Daily Trends Calendar

Sunday, MARCH 1

The Taurus Moon continues until 2:21 PM EST and encourages us to enjoy ourselves and appreciate what we have going. There can be a slowing down and stabilizing of our feelings. Earthy activities and sensual pleasures appeal now more than usual, and we find a sense of peace and contentment with that which is familiar and reliable. The Moon transits Gemini from 2:21 PM forward. Misunderstandings can occur in the hour surrounding the Moon’s square to retrograde Mercury, as our feelings and words are a mismatch. Otherwise, the Gemini Moon is curious and light, encouraging us to diversify, put our feelers out, and pick up new ideas or tips. We’re more interactive and versatile.

The void Moon occurs from 10:53 AM EST, with the Moon’s last aspect before changing signs (a trine to Saturn), until the Moon enters Gemini at 2:21 PM EST.

Monday, MARCH 2

The Moon spends the day in the sign of Gemini, and we crave mental stimulation and a variety of interests and things to do or learn. We’re especially responsive and sensitive to what’s going on around us, and we’re more adaptive than usual. The First Quarter Moon occurs this afternoon when the Sun in Pisces forms a square with the Moon in Gemini. There is a crisis theme surrounding any quarter Moon phase, as we feel compelled to take action. Shortly after, we are made aware of how our actions affect those close to us, perhaps through trial and error. Whatever project or initiative that we began around the New Moon is now off the ground, and it may face its first obstacles. It can be a time of stress, clashing, and discord, but also of high energy, motivation, and growth.

Tuesday, MARCH 3

The Sun forms a semi-square to Saturn and Venus squares Saturn today, and we can be on guard or defensive with our affections. Fears are at the root of this. We could face challenges to self-expression. We may feel a little discouraged on a social level if we don’t receive the feedback we crave. Gaining what we want is challenging under this influence, possibly due to negative expectations or a tendency to need more than what is possible. Difficulties socializing can occur if we are a little more sensitive to rejection than usual. There may be a lesson or reality check when it comes to matters of the heart, or with finances. Responsibilities can weigh heavily on our minds. It’s best not to make major decisions with these transits, particularly with Mercury and Venus about to change signs. The Moon continues its transit of curious Gemini most of the day–until 11:26 PM EST when it enters Cancer.

The void Moon occurs from 9:20 PM EST, with the Moon’s last aspect before changing signs (a sextile to Venus), until the Moon enters Cancer at 11:26 PM EST.

Wednesday, MARCH 4

Mercury, still retrograde, returns to the sign of Aquarius today. While Mercury will remain retrograde only until the 9th, it will transit Aquarius until the 16th. Retrograde Mercury periods tend to send us looking to the past for further or previously hidden information. This is a time for uniquely innovative ideas.

Mercury forms a sextile to Venus today, just before Venus enters a new sign later today (Taurus). As it occurs in the last degrees of their respective signs, there may be too-quick judgments, statements, and decisions. Even so, it’s a good time to see an issue in a new light.

Venus enters the sign of Taurus tonight, where it will transit until April 3rd. Venus in Taurus is a comfortable transit as Venus performs well in the sign. During this cycle, we seek security more than usual, and we place more value on those things that last. In fact, our judgment of value and worth is enhanced during this cycle. Our appetite for pleasure is robust. The Moon spends the day in protective Cancer.

Thursday, MARCH 5

The Moon spends the day in Cancer. We seek out familiarity, safety, and quiet with the Cancer Moon. This transit encourages us to center ourselves and let go of overthinking. Home, family, and familiar settings or situations appeal more than usual now. We can feel some tension due to our drives to perform or the demands of our responsibilities. Events, people, and circumstances tend to pull us out of our comfort zone today with the Moon’s opposition to Jupiter and Pluto.

Friday, MARCH 6

The Moon continues its transit of Cancer only until 4:29 AM EST when it enters Leo. The Leo Moon is generous and trusting. We’re determined and confident, as well as direct and sincere under this influence. Mercury is heading toward a semi-square with Mars, and we can be quick to come up with ideas or retorts. We can be a little nervous and snappy under this influence. We may be working under stressful or hectic conditions if we allow ourselves to succumb to the pressure to get things done quickly. We may too easily interrupt others rather than listen, and conflicts of interest are likely. Even so, this aspect can also supply us with the gumption to make changes.

