As we enter a new month, the slate is wiped clean, and there are endless possibilities for growth. See what’s in store for your relationships, career, and emotions in the month ahead. Here’s your March horoscope for 2025.
Pisces, Feb 20–Mar 20
With the celestial trifecta of Sun, Saturn and Neptune in Pisces for most of March, you are this month’s undisputed star. Venus and Mercury in slow-mo in your money zone extend a valuable opportunity to address and reset financial affairs, during which it’s advisable to have your discernment filters on their strongest settings. The full moon on March 14 illuminating your partner sector offers a marvellous start to your new solar cycle with an invitation to let go of people-pleasing patterns and step into your own unique style of leadership.
Aries, Mar 21–Apr 21
Venus retrograde in your sign asks whether you know how lovable you are because the “galactic glamazon” wants to make sure you do. As Mercury reverses in Aries and this month’s full moon both pull you inward for reflection and correction of unkind self-talk, look for positive ways of morphing frustration and irritation into more user-friendly responses. And when the Aries new moon on March 29 connects with the sun in your fiery sign, take private time to tune into the magical download of celestial information heading your way.
Taurus, Apr 22–May 21
Your guiding planet, Venus, slows down every 18 months so we can recycle old stories into more contemporary, workable scripts. This month’s Venusian power outage – in its most no-nonsense, tell-it-like-it-is placement – issues a challenging reality check on relationships, personal, public and professional. While this is underway, be aware that any tendency to be too pushy or insistent in your approach may spark drama. On the other hand, the creative exercise of Taurean patience, which is your superpower, could produce some highly satisfying results.
Gemini, May 22–Jun 22
With Gemini’s astro-boss Mercury (information and communication influencer) in fast-forward mode this month, a signal-scrambling retrograde cycle could multiply misunderstandings, skew schedules, and bring people from the past back for another round. The good news? March supports pressing the pause button to rethink impulsive choices, perhaps via a daily meditation practice, even just taking a few moments to let thoughts settle. With Jupiter spending its last months in your sign for over another decade, this is an important time to nurture influential supporters.
Cancer, Jun 23–Jul 23
This month’s moon news features a full moon lunar eclipse on March 14, focusing its spotlight on your sector of health, routines and service. Use this clarifying energy to check how well your daily habits are supporting your overall well-being and to finesse the details of your life, from workflow to nutritional input to self-care practices. With ardent, assertive Mars energising your sign, motivation and drive are likely to be high, but tread gently around the potentially flammable and emotionally explosive new moon solar eclipse on March 29.
Leo, Jul 24–Aug 23
If people disappoint you, which can happen when Venus retrogrades in a touchy fellow fire sign, resist swooping into feelings of neglect or rejection by someone you’ve helped. Instead, use the opportunity to take an unblinking look at your past ways of dealing with similar situations, then dive into the compassionate understanding available this month. If you just want to withdraw and focus on the closest connections, that’s perfect. In mid-March, a full moon eclipse rocking your zone of money and values could bring clarity about moving forward – or not – with a shared financial venture.
Virgo, Aug 24–Sep 23
With your mentor planet, Mercury, in its most audacious and outrageous placement, communications this month can be visionary and innovative – although its retrograde phase is known to ignite fiery, dragonish rants calling for your best, flame-proof accessories. At the annual Virgo full moon on March 14 (a lunar eclipse), take time to celebrate your achievements, whether that’s streamlined systems, regular self-care regimes, service to others or nature’s enduring beauty. And perhaps persuade your persistent perfectionista into creative and enjoyable ways of managing responsibilities.
Libra, Sep 24–Oct 23
This month’s balancing act is a particularly intricate one for Librans: It’s to align the passionate push of Venus and Mercury’s creative fire with the zodiac’s season of feeling and healing. What is your best approach? Try sitting with uncomfortable emotions, teasing out your triggers and finding the most graceful way of expressing them. Your reward arrives with the full moon eclipse on March 29, bringing closure to a planetary theme at work since 2023 around self vs. relationships. This opens a new chapter of discovery, independence and prioritising your needs in ongoing collaborations.
Scorpio, Oct 24–Nov 22
Group dynamics may not be all you’d hoped for during this stop/start month of flux. But as windows of opportunity open, close, and reopen, seesawing between forward thrust and aggravating gridlock, your challenge is to move through mischief, mishaps and uncomfortable synchronicities to find whatever gold’s sparkling in the garbage. With Venus and Mercury digging into a feisty fire sign, it’s wise to avoid a dogmatic approach. The upside? The celestial force is with you to let go of old ways of doing things and try something radical, new and exciting.
Sagittarius Nov 23–Dec 21
This month’s conversations are direct and action-driven, so you’ll enjoy fast-paced exchanges with a diverse pool of people. Just be careful to thoroughly research any expansive plans before giving them the go-ahead. Another red flag: Both Venus and Mercury are reversed in your self-expression sector, which constitutes one of your premier foot-in-mouth transits, so best edit before uttering. Utilise this month’s opportunities to finesse your communication style from the verbal equivalent of blunt trauma to inspirational mouth music – something Sagittarians can do better than anyone.
Capricorn, Dec 22–Jan 20
Charging up your celestial sector of communication and community, this month sees you busy networking, info-gathering and trading ideas. But with Venus and Mercury retrograde in your foundational zone, don’t neglect your home, family and personal life. Is it necessary to set boundaries by declaring certain topics off-limits? The mid-month full moon in a compatible fellow earth sign supports programs dear to Capricorn hearts: Breaking projects into actionable steps, installing efficient systems, volunteering, organising digital spaces, refining meal routines and streamlining schedules to reduce stress.
Aquarius, Jan 21–Feb 19
The celestial energetics of March highlight your astrological sector of values and financial security, but don’t get too over-focused on the material world because unexpected astral magic is also at work. Venus and Mercury rogue in your connection zone suggest revisiting and resolving any issues in your friend circle. Eclipses tend to ignite turning points via sudden events necessitating a radical change of direction, and eclipses in mid and late March are likely to find you engaging with unexpected new offers and test-driving potential joint ventures.
