Weekly love horoscopes are here for March 16 – 22, 2026. It’s a week of passion and romance for each zodiac sign. The New Moon rises in Pisces on March 18, bringing about a powerful wave of intuition and emotional energy. We’re able to feel deeply in touch with others, so you might suddenly see someone in a different light. Venus squares Jupiter on the same day, which is typically positive for relationships and social activities since you’ll desire companionship and love.
The Sun joins Venus in Aries on March 20, the same day the Spring Equinox takes place and Mercury turns direct. Though Mercury retrograde is over, we are not out of the woods just yet. When a planet is stationing, it is at its most powerful, so there are more surprises in store as we find out more information. Misunderstandings due to a lack of clarity or confusion as to where others are coming from are still likely, so use careful communication. Mercury’s station in Pisces lasts until the 24th, so it is better not to start new things until Mercury begins to move forward on March 25th or later.