The void Moon occurs from 2:13 AM EST, with the Moon’s last aspect before changing signs (an opposition to Saturn), until the Moon enters Leo at 4:29 AM EST.

Saturday, MARCH 7

The Leo Moon is proud, decisive, and expressive. The Moon forms mostly quincunxes, however, suggesting some challenges integrating our emotional needs with our other drives or with people and circumstances around us today. We’re heading toward a Venus-Neptune semi-square, and this can reinforce a feeling of wanting something more than the ordinary. There is a tendency to gloss over problems or to see what we want to see, imagining the best or the worst when the truth is somewhere in between. We might have temporary doubts about our lovability and worth or about a relationship, pleasure, or comfort levels. Alternatively, we might go in the other direction and gloss over critical flaws and details.

Sunday, MARCH 8

The Sun’s yearly alignment with Neptune occurs today, and we’re extremely sensitive to the moods and undercurrents around us. We make judgments intuitively and instinctually. We may have a hard time defining our actions and our goals, and instead, we seek out alternate ways of connecting with our dreams. Our morals may be flexible as we tend to stretch our usual boundaries. This transit stimulates and enhances spiritual awareness.

Venus and Uranus also form an alignment today, and the need to express ourselves freely and openly is strong. This influence also encourages us to let go of rigidity. We’re itching for a change, whether we’re aware of this or not. Stimulation and newness are valued over permanence for the time being. We lose our fears of taking risks in love, with pleasure, and in social situations. There can be infatuations, whims, gossip, and unanticipated opportunities socially or financially. We have a greater need for self-expression and social excitement. The Moon continues its transit of Leo only until 6:48 AM EDT, after which the Moon transits Virgo.

The void Moon occurs from 4:13 AM EDT, with the Moon’s last aspect before changing signs (an opposition to Mercury), until the Moon enters Virgo at 6:48 AM EDT.

Monday, MARCH 9

The Full Moon occurs today in the sign of Virgo at 1:48 PM EDT. It’s a time of culmination, and the promise of fulfillment of something begun at the New Moon. We’re pressed to find a balance between day-to-day functions and routines, physical health, and the need for order (Virgo Moon) and vision, spiritual health, disorder, and the infinite (Sun in Pisces). This Full Moon urges us to strike a balance between work and service, practicality and impracticality, criticism and acceptance. Symbolic illumination occurs in our lives–we might reach epiphanies that lead to turning points.

Mercury stations and turns direct today after retrograde motion since February 16th. Over the coming weeks, recent problems with communications and decision-making should start to improve. The answers we’ve been waiting for can arrive. Plans or projects that have stalled might now resume. We can be flooded with energies that are hard to make sense of during the shift today, however, and thus critical decision-making might be avoided for the time being, as our thinking can be skewed temporarily. It’s a better day to take in than to take action. It’s also a good idea not to rush conversations and observations.

Tuesday, MARCH 10

The Moon continues its transit of Virgo until 6:04 AM EDT, after which the Moon is in Libra. The Libra Moon is cooperative, friendly, and gracious. We’re ready to meet each other halfway. We seek ways to blend, balance, and cooperate. A Sun-Jupiter sextile occurring tomorrow influences today and helps stimulate hopefulness and generosity. This is a time for engaging with others in happy ways and enjoying opportunities for connecting. Confidence comes from a stronger sense of who we are and the principles we represent.

The void Moon occurs from 4:33 AM EDT, with the Moon’s last aspect before changing signs (a trine to Saturn), until the Moon enters Libra at 6:04 AM EDT.

Wednesday, MARCH 11

The Sun forms a sextile to Jupiter today, and this influence can bring hopefulness, tolerance, and goodwill into our lives. We may get a “yes” or go-ahead for a project or gain cooperation from others. We can be especially sociable and generous under this influence. Some form of recognition or distinction is possible now. We can grasp the “big picture,” which expands our perspective. We’re likely to feel more vital and confident. Today’s Libra Moon is also friendly and hospitable. Still, with the Moon’s square to Mars, Jupiter, and Pluto, we can feel pressure to perform, and this can interfere with our relationships or state of balance at times today.

