General Planetary Conditions
We’ll start with the general planetary conditions for March 2025 and then get into key highlights for the Eclipses and Venus.
Sun begins the month in Aquarius, but shifts to Pisces in on March 15. Happy birthday to Aquarius and Pisces Sun! Pisces in particular sees a LOT of action in March. More on that later.
Next up, Mars has come out of its debility and retrograde, which is probably a relief for Scorpio and Aries. Mars remains in Gemini for the full month. So Gemini, you may find yourself dealing with some anger issues but also feeling a strong sense of motivation.
Mercury is having a tough month. It’s in its debilitation sign, Pisces, the whole month, and then goes retrograde on March 15. And by March 18, Mercury is both retrograde and combust, so this can be challenging for Gemini and Virgo. With the retrograde happening in water sign, Pisces, all three water signs—Pisces, Scorpio, and Cancer—should take extra precautions with technology and communication. Back up your important files and documents! Generally speaking, if you feel yourself impacted by this Mercury retrograde you may want to hold off on starting new business or tech projects until after April 12 when Mercury goes direct. Mercury retrograde can support re-thinking, refining, or re-formatting current or planned projects.
Slow moving Jupiter continues in Taurus for the whole month and it continues in its benefic Parivartana Yoga with Venus. So this can be a subtle boost for Taurus and Libra. Sagittarius and Pisces will also catch good vibes from this exchange.
Saturn will be combust for most of March which can impact Capricorn and Aquarius. Guard against burnout and all signs should be on the lookout for sluggish digestion. If this is an issue, you can drink Ayurvedic tea made with Cumin Seed, Fennel seed, and Coriander seeds. The combustion ends on March 30, when Saturn transits into Pisces.
This is a big energetic shift as Saturn has been in its own signs of Capricorn and Aquarius for the past 5 years. If you have Aries moon, you’ll be starting the first phase of Sadhesati which is a 7.5 year initiation into Saturn’s wisdom. If you have Pisces moon, you’re headed into your peak Sadhesati and you may want to check out the Planetary Mantras video to help support your Saturn initiation. Good news for Aquarius moon is that your Sadhesati cycle is going into its final stage.
So, Venus! Planet of love, beauty, and relationships is both exalted and retrograde for the Month of March. This will affect all signs in different ways, but definitely expect a focus on relationships. The retrograde energy may highlight repeating patterns in your relationships, it may re-connect you with someone from your past, or support your healing past relationships that still affect you.
Venus is conjunct the North Node, shadow planet Rahu, and She receives the aspect of Ketu, so expect some deeply karmic relationship themes to surface in March. Especially with the retrograde, there’s an opportunity for healing and transforming past relationship karmas. Rahu also creates future karma, so you may find yourself wanting a new relationship if you’re single or getting into a new relationship. Since Rahu is a shadow planet, it amplifies your desires for relationship, but remember that Rahu is malefic and full of illusions. So approach new relationships with caution. Rahu people aren’t always who they appear to be on the surface. This combination of Rahu and Venus can bring lasting love, but it can also bring a connection that feels very intense but changes when Rahu passes into Aquarius in May.
Big News this month—Eclipse season is here!
So the big news this month is the Spring eclipse cycle. Leo, Aquarius, Virgo and Pisces can expect to feel it most intensely. The March eclipses have a transitional energy. The Lunar Nodes, Rahu and Ketu, remain on the Virgo/Pisces axis, but the eclipses themselves, happen on the Leo/Aquarius axis. People in North, Central, and South America will be most affected by this Lunar eclipse as its visible throughout the Americas. The Solar eclipse is only fully visible in the northeast United States and eastern Canada.
Virgo and Pisces may not feel this eclipse season as intensely as last year, but with 6 planets heading into Pisces for the March 29 Solar Eclipse, it definitely affects Pisces. Leo and Aquarius experience more intensity this year as the eclipses are in your signs and the Lunar Nodes will shift onto the Leo/Aquarius axis in May.
The March 29 Solar Eclipse is crazy with 6 planets conjunct in Pisces and both Venus and Mercury retrograde. Seriously, Pisces, take the day off work and meditate or do something creative. It’s good for all signs to practice self-care and introspection during eclipses, but there’s a LOT of planetary complexity for Pisces on this one. Not to mention that the Solar Eclipse also marks the day that Saturn enters Pisces and Pisces moon people begin their peak Sadhesati.
Generally speaking for all signs, it’s a good idea to avoid starting new projects, travel, or making important life-changing decisions during the eclipse cycle, but this especially applies to Pisces, Virgo, Leo, and Aquarius.
