Welcome back to our new monthly content planning series focused on inspiring your content creation for the month ahead!
In these posts/episodes, I will share what’s coming up in the month ahead—any holidays, astrological shifts, seasonal changes, the placement/movement of the moon, world or cultural events, etc. From these, I will highlight certain themes you can explore within your content as well as what to be mindful of when creating.
For each of these content planning episodes, a full list of content prompts centered around one main theme will be available as part of the Substack post. NEW opportunity: Share your creations for a possible feature/guest post on The Mindful Content Creator Substack! (More details below.)
Each episode will also end with a Tarot/Oracle card message for the month ahead to encourage us as creators.
You can view the details about this month, the theme, and the prompts below.
What’s happening in March?
Pisces Season - a good time to explore our emotions, spirituality, and dreams, and to be compassionate with ourselves as we reflect on all we’ve learned over this past astrological year
Women’s History Month and International Women’s Day (March 8) - a time to honor the accomplishments and contributions of women. Explore how you can honor this in your own unique way that doesn’t feel forced or obligatory.
New Moon in Pisces (March 10) - an opportunity to clear any stuck or stagnant energy and to release any old habits, mindsets, or false stories.
Spring Equinox (March 19) - themes of rebirth and renewal as we enter a new season.
Aries Season Begins (March 19) - the start of a new astrological year, so also a time indicating fresh starts and the opportunity to begin again in pursuit of our passions and dreams.
Full Moon Lunar Eclipse in Libra (Monday, March 25) - a time to explore balance in our closest relationships.
