It’s a brand new month…and you know what that means! The planets are at in again and, this time, Mars is leading the charge! On March 3, this red planet heads into Gemini’s domain and for the next few weeks, you’ll actually be ready to take a break from your long-term goals (audible gasp) and focus on your day-to-day circumstances. That’s right, Capricorn—I know you’re a big-picture visionary, but right now, you’re about to go micro! First, consider your calendar: How can you restructure your schedule to accommodate your changing interests? Maybe—just maybe—you want to have work-life balance…what will that look like? You can’t just assume it will happen, Capricorn! Carving out time to catch your breath is not unproductive. In fact, these short pauses for reflection will actually enable you to process your experiences and make better, more informed choices that will generate lasting change. The motto is working smarter—not harder.

The New Moon in Pisces blankets the sky on March 13. With no nocturnal illumination, this isn’t the best time for taking action, because any decisions made under this lunation will definitely be shooting in the dark…literally. This is, however, a wonderful moment to redirect your gaze, considering any relationships that have fallen by the wayside. How can you go out of your way to make sure your closest companions are feeling loved and appreciated? Whether you’re sending a thoughtful handwritten letter or simply scheduling an overdue Zoom date, this month’s New Moon offers space to celebrate others. How beautiful!

Next up, we welcome Aries season as the Sun drifts into this powerful fire sign, sparking the Spring Equinox. Hello sunshine! Hello warmth! Hello…drama? Yes, Capricorn babe, I’m sorry to say that the next few weeks may stir up some old feelings—but don’t fret because there’s an easy solution. For you, solar motion through Aries is about battening down the hatches and ensuring your nest is safe, secure, and stable. In other words, you want to make sure you’re standing on solid ground, so if quarantine has turned your domestic space into a disaster zone, this is the perfect time for a little spring cleaning. This is more than just grabbing a broom, Capricorn—it’s about shifting your perspective.

And that POV adjustment will be well worth it because, on March 28, the month concludes with a Full Moon in Libra, activating the area of your chart associated with career, legacy, and success. Sound familiar? Yes, these are your absolute favorite things, Capricorn, and now—beneath the electric moonlight—you’ll know exactly what you need to get what you want! Don’t be surprised if you receive exciting details about an unexpected professional opportunity (although “unexpected” is slightly euphemistic, since your achievements were never a matter of “if'' but of “when”). How do you feel knowing that some of your most far-fetched dreams are transforming into day-to-day realities? The truth is, Capricorn, that nothing is ever black-and-white. Sometimes even the most positive shifts can conjure complicated, perhaps even negative, feelings like imposter syndrome or inferiority complexes. This is perfectly normal. Keep yourself grounded (as this lunation is in an air sign, breathwork can definitely help) and focus on forward motion. You got this!
