Your March 2026 Horoscopes

• Lunar Eclipse in Virgo (3/3): Letting go of an obligation
• New Moon in Pisces (3/18): Meditation class
• Other Key Dates: 3/2, 3/6, 3/7, 3/8, 3/13, 3/15, 3/21

The month begins in a flurry of appointments and obligations, which peaks at the lunar eclipse in Virgo on the 3rd. But by the end of March, you’re off the hook and, literally or figuratively, on an island. Your ruling planet, Mars, moves into Pisces and your unconscious sector on the 2nd, bringing your focus to work that needs to be done behind the scenes. There are some big bursts of energy for you too, especially around the 21st, but this momentum is better used closing things down than putting yourself out there.

Love Horoscope: Love and beauty planet Venus enters your sign on the 6th, and though you might not be going out as much, when you do, you’re feeling cute. This is definitely a time to let the potential suitors come to you rather than chasing anyone down. Cultivate a sense of mystery and see who’s intrigued.

Money Horoscope: If February was a month of overspending, you’re feeling the weight of that in March, especially on the 8th. Things may feel a bit wonky in the financial department until Venus returns to her home sign of Taurus (and your money sector) on the 30th. It’s a good month to embrace home-cooked meals and DIY.

• Lunar Eclipse in Virgo (3/3): Getting serious about a fling
• New Moon in Pisces (3/18): Happy hour with your new coworkers
• Other Key Dates: 3/4, 3/6, 3/7, 3/8, 3/10, 3/18, 3/30

March begins with you trying (and failing) to find a work-life balance. Exciting opportunities are being presented to you in all areas of life, but, for now, you have to choose one and forget the rest. With your ruling planet Venus spending most of the month in Aries and your unconscious sector, this month is less about making things happen, and more about reviewing the terms and conditions. Once Venus enters your sign on the 30th though, you’ll be back in your groove and ready to hit the ground running.

Love Horoscope: Romantic opportunities come through friends and coworkers this month. And if you’re taken, you might be bringing your partner around to more social events. This peaks from the 18th to the 21st, a time when you really feel like all of your relationships are being integrated.

Money Horoscope: Mercury retrograde tends to wreak havoc on your financial life, and this one is no different. If you’re starting a new job or contract, double check that you gave the right info for your direct deposit as it’s likely a check could get “lost in the mail.” After the 20th, you should be able to recover all those missing invoices.

• Lunar Eclipse in Virgo (3/3): Downsizing at home
• New Moon in Pisces (3/18): Embracing a new goal
• Other Key Dates: 3/7, 3/9, 3/15, 3/17, 3/20, 3/23

March begins with you making some necessary adjustments at work and in your professional life. After a hard-fought battle, you have the breathing room that you crave at the office, but that means your systems and routines also have to change. Reconfiguring things at work is also inspiring you to change things up at home. At the lunar eclipse in Virgo on the 3rd, you catch the decluttering bug, and end the month by hauling out bags of clothes to donate. Things are less chaotic after Mercury ends its retrograde on the 20th, but you’ll still need to take things slow.

Love Horoscope: If things have been slow in your romantic life since November, they’re about to pick up again as Jupiter ends its retrograde on the 10th. Around this time, you could reconnect with someone from the past and pick up right where you left off.

Money Horoscope: Similar to your love life, you’ll likely experience financial growth after Jupiter stations direct on the 10th. Whether you’re asking for a raise or selling your house, if you’re willing to trust an outside opinion, you may get more than you ask for.

• Lunar Eclipse in Virgo (3/3): Sibling drama
• New Moon in Pisces (3/18): First day of school
• Other Key Dates: 3/10, 3/11, 3/25

March begins with you rethinking your big dreams. While events of the last few years have taken the wind out of your sails more than once, you’re starting to feel inspired again. While Mercury is retrograde (through the 20th), you have the gift of some extra time and space to journal, travel or sign up for a class. The only major interruption during this expansive moment is some friend or sibling drama that comes up around the lunar eclipse in Virgo on the 3rd. 

Love Horoscope: What you need in your closest relationships is shifting this year. You used to need someone who could be your everything, and now you want someone who lets you be independent. If you’ve been missing your confidence in dating, you get your mojo back when Jupiter stations direct on the 10th.

Money Horoscope: Aries season (from the 20th) is always a great time for your finances. As you gain confidence in your resources, this is a great time to think about investments you can make to secure your future. These may not be the investments you would expect!

The growth you’ve experienced over the last year or so hasn’t been obvious to anyone, especially you. A lot of this growth has been behind the scenes. Around the lunar eclipse in Virgo on the 3rd, you summon the courage to make a big decision about your money. Moving forward, you may have to adjust commitments and let go of some obligations, all in service of simplifying your life. You’re building toward this summer when you’ll finally blossom again.

Love Horoscope: What you need in your closest relationships isn’t what you needed last year. In fact, it isn’t even what you needed a few months ago. You’re letting go of heaviness and expectations, and leaning into adventure and joy. Around the 25th, you could go official or deepen a connection with someone.

Money Horoscope: Mercury retrograde (through the 20th) always leads to a bit of financial chaos for you. During this one, you’re making some tough decisions around what’s yours to hold onto vs. what you have to give away. Consider who in your life builds you up, even when you’re super broke.

The lunar eclipse on the 3rd is in your sign, and for you, this is about letting go of an outdated view of yourself, or having a breakthrough around your mental or physical health. Though you’re feeling exhausted, your social and work calendars are full to the brim. You’re running so fast from one thing to the next that you don’t have much time to reflect. Things begin to calm down once Mercury retrograde ends on the 20th, but the order you crave may not return until mid-April.

Love Horoscope: Mercury retrograde has you rethinking your commitments, especially when it comes to love.

Now, in the midst of Mercury retrograde and eclipse season chaos, you’re finally integrating what you learned. The lunar eclipse in Virgo on the 3rd allows you to shed one more thing that’s been holding you back. Then on the 6th, your ruling planet Venus enters Aries and your partnership sector, ushering you into a spring of falling in love. Part of what will help you grow toward deeper connection is letting go of the things you can’t control. Are you ready to embrace the unknown?

Love Horoscope: Pay attention to the relationships that are entering and exiting your life this month. What fantasies are you falling into? What commitments are you making? These are especially clear around the 7th and 8th, and then again around the 22nd and 25th.

Mercury retrograde has you hitting up your exes and revisiting past creative projects. Not to cause a scene, but to make yourself feel alive again.

Love Horoscope: Sex and dating are a huge focus for you this month. But if you’re single, it’s probably not the time to settle down. You’re too busy to start a fresh relationship anyway. Once Venus moves into Taurus and your relationship sector on the 30th, you may start considering something serious.

Things are rapidly changing at home and you're juggling many moving parts. Phoning it in at work for a few weeks isn’t a cop out, it’s necessary for survival.

In the little spare time you have this month, clear some space in your home where you can relax and meditate.
