The new moon in March 2025 is a solar eclipse which is more potent than a regular new moon. It makes the spiritual meaning of the new moon March 2025 astrology the beginning of a new six-month cycle. It is time to start fresh, turn over a new leaf, or start a new project.

The March 2025 new moon also coincides with two of the most significant planetary alignments this year. Saturn sextile Uranus brings positive change and technological breakthroughs. However, the alignment of Mercury, Venus and Neptune is causing worry, fear and uncertainty about these dramatic changes.

New Moon March 2025 Astrology

The new moon on Saturday, March 29, 2025, is at 09°00′ Aries. It makes no planetary aspects, but 9° Aries is a sensitive degree because both Mercury and Venus stationed retrograde here in the last month.

Significant influences come from the alignment of Mercury, Venus and Neptune, plus Saturn sextile Uranus. Finally, each of the aspects is impacted by a fixed star within the constellation Pegasus. So there are four factors to consider in the new moon March 2025 astrology:

1. Sun conjunct Moon.
2. The Mercury, Venus, and Neptune stellium.
3. Saturn sextile Uranus.
4. The stars of the Pegasus constellation.

New Moon March 2025 Astrology

New Moon March 2025 Meaning

Sun conjunct Moon (0°00′) is the strongest aspect in astrology. It occurs every 28 days as a new moon when the Moon passes between Earth and the Sun. The March 2025 new moon is a partial solar eclipse, where the Moon only partially obscures the Sun. It is not as strong as a total solar eclipse but still more powerful than a regular new moon.

A solar eclipse represents cyclic renewal and gives a refreshing burst of energy and initiative. But it also brings emotional balance, not irrationally emotional, and not too cold and calculating. It means all possibilities are on the table, and you can rightly put yourself at the forefront of new plans for the future.

While a new moon lasts four weeks, the effects of the March 2025 solar eclipse astrology last nearly six months up to the next solar eclipse. It is excellent for making a fresh start, turning over a new leaf, or starting a new project. You can also question old habits, behaviors, and beliefs while searching for new and inventive ways to progress.

Solar Eclipse March 2025 Stars

The image below shows the March 2025 new moon in the Constellation of Pisces. Because of the precession of the equinoxes, it is the Sign of Aries in the chart above. However, it is the constellation of Pegasus, the Winged Horse, that has the most significant influence on the astrological meaning of the new moon in March 2025.

The Sun and Moon align with Gamma Pegasi, Algenib. Mercury, Venus and Neptune align with Beta Pegasi, Scheat. Saturn aligns with Alpha Pegasi, Markab.

Pegasus gives ambition, vanity, intuition, enthusiasm, caprice and poor judgment. ^[1] It is associated with ships, the ocean, changes in the weather, climate change, drowning, accidents, catastrophes, earthquakes, tsunamis, storms, floods, landslides, shipwrecks, mining accidents, airplane accidents, falling accidents, shooting down, horses, jockeys, transportation, communications, space travel, exploration, pioneering, science, invention and heroism.

Fixed star Algenib at 09♈30 gives notoriety, dishonor, violence, and misfortune and denotes the naked and poor professional beggar. ^[1]

With the New Moon (0°30′): Mental disturbances, fevers, ill health, and some danger of accidents. ^[1]

Mercury, Venus and Neptune

Mercury conjunct Venus (1°39′) encourages personal interaction and socializing. You need human contact to share words, feelings, love and affection and to be appreciated, valued, or at least noticed. This aspect is neutral to positive. However, Mercury retrograde and Venus retrograde have a restrictive, delaying, confusing and complicated influence. Together with the unfortunate influence of fixed star Scheat, Neptune will have a challenging influence on Mercury and Venus.

Mercury conjunct Neptune (0°30′) can bring sensitivity, creativity, imagination and intuition. But only with a spiritual orientation and by remaining moral and ethical. Mercury retrograde and fixed star Scheat will tend to distort your thinking, causing confusion, deception, insecurity and anxiety. There is a risk of lies, misinformation, propaganda, scandal, fraud, betrayal, paranoia, spying, subversion, poisoning, infection, addiction and overdose.

You may be susceptible to believing conspiracy theories or strange and extreme spiritual and religious views. Danger may come from loan sharks, scams and cults. So, be very clear and concise with your messages. Take extra care with business, government and legal matters and seek professional advice before signing contracts. Above all, be honest with yourself and others. Even little white lies could lead to significant embarrassment or the need for more convoluted cover-ups.

Venus conjunct Neptune (1°09′) can bring sensitivity, idealism, romance and creativity. But again, a high degree of spiritual attunement is needed to manifest the positive potential of this aspect. Venus retrograde and fixed star Scheat bring the risk of fantasy, illusion, and illusion.

You may become insecure about yourself and your appearance. A poor self-image may lead to relationship difficulties. You can also experience disappointment in your love life by forming a distorted image of someone else. Avoid over-idealizing romantic interests, ignoring the faults that are plain for others to see.

This alignment of Mercury, Venus and Neptune could distort your perception and intuition. Confusion, self-doubt, anxiety and uncertainty are possible as your imagined future becomes less certain.

