What’s happening: The Moon is in moody Cancer tonight while Venus forms an octile — a minor aspect — to Neptune. You’re feeling more emotional this weekend, and Venus and Neptune are pushing you to think of the could bes in your love life.
The Moon enters fiery Leo on Monday. At the same time, the Sun forms a conjunction with Uranus, the planet of surprises, and Venus forms a stable sextile with Saturn, the planet of structure. Then, the Moon enters Virgo on Wednesday. Mercury zips into Taurus on the same day, giving you a more practical state of mind.
What that means for your star sign
Stop comparing your current relationship to your past loves. Your partner could be annoying you just a little bit, and it’s making your mind go back in time. You’re thinking, ‘Well, when I was with my ex, this never happened,’ or ‘Well, my ex NEVER did something like that.’ This might tempt you to dip out of the relationship or even hit up your ex. But wait! You’re more prone to idealising the past right now because you’re frustrated with the present. Try to talk things out, think outside of the box, and find a solution.
You’re holding a lot in your heart, and this astro urging you to let it all out! If you like someone, you’re being encouraged to tell them. If you love someone, this is an amazing time to open up. Or maybe the abundance of feelings you’re holding back aren’t exactly positive — that’s okay, because this is also a good time to initiate a breakup. This week is all about identifying how you’re feeling and what you want, then getting all of your ducks in a row before going for it. You’re the initiator in all of this, however. If you don’t act, nothing will happen.
Watch out for a blast from the past. The stars aren’t giving indications of any major changes in your love life this week, but your attention is turning to people, relationships, and situationships from back in the day. You might even end up bumping into an ex flame or two! This isn’t happening simply to remind you of past failed relationships, though. This is an opportunity to do one of two things: Reconnect or find closure. Then you can proceed forward with your love life again.
The Moon in your sign this weekend helps you let down your walls and make room for a little more ~romance~ in your life. Plus, the octile between Venus and Neptune is very gently nudging you to leave your comfort zone, both in and out of the bedroom. That can mean finding the courage to hit up your crush instead of waiting for them to connect with you, or it could mean deciding to do that really exciting, kinky thing in bed you’ve been dying to try with your boo. If you’re single and ready to mingle, some new connections are coming in soon, thanks to Mercury in Taurus activating the most social part of your chart!
Brace yourself, Leo, because there’s a little bit of drama ahead. First, this weekend’s Cancer Moon has you deep in your feelings, and the irritating octile between Venus and Neptune is giving you a more cynical, negative attitude when it comes to love. You might be pissed that your relationship isn’t where you want it to be. Or you might get caught comparing your current partner’s negative traits to an ex’s positive traits. Or you could start feeling bitter or jaded about love, especially if you’ve been single for a while. Try to find the bright side, and if there truly isn’t one, then at least wait ‘til this dramatic astro finishes up at the end of the week before starting any major conversations — if you start them now, they’re likely to turn into a fight.
There’s a pleasant blend of astrology this weekend that can help you make a bit of magic happen in your love life. First, the Cancer Moon falls in a favourable position in your chart. This helps you come out of your shell and feel less shy about connecting with new people. Then, the astrology between Venus, Neptune, and Saturn is making you feel more eager for newness in your love life. You’re more comfortable approaching your crush, it feels easier to start important conversations with your partner, and trying new things in bed is especially thrilling. The Leo Moon at the beginning of the week puts you in a not-so-great mood, but once the Moon enters your sign on Wednesday, you get that pep in your step back.
You’ve been taking a more serious approach to love lately, and that’s even more true this week. Hookups can still happen (especially when the Moon enters social, charismatic Leo on Monday and Tuesday), but they’re way less satisfying. What you really want right now is something deep, meaningful, and real. Mercury moves from your chart’s relationships zone into your chart’s intimacy zone at the end of the week, reinforcing this mindset again. The whole point of this week is to encourage you to focus on creating a sustainable, secure, and powerful relationship.
Hey, Scorpio. You’ve been working hard and getting shit done, but I think it’s time for you to have a little fun — you deserve it! The hottest part of your chart is getting lit up all week, as is your chart’s relationships zone. This means that there are lots of good vibes coming to your love life. You’re feeling ready to get in the driver’s seat, so to speak, and shooting your shot and/or starting the “What are we?” talk feels much easier. Better yet, Mercury enters your chart’s relationships zone at the end of the week. You can look forward to plenty of new potential lovers if you’re single, or if you’re already coupled up, you’ll be connecting with your partner on a more intellectual, mental level.
Your love life may feel like a bit of a chore right now. Checking your dating apps feels less like ‘Ooh, I wonder who I matched with,’ and feels more like ‘Okay, let’s scroll through these losers who’ll never hit me up.’ You might feel as if your partner is acting demanding, or that your schedule is becoming way too busy for a relationship. My advice? Do your best to look on the bright side. Sure, you’re not getting as many matches, but at least you’re still getting the opportunity to connect with some new people. Sure, your partner needs more attention right now — but don’t they give you extra support when you need it? Love isn’t always sunshine and rainbows, and whether it’s a friends with benefits or the love of your life, relationships require work.
The Cancer Moon this weekend activates your chart’s relationships zone. Whether you’re looking for love, hunting for a hookup, or just spending time with your partner, you’re in luck! Connecting with others — whether familiar or new faces — is much easier, but you’re holding yourself back. You’re not being completely authentic. You’re afraid you might stumble over your words, so you don’t ask someone out. You’re anxious that you don’t look good enough, so you don’t say hi to that cutie at the bar. Push past the doubt. There’s no reason to hold yourself back right now. Be yourself, and make some magic happen!
Is it really worth it? Your relationship, that is. Whether it’s a hookup, a new partner, or a long-time lover, you’re being asked to review the state of your love life. How much time and energy are you spending? Is this really good for you? Be realistic. You might come to some unfortunate conclusions, but look at it this way: At least now you’ve acknowledged the problem, and then you can start working to fix it. You have a bunch of metaphorical loose floorboards, holes in the walls, and leaky pipes you need to fix in your relationship, and all of this Taurus astro-weather is pushing you to get to work.
The Moon is in the sexiest, most romantic, most exciting zone of your chart this weekend, which means the stars are totally on your side when it comes to your love life. The problem is that you’re having a tough time being genuine. When it comes to relationships — casual or serious — you gotta show up with your full, genuine self. People can tell when you’re faking it, so stop worrying about how you “should” act and what you “should” say. Just do and say what you want. You’re a real catch, Pisces (fish joke, get it?), and others know it!
