Beware: Your Spring Horoscopes Indicate a Turbulent Beginning
I don’t know how you feel, but this winter has seemed never-ending to me. Fortunately, spring has finally arrived. (The official start of the season is March 20, but I personally view the beginning of March as the onset of spring.) Flowers are starting to bloom, and the birds are singing, which signifies one thing: Your spring horoscopes are ready.
The start of spring may seem a bit chaotic, with two eclipses in March (one in Virgo and one in Aries) and Mercury entering retrograde on March 15. As usual, make the most of this Mercury retrograde by backing up your devices, confirming your travel plans, and blocking your ex’s number. Discover what else spring 2025 holds for you below.

**Aries**
With the eclipse occurring in your sign at the end of March, you might find yourself reevaluating various aspects of your life, including your career and personal style. If you’ve been contemplating a significant change for a while, this may be the time to act. The start of your season on March 20 feels like a personal renewal, making it a perfect moment to outline your goals for the year ahead. Be cautious with your spending before Taurus season arrives on April 19, as you might struggle to resist impulsive purchases and small indulgences.
**Taurus**
You’ll find yourself with numerous plans throughout Pisces season. As a laid-back Taurus, you may feel inclined to decline invites in favor of staying at home, but aim to step out of your comfort zone and socialize more. Aries season will allow for some downtime, so you'll have the chance to recharge. As someone who enjoys luxury, you don't need a special occasion to treat yourself; however, Taurus season is the ideal time to do so. Don’t hesitate to go big when it arrives—consider getting a new hairstyle, splurging on that designer handbag you've been eyeing, or treating yourself to a fancy meal.
**Gemini**
March will bring a strong focus on work for you, especially with Mercury going retrograde on March 15, although you might have already been feeling its effects. Remember to take your time and be extra careful to prevent any mistakes or miscommunications during this period. Don’t panic if you’re awaiting responses to job applications; things might be delayed due to Mercury retrograde. Once Aries season starts, your attention will shift towards friends. Organize a dinner outing with your friend group or host a viewing party for The Bachelor. Taurus season will make you crave some solitude, so use March and the first part of April to expend your social energy.
**Cancer**
You’ll be seeking opportunities to broaden your horizons during Pisces season, whether that involves enrolling in an online course or planning a trip abroad. With Aries season and the March 29 eclipse emphasizing the career sector of your chart, you may experience changes in your job. This is a good moment to reflect on your job satisfaction and your future career aspirations. An unexpected job offer could even surprise you. Once Taurus season kicks in, you’ll feel more social and will have plenty of opportunities to spend time with friends, but remember not to overcommit—protect your homebody tendencies from burnout.
**Leo**
Pisces season, especially post-Virgo eclipse, will have you thinking about financial matters. It may be a good time to initiate a side project or request a raise. Aries season will be a period of learning for you, possibly sparking newfound interests or prompting you to consider pursuing another degree. In Taurus season, your job will take precedence, and you might find yourself juggling many tasks. Be careful not to get overwhelmed with work and ensure to carve out time for your hobbies and other interests.
**Virgo**
Honestly, the beginning of March might be a bit challenging for you since your ruling planet Mercury will be retrograde and there’s an eclipse in your sign. As the detail-oriented Virgo, you’ll want to meticulously ensure everything is in order to avoid miscommunications. Throughout March and April, your focus will be on deepening your connection with your partner or close friends. Then, during Taurus season, your intellectual side will shine; immerse yourself in a new subject or book genre, or consider getting a MasterClass subscription.
**Libra**
As spring begins, your focus will be on your daily routine. Take advantage of this energy to catch up on chores like laundry, conduct a thorough cleaning of your home, or finalize administrative tasks at work
