Aries

No matter how many curveballs are thrown your way, it’s important to keep the faith and know you're heading you're supposed to go. Progress is all about being able to get through the process of change — even if you have to take baby steps to get to your destination.

Taurus

Minimize the amount of energy you're giving to others this March. Instead, focus on self love. Some may call your newfound attitude selfish, but there's a time for putting yourself first. Be the main character in your life story this month.

Gemini

Trying to appease your boss or colleagues with words of flattery won’t cut it this month. The people in your life are looking for receipts about your performance — whether in the emotional sphere or the professional. Though you're known for your wit, sweet talking won't help you out of situations this month. Better to try and avoid trouble entirely.

Cancer

You’re never too old to learn something new. Challenging as it may seem at first, open your mind to new philosophies or ways of doing things. By doing so, you may find just the tidbit that will help you on your personal journey. Lean into the information coming your way. Maybe it's there for a reason.

Leo

Going with the flow isn’t necessarily your style. You prefer to know every step of the process with hyper-specific directions and information. Your fixed nature will resist the cosmic push to transform. This month, you may be confronted with the fact that change itself is a fact of life. Even if you're not looking a personal evolution at the moment, the stars have different plans for you.

Virgo

The energy that you’re receiving is a mirror to what you’re giving (or vice versa). Be aware of how you are treating others and making them feel on a daily basis. The more love and kindness you share with those you care about, the more abundant your heart will be. Yes, it's possible to make your heart grow a size.

Libra

Finding balance in life is essential. After all, you don’t want to give so much to your job so that you miss out on the important moments of your personal life. If that means forgoing one or two work events — then so be it. Nothing is more precious than the world you’ve created with those you love. If it comes between family time and getting your hustle on, be sure to choose wisely.

Scorpio

Your intuition will be off balance in the weeks ahead, which is why it’s best to think before jumping into any situation. Ask friends and family for advice if need be. They’ll be able to offer suggestions and insights that may not have occurred to you. Then, you can take a calculated risk, keeping your higher self in mind.

Sagittarius

The desire to understand yourself on a deeper level may make you seek out alternative approaches of healing. As you excavate the past, you may find that there's more there than can be healed in a short amount of time. Think of "you" as a long-term project.

Capricorn

Take a step back and decompress. You don’t have to take on every project and task to prove your worth. Sometimes it’s best to enjoy the moments as they pass. Your challenge this month? Relaxing!

Aquarius

Recognize that you deserve real and true love. This message is for both coupled and single water-bearers alike. By letting go of old hurts, you'll be able to hold a more open space for others. Allowing yourself to be happy will prove to be a game changer in how you approach others as well as yourself.

Pisces

March may be an especially lucky month for you Pisces. You may find that people in your inner and outer circles bring you opportunities in the coming weeks. You may get the feeling that your destiny is taking shape around you.
