Horoscopes
Aries
This is the day before a New Moon/Solar Eclipse, dear Aries, suggesting that new initiatives begun today are unlikely to take seed. The Moon’s presence in your privacy sector also points you towards quieter activities and some level of anonymity. Keep a low profile. While rest might elude you at the moment, you’re in need of it, and in the days ahead, this will become quite obvious. Today, reflect upon friendships and new connections that you’ve made recently. Avoid the traps of over-thinking, however. There is a big difference between reflection, which is creative, and over-analyzing matters, which is counter-productive.
Taurus
It’s a strong day for reflecting upon the past weeks, dear Taurus, particularly related to your focus on personal goals and aspirations that feed your sense that you are contributing to the world on a social level, or making strong connections to others. Think about what you’ve achieved and wrap up projects that have had their day in the sun. It’s not a good day for making new plans, however, as the information available to you now is incomplete. It’s important to take in, absorb, and process information and feelings rather than to push for new experiences today, as the Solar Eclipse that occurs tomorrow is likely to change your perspective, bringing new concerns and interests with it and clearing the path for new beginnings.
Gemini
Avoid making sweeping changes today; learn from what you take in rather than chasing new experiences or ideas, dear Gemini. Changes are certainly in the air, but they may not be clear just yet. Take time to catch your breath, as the Solar Eclipse that occurs tomorrow morning puts you “out there”. You will be even more visible and accountable in the coming weeks. New beginnings are not advised just now, as the information available to you is not full. However, it’s a very important time for getting your bearings and finding your center, as a New Moon/Solar Eclipse can stimulate impulsiveness, and you will be at your best knowing your heart.
Cancer
With a Solar Eclipse occurring tomorrow, dear Cancer, today is stronger for dreams, reflection, and fantasy rather than new beginnings. If you can find a way to get away from it all, do so. This can be as simple as exploring an interest, taking a walk, or curling up with a good book or movie. If not, simply keep a low profile and prepare for changes in interest, focus, and direction, which are sure to come over the next few days. Because the Moon is Balsamic, this is a time for letting go rather than revving up. Your intuition should be in fine working order.
Leo
This is a time for concentrating on letting things go and relaxing your mind, dear Leo. Finances can be a concern for some of you; a matter of trust or power dynamics in a relationship could be the issue for others. This is a day that favors putting matters to rest and taking in information so that you absorb as much as you can. The Solar Eclipse that occurs tomorrow morning will bring a need to make fundamental changes in your relationships, or in your finances. Today is better used for reflection than new beginnings.
Virgo
Today is better for coming to peace with yourself than for revving yourself up for new activities, dear Virgo. A Solar Eclipse will occur tomorrow morning, and because it will energize your opposite sign (Pisces), you might feel a little drained emotionally and/or physically, and there can be a sense that others’ agendas take priority over yours. Stay centered and focused, and grab extra rest if possible. This eclipse can stimulate impulsive decisions and quite likely new beginnings into your life regarding relationships.
Libra
On this day before a New Moon Solar Eclipse, dear Libra, try to take some of the pressure off. Avoid getting worked up over matters that truly don’t matter in the larger scheme of things. Today is best spent on enjoyable, quiet, and pressure-free activities as you prepare for a busy period ahead. A Solar Eclipse occurs in your work and health sector tomorrow morning, stirring up much activity in these areas of your life in the months ahead. You have a good eye for details today, but watch that you are not honing in on flaws and harping on them.
Scorpio
Whims would be wisely tamed today, dear Scorpio, as interests and direction are likely to take a sharp turn after tomorrow morning’s New Moon, which is a powerful Solar Eclipse and a supermoon to boot. Overall, today is better for reflecting rather than entirely new initiatives. Think about ways you can express yourself in the coming weeks, when you’ll have plenty of time to explore. Try to keep things light, as eclipses have a way of temporarily draining our energy levels, largely due to overwhelming feeling that we have yet to make sense of.
Sagittarius
With a New Moon Solar Eclipse occurring tomorrow morning, Sagittarius, we are symbolically in the dark today. It’s a time for tying up loose ends rather than pushing forward with new plans. Family may need to be handled with more sensitivity now. Emotions can be hard to understand, and a little difficult, as may be family members. While it’s not quite the time for new beginnings, you might reflect upon what you have learned and accomplished in the past month.
Capricorn
It’s not a time for new beginnings just yet, dear Capricorn. A new direction or path is forthcoming with a New Moon Solar Eclipse occurring tomorrow morning. For now, concentrate on reviewing, reflecting, tying up loose ends, and letting go. Take the time to catch your breath today. At times, you can take your sense of duty to extremes, and you might want to weigh the effects of the resultant stress on your life to see if it’s truly worth pushing yourself so hard. Consider what you’ve recently accomplished. It may not seem like much since you’ve been spreading your energy over so many different areas, but if you take the time to list everything, you’ll see reason for giving yourself a pat on the back.
Aquarius
A Solar Eclipse occurs tomorrow morning, dear Aquarius, and so does the spring equinox, signaling new beginnings. These two events act to stir up activity. However, overall this will be a calmer, less visible period for you. Important decisions may be required of you in the next few weeks, particularly revolving around personal finances and business, so today it would be wise to clear your head. Tomorrow morning’s lunation brings a more take-charge, empowering energy for taking care of your assets, although possibly some choices or endings to face in the process. Avoid entirely new projects and endeavors today.
Pisces
Letting off steam in constructive ways will bring you the most success today, Pisces. While you’re capable of wonderful new insights into your life these days, it’s not quite the time for pushing ahead. A New Moon occurs in your sign tomorrow morning, and it’s a Solar Eclipse, which is very much like a magnified New Moon. It’s bound to shake things up a little so that you make important changes in your life. Your best bet is to concentrate on the things you want to improve in your life, particularly in terms of your personality, image, and attitudes. Take it easy to prepare for busier, livelier days to come. You require more time than usual to process things on an emotional level and tend to shy away from the routine demands of everyday life now, and this allows you some extra time for reflection. Sometimes passivity is necessary.

The following aspects (major only) and positions are at noon (EDT) on March 19th:
Note that when an aspect is Applying, it has not yet happened but is within orb – it’s pending. When an aspect is Separating, it has already happened/perfected and is moving away from the aspect. Depending on the speed of the planet/body involved, the aspect will have perfected, or will perfect, in a matter of hours (often the case with the Moon), days, months, and possibly years in the case of the very slow-moving outer planets and bodies.
Note that the Moon moves at a rate of approximately one degree every 2 hours, so that if an aspect involving is applying and has an orb of 5 degrees, the aspect will perfect (be exact) in about 10 hours. If the Moon is separating from an aspect with an orb of 2 degrees, it has already formed said aspect approximately 4 hours ago (since the following are positions at noon today, then it would have occurred at about 8 AM today).
**I suggest paying close attention to applying aspects. The energy of the aspect builds as it gets closer to exact. Once an aspect has happened, it’s over. Separating aspects are good to know for context, but in terms of energy that is with us today, applying aspects are most important. (This is the case for daily astrology influences involving inner planets, which pass quickly, and not natal astrology aspects, which are with us for a life time).
