Overview for this Month: Aries (All)
March 2021 Monthly Horoscope Overview for Aries:
There are vital pointers to an inward turn in March, dear Aries, but it's a busy, communicative time nevertheless. The first three weeks of the month are not ideal for manifesting--you have a lot of inner "work" to do. New beginnings and taking concrete real-world action are unlikely to be very successful until you get yourself sorted, which involves reviewing and processing recent events, attitudes, life paths, and projects. By the 20-21, you are ready to turn over a new leaf as both the Sun and Venus move into Aries. It's a time for personal reinvention. Until then, preparations are in order.
This month, the major challenge to your need for extra rest and meditation is Mars in your solar third house, which can sometimes leave you feeling mentally wired. Your daily life, projects, and learning endeavors are compelling. Watch for alienating others through harsh words or speaking prematurely of matters that are better left alone for the time being, especially on the 22-23. Otherwise, your ruler, Mars, does exceedingly well, playing nicely with other planets, reinforcing you.
March begins quietly and picks up pace as it progresses. Don't be afraid to take the time to reflect and move a little more slowly, allowing yourself to catch up emotionally with recent events and circumstances.
With Mars in your communications zone from the 3rd, you are certainly not idle--you might often be meditating in motion. You can be passionate and ambitious about your projects, contacts, ideas, and studies. There can be a significant intellectual competition, or you're anxious to put ideas into action. You might feel impatient with idle chatter or with others' slower pace or minds so that finding ways to move at your own pace or work independently is vital.
This can be a big idea month, and it's quite excellent for reaching out to others, although part of you wants nothing more than to withdraw and replenish your energy. Dealing with errands, short trips, or mental busywork may be frequent. You learn best when you are teaching yourself or engaging in self-study.
You need something for yourself right now – as much as you like people, you have your limits! The inner entrepreneur can emerge this month. With the Sun and Venus in your privacy sector to the 20-21, and Mars in your communications sector, you may be giving off a "leave me alone" energy. While you do prize time to yourself now, it might be a good idea to let key people in your life know that it's not about them.
The New Moon on the 13th reminds you of the need to recharge before moving forward, but it also brings you a fresh start. You become aware of the need for more rest and perhaps some seclusion or special attention to your private life. A new cycle of rest and replenishment is upon you — a period of letting go, reviewing, and recharging your batteries, both spiritual and physical.
Circumstances are such that they force your attention to your spiritual needs and mental health. Aim to get in better touch with your dreams and spiritual heart and make extra room for time to yourself and healing activities. Releasing resentment and embracing compassion, particularly regarding past matters that still have a hold on you, can be helpful now.
Both the Sun and Venus emerge in your solar chart from the 20-21, and a personal new year begins, bringing you into the spotlight. People notice you and seek your company. This is a time for shining on a personal level, so take advantage. Your image improves, people love your sense of style, and a partner can be entirely on your side.
A Full Moon occurring in your partnership sector strongly influences the last week of the month. Feelings awaken, and they're insistent! This can be a time to connect with a significant other in beautiful ways or awaken to your relationship needs and goals.
It's also a powerful time for appeal and influence. You have more impact than usual on a personal level--your most charming and appealing traits are in the spotlight, and you impress others even more so than usual. There is a real demand for the qualities that you are naturally projecting. Your heart is open, and you are in a more amorous mood.
You're ready to put in some effort towards achieving goals, particularly those related to learning, communicating, and connecting. Others are very interested in what you say, and they may turn to you for sage advice. It's an excellent time to brush up on your knowledge and develop skills. Whether you're catching up or getting ahead of yourself, efforts to learn can be very successful.

