3-9 March: Astrology of the Week Ahead

2nd March - Venus goes Retrograde

We have a Venus retrograde from 2nd March until 13th April. This is a time of deep reflection about our relationships, values, assets, confidence and self-worth. Don’t rush into new connections and instead reassess what truly matters to you. Old relationships—romantic or platonic—may resurface, offering a chance for closure or a second look at unfinished (emotional) business. Patterns around topics of love and self-esteem become more visible, allowing to break cycles that are no longer aligned with your highest good. Use this period to realign with your desires, re-assess what brings you joy, and ensure your relationships and choices reflect your true values. Patience is key—what’s meant for you will stand the test of time. Avoid spontaneous or irrational financial decisions or changing the way you look (i.e. cutting/coloring your hair, etc). Wait until this period is over.

3rd March - Mercury enters Aries

If you have been feeling overwhelmed, confused or foggy recently, the predominant Pisces placements might have been the reason for it. Luckily Mercury entering Aries today brigns a completely new energy to our mental processes, igniting quick thinking, bold speech, and a no-nonsense approach to communication. Ideas come fast, and so do the words—sometimes faster than our filters. This is a time for decisiveness, saying what you mean, and cutting through mental fog. Be mindful of impulsivity—while honesty is powerful, bluntness can sometimes burn bridges. Use this transit to embrace fresh perspectives, take action on long-standing ideas, and trust your instincts. Think fast, speak with confidence, and don’t be afraid to go after what you want.

5th March - Mercury sextile Pluto

Mercury sextile Pluto is a transit that brings sharp perception, deep conversations, and mental breakthroughs. It’s a day for uncovering truths—whether through research, honest dialogue, or sudden realizations that shift your perspective. Surface-level thinking won’t cut it; you’ll crave depth, meaning, and real answers. Use this energy to have the conversations that matter, tackle complex problems, or get to the root of an issue that’s been lingering. Words carry power now—choose them wisely, but don’t shy away from saying what needs to be said. It’s a perfect time for strategy and planning.

8th March - Sun trine Mars

Sun trine Mars brings a surge of energy, confidence, and motivation. This is a transit of action—things flow smoothly, and effort leads to results. It’s a great time to take initiative, push forward on goals, and trust your instincts. Physical vitality is high, making it easier to tackle challenges with determination. Willpower and drive come together, helping you move with being efficient and following your purpose. Use this transit to step up, and channel your energy into something productive. Just don’t waste it—momentum like this is meant to be used.