Thursday, MARCH 12

The Moon ends its transit of Libra at 5:29 AM EDT when it enters Scorpio. While the Moon is in Scorpio, we’re drawn to transformative and emotionally exciting experiences. We’re interested in discovering deeper truths and motives. With the Moon opposite Venus and Uranus, responses from others may not be satisfying at first glance. We could be cool with our affections or flippant, or when we seek something deeper, responses from others are unreliable or detached. It may not be the easiest day for self-control or consistency, but we can learn much through our interactions.

The void Moon occurs from 4:12 AM EDT, with the Moon’s last aspect before changing signs (a square to Saturn), until the Moon enters Scorpio at 5:29 AM EDT.

Friday, MARCH 13

The Moon transits Scorpio all day, harmonizing with Mars, Neptune, Jupiter, the Sun, and Pluto, facilitating emotional expression. We feel our emotions intensely, and we relish intensity. It’s a great time of the lunar month to research, investigate, and learn what makes us tick. We are excellent at formulating strategies to reach our goals today, and we thoroughly enjoy the process. We tend to keep things to ourselves until we’re completely satisfied with them, and we can be very resourceful.

We’re also approaching a Mars-Neptune sextile, exact tomorrow, which is gently inspiring and boosting. Creative arts thrive, and we actively seek inspiration. Our intuitive guidance can be put to practical use, especially if it helps increase our sense of security. There can be the letting go of anger, or a softening of the disposition now. We prefer to cooperate or go our own way than compete.

Saturday, MARCH 14

With Mars sextile Neptune this morning, we’re ready to act on our compassion. We’re communicating our intentions through our actions and gestures, and our intuition for making the right moves is strong.

The Sun forms a sextile to Pluto shortly after midday, and we seek a little more depth from our activities and connections. This influence subtly increases our ambition, determination, and dedication. We tend to direct our energy constructively and seek out new insight into our lives. We feel stronger and enjoy the empowered feeling that results from making changes and improvements. We’re more resourceful than usual, and we feel perfectly capable of overcoming obstacles and meeting challenges.

The Moon continues its transit of Scorpio until 7:10 AM EDT, after which the Moon is in Sagittarius.

The void Moon occurs from 6:06 AM EDT, with the Moon’s last aspect before changing signs (a sextile to Saturn), until the Moon enters Sagittarius at 7:10 AM EDT.

Sunday, MARCH 15

The Moon spends the day in brave Sagittarius, stimulating our need to break the routine and experience life more spontaneously. The Sagittarius Moon demands action, emotional refreshment, or a change of scenery. We’re eager to learn, experience, and explore, at least on an emotional level. We are not inclined to analyze or question our feelings now. Still, if we’ve attached ourselves to unrealizable dreams, we may feel a little deflated this afternoon as the Moon squares Neptune.

Monday, MARCH 16

Mercury returns to the sign of Pisces today, where it will transit until April 11th. Mercury first entered Pisces early February, but due to its retrograde, retreated into Aquarius. Mercury in Pisces is intuitive and patient. Our thinking is holistic. Until the 29th, Mercury remains in its post-retrograde shadow, and we may be covering old ground, this time armed with more information.

This morning, the Last Quarter Moon is exact with the Sun in Pisces forming a square to the Moon in Sagittarius. After basking in the awareness symbolized by the full light of the Moon at the time of last week’s Full Moon, we now need to sort out what works for us–and what doesn’t. This is not the best time to start a significant project, as the decreasing light of the Moon symbolizes descent into unconsciousness. However, it’s stable for taking a mature look at a situation, and it’s a good time for finishing up details and processing recent revelations. The Moon continues its transit of Sagittarius until 12:26 PM EDT, after which it moves through the sign of Capricorn. A Capricorn Moon is responsible and practical.

