workload in your classes but also high praise for the work you’ve done so far. Mars’ entrance into your Seventh House of Marriage and Partnerships on Monday, March 13 cautions of heightened drive and emotions in your relationships, which could present as negative or positive depending on what predates it. Check in with yourself, and be kind to yourself and others.
Capricorn (Dec. 22–Jan. 19)
Your hard work is paying off, Capricorn! Your ruling planet, Saturn, entered your Second House of Wealth and Family back in January and will stay there for the remainder of the year. Though it may feel like your self-worth and identity are tied up back home, I promise you’re more than your past. Venus will enter your Fourth House of Comforts and Luxury on Sunday, March 12, bringing you a much needed reward for your hard work and dedication. The Sun and Mercury will then enter your Third House of communication on Wednesday, March 15 and Thursday, March 16, aiding in your efforts to understand others and to be better understood. Make yourself some tea, put on a good record and pick your journal back up again. Take care of yourself and keep up the grind!
Aquarius (Jan. 20–Feb. 18)
March is set to be a great month for you, Aquarius. Like Capricorn, your ruling planet will spend the majority of the year where it began. Neptune stays in your Ninth House of Luck and Fortune, shining intuition and light upon your months ahead. With Pluto entering your sign on Thursday, March 23, the world will feel as though it’s finally starting to align with your goals and visions. Though the Sun will be leaving your sign for Pisces, it will enter your Second House of Wealth and Family on Saturday, Feb. 18, only further helping you feel like you’re right where you’re supposed to be. Mars’ move into your Fifth House of Education on Monday, March 13 will help push you forward in your classes and help you stay on top of projects. Have an amazing start to your next year of life!
