ARIES
This is one of the most important weeks of the year, let alone the month for love, with Wednesday the epicentre, bringing your romantic and relationship situations to a turning point. It begins with Saturn's retrograde turn in your relationship sector followed by Venus, planet of love's return to your sign, under the light of a Full Moon in your romantic sector. As Saturn opens the door to the past on the relationship front Venus opens the door to the future on the romantic front, with agendas that over the coming weeks will come into conflict. Yet it's a Full Moon in your romantic sector that gives you an intuitive read on your heart and a reminder that at the end of the day love really can conquer all. This gives you a chance to balance your romantic and relationship needs and situation.
TAURUS
Venus, planet of love is on the move this week, with her retrograde to a nostalgic and reflective part of your chart on Wednesday increasing the already significant sense of romantic nostalgia in the air. With Mars, planet of passion already in retrograde in your romantic sector and remaining in retrograde motion until mid April, a sense of romantic nostalgia was already strong before Venus arrived. As Mars works to recapture old romantic passions Venus is giving you a chance to take a trip down love's memory lane, but while they're working together for now, it won't be for long. While Mars will remain in retrograde motion in your romantic sector until mid April, keeping the door open to second chances Venus will return to your sign early next month, ready to open new doors.
GEMINI
Saturn and Venus are the two planets controlling things on the romantic front and they both experience a real shift this week, changing the dynamics on the romantic front, both on the same day, Wednesday. In the early days of the week Venus, planet of love is in her final days in a more competitive part of your chart and Saturn is in his final days in direct motion in your romantic sector, both focused on the future. This gives you a chance to define your romantic goals and intentions, but in a way that may be more akin to window shopping, giving you something to aim for that at this stage is out of reach. On Wednesday, Saturn turns retrograde, opening the door to the past, while Venus moves into a more social and serendipitous part of your chart, encouraging you to stay in the moment.
CANCER
It was late last month that Mercury left your relationship sector and with Pluto back on his own it is now more about keeping the momentum going. As Mercury was the last planet to leave before things switched to a more long term mode it's communication that needs to lead the way. With some major romantic developments in the second half of the year Venus, planet of love is urging you to both keep your options open and start setting goals for the future, though not at the same time. Venus will spend the early days of the week in an adventurous part of your chart, where she's bringing a desire to move out of a romantic rut and to see love as a journey. It's her return to a more competitive part of your chart that gives you a chance to start developing new romantic goals for the future.
LEO
When Neptune, planet of dreams and fantasies left your relationship sector over the weekend, never to return in your lifetime, this brought you to the end of an era, though you still have the Sun and Mercury tying up loose ends. Monday will see the Sun and Mercury regroup, beginning a 3 day alignment that will put the Sun's authenticity and Mercury's ability to open the communication lines on the same page, with Mercury taking the lead from Wednesday. But with both leaving your relationship sector next week, with no more planetary activity here then until the very final days of the year, you will soon be on your own. Yet it's Venus, planet of love's return to a more adventurous part of your chart on Wednesday that will give you the confidence to view the future as a journey.
VIRGO
Neptune, planet of dreams and fantasies' return to your relationship sector over the weekend and his first full week is all about settling into what is the start of a 14 year journey. Neptune won't leave your relationship sector until 2026 and during that time many planets will come and go, most annually, but it's the planet here from the start that will have the biggest influence. Neptune has returned just days before Venus, planet of love is due to leave your relationship sector on Wednesday, giving you a chance to put your relationship desires and fantasies on the same page. Even after Venus leaves your relationship sector on Wednesday hold onto this and while it's important to keep your relationships real, that can wait until the Sun and Mercury return next week.
LIBRA
There is an overlapping of forces on the romantic and relationship fronts this week, making it clear that the love gods aren't going to let anything fall through the cracks. It is Venus, planet of love's return to your relationship sector on Wednesday that will kick off her own 26 day visit and 3 of the best relationship months of the year. But while Neptune, planet of dreams and fantasy left your romantic sector over the weekend, the Sun and Mercury won't leave until next week, creating a situation where you're still putting the finishing touches on your romantic expectations, still giving your heart a voice and putting heart and mind on the same page as new doors open on the relationship front. This allows a more seamless transition from one to the other.
SCORPIO
When Venus returns to your relationship sector early next month and teams up with Jupiter it's your relationships that will come to the fore. In the meantime this gives you a chance to establish things on the romantic front first, though there should be some healthy relationship building taking place in the background. It was Neptune, planet of dreams and fantasies' return to your romantic sector over the weekend and his first full week here that brings you to the start of a brand new chapter, one that will take another 14 years to play out. Yet what are Neptune's early days in your romantic sector are also Venus, planet of love's final days and due to leave on Wednesday the early days of the week are all about embracing your romantic desires and believing in the fairytale.
SAGITTARIUS
While Uranus has been in direct motion in your romantic sector since December and you even moved into 2012 with the year here as well, this has been more a promise that anything was possible than anything tangible. That all changes on Wednesday when Venus, planet of love returns to your romantic sector, kicking off her own romantically charged 26 day visit but also an active 3 months on the romantic front. Venus is a planet that rules through the laws of attraction and Uranus is a planet that rules through the laws of synchronicity and when they get together these fuse to create the potential for some serendipitous times on the romantic front. It's when Venus and Uranus align, on Friday and Saturday that there will be a real sense of serendipity in the air.
CAPRICORN
You begin the week with the Moon already in your relationship sector, having arrived over the weekend and having coming full circle from last month's Full Moon. The Moon will visit your relationship sector 13 times in 2012 and the first and the last visits will be Full Moons, giving you plenty of times during the course of the year to get your bearings and stay on track. Before the Moon leaves on Tuesday this gives you a chance to listen to your instincts and emotional responses, for they're providing the clues that reveal the most authentic path. While the Moon is in your relationship sector Venus, planet of love is in her final days in your communication sector, with the more things the Moon can stir the more Venus is able to use this to open the communication lines.
AQUARIUS
Whether by coincidence or design, the timing of both Venus' return to your communication sector and a Full Moon in your relationship sector is spot on, for they'll happen at the same time. If Wednesday's Full Moon in your relationship sector is doing its job, this will push some buttons, bring things to a head and as the only opportunity in the first half of the year to do so, will be taking the gloves off. This makes Venus, planet of love's return to your communication sector on the same day a case of perfect timing, for she's able to take everything that the Full Moon brings to a head and give it a voice and falling just as she arrives this will set the standard for the rest of her 26 day visit. In order to have an authentic relationship you first need to get real.
PISCES
When Mars and Venus moved into opposition last week this is likely to have created some personal, romantic and/or relationship tension. While they're no longer in opposition, until Venus leaves your sign on Wednesday she'll be putting enough pressure on Mars and your relationship sector to ensure that you're not asleep at the wheel. What has helped is the Moon's return to your romantic sector over the weekend, with his position there until Tuesday giving you the tools to make Venus' final days in your sign count. This is the Moon's only visit to your romantic sector during your Venus return and with Mars in your relationship sector until July your relationships can wait. The early days of the week are all about buying into a sense of romance and boosting your romantic expectations. |
