The March 2024 Astrology Forecast says, Buckle up! Hectic, frenetic, forward-ho, March is the last month this year with no retrograde planets. It’s all systems go – and by the month’s end, it’s going to GO!
And in some cases … gone.
March 2024 Astrology Forecast – Full Speed Ahead
Click the player below to listen to Astrologer Kathy Biehl discuss the March 2024 Astrology Forecast.
No matter how much February may have startled and stunned us, we don’t have the luxury of resting until our heads stop spinning. Instead, we’re continuing the process of adapting to changing conditions – and the more we do, the more we can capitalize on the forward focus.
The playing field for adapation, and some of the triggers, remain the same as in February, but the impact and ramifications are different.
Last month, Mercury, Mars, and Venus met Pluto, an agent of unavoidable change, at the doorway to Aquarius. The nearly back-to-back conjunctions dredged information up from hiding places (secrets, revelations, crimes, and more) and dramatically updated core components of daily life: how we think and speak, information channels, technology, vehicles, and modes of getting around; what motivates us, how we use our drive, energy and sexuality, and aggression; and relationships, socializing, creativity and values.
March 2024 Astrology Forecast – Mindful Breakthroughs
The same areas of life are now a lightning field of breakthroughs, breakouts, and breakups, which promise to shatter constricting situations and mindsets and free us up for movement. And maybe give us whiplash.
Networks, communities, mindsets, agendas, and more than last month zapped, ripped up, rewired, or brought into focus is up for further destabilization, knocking down, or leaving. You will be the instigator in some situations (watch for your chance and run with it); you will be freed, jettisoned, or simply affected in others.
The first wave of action comes from the inner planets interacting with the ruler of Aquarius, Uranus, an agent of radical, volatile, awakening change. The dance has a regular pattern: sudden change leading to opportunity, then sudden change leading to opportunity.
Relationships are up first when Venus squares Uranus on March 3, and demands change in a connection (sudden new one? Departing an existing one?), in loyalties, and tangible satisfaction of desire. Next comes rearranging thinking and messaging, which is not mandatory but probably beneficial.
When Mercury sextiles Uranus the next day, fresh perspectives, insights, and shocking but awakening messages are possible.
Something quickly has to give. Mars squares Uranus on March 9 with the force of pushing through a wall. Demands for money or physical satisfaction abound, insistent, intractable, possibly hot-headed, and probably unexpected – in timing or direction, but probably not the area. The aspects leading to this have been describing a trend.
March 2024 Astrology Forecast – Significant Changes in the Horizon
The aftermath offers personal awakening and liberation when the Sun sextiles Uranus the same day. (Since Mars and the Sun are dancing with Uranus almost simultaneously, the demand and the gift could come in one package).
The vibe immediately morphs away from the Aquarian emphasis of the past month and into a steamy mix. The first shift happens in our minds and conversations when Mercury moves into impulsive, impatient, energetic Aries on March 9.
Fiery, impassioned, excited, excitable – everyone’s speaking up, boldly and without thinking through – or caring about – consequences.
The first minutes of this vibe burn with focus and, take note, additional firepower. Mercury’s first act in Aries is a sextile to Pluto, which offers intensity as well as access to power, secrets, and factors lurking below the surface (including in psyches).
Steam soon wafts from the fires as softer energies pour in. The month’s jolts and lightning bolts blend with compassion and higher understanding at the Pisces New Moon on March 10, closely sextile to Uranus and widely conjunct with the sign’s ruler, Neptune. Wild creativity is within reach. Whatever you go into the Moon thinking you want, sudden inspiration may point you in an unexpected direction.
This Moon also ushers in a growing emphasis on Pisces. Venus enters the sign on March 11, coaxing out dreamers, mermaids, and Stevie Nicks wannabes. The social vibe inclines us to long for a little magic, poetry, and escapism and to see the best in others.
March 2024 Astrology Forecast – The Begining of a New Astrological Year
Softness peaks with the Sun’s conjunction with Neptune on March 17. Then the fires flare again at the equinox on March 19, when the Sun moves annually into Aries and sets the tone for the season.
As with Mercury 10 days earlier, the first order of business is a sextile to Pluto, inviting us to bring our sense of self in line with the changing conditions. Baggage dropping is in order.
We’re not tossing out everything, though, especially not the truly important pieces. Responsibilities to relationships and values loom large, and we have every incentive to behave maturely and seriously. Venus is conjoining Saturn on the 19th, bringing somberness and the impetus to make commitments.
Softness ramps up again with Mars entering Pisces on March 22. The cosmic first responder isn’t particularly comfortable in the vast sea of consciousness. The activity becomes sideways, backhanded, misdirected, behind the scenes, and possibly intuitively guided. Forceful moves have a way of coming back at you, much like when you push water in a tub.
His first days could bring a sweet stretch of life, thanks to a Venus/Jupiter sextile on March 24 that encourages indulging in creature comforts.
There’s bigger encouragement to indulge: the volatility of the Libra Full Moon lunar eclipse on March 25 (and pulsing more and more through our lives as it approaches). The Venus-ruled sign is relationship central, and this eclipse is working over that turf with game-changing revelations, high-drama departures, and major and major chapter endings. Her assistance from Jupiter is pumping up everyone’s feeling entitled to have what they desire, which will jettison many people and situations from your life.
March 2024 Astrology Forecast – Preparing for Transitions
No need to fear that, though. For one reason, relationships have been volatile and rearranging for the past year since the current eclipses in Aries/Libra began. The writing has been on the wall for whatever is emerging or departing because of this eclipse.
For another reason, you will yourself be heading for greener pastures. Some of which may present themselves out of the blue. Surprises are everywhere as the month ends. Venus is connecting again to Uranus on March 28, without shoving this time, in a sextile’s door and window opening.
It could be that demands of their March 3 square finally show up, with the catch that you’ll have to spy and seize them. Or that something arrives and quickly fills a space freed up by a breakup or departure. Or that a possibility shows up you had not even contemplated. Whatever the form may be, the metaphoric road not taken is the way to go.
Besides, you’ll soon have opportunities to check out the fine print and reconsider, much like the three-day cancellation period borrowers have to rethink and revoke a contract. Very soon. Mercury’s first retrograde is just ahead in April, bringing misunderstandings and confusion, and missing details for review. We are turning our sights every way but forward as we hurtle toward the second eclipse of the season.