Personal interaction, even if online, through friendship, family or social groups may provide the sense of togetherness and faith in humanity that is needed during this period of unprecedented change and upheaval. Help may also come from ceremony, prayer, meditation or medication.

Fixed star Scheat at 29♓43 causes causes extreme misfortune, murder, suicide, and drowning. ^[1] An enterprising, stubborn, headstrong, combative, changeable and unpredictable nature. Controversies, fantasies, violence, and the gain and loss of friends and acquaintances. ^[2] It is possible for a positive influence to emanate from Scheat, but only for some people, on their mental creativity if these people are ready to receive such inflow. ^[3] Scheat indicates danger from the sea in the form of tidal waves or violent storms. ^[4]

With Mercury (0°45′): Many accidents and narrow escapes, especially by water, many enemies, trouble through writings, bad for health and domestic affairs. ^[1]  Mentally keen but criticized through actions or statements, always has one last and generally unkind remark or statement, a victim of unfortunate circumstances, may belabor or belittle someone, knowingly or unknowingly. ^[2]

With Venus (0°54′): Evil environment, suffering through own acts, danger of imprisonment or restraint. ^[1] Creates problems for associates, may live in a poor environment and be unable to improve conditions. ^[2]

With Neptune (0°14′): Prominent in inventive, occult or psychic matters, persecuted, peculiar domestic conditions, many accidents, the danger of drowning. ^[1] The danger of death in catastrophes such as floods, shipwrecks, mining accidents, airplane accidents, or maybe by suicide. ^[3]

Saturn Sextile Uranus

Saturn sextile Uranus (0°27′) combines self-discipline and endurance with open-mindedness and inventiveness. This enables positive change that is substantial, steady, structural, constructive and enduring. Common sense blended with creative flair allows you to take calculated risks. Hard work, determination, leadership and mentoring could bring unexpected success, recognition and promotion.

You can bring order out of chaos and make others feel safe and secure during times of upheaval. Restrictive and outdated systems or traditions can be updated and modified without disrespecting ancestors or causing rebellion. This aspect favors renovating a house or moving, committing to someone or something new that you were unsure or hesitant about, building networks, and uniting people for a common purpose.

Discovery, invention and creative breakthroughs can have practical application. In the last week, there have been a series of technological breakthroughs, from space exploration to artificial intelligence and robotics.

This aspect will have a positive influence on the new moon March 2025 astrology, but it heralds the most significant structural changes to workforces, trade, governments and society since the Industrial Revolution. I can’t even begin to imagine what will happen later this year with the start of the 2025 to 2028 Magic Triangle.

Fixed star Markab at 23♓49 gives honor, riches, fortune, danger from fevers, cuts, blows, stabs and fire and a violent death. ^[1] Ambitions are not realized, unlucky, and subject to disgrace, ruin and violence is possible. ^[2]

With Saturn (0°21′): Born in poverty, prison or asylum, may be abandoned, a hard life, imprisoned for a crime, few friends, unfavorable for domestic matters, and death under similar conditions to birth. ^[1] Dangers from fire, weapons or explosions. ^[3]

New Moon March 2025 Spiritual Meaning

The March 29 new moon is a solar eclipse, making it more powerful and longer-lasting than a regular new moon. Although it makes no planetary aspects, it falls on the same degree that both Mercury and Venus stationed retrograde earlier this month.

So this new moon will reactivate similar themes and issues that you have been dealing with recently. It allows you to finalize, resolve and move on from those mainly challenging issues, especially once Mercury and Venus finish their retrograde cycles by April 12. The May 2025 solar eclipse also coincides with two of the most significant planetary alignments this year.

Saturn sextile Uranus on April 4 is making its presence felt already with technological breakthroughs that are dramatically changing our lives and sending shockwaves through governments and corporations. These are positive developments, but their initial impact is causing worry, fear and uncertainty, mainly because of the other significant alignment:

Mercury, Venus and Neptune have a negative effect because Mercury and Venus are retrograde, and they align with fixed star Scheat. This is causing confusion, lies, deception, insecurity and uncertainty, especially about the future. Our hopes and wishes for us and our children may need to adapt to the relentless changes taking place.

Finally, the Sun, Moon, Mercury, Venus, Saturn, Neptune and the north lunar Node are in Constellation Pegasus. These are stars of misfortune and make the spiritual meaning of the new moon in March 2025 astrology extremely challenging. They also increase the risk of escalating climate change and catastrophes.

This solar eclipse is a test of faith that causes fear about rapid change. It is more important than ever to stay true to your moral and ethical code. We are going through this chaotic period together, so reach out to someone to talk to.

Vladimir Lenin said, “There are decades where nothing happens, and there are weeks where decades happen.” This applies to the week and probably months ahead. This is the Age of Pegasus!

Important dates ahead:

• April 7: Mercury stations direct.
• April 12: Venus stations direct.
• April 25: Mercury conjuncts the eclipse degree.
• May 13: Venus conjuncts the eclipse degree.

Moon Phases

The March 29 solar eclipse influence combines with that of the March 14 lunar eclipse and stays effective up to the lunar eclipse on September 7, 2025. The March 14 lunar eclipse initiated positive changes that are significant, steady and structural. It brought initial restrictions and delays but gives intuition and flexibility to adapt to sudden change and take advantage of unexpected opportunities.
