What’s happening: Today, Mercury is conjunct Pluto, the planet of power and control. This brings up very important conversations and potentially transformative experiences, likely related to circumstances you were facing around the end of December. On Saturday, Mercury enters Aquarius, and the Moon is in Scorpio. On Monday, the Moon moves into Sagittarius, and on Wednesday, Venus meets up with Neptune. Finally, the Sun bumps into Saturn on Thursday.
What that means for you:
Aries
The biggest lesson you’re learning this week is that it’s time to move on! You’re thinking a lot about your ex right now—you can’t keep them off your mind, or maybe they’re actually coming back around. The point here is not to get back together with them. Instead, you’re being asked to find closure, focus on the positive lessons you can draw from the old relationship, and then move on. That way, you’ll be 100% ready for your next relationship.
Taurus
Don’t count on getting too much action tonight, Taurus. It doesn’t look like much is going on until the Moon enters Scorpio on Saturday, which activates your chart’s relationships zone for the rest of the weekend. That means that it’s a great time to go on a date, ask somebody out, or even DTR if you’re ready! Wednesday’s astro is über romantic, so if you’re looking for love (especially if you’re crushing on someone in your squad), that’s your best day to shoot your shot.

Gemini
This weekend starts slow, but once Mercury enters Aquarius on Saturday, you start to pick up the pace. This transit makes you feel more confident, extroverted, and ready for action, and combined with the Moon in your chart’s relationships zone on Monday, this is perfect astro-weather if you’re looking for love! If you’ve been going steady with someone for a while, take them somewhere special on Wednesday to DTR.
Cancer
There’s been a point of contention in your love life since the end of December—a big fight, a tough conversation, a hidden secret—and this weekend, you’re finally dealing with it. If you don’t end up breaking up (which is a very real possibility right now), your relationship will be stronger than ever after finally getting through this hurdle. Wednesday’s the best day of the week for your love life, so if you need some makeup sex (or a rebound) that’s your chance.
Leo
Mercury joins the Sun in your chart’s relationships zone this weekend, meaning that now’s one of the best times of year to find a new S.O. or upgrade your current relationship. The Sagittarius Moon at the beginning of the week lights up your chart’s zone of romance, sex, and fun, so it’s safe to say that you’re defs getting some action this week, too. But here’s the thing—the Sun bumps into the planet of restriction, Saturn, on Thursday. This is a major astrological red flag for rejection, so definitely don’t try to shoot your shot that day.
Virgo
You’ve been holding in your feelings for so long, and now’s your chance to let them out—tell them how you feel! Maybe you’ve been crushing on someone, or steadily dating someone, or maybe you’re already partnered up with someone—regardless, now’s the time to pop the question, start The Talk, and give your love life the glow up it deserves and needs!
Libra
Don’t expect much action this weekend, Libra. It looks like not much is going on until the Moon enters Sagittarius on Monday. This activates your chart’s communication zone, so the beginning of the week is perfect for asking someone out or scheduling a date. One thing—Saturn is the planet of blockage, and it’s being activated on Thursday. In your chart, this translates to major potential for rejection, so make sure you’re not spending time with your special someone towards the end of the week.
Scorpio
You have the potential to make some major magic happen in your love life this week, Scorpio, but here’s the catch—you need to be the one to initiate. Ask out your crush, or have the DTR talk with your situationship. I know you’d rather wait for them to make the first move, but listen! Your words carry immense power this weekend, so there should be absolutely zero trouble finding the perfect words to say and starting constructive, transformative conversations.
Sagittarius
You and your partner have been at odds over something. This issue has been going on for a while now—a disagreement, a fight, something like that—and you’re beginning to feel exhausted. Here’s the thing, Sagittarius. It’s probably not that big of a deal, and it looks like you and your boo are still beefing because you both feel like you just have to be right. Talk it out before the end of the week.
Capricorn
This weekend, Pluto, the planet of power, is being activated in your sign, Capricorn, and it’s giving you a strong, magnetic, and intriguing aura. People are just naturally drawn to you now, and once the Moon enters sexy Scorpio on Saturday, you’ll be more charming than ever. The rest of the week is just as exciting, and Wednesday’s astro brings a high potential for romance, helping you to make major moves in your love life.
Aquarius
You know that ex that’s been bugging you since the end of last year? Well, the drama is finally ending after this weekend! Mercury enters your sign on Saturday, and the Sagittarius Moon during the first half of this week both make you feel more excited, extroverted, and ready for action. This means that this is a totally stellar week for all you single Aquarians out there! One thing—Thursday’s astro is not great, so try to avoid making any moves in your love life at the end of the week.
Pisces
This isn’t the busiest week for your love life by any means, unfortunately. You’re not getting much action, and you’re feeling pretty lonely right now—especially if you’re single. That being said, there’s a golden opportunity to have some fun with someone sexy on Wednesday, when Venus and Neptune connect in your sign. This gives you a mysterious, intriguing vibe that is totally irresistible to others, so finding your next date/hookup should be a breeze!
