4 Key Personality Traits of People Born in March
- People born in March fall under the zodiac signs of Pisces or Aries, with Pisceans being creatives and empaths while Aries are action-oriented and courageous.
Were you born in March? Whether you adore the chilly, hibernation-fueling days of wintertime or you're someone who looks forward to the first hint of greenery budding in the spring, March has something to offer you. It's one of those moments that is so changeable and can't help but serve as a bridge between two very different experiences: icy, long, dark nights that increasingly lead to more brightness, lightness that lays the groundwork for full-blown spring fever. This transition mirrors the month's changeable, visionary vibe, colored by March's astrological energies.
Perhaps you're a March-born person yourself, or you care about someone who is. Either way, you'll do well to read on to understand how the third month of the year influences a person's perspective, strengths, and even challenges.
The Astrology of Being Born in March
People born in March fall under one of two zodiac signs : spiritual Pisces (February 19 - March 20) or bold Aries (March 21 - April 19). Pisceans, represented by the Fish, are creatives and empaths whose spiritually astute and deeply emotional nature makes them innate healers. As the mutable water sign, they're adaptable but might also struggle with passivity. On the other hand, people born under Aries, represented by the Ram, are characterized by their action-oriented, courageous, go-getter nature and desire to race through life, sometimes acting before thinking. As the cardinal fire sign, they are competitive big picture thinkers who chomp at the bit to take the initiative and pursue their ambitious dreams.
That said, people born in March tend to let their imaginations run wild and then leverage that vision as a vibrant source of motivation. They're also able to pivot from one thing to the next without too much of a struggle, which reflects the fact that they came into the world during a month that serves as a bridge between winter and spring and is therefore marked by perpetually changing, transformative energies.
4 Core Personality Traits of Those Born in March
1. Capable of Dreaming Big
Born into the world during a time when inspiration is sure to strike, because there's just so much potential on the horizon, thanks to the days getting longer and brighter, slowly but surely, results in being a dreamer and a doer. People who have more whimsical Pisces in their birth charts do tend to connect with their imagination in a more spiritual, passive way than people who have a stronger fiery Aries influence, but anyone who comes into the world during the month that plays host to the Spring Equinox is bound to be a bold visionary.
2. Open-minded
Because they came into the world at a time of year when the ground makes way for life to sprout through the hard earth, March-born people are innately willing to consider different ways of thinking or moving through life. They're not likely to dig their heels in or feel like the way they go about pursuing their goals or thinking about others is the only way, as their spirited point of view encourages them to explore a wide variety of perspectives and a range of strategies.
3. Spirited
Whether they're energetically diving into a creative undertaking or enthusiastically rooting for their favorite team, people who come into the world around the Spring Equinox know how to pour their hearts into something they care about. They're happy to get swept up in the moment, eager to have a fulfilling experience in the moment all while working toward the finish line they're holding in mind. Though Pisces-dominant people might be happier to go with the flow on their way to their endgame than Aries-dominant people who are more focused on achievement, both bring a lot of enthusiasm to endeavors they're passionate about.
4. Wide-Eyed
People born in March can be a bit innocent, childlike, and full of wonder. After all, this is the month that hosts the kickoff of a whole new astrological cycle as the sun moves into Aries, which fuels the feeling that everything is fresh and full of possibility. You can rely on March-born people to bring this eager, lighthearted point of view to the table, whether they're connecting with others in a group or bonding one-on-one. It can be illuminating to see the world through their optimistic, playful perspective.