Aries (Born March 21 to 31)
AND Aries Ascendant from 0 to 10 degrees Aries:
March 2021 Aries Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends
March 2021
The Sun this Month: Central Focus, Consciousness
Until March 19th:
The Sun continues to shine its light on your solar twelfth house. This is the time to listen to your intuition, to take a break from the hectic pace of your life, and to reflect on what you have learned in the past year. You might naturally retreat a little and take more private time for yourself now.
Your physical energy levels may not be up to par for the time being, and this is your body signaling you to take a break. This is not an ideal time for pushing forward with new personal projects and plans. It is better to finish up projects and tie up loose ends now.
From March 20th forward:
The Sun illuminates your first house now, bringing issues surrounding your personal identity, appearance, outward behavior, and self-expression to the forefront. This marks the peak of your physical solar cycle, and you are in the position to make an impression on others, and to assert your personal influence. Spontaneity of expression is what this transit is about. You are ready to put your past behind you and to start a new personal cycle. You have presence and you project confidence. Increased energy and a renewed feeling of confidence is with you now, so take advantage.
It's a great month to do something entirely new and pioneering—to go solo in some area of your life. This particular season of the year smiles on your personal endeavors. This is a time when you more easily get in touch with a true sense of your identity and purpose. The most enterprising side of your nature surfaces, and it's time to seize opportunities. Existing problems in your life may be overcome now by bravery and a straightforward approach to your life.
There's nothing wrong with a bit of self-centeredness during this cycle, but avoid taking it too far. It's not the best time for teamwork and other cooperative endeavors. The spotlight is on you and your ability to lead, so make it a good one! Take steps to improve how you come across to others. It's time to carve your own path in life.
Venus this Month: Love, Romance, Social Life, Comfort, Pleasure
Until March 20th:
Venus continues to transit through your solar twelfth house now. The twelfth house is a sector of endings, privacy, and mental health, and with Venus here, it's possible that you are reviewing your feelings for someone, or enjoying a more private love life for the time being. You may not be open with your affections for whatever reason now, and this shouldn't be a problem—it may be difficult to articulate, verbalize, or intellectualize your feelings for the time being. Doing some soul-searching as well as an enhanced ability to perceive other dimensions in love can lead you to a deeper understanding of your own love needs and possibly of a love relationship. Love might involve some form of sacrifice or simply a lot of giving and lending of support as opposed to receiving during this cycle.
From March 21st forward:
You could find it hard to deny yourself much of anything during this cycle! This is a time when you naturally let loose your softer, receptive side. Romantic matters, as well as pleasure-seeking activities, come to the fore now. You are more likely to pay closer attention to your physical appearance and mannerisms, aiming to improve and enhance your attractiveness. Others find you especially agreeable and cooperative. You are more gracious, well-behaved (superficial if you are not careful!), and likable now. Take advantage! It's a time when you turn heads, and it's also a period for extra attention to pleasures, pampering, and enjoyment.
Mercury this Month: Communications, Learning, Connections, Transportation
Until March 15th:
Mercury continues to journey through your solar eleventh house. This is a time when conversations with friends and various networking activities are much appreciated and offer learning experiences. Your ideas just now are especially progressive and unconventional, as you are questioning the rules you typically live by and entertaining some wild ideas.
Not all of these ideas are necessarily going to last or lead to new projects, but it's a time of dreaming up new possibilities and new possible solutions to problems. You are especially interested in spending time with people who are like-minded. Social interactions are more frequent, light, and fun during this cycle.
From March 16th forward:
Your mind is focused on private matters and past issues while Mercury transits the twelfth house of your solar chart. This is a time when you are least likely to speak out of turn or to express yourself freely. You're searching behind the curtain, and examining the past for answers.
This is a good time for research, quiet contemplation, and meditation; but do avoid getting dragged down by issues that have outgrown their worth and purpose. Examining the past in order to improve the future is certainly worthwhile, as long as you don't waste your energy on guilt. Creative endeavors could prosper now, particularly those that draw upon the emotions or that require creative visualization skills, such as poetry, art, acting, and other such activities.
You are likely to require a certain amount of solitude in order to get your thoughts together or to be mentally productive. You are less likely to chat indiscriminately during this transit, and tend to be a little secretive or tight-lipped for the time being. This may be important, in fact, because this position of Mercury is sometimes associated with the uncovering of secrets, so discretion may be in order.
Mars this Month: Energy, Drive, Courage
Until the 3rd:
Mars continues to energize your solar second house. You tend to put more effort into making money or making your life more comfortable and secure during this cycle. Your strong desire to be financially independent could lead to positive things, such as paying off debts or increased enterprise. The opposite side of the coin is asserting your independence by making impulsive purchases or taking risks with your money. You are more protective of the way you earn or spend money, as well as with the values you live your life by, and if others question you about these things, there could be arguments.
From the 4th onward:
Mars animates and energizes your solar third house during this period. You are likely to have many ideas and plans going during this transit, and you might be inclined to scatter your energies as a result.
Channelled well, however, this is a good time to sell your ideas to others, or to present your case in some manner. You may be especially busy running errands and communicating with others now.
More articulate than usual, you may also have a more assertive, self-centered, or provocative communication style at this time. As such, discussions might more readily become heated or they might escalate into arguments. If this is the case, it's likely because you are taking things very personally right now, or because you are over-identifying with your beliefs and ideas.
A tendency to be impatient or impulsive while driving or while performing manual tasks, generally with the hands, may lead to accidents, so it's wise to be careful on the road or while operating machinery or even using scissors! This is an excellent time for working on intellectual tasks with more vigor and passion.

