Both are powerful events that signal the arrival of a new beginning and a powerful change for us as individuals and collectively on this planet.

The March Equinox (20-21)

The March Equinox ushers in the Season of Aries, and since Aries is the first sign of the zodiac, this is also the beginning of the astrological new year.

It is the beginning of Spring, here in the Northern Hemisphere, and Autumn for those in the Southern Hemisphere.

The Equinox is what happens when the sun crosses the celestial equator, making day and night the same length – hence the word equinox which means equal night in Latin.

The Equinox is always a time of equilibrium and balance – a moment in time where day and night have equal hours.

The Equinox is also said to have great spiritual significance as a time when the veil between our world and the higher realms grows thinner and easier to cross.

Ancient cultures that were more deeply connected to the changes of the Earth and its seasons celebrated the Equinox as a magical time of harmony and natural wisdom.







Harmony and Balance

This means that the March Equinox is a wonderful day to bring our lives into balance.

You may want to focus on bringing different areas of your life into alignment, such as your diet, your daily routine, and the way you are. See where you can bring more balance into your life and find inner strength and stability.

Anything you can do that promotes harmony around the time of the Equinox will help you connect with magical energies.

You may feel like meditating or creating a vision board of your dreams and goals. You may be drawn to spending time in nature or doing something creative quietly.

Whatever feels right for you, let yourself be called by what your soul is telling you this day, and follow that instinct.

Zero Planets in Retrograde







Not having major planets in retrograde motion is a wonderful bonus for this time of year. It means that we are surrounded by a strong, motivational and moving energy.

You will likely experience a burst of productivity, and taking action towards your goals and projects will feel easy.

Aries New Moon (March 21)

After the climax of the Equinox, we have the Aries New Moon on March 21st and it is bursting with fabulous, creative and charged energy.

This New Moon heralds one of the best times of the year for setting intention and looking forward to the future with optimism.

The most productive way to harness this energy is to get super clear on everything you want to create during the coming astrological year.

It’s a wonderful time to plant the seeds of your dreams and figure out what you need to do to help the Universe bring them into your reality.

What habits and behaviors do you need to look at? What thought patterns are still keeping you stuck?

Think of this New Moon as an amazing gift from the heavens – an opportunity to start over.







You can really renew everything about your life this March and make sure that your vibration is on a high frequency and magnetizing everything that you want to you!

Now is the time to leave behind who you thought you were and step into the life you’ve always dreamed of.

Let the energy of this astrology empower you, and let it push you forward out of your comfort zone and into a more exciting reality.

Aries New Moon Eclipse (April 19)

This Aries New Moon on March 21st is connected to the second Aries New Moon Eclipse coming up on April 19th.

We will talk about that closer to the time, but it is important to note that they will work together thematically.

Whatever comes up for you at the time of the Aries New Moon in March will likely be revealed or further revealed during the Aries New Moon Eclipse in April.

You can think of the two moons as two bookends, each symbolizing the beginning and end of some kind of episode in your life.







This is a time of enormous changes in the world in general, and it is possible that you will experience some kind of awakening yourself, or possibly receive some kind of important information that will change your perspective.

Whatever unfolds, the energy from the Universe is bold, and powerful, and brings so many exciting opportunities for all.

The best way to navigate all these cosmic changes is to find a sense of calm within.

It is much easier to move and flow with fresh energy when you have an unwavering sense of who you are in the world.

When you lead with an open heart and inner confidence, you align your energy to receive new inspiration and opportunities to boost your life and create new experiences for yourself.

This month of March is all about the new and the exciting – don’t let it pass you by without capturing that energy and using it to expand your mind and improve your life!

Mantra for the March Equinox and New Moon in Aries:
