Astrology for March 6-12 2026

Venus Enters Aries, Jupiter direct in Cancer 

On March 6, Venus enters Aries until March 30. The planet of relationships, pleasure, beauty, and finances, steps into the sign of the warrior. Venus in this position goes after what she wants. We tend to value courage and bold action in love. We get decisive and are less interested in maybe. Venus in Aries does like a cat and mouse flirtation style, so dynamics that emulate ‘the hunt’ can surface during this time. Success in relationships and finance will require being direct about interests and desires. A word of caution with this signature: we may be starting things that we do not intend to finish. Take care to monitor impulsivity, especially in romance related endeavors. Remember to consider all parties involved, and not solely your own interests.  

On March 7, Venus conjuncts Neptune in Aries at 1º and this is the stereotypical rose-colored glasses transit. It can be hard to see clearly, as this combination can make things seem better than they truly are. We may be invited to experience a dream scenario, a fantasy that appears to come true, or to indulge in a surreal high. Careful, because tomorrow’s transit may be brutal in contrast. The thing to pay attention to: what do today’s circumstances reveal about your own  perception? Your own ideals? What you desire? What turns you on? Why? Is this escapism? Naivety? Or truly a higher love? This has spiritual and creative potential, but there is important information here to clock. 

On March 8, Venus conjuncts Saturn in Aries at 2º. Yesterday’s rose-colored glasses have fallen off and the reality is revealed. This is a hard checkpoint in relationships. In Aries, this combo is pointing to how we do or do not stand up for our own desires, needs, and wants in relationships. This can involve tough conversations and confrontations. This moment requires extreme maturity and self-responsibility. We are being asked to face the ways we have been out of integrity with our true sense of self, especially in our relating dynamics with others. What needs to be adjusted or confronted? There’s no room for pretending here. 

On March 9, Mercury retrograde in Pisces trines Jupiter retrograde in Cancer at 15º. This can play out in a number of ways. We can receive an important message from someone from the past, a vivid memory flashes through our mind, or we are informed via nostalgic feeling about something that still needs attention or deeper processing. Revisiting old topics of conversation is likely but, can flow with surprising ease. These planets are concerned with expansion, learning, and communicating depth of feeling. If something does surface from the past, be it a physical artifact or an energetic hit, look for the message within it. What is being suggested by it surfacing? In its highest expression, this can signal a ‘look how far you’ve come’ moment. Reflections lead to higher understanding and deeper questions. In safe exchanges, emotional bonds can deepen from these conversations. If past situations are no longer viable, this is a potent self-reflection point. Take advantage of it. 

On March 10, Jupiter in Cancer stations direct at 15º and Venus in Aries sextiles Pluto in Aquarius at 4º. Jupiter is strong and boldly highlights the integration of lessons that have been ongoing since it stationed retrograde on November 11, 2025. Since that time, much of the learning and expansion we have been working with has been internal in nature and about the way we engage with our inner life. Themes involving patriotism, country, ancestry, emotional bonds, family dynamics, and a general sense of belonging have been churning and evolving both individually and collectively. Jupiter direct will bring these themes out in the open from now through June 30, when Jupiter leaves the sign of Cancer and enters Leo. To whom or what do you feel you belong to? Venus sextile Pluto will encourage further developments in this evolution of our story. It will be easier to recognize what we are drawn to, what we are truly passionate about. It’s not all doom and gloom out there. What is pulling like a magnet? Where do you feel drawn by emotional optimism?
