If you’re planning to make financial or professional changes in March, you’ll want to stay on top of this month’s astrology. Some upcoming cosmic events could significantly impact your bank account, career trajectory, and more.
Your financial horoscope for March includes back-to-back eclipses and two major retrogrades, so there’s no shortage of chaos in the planetary realm.
Aries (March 20 – April 18)
This is a big month to get in touch with your ambitions and clarify your values regarding money. Venus retrograde begins in your sign on March 1, forcing you to get real about what your time, money, and energy are worth. Intellectual Mercury hits your sign a few days later, giving you an edge when it comes to logistics and planning. Get your finances in order before Mercury retrograde begins on March 15!
The mid-month lunar eclipse could be especially disruptive to your daily routine, so be prepared for unexpected costs or scheduling conflicts that shuffle your work agenda. The last third of the month brings moments of clarity amidst the retrograde madness.
Taurus (April 19 – May 19)
Pisces season has you networking and connecting with like-minded colleagues in your field, and Saturn’s cazimi on March 12 is the perfect time to solidify a commitment or take a financial collaboration more seriously. The lunar eclipse two days later helps you get real about your passion projects and reconnect with your creativity. Not everything has to be perfect for you to pursue it.
Having Venus and Mercury retrograde at the end of the month makes it hard to see your goals and values clearly, so hold off on any extravagance and keep your bank account tight. Misunderstandings with colleagues may arise around the solar eclipse, so take it easy.
Gemini (May 20 – June 19)
Pisces season keeps you focused on your career during the first half of the month, and you’ll find that collaborating with others brings you even more success—just make sure you trust the people you’re working with! The trine between the Sun and entrepreneurial Mars on March 7 gives you lots of motivation to boost your income and level up in your career, while Saturn’s cazimi a few days later motivates you to see your projects through to completion. It’s a great week to discuss a raise or seek a higher-paying position.
Your ruling planet Mercury begins retrograding on March 15, which could cause missed connections or misunderstandings between colleagues. The retrograde chaos may start mixing signals at work near the end of the month, so take it slow.
Cancer (June 20 – July 21)
The month begins with Venus retrograde in your career sector and Mercury moving into the same part of your chart, bringing analytical energy and a reevaluation of how you approach your career trajectory. Think deeply about what is worth working for. On March 7, the Sun will high-five entrepreneurial Mars in your sign, inspiring you to chase higher financial goals and be a bit more adventurous with your financial endeavors.
Mercury starts retrograding in your ambitious tenth house in the middle of the month, making it harder to start new projects or seek new positions. Focus on tying up loose ends during this second half of March. If you need to make a big change, Mercury’s cazimi on March 24 could bring a green-light moment amidst the retrograde, and you’ll want to trust your professional intuition during the solar eclipse on March 29.
Leo (July 22 – August 21)
The mental planet Mercury hits your ninth house of knowledge-seeking on March 3, inspiring you to think bigger about your financial goals. Don’t be stingy and foolish—if you want to pursue something ambitious, plan and go all in! The lunar eclipse on March 14 hits your money zone, challenging you to be more realistic about your budget. There’s no point in setting unrealistic expectations for your savings goals and then blaming yourself when you can’t meet them. Slow and steady wins the race.
If you’ve considered pursuing higher education to land a higher position, use the second half of the month as a planning stage rather than an action phase, as Mercury retrograde may mix your signals.
Virgo (August 22 – September 21)
Paying off your debts is a big theme for you this month, and you may find yourself making plans to pay off loans or get back what you’re owed, especially when Mercury enters your shared finances house on March 3. A business partnership or financial contract could get serious during Saturn’s cazimi on March 12, making it a great time to seal a deal. A few days later, the lunar eclipse in your sign challenges you to stop being so self-critical. No one hits every financial goal or has a perfect work record, so cut yourself some slack.
