Scorpio, March 2018

What will Pisces and Aries season bring?

Welcome to Pisces season, Scorpio! As the Sun travels through this fellow Water sign, you’ll find yourself in a flirtatious mood, creatively inspired and excited to have fun with your friends. I love you, little scorpion, but you can be a little uptight at times—and Pisces season is just what you need in order to unwind a bit.

The month opens with plenty of excitement, thanks to a full moon in Earth sign Virgo. Full moons are emotional and exhausting, and they usually bring some drama, as they’re a time of culmination and letting go (which can mean shit hitting the fan, or goodbyes taking place). However, as you know well, letting go can also be a major relief.

And this is a beautiful full moon for letting go of baggage, especially concerning your friendships and social life. A creative project you’ve been excited about may also reach a crucial turning point. Virgo is a sign that’s associated with service; this is a good time to consider how you can help the world on a grand level: What are your hopes and dreams for society, and how can you help manifest them? Love-and-money planet Venus makes a harmonious connection with lucky planet Jupiter today, too, which will create a loving, helpful, and optimistic energy.

Jupiter is currently in your sign, and will remain there until November 8, 2018. This is great news for you—while it moves through your sign, you’ll be expanding your reach, chances to learn and travel will constantly be at your door, and you’ll go through an incredible growth spurt spiritually. On March 2, Mercury will connect with Jupiter, bringing good news your way. Even more good vibes and chances to find inner peace will follow when the Sun connects with Jupiter on March 13. Watch out for some amazing opportunities from faraway places during these days.

Pisces season is lots of fun for you; however, as more planets enter Fire sign Aries this month, you’ll find yourself stepping more in to boss mode and getting shit done. Both communication planet Mercury and sweet Venus will enter Aries on March 6, and Aries season will officially begin on March 20 when the sun enters the sign of the ram. Having all these planets in go-getter Aries will find you especially productive. If you’re looking for work or have some projects you’re excited about working on, the Aries vibes will be a major benefit. As much work as you’ll be doing, this is also a fantastic time to focus on self-care and your physical well being and to confront your bad habits. Treat yourself to a spa date after tackling your to-do list, or come up with other good rewards for your hard work.

You Scorpios have a fantastic talent for getting into complex, even codependent, relationships with people.

Daylight savings begins on March 11, a busy day, indeed: Mercury squares off with Saturn; your planetary ruler, Mars, connects with Uranus; and the Sun connects with your other planetary ruler, Pluto. Chatty Mercury’s clash with serious Saturn will find you facing obstacles around communication and planning, so watch out. That said, with both of your planetary rulers connecting with Uranus, the planet of surprise, and the Sun, which rules life and vitality, some excitement and much-needed shake ups are sure to arrive today, too.

There will be a new moon in Pisces on March 17, which will bring new beginnings in all sorts of wonderful parts of your life. New moons can be anxiety-inducing because there are so many unknowns in the air—but this is a rich, fertile time for you to focus on manifesting your dreams. Anything is possible. You’re at the start of a new cycle. This new moon is activating the sector of your chart that rules romance, fertility, creativity, and celebration—enjoy! Also on March 17, Mars enters Capricorn, which is a hugely powerful transit: Warrior Mars gets shit done when it’s in driven Earth sign Capricorn. Mars in Capricorn will ignite the communication sector of you chart, little scorpion, encouraging straightforward communication and making your mind extra sharp.

With that said, we do have a Mercury retrograde this month. It begins on March 22, in Aries, and will find you rescheduling plenty of plans. Watch out for miscommunications and delays, and save important meetings and decision-making for when next month, when Mercury goes direct (on April 15, to be exact). Aries energy has a tendency to act first and think later. You’re usually very strategic, but you’re so eager to accomplish things this month that you may bite off more than you can chew.

The full moon in Libra on March 31 will encourage you to slow down. Like I said, full moons are tiring, and this one will be especially important in terms of catching up on rest. Don’t overbook yourself. Aries season will find you hard at work; however, this full moon will ask you take a break. Make time to be alone. Find healthy ways to turn your brain off for a bit—practice meditation, spend time in nature, sleep in, watch good movies, read good books, and dance your worries away.

You Scorpios have a fantastic talent for getting into complex, even codependent, relationships with people, but this full moon is in the sign of balance and relationships, Libra. During this time, you need to focus on your relationship to yourself and, most importantly, give yourself a break.

This is a hugely powerful full moon to strengthen your psychic intuition under, and it’s also a powerful occasion for processing your emotions. Check in with a counselor and unburden yourself. You’re often attracted to dark, mysterious, and often dangerous things, Scorpio. While the Moon is in Libra, try to surround yourself with beauty. Read a story about justice being served. Connect with the element of air by journaling or talking with a friend.

Venus enters your Taurus, your opposite sign, on March 31, illuminating the partnership sector of your chart and bringing blessings to your relationships. Venus is very comfortable in sensual Earth sign Taurus. This is a powerful occasion for you to reconnect with your senses and your physical body—spend a day someone where you both disconnect from technology and see where it takes you. Good luck this month, Scorpio, and see you in April!
