March Zodiac Sign
People born in March are either Pisces or Aries. March birthday babies whose dates fall between March 1 and 20 are under the Pisces Zodiac. Those whose dates are from 21st till the end of the month share the Aries Zodiac.
As the first sign in the month of March, Pisces is a mutable water sign ruled by Neptune, the planet of creativity and dreams. This is why Pisces is super inclined in arts and magical thinking.
Jupiter as the second ruling planet is in charge of abundance and generosity, granting Pisces the gift of empathy and emotional understanding.
The Pisces symbol is represented by two fishes facing opposite directions; a reflection of their ambivalent nature.
The second Zodiac sign in the month of March is Aries — a cardinal fire sign that is ruled by Mars, the planet of war, desire, and competition.
The Aries astrological symbol is represented by the ram constellation whose horns symbolize virility and aggression, as well as the “head-on” approach that Aries take to problem-solving.
Together, these two Zodiacs make up the awesome March birthday personality. We are going to learn about their shared personalities in order to understand their collective contribution to making March a wholesome month to be born in.
March Born Personality

March-born babies are warm and passionate and have a way of lighting up any room they are in with their cheerful disposition. Their creativity levels up to none other as the prominent sign in March is known to hold the greatest artists and creatives of all the Zodiac.
March, the month of spring, goes hand in hand with optimism. People born in this month can be optimistic about almost everything. Although this, unfortunately, can leave them vulnerable to depression if things don’t work out as they wish.
