New Moon in Pisces – March 18, 2026

New Moon in Pisces – March 18, 2026

Get ready for some deep, introspective vibes with this New Moon in Pisces. Happening just two days before we move into Aries season, this New Moon is both a beginning and a bit of a conclusion as we close out Pisces season with it.

This is the perfect time to lean into the quiet, intuitive, and inner world-centered energy of Pisces to take stock of the year. The start of Aries season is the astrological new year, so as you set intentions this time around, be sure to also review the past 12 months. What do you want more of? What do you want to avoid? How do you want to be for the next year?

Plus, seven cosmic bodies are in water signs at the same time, so the New Moon is sure to usher in lots of emotions, creativity, and sensitivity. Use this time to hone your dream magick practice or re-engage with a creative hobby you’ve lost track of recently.

Listen to the messages that come through during your practice, dreams, meditations, and daydreams. They’re likely to bring more insights to your life if you allow them the space to show up.

As for those seven planets and luminaries in water signs at the same time? That would be the Sun, Moon, Mercury (retrograde still!), Venus, Mars, and Neptune all in Pisces, and Jupiter in Cancer. So that’s the planets of communication, love, action/anger, and dreams and illusions in Pisces, with the planet of expansion also in a water sign.

So…yeah, it might be intense, but not in an outward way. Instead, you might find yourself getting wrapped up in your inner world. Make sure to debrief weird conversations with a trusted bestie and practice self-care.

Pisces season is an interesting liminal space between Aquarius season, which is all about innovation, quick change, and progress, and fiery Aries season, when we’re celebrating the return of Spring. We’ve also just completed an eclipse season, which upended ideas about our outer world.

Now, we’ve been in a space of softer interaction with the world, releasing our defenses a bit, and tapping into the unseen just a bit more than usual. The New Moon in Pisces is the pinnacle of Pisces season, so all the inner work you’ve been doing the past couple of weeks may pay off for you this lunation. It’s time to trust yourself.
