Weekly Astrology: Pisces New Moon, Aries Season Begins, and Mercury Finally Moves Direct
Okay bestie, the sky is doing that thing again where it decides to shift gears all at once.
If the past few weeks have felt foggy, emotionally intense, or like communication everywhere has been slightly off… you're not imagining it. Mercury retrograde has been doing its usual chaotic little dance.
And honestly? You can see that energy reflected in the world too. Conversations everywhere feel louder, people seem a little more reactive, and it’s like everyone is trying to figure out what direction things are heading next.
But this week marks a turning point.
We start the week in soft, reflective Pisces energy, which invites us to slow down and listen to our intuition. Midweek brings a New Moon in Pisces, which is basically the universe saying, “Okay… what do you actually want moving forward?”
Then by the end of the week everything shifts.
The Spring Equinox arrives, Aries season begins, and Mercury finally moves direct.
Translation? The fog starts lifting. The energy moves from emotional reflection into forward momentum.
So if you’ve been feeling like life has been paused in this weird in-between space lately… this week begins opening the next chapter.

Astrological Dates to Know This Week
Here are the key astrology moments during the weekly astrology forecast for March 15–21.
March 15: Mercury Retrograde Meets Mars
This transit can feel a little spicy. 🌶️
When Mercury retrograde connects with Mars, conversations can escalate quickly. You might notice impatience creeping in or someone around you suddenly feeling argumentative.
It’s one of those days where the urge to respond immediately is strong.
But honestly? Not every message deserves your energy.
Instead of reacting, pause. Step away. Vent in your journal or take a walk.
This transit teaches us something important: sometimes the most powerful response is restraint.
March 18: Pisces New Moon
Now this part of the week feels soft, intuitive, and a little magical. 🌙✨
The New Moon in Pisces invites us to slow down and listen to the quiet voice of our intuition.
Pisces energy isn’t interested in strict plans or rigid timelines. Instead, it opens the door to imagination, creativity, and spiritual insight.
This is the perfect moment to ask yourself:
What would I begin if I believed it was possible?
Use this New Moon for intention setting, meditation, creative journaling, or even a simple ritual with candles and incense.
Let yourself dream first. The details can come later.
March 20: Aries Season Begins
When the Sun enters Aries, everything changes. 🔥♈
After the emotional waters of Pisces season, Aries energy arrives like a burst of adrenaline. Suddenly there’s motivation, courage, and that spark that pushes us to start something new.
This moment also marks the Spring Equinox, which astrologically represents rebirth and fresh beginnings.
It’s basically the universe handing you a fresh page and saying:
Go ahead. Write something bold.
If you’ve been waiting for a sign to take action, Aries season might just be it.
Spring Equinox marks the astrological new year
Because of that, this is one of my favourite moments of the year to set intentions and map out the months ahead.
If you love working with astrology throughout the year, this is also the perfect time to start using an astrology planner to track transits, reflect on the Moon cycles, and stay aligned with the cosmic energy week by week.
I actually created an Astrology Calendar + Planner for this exact purpose. It helps you follow planetary movements, journal your reflections, and stay connected with the rhythms of astrology throughout the year.
And since the astrological new year is beginning now, it’s honestly the perfect time to start using one.
March 20: Mercury Stations Direct
Take a deep breath because Mercury retrograde officially ends this week.
Communication slowly becomes clearer, plans start making sense again, and those frustrating tech issues begin to calm down.
That said, Mercury moves slowly right after turning direct, so things may take a few days to fully settle.
Think of it like the moment after a storm when the clouds start parting and sunlight finally breaks through.
Relief is on the way.
March 21: Moon in Taurus
After a week of emotional and energetic shifts, the Moon in Taurus brings a calming influence.
Taurus reminds us to slow down and reconnect with the physical world.
Good food. Soft blankets. Nature walks. Music that feels like a hug.
This energy helps us turn inspiration into something tangible.
If Aries season lights the spark, Taurus helps you build something lasting from it.
Theme of the Week
From Reflection to Courage
This week moves in two phases.
First we reflect.
Then we move.
The Pisces New Moon invites emotional honesty. Pisces is deeply intuitive energy, which means answers may come through feelings rather than logic.
You might notice realizations surfacing quietly this week.
Maybe something clicks in a conversation.
Maybe you suddenly understand a situation differently.
Maybe you realize you've been holding onto something that no longer fits the life you're trying to build.
And honestly? That kind of realization seems to be happening everywhere right now.
On a collective level, people across the world are questioning systems, expectations, and old ways of doing things. The feeling of “something needs to change” is very strong right now.
That’s Pisces energy doing its thing.
But once Aries season begins, the energy shifts dramatically.
Aries is the sign of courage and initiative. It's the energy that says, “Okay, now that you see the truth… what are you going to do about it?”
So this week asks for both honesty and bravery.
Guidance for the Week
Let yourself reflect early in the week.
Pay attention to the emotional insights that appear. They might be quieter than you expect, but they can reveal exactly what needs to change.
Then when the energy shifts toward the end of the week, allow yourself to take the first step forward.
You don't need the entire plan.
Just the next step.
Crystal of the Week
Fluorite
If there were ever a week that called for a clarity crystal, this would be it. And that’s exactly why fluorite feels like the perfect companion right now.
Think of fluorite as the energetic equivalent of opening a window in a stuffy room. It helps clear mental fog, organize scattered thoughts, and bring your focus back when life starts feeling a little chaotic.
After weeks of Mercury retrograde confusion, mixed signals, and communication hiccups, fluorite gently helps restore mental clarity and intuitive balance. It’s especially supportive when you're trying to sort through ideas, make decisions, or reconnect with your inner voice.
One of the beautiful things about fluorite is that it works on both the mind and intuition at the same time. It sharpens your thinking while also helping you trust your instincts, which makes it a wonderful crystal for a week where we’re transitioning from dreaming to taking action.
In other words, it helps you move from:
“I have a million ideas and no direction” to “Okay, this feels like the right next step.”
Fluorite is also known for absorbing and clearing stagnant energy. If Mercury retrograde left you feeling drained, overwhelmed, or mentally cluttered, working with fluorite can feel like hitting a reset button for your energy field.
If you’re setting intentions during the Pisces New Moon or reflecting on what you want to begin during Aries season, this crystal can help bring your thoughts into alignment with your deeper truth.
Tarot Card of the Week
The Star ⭐
The tarot card that reflects this week's astrology beautifully is The Star.
The Star represents healing, renewal, and hope after difficult experiences. It appears when things have been uncertain but a new sense of possibility is beginning to emerge.
And honestly, that energy feels very present right now.
Globally and personally, many people are realizing that old systems, old habits, or old expectations may not work the way they used to.
The Star reminds us that clarity often arrives after chaos.
Even when the future feels uncertain, there is still guidance leading us forward.
This week begins restoring that sense of hope.
