the writer's guide to march's astrology

saturn in pisces, pluto in aquarius, mars leaves gemini, and more

Among the folks I see in “real” life, I’ve been calling January and February a prologue to 2023. Not because what happens in these early months didn’t count, but rather, because the tenor of the year will change so dramatically in March that it will almost certainly feel like a before and after. 

To call March a game changer is not quite sufficient. 

February brought major moments of finality as cycles culminated and closed with planets making final major aspects; that will continue in early March as those planets hit their critical final degree of, so what did we learn here? By March’s end, we are starting fresh at 0* with planets in many fresh, new signs, laying new groundwork, making new connections and aspects. 

With major outer planets Planet and Saturn changing signs, as well as Mars leaving Gemini for the first time in 7+ months, the very environment around us is shifting. Not to mention Aries season dawning; not to mention communicative Mercury changing signs not once, but twice. 

Here’s what lies in the month ahead.
