Your Horoscope This Week: March 15 To 21
Illustrated by Wenjing Yang.
R29 babes, the beginning of this week carries the quiet, reflective energy of the dark of the moon in Pisces, the final phase before the lunar cycle renews itself. The dark moon is often when emotions feel a little heavier, insecurities surface, and unfinished emotional business asks for attention. Collectively, it can feel like we’re swimming through deeper waters than usual. Add Mercury retrograde in Pisces to the mix, and the message is clear: this isn’t a moment for rushing ahead or forcing decisions. The dark moon is meant for rest, reflection, and tying up emotional loose ends. If you find yourself feeling more sensitive, nostalgic, or contemplative than usual, that’s part of the process. This phase invites you to slow down, listen to your intuition, and let the last remnants of eclipse season settle.

Then on March 18th, the atmosphere shifts beautifully as the New Moon in Pisces arrives at 28 degrees, forming a harmonious sextile with Uranus in Taurus, which is also at 28 degrees. This lunation marks the official end of eclipse season, and honestly, it’s the collective exhale we’ve all been waiting for. After weeks of emotional clearing, sudden realizations, and cosmic plot twists, this new moon offers a gentler reset. Pisces energy encourages us to dream, forgive, and imagine new possibilities, while Uranus in Taurus adds a spark of inspiration that helps us envision a future that feels more authentic and liberating. This is a powerful moment to set intentions for the next six months of your life, particularly around healing, creativity, compassion, and trusting your intuition.
Just two days later, the cosmic energy shifts again in a very noticeable way. On March 20th at 10:46 a.m. EST, the sun enters Aries, marking the equinox and the beginning of the astrological new year. Aries Season brings a burst of courage, initiative, and forward momentum. Then, at 3:33 p.m. EST the same day (peep the alignment), Mercury ends its retrograde in Pisces, aligning beautifully with the energy of new beginnings. If you’ve felt mentally foggy or stuck in reflection mode during Mercury retrograde, clarity starts returning now. While there will still be a short post-shadow period over the next couple of weeks, the difference in energy will be noticeable.
Because of this sequence of events, the window between March 18th and March 28th is particularly powerful for setting intentions. You may prefer to wait until after the equinox and Mercury turning direct on the 20th to write down your goals or plant seeds for the future. The shift from Pisces Season’s emotional clearing into the fiery momentum of Aries Season signals that we’ve collectively moved through the most intense part of the cycle. The first half of March asked us to release, reflect, and recalibrate through eclipses and retrogrades. Now the atmosphere begins to lighten. The fog lifts, inspiration returns, and it becomes clear that we’ve made it through the deeper waters. The dawn has broken, and a new chapter is ready to begin.

Aries Sun & Rising:
Aries, if you’ve been feeling like you’re halfway between who you used to be and who you’re becoming, this week is the bridge. The March 18th New Moon in Pisces activates your healing zone, offering a quiet but powerful reset after the chaos of eclipse season. This is less about launching something visible and more about releasing the emotional weight you’ve been carrying behind the scenes. What makes this new moon especially interesting is its harmonious sextile to Uranus in Taurus, which sits in your money and self-worth sector. Translation: when you let go of outdated fears or patterns, it directly unlocks new opportunities around income, confidence, and how you value yourself. Healing your mindset is the real upgrade here.
Then comes the cosmic moment you’ve been waiting for. On March 20th at 10:46 a.m. EST, the sun enters Aries, kicking off your birthday season and the astro new year. And the vibes are… intense in the best way. There’s a major stellium in your sign, with the sun joined by Venus, Saturn, Neptune, and Chiron, creating a rare concentration of energy in your identity zone. Think of it as the universe putting a spotlight directly on you. This is your chance to redefine how you show up in the world, whether that means leveling up your confidence, stepping into leadership, or finally pursuing something you’ve been quietly dreaming about. The key with this much Aries energy is intentionality. You don’t need to prove yourself, you just need to embody the version of you that already knows who they are.

Go for the workout, create the art, take the walk, start the thing that brings you back into the moment. Your healing journey is real, but it’s also allowed to be dynamic, playful, and nonlinear.
