The month of March is considered to be the month of new beginnings as it marks the transition between Winter to Spring. The latter tends to represent themes of growth and renewal, which align with the theory’s claim that people seek closure and healing through new relationships in the month.
March also marks the advent of Aries season which is the first month of the astrological calendar. March 2025, in particular, has been a cosmic rollercoaster. With Venus and Mercury in retrograde, last week’s lunar eclipse and the upcoming new moon solar eclipse, the relationship shakeup doesn’t seem very far-fetched.
Whether you believe in the theory or not, it could be a good time to step back and evaluate your relationship and think about how it aligns with your future goals for yourself.
