Your Monthly Love Horoscope for March 2023
Aries
Aries You’re a daring, risk-taking love machine as the month starts with passionate Venus positioned in your confident first house. You do have feelings, but you like to express them in a very physical way.
On March 14, your ambitious ruler Mars squares off against sometimes lazy Neptune, sending out low-energy vibes and surrounding your love life with suspicion and deceit. It’s hard to work though certain relationship issues or start something new with this negativity filling you with doubt.
Responsive Venus leaves the excitement of your fire sign to pair up with set-in-its-ways Taurus on the sixteenth, bringing up the same old arguments and raising control issues. Giving out ultimatums and making threats never works in your favor, Aries.
Conversational Mercury enters your direct sign on March 18, and the sun follows two days later, infusing you with the confidence to be your true self and say exactly what’s on your mind. It takes an equally strong person to love your strong, opinionated (and sometimes rude) personality, but they’re out there. If you haven’t already found them, don’t lose hope.
Forceful Mars is softened by sensitive, thoughtful, touchy Cancer on the twenty-fifth. Sex should take more time now. Enjoy every minute.
Taurus
Your month begins with money-focused Venus, your planetary leader, being strongly influenced by fiery Aries and your twelfth house of karma and sacrifice, so you should be seeing ways to make your financial situation work for your love life. Finally spend that nest egg you’ve been saving with your partner or buy your crush a luxurious gift that leaves no doubt how you feel about them.
You struggle less during the Venus-Jupiter conjunction on March 1, and as love becomes a little easier, you’re able to let down your guard and truly enjoy these blissful feelings. It’s been a long time since you’ve been this happy, Taurus. You deserve it.
On the seventh, ambitious Saturn makes a big jump from Aquarius to Pisces, targeting your house of future dream fulfillment and socialization. How can the people in your life help you succeed beyond your wildest dreams? Your love life is full of possibilities when you connect with others who have your best interests at heart.
Tender Venus becomes quite comfy when she pairs up with your tactile sign on March 16, and your sense of choice now is definitely touch. Book a couples massage or take a date to a pottery class. With all of your senses heightened now, activities like these are extremely pleasurable.
Gemini
You have some very lofty career ambitions as Mercury travels into dreamy Pisces and your tenth house on March 2, but where does your love life fit in? While your thoughts for the month are mainly on your job, you welcome romantic distraction. Escaping into a fantasy world is necessary when things get a little too real.
On the sixteenth, a dreamy Mercury-Neptune conjunction encourages you to dive into the deep end of spirituality, secrets, and the occult. This is an exciting time to delve into the unknown with a current or potential partner. Sharing an eerie or miraculous experience strengthens your bond.
Your quick-thinking leader Mercury partners with fast-moving, spontaneous Aries on March 18, so you have no filter for the next several weeks. Saying exactly what’s on your mind is refreshing to some people and a huge turnoff to others. Pay attention to a partner’s or date’s body language to see if they’re digging what you’re saying or not.
Great news could be on the way during the Mercury-Jupiter conjunction on the twenty-eighth, but just let things happen naturally instead of trying to guess what the next moment might bring. Love’s little surprises can put a big smile on your face during this fortunate aspect.
Cancer
You experience a couple days of your cosmic leader Luna moving through your artistic, imaginative sign early in March. Use these creative emotional vibes on the first and second to make an inviting space for current and potential lovers to be nourished and nurtured by your calming presence.
The moon is full in task-oriented Virgo on March 7, immediately sending you into action mode. Your love language now is doing things for the people you care about, so you’re surprised when someone alludes to the fact that you’re smothering them. It might take a while for your feelings to go back to normal.
The controlling vibrations from the Venus-Pluto square on March 16 raise tensions, especially if a current or potential relationship has been experiencing a lot of drama. Your insecurity can show itself in odd ways now, Cancer. Look for the root of it before it gets out of hand.
You become more assertive and action oriented when powerful Mars enters your first house on the twenty-fifth, but you’re still sensitive on the inside. You’re fierce when it comes to defending bae or a long-time crush but not so much when someone attacks you personally. There’s definitely a cosmic lesson in there somewhere.
