Virgo horoscope for March 2024


Because the Sun will always spend the first three weeks of March in your relationship sector, the solar spotlight is always on your relationships at this time of year. However, because the Full Moon that will always fall at some point during the Sun's month long visit and can put a balance between your personal and relationship needs to the test has already happened, you begin the month with a sense of what you want from your relationships and what they need from you from the start. You also begin the month with the resolve to use any wakeup calls this brought when it comes to your personal and relationship needs to take your power back on both fronts.

It helps that you not only begin the month with the Moon in your communication sector but you have Mercury, the planet of communication in your relationship sector until 10th March. This is the same day that a New Moon will make this an opportunity for new beginnings or a fresh start. It is two days later that Venus, the planet of love will return on 12th March to work her magic, while Mars will return for his first visit to your relationship sector in two years on 23rd March. This means that when the Sun leaves on 20th March the momentum and the journey will be in safe hands.

Until then, Venus and Mars are working to make the most of their final weeks in your work sector and as Mars won't be back until the end of 2025, the first 23 days of the month are likely to be busy. However, with Pluto in the early months of a 20 year visit, this is a chance to get things up to speed before levelling off and focusing more on the journey. Meanwhile, as Venus and Mars are getting ready to continue what the Sun and Mercury have started on the relationship front, they will both end the month in your financial sector. The Sun's return on 20th March is the point in each year when the solar spotlight will shift onto your financial situation and money matters, with Mercury returning on 10th March with the smart head for money needed to get your head in the game and to think on your feet.

Love & Romance

Because the Sun will always spend the first three weeks of March in your relationship sector, the solar spotlight is always on your relationships at this time of year, though with a sense from the start that this was something to be taken seriously. It was while the Sun was here last year that Saturn returned to begin a three year relationship boot camp. It had been three decades since Saturn was last here and this can bring challenges, as the hard taskmaster of the cosmos makes you confront rather than avoid issues and demands that you show up. However, unlike his last visit from 1993 to 1996, when Saturn returned last year, it was to find Neptune, the planet of dreams here.

Not only has Neptune been here since 2012 and was therefore well established, but he is the ruler of your relationship sector and this is his home. Saturn is Neptune's houseguest and has to abide by his rules and while a leopard doesn't change his spots and Saturn is still the hard taskmaster of the cosmos, he is working in partnership with dreamy Neptune. These planets couldn't be more different, but as they have been alone here for much of the last 12 months they have learnt to work together and by the time the Sun returned last month had given you the resolve to do whatever it takes for as long as it takes in order to turn dreams into reality.

Yet where Saturn and Neptune are focused on the big picture or the journey and will continue to until they both leave in early 2026, until leaving on 20th March the Sun is more focused on the here and now, as he shines a light on what you want from your relationships and what they need from you. Until he leaves on 10th March, Mercury will be doing what as the planet of communication he does best. The real magic will come when Venus, the planet of love returns on 12th March, followed by Mars on 23rd March. It is the warrior planet of the cosmos' return that will help you fight for what you want from your relationships and what they need from you. Meanwhile, running as a subtle thread throughout the month is the spirit of romance and adventure.


Business & Career

While the Sun and Mercury left your work sector last month and this took the solar spotlight off your work situation and job matters, you are not only still benefiting from their time here, but things have changed gear. Chances are things have not only become busier, but March could be one of the busiest months of the year. During the month that the Sun spent here, even though he returned on the same day as Pluto, the planet of change and transformation, it was more about observing and being aware. Mercury spent less than three weeks here but he showed you how to work smarter, while helping you to get your head in the game, ideas on the table and the communication lines open.

However, this was only the first step, with Venus having returned just before the Sun left and Mars a few days later. They are both using everything until now as a starting point, while until leaving on 10th March Venus will be focused on fuelling your job confidence, attracting opportunities and steering things in a lucrative direction. It is Mars who is making this a busy month, with the warrior planet of the cosmos having returned for his first visit in two years. Until leaving on 23rd March, Mars is not only firing up your work passions, fighting and competitive spirit but the drive to make things happen.

Fortunately, what is taking away a lot of the urgency is that with Pluto staying on it is less about what you can finish and more about what you can start. Almost exactly two months separate Mars' departure from your work sector on 23rd March and Jupiter's return to your career sector in May to begin your biggest year for professional growth and expansion in over a decade. With Pluto still in your work sector when Jupiter returns, they will not only work in partnership, but this makes what is happening or what you can invest now on the job front just a stepping stone. This also makes the Moon's visit to your work sector from 7th March to 9th March and to your career sector from 15th March to 17th March important days for paying attention and for being emotionally and intuitively engaged and aware.

Money

Even before the Sun returns to your financial sector on 20th March, the point in each year when the solar spotlight will always shift onto your financial situation and money matters, there is likely to be a growing sense of financial confidence. For the first time in 17 years, you have moved into the year with the North Node in your financial sector and until it leaves in January 2025 it will provide a constant sense of financial direction and purpose. Having returned shortly after Jupiter left last year, this has also helped to keep his quest for financial growth and expansion alive.

However, what has been responsible for a gradual rise in financial confidence since the year began is that the dwarf planet Eris, the warrior princess of the cosmos is not only in direct motion but as she picks up speed the motivation to take your financial power back is on the rise. However, until now the focus has been on the big picture, but that will change when Mercury returns on 10th March for what is normally a 14 to 15 day chance to get your head in the game and to think on your feet ahead of the Sun's return on 20th March. However, a retrograde turn early next month will keep this smart and intellectually savvy planet here for over two months.

This means that Mercury will still be here when Venus and Mars, the planets of money and drive return next month, with his return opening the doors to the most important months of the year on the financial front. This is the side of the financial fence where the focus is on what you do with and how you manage the money you have and while there are no planets on the income side of the financial fence, income matters are holding their own. Not only is having the South Node in your income sector helping to keep things balanced but there is a lot of support from the planets moving through your income sector. There could even be some breakthroughs when the Moon not only moves through your income sector from 25th March to 27th March but for a visit that will kick off with a lunar eclipse.

Health

The Sun's departure from your health sector last month may have taken the solar spotlight off your health needs, situation and matters, but this is still an active part of your chart, though with different influences this month. While the Sun was all about being aware and until he left Mercury's focus was on information and knowledge gathering, Venus and Mars are taking things in a different direction. Armed with that knowledge and awareness, Venus is fuelling a desire to look and feel good while Mars is giving you the motivation to turn those desires into reality. The Moon's return from 7th March to 9th March will give you a better read on their influence and on what your body is telling you.
