Sunday 1st March
We begin March with the Moon rising in Cancer, carrying soft watery forces of nourishment and care, inviting us to tend, sow, water, and protect what wishes to root and gather strength. By evening, the Moon moves into Leo, shifting from water to fire and encouraging confidence and creative warmth. In old Persian tradition, four bright stars were known as the royal stars because they marked the four directions and helped people orient themselves through the seasons. These were Aldebaran in Taurus, Regulus in Leo, Antares in Scorpio, and Fomalhaut in Aquarius.
As the Moon approaches Leo and Regulus, often called the heart of the Lion, we are gently guided from inward tenderness to outward courage, holding water and fire in balance as the new month begins.
