Aries(Mar21-Apr19)
Things not only get off to a romantically charged start but will stay that way for the whole month. While the Sun's return to your romantic sector on 23rd July is a given, always turning the solar spotlight onto matters of the heart and all things romantic at this time of year, this year the love gods aren't waiting. In 2020 Venus, the planet of love didn't return to your romantic sector until September and Mars didn't return at all, yet you start the month with both here. Venus only returned towards the end of July so is still in her early days when you move into the new month, catching up with Mars midmonth. While Venus is only in your romantic sector for 24 days, these can be the most romantically charged weeks of any year and that is without Mars' influence. Venus is here until 22nd July and Mars until 30th July, with the planets of love and passion coming together to make these not only some of the most romantically charged weeks of the year but in several years. Together, Venus and Mars have the ability to kick start your love life. Things could really become heated when the Moon moves through from 11th July to 13th July, with romantically charged lunar vibes in play just as Venus and Mars are aligned. The Sun's return on 23rd July means the solar spotlight will shift onto matters of the heart a day after Venus leaves and on the same day that Mars moves into his final week. The point when things are usually just getting started will instead be the point where there is already maximum romantic influence. Meanwhile, while there is no planetary activity on the relationship front you still have Mercury, the planet of communication in your communication sector until 12th July. Your relationships will do well if the communication lines are open while the Moon's return to your relationship sector from 16th July to 18th July will be a chance to check in.
Taurus(Apr20-May20)
Moving into July there is no planetary activity on the romantic or relationship fronts, as you would expect at this time of year but by the end of the month that will have changed. Or at least that will be the case on the romantic front, with your relationships benefiting from planetary activity on the communication front from the start. Venus, the planet of love only left your communication sector at the end of last month, with her mission to give your heart and your relationships a voice continuing to benefit your relationships. The Sun, in your communication sector until 23rd July and Mercury, the planet of communication from 12th July to 28th July will continue that legacy. When the Moon makes its monthly visit to your relationship sector from 18th July to 20th July the Sun and Mercury will both still be in your communication sector. As well as a chance to become more emotionally engaged this will be a chance to ensure the communication lines are open. While the Moon will return to your relationship sector every four weeks, this will be the last time this year that there is planetary activity in your communication sector at the time. Meanwhile, the Moon's return to your romantic sector from 13th July to 16th July should be and is an ordinary monthly visit. Chances are these romantically charged lunar vibes will bring a sense of anticipation that is anything but ordinary, especially as the Sun won't return to your romantic sector until later next month. However, what your heart's over the horizon radar will be picking up on is the approach of Venus and Mars, with the planet of love returning to your romantic sector on 22nd July and the planet of passion and the warrior planet of the cosmos just eight days later on 30th July. This will mark the start of the most romantically charged months of 2021.
Gemini(May21-Jun20)
While things are a lot quieter on the relationship front this month, after both not just an eclipsing New and Full Moon but a series of planetary clashes put a balance between your personal and relationship needs to the test you now get to enjoy the benefits. Armed with a better sense of what you want from your relationships and what they need from you, there is a chance for either the rebuilding or strengthening of existing relationships or an empowered fresh start. This month the focus is more on communication and here the support is phenomenal. Over two months after first returning to Gemini for what should have been a 14 to 15 day visit Mercury, the planet of communication is not only still here but won't leave until 12th July. With Venus, the planet of love in your communication sector until 22nd July, Mars until 30th July, the Sun here from 23rd July and Mercury, the planet of communication from 28th July there is wall to wall support from the communication gods. That Mercury, the planet of communication starts the month in Gemini and ends the month in your communication sector and Venus will spend the first three weeks of the month giving your heart and your relationships a voice is an extraordinary advantage. This is something that the Moon will take advantage of when it moves through your relationship sector from 20th July to 22nd July, putting it here during Venus' final days in your communication sector and of her mission to give your heart and your relationships a voice. Meanwhile, with no planetary activity in your romantic sector, the Moon's return from 16th July to 18th July is something that needs to be embraced. These could be the most romantically charged days of the month but are also a taste of things to come with Venus, the planet of love set to return to your romantic sector next month.