Aries (Born April 1 to 10)
AND Aries Ascendant from 10 to 20 degrees Aries:
March 2021 Career, & General Trends
March 2021
The Sun this Month: Central Focus, Consciousness
All month:
The Sun travels through your twelfth house now, marking a time of retreat and regeneration. Think about the attachments you have--to things, people, and routines--and consider which ones are dragging you down. This is a time when competitive energies and the ego are on a bit of a break.
It's not the time to push ahead with brand new projects. Rather, it's a time of reflection, dreaming, and recharging your batteries. Situations that have naturally outgrown their usefulness in your life can now be put behind you. Endings of natural cycles may be part of the picture at this time of year. Your energy is largely applied to personal and private affairs now. Your disposition is introspective. Rest and reflect, and prepare for a more outgoing cycle when the Sun moves into your first house.
Venus this Month: Love, Romance, Social Life, Comfort
Until the 4th:
Venus continues to move through your solar eleventh house. This is a strong time for putting your ego aside and lowering your defenses and simply enjoying people. It's a good time for networking and settling disputes if there are differences to iron out with friends. Cooperation comes easily, and warm friendships can be made during this cycle. Personal freedom is especially important to you right now, and you won't enjoy any associations that limit you. It can also be a good time for earnings from business.
From March 5-29:
Venus is spending some time in "hibernation" in your privacy sector. Now, this doesn't necessarily mean that your love life is stagnant, but that your affection is expressed behind closed doors. Attraction to secrets and whispers characterize this period, although for some, it can also be a time of endings, relationship concerns, and wistfulness. Personal and social contacts may be secretive, and there can be secret love affairs, or at least very private love feelings and longings. Shyness can lead to some loneliness or romantic frustration. However, this can also be a deliciously private and intimate time.
From March 29th forward:
You could find it hard to deny yourself much of anything during this cycle! This is a time when you naturally let loose your softer, receptive side. Romantic matters, as well as pleasure-seeking activities, come to the fore now. You are more likely to pay closer attention to your physical appearance and mannerisms, aiming to improve and enhance your attractiveness. Others find you especially agreeable and cooperative. You are more gracious, well-behaved (superficial if you are not careful!), and likable now. Take advantage!

AND Aries Ascendant from 20 to 30 degrees Aries:
March 2021 Aries Horoscope: Love, Career, & General Trends
March 2021
The Sun this Month: Central Focus, Consciousness
Until March 10th:
The Sun continues to put a spotlight on your solar eleventh house. During this cycle, you are planting seeds for the future, dreaming up plans that you might begin to develop two months down the road, if they still seem viable then. You are more aware of the benefits of networking, and you might find some great ideas through others now. You might be working in a team now.
You could be questioning some of the rules you have been living by and you could be ready to try something totally new. You are more attracted to that which is progressive or unconventional during this cycle.
From March 11th forward:
The Sun travels through your twelfth house now, marking a time of retreat and regeneration. Think about the attachments you have--to things, people, and routines--and consider which ones are dragging you down. This is a time when competitive energies and the ego are on a bit of a break.

Mercury this Month: Communications, Learning, Connections, Transportation
Until March 7th:
Mercury continues to transit your solar tenth house. Career matters are busy at this time, and there can be plenty of thoughts and/or conversations about your profession, your reputation, or your social standing during this cycle. It's a good time to analyze your work tasks and to streamline them or improve your skills. There may be increased contact with the public now, or you might experience an increased need to be heard and acknowledged for your intelligence, skills, capabilities, and ideas.
From March 7-28:
Mercury is transiting your solar eleventh house. Your mind is bright, alert, and active during this cycle, and you have the ability to come up with unusual and inventive ideas. Sharing your thoughts with others is a prime interest. Others tend to particularly enjoy your conversations during this transit--you are willing to listen as well as add your own thoughts.
As well, your ability to grasp unusual subject matter and to intuitively understand what others are trying to say win you some brownie points! You could also do a lot of thinking and musing about your own happiness and long-term goals.
From March 29th forward:
Your mind is focused on private matters and past issues while Mercury transits the twelfth house of your solar chart. This is a time when you are least likely to speak out of turn or to express yourself freely. You're searching behind the curtain, and examining the past for answers.

This may be important, in fact, because this position of Mercury is sometimes associated with the uncovering of secrets, so discretion may be in order.
Mars this Month: Energy, Drive, Courage
All month:
Mars energizes your solar second house. You have more energy at your disposal to make money, but also to defend your values. This can be a very resourceful time, when you make the most of what you have. You have much energy for new money-making projects, or for stepping up existing ones.
You may be over-identifying with what you have and own, and you could be trying to prove yourself (your worth) to others using money and possessions as the means to do so. If conflicts occur during this transit, they are likely to be over issues of ownership. This is a time when impulse buying is at a peak. You probably should avoid using credit right now, simply because your spending habits may be excessive and impulsive.

