Moon Calendar — March 2023
The Moon's zodiac sign for every day of March 2023, with sign-change times and all four phases — computed from real planetary positions. Times are UTC.
The Moon in March 2023
In March 2023 the Moon changes zodiac sign 14 times and passes through all 12 signs. It starts the month in Cancer on March 1 and ends it in Leo on March 31. Counting the sign it occupies at noon UTC each day, it spends the most days in Cancer (6 days), Leo (3 days) and Virgo (3 days).
The main lunar phases this month are: Full Moon on March 7 in Virgo, Last Quarter on March 15 in Sagittarius, New Moon on March 21 in Aries and First Quarter on March 29 in Cancer.
For context: the Moon circles the zodiac in about 27.3 days, so it usually stays in one sign for roughly 2 to 2.5 days before moving on. Its phases follow the longer synodic month of about 29.5 days — the time from one new moon to the next — which is why each phase lands on a different date every month. All times here are UTC, so a sign change or phase near midnight may fall on the neighboring date in your time zone.
