Astro Magic for March 2024

The bulk of the month is beginning the process of preparing for the astrological New Year, as the Sun moves into the sign of Aries on March 20th (5:24 PM EST/2:24 PM AM PST). 

After two months of relative astrological ease, the seeds you planted will sprout, the air will start to warm up, and the promise of a fresh start is on the way.

Since Aries is a fire sign, it’s time to focus on living our best lives and creating a path to make that happen. So, leave the past behind and focus on your intentions.

5 Magical Ways to Make the Most of Aries Season

1. Fire Magic: Do you remember when you were a child and how you blew out a birthday candle? Did you make a wish? Guess what? You were doing fire magic, and candle magic is one of its chief tools. You can use fire magic any time of the year, but it’s exceptionally potent while the Sun is in a fire sign (Aries, Leo, Sagittarius). Other forms of fire magic are scrying, burning incense, and charging objects by the light of the Sun. Use fire magic if you are looking for a boost of energy or a bit of gumption.

2. Remove Obstacles: Aries is ruled by Mars, the warrior god. Mars likes to fight, bash, and break things apart. Likewise, you can use the season to remove obstacles from your life. So, if you feel that a wall (in the form of a person or situation) is preventing you from getting what you want, use the season to BUST through it. Pro tip: Sometimes, that obstacle can be you!

3. Start New Projects: Since we are starting an astrological New Year, it’s time to create new things. Aries season gives you the energy, conviction, and boldness to initiate, push forward, and get results. Make sure you use this energy while it is available.

4. Personal Power Magic: After 30+ years of doing astrology readings and life coaching therapy, I’ve come to understand that one of the problems many people face is that they do not own their power. Their spouses control them, parents, children, and employers, and many fear social reprisals. Not claiming your power can lead to depression and a lack of satisfaction in life. You can use Aries season to take your power back and follow your path. This will lead to personal fulfillment, joy, and empowerment.

5. Breaking Free of Negative Influences: Breaking free of negative influences is a close cousin to removing obstacles and personal power. Sometimes, dysfunctional dynamics can become an important feature in relationships (all of them), and it’s hard to change something once it becomes dynamic. However, many people may need to break away from toxic situations or toxic people, and Aries season can help you do that.

Lunar Magic

New Moon in Pisces 

The New Moon occurs this month in the sign of Pisces on March 10, 2024. This is an excellent New Moon if you need to do healing work, connect with your spiritual allies, find meaning and joy in your life, or supercharge creative projects. You can also use this New Moon to examine your dreams or do divination.

Lunar Eclipse in Libra

The monthly lunation cycles occur in four phases, but for simplicity in the astrology forecast, I focus on the two most important.  The cycle begins at the New Moon and reaches its peak at the Full Moon.  After the moment the Full Moon occurs, we begin preparing for the next New Moon.  However, the astrological purposes of the Full Moon (it's an opposition aspect) reflect the challenges and obstacles that may be limiting the development of the New Moon.

This month, the Full Moon occurs in the sign of Libra on March 25, 2024.  Libra is about relationships – all of them.  So, we face the people in our lives that may be limiting our growth.  This is a propitious time to rid yourself of relationships that are not feeding your soul or assisting your personal growth. Since Libra is also one of the signs that governs legal matters, resolving potential legal hassles is also recommended.  

Since this is an eclipse, I do not recommend any aggressive magic.  Instead, focus on protection-based spells.