The void Moon occurs from 5:34 AM EDT, with the Moon’s last aspect before changing signs (a square to the Sun), until the Moon enters Capricorn at 12:26 PM EDT.

Tuesday, MARCH 17

The Moon spends the day in the sign of Capricorn, and we continue to seek more order and structure in our lives. Our careers, reputation, and objectives are in focus with the Moon in this sensible sign. We’re more aware of our image or standing, as well as of our obligations. Still, it’s an excellent time to make connections that seem to gently push our boundaries, and we feel better for it.

Wednesday, MARCH 18

The Moon spends much of the day in the sign of Capricorn, aligning with Mars, Jupiter, Pluto, and Saturn. It also forms a sextile to the Sun. We can be quite determined, enterprising, and ambitious today. Our sense of responsibility is stronger than usual. Our view of life is realistic and sensible, and we want to take action to build our sense of security. We look for ways to make us feel more secure and in control, and we’re pursuing your ambitions directly and courageously. The Moon enters Aquarius at 9:16 PM EDT, and we become less interested in accomplishments and more interested in connecting.

The void Moon occurs from 8:48 PM EDT, with the Moon’s last aspect before changing signs (a conjunction to Saturn), until the Moon enters Aquarius at 9:16 PM EDT.

Thursday, MARCH 19

The Sun forms a sextile to Saturn today, shortly before both bodies change signs. This is a super influence for getting prepared and attending to our practical affairs. We’re giving our priorities extra attention and giving them our best efforts. We can feel on the verge of change, and we want to be ready. This transit helps ground us, or at the least, gives us a sense of rhythm and helps us pace ourselves. This influence has the most beautiful potential to teach us that humbling ourselves to accept constructive criticism and advice or to recognize areas that need strengthening can be beneficial. It supports disciplining ourselves to bring more purpose and practicality to our lives. This is a time for self-awareness that leads to realistic plans and goals. We prefer and benefit from conservative, safe moves now.

The Sun enters pioneering Aries today, marking the time of the Spring equinox and the start of the astrological New Year, and will transit Aries until April 19th. We’re enthusiastic and spontaneous under this influence, and we can be motivated by the desire to conquer. We are impulsive, and we want to initiate, come first, and innovate. Aries is a sign that bounces back quickly–there is little pause for regret with Aries. It is brave and pioneering. We are direct and rather uncomplicated in our needs, but we can also be short-sighted or impatient. The Moon spends the day in Aquarius.

Friday, MARCH 20

Mars aligns with Jupiter in the sign of Capricorn today, bolstering our need to reach beyond our usual bounds. It’s a time when we possess a wealth of enthusiastic energy, and we’re ready to take chances. Our goal is to expand. We feel strong, positive, adventurous, and energetic. We are competitive, decisive, and we readily rise to a challenge and actively pursue our goals. There is some danger, however, of overdoing. We may be overly confident, boastful, or pushy with our opinions. Or we can take on too much, overestimating our capabilities. With Mars and Jupiter in Capricorn, business, increased order or security, and ambition can be the focus of our enterprising spirit. We feel compelled to take action. Our desires are big at this time, and the details will need to follow later.

The Moon spends the day in Aquarius, and we’re drawn to new and unique ways of approaching the world around us. Our sense of community runs high.

The void Moon occurs from 5:00 AM EDT, with the Moon’s last aspect before changing signs (a square to Venus), until the Moon enters Pisces tomorrow, Saturday, March 21st, at 8:34 AM EDT.

Saturday, MARCH 21

The Moon continues its transit of fair-minded Aquarius until 8:34 AM EDT, after which the Moon is in intuitive Pisces. A major planetary ingress happens today: Saturn enters Aquarius.

With Saturn in Aquarius, this can be a time for improving, simplifying, pruning, and redefining Aquarius-ruled areas of life, including our social lives, friendships, group associations, happiness goals, involvements, contributions, and associates. While there can be tests involved, it can also be a time for putting our ideals or dreams into practical motion. We’re less patient with pipe dreams as we gravitate toward more realistic plans, goals, and ideas. During this cycle, we have a strong sense of both the past and future. Ideally, we’re able to put our egos aside to do what’s best for the collective.

