March 2025 Astro Forecast

We’re finally here. The month that will change the course of our lives in a significant way. March’s trajectory-shifting portal is already wide open, but hard to “see” with all the chaos around us. You will likely not notice the important changes happening within you right away, but trust me, they are happening.

This is not a typical March, nor will it be the usual Equinox energy. It will feel more emotionally volatile as Pisces and Aries bring us endings and new beginnings in some major way. We have a Lunar Eclipse in Virgo (14th) opposing the Pisces stellium, and the final Aries eclipse (29th). Venus and Mercury retrogrades begin in Aries and back-up into Pisces. PHEW.

The turbulence of this month will make things feel unclear, murky and activating.
AND also, this month is an opportunity to cultivate resiliency by strengthening faith in self (and the divine), embracing patience, holding compassion for self and others, and leaning into hope.

We are being nudged to let go of control and stop fixating on details. We are growing our connection to Higher Consciousness, the realm of the unseen, and sharpening our spiritual tools because they are going to guide this part of our journey and help us along the way.

So as the energetic hurricane storms, find your quiet pond and swim in there, deep beneath the water, letting it drown out the external noise and keep you safe in your inner sanctuary. Emotional intelligence and intuition will be your guiding light this month.

Needless to say, this is not a month to make important decisions or major commitments. We are more likely to take rash action and be impulsive, even conflictual. Be sure to think things through carefully. The more self-aware you are about your impulses, triggers and emotions, the less likely you are to rush into things.

There are positive and harmonious planetary energies throughout the month to soften the edges of our experiences. It’s not all mayhem. The Venus and Mercury cazimis on the 22nd and 24th support aligned action despite the retrogrades. If there are good days this month to make an important decision or launch a new project this month, it would be then.

One of the biggest events of this year happens this month as Neptune ingresses into Aries after 14 years of being in Pisces! This is a huge energy shift as Neptune’s ethereal, spiritual (and illusory) energies take on a more bold, action-oriented and assertive nature in Aries. This is a spiritual warrior, authentic healer, creative visionary energy. Neptune is only in Aries until Oct 22, 2025 since its July retrograde moves it back into Pisces one last time until Jan 26, 2026. For now, we will be getting a 7-month taste of what’s to come for the longer haul from 2026 to 2038.
