March is here and with it is a brand new astrological year! We are currently in the depths of reflection on ourselves and previous decisions, maybe even feeling a little emotional about what was and wasn’t. And then bam! All of a sudden Aries season, and a brand new year, is here, eager to get going and to set our hearts (and maybe our lives) on fire. This month is for feeling, not for thinking. Letting ourselves feel sad when we need to and processing it. Acknowledging our fears so we can start to face them. Feeling the joy in our hearts so we can chase that feeling. So your mission this month? Notice it, feel it, enjoy it. You are a human, why not enjoy the full human experience? 

What to Expect This Month of March

Pisces Season is here, and things are getting deep. Mysterious, spiritual, emotional and compassionate, gentle Pisces energy flows into and around us. The final sign of the zodiac, Pisces represents all the wisdom we have accumulated from the last 12 months, all we have had to accept as out of our control, and what we have learnt about our role here on Earth in this life. This time of year is a gift, we have the chance to tap into our deepest emotions, heal our most painful wounds, open our most vulnerable selves and connect on the most basic level. And then, as dramatically as the last year did, the new astrological year arrives with fiery, dramatic Aries striding onto the stage. Suddenly we are reinvigorated, ready and able to conquer the next piece of our world. We go back to basics with Aries, we start from scratch in a lot of ways. Aries, the first sign of the zodiac, represents the first phase of life, the pioneer, the warrior. There is courage in being the first, for you are facing the unknown. Aries teaches us there is no growth without discomfort. Now it is time to be okay with not knowing, not overthinking everything, not staying still and not letting things keep us down. This is a dramatic, transformative, refreshing and astounding month. Are you ready for it?

Dates to be aware of begin with what is arguably the most abundant day of the year, the 2nd of March (going direct at 9.23 am) when Jupiter is Conjunct with venus. If you’re beginning new projects, relationships, mergers or financial decisions, this is the day to do it! The Virgo Full Moon on the 7th is perfect for reflecting on how you take care of your body, your daily life and your state of mind. Spend some time in nature and give yourself some physical nurturing. Saturn moves into Pisces, beginning a period of bringing dreams into reality and learning to cultivate inner calm on the 7th as well. The New Moon in Aries is on the 21st and promises to bring new beginnings and fresh energy that is passionate, inspired and exciting. Pluto moves out of Capricorn and into Pisces for the first time in many years on the 23rd, and we can expect our first glimpse of the massive regeneration this Pluto Season will bring. Mars finally moves out of Gemini on the 25th, and our motivation, concentration and action become less intellectual and scattered, and more emotional and nurturing.

Make the most of this energy by putting taking real steps toward your desires. Aries season begins on the 21st, but its power can be felt as early as the 19th, and a time of reflection, healing, release and solitude comes about. You may feel uncharacteristically impulsive, heated and flustered during this time as things you prefer to avoid come bubbling up.
