March Horoscopes

STAR OF THE MONTH

PISCES

19 FEBRUARY - 20 MARCH

For the best part of the year, Saturn gifts Pisceans with a smart head for money. Financial negotiations should be nothing short of inspirational. Romantically, though, there's not much stirring until May, but surprisingly, you don't mind. Through June and July, a training course enables you to earn as you learn. September asks that you make important adjustments - to break free or find a way to grow. A few weeks later, Pisceans confront the darker side of their character. By October, some of life's pressures ease. December again holds the promise of romance. Express how you really feel, then watch as superficialities fade to make room for permanence.

ARIES

21 MARCH – 20 APRIL

For the next two years, disciplinarian Saturn shows you who you actually are, as opposed to what you once aspired to be. Any discrepancy between the two may prompt a sobering review of your accomplishments. Should some areas of your life reach their natural conclusion, deal with any loss or disappointment quietly. The upside: you emerge a stronger, more aware individual who can better cope with life's idiosyncrasies.

TAURUS

21 APRIL – 20 MAY

Forget about wanting a quiet life - it won't happen soon. This month you're swept along by high drama with very little time for rest. This turns out to be a mixed blessing. On the one hand, you're encouraged to do what you do well, but having this much licence gives your less responsible side free rein. The trick lies in balancing the two. That means dividing your time more evenly between work and play.

GEMINI

21 MAY – 21 JUNE

If you find yourself standing at a financial crossroads and wondering why you've never taken that deviation to the left, now's your chance. Pluto continues to support financial detours - so it's a month to turn gambles into triumphs. Mars, too, waltzes in and out of your chart. Money matters require both give and take. Don't be shy with your generosity, Gemini - what you give will all come back - and more.

CANCER

22 JUNE – 22 JULY

Jupiter has settled in your career sector, where it remains until 2024. You can now move ahead with a wish list rather than being constrained within a tight budget. Now's the time to throw off inhibitions, indulge your dreams and look forward without fear. If you've been stuck in a dead-end rut, plan your great escape. It's been said that a small number of individuals can make big changes, and you'll do just that in the months to come.

LEO

23 JULY – 22 AUGUST

Yours is a straight-down-the-line sign - never afraid to tell it like it is. You want only the very best, and you intend to get it in March. Your heart is pounding, your mind is racing - and you're ready for change. The cosmos also introduces much needed playfulness and the kind of good fortune that affords a few luxuries. Even in your love life, you dare to be sassier. For the first time in ages, you truly feel free.

VIRGO

23 AUGUST – 22 SEPTEMBER

This month's full moon on the 7th has plenty of sway, meaning you're likely to act without considering the consequences. If you suddenly start to spend money recklessly or dream about an off-limits flame, blame it on lunar effects. Just don't become too moonstruck. This phase is fleeting. When it's passed - you may have regrettably burned a bridge or two. Professionally, you're more in control.

LIBRA

23 SEPTEMBER – 22 OCTOBER

We each come into this world with our own unique talents and special tasks to perform. And this month, it's your turn to shine. March highlights career and business travel. The time's also right to make a major purchase or start saving for something special. Perhaps even consider a down payment on a property or a special luxury. You may spend a little extra, but don't settle for second best.

SCORPIO

23 OCTOBER – 21 NOVEMBER

Somehow you've managed to persuade a guardian angel to put in a bit of overtime on your behalf. Actually, it's more likely that you have a team of them working around the clock - along with the support of friends and family. Finally, here's a month when there's little to lose and much to gain. If you've been feeling overloaded, you're now more inclined to review those long hours. Leave plenty of time for play.

SAGITTARIUS

22 NOVEMBER – 21 DECEMBER

Recent times have wrought a ridiculous number of working hours from you, often taking you one step forward and two steps back. Thankfully, March promises better control of your money, with more freedom to spend or save. In terms of career - your natural talents come to the fore - perseverance, intelligence and creativity. Think pay rise or promotion. No longer on the back foot, you more confidently stride forward.

CAPRICORN

22 DECEMBER – 19 JANUARY

After walking on financial quicksand for so long, this month brings you comfortably back on solid ground. You're also better able to appreciate how previous setbacks served you. With this kind of hindsight, you can turn past mistakes into future triumphs. Ongoing relationships also seem to enjoy a fresh lease on life. Even recent health issues should start to ease. Find what you love doing, and enjoy it.

AQUARIUS

20 JANUARY – 18 FEBRUARY

A relentless Mars sends you into a work frenzy this month. Your mind overflows with brilliant thoughts, and you're bursting with imaginative new ideas. You'll be busy dreaming up new ventures even if your regular work involves little creativity. The only downside is a sense of agitation after the 25th. Take a break if you can. It's only fair to rest a tired and, perhaps, overwrought body.
