Your relationships are being placed front and center this month, beginning with Venus stationing retrograde in independent Aries on March 1. As your ruling planet reverses through the cosmos, you’ll be re-evaluating the connections and dynamics that you’re a part of to ensure they’re currently meeting your needs. This may also be a period of personal rebrand for you, allowing you to experiment with a bolder sense of self-expression and confidence in love. From now until April 11, allow yourself to take risks in your relationships, but be careful not to rush into a new affair without first making sure that it’s a good fit.
The Virgo lunar eclipse on March 14 brings your attention inward, allowing you to focus more on your habits, tendencies, and thought patterns. Now, you’ll be made aware of any practices you’re engaging in that may be working against you. If you’ve been engaging too deeply in any form of negative self-talk, now is a good time to reinforce more positive affirmations. You spend a lot of time in contemplation, so it’s essential that your headspace is a healthy place to be.
Aries season kicks off on March 20, spotlighting your romantic affairs and connections with others. As this season unfolds, you’ll be leaning into a more leadership-oriented role in love and partnership. Although you’re someone who usually prefers balanced and reciprocal dynamics, you’ll now be feeling the need to be the initiator in your encounters with others. Whether you’re shooting your shot at a new love interest or taking on a more dominant role in a current partnership, now is a good time to reconnect with your confident side. By the Aries solar eclipse on March 29, you’ll be paving the way for exciting new connections to blossom that still allow for complete autonomy and independence. Today, taking the lead in love will be the focus, pushing you outside of your usual comfort zone. Though today’s energy may be unusual, you’ll have a clearer idea of what you want out of your romantic pursuits.
