Amiga, did Pisces season have you swimming in the depths of your most hidden insecurities? There could have been a lot of confusion about trusting your gut feeling as you navigated Pisces season because of its Neptune-ruled dynamic, which enjoys living in a pendulum between optimism and Delulu land. You have now exited an ascension portal with the closure of Pisces season, and any lack of clarity that was presented to you was a means to measure your intuitive radar as you continue healing and growing.

What to Expect This Aries Season
The first Mercury retrograde of the year is transiting in the sign of fiery Aries. Have no fear because we have your Mercury Retrograde How-To Guide for Entrepreneurs that you can reference through the year when it’s time to visit the pending two ahead of the year in August and November. This Mercury retrograde will begin in Aries during Aries season on April 1st and will end its retrograde motion by going direct on April 25th. It’s to be dramatic and transformative and will push you into your next big breakthrough because of its accompanying companion of the April 8th Aries Solar Eclipse. But not before making sure you’re confident in your self-worth. Aries is all about your personal identity and your self-assurance and can be a bit self-centered. The start of the month will provide you with opportunities to double down on your desires, but you have to be absolutely sure and not self-doubt your abundance mindset.
There will be a prior Lunar Eclipse in the sign of Libra on March 25th that will bring some love into Aries season. Relationships in the romance sector and business sector will have to confront pending evolution. You know what they say, “evolve or repeat.” Since it is a lunar eclipse, this will bring major endings and closure to relationships that have no other karmic choice but to end if they’re not in alignment with your highest good. This is what happens when you vibrate at a higher frequency, there’s no settling and only onwards and upwards from here.
Rituals for Aries Season
Overall, any deceit, delusions, or doubt from earlier in the year will come full circle for a confident review as you’ll know how to proceed forward with assured knowledge brought to you by Aries season. This is especially a great time to take on new projects, launch campaigns, and initiate new relationships or partnerships. In business, it’s time to pitch yourself because Aries season brings a zest of enthusiasm with it. Optimize the good juju by performing confidence rituals and self-love affirmations to capitalize off its energy.
Wearing red, which is the color assigned to Aries, can boost your aura and influence others. This is a power color. Therefore, rocking a perfect red lip from your favorite Latina-owned business would be a phenomenal beauty ritual to tap into at this time. Not a lipstick person? Opt for red nails or red underwear. You know we Latines love an underwear ritual. If you have a big meeting coming up that you need to feel grounded for or are in need of assurance, the red underwear is a great way to get your divine feminine manifestations going.
Here’s what the stars have to say. Read on for your rising and sun sign’s Aries astrological zodiac horoscope to get in on the planetary party.
Aries or Aries Rising (March 20 – April 19)

You are the bestie in the group that goes to bat for all your homegirls and wants to see everyone on your team win, and for that, we thank you. This Aries season is particularly memorable thanks to the simultaneous Mercury retrograde and Solar Eclipse happening in your home sign.

