The astrologer named the zodiac signs most affected by the lunar eclipse.

The lunar eclipse, which peaks on March 3, will be felt until March 5. Its influence will be most noticeable in Pisces and Virgo, emotional fluctuations are also possible in Sagittarius and, to a lesser extent, in Gemini. Alena Grieg, founder of the ASTROGRIG School of European Astrology, told Izvestia on March 3.

According to the expert, for most people, this event will pass almost unnoticed, since the eclipse is a short—term phenomenon. But those who were born during the eclipse and those with significant planets in the natal chart located in Pisces, Virgo, Sagittarius or Gemini may be more sensitive to it.

As the astrologer noted, an eclipse can affect different areas of life depending on the sign. For example, Pisces may experience the return of old contacts, the appearance of important information, or increased intuition.

"For Virgos, the situation is different: maybe you will be asked to repay the debt, you will want cleansing and detox. Do not deny yourself this pleasure. If someone leaves your life during this period, it's for the best," she said.

Sagittarians are likely to have obsessive thoughts and an increased tendency to reason, while Gemini may experience fatigue and irritability. A more positive background is predicted for Cancers and Scorpios — unexpected insights or lucky circumstances are possible. Taurus is recommended to use the period to complete previously postponed tasks, while Capricorns, on the contrary, reduce activity and pay attention to rest.
