Lunar Eclipse & Relationship Changes

Posted by Carisa Kissane on Tuesday, May 21, 2024

Welcome to a new month! With Pisces season underway, the March monthly horoscope for each zodiac sign kicks off in a mystical swirl of feelings and fantasies. Everyone will feel the magic, especially when the Pisces sun forms a sweet sextile to lucky Jupiter—Pisces’ traditional ruler—on March 1.

However, you should look out for volatility and mood swings around March 9, as high-octane Mars squares off with electrifying Uranus. Act with care! Communicative Mercury enters red-hot Aries that same night, which could make us extra feisty. Thankfully, a Pisces new moon rises the following day, bringing an opportunity to check in on your feelings and tackle emotions with more gentleness.

On March 11, romantic Venus joins the sun in Pisces, casting a gorgeously idealistic glow over our relationships for the remainder of the month. The sun links up with dreamy Neptune for the two planets’ annual conjunction later that week, making mid-March a beautiful time for daydreaming and creativity. Energy shifts in a big way on March 19, as the sun enters Aries—an ingress that marks the spring equinox as well as the astrological new year. New beginnings abound! With the sun and Mercury together in trailblazing Aries, we’re feeling revved up and ready to take initiative on our ideas. 

But don’t act too fast, as action planet Mars enters whimsical Pisces on March 22, pushing us to go with the flow when it comes to tackling goals. A few days later, energy comes to a cosmic climax, as eclipse season officially begins on March 25 with the lunar eclipse in Libra. This powerful full moon eclipse will help to cleanse us of any need to please others, leaving us with more space and energy to be true to ourselves. As you wrap up the month, focus on letting go of codependent habits and claiming your independence.
