March Transits and Monthly Overview

As we enter March, we enter eclipse season. If you’ve had your astrological ear to the ground, you’ll know that this month’s forecast has been high on many an astrologer’s watch list. Not only is Mars finally direct and surging ahead through Cancer, but eclipses herald the unpredictable.

March 14’s lunar eclipse in Virgo promises revelations around unsustainable energy investments. Confusing or heavy circumstances threaten to draw us into unhealthy coping mechanisms and emotional overwhelm complicates our ability to choose differently for ourselves. The universe will step in to force our fate.

Meanwhile, March 29’s Aries solar eclipse is the last in a series of Aries/Libra eclipses that began in April 2023. Expect volatile culminations to feature, especially as this eclipse occurs just over 24 hours before idealistic Neptune enters Aries for the next seven months (a preview of its 14-year transit in the sign of the ram). March encourages us not to hold on too tightly to beliefs, plans, patterns or relationships that merit dissolution. It’s time to dream differently!
