March - Big Planetary Shifts Coming!

march Feb 27, 2023

"March will be the most impactful month of 2023" said the Astrologer.

Big shifts are happening in March! BOOM!

Ok, it's not actually going to be like a clap of thunder or being hit by a lightning bolt, but the planetary movements happening this month are important and they will affect all of us over the long run.


Let me unpack it for you:

On March 7, 2023, Saturn, the planet of discipline, hard work, destiny, diligence and limitations, is moving from Aquarius to Pisces.

Saturn has been in Aquarius since December 2020.

Saturn is the traditional ruler of Aquarius, so it is very comfortable in the sign.

Saturn in Aquarius combines Aquarius themes (original, unpredictable, futuristic), 11th House themes (groups, networks, organizations, friendships) and Saturn energy (limits, restrictions, lessons, a desire to gain control).

Remember the pandemic? Limits and restrictions on social structures, social lives and community.

Talk about Astrology in action...

So now, Saturn is making its move into the next sign, Pisces.

To understand this transit, we combine Pisces themes (dreams, emotions, intuition, creativity, boundary-lessness, addictions), 12th House themes (psychic ability, subconscious, inner self, secret matters, self-renewal), and Saturn, the taskmaster. 

This could be a time period where you overcome obstacles, grow stronger, become more responsible.

If you were dealing with any addictive behaviors, this would be a good time to use Saturn's strength and discipline to beat them.

It could also be a good time to use Saturn as the foundation and structure to build your dreams on.

Focus on creative projects, building a spiritual practice or beginning a meditation routine. 

Saturn will be in Pisces for the next 21/2 to 3 years (it will dip back into Aquarius for a short time during its Retrograde in 2025).

The second big planetary shift will occur on March 23, 2023, when Pluto (the planet of power, passion and transformation) moves from Capricorn to Aquarius. 

Pluto has been in Capricorn since 2008. Pluto changing signs is a big deal! The last time it made the slow move from Capricorn to Aquarius was in the 1700s!

And it will be a slow move, it will take about 3 attempts!

The first will be on March 23, 2023. Pluto will be in Aquarius from March 23, 2023 until June 12, 2023. It turns Retrograde on June 1, 2023 until October 11, 2023. It moves back into Capricorn on June 12, 2023 until January 22, 2024. Then it will re-enter Aquarius. It turns Retrograde on May 3, 2024 until October 12, 2024 and on September 2, 2024 it moves back into Capricorn until November 20, 2024. This time when it moves back into Aquarius, it will stay until March 10, 2043.

Pluto energy is power on the global level, but of course it affects us on the personal level.

To understand this planetary shift, let's first look at Pluto in Capricorn, since it's not quite finished there. Pluto is power and transformation, it has in its domain leaders (kings, queens, presidents, prime ministers, premiers). Leaders can rise and leaders can fall, they can be taken down by lies and corruption.

Capricorn rules work, business, government, democracy.

How has your work life changed and transformed since 2008? How have these Pluto/Capricorn themes affected you?

When Pluto moves into Aquarius, the people rise up and take the power. The focus shifts to community, networking, groups. Not power being wielded by one leader, but individuals coming together to lead and transform society for the better (for all).

To me, this is the true "Age of Aquarius" and it is just beginning to dawn. It will be a long, slow process. But, we are sure to be transformed!
