Mighty Mars shoves its way through flowy Pisces from March 22 to April 30, 2024, the first time since 2022! Here’s what to expect during the Mars in Pisces transit, plus your horoscope.

Mars in Pisces is not exactly directional—but it IS quite dreamy.

Going with the flow could be the quickest path to productivity for the next five and a half weeks as make-it-happen Mars floats into dreamy Pisces.

Just as you sit down to focus on your daily tasks, you could get diverted by your imagination, or some other random but intriguing quest. How to deal? Carve out time for creativity, but keep one eye on the clock. Reminder alarms are a saving grace during a Mars in Pisces transit cycle.

What does Mars in Pisces mean?

This cycle is a time to lean into the courage of warrior Mars and the compassion of peacekeeper Pisces.

The Mars in Pisces cycle is an ideal time for:

plumbing the depths
exploring life’s mysteries
bringing more compassion into daily your interactions
healing a wound/getting to the core of a traumatic emotional pattern

In other words: add more soul to your goals. Think about how you can:

uplift others
make them feel seen
let them know they’re valued
inspire others

The Fairy Tale Potential of This Mars in Pisces Transit

Life could resemble a page-turning fairy tale as lusty Mars joins Venus in Pisces (until April 5). During this passionate, poetic cycle, love’s fast-moving current could sweep you off to enchanted shores.

But since Pisces is the sign of healing and fantasy, you could get pulled into a quixotic or even clandestine attraction. Part of you will relish getting caught up in these wild feelings, but deception (including self-deception) could be at play.

This transit is ideal for a couple’s retreat or long-overdue healing work.

In an increasingly divided world, this Mars phase can act as a soothing salve and, since Pisces rules the feet, an invitation to walk a mile in each other’s shoes. It’s time to shift your closest relationships—and the collective conscience—by choosing love over fear and hate.

Aquarius (January 20-February 18) Mars in Pisces transit horoscope

Go-getter Mars cruises into your second house money zone, blessing you with the Midas touch from March 22 to April 30 (and beyond).

You’ve been hosting the red planet since February 16, which no doubt brought a whirlwind of visionary ideas. During the Mars in Pisces transit, you’ll FINALLY have the focus you need to get into production mode.

Mars’ agitating energy can also lead to overspending, especially when it comes to luxury items. Tension with coworkers may heat up too, especially if you get a little too “Martian” on them (read: bossy, aggressive and intimidating). Don’t forget your role is as the zodiac’s team player, Aquarius, not military dictator. Aquarius Daily Horoscope: Read Yours!

Pisces (February 19-March 20) Mars in Pisces transit horoscope

Mermaid unleashed! Red-hot Mars grooves into Pisces from March 22 to April 30, blessing you with added passion and productivity. If you’ve been dragging your fins, it’s time to take action.

This may require you to make a clean break from any wild goose chases you’ve been racing on.

Caution: Stress levels can rise when Mars visits your first house, making it uber-important to exercise and burn off angst. Most of all, be self-directed. Mars only visits Pisces every other year, prompting bold, fearless action. Put yourself first. When you’re successful, everyone’s successful—that’s how generous Pisces rolls.

Where will Mars be in 2024?

Mars is also the last of the personal inner planets—the planets before Jupiter which are closest to the Sun. The red planet hangs out in a zodiac sign for approximately 6-8 weeks, directing the global temperament and fighting style.
