March Moons & More

March carries the dreamy, intuitive energy of Pisces season, inviting us to tap into our creativity, compassion, and spiritual growth. This month, get ready to navigate the four key moon phases and a lunar eclipse, each offering an opportunity for reflection, action, celebration, and renewal.

Pisces season is a time of deep introspection and heightened intuition. As the final sign of the zodiac, Pisces symbolizes endings, transitions, and the culmination of a year’s worth of lessons. It encourages us to let go of rigid expectations and instead embrace flow, imagination, and emotional awareness. 

Each week in Pisces season has a different moon phase to guide your personal growth. The upcoming New Moon in Pisces inspires vision and intention setting. The First Quarter Moon in Gemini encourages you to take decisive steps toward your goals. The Full Moon in Virgo, coupled with a powerful lunar eclipse, illuminates what is working and what must be released. The Last Quarter Moon in Capricorn wants you to break free from limitations and make space for renewal and new possibilities.

By working with these lunar energies, you can bring more clarity, growth, and healing into your life. This guide is designed to help you align with each phase of the moon, offering journal prompts, self-care activities, and affirmations to support your journey throughout March.