Cancer(Jun21-Jul22)
A Full Moon in your relationship sector late last month allows you to begin the month with a better sense of what you want from your relationships and what they need from you. However, while this is an annual clash between the Sun and Moon, a balance between your personal and relationship needs has been in the spotlight since Mars first returned to Cancer in April. Whenever there is planetary activity in Cancer this will put them in opposition with Pluto, in retrograde motion in your relationship sector. As there is always planetary activity in Cancer at this time of year, this is when balance issues between your personal and relationship needs become more apparent. The difference with the Full Moon late last month was the emotional component but also that it fell during Venus, the planet of love's last full day in Cancer. Venus was able to use this to get to the heart of what you want from your relationships and what they need from you and that is the advantage that you start the month with. Held back by a retrograde phase Mercury, the planet of communication won't return to Cancer until 12th July but while he is only here until 28th July, with Venus returning to your communication sector on 22nd July and Mars on 30th July, they can continue what he starts. Meanwhile, with no planetary activity on the romantic front, the Moon's return from 18th July to 20th July is something that needs to be embraced. As the Moon's first visit since Venus left Cancer late last month, these could be the most romantically charged days of the month. The Moon will come full circle from last month's Full Moon in your relationship sector from 22nd July to 24th July but while the Sun doesn't leave Cancer until 23rd July he will be gone before they can clash. Mercury will still be in Cancer, with the planet of communication on hand to give your emotional responses and relationships a voice.
Leo(Jul23-Aug22)
While Venus, the planet of love will leave Leo on 22nd July, a day before the Sun returns it means that you will begin your birthday month and new solar year with your romantic and relationship expectations for the coming year already banked. This couldn't be more important, for the year ahead has some extraordinary opportunities on both fronts. Venus returned late last month to find that there was already a lot of energy on the romantic front and that thanks to Mars, a mix of nostalgia, romance, passion and adventure, something that will only strengthen this month This will be especially potent when the Moon moves through your romantic sector from 20th July to 22nd July, something that is set to make Venus' final days in Leo the most romantically charged. With Venus in the final days of a mission to update your romantic expectations for a new solar year that doesn't even begin until the day after she leaves, this will create some high expectations from the start. Venus also returned to find a strong focus on your relationships, with Saturn in retrograde motion and on his own in your relationship sector since Jupiter left in May. This has put the focus on relationship housekeeping and while this can give the impression that your relationships might be hard work, with Jupiter due to retrograde back in on 29th July it is hard work for a purpose. The planet of luck and expansion is returning for a double dip visit, opening the doors to the past and second chances and especially when it comes to taking advantage of the hard work Saturn has asked you to invest in. It is just before Jupiter's return that the Moon will not only return to your relationship sector from 24th July to 26th July but to create a Full Moon here on 24th July. This will put a balance between your personal and relationship needs to the test but is also a chance to get to the heart of what you want from your relationships and what they need from you just days before Jupiter's return.
Virgo(Aug23-Sep22)
There is a lot of nostalgia in the air this month and that includes on both the romantic and relationship fronts. Just having Venus, the planet of love in a nostalgic part of your chart until 22nd July is putting a lot of focus on the past as she takes your heart on a nostalgic trip down love's memory lane. However, you also have Pluto in retrograde motion in your romantic sector all month and as you move into the new month Jupiter and Neptune are still in their early days in retrograde motion in your romantic sector. Venus is taking your heart on a nostalgic trip down love's memory lane while the doors are open to the past and second chances. For Neptune and Pluto, these are annual events. In your romantic sector from 2008 to 2024, Pluto will spend from April to September of every year in retrograde motion while Neptune, in your relationship sector from 2012 to 2026 will spend from June to November of each year in retrograde motion. These are slow outer planets that are here for years, with these annual retrograde phases a chance to pull back and retrace your steps. The difference is Jupiter, who having just returned to your relationship sector in May will retrograde back out again on 29th July. In all, Jupiter will spend just two and a half months in your relationship sector but will return in December, making this more a chance to get a sense of what's possible. While Jupiter returns every 12 years and Neptune has been in your relationship sector since 2012, this is the first time that the planets of luck and dreams have been together here in our lifetime. Venus' nostalgic trip down love's memory lane will end when she returns to Virgo on 22nd July but with planets on the romantic and relationship fronts remaining in retrograde motion, the doors will remain open to the past.
