New Moon in Pisces
This week brings an ending and a beginning with the final lunation of the astrological year in the final sign of the zodiac. As the new Moon in Pisces meets us March 18, 2026, it quietly holds a threshold and asks us to cross it.
Pisces is surrender, beauty, sacredness, and inspiration. The Moon feels, knows, loves, and allows. Together, they support experiencing our emotions. They ask us to breathe out and let go, so that we may open to what is beginning through us.
Though the new phase of the lunar cycle is invisible to the naked eye, something has already begun. The Moon reminds us that we cannot always see what is forming beneath us, through us, and before us. We cannot always know the greater potential taking place in the silence before they are ready to become known.
This new Moon is the kind of beginning that sits in the unknown first. In mystery and vibration, emotion and surrender. Soon the outer world will mirror this new beginning. But here, before all that, the Moon steps ahead, inviting us with her. There is something shifting under this lunation, and it is only if we are quiet, open, and receptive enough that we might be able to sense it.
Sun Enters Aries
The Moon silently and quietly began anew a few days before, but it is on this day that the rest of world catches up and resets itself. This one day brings different approaches to a single new beginning. On March 20, 2026, the Sun crosses the celestial equator as the Earth stands still, a time known as the equinox, a word meaning “equal day and night.” And the astrological new year also begins with the first zodiac season of the year, Aries season.
Our first sign of the zodiac, Aries is the beginning of every astrological year. It invites new life. It inspires bold beginnings. It asks us to live courageously in alignment with our inner compass. It nudges us to move.
Aries is a season of fire. Here we are less guided by the mind or emotional fluctuations. We are instead guided by knowing, intuition, passion, desire, and enthusiasm. We are guided by a voice that feels instinctual and innate. A part of us that wants to give this life our all.
Mercury Direct in Pisces
As if the cosmos had designed the week’s timing entirely on purpose, Mercury finishes its retrograde and begins its forward movement on the same day as the change in seasons and astrological years. After being retrograde since February, Mercury stations direct in Pisces on March 20, 2026.
This was not an ordinary Mercury retrograde. Held in the final sign of the zodiac, it was less about a conscious review and more of a release. A letting go of unconscious material, tension, and attempts at control. A relinquishing of stories and narratives that were never ours. And a release of ideas, perceptions, and patterns that no longer feel right.
Yet it happened quietly, with Mercury subtly wading through conscious and unconscious material as we continued with everyday life. Yet as the planet stations direct, we can make the conscious decision to turn away from all that was observed and reviewed and no longer aligns.

Your Weekly Horoscope, March 15-21, 2026
It’s a week in which the cosmic movements mirror the changes taking place within you. As everything shifts around you, something in you follows, whether you know where you are going or not. Whether your surrender into the unknown or struggle. Whether you can see it or not. Let yourself move with it. Your weekly horoscope explains how.
Aries Rising
Your rebirth awaits. But not before a release. Not before a letting go. Not before an act of surrender becomes a threshold for you. This week, allow your emotions to direct you. Allow forgiveness to change you. Allow silence to hold you. As you do so, observe what is beginning within you. Life wants to also begin again around you. Let it.
Taurus Rising
Guidance is speaking through silence this week—through feeling, clearing space, and placing all that feels busy, overwhelming, and out of your control to the side, onto paper, prayer or boundary. Something new is forming, asking you to trust in your new beginning. Let inspiration take up more space in your brain and your body.
Gemini Rising
Look ahead. Not to figure it all out. Not to know what awaits with certainty or to ground ideas into concrete form. But to feel. To open. To question your existing perceptions. To explore what arises. To create space for the intuitions and desires beneath the noise.
Cancer Rising
It’s a week of heeding your intuition. It’s a week that wants you to remember your inherent belonging within this vast existence. Let that bring bold courage. Bold courage to trust yourself. Bold courage to follow your inner direction. Bold courage to say yes to existing uniquely and truly as you.
Leo Rising
Something is shifting beneath your surface. You’re asked to further explore yourself. As old patterns release, can you find more trust, forgiveness, and surrender? On offer is a reclamation of who you are—your truth, strength, softness, and desires that are still there beneath it all.
Virgo Rising
This week creates conditions that support a releasing of the walls around your heart and a strength to navigate life without them. It holds space for old relational patterns to be released and asks you to explore the innermost layers of yourself. More of you is waiting to be reclaimed.
Libra Rising
This week invites greater bodily intuition. Let an inner rhythm guide your pace, habits, decisions, and everyday movements. It’s as if beyond the noise of what’s right and wrong, healthy and unhealthy, your body knows what it needs. This initiates a new chapter, one of courage, openness, and expressiveness.
Scorpio Rising
You’re asked to celebrate yourself this week–even if just for a moment. Try to recognize and appreciate all the ways you’ve chosen yourself instead of hiding, dimming, or contorting your true person. With that awareness comes greater agency in the way you choose to exist, move, and create in this world.
Sagittarius Rising
Something is shifting within you. This week asks you to create space for this to take place, even if only by acknowledging that it’s happening. What ensues is greater freedom of self, creative expression, and play. Self-abandonment no longer belongs here.
Capricorn Rising
This week brings imagination and ease to your thoughts. There’s a clearing of what is no longer aligned that makes space for opening to what lies beyond it all. These days emphasize the medicine of your voice and the creativity of your thoughts. Together, they ignite direction, knowing, and desire led by your innermost knowing.
Aquarius Rising
Create space in your schedule, breath, mind, and body. Life is reminding you of your belonging, worth, strength, and safety. It’s supporting an altered way of thinking. It’s asking you to be bold in how you trust yourself. And it’s enabling you to overcome where you’ve learned to control and hoard in order to feel safe.
Pisces Rising
It is your week. And it supports both a letting go and a leaning in. There’s a release of stories and identities of who you are and how life moves for you. And there’s an embrace of what has been quietly emerging underneath. Consider it an initiation of a new season of self-trust, body, and inner-strength.
