Love is complicated in March — expect a few bumps but also emotional breakthroughs along the way!

After all, it’s not every day that both Venus and Mercury retrograde in the same month, let alone in the same passionate Fire sign. Still, if you consciously lean into the energy, you’ll be pleasantly surprised — uncover hidden desires and reconnect with your sense of self-worth.

On March 1, Venus will station retrograde in Aries, presenting you with a passionate supercut of your relationships — expect the return of an ex or an old flame stirring up unfinished business.

In Aries, the love planet is fiercely independent and audacious in its approach, making its romantic experiences all the more exhilarating.

This is followed by Mercury retrograde in Aries on March 15,  adding fuel to the fire, which could, in turn, lead to misunderstandings and delays in romantic communication. (No, it isn’t ideal to immerse yourself in a brand-new connection.)

However, don’t be surprised if your grade-school crush suddenly appears out of nowhere. Feelings of nostalgia aren’t uncommon with both Venus and Mercury retrograde.

A total lunar eclipse in Virgo (March 14) could also bring intense revelations around the dynamic of your connections, urging you to release what no longer serves you. Steer clear of relationships that lead you to overthink your approach or place in the connection — the North Node in Pisces says surrender.

After the sun’s conjunction with taskmaster Saturn — bringing uncomfortable reality checks to the forefront of your relationship — on March 12, the sun will meet with Neptune, making relationship dynamics equally intriguing and deceptive.

Although we’re more likely to idealize feelings under this dream synergy, it’s important to use your discernment. On the other hand, if you’re already coupled, this is your cue to turn up the fantasy and romance!

Venus will eventually re-enter Pisces on March 27, which could potentially soften things after retrograding through Aries’ fiery territory.

That said, if you decide to rehash things with an ex, this could inspire you to make way for more compassion and tenderness in your relationship.

A solar eclipse in Aries on March 29 could rev your engines and spark a bold new chapter in love.

Aries (March 20-April 19)

Horoscope Sign Aries
Horoscope Sign Aries

March will have you revisiting matters of the heart in a big way, Aries.

With Venus retrograde in your sign starting on March 1, you’ll be reflecting on everything from your personal desires to how you present yourself in relationships. You may also reconnect with an ex or feel compelled to confront unresolved feelings from the past.

Mercury will station retrograde in your sign on March 15, making communication around love, romance and values a bit tricky — don’t be surprised if you find yourself stumbling over your words or misinterpreting intentions.

Although the sun’s debut in your sign (March 20) presents you with a fresh burst of confidence to pursue what you desire, Venus retrograde’s ingress back into Pisces — your 12th house of healing and unconscious patterns — on March 27 challenges you to go inward, and tend to deeper aspects or issues surrounding your relationships.

Consider this an opportunity to clear the emotional clutter and make peace with the past. This is especially true when considering the solar eclipse in your sign on March 29, as it paves the way for a brand-new chapter in your life.

Despite being a month of deep reflection, it’s also one where you can reclaim your passion and heart’s desires.

Taurus (April 19-May 20)

Horoscope Sign Taurus
Horoscope Sign Taurus

This month won’t be smooth sailing, but it can still be productive, Taurus.

Your celestial ruler, Venus, is stationing retrograde on March 1, backspinning through Aries and your 12th house of secrets, dreams and unconscious patterns.

In addition to reflecting on the past, you’re feeling called to release emotional baggage and what no longer serves you — even if that means reconnecting with an ex for closure and healing.

A total lunar eclipse in Virgo (March 14) brings significant clarity and insight into your love life, but this full-circle moment could take up to six months to manifest.

Then on March 27, Venus retrograde will re-enter Pisces and your 11th house of associations, community affairs and individual freedom, shifting your focus to friendship and group dynamics, which could stir up complex emotions in your love life.

Reflect on the emotional attachments hindering your progress and relationship security. Make room for more authenticity in your love life.

Gemini (May 20-June 20)

Horoscope Sign Gemini
Horoscope Sign Gemini

You’re having an epiphany about who and what truly matters to you this month, Gemini.

Blast from the past? March is stirring things up and it’s all thanks to Venus and your planetary ruler, Mercury, retrograde.

Activating your 11th house of community affairs and social media, you may find yourself reconsidering the dynamics in your social circle — old crushes or unresolved tensions with an ex-lover could also resurface, prompting you to reconsider the foundation of your connections.

The messenger planet will also kick off its retrograde journey through Aries on March 15, adding to the air of misunderstanding and confusion that already surrounds your 11th house of friendship groups. Are you ready to confront someone about a past issue?

This month’s total lunar eclipse will touch down on your fourth house of home and emotional foundations, which calls for a significant shift in your personal life, whether emotionally or in terms of your romantic connections.

Emotions will run high, but the effects of this super potent lunation could take up to half a year to manifest.

On March 27, Venus retrograde will re-enter Pisces and your bossy 10th house of career, traditions and public persona — is your significant other supportive of your professional endeavors and vice versa?

Reflect on whether your connection makes sense when considering the bigger picture and your relationship in the long term.

Cancer (June 20-July 22)

Horoscope Sign Cancer
Horoscope Sign Cancer

Are you confident in your sense of authority, Cancer?

