What is the March Zodiac Sign?

March zodiac sign

We all know that there are twelve signs of the zodiac and that each of them has its own unique set of traits and characteristics. What you might not know is exactly where each zodiac sign falls within the 12 months of the year. Do you know your Scorpio from your Sagittarius? Your Libra from your Leo? We’re here to help you, March babies, understand which zodiac sign you are and what that means in terms of traits.

What is the March zodiac sign?

There are, in fact, two zodiac signs that fall within the month of March.

If your birthday falls before and up to March 20th, then you are a Pisces.

If your birthday falls on and after March 21st, then you are an Aries.

March Pisces explained

If you’re born in March and your birthday falls before the 20th, then congratulations! You’re a creative, caring Pisces. Pisceans are born between February 19th and March 20th and are the twelfth sign of the zodiac.

Many people would assume that if you fall between these dates, then all Pisceans are the same. However, that isn’t always the case. Pisceans who are born in February and Pisceans who are born in March often have differing natures.

February-born Pisceans are purely Neptune-ruled, and as a result, they tend to embody the most classic Pisces traits. This means they are often seen as stereotypical Pisces, such as being ethereal, emotionally sensitive, and creative. They often have a tendency to daydream at any given opportunity.

However, when we move past February and into March, these Pisceans are often co-ruled by either the Moon (the planet of emotions) or Pluto (the planet of transformation). As a result, March Pisceans are more likely to be more secretive and mysterious than their open-hearted February equals. This comes as no surprise with the mysterious nightly Moon’s influence and Pluto’s dark underground influence. This results in March Pisceans being more private and intense.

Generally speaking, March Pisceans are like a hybrid of the classic Pisces traits but with the typical influence of the Moon or Pluto as their co-ruling planets. As a result, this emotional water sign tends to be more sensitive and can be more vulnerable to other people’s emotions than their February counterparts. As emotional and intuitive as your average February Pisces may be, their March buddies give them a run for their money. For March Pisces the moon governs emotions, moods, and how we process our feelings; hence why March Pisceans feel everything at a deeper level.

Pluto’s co-ruling influence over March Pisceans means they are often more mysterious and are less willing to wear their heart on their sleeve like February Pisceans. Pluto’s dark and intense nature gives March Pisceans a darker, mysterious, and deeper nature. Pluto is also considered a power-hungry and mighty planet, so those who are co-ruled by this influence are often more competitive and driven. Pisceans, in general, have a reputation for being creative daydreamers who aren’t usually rooted in the “real world.” Pluto’s nature gives these March-born babies an ambitious drive that sets them apart from their February counterparts. Ultimately, both signs share many admirable qualities, but their differences should be taken into account when considering compatibility.

When it comes to which March zodiac sign you are, March Pisceans can be summed up with these classic traits. For the full list of Pisces characteristics, check out 14 Strengths & Weaknesses of the Pisces Zodiac Sign.

Intuitive

Pisces born in March are known for their remarkable intuition and instinctive understanding of the emotions and feelings of those around them. This is all thanks to Pisces being a water sign, which means they are highly sensitive and connected to the universe’s energy. Since water has no boundaries, Pisces have an innate ability to sense what’s going on with people beyond verbal communication. They can feel what someone else is feeling even if they don’t express it outwardly, making them great empaths who can offer incredible insight into situations that many others may miss. If you consider this, along with the fact that they are co-ruled by either the Moon or Pluto (two planets known for their mysterious, dark, and intense qualities) it makes sense that March Pisceans would be so in tune with those around them. A Pisces born in March is probably full of wisdom and a great listener, both qualities that make for strong intuition.

Creative

March-born Pisces are creative by nature. With their element being water (which is known to stimulate imagination) it’s no wonder that Pisceans are known for their dreamy and creative nature. They have an innate ability to tune into their intuition and inner feelings, allowing them to come up with creative ideas and perspectives. Pisceans also have a strong connection to dreams, lending themselves to imaginative thought patterns. Pluto is a planet associated with achievement, hidden depth, and power. It’s no wonder, then, why March-born Pisces often find themselves pushing the boundaries of art and music, and thinking outside of the box when it comes to creative pursuits. With an enhanced sensitivity towards others’ emotions and a vivid imagination, these Pisceans can bring something special and unique to every project they take on. So if you’re looking for someone who can add a little extra emotional depth to any creative project you throw their way, you’ve found just the right sign.

Kind

Pisces, and specifically those born in the month of March, are known for their generous and caring nature. This is likely due to the influence of Pisces’ ruling planet, Neptune – a planet associated with creativity, imagination, and dreaming. When you move into March, these Pisceans are co-ruled by Pluto which gives their devotion and loyalty a deeper, more intense nature. It’s believed that these qualities make Pisces deeply empathetic and understanding of other people’s experiences. They are compassionate and willing to lend a helping hand, which explains why they’re so often seen as kind-hearted individuals. Their ability to connect with others on a deeper level allows them to be incredibly supportive in times of need. So if you happen to know a Pisces born in March, consider yourself lucky because you just might have a friend for life.

Sensitive

The sensitivity of March Pisces is likely due to the influence of both Neptune and the Moon. As previously mentioned, Neptune imparts a daydream-like nature that allows Pisceans to be creative and dream big. On the other hand, the Moon grants them an emotional and sentimental nature when it comes to relationships which makes them highly sensitive toward others’ feelings. This heightened emotionality also makes March Pisces highly intuitive, as they can pick up on subtle nuances or energies that most people don’t notice. Finally, because they are so in tune with their emotions, they have no problem expressing themselves, making them very expressive individuals who feel deeply about everything around them. All of these factors come together to create incredibly sensitive individuals who wear their hearts on their sleeves.

Empathetic

The empathetic nature of March Pisces is largely due to their deep emotional and intuitive qualities. These individuals can easily connect with others on a profound level, allowing them to understand and relate to how they’re feeling. This is also down to their co-ruling planet the Moon (a planet deeply connecting with our feelings and emotions). By being so emotionally in tune, they are often able to sense what someone else is going through without even having to ask. This makes them incredibly supportive friends who are always willing to lend an ear or a shoulder when needed. Additionally, their kind-heartedness allows them to put themselves in other people’s shoes, meaning they can empathize with their situation more easily. All of these traits combined create the compassionate and understanding characters that make March Pisces such great confidantes and friends.

March Aries explained

If you’re born in March and your birthday falls on or after the 21st, then congratulations! You’re a bold, passionate Aries. Aries are born between March 21st and April 19th and are the first sign of the zodiac.

Many people would assume that if you fall between these dates, then all Aries are the same. However, that isn’t always the case. Aries who are born in March and Aries who are born in April often have differing natures.

March-born Aries are purely Mars-ruled, and as a result, they tend to embody the most classic Aries traits. This means they tend to be seen as a stereotypical Aries, such as being confident, charming, and generous. They often have a tendency to take the lead at any given opportunity.

However, when we move past March and into April, these Aries are often co-ruled by either the sun (the planet of power) or Jupiter (the planet of adventure). As a result, April Aries are likely to be more confident and courageous than their March equals. This comes as no surprise with the red-hot central power of the sun and Jupiter’s successful and optimistic influence. This results in April Aries being more risk-taking and outgoing.