Your ruling planet Mercury starts retrograding on March 15, bringing the potential for failed past financial ventures to come back to the table during the second half of the month. Consider your options wisely, as not everything is as it seems during eclipse season.
Libra (September 22 to October 21)
Pisces season pulls you deep into your work routine, helping you focus on your daily schedule and build more productivity into your agenda. You’ll feel especially motivated to make powerful professional moves around March 7, as the sun forms a trine with entrepreneurial Mars in your career sector, bringing the necessary energy to achieve your goals. On March 12, Saturn’s cazimi helps you ground yourself, making it a powerful time to get organized and commit to new habits that benefit you financially, professionally, and beyond.
Unfinished contracts or business partnerships that were left behind may come back for review when Mercury retrograde begins on March 15, so keep an open mind about giving things a second chance—especially during Mercury’s period in the last week of the month.
Scorpio (October 22 to November 20)
Pisces season has you dreaming up all kinds of creative side hustles. When the mental planet Mercury hits your productivity zone on March 3, you’ll be ready to start turning your visions into a solidly profitable plan. A few days later, a lucky trine between the sun and your action-oriented ruler Mars will inspire you to take risks and pursue whatever passion project you’re eager to get off the ground—whether it’s a new business or a project proposal at work.
Mercury retrograde may turn your routine upside down during the second half of the month, making it difficult to keep your finances organized or stay on top of your work responsibilities. Give yourself some extra wiggle room in your schedule to account for any unforeseen circumstances and set aside some money for unexpected costs if possible.
Sagittarius (November 21 to December 20)
There isn’t always much time for side projects when work demands so much energy, but with value-driven Venus retrograding through your creativity zone starting on March 1 and quick-thinking Mercury joining the party two days later, you may find yourself revisiting some million-dollar ideas with fresh eyes. Consider how you can turn a passion project into something profitable, as this month will bring many opportunities.
The lunar eclipse on March 14 is illuminating your career sector, challenging you to abandon a perfectionist mindset in favor of a more fluid and intuitive approach. Your instincts could lead you to success, and the solar eclipse two weeks later is the perfect time to explore your inspiration.
Capricorn (December 31 to January 18)
Pisces season is lighting up your communication sector, allowing you to speak up about career matters and initiate important conversations about money. If you have something to propose at work or to a business partner, the lucky trine between the sun and action-oriented Mars on March 7 is a great time to try, and Saturn’s cazimi a few days later may help you solidify your commitments.
Let the lunar eclipse on March 14 inspire you to think bigger and broader about your future goals, letting go of any scarcity mindset and embracing abundance. Mercury retrograde begins the next day, and you’ll want to be extra mindful about double-checking your work at the end of the month, as miscommunications are likely.
Aquarius (January 19 to February 17)
Pisces season is putting your finances front and center, so it’s a great time to assess your financial situation and make any necessary changes. If you need to budget or pursue a fiscal goal, the trine between the sun and entrepreneurial Mars on March 7 is a great time to make profitable power moves. A few days later, Saturn’s cazimi brings an opportunity to establish a solid foundation for a new business or income-boosting endeavor.
The lunar eclipse on March 14 brings past debts to light, giving you a chance to wipe the slate clean. Meanwhile, Mercury retrograde begins the next day, so be extremely cautious about communicating with clarity. Misunderstandings are very easy now, and financial confusion is even more likely at the end of the month.
Pisces (February 18 to March 19)
This is a big month for your finances, as Venus retrograde begins in your money zone on March 1, helping you rethink your spending habits. Intellectual Mercury joins the party on March 3, giving you a logistical edge that will help with numerical calculations—at least until this planet’s backspin begins two weeks later.
Saturn’s cazimi in your sign on March 12 gives you the steel to commit to your goals, so tie up loose ends with money or work projects before Mercury retrograde starts mixing signals a few days later. While finances may feel murky, the last week of the month brings some clarity, allowing you to make power moves amid the cosmic chaos.
