With Mercury moving into Aries next week, Tatler’s astrologer Casey Chan explains what it means for each star sign

On March 10, Mercury moves into Aries, fuelling our communication with wilful assertiveness. Over the next two months, we may find ourselves becoming more outspoken, even brash at times, which could lead to disagreements. Balancing self-expression with consideration for others is especially important during this transit.

On the same day, the Sun and the Moon meet in Pisces, forming a dreamy New Moon. Supported by Uranus in Taurus, the cosmic waves are pushing us to let go of old attachments and dream anew. This period encourages us to listen to our intuition and set intentions for personal growth. As the last sign of the zodiac, Pisces often bring us lessons of endings and letting go, which can stir up deep feelings of grief or loneliness. When Venus enters Pisces on March 11, we are further supported by our creativity, intuition and empathy (Pisces gifts). This is a wonderful time to focus on self-care, doing less, and loosening control—which creates space for life’s mystery to enter.

During these shifts, Mercury in Aries harmonises with Pluto in Aquarius, sparking ideas for fresh starts. Meditate on your deep insights and make use of this week’s cosmic alignments to set new intentions for a brand-new cycle (your future self who bears the fruits will thank you later). Remember: most big things started with an idea.

The week by rising sign

Aries
It’s time to trust your deeper wisdom and insights. This New Moon calls for you to bravely close a healing cycle and birth a new you.

Taurus
Whether it’s an old dream or friend group, don’t be afraid to let go of what no longer fits. Look through a higher perspective and trust that when one chapter ends, another begins.

Gemini
New concepts seem to be brewing in your career, which may signal a necessary falling away of your public image/identity, something you once were known for.

Cancer
You’re letting go of beliefs and knowledge that were passed down to you by others, and learning about the world through a new lens, on your own terms.

Leo
A healing cycle is completing around issues of intimacy or sexuality. You’re transforming from the inside out; when things feel difficult, look within for the strength to continue.

Virgo
In your most ideal relationship, how do you look/feel/act? Make that your reality by releasing relationship patterns that don’t serve you in this upcoming cycle.

Libra
A new work cycle could be starting for you, but you do need to make space for the new to enter. Ask yourself: “what would I change about my day-to-day life?” and then do exactly that.

Scorpio
Sometimes we create our own happiness, at other times, the universe brings us what we didn’t even know we needed. The latter is your process now.

Sagittarius
You’re closing an emotional healing cycle that might be related to your family, or the women in your life. Create a secure foundation for yourself for the upcoming cycle.

Capricorn
Connect your mind with your intuition. Shift your mental narrative of who you think you are to manifest your heart’s desires.

Aquarius
Source your security and self-value through a more reliable source—your inner world. Let go of what you thought you needed to exist safely in this world.

Pisces
Let go of the part of your self-identity that’s no longer you. A new cycle is beginning, which version of yourself are you calling forth to walk this new path?
