This March 2023 will be a jam-packed month of significant astrology transits bringing powerful energies with opportunities for transformation, abundance and growth from Saturn moving from Aquarius into Pisces (March 7, 2023), Mars finally leaving Gemini (March 15, 2023) and Pluto moving into Aquarius (March 23, 2023). In this post we’ll focus on Saturn moving into Pisces and what it might mean for you:
March 7, 2023: Full Moon in Virgo at 16’40º at 7:39am EST. Main themes is organization, routines, focus, errands, restless, nervousness.
A full moon signifies an end of cycle and this full moon in Virgo transit coincides with end of long Saturn in Aquarius transit. It will feel like a day with a lot of effort and hard work and maybe some frustration, but you’re not sure where this frustration is coming from. It’s a great day to declutter, get organized like cleaning out a closet, old filing cabinet, or getting your papers ready for tax season.
March 7, 2023: Saturn enters Pisces at 0’00º at 8:34am EST. The main themes is melancholy, tragic, romantic, weighty issues, emotional, diseases, illnesses, deep mysteries and heavy.
Saturn will be in Pisces from March 7, 2023 until May 24, 2025 and September 1, 2025 until February 13, 2026 which is 3 year long transit that speaks to turning our fantasies, dreams and spiritual beliefs & practices into reality. While Pisces in Saturn will bring a more of an emotional and introspective energy like a long reality check, this transit will see more people tapping into their spiritual side and challenge the status quo so to confront any fears and limitations. There will be many reality checks along the way with Pisces in Saturn snapping us out of fantasies and daydreams. It’s also expected that the COVID will persist as Pisces is traditionally associated with disease and illnesses.
Saturn in Pisces will be a very different energy compared to Saturn in Aquarius. Saturn in Aquarius has been transiting in and out of Aquarius since the beginning of the global COVID pandemic on March 21, 2020 which has been a challenging time for the general Collective especially when the whole world went into lockdown. The global pandemic affected all segments of the population around the world breaking down the foundations of our daily lives from transportation, business, government, health care, social interactions, social media, relationships, career, education, etc. The Aquarian topics became very prominent during the past 3 years including such as challenging authority such as people challenging vaccine, masking or lockdown mandates. The main lessons from the Saturn in Aquarius cycle that the collective should be walking away is humbleness, responsibility and accountability through times of crisis. If you learned the Aquarius in Saturn lessons during the past 3 years you may be rewarded by Saturn in the next cycle. However, if you didn’t learn the Saturn in Aquarius lessons Saturn will always find a way to break down any foundations that have built so they’re learnt.
If people want a previous of Saturn in Pisces, the last time Saturn transited through Pisces was between May 1993 to April 1996 and this was a period where there was a lot of angst in people, angst against societal norms and group conformity. The grunge music scene became popular in the Pacific Coast in the United States which spread globally, Tonya Harding attacking Nancy Kerrigan before the Olympics, Quebec referendum to leave Canada is defeated, Nelson Mandela awarded the Nobel Peace prize for ending apartheid in South Africa, the OJ Simpson trial dominated global televisions throughout 1995, Oklahoma bombing by Timothy McVeigh in 1995, famous basketball player Michael Jordan came out of retirement in 1995 and a lot of local wars and genocides occurred during this period time, including the Bosnian and Rwanda genocides. The Saturn in Pisces cycle in 2023-2026 will be different from the Saturn in Pisces cycle in 1993-1996. It will still be a heavy transit which will take off the rose-coloured glasses and seriousness to topics of religion, spirituality, mental health, persistence of COVID and long-term fall out from COVID, the rise of other illnesses, scandals and suffering of others.
For younger millennials with natal Saturn in Pisces or anyone with a mutable sign Saturn (Gemini, Virgo and Sagittarius) this will significant time for you as well because any hard aspects to Saturn creates a crisis that causes you to face any fears or subconscious issues and shake down any foundations you have built.