Single or already smitten in love, March presents you with the opportunity to reconsider your approach to love and romance so you can take your power back.

On March 1, Venus retrograde will ignite your bossy 10th house of reputation and career goals, urging you to reflect on whether your relationship and connections fit into the grand scheme of things.

Does this “situationship” or commitment support the trajectory of your career and traditions?

For some, it could be the other way around — work and responsibilities in your personal life could take precedence over your love life.

On March 14, a total lunar eclipse will shake up your communication sector, bringing insight and revelations to your immediate surroundings. This could lead to a conversation that helps you clarify your needs and desires.

Mercury stationing retrograde the following day is very fitting, considering the usual misunderstandings and delays brought on by this astronomical phenomenon. The key is to steer clear of expectations and assumptions — communicate confidently and clearly.

By March 27, Venus retrograde will slip back into your expansive ninth house of adventure and self-discovery, urging you to reflect on your values and beliefs around love — what you thought you wanted in a partner may no longer align with the person you’re becoming.

Leo (July 22-Aug. 22)

Horoscope Sign Leo
Horoscope Sign Leo

You’re coming to terms with what you really want for yourself and your future, Leo.

Get ready! March will challenge your approach to love and intimacy, especially when it comes to the depth of your connection and your long-term desires.

It begins with Venus retrograde in Aries, activating your ninth house of philosophy, expansion and self-discovery, so you may find yourself reconsidering your values and whether your significant other supports your goals.

Expect past lovers or unresolved emotional baggage to surface but still, it’s an opportunity to clarify your feelings and reflect on who and what you’ve officially outgrown.

Then, on March 14, a total lunar eclipse in Virgo will touch down on your stability-seeking second house of comfort, finances and values, bringing insight and revelations around your sense of self-worth and personal stability.

It takes two to tango, and rest assured, this is something you’ll be coming to terms with once Venus and Mercury retrograde re-enter your eighth house of intimacy and themes of “give and take” — is there a return of investment here?

As the month progresses, you’ll be pushed to let go of old attachments and open up to new possibilities in love. Don’t be afraid to venture outside of your comfort zone.

Virgo (Aug. 22-Sept. 22)

Horoscope Sign Virgo
Horoscope Sign Virgo

Ready or not, Virgo — here comes change!

The first eclipse season of the year has your name on it… and well, your love life is no exception.

With Venus retrograde activating your eighth house of bonding and transformation, everything from past connections to issues surrounding intimacy is bound to resurface.

Themes of trust and reciprocity are also prominent. It’s time to reflect on what you value most in a partner and whether your current or past loves genuinely respect your needs.

The total lunar eclipse in your sign occurs on March 14, triggering a pivotal moment of release and renewal. This super potent lunation asks you to let go of self-limiting beliefs and unhealthy attachments in your love life.

While it isn't recommended to manifest during an eclipse, these shifts could take up to six months to manifest in your personal life.

On March 15, your celestial ruler, Mercury, will join Venus on its retrograde journey through Aries, bringing a series of hiccups and misunderstandings in your relationships. Read the room and try to avoid signing important contracts or making significant commitments at this time.

Venus retrograde will eventually slip back into Pisces and your seventh house of agreements, compromise and significant others on March 27. This is your cue to clarify the balance of give and take (or the lack thereof) in your one-on-one connections.

Libra (Sept. 22-Oct. 22)

Horoscope Sign Libra
Horoscope Sign Libra

This month, love is sour but also sweet, Libra.

Leave it to Venus retrograde (your planetary ruler) to shake things up in more ways than one, but it’s for the best.

The month begins with the love planet kicking off its retrograde journey through Aries and your seventh house of agreements, compromise and significant others. With your one-on-one relationships taking center stage, expect to revisit old dynamics and unresolved issues.

Exes may or may not make a quick cameo, but again, don’t fret — this is your window of opportunity for closure.

So much so, a total lunar eclipse in Virgo will touch down on your 12th house of endings, healing and surrender on March 14, making this all the more fitting for your personal growth. It isn’t recommended to partake in any manifestation rituals, but the eclipse effects are still inevitable.

The following day, Mercury will join Venus retrograde in Aries, fueling the fire in your relationship dynamics, which also makes communication trickier than usual. This means that while you’re compelled to clap back or deal with confrontation head-on, it may not go as planned.

If you’re indecisive about the future of your relationship, clarity arrives with the sun’s debut in Aries on March 20, followed by a solar eclipse in the same sign on March 29. This offers you a fresh start in love — make sure you take the time to release what’s been holding you back first.

Scorpio (Oct. 22-Nov. 21)

Horoscope Sign Scorpio
Horoscope Sign Scorpio

You’ve got a lot going on in March, Scorpio — will there be room for love?

It begins with Venus retrograde shaking up your sixth house of daily rituals and due diligence, so you may find yourself re-evaluating how your relationship fits into the bigger picture of your life.

If old issues resurface, they will likely revolve around your work-life balance and how this influences your connection with a significant other. Warning: Venus in Aries isn’t the most tactful of transits, so take a breather — it’s easy to lose your patience.

