This Week Astrology: March 22-March 28, 2026
The first Waxing Moon after eclipse season begins to gather momentum. With the zodiac newly reset at the Spring Equinox, steady progress replaces reflection.
We move into this week under the early stages of a Waxing Moon cycle following the Pisces New Moon of March 18, the first new lunar cycle after eclipse season. Pisces closes the zodiacal year, and this particular lunation arrived just days before the Spring Equinox, when the Sun crossed into Aries and a new astrological year began. The landscape has already shifted, and the Waxing Moon now invites steady forward movement as new intentions begin to take form.
Pisces is sometimes called the spine of the zodiac because it gathers the experiences of the entire cycle before a new one begins. This New Moon arrived at a late degree of Pisces, emphasizing release, forgiveness, and the willingness to let go of anything that quietly drains energy or holds the past in place. With Uranus in Taurus forming a supportive sextile, subtle breakthroughs may emerge gradually rather than dramatically. Small realizations now can open entirely new pathways in the months ahead.
As this first waxing week unfolds, the Moon moves from Taurus through Gemini and Cancer before reaching Leo by the weekend. The rhythm begins slowly and practically, becomes more conversational and emotionally aware midweek, and finishes with renewed confidence and creative expression. The purpose of the week is simple: begin moving forward again. Not with urgency, but with intention.
For deeper context, explore the Pisces New Moon Horoscopes and Tarotscopes, or schedule a psychic-astrology reading to work more deliberately with the quiet magic of this lunar cycle.
The Moon moves through Taurus all day Sunday, emphasizing steadiness, practicality, and the desire to build something tangible. With the Sun conjunct Neptune in Aries, inspiration can run high, but it helps to stay grounded in realistic steps rather than chasing every idea that appears. Taurus favors patience and persistence, allowing intuitive insights to translate into practical action. Today’s best use: slow down, focus on stability, and move steadily toward what genuinely matters.
On Monday, The Moon begins in Taurus before entering Gemini at 4:18am ET, shifting the tone from steady focus to curiosity and conversation. A 23 day often brings movement, ideas, and social interaction, but it is also easy for time to slip away in long discussions or distractions. Gemini supports learning and communication, though discipline will help keep priorities on track. Today’s best use: stay mentally flexible, communicate clearly, and keep your attention on the work that truly needs completion.
The Moon continues through Gemini all day Tuesday, encouraging curiosity, conversation, and the exchange of ideas. This is a strong day for dialogue, brainstorming, and exploring options that may not have been obvious earlier in the week. A 24 day adds a stabilizing influence, helping conversations become productive rather than scattered. Today’s best use: engage in meaningful discussions, gather useful information, and work toward solutions that benefit everyone involved.
On Wednesday, The Moon moves from Gemini into Cancer at 6:32am ET, shifting attention from information and conversation toward emotional awareness and personal priorities. This is also the First Quarter Moon, a phase that brings forward movement and requires action on intentions set at the New Moon. The Sun conjunct Saturn in Aries asks for discipline and maturity, encouraging decisions that support long-term goals rather than short-term impulses, while the Sun sextile Pluto in Aquarius supports thoughtful change and strategic leadership. Today’s best use: take responsibility for your direction, strengthen important foundations, and make decisions that align with long-term growth.
The Moon travels through Cancer all day Thursday, highlighting emotional security, home, and supportive relationships. As the Moon crosses Jupiter in Cancer, there is potential for encouragement, growth, and positive developments connected to personal or family matters. Opportunities may appear when you remain open and receptive rather than trying to force outcomes. Today’s best use: nurture what matters most, stay open to supportive developments, and allow positive momentum to build naturally.
On Friday, The Moon remains in Cancer until 10:09am ET before entering Leo, shifting the mood from reflection to confidence and expression. A 27 day encourages perspective and insight, making this a moment to recognize what you’ve learned and where you want to move next. Leo energy brings creativity and visibility, though you may find yourself enjoying your own rhythm more than seeking attention. Today’s best use: express yourself confidently, enjoy creative freedom, and follow what feels personally meaningful.
The Moon moves through Leo all day Saturday, amplifying creativity, self-expression, and the desire to share your voice. Saturn in Aries sextile Pluto in Aquarius supports purposeful action and disciplined change, making this a productive day for initiatives that require courage and persistence. Leo encourages you to show up fully and bring enthusiasm to what you’re doing. Today’s best use: lead with confidence, pursue creative or personal projects, and commit to actions that move your goals forward.
Have A Beautiful week, everybody!
Working with the Waxing Moon
The days following a New Moon represent the first stage of growth in the lunar cycle. After eclipse season and the reflective tone of Pisces, the Waxing Moon now begins gathering energy for what will unfold over the coming months. This is the phase where intentions slowly translate into movement. Early progress may feel subtle, but the direction established now often shapes the larger outcomes that follow.
This particular cycle began in Pisces, the final sign of the zodiac, which emphasizes release before renewal. Forgiveness, emotional clarity, and the willingness to let go of lingering resentments can create space for new opportunities to develop. With Mercury now moving direct and the Sun newly in Aries, the coming weeks support thoughtful action built on insights gained during the reflective weeks behind us.
