This week brings a Lunar Eclipse in Virgo, which means it’s time to get our act together. If life has been feeling like a chaotic closet stuffed with unfinished projects, emotional baggage, and that one sweater you swear you’ll wear again (you won’t), Virgo is here to help you Marie Kondo your reality.
We kick off with the Moon in Leo, encouraging bold self-expression, only to transition into a Virgo-fueled cosmic intervention. Mercury retrograde begins its shenanigans in Aries, making communication a potential battlefield, while the Sun’s rendezvous with Saturn forces us to face our responsibilities (no, you can’t ghost your to-do list forever). Let’s break it down day by day.
Monday, March 10: Strut Like You Mean It (Moon in Leo)
Mood: Confidence or delusion? You decide.
The week begins with the Moon in Leo, cranking up the drama and making us all crave attention. Leo energy is fabulous, loud, and ready to take center stage. This is your day to shine—but don’t let your ego get in the way. If you find yourself rage-texting someone because they left you on ‘read,’ take a deep breath.
How to Work With It:
- Embrace creativity: Start that project you’ve been putting off or post that selfie you’ve been overanalyzing.
- Watch out for validation-seeking: Confidence is great, but don’t let other people’s approval dictate your worth.
- Say yes to fun: A little self-indulgence is allowed. Just don’t go full diva.
Action Step: If you find yourself in a petty argument, ask yourself: “Is this my inner lion, or am I just being a cat that knocked something off the table for no reason?”
Tuesday, March 11: The Ghosts of Exes Past (Mercury Conjunct Venus Rx in Aries)
Mood: Texting your ex? Reconsider.
Mercury cozies up to retrograde Venus in Aries, stirring up old relationship drama like a badly-timed Facebook memory. If you’re feeling the urge to reconnect with an ex, remind yourself why they’re an ex. Aries energy is impulsive, and Mercury retrograde loves bringing up unresolved issues, but that doesn’t mean you need to entertain every old flame that slides into your DMs.
How to Work With It:
- Think before you speak (or text, or email).
- Use this energy for reflection, not regret.
- If someone from the past reappears, ask yourself if they’ve really changed or if this is just Mercury’s way of messing with you.
Action Step: Instead of diving back into an old relationship, channel this energy into revisiting an old creative project. Give your passions, not your past, a second chance.
Wednesday, March 12: Reality Check (Sun Conjunct Saturn in Pisces)
Mood: Dreams meet deadlines.
The Sun and Saturn team up in Pisces to deliver a big ol’ reality check. This transit asks us to be accountable, especially when it comes to our goals. If you’ve been avoiding responsibility, today’s the day to get your act together.
How to Work With It:
- Set realistic goals and actually commit to them.
- Use discipline to bring your creative or spiritual pursuits to life.
- If you feel overwhelmed, break things down into manageable steps. Saturn loves structure.
Action Step: Make a to-do list and tackle the hardest task first. Future You will be grateful.
Thursday, March 13: Prep for the Big Cleanse (Moon in Virgo)
Mood: Organize or self-destruct.
The Virgo Moon sets the stage for Friday’s Lunar Eclipse. This is your chance to get a head start on decluttering—physically, emotionally, or both. Virgo loves order, so if something feels messy (your room, your inbox, your feelings), clean it up.
How to Work With It:
- Focus on small, productive tasks.
- Don’t spiral into self-criticism—progress over perfection.
- Acts of service will be extra fulfilling today.
Action Step: Pick one area of your life that feels out of control and take one small action to fix it.
Friday, March 14: The Big Reset (Lunar Eclipse in Virgo & Sun Sextile Uranus in Taurus)
Mood: Clarity arrives, ready or not.
The Lunar Eclipse in Virgo is not here to play. It’s spotlighting what needs to be cleaned up in your life—bad habits, toxic relationships, clutter (mental and physical). On top of that, the Sun sextiles Uranus, encouraging innovative thinking. Expect sudden insights that help you make sense of everything.
How to Work With It:
- Accept the truth, even if it’s uncomfortable.
- Make practical, sustainable changes.
- Let go of the things (and people) that don’t align with your growth.
Action Step: Write down the biggest lesson you’ve learned in the past six months. Then, decide how you’re going to apply it moving forward.
Saturday, March 15: Mercury Retrograde Mayhem (Mercury Rx in Aries)
Mood: Patience? Never heard of her.
Mercury retrograde in Aries brings communication chaos. Expect tech issues, misunderstandings, and the overwhelming desire to respond to everything with “fine, I’ll do it myself.” Aries energy wants action, but Mercury retrograde forces us to pause and rethink.
How to Work With It:
- Slow down. Seriously.
- Avoid impulsive decisions.
- Double-check emails, texts, and travel plans.
Action Step: Before sending a snarky response, wait 10 minutes. If you still want to send it, at least edit out the all-caps.
Sunday, March 16: Seek Balance (Moon in Libra)
Mood: Peacemaker mode.
After a week of intense energy, the Moon in Libra reminds us to breathe. This is a great day for resolving conflicts, focusing on relationships, and restoring harmony in your environment.
How to Work With It:
- Approach discussions with diplomacy.
- Engage in self-care that brings balance (think: yoga, journaling, long walks).
- Beautify your space to create inner peace.
Action Step: Make a conscious effort to listen more than you speak today. Sometimes, clarity comes when we stop talking.
Final Takeaway: Declutter, Decide, and Move Forward
This week is all about cleaning up the mess—emotionally, physically, and mentally. The Lunar Eclipse in Virgo asks us to get real about what’s working and what’s not. Mercury retrograde will test our patience, but if we slow down and reflect, we’ll come out the other side with a clearer sense of direction.
The key? Don’t let the mess overwhelm you—just start somewhere. Even small steps count.
See you next week, and remember: progress, not perfection.
