The month begins in soft and sensitive Pisces season, meaning everyone is neck-deep in a fantasy world of feelings. However, your March 2025 horoscope for each zodiac sign are also packed with trailblazing Aries energy that’ll fill our spirits with firepower. And that’s a good thing, because the astrology of March is filled to brim with powerful and path-shifting planetary movements that’ll help shape the course of things for months or years to come.
It all starts with Venus retrograde in Aries on March 1—a transit that’ll have the lover planet moving in reverse for for about six weeks. Prepare to dive deep into your relationships, beauty habits, and values in general, and let go of any concerns about what others may think of your preferences. On March 3, chatty planet Mercury enters Aries too, making everyone headstrong and hasty in how they think and communicate. Aries’ ambitious ruler Mars makes a lucky trine aspect to the sun on March 7, so this week is a fabulous time to to pursue whatever you’re passionate about.
Soon after the sun’s motivating alliance with Mars, it’ll align with down-to-business planet Saturn in Pisces on March 12, inspiring everyone to buckle down and commit to turning their creative visions into reality. This grounding and galvanizing energy is useful once the lunar eclipse in Virgo hits on March 14, as this highly-charged full moon forces you to use your intuition in addition to your intellect and be less critical of your mistakes. Cut yourself some slack—especially since Mercury retrograde kicks off the day after the eclipse, so mental energy is slowing down and miscommunications become much more prevalent.
The start of Aries season coincides with the spring equinox in the Northern hemisphere, and this special cosmic event occurs on March 20. Aries’ zealous and spirited energy boosts everyone’s desire to lead and blaze new trails, and the first week of the season is especially exciting. That’s because the sun in Aries immediately forms back-to-back cazimis, aligning with Venus on March 22 and Mercury on March 24. These alignments offer everyone an opportunity to tap in to some of the lessons they’ve learned since these two retrogrades began. Both Venus and Mercury will moonwalk back into Pisces on March 27 and 29, respectively, so the cazimis serve as the helpful check-in point before the retrograde vibes start to shift.
Venus retrograde begins on March 1, and Mercury retrograde begins on March 14—the same day as a total lunar eclipse in Virgo.
The month wraps up with a fiery bang, Aries-style, as a solar eclipse rises in this red-hot cardinal sign’s realm on March 29. This will be the last eclipse to take place in Aries for more than half a decade, so it’s giving you last push toward embracing the newfound independence that you’ve developed over the past couple years. The following day, intuitive planet Neptune makes a monumental move when it shifts from Pisces to Aries, switching signs for the first time since 2011 and kicking off a new rotation through the zodiac. While Neptune will briefly retrograde back into Pisces on October 22, this ingress indicates a fresh start for this illusive blue planet—one that will likely inspire us to take a much more active role in our spiritual practices and intuitive desires.
