The winter season is nearly over, but we're not springing forward just yet. After all, your March 12 weekly horoscope marks a significant turning point after experiencing some of the more pivotal transits the last few months of 2022. But with Saturn making its official ingress into Pisces on March 7, this is the perfect time to cultivate a connection with your higher self and make your dreams a reality.
This week begins on a mystifying note, as the moon will dance with Neptune before concluding its journey through Scorpio. Intuitive visions are heightened at this time, so don't overlook what's being brought to your attention. Speaking of which, during the last-quarter moon in Sagittarius on March 14, Mars will square off with Neptune for the third and final time. (For reference, Mars first squared off with Neptune on Oct. 11 and again for a second time on Nov. 19.)
It's worth noting that, in Gemini, Mars is driven by the desire to obtain facts and relay the message with confidence. However, these "facts" become diluted when in the presence of Neptune, which is why coming to a concrete conclusion might feel more challenging than usual. Either way, this final meeting between Mars and Neptune will likely serve as a signal to set firm boundaries.

On March 15, the sun will join forces with Neptune, and then, the following day, Mercury's conjunction to Neptune will happen. This energy will likely add to the ongoing confusion to what you may be experiencing, thanks to Neptune, but this is all the more reason to pencil in additional downtime on your calendar.
That same day, March 16, Venus will face off with Pluto before concluding its transit through Aries. This is another transit to take into consideration, especially with both of these planets transiting through the final degree of their prospective signs. Having said that, if Venus in Aries speaks to your autonomous desires and individual sense of security, Pluto's final pit stop through Capricorn could be a lot for you to handle. Reflect on this finale because Venus's debut in Taurus on March 16 is when you'll finally get your groove back. Don't hesitate to prioritize your value systems, tend to your own garden, and stop and smell the roses during this time.

You're experiencing a transformation, Aries. The week of March 12 begins on a big note with the Scorpio moon's trine to Neptune. This energy will make you equally as intuitive as you are suspicious of what's to come.

Think back to when Mars first faced off with Neptune on Oct. 11 and again Nov. 19, 2022.

Gemini (May 21–June 20) Weekly Horoscope For March 12, 2023
You're being encouraged to surrender a routine that no longer brings you results, Gemini. The week of March 12 begins with the transformative moon in Scorpio forming a trine to all-encompassing Neptune. Whether personally or professionally, this healing synergy can be equally as liberating as it is revelatory. More importantly, however, during the last-quarter moon in Sagittarius on March 14, Mars will face off with Neptune in Pisces for the third and final time. This could trigger some friction between your desire to take action and relay an important message versus the confusion surrounding your sense of authority. Though things may seem up in the air, this won't last for long.
Fortunately, both the sun and Mercury will be joining forces with Neptune on March 15 and 16, which means that instead of moving forward with a plan of action, you are more than likely to surrender an ideal or vision you had initially attached yourself to. Venus will also square off with Pluto on March 16, highlighting everything from your newfound identity to the chapter of life you're ready to leave behind. Free yourself of commitments if it feels right.
Cancer (June 21–July 22) Weekly Horoscope For March 12, 2023
Don't let the unknown plague your mind this week, Cancer. The moon will harmonize with Neptune before it concludes its journey through Scorpio, and just because this may make you lack clarity when it comes to a potential outcome, know that you can still harness the magic of your creativity. More importantly, during the last-quarter moon in Sagittarius on March 14, Mars will square off with Neptune for the third and final time, shaking up your secretive 12th house of unconscious patterns and ninth house of belief systems. The truth will set you free, even if that means leaving it entirely up to the universe.
With both the sun and Mercury joining forces with Neptune on March 15 and 16, you could feel as if your long-term visions are clouded by a hazy fog. Nevertheless, when considering Venus's square to Pluto, there will be a professional identity or value system you may be ready to leave behind.

Leo (July 23–Aug. 22) Weekly Horoscope For March 12, 2023
You're being encouraged to set firm boundaries this week, Leo. To kick off your week, the moon will harmonize with Neptune on March 12, bringing emphasis to your fourth house of emotional foundations and eighth house of intimate unions. This could have something to do with your family or your current place of residence. More importantly, during the last-quarter moon in Sagittarius on March 14, Mars will face off with Neptune for the third and final time. Whether socially or in terms of your shared resources, this transit could trigger a push-and-pull dynamic between your desire to assert yourself in a community setting and the lack of clarity you're experiencing when it comes down to a particular commitment.
The sun and Mercury will both be joining forces with Neptune on March 15 and 16, which is where you are being encouraged to either create stronger boundaries or simply surrender your attachment to a particular outcome.

