Your lookahead horoscope: March 1, 2026

IF TODAY IS YOUR BIRTHDAY

You cannot change the world but you can change things about yourself that make it easier to see the world in a happier light. It is your own thoughts, feelings and actions that will make the biggest difference this year. Ignore everything else.

IF TODAY IS YOUR BIRTHDAY

You will need to confront some kind of fear as the new week begins. You may be courageous by nature but there are still things that get you worried and one of those things cannot be allowed to upset you any longer. Bring it into the open.

ARIES (March 21 – April 20):

The message of the stars for the coming week is that you must give yourself permission to dream. As one of the zodiac’s earth signs you may be practical to a fault but sometimes a little reverie can be a good thing. Such a time is now.

TAURUS (April 21 – May 21):

Your destiny is very much in your own hands at the moment and with Mars moving into the career area of your chart this week you can pretty much write your own future. What would you do if you knew you could not fail? So do it!

GEMINI (May 22 – June 21):

The adventurous side of your nature has been coming to the fore a lot over the past week or so but that will be nothing compared to what occurs over the next few days. Your confidence is such that there won’t be a single doubt in your mind.

CANCER (June 22 – July 23):

As Mars moves into the wealth area of your chart this week you won’t be short of ideas to improve your financial situation, but don’t get carried away. Where joint money matters are concerned get approval from your partners before taking action.

LEO (July 24 – Aug. 23):

Partners and loved ones will become a lot more demanding over the next few days but in a way that could be a good thing in that it forces you to be more demanding of yourself. You’ve tried taking the easy route, now do it right.

VIRGO (Aug. 24 – Sept. 23):

Don’t go too far as the new week begins because the influence of Mars in the wellbeing area of your chart could lead to you overestimating your capabilities. A step at a time in the right direction will take you where you need to go.

LIBRA (Sept. 24 – Oct. 23):

You may be eager to get started on a new project but have you done the necessary groundwork? If you have planned in depth and got the backing of friends and colleagues then by all means get going. If not, lay those foundations first.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24 – Nov. 22):

If you cut back on your social life over the next few days you will have more time and energy to spend on your family. Mars in the domestic area of your chart will encourage you to reach out to the people who love you the most.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23 – Dec. 21):

You have been far too serious of late and need to inject some fun into your life. With Mars joining the sun and Venus in the most outgoing area of your chart this week this is the perfect time to forget about work and take a vacation.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 – Jan. 20):

Some of the many projects you set in motion since the start of the year are beginning to pay off. Enjoy the good things that come your way but if it’s money you make don’t just spend it all again – put some aside for a rainy day.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 21 – Feb. 19):

Mars joins the sun, Mercury and Venus in your sign this week, so the focus is very much on you now. Not only will you be in the spotlight but your every word and action will be examined in depth, so watch what you say and do.
