From February 18th to March 20th, the Sun glides through Pisces. ’Tis the season for charging your crystals, tapping into your intuition, and keeping a box of tissues nearby at all times. This mutable water sign is known for being compassionate, imaginative, and highly sensitive. So if you want to spruce up your vision board, dust off your art supplies, or volunteer for a cause that’s close to your heart, go for it. But it also may be easier than usual to absorb other people’s emotions and deplete your own energy — especially because this Pisces season features an eclipse. Over the coming month, resist the temptation to martyr yourself, and set clear boundaries to prevent burnout. Saying no can keep you anchored to what really matters to you.

Lunar eclipse in Virgo: Don’t sweat the small stuff

If you have any unhelpful patterns of perfectionism, self-criticism, or micromanaging, they’ll be activated by the lunar eclipse in Virgo on March 3rd. Eclipses are known to spark beginnings and endings and speed up plotlines. And because this eclipse takes place near the South Node, a point in space associated with release, it’s an excellent time to let go of the habits and strategies that don’t work for you anymore. But you don’t have to take action to make this process happen. Lie low around March 3rd, and avoid making major decisions if you can. Any intense emotions or harsh judgments that this eclipse brings up are showing you what needs to be composted and transformed into something more supportive. This moment is part of a longer story that started with the first Virgo eclipse in this series, which occurred on March 13th, 2025. Reflect on the themes or issues that came up around that date and consider what’s resurfacing for you now. And stay open to what’s shifting, but don’t try to make sense of all these changes just yet. You’ll have more clarity once the dust of eclipse season has settled.

New Moon in Pisces: Dream a little dream (or a big one)

New Moons are fresh starts. And the New Moon in Pisces on March 18th is a chance to set intentions for bringing more empathy and idealism into your life. You don’t need to nail down all the details of what you want to manifest, though. Focus on the big picture and think expansively about what feels good to you. And any activities that put you into a flow state, such as meditating or making art, are especially useful around this time. This New Moon gets a helpful boost from Uranus, the planet of disruption, so this is also a great opportunity to gently shake up your old ways of doing things. Challenge yourself to envision out-there possibilities and experiment with unfamiliar approaches. It’s never too late to begin again.
