As we glide into March, the stars are ready to influence your runs—whether you’re carving perfect turns, exploring new trails, or enjoying a little downtime after a day on the slopes. With Mercury Retrograde making its usual appearance, there may be a few unexpected twists and turns ahead. But fear not! The universe has your back this month, offering opportunities for growth, adventure, and connection. So, let the cosmos be your guide as you take on everything Sugarbush has to offer!
Pisces ♓
(February 19 – March 20)
Neptune’s influence makes you want to take it slow, enjoying the beauty of a good fixed grip, like North Lynx or Inverness, while letting your mind wander. However, Saturn’s grounding energy asks you to focus on technique and not get lost in daydreams about après-ski. Mercury Retrograde might bring some tech confusion (maybe your phone dies or you lose track of time), but it’s all part of the cosmic plan. Check your gear and embrace the moment—there’s no rush.
Aries ♈
(March 21 – April 19)
With Mercury Retrograde pulling its usual antics from March 14 to April 7, don’t be surprised if you’re not syncing with your crew on the lift. Expect a few mix-ups in communication, like hitting the wrong trail or forgetting your gloves in the lodge. But the energetic vibe of Mars has you charging the moguls down Castlerock like you’re in a race, no matter what. Saturn’s grounding influence says take a breather on the lift before your next send-off. Just be ready for surprises!
Taurus ♉
(April 20 – May 20)
Jupiter is helping you stick to the reliable and steady, so expect your runs down Jester to feel like a smooth glide. No need for risky behavior—this month is about savoring the consistency of your favorite trails. But with Neptune in Pisces, your mind might wander on those relaxed runs, maybe dreaming of a perfect après-ski moment at Allyn’s Lodge? Just don’t get too distracted, Mercury Retrograde might lead to a random miscommunication.
Gemini ♊
(May 21 – June 20)
Mercury Retrograde means you’ll be second-guessing your plans, especially as you hop between the Super Bravo and North Lynx trying to hit everything in one go. You’ll love the diversity of Sugarbush but be warned—the universe might have you running in circles. Saturn’s influence, though, keeps your mind focused for long enough to tackle Castlerock with some precision. Don’t let the mix-ups on the lifts throw you off. You got this!
Cancer ♋
(June 21 – July 22)
This month, Neptune’s dreamy influence makes you feel connected to the mountain—every tree on Brambles and every bump on Spillsville is calling your name. But Saturn in Pisces is grounding your approach. You’ll want to slow down, savor the slopes, and not rush. Expect Mercury Retrograde to throw some communication curveballs. Stay calm, check the app, and let the mountain bring you peace.
Leo ♌
(July 23 – August 22)
It’s all about style for you this month, Leo. Mercury Retrograde might lead to some minor gear glitches or lift line confusion, but you won’t let that slow you down—especially on your Slide Brook runs. You’re all about the flair, and Pluto’s in Aquarius, pushing you to break out of your usual ski routine. Maybe this is the time to try a new trick, or tackle a line you’ve been eyeing. Confidence is key—if you feel like hitting that jump, go for it! Saturn says just check the landing first.
Virgo ♍
(August 23 – September 22)
Virgo, you’re always perfecting your technique, and Saturn’s influence is helping you dial in every turn. Expect the GMX and Super Bravo to be your playground as you work on precision. But Mercury Retrograde might lead to a small distraction here and there—maybe a ski pole gets left at the top of Summit or you forget your helmet in the lodge. No worries—Saturn’s steady influence will keep you on track. And hey, you’ll get more practice as you head back up!
Libra ♎
(September 23 – October 22)
With Mercury Retrograde pulling your attention in different directions, you might have a hard time picking a trail—maybe you find yourself stuck in indecision while trying to get to Super Bravo or Valley House. The good news? Jupiter’s steadying influence is helping you find your groove by midday, and North Lynx’s easy-going nature gives you space to regain your flow. Just make sure you check in with your group about where you’re meeting at the bottom. You’ll get through it—just don’t forget to enjoy the sunshine.
Scorpio ♏
(October 23 – November 21)
This is your month to tackle those steep, technical runs, Scorpio. With Pluto in Aquarius shaking things up, expect to take some risks—maybe a double black diamond challenge or a tree line you’ve always eyed but never tried. The dreamy vibes from Neptune in Pisces make you feel like you’re in the zone. But be warned—Mercury Retrograde might lead to a miscommunication with a fellow skier, so always double-check that your line is clear before taking off. You’ll come out on top, just make sure you don’t lose track of time.
Sagittarius ♐
(November 22 – December 21)
Jupiter’s making you feel bold, but with Mercury Retrograde in full swing, expect some slight detours. You’re all about the adventure, which is why you’ll find yourself trying out Heaven’s Gate or North Ridge Express without thinking twice. Uranus in Taurus gives you that extra push to experiment and try new things, but be mindful—Saturn’s influence keeps you focused, so make sure your gear’s ready for anything. The mountain’s calling, and you’re answering.
Capricorn ♑
(December 22 – January 19)
Capricorn, you’ve got your eye on mastering your skills this month. Pluto’s shift into Aquarius might make you re-evaluate your approach, and Mercury Retrograde might cause a minor setback (hello, spring weather). But with Saturn’s steadying influence, you’ll keep calm, carry on, and take on the Park with precision. Focus on technique, slow and steady—especially if you’re tackling something new on Reimergasse. You’ll feel accomplished once you stick that landing.
Aquarius ♒
(January 20 – February 18)
With Pluto in your sign, you’re all about innovation—expect to change your skiing style or try a new approach to familiar trails off of GMX. Maybe you’ll experiment with a new carving technique or take a wild line through Exterminator. The retrograde energy from Mercury will throw a few hiccups into your plans (perhaps a lift mix-up), but Saturn’s steady hand will help you regain focus. Don’t let a small disruption take you off course—you’re an Aquarius; you’re meant to stand out.
Pro Tip for March: With planetary influences in full swing, March is all about steady progress, fun surprises, and unexpected moments on the mountain. Stay adaptable—whether you’re cruising on a perfect run or dealing with a retrograde hiccup, embrace every cosmic twist. Keep your mind open and your skis (or board) ready for whatever the mountain has in store!