Libra(Sep23-oct22)
While it is business as usual on the romantic front to begin with, there are some major and even game changing developments in the latter part of the month. The month begins with Saturn still in retrograde motion and on his own in your romantic sector, as he has been since May. While Saturn is the hard taskmaster of the cosmos but his influence is a lot more tempered here he is also driven by a sense of purpose, especially when it comes to housekeeping or work that you can benefit from later. In retrograde motion, the focus is on either learning from or putting in the work that can heal or resolve the past. Saturn is a hardworking planet and his purpose is not to simply hold the doors open to the past and second chances but to go back and put in the work. However, one planet that is focused on second chances, missed opportunities and do overs is Jupiter and due to retrograde back in for a double dip visit on 29th July, this makes the work that Saturn can put in first a lot more important, significant and timely. However, even before Jupiter returns something is definitely stirring on the romantic front. The Moon left your romantic sector late last month, giving you a read on both what your heart is telling you and of Saturn's mandate. It is when the Moon returns from 24th July to 26th July that the real magic will happen, thanks to the Full Moon this will create on 24th July. This is the most romantically charged Full Moon of any year and falls just five days before Jupiter's return on 29th July. Just having Saturn here for this annual event is rare and last happened three decades ago. With Jupiter, the planet of luck and expansion just days away this will not only fuel a sense of anticipation but will make Saturn even more determined to see you put in the hard work to prepare.
Scorpio(oct23-Nov21)
There is something special developing on the romantic front this month or more accurately, something special continues to develop. It began with Jupiter's unexpected returned to your romantic sector in May. The planet of luck and expansion is not only early to return but so early that a retrograde turn last month will see him retrograde back out on 29th July, just two and a half months after returning for what is normally a 12 month visit. Jupiter will return in December, which was initially when he was expected to return. This makes this more an exploratory visit, with a chance to plant seeds and get the wheels turning. This is giving Jupiter a chance to spend time with dreamy Neptune, who turned retrograde late last month as well but won't retrograde back out. Neptune will stay on when Jupiter leaves and will also be here when he returns, keeping the romantic dream alive while holding the doors open to the past. With the planets of luck and dreams both in retrograde motion, there is a strong sense of romantic nostalgia in the air that will continue even after Jupiter retrogrades back out. Throughout Jupiter's remaining weeks he will have the support of the Sun in an adventurous part of your chart, continuing on from the same support Venus and Mars provided over recent months. The Moon will begin the month in your romantic sector but will leave on 1st July, getting the month off to a romantically charged start. This is the Moon's first visit since Jupiter and Neptune's retrograde turn so the first this year with a sense of romantic nostalgia. The Moon will return from 26th July to 28th July, with romantically charged lunar vibes in play during Jupiter's final days. The Moon will leave a day before Jupiter leaves on 29th July. Meanwhile, things are a lot more settled on the relationship front this month, with the dwarf planet Ceres continuing to define your relationship needs and priorities before leaving your relationship sector on 31st July.
Sagittarius(Nov22-Des21)
While the Sun left your relationship sector last month, taking the solar spotlight off your relationships and Venus and Mars have been and gone, once again Mercury is still here. Mercury, the planet of communication returned in April for what should have been a 14 day to 15 day visit but instead, a retrograde turn has kept him here. Back in direct motion but not leaving until 12th July, Mercury is still working to get the communication lines open. With Saturn in retrograde motion in your communication sector and Jupiter retrograding back in on 29th July, keeping the communication lines open won't be a problem. Nor will keeping your relationships on an authentic path and moving forward, even though Mercury's departure will end all planetary activity on the relationship front. With the North Node staying on in your relationship sector and its partner the South Node staying on in Sagittarius, they will continue to maintain a balance between your personal and relationship needs. A lot of that has already been established, with the focus now more on communication and that includes Mercury's focus on moving things forward and Saturn's focus on giving the past and unsaid words a voice. Meanwhile, while just having Venus in an adventurous part of your chart until 22nd July was going to bring the spirit of romance and adventure together this month there are other factors in play. With Mars also in an adventurous part of your chart until 30th July and both moving into a friendly aspect to the planets in your romantic sector as they move through, there will be a strong mix of romance, passion and adventure all month. Thanks to the Moon this will be especially strong in the first and the final days of the month.
