The Month Of March in the Tarot!

The Month March is all about how to utilize the energy of the invisible and loss.  As we exit February and enter Pisces and Aries season, we exit the energy of space and start relying on one’s intuition–an analysis of one’s environment and that which might be hidden. The nature of March's energy reminds us that it is okay to remain stagnant at times in order to process one’s surroundings. Sometimes staying still is all that you need to get through the obstacle at hand. 

Part of March’s importance is about allowing yourself to get lost deep in thought or emotion. To have the strength and courage to dive to one’s mental depths–whether that being shadow work, or to revisit an emotionally turbulent experience. We all stuff things down in the rush of life and March is a fantastic month to emulate the energy of Pisces and to sit with it.

This month will have an energy that might feel disorienting, possibly even overwhelming. There might even be a feeling of being lost. Now is the time to embrace the depths of your emotions and to remain positive about letting yourself feel it. There is no need to hold shame for how long it takes to move forward, nor to minimize its importance in your own life. There is a reason that this certain event, experience, even memory could be overwhelming to address or heal from.

Since Aries dominates most of March, you might find yourself embodying traits similar to a determined Cardinal sign! Aries energy is bold, headstrong, and fiercely independent, making it difficult to shift gears once you've set your sights on something. Embrace the fiery spirit of Aries by tapping into your creativity and unapologetic individuality. Aries natives are known for their fearless authenticity and willingness to take risks—sometimes impulsively! Let this energy inspire you to take bold steps toward your goals.

 

The first third of the month, roughly 9 days, will be represented by The Hanged Man card and The Moon.

The Hanged Man teaches us that surrendering to time is not the same as giving up—it’s about allowing life to unfold without forcing an outcome. When we feel stuck or uncertain, our first instinct is often to struggle against it, to push forward even when we don’t know the right direction. But sometimes, the only way out of a situation is through stillness.

This card asks you to trust that time is working in your favor, even when it feels like nothing is happening. Growth isn’t always visible; sometimes, it’s happening beneath the surface, in the spaces between action. The discomfort of waiting, of not knowing, is part of the lesson. What if the clarity you seek isn’t something to chase, but something that arrives when you finally stop running?

Instead of resisting stagnation, embrace it. Use this time to shift your perspective, to see things from a different angle. The Hanged Man reminds us that breakthroughs often come in moments of surrender—when we stop trying to force control and instead allow the universe to reveal its plan in its own time.

The Moon is a card of illusion, intuition, and the hidden depths of the subconscious. It asks you to surrender to the unknown, not by seeking control, but by learning to navigate uncertainty with trust. Right now, you may feel lost in a fog, unsure of what is real and what is simply a reflection of fear, doubt, or illusion. The Moon reminds you that clarity doesn’t always come immediately—sometimes, you have to sit in the darkness before the light returns.

This card teaches us that not everything is meant to be understood right away. When life feels uncertain, it’s easy to grasp for answers, to demand immediate clarity. But the Moon asks you to slow down and trust that time will reveal what is hidden. Like the tides that it controls, this card speaks to the natural ebb and flow of life—some moments are clear, while others are clouded in mystery. Instead of fighting against confusion, allow yourself to be still. Let your intuition guide you, even when logic cannot.

What are you afraid to see? What illusions are you holding onto? The Moon asks you to lean into your inner knowing rather than external validation. The path ahead may not be fully visible yet, but that doesn’t mean you aren’t moving forward. Surrender to the process, trust your instincts, and allow the truth to reveal itself in its own time.

 

The Second Third of the Month isn't nearly as complex and is represented by the Eight, Nine, and Ten of Cups.

This period calls for emotional exploration, fulfillment, and release. The Eight of Cups asks you to recognize when something no longer serves you and to have the courage to walk away. This is a time for quiet reflection—what have you outgrown? Where are you holding on out of fear rather than genuine alignment? Let yourself detach from what no longer fulfills you.

The Nine of Cups reminds you to embrace joy, gratitude, and emotional satisfaction. After releasing what no longer resonates, you create space for fulfillment. This week, take note of the small pleasures, the moments of contentment, and the things that bring you peace. You are allowed to feel good. What would it look like to bask in your own accomplishments without waiting for external validation?

The Ten of Cups symbolizes emotional harmony and deeper connections. Whether within yourself, with others, or with the universe, this is a time of integration. After seeking clarity and fulfillment, how do you share that joy? How do you allow emotional abundance to flow freely? This card asks you to trust in the journey—contentment isn’t about perfection, but about embracing the love and support that surrounds you.

This part of the month is about acknowledging what needs to be left behind, embracing joy in the present, and opening your heart to deeper emotional fulfillment. Move forward with trust, knowing that emotional evolution is a natural and necessary process.

 

We have finally made it to the end of the month! The last week or so is represented by the Knight of Cups.

The Knight of Cups invites you to move through life with emotional depth, creativity, and an open heart. This is a time to lean into your feelings and intuition, allowing them to guide you rather than resisting their flow. Like a traveler on a romantic quest, the Knight of Cups encourages you to stay connected to your dreams and approach situations with curiosity and emotional awareness.

As you wrap up the month, reflect on how you have engaged with your emotions. Have you allowed yourself to express what you feel? Have you followed your heart, or have you been holding back out of fear? The Knight of Cups asks you to embrace emotional vulnerability while also maintaining balance—being guided by your emotions without being consumed by them.

This card also speaks to creativity and inspiration. You may find yourself drawn to artistic expression, deep conversations, or moments of beauty that stir your soul. Allow yourself to be moved. Rather than rushing to the next thing, savor the sensations, the connections, and the emotions that surface at this time.

Life, much like the Knight of Cups’ journey, is not about forcing a destination—it’s about experiencing the depth of the path you walk. Let this be a time of reflection, emotional exploration, and embracing the fluidity of life as you move forward into the next chapter.

Some questions to ask oneself this month can include:

"How do I allow myself to sit with uncertainty instead of resisting it?"

"Where in my life do I need to surrender rather than force an outcome?"

"What emotions or memories have I been avoiding, and how can I create space to process them?"

"How do I embrace stillness as a part of growth, rather than seeing it as stagnation?"

"What illusions have been clouding my perception, and how can I see things more clearly?"

"What is something I’ve outgrown that I need to release?"

"Where have I been holding onto fear instead of trusting my intuition?"

"How can I channel my emotions into creativity and self-expression?"

"What dreams or desires have been calling to me, and how can I take small steps toward them?"

"How do I balance emotional depth with emotional regulation?"
