It’s March, Leo, and that means bold Aries season, a tumultuous eclipse, and a cosmic challenge to step into your confidence. Are you brave enough to let yourself accept love and pleasure? Everyone thinks that Leos revel in attention, but the truth is, even a majestic lion such as yourself can succumb to feelings of inadequacy. In February, your horoscope saw you enjoying a burst of creativity. When the divine messenger Mercury moves into fellow fire sign Aries on Saturday, March 9, the stars want you to use your talents to come up with ideas for a fun and relaxing vacation — or at least staycation, if that’s more within your budget. After working too hard, your feline self is due for lots of cat naps.
Each phase of the moon comes with unique magical properties. New moons — like the one that occurs in Pisces and your 8th House of Sex, Death, and Transformation on Sunday, March 10 — are all about fresh starts and new cycles. There’s something about the mysterious dark sky of new moons that summons the witch within all of us. Have you heard the good news about sex magic? It just means to direct your sexual energy towards a desire or something you wish to manifest. To do this while masturbating (solo sex magic is preferable so you don’t have to worry about anyone else’s energy) simply visualize your goal when you come, whether that’s professional advancement or an ideal partner. And, if you have trouble orgasming, know that the build-up of sexual energy works just as well as harnessing any sensual pleasure. If you’re not interested in sex toys or are asexual, use this new moon to visualize your goals while enjoying a different sort of enjoyable activity, such as soaking in a lavish bath.
When loving Venus moves into your 8th house on Monday, March 11, the goddess of love wants you to nurture your relationship with yourself. It’s okay to need alone time to rest and recharge. Your other relationships, romantic or platonic, become healthiest when you are well-rested and feeling good. When the sun enters bold Aries on Tuesday, March 19, which marks the Spring Equinox, the astrological New Year, and the Pagan holiday Ostara (which you can think of as a witchy Easter) you’re blessed with a surge of confidence. Don’t question it; embrace it.
This surge of self-assuredness is seconded when warrior Mars joins Venus in your 8th House on Friday, March 22, encouraging you to allow yourself to enjoy earthly pleasures. The rest of March is for sleeping in as late as possible, treating yourself to delicious food and wine, or whatever your responsible vice of choice. One date you want to mark down in your calendar is Monday, March 25, as this day brings a full moon and lunar eclipse in Libra that could lead to communication mishaps. Think of this day as a short but ultra-intense Mercury retrograde. People are on edge. Social media will be extra stressful, so try to stay off your phone as much as possible. The mood is ripe for miscommunication; rather than let things go, folks are in the mood to start a fight. The key to surviving the eclipse with as little fallout as possible is to dive deep into self-care, put off having any important conversations (you can blame your astrologer if you need to), and continue to revel in activities that make you feel good. You can do it, Leo, and we’ll see you in April.
