March’s Cosmic Shifts

While we’re still immersed in dreamy Piscean energy, March brings a dramatic shift. Venus and Mercury in retrograde, eclipse season, and Neptune’s move into Aries—after 14 years in Pisces—will all shape the month ahead. Multiple planets will be crossing the alpha and omega points, toggling between action-driven Aries and reflective Pisces.

Cosmic Lovers in Flux

Mars and Venus, the celestial lovers, are in tricky positions. Mars has recently gone direct but remains out of bounds (traveling outside the Sun’s elliptic path) and is still moody in Cancer. Meanwhile, Venus has just turned retrograde in fiery Aries.

These planetary movements impact how we assert ourselves (Mars) and how we attract what we desire (Venus). With Mars in nurturing yet defensive Cancer, emotions run high, and the urge to protect loved ones intensifies. However, the shadow side of this transit can bring emotional outbursts, particularly when insecurities surface. This energy spilled into global dynamics at the White House this past week with out-of-bounds behavior on full display.

Venus retracing her steps in Aries asks us to reassess what we value—both personally (Aries) and collectively (Pisces). On the world stage, expect power shifts as old alliances crumble and new partnerships form.

Mid-Month Surprises & a Fiery Finale

Mercury retrograde can create glitches and miscommunications, and with eclipse season overlapping the retrograde, unexpected twists will arise mid-month. As we approach the end of March, an intense wave of Aries energy surges forward, pushing us to take action.

A Celestial Reminder

This is a powerful time for self-reflection. How do you honor your worth? How do you attract what truly matters to you?

To reconnect with your inner light, step outside after sunset over the next few evenings and find Venus twinkling in the western sky. Soon, she will disappear into the metamorphic underworld before reemerging as a radiant morning star in April.

With Mercury also in retrograde, this is an opportunity to revisit the past with love—healing old wounds, releasing grudges, and preparing for a fresh start this spring.