Leo
With your celestial leader sun traveling through creative Pisces and your seductive, mysterious eighth house for the first part of March, you’re extremely alluring in a less subdued way than usual. You’re still very charming, but a current or potential partner will sense something new about you that they can’t quite put their finger on.
On March 6, an exciting, creative sun-Uranus sextile brings pleasant surprises your way and gives you the open mind and freedom to express your true personality. This is an experimental, nonjudgmental time to explore all that love has to offer, so feel free to research, observe, or participate in your chosen kinks.
A radiant sun-Neptune conjunction comes along on the fifteenth to increase your sensitivity and awareness to other people’s needs, which should improve your love life quite a bit. It’s time to get beyond negative past experiences by forgiving, forgetting, and vowing to move on to better things.
The confident sun moves from fragile Pisces to strong, powerful Aries and your zone of expansion on March 20, welcoming in a month of believing that you can have the love life you truly want. Will it take work? Absolutely. But Aries energy is warrior energy. Keep growing and learning. Go for what you want and don’t look back.
Virgo
Your leader is communicative Mercury, and as it moves out of eccentric Aquarius and into shy Pisces and your seventh house of marriage and commitment on March 2, you have good creative ideas about how to improve your love life. You might struggle with self-doubt, Virgo, but expressing yourself is never a bad idea.
As a full moon rises in your self-assured, sometimes selfish first house on the seventh, it’s all about you. What do you need? What do you want? What do you deserve? Relationships are about two people (or sometimes more), but you’re looking at yours from a decidedly first-person point of view during this lunation.
Money goddess Venus pairs up with Taurus, a sign she rules, on March 16. She’s naturally gifted with finances, indicating that you’ll be on top of your money game in the coming weeks. If you’re in a relationship, you might finally have enough to splurge on something you’ve both wanted for a long time. If single, you could meet someone you’re attracted to who is associated with finances in some way.
On the twenty-third, fertile asteroid Ceres moves out of whimsical Leo and into your more structured sign, which is an ideal time to keep close track of birth control and fertility issues. Pay close attention to your calendar to make sure you aren’t confused about the dates. Focusing on the details during this transit allows you to take advantage of good opportunities and avoid those “oops” moments.
Libra
The fierce combo of powerful love goddess Venus and passionate Aries early in the month means you’re ready to move forward. No overthinking or regrets allowed. Leaving the past behind and moving into a much better future has you believing in the possibility of happily ever after.
Your thoughts drift to interesting places when mental Mercury moves into imaginative Pisces on March 2, but your ideas about romance aren’t really based on fact or reality now. You can create a very nice scenario in your head, but are you just wasting your time if you can’t make it happen in real life?
When serious Saturn leaves open-minded Aquarius to also partner with intuitive Pisces on the seventh, there’s a double dose of reflective energy in your sixth house of well-being. What do your mind and body need to be happy and healthy? It’s time to reassess these areas and think about how the state of your love life has been affecting your general happiness.
Affectionate Venus enters comfort-craving Taurus and your eighth house of wealth on March 16, so you love expensive things. Is there anything wrong with wanting to experience the best that life has to offer? Spoil your partner with a trip around the globe, or if a date asks where you want to go to dinner, name the most exclusive restaurant in town.
Scorpio
With your amazingly powerful co-leader Mars spending time in curious, smart Gemini for most of this month, your brain is one of your most attractive features. Whether you’re impressing someone new with your flirting skills or discussing politics with bae over morning coffee, your intellect shines.
On March 11, a hot and exciting Venus-Mars sextile gets things going in a romantic direction, so don’t be afraid to take the initiative. The other person probably wants it as much as you do, but they’re not confident enough to go for it. The way you can be both mysterious and welcoming is totally mesmerizing.
If you feel guilty about anything during the Mars-Neptune square on the fourteenth, it isn’t the right time for you to reveal your transgressions. There’s a lot of deceit and resentment around this dark transit that can leave the person you apologize to feeling worse than before. Wait for a better time to ease your conscience.
Assertive Mars moves into moody Cancer on March 25, creating mismatched universal energy and making love difficult to navigate. This is the cosmic equivalent of taking one step forward and two steps back, Scorpio. You’ve never tried so hard and been rejected so much.