This transit comes in parts: it starts today and runs until July 1st when Saturn returns to Capricorn to finish up its transit. It will re-enter Aquarius on December 17th and will then continue in the sign until March 2023.

The void Moon continues until the Moon enters Pisces today at 8:34 AM EDT.

Sunday, MARCH 22

Mercury forms a sextile to Uranus today, encouraging alternative approaches and new ideas, as well as scientific thinking. Intuition is strong, and insights are quick and exciting. Original, creative ideas come naturally. We can take advantage of this by solving problems in new, innovative ways. Varying our usual routine may be especially rewarding, and ideas to do so abound.

Later today, Venus forms a sextile to Neptune, encouraging us to cut through some of the tension. We are looking to see the best in people with this transit. We tend to approach one another more gently and sensitively than usual with this transit. We are inclined to see spiritual dimensions of our relationships and to treat others with increased compassion. This influence encourages us to open up and embrace loving feelings. It also detaches us just enough from our feelings that we’re less possessive. The Moon spending the day in Pisces boosts this energy.

Even so, tension is building in other areas of our lives as Mars approaches a conjunction to Pluto, exact early tomorrow morning but influencing today. We can experience strong desires to take action on a matter, but impatience or pushiness could trip us up if we are not careful. Ideally, with this mixed bag of energies, we know where to ease off and where to apply the pressure for the best results.

The Mars-Pluto alignment occurs in the sign of Capricorn – ambitious, determined energy for building or rebuilding. This powerful aspect occurs approximately every two years. We should also watch for buried resentments and anger driving our actions and the tendency to ignore reason. However, well channeled, this energy can bring increased focus and motivation. We dare to go after what we want and to take decisive action. We might entirely revise or rebuild something from the ground up, break something down to start anew, or we may be determined to put a difficult situation behind us so that we can move forward. We might be too forceful or willful, however. We should also watch for overdoing to the point of exhaustion. This can be a compulsive time when power struggles are more likely. We can be tested to the limits. Positively, it can be a time when we enjoy a strong sense of purposefulness.

Monday, MARCH 23

Mars aligns with Pluto very early today, exciting our ambitions but perhaps also our fears. Jupiter forms a quintile with Chiron this morning as well, helping us to gain perspective. This long-term transit will occur again in June and November, following alongside the Jupiter-Neptune sextile and upcoming Jupiter-Pluto conjunction. It helps open our minds to others’ struggles and facilitates explaining our perspective to others. We’re more willing to learn and grow through our experiences. Both Jupiter and Chiron are useful for seeing the whole of a situation, making holistic problem-solving particularly rewarding and successful as these bodies connect through a creative aspect. We’re absorbing and sharing what we’ve learned from past experiences and mistakes. It’s time for listening to the wisdom of those who have the experience.

The Pisces Moon harmonizes with the Jupiter, Pluto, and Mars configuration, suggesting we’re getting a healthy distance from our ambitions and working with them instead of letting them work against us later morning. The Moon enters Aries at 8:59 PM EDT, and we’re seeking freshness. Still, the Moon is Balsamic with a New Moon occurring tomorrow morning, and it’s essential to take in rather than push forward just for now.

The void Moon occurs from 10:52 AM EDT, with the Moon’s last aspect before changing signs (a sextile to Mars), until the Moon enters Aries at 8:59 PM EDT.

Tuesday, MARCH 24

The New Moon occurs in the sign of Aries this morning at 5:29 AM EDT. With this new beginning, we’re in an excellent position to consider a commitment to personal goals that express the positive energies of the sign of the Ram. We might feel prompted to try something new and innovative, and go at it with enthusiasm and confidence, take charge of our lives, and discover our courage. This is a strong cycle under which to re-evaluate our relationship with ourselves.

Aries is the first sign of the zodiac, and thus a New Moon in Aries is especially ripe with opportunity for new beginnings. We might consider acting on a constructive impulse and following a hunch since Aries learns through experience and action. It’s also a good cycle under which to discover the benefits of expressing ourselves with authenticity – expressing ourselves as we are, without putting on airs. We might find ways to learn how to rely on ourselves and happily doing so. It will go a long way towards finding inner happiness when we know that we can be self-sufficient without blaming others for not helping us out. It’s a time to revitalize ourselves through experiences that break the routine and that involve doing something new and fresh.