Keep your eyes on the prize, Virgo. The week of March 12 begins with the moon concluding its journey through Scorpio, all while making a harmonious trine to Neptune in your relationship sector. Whether personally or professionally, this synergy will help you gain insight on a significant partnership, even if it's subliminal at first. Shortly after, the moon will reach its first-quarter phase in Sagittarius and Mars will also square off with Neptune for the third and final time. This could create friction between your desire to take the lead in your professional life and the blurred lines that surround a significant partnership. As if this weren't hazy enough, both the sun and Mercury will be joining forces with Neptune on March 15 and 16. If you're not being guided to hold space for a significant other's needs at this time, then you could end up surrendering the entire connection. Whether it be a conversation you have yet to have or an idea you're aspiring toward, letting the universe take the wheel is your best bet under this transit.
On another note, Venus will be clashing with Pluto on March 16, which simultaneously urges you to confront a new identity you have yet to tap into, specifically when it comes to your personal autonomy in relationships.

The universe checks in with us from time to time, so open your heart to these divine messages. Shortly after, Mars will face off with Neptune for a third and final square, shaking up your ninth house of belief systems and sixth house of daily routines.

Scorpio (Oct. 23–Nov. 21) Weekly Horoscope For March 12, 2023
Follow your heart's desires, Scorpio. The moon will dance with Neptune in your fifth house of love, passion, and self-expression before concluding its journey through your sign on March 12. Whether creatively or romantically, this could bring some intuitive insight your way, so don't undermine the synchronicities. Shortly after, during the last-quarter moon in Sagittarius, Mars will face off with Neptune for the third and final time.

On March 14, the moon will reach its first-quarter phase in your sign, all while Mars faces off with Neptune for the third and final time. This transit will highlight a lack of clarity or boundary between a significant other and your family unit.
Keep in mind, Mercury and the sun will join forces with Neptune on March 15 and 16, suggesting the possibility of you surrendering a long-time burden you've been repressing.

Later in the week, with Venus making its final square to Pluto, you'll gain clarity on an identity you no longer resonate with, specifically when it comes to your individual desires and self-autonomy. Venus's shift into Taurus soon after brings charm, abundance, and harmony to your day-to-day affairs.
Capricorn (Dec. 22–Jan. 19) Weekly Horoscope For March 12, 2023
Despite your productivity levels, you could feel a lack of clarity around an endeavor you have in mind, Capricorn.

Whether online or in person, this could help you gain unexpected insight and maybe even validation you've been secretly longing for.
More importantly, amid the first-quarter moon in Sagittarius, Mars will face off with Neptune for its third and final square. This synergy could challenge you to create balance between your day-to-day mindset and your ideal way of accomplishing something.

Aquarius (Jan. 20–Feb. 18) Weekly Horoscope For March 12, 2023
You're taking your power back, Aquarius. The week of March 12 begins on a more serious note, given the moon's journey through Scorpio and your 10th house of authority, reputation, and notoriety. The moon will also meet with Neptune in a harmonious trine, activating your second house of values, finances, and sense of security. This is where you could gain some sort of enlightenment on next steps, or maybe even an intuitive decision to take on a professional venture.
During the last-quarter moon in Sagittarius and your 11th house of associations on March 14, Mars will go head to head with Neptune for the third and final time, triggering a sense of restlessness and ambiguity in regard to your passion projects and sense of self-worth.

Whether personally or professionally, you have the courage, confidence, and strategy to take action. Both the sun and Mercury will be joining forces with Neptune on March 15 and 16, and this is where you are being reminded to be gentle with yourself and have more compassion for all you've been able to accomplish thus far.

On March 15 and 16, both the sun and Mercury will join forces with Neptune in your sign, which is where you are most likely to reconnect with your higher self. Venus's square to Pluto on March 16 will challenge you to honor both your sense of security and sense of belonging in the world. Ask yourself, are you settling or are you being honest when it comes to achieving your individual dreams? If not now, when? If not you, then who?