By the 20-21, you are ready to turn over a new leaf as both the Sun and Venus move into Aries. It's a time for personal reinvention. Until then, preparations are in order.
This month, the major challenge to your need for extra rest and meditation is Mars in your solar third house, which can sometimes leave you feeling mentally wired. Your daily life, projects, and learning endeavors are compelling. Watch for alienating others through harsh words or speaking prematurely of matters that are better left alone for the time being, especially on the 22-23. Otherwise, your ruler, Mars, does exceedingly well, playing nicely with other planets, reinforcing you.
March begins quietly and picks up pace as it progresses. Don't be afraid to take the time to reflect and move a little more slowly, allowing yourself to catch up emotionally with recent events and circumstances.
With Mars in your communications zone from the 3rd, you are certainly not idle--you might often be meditating in motion. You can be passionate and ambitious about your projects, contacts, ideas, and studies. There can be a significant intellectual competition, or you're anxious to put ideas into action. You might feel impatient with idle chatter or with others' slower pace or minds so that finding ways to move at your own pace or work independently is vital.
This can be a big idea month, and it's quite excellent for reaching out to others, although part of you wants nothing more than to withdraw and replenish your energy. Dealing with errands, short trips, or mental busywork may be frequent. You learn best when you are teaching yourself or engaging in self-study.
You need something for yourself right now – as much as you like people, you have your limits! The inner entrepreneur can emerge this month. With the Sun and Venus in your privacy sector to the 20-21, and Mars in your communications sector, you may be giving off a "leave me alone" energy. While you do prize time to yourself now, it might be a good idea to let key people in your life know that it's not about them.
The New Moon on the 13th reminds you of the need to recharge before moving forward, but it also brings you a fresh start. You become aware of the need for more rest and perhaps some seclusion or special attention to your private life. A new cycle of rest and replenishment is upon you — a period of letting go, reviewing, and recharging your batteries, both spiritual and physical.
Circumstances are such that they force your attention to your spiritual needs and mental health. Aim to get in better touch with your dreams and spiritual heart and make extra room for time to yourself and healing activities. Releasing resentment and embracing compassion, particularly regarding past matters that still have a hold on you, can be helpful now.
Both the Sun and Venus emerge in your solar chart from the 20-21, and a personal new year begins, bringing you into the spotlight. People notice you and seek your company. This is a time for shining on a personal level, so take advantage. Your image improves, people love your sense of style, and a partner can be entirely on your side.
A Full Moon occurring in your partnership sector strongly influences the last week of the month. Feelings awaken, and they're insistent! This can be a time to connect with a significant other in beautiful ways or awaken to your relationship needs and goals.
It's also a powerful time for appeal and influence. You have more impact than usual on a personal level--your most charming and appealing traits are in the spotlight, and you impress others even more so than usual. There is a real demand for the qualities that you are naturally projecting. Your heart is open, and you are in a more amorous mood.
You're ready to put in some effort towards achieving goals, particularly those related to learning, communicating, and connecting. Others are very interested in what you say, and they may turn to you for sage advice. It's an excellent time to brush up on your knowledge and develop skills. Whether you're catching up or getting ahead of yourself, efforts to learn can be very successful.

About Our Monthly Horoscopes:
Our detailed monthly horoscopes are designed to reveal and interpret the current transits of the Sun, Mercury, Venus, and Mars in your solar chart. Because these energies or transits do not unfold neatly into any given calendar month (many transits carry forward from one month to the next), you will find some of the energies continue from the previous month. For example, the Sun might transit the fifth house of your solar chart from July 22 to August 22, so that you will find a similar interpretation for this transit in both July and August’s horoscope. This is normal and expected. While new months can hold new energy, transits don’t abruptly change because the calendar month changes.
These monthly horoscopes also include an overview paragraph, as well as other energies specific to the month, such as retrogrades, eclipses, or major outer planet transits.
The Highlights section reveals lunar cycle dates. Lunar cycles repeat themselves approximately every 28 days, so it is normal to see the same lunar peaks, such as “Your Personal New Moon” and “Monthly career peak” repeat themselves from month to month, but with different dates. They serve as a helpful guide to cycle peaks in different areas of life, such as financial, career, romance, and partnership.
The horoscopes are divided into three groups or decanates, and the differences between the groups are subtle in parts and large in other parts. For those who prefer a whole sign approach to horoscopes (classic), simply read the first decanate regardless of your birthdate.
