If your imagination wanders from the to-do list into positive daydreaming about how you can uplift and inspire others, let it.

Taurus, Apr 22–May 21
The full moon on March 3, a total lunar eclipse in the zodiac’s most exacting sign, may well radar in on something you’ve been putting off. Whether that’s attending to lapsed resolutions, inefficient habits, unprocessed emotions or a mounting workload, this no-nonsense lunation delivers a much-needed wake-up call to get more efficiently organised. If issues around trust arise during this emotional month, don’t mistake distraction for disinterest – ask for clarity. Your ruling planet, Venus, aligning with healing Chiron, reminds you that loving yourself is both courageous and necessary.

Gemini, May 22–Jun 22
With Jupiter and Gemini’s ruling planet, Mercury, both retrograde in emotional water signs, undeniable feelings could bubble to the surface this month. If you need to debrief, have a private confab with someone you trust before saying something that can’t be unsaid. Mid-month’s energetic release of Jupiter moving forwards followed by Mercury in the last week of March, will bring relief, but keep in mind the lessons of recent retrogrades regarding the pitfalls of hasty decisions. Move ahead with a renewed resolve to slow down, ask questions and not act on assumptions.

Cancer, Jun 23–Jul 23
A potent alignment of the south node with the full moon eclipse on March 3 in the sign of cleansing and decluttering delivers a double dose of motivation to downsize physical belongings, detox emotional patterns and delete relational habits that just aren’t working. To say sayonara, thank you, bless and release. To consider Cancerian playwright Tom Stoppard’s advice and look on every exit as being an entrance to somewhere else. So, when Jupiter heads forward in Cancer around mid-March, you can revel in the serenity of a fresh space and streamlined systems.

Leo, Jul 24–Aug 23
If this month’s retrograde soundtrack features old narratives and unresolved questions playing on repeat, as much as you want to turn them off, let curiosity be your guide because there’s buried treasure to unpack in what circles back. Slow down. Don’t rush to formulate fixes or logic it through. Forget tough talks with others if you feel too raw. Take your creativity, imagination and questing heart and make them into art. When the last week of March draws the curtain on drama and Mercury’s back on track, recriminations will give way to reconciliations.

Virgo, Aug 24–Sep 23
Your annual Virgo full moon on March 3, a total lunar eclipse, calls for an unflinching life edit. Eclipses tend to highlight backstage issues that haven’t been dealt with, so you may have to address some longstanding habits like overextending yourself or focusing too much on flaws. Your planet mentor Mercury in a tender and vulnerable retreat phase suggests writing a stop-doing list, and nurturing your nerves with quiet time, long baths and nature walks. Use Mercury retrograde words like retire, reflect and reformulate until the quicksilver planet turns direct on March 20, which presses restart.

Libra, Sep 24–Oct 23
With your planetary muse, Venus, in her annual red-hot phase, chemistry can be instantaneous, and you might find yourself drawn towards a completely different direction than you intended. Love comes in new and experimental forms during this spirited cycle, which can stretch your limits in interesting ways. With Venus in the lead, this month is prime time to initiate a new look, though wait till Mercury turns direct on March 20 at the equinox, your special balancing time, before making major style renovations. Most alluring accessory this month? Confidence.

Scorpio, Oct 24–Nov 22
As the zodiac completes another cycle, this month invites you to step back from the world’s noise, starting perhaps by listening to Seamus O’Rourke’s gorgeous poem Rescued Time about what’s important in life. Around mid-March, if a rare Mars/north node conjunction pulls you towards something that seems to defy logic, this is a time to follow instinct rather than reason. So tune into clues from your inner compass. Insights, breakthroughs, revelations, epiphanies and new understandings are likely concerning your sense of where you belong. And what belongs to you.

Sagittarius Nov 23–Dec 21
There’s no getting around the fact that this is the zodiac’s most emotional month, and with your planet guide Jupiter in reactive mode, feelings you normally keep under wraps could erupt unexpectedly. If you’re feeling agitated, attempts to clear the air are most likely to succeed after March 20. When Jupiter is on the move again in late March enhances your magnetism; be mindful of making promises that might be hard to keep. Best use of this month’s cosmic climate? Intimate sharing, respectful disagreement, heartfelt conversations, artistic expression and forming supportive alliances.

Capricorn, Dec 22–Jan 20
With so many of this month’s planets in sensitive water signs, it’s essential to read the room’s shifting moods. To check in, to let people air their feelings and pause if you hit a wall, rather than forging ahead regardless. When the new moon on March 19 supports letting go of an old story, draining obligation or lingering attachment, take a break from rigid to-do lists. Let ideas flow freely and initiate a gentle letting go process by vision boarding or mind mapping a contemporary replacement for whatever has completed its service.

Aquarius, Jan 21–Feb 19
Paradoxical Aquarians are both fiercely independent and expansively interactive, more at home in the mental realm of ideas than the emotional currents of this touchy-feely month. Which does, however, brilliantly prime your curious minds to receive intuitive downloads. So, find a quiet spot to unplug and be surprised by what arrives when you give yourself time to listen. You want to improve the world, but if you’re overcommitted or spreading yourself too thin, tune into the March 19 lunar checkpoint for how best to start with your small corner of it

Pisces, Feb 20–Mar 20
This month’s magical start features the sun, Mercury, Mars and Venus in Pisces, and the impeccable energy of the full moon total eclipse on March 3 will be your call for a lifestyle makeover. Remove whatever’s past its use-by date and make room for what’s waiting to enter. Nothing overly complicated – a simple streamlining will pair best with the planetary movements underway. Yes, Mercury retrograde in your sign for the first three weeks could complicate communications, but by the Pisces new moon on March 19, you’ll be seeing old things with new eyes.