You will be the talk of the town, and many things will be drawn to you due to your heightened sense of magnetism. Enjoy!
Taurus or Taurus Rising (April 20 – May 20)
It’s a season of completions and graduation. There have been some tough lessons in your recent past that you’re now putting an end to. Mercury is retrograding in your twelfth house of karmic endings and spiritual perspective. If you’ve felt there were things left unsaid or nostalgia for a time that once was, you might revisit said experience and ask for closure. Equally, you’re filled with ideas at this time worth pursuing. However, watch your words because you could be temperamental and easily provoked, which is not your usual. Money and finances are of peak interest to you this Aries season, and you have the opportunity to increase your wealth if you go after what you desire. And so it is.
Gemini or Gemini Rising (May 21 – June 20)
Friendship woes will keep you busy this Aries season. You could feel like you don’t fit in with the crowd, and you might want to explore new social sectors. You’ll have the bravery and enthusiasm to put yourself outside of your comfort zone in order to meet new, inspiring people. On a professional note, it’s a great time for your creative pursuits. This is a season to launch that small business or start selling products you’ve always wanted to design. You could lean towards being entrepreneurially focused. Let your inner child lead the way.
Cancer or Cancer Rising (June 21 – July 21)
Business is looking good for you, Cancer. The Solar Eclipse is transiting your tenth house of career and profession. It intends to pave optimistic paths forward. Think of this Aries season as one big abre camino (open roads) ritual. Do this when you want to enter new areas of life or start new chapters. This is a time to perform your candle magic and do your manifestation rituals because you have some big blessings headed your way. Career is steady, but you might feel some uncertainty in the romance department. If you’re single and ready for love, a new relationship could be headed your way within the next six months.
Leo or Leo Rising (July 22 – Aug. 22)
It’s a season of new insight and wisdom. You will be sought after in your personal and professional sectors for advice by many. This season is positioning you as someone with wisdom and who can provide a safe space for others. You would benefit by exploring new spiritual philosophies and engaging in spiritual communities. You’re also going to experience a lot of communication from the angelic realm, thanks to all the transits. If you’re considering furthering your education or taking up learning a new subject, this is a divine sign to proceed forward. Go for it, and watch the money come back from the investment.
Virgo or Virgo Rising (Aug. 23 – Sep. 22)
This is an intense month for you, however, with unexpected losses following unexpected gains. There is an extreme release ritual you’ll have to undergo as it relates to the rebirth cycle. An old way of life must die in order to ascend into your birthright blessings. Money will not be an issue this month. You could even anticipate money from unplanned matters like inheritances, loans, settlements or other recreational activities. You could find out some good news when it comes to taxes as well. Aside from the mundane, placing intention on revamping your image isn’t too far-fetched. If you feel deeply called to undergo a personal or professional rebrand, this will shock many in a good way. You are entering your Lilith era.
Libra or Libra Rising (Sep. 23 – Oct. 22)
It’s a fortunate season to petition collaborations. You’re coming off as charitable and social and your personal is well-liked at this time. Any sort of blockages or malicious energy sent your way is being reversed. There will be no need for you to lower your vibration; therefore, trust in the divine alignment. If you’re looking for work, a big offer could make its way in by Cancer season. Equally, you’re changing your outlook on life, and with that comes a new identity. A move or work transition is a possibility for those who resonate with such. It is very likely that you’ll tap into new resources from the connections you know. Be sure to leverage your connections this Aries season and watch success unfold.
Scorpio or Scorpio Rising (Oct. 23 – Nov. 21)
Are you itching for a change? You might feel like life has become monotonous. Consider changing up your daily routine or how you perform in your work. It’s a good time to take on new responsibilities or release roles that don’t feel like they serve your growth. Beware of becoming impulsive because you are a fixed-sign, but you’re quick to pivot. Stay grounded this month, and be sure to think things through carefully. Mercury retrograde especially inspires you to take your health more seriously. Inserting new healthy habits has the potential to become a consistent lifestyle for the remainder of the year if applied now.
Sagittarius or Sagittarius Rising (Nov. 22 – Dec. 20)
You can anticipate many opportunities coming your way this Aries season. You are feeling invigorated and ready to take on more in life. Most especially in business and with projects you’re passionate about. Personally, there is a deep calling to reconnect with your inner child which could bloom naturally. Don’t be surprised if children naturally gravitate to your aura this month. You’re vibrating in a very playful and creative capacity that welcomes other inspiring forces. If you’re intent on matters in love, Mercury Retrograde wants you to be more proactive with what you desire in this realm. Don’t hesitate to take the lead when it comes to love and share your honest opinion. It will pay off.
Capricorn or Capricorn Rising (Dec. 21 – Jan. 19)
There’s a looming sense of unspoken stability that you’re innately feeling thanks to this Aries energy. All is looking good at home, money, and nothing is rocking the boat at this time. You might feel called to revisit your online personal. Utilizing digital media to assert your goals will go over favorably. That could look like launching a successful email campaign or hiring a social media strategy to build a company strategy. If you’re a one-person team, social media will bring in more business and clientele than usual this month, which will make it worth paying attention to. Since you’ll be in the midst of a Mercury Retrograde, you’ll especially want to be mindful of signing contracts at this time and keep an eye out for typos. Overall, it’s a calm month.
Aquarius or Aquarius Rising (Jan. 20 – Feb. 17)
They say back up your tech and data during a Mercury Retrograde, which is most certainly true. But this will be amplified for you, Aqua. Be cautious of surfing the web and your online identity. This Mercury Retrograde could affect your technology or car or create travel issues. Have no fear, trust the process and slow down to realign when such hiccups occur. As an air sign, you’re always moving fast. This is a month of introspection and making more time to rest. You’ll want to consider opportunities that allow you to self-express and communicate. This isn’t hard for you as an Aquarius. Therefore, take up those speaking gigs, record a podcast episode, or journal to work through triggers. This will be extremely cathartic for you.
Pisces or Pisces Rising (Feb. 18 – March 20)
You’re noticing the value you bring to the workplace and wondering how appreciated said skills are by others that you directly engage with. There’s a need for you to expand your mind and your talents at this time. You’re also seeking validation. By reconnecting with your own healthy self-worth, you can pull away from any emotions that might feel like they’re weighing you down. There’s an emphasis on sharing your resources with others. Don’t refrain from giving or extending a helping hand if you can. It will present you with good karma in the long run. Money will be a priority this month and you might feel like you’re burning it fast with unexpected expenses. Money comes and money flows. And so it is.
