General Daily Insight for March 22, 2024
There is nothing wrong with a gentle approach. The Moon begins the day in outgoing Leo before slipping into methodical Virgo, where it will make an unusual quincunx to the Sun, recently arrived in Aries. The cosmic speed limit drastically drops, however, when warrior Mars enters dreamy Pisces at 7:47 pm EDT. We’ll be able to approach our goals with more flexibility. During this cycle we should all make a point to listen to our intuition, trusting that it won’t lead us astray.
Aries
March 21 – April 19
There’s no need to push. In fact, you’ll get further by taking it easy as your ruler Mars slips into your sleepy 12th house for the first time in two years. This phase is much more about removing that which no longer serves you from your life, as opposed to adding unfamiliar things or chasing hasty ambitions. This period can feel rather slow, but it is an important closing chapter in your current cycle. The past must end so you can enter the future.
Taurus
April 20 – May 20
Your social obligations take on extra importance at present. Everyone seems to want a piece of you as Mars marches into your 11th House of Friendships to hype you up. This is a very fun cycle, but it can also put you in such high demand that it may feel like you barely have any time for yourself. Be sure to make regular spaces for personal time and self-care. You can only support others for so long if you aren’t supporting yourself first.
Gemini
May 21 – June 20
The finish line is calling your name. Your ambitions are at an all-time high as red-hot Mars bolts into the top of your chart, giving you an extra boost to pick up the pace and show people how it is done. You may be busier than usual at work or with various projects, but the effort you put in now can prove especially rewarding. Don’t shy away from rolling up your sleeves and burning the midnight oil. Prove to everyone else what you’re capable of!
Cancer
June 21 – July 22
A renewed sense of wanderlust is broadening your wingspan. The world is beckoning you to soar further than ever as action planet Mars flies into your 9th House of Distant Horizons, turning your eye toward expansive ideas. This transit is all about exploring intriguing and unusual ideas, whether that means traveling to far-off countries or returning to school to further your education. Even if all you can do is check out an interesting book from the library, do your best to indulge your curiosity!
Leo
July 23 – August 22
Sometimes the only way forward is through. You may feel like you’re entering a strange portal as Mars moves into your 8th House of Transformation, initiating a rare cycle that only comes around every couple of years. This period is all about becoming firmer in your foundations so you can turn around and be your best self when interacting with others. This may not sound very exciting at first, but the rewards on the other side should be worth the effort.
Virgo
August 23 – September 22
The best way to get ahead at this time is by partnering up. Energetic Mars is bounding into your 7th House of Associations, putting an extra emphasis on the plus-ones in your life. It’s probable that more people than usual will present themselves to boost you in your preferred direction, whether they’re navigating platonic, romantic, or professional territory with you. Remember that relationships are a two-way street — be willing to give as much as you get from this powerful cycle.
Libra
September 23 – October 22
It’s time to break a sweat! Action planet Mars is running into your 6th House of Wellness, hitting the starting bell on a phase when you can upgrade your health and fitness to a whole new level. Whether you’re currently a couch potato or already a superstar athlete, there is always room for improvement, so don’t just sit there when you can become a better version of yourself. That said, avoid pushing push too hard, too soon — you don’t want to sprain anything.
Scorpio
October 23 – November 21
You are entering an incredibly positive period, Scorpio. There is a special emphasis on enjoying yourself as Mars enters your 5th House of Happiness, touching down there for the first time in two years. This cycle is all about expressing yourself, whether that means letting your artistic side out to play or spending more time with people who bring out the best in you. Work won’t completely evaporate — still, if possible, consider taking a few days off to appreciate this energy.
Sagittarius
November 22 – December 21
It’s not your imagination if your home feels like more of a battle zone than usual. That’s not to say you need to batten down the hatches, but you might have to put out some fires with warrior Mars parading into your domestic sector. This can create friction with roommates or relatives, but if you want to be productive, try turning your focus toward your physical abode. A new DIY or decorating project will be the perfect way to release that energy.
Capricorn
December 22 – January 19
One thing after another is landing on your plate! Everything seems to be happening at once as Mars jogs into your chatty 3rd house, stirring up all sorts of activities. Between meeting friends for lunch, keeping up with all your appointments, and finding time for yourself, life may feel like an unstoppable amusement park ride. Try to set specific goals or ambitions for yourself during this cycle, or else it can pass you by without you making the most of the cosmic hype.
Aquarius
January 20 – February 18
Get ready to make it rain! Energetic Mars is leaping into your salary sector, bolstering your ability to get serious about your finances and the actions you must take to ensure their security. This is great for improving your net worth, especially if you’re searching for a bit of extra earnings, but be wary of spending your money like there’s a hole in your pocket. Mars can stir up expenses, so establish a doable budget while the red planet is influencing your cash.
Pisces
February 19 – March 20
It’s all systems go, Pisces! Motivator Mars is blasting into your sign for the first time in two years, lighting you up with a drive you may not have felt in ages. This is the perfect moment to refresh and reset your ambitions and desires, because Mars will give you all the energy you need to reach them sooner than you could have ever imagined. That said, don’t neglect time to rest, since hosting Mars makes burning out all too easy.