Capricorn(Dec22-Jan19)
Because the Sun will always spend the first three weeks of July in your relationship sector, the focus is always on your relationships at this time of year. The fact that Venus and Mars, the planets of love and passion have already moved through gives you a massive head start. Venus only left at the end of June, so was here when the Sun returned and not only put the solar spotlight on your relationships but on her desires and expectations. While Mars left earlier last month it was not before having spent seven weeks working to not only get a sense of what you are fighting for but to begin the battle. By the time you move into the new month you already have a good sense of what you want from your relationships and what they need from you. The Moon's return to your relationship sector from 9th July to 11th July will be a defining point in the month, for as well as a chance to become more emotionally engaged it will align with the Sun to create a New Moon here on 10th July. A New Moon is an opportunity for new beginnings or a fresh start but in this case, because Venus and Mars have already moved through, the Sun will leave on 23rd July and as all planetary activity on the relationship front will have ended by the end of the month, this is a chance to begin wrapping things up. The only planet yet to return by the time the Moon leaves is Mercury. Held back by a retrograde phase the planet of communication will finally return to your relationship sector on 12th July but will leave on 28th July, giving you just 16 days to work with him to get the communication lines open. As the last planet to leave, the last step is having the communication lines open. Meanwhile, while it is business as usual on the romantic front, with Uranus in your romantic sector until 2026, the dwarf planet Ceres will wrap up her mission to update your heart's needs and priorities on 31st July.
Aquarius(Jan20-Feb18)
On both the romantic and relationship fronts you are benefiting from either planets returning early or staying on later than would normally be the case. On the relationship front, you are benefiting from the fact that Venus, who last year didn't return to your relationship sector until September is already here while Mars, who didn't visit at all in 2020 is here as well. Venus only returned at the end of last month and as she is here until 22nd July, Mars until 30th July and the Sun will return on 23rd July, this will make this one of the most defining months of the year on the relationship front. Before the Sun turns the solar spotlight on your relationships you will have a good sense of what you want from your relationships and what they need from you. While this is partly because of the voice that Venus will give your heart, continuing to update your relationship expectations until she leaves, just a day before the Sun's return, this is also thanks to having Saturn in Aquarius. While every planet moving through your relationship sector this year will clash with Saturn, this is not only making any balance issues between your personal and relationship needs more obvious but is raising the bar on both fronts. The last planet to return to your relationship sector this year is Mercury, with the planet of communication not returning until 28th July. However, when he returns he will work to ensure you end the month with the communication lines open. Mercury is late returning because a retrograde phase last month has kept him in your romantic sector. By the time the Sun left your romantic sector last month, Venus and Mars had already been and gone, with Mercury staying on. Mercury will continue to give your heart a voice and to keep the spirit of romance alive until he leaves on 12th July.
Pisces(Feb19-Mar20)
With the Sun always spending the first three weeks of July in your romantic sector, the solar spotlight is always on matters of the heart and all things romantic at this time of year. However, the difference this year is the massive head start that you already have due to the fact that Venus and Mars, the planets of love and passion have already moved through. Venus, who didn't return to your romantic sector until August last year left late last month, after the Sun had returned to take over from where she left off. Mars, who didn't visit your romantic sector at all in 2020 left earlier last month. Between them, the planets of love and passion have fired things up, leaving the spirit of romance in the safe hands of the Sun, who will keep the solar spotlight on matters of the heart until leaving on 23rd July. That won't be the end of all planetary activity on the romantic front or at least not just yet. Held back by a retrograde phase last month, Mercury is late returning to your romantic sector this year but will move through from 12th July to 28th July. Mercury will return to give your heart a voice and to put heart and mind on the same page just after the Moon moves through, from 9th July to 11th July. As well as giving the spirit of romance a boost, these romantically charged lunar vibes will align with the Sun to create a New Moon on 10th July. Meanwhile, while the Sun won't return to your relationship sector until later next month, your relationships get an early boost when Venus returns on 22nd July, followed by Mars eight days later on 30th July. This will bring the planets of love and passion together in a way that will not only energise your relationships but draw in support from planets on the communication front from the start.