On March 15, a total lunar eclipse in Virgo will shake up your 11th house of associations, community and sense of belonging in the world. This could bring revelations about your social circles and aspirations, and how this could be impacting your life life and romantic relationships.

This is followed by Mercury retrograde, joining Venus in your busy sixth house and eventually re-entering Pisces and your fifth house of love on March 29. If an old flame appears out of nowhere, use your discernment and don’t let this take away from your hard work and day-to-day rituals.

Similarly, when considering the sun’s close proximity to dreamy Neptune in your love sector — specifically on March 19 — it’s important to be mindful of your rose-colored glasses. It doesn’t hurt to take them off from time to time, as you’re more likely to become swept away by illusions.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22–Dec. 21)

Horoscope Sign Sagittarius
Horoscope Sign Sagittarius

Submit to your passions, but consider the foundation you’re creating in the process, Sagittarius.

With love in the spotlight this month and Venus retrograde activating your fifth house of romance, you’re called to reevaluate everything from unfulfilled desires to unresolved relationship issues. What truly lights you up?

With Mercury (celestial ruler of your relationship sector) also retrograde in this area of your chart, you may struggle with expressing your feelings clearly and navigating misunderstandings in your relationship.

Don’t be discouraged — retrogrades are for reflecting, reviewing and reassessing the situation at hand. After all, a total lunar eclipse in Virgo will bring your focus to themes of career and reputation on March 15.

If anything, this could lead to some tension between your professional goals and personal life, but it’s an opportunity to discover what’s been hindering your sense of authority.

On March 20, the sun will debut in Aries, energizing and revitalizing your fifth house of love and passion, so you’ll feel a burst of energy and confidence to dive back into fun and love. Still, it isn’t recommended to start anything new, at least until Venus stations direct on Apr. 12.

Although the effects of an eclipse can take up to six months to manifest, a solar eclipse on March 29 offers a fresh start in your love life as you embrace the changes and newfound clarity headed your way.

Capricorn (Dec. 21-Jan. 19)

Horoscope Sign Capricorn
Horoscope Sign Capricorn

The love life you crave depends on the relationship you have with yourself, Capricorn.

Single or already attached, the astrology of March will have you diving deep into your emotional world, especially when it comes to matters of home, family and your personal foundations.

Starting with Venus retrograde in Aries, this will touch down on your fourth house, signaling a time to reflect on everything from your emotional security to relationship patterns in your early upbringing. This could bring up old family issues or past loves that need closure before you can move forward.

A total lunar eclipse in Virgo will charge up your expansive ninth house of self-discovery on March 14, offering you a chance to release any beliefs or emotional attachments that no longer serve you.

This is followed by Mercury retrograde in Aries, joining Venus in your fourth house, intensifying the dynamic of self-reflection but still, this could make communication with loved ones feel more challenging.

A solar eclipse in this area of your chart on March 29 paves the way for a brand-new beginning that could come to fruition between now and the next six months.

Aquarius (Jan. 19-Feb. 18)

Horoscope Sign Aquarius
Horoscope Sign Aquarius

Aquarius, have you ever considered how your communication style influences your love life?

This month is all about reconsidering your approach to romance and how you communicate your feelings, which is especially fitting with Venus retrograde in Aries shaking up your third house of communication, thought processes and immediate surroundings.

There will be a focus on revisiting old conversations, rekindling connections or even clarifying past misunderstandings in your love life. This retrograde could even bring back exes or spark deep reflection on how you express affection.

Mercury will eventually join Venus (March 15), making communication feel like an uphill battle — watch for miscommunication or feeling like your feelings aren’t being heard. More importantly, pay attention, as something could become clear to you at this time.

Meanwhile, a total lunar eclipse in Virgo will charge up your eighth house of intimacy and soul-to-soul bonds on March 14, bringing emotional and financial revelations that could affect your close connections. This is the beginning of an eclipse story that will continue throughout 2025 and 2026.

As the sun moves into Aries and your third house on March 20, you’ll get a fresh burst of energy to express yourself, but be mindful of rushing into big decisions without first reflecting on what truly matters in your heart.

Take the time to clear the air and make sure you’re on the same page with your partner.

Pisces (Feb. 18-March 20)

Horoscope Sign Pisces
Horoscope Sign Pisces

This month, your love life calls for recalibration, self-reflection and finding a deeper connection to yourself, Pisces.

March’s astrology challenges you to reconsider your values and approach to romance, especially when it comes to self-worth and personal desires.

With Venus retrograde in Aries and your second house as of March 1, love and finances could become tangled, prompting you to reevaluate what you truly need in a relationship — are you compromising too much?

Mercury will join Venus retrograde on March 15, triggering misunderstandings around your personal values and how they relate to your love life.

All the while, a total lunar eclipse in Virgo will ignite your seventh house of agreements, compromise and significant others, pushing you to release any unhealthy dynamics or unrealistic expectations in partnerships.

Then, on March 27 — after the sun’s debut in Aries — Venus retrograde will slip back into your sign, signaling a time to reflect on your romantic needs and heart’s desires before making any big moves or decisions.