The New Moon forms a square to the Nodes of the Moon, suggesting some obstacles to clear as we wrestle with whether our new beginnings support our growth. As well, Mars, the ruler of Aries, is found between Saturn and Pluto, suggesting some frustration. We can feel hemmed in or blocked. However, this can also lead to creative solutions for expressing ourselves in new ways.

A Venus-Chiron semi-square this morning suggests we’re inclined to focus on differences rather than similarities in our relationships, which works for us only if we make a concerted effort to learn from the differences. Fortunately, as the day advances and we head toward a Sun-Chiron alignment, we feel more open to the process.

Wednesday, MARCH 25

The Sun and Chiron align in the sign of Aries this morning, and this can pull up an opportunity to find a sense of purpose, increasing our confidence. Still, we might face life lessons that get us in touch with the insecurities that undercut our confidence. In fact, the way to grow and succeed seems to be about facing our fears. The desire to learn and grow through experiences and others is active now, and problem-solving is favored. This can be a time of building faith or confidence in our skills and talents. Openness and self-honesty are vital now, and the focus may be on asserting ourselves and acknowledging our own needs in healthy doses so that we can bring our “whole self” to our activities.

The Moon continues its transit of Aries all day, and we’re forward-looking and ready for a fresh start.

Thursday, MARCH 26

The Moon continues its transit of assertive Aries until 9:37 AM EDT, after which the Moon transits steady, practical Taurus. Mercury’s semi-square to Jupiter impacts our perceptions and decision-making today as we try to make sense of the information before us and attempt to find meaning in it. While we tend to inflate the good of a situation with this influence, Mercury’s also approaching a semi-square to Pluto, suggesting fear or suspicion is growing as the day advances. Either way, we may not be seeing things very clearly temporarily. Still, we might gain an advantage or edge through design, solving problems, and willingness to challenge ourselves.

The void Moon occurs from 3:17 AM EDT, with the Moon’s last aspect before changing signs (a square to Mars), until the Moon enters Taurus at 9:37 AM EDT.

Friday, MARCH 27

Mercury forms a semi-square to Pluto this morning, and we should watch for the taking on of too many interests or activities. Exaggerating our importance or power, either to ourselves or others, is best avoided. This transit can generate some tension or mental distress and worry. We can be inclined toward obsessing over an issue that we can’t control. We’re somewhat skeptical or mistrustful under this influence. However, if we harness the energy and use it for good, we can develop strategies to get to the bottom of any matter.

As the day advances, Venus heads toward a trine to Jupiter, exact very early tomorrow. This transit generates friendly energy and stimulates our desire for the ideal, lifting our spirits. It helps to both soften and strengthen us. We are big-hearted, and our feelings are big, begging expression. Gestures tend to be thoughtful, and we’re particularly hopeful, cheerful, and cooperative. It can be a somewhat lazy or self-indulgent time. Our tolerance for rudeness or crassness decreases. We are especially open and trusting of others, expecting the best, and both integrity and loyalty are favored.

Tomorrow, Venus forms the same harmonious aspect with Pluto, making it a uniquely rich period for relating. The Moon spends the day in the sign of content, persevering Taurus.

Saturday, MARCH 28

Venus forms a trine to Pluto today, and the need to share or enjoy life on deeper levels is strong now. This influence helps us get in touch with what we most love and cherish, and it aids us in narrowing our focus to our advantage. We seek to grow, improve, or develop our attachments. We are more strategic and can see the value of patience. We might gain new insight into business and personal relationships now. The Moon continues its transit of stable, sensual Taurus until 9:39 PM EDT, after which the Moon moves through curious and communicative Gemini. Today’s energies are particularly strong for problem-solving and for having more faith in one another.

The void Moon occurs from 7:06 PM EDT, with the Moon’s last aspect before changing signs (a trine to Mars), until the Moon enters Gemini at 9:39 PM EDT.