Sagittarius
Your luck-provoking ruler Jupiter continues its journey through spicy Aries this month, and it joins Venus in a hot and steamy conjunction on March 1. What will the Universe conjure up for your love life now? How about some true happiness for a change! It’s so nice not to have to worry about very much now.
A Virgo full moon illuminates your tenth house of success and recognition on the seventh, sending you on a quest for balance between your career and personal life. If your relationship or dating life has been getting in the way of your job, or vice versa, you’ll be seeking to remedy that now. Look for a logical solution during this analytical lunation.
Your love life gets a passionate boost from the bright Aries sun starting on March 20, and for the next month you might feel more competitive and confident. As this solar presence lights up your fifth house, games and sports will be in your love life, but winning isn’t the most important thing. Being a sore loser is very unattractive, Sag!
You can look forward to good luck guiding your love life during the Mercury-Jupiter conjunction on the twenty-eighth, which is great news if nothing you’ve been trying lately has been working. Give up control to the Universe for a change and see what happens. Fate is looking out for you.
Capricorn
If you’ve got a complicated romantic problem, the analytical energy of the Mercury-Saturn conjunction in logical Aquarius on March 2 can help you solve it. You have excellent critical thinking skills now, and decisions are a lot easier to make when you leave emotions out of it.
On the seventh, a full moon arrives in like-minded earth sign Virgo, infusing your love life with more common sense and structure. There’s a time to be lighthearted and fun, but this lunation isn’t it. If your friend or current or potential partner teases you about being so serious, ignore them. Focusing on your goals is important now.
On that same day, teacher Saturn leaves the airiness of Aquarius for sensitive Pisces, welcoming in several months of self-reflection. You’re very in tune with what you want now, and you can set meaningful intentions during this transit. The Universe will be sending a lot of lessons your way, so don’t ignore someone who enters your life in a teaching capacity of some sort.
You really want to feel loved, appreciated, and desired during the Venus-Saturn sextile on March 17, but that doesn’t mean you’re desperate. You’ve got a lot going for you, Capricorn, so you shouldn’t have to work too hard to get into a new relationship or maintain one you already have. Don’t let anyone gaslight you into thinking you’re asking for more than you deserve.
Aquarius
There’s a lot going on early in the month that will positively affect your love life, including the delicate shifting of talkative Mercury from your detached sign to Pisces on March 2. Watch the change that comes from this energy, bringing out your emotions and allowing you to show your softer, more caring and sympathetic side.
On the sixth, a change-provoking sun-Uranus sextile arrives and stimulates your craving for something (or someone) new. Increased self-awareness makes you wonder why you’re in your current stuck position, and what you can do to make things more exciting. (Hint: a lot!)
The very next day, authoritarian Saturn leaves your emotionally aloof sign for the romantic, sensitive realm of Pisces, highlighting your house of sensual pleasures. Physical encounters can be extremely intense now, leading to a spiritual sexual awakening. Try tantric sex for a mind-blowing experience!
Regenerative Pluto leaves sturdy Capricorn for your more unstructured sign on March 23, giving you complete freedom to transform your life in a big-picture way. Where does love fall on your priority list? If “someday” seems like a long way off, remember that the future becomes the present eventually.
Pisces
Your love life is enjoying the happiness that comes with the sun traveling through your optimistic, dreamy first house early this month, Pisces. You should be getting a romantic surprise from the Universe at some point during the 30 days that surround your birthday. If you haven’t already received it, get ready!
Communicative Mercury moves into your overly sensitive sign on March 2, which can cause you to revert to sarcasm and passive-aggressiveness at times when you’re feeling unsure and insecure. Deep down, you know these actions will only alienate you from a current or potential partner, but you can’t stop yourself.
On the seventh, structured Saturn also drifts into your idealistic, lovestruck first house and urges you to make some of your romantic dreams a reality. It sounds like a lot of work for someone like you who is a self-admitted procrastinator, right?! But if you can get into this motivational energy, you can really turn your daydreams into real-life scenarios, which sounds both terrifying and fantastic at the same time.
The sun leaves your shy sign for outgoing Aries on March 20, increasing your confidence and desire to succeed. No matter what your love life looks like right now, putting yourself out there and making more of an effort will only make things better. If you believe in yourself, you can move mountains.
