The Weekly Horoscope

Everyday Life / Profession:

Jupiter now arrives in the sign of Leo. For you as an Aries (Fire element) this is a favorable constellation. With Jupiter in Leo, you can present yourself boldly and with self-confidence. You work wonderfully as a role model and as a motivator. Spreading good cheer is part of that. Unfortunately, this does not match well with the Cancer Sun in tension with Saturn (in Aries). It could mean that your upbeat mood is more staged than real. Perhaps you deliberately act positive even though there is reason for pessimism. If this is a conscious decision, you deserve respect, because you overcome your own doubts and insecurities. Jupiter is moving into opposition to Pluto, which challenges your optimism. Venus was already in that position and handled the encounter successfully. You need trust in your own strength but also in life itself. Life seems to prove to you again and again that you may trust it. With Jupiter in Leo, this will become even more noticeable. For now, though, there are doubts, and they are justified. Retrograde Mercury prompts people at this Full Moon to bring up personal concerns that they usually prefer to keep to themselves.

Relationship / Love:

With Jupiter and Venus in Leo you hold strong cards for your love life. You will not notice that right away, or you may doubt it. You have become very cautious and distrust a situation that seems peaceful. Keep in mind that distrust can also harm you. On the other hand, a few unpleasant facts are now being put on the table and they need to be processed.

Everyday Life / Profession:

Mars has entered the sign of Gemini. Mercury now turns retrograde. On Tuesday Jupiter moves into the sign of Leo. At the same time there is a Full Moon (Capricorn) that forms a tense aspect with Neptune and Saturn. Many things collide. You feel fresh momentum and optimism but also strong fears and worries. If events run too fast for you, hit the brakes. Bring up subjects that people do not expect and for which they are unprepared. You create a small shock wave and stop the action. Others first have to address your "interruption" and set something right. Because the issues are emotionally intense, the interruption may linger for a while. Then you have reached your goal: you slowed everything down. The opposite can happen as well. You may want to push something forward and suddenly face your own tough topics that you thought you had already closed. With retrograde Mercury in Cancer truths must come onto the table. If something has felt wrong, someone will say it and, if necessary, expose another person. The words come straight out of the (wounded) soul because the inner need is so strong.

Relationship / Love:

The Full Moon exposes a problem tied to unmet expectations. If you sense a lack, you now grow impatient fast and lose both your common sense and your sense of proportion. When that happens, you encounter situations you know from your childhood. Retrograde Mercury in Cancer digs deep and keeps going until it finds the primal wound.

Everyday Life / Profession:

Mars has entered the sign of Gemini and joins Uranus. This gives you two major restless spirits in your sign, both in good contact with Jupiter. Jupiter likes to take big leaps, and starting Tuesday it can do that better in Leo than in Cancer. This urge for action and movement contrasts with the Capricorn Full Moon and retrograde Mercury. It can feel like a strain. It may weigh on your mood and switch you to "out of order" from one moment to the next. A conscious strike is also possible if you have already reflected enough on grievances and want to make a statement. The planets form a cradle on wheels, and you give the cradle a push so that it starts to move... Hopefully, it will not turn into a roller-coaster ride! Retrograde Mercury and the Sun (both in sensitive Cancer) will soon have enough of it. Someone might stop the cart or simply step out. The Sun is the heart of the solar system and represents your consciousness. Your consciousness can declare the whole circus irrelevant and let it come to nothing.

Relationship / Love:

With Mars in Gemini, you are in control of the situation and can race off in one direction or the other. Are there too many options? It would not be the first time a Gemini personality feels overwhelmed by countless possibilities and then no longer knows what is right or wrong. Retrograde Mercury will help you recognize what is essential. The essential is invisible. It is already there and needs to be sensed. You do not have to run anywhere.

Everyday Life / Profession:

This week starts with a Capricorn Full Moon illuminated by the Cancer Sun. At the same time Mercury shifts into reverse, while Mars in Gemini hits the accelerator. You face intense contradictions again, and they feel overwhelming. As a Cancer, you have the Sun and Mercury, two main players in your sign, putting on the brakes, and you certainly do the same. You act more out of necessity than conviction. Because many issues still need clarification, it is wise not to push events forward blindly. Retrograde Mercury shows courage and offers valuable clues. Perhaps this is now your signature role. You feel that you carry responsibility and cannot accept everything. You champion something fundamental and vital that the planets in the Yang elements apparently overlook in their eagerness. You can abruptly slow that eagerness by revealing a few truths that others did not want to hear or even tried to suppress. Now those truths burst out because the time has come.

Relationship / Love:

Your "little upset" is more important than you thought last week, and it must be taken seriously. That means you need to reveal your feelings. Will you manage to do so this week? At least try, and let your partner understand that they cannot simply keep going as before. There is a limit, and you feel it more and more strongly as the week goes on.

Everyday Life / Profession:

This week starts in grand style with a Capricorn Full Moon, Mercury turning retrograde, Mars in Gemini and, on Tuesday, Jupiter’s arrival in the sign of Leo. As a Leo personality, you feel strongly energized by these constellations. Thanks to Jupiter and Venus, you might feel like the center of the action, even though the Cancer Sun is in fact the real center (of the Solar System). Yet the sign of Cancer simply does not stand out as much as the sign of Leo. At times, Jupiter even acts as a substitute for the Sun. This option looks tempting. However, it ignores the fact that the Sun has its own legitimacy and also works in the background. Do not overlook Mercury now either. In its retrograde phase, it shows great courage and brings up topics you may not want to hear. With Jupiter and Venus in Leo, vanity could create problems that you do not notice at first. The problems slip in through the back door when you think you have everything under control and perhaps already feel like a winner. Jupiter promises a lot. Give it time to keep its promises, and do not expect too much at once.

Relationship / Love:

With Jupiter, the sign of Leo gains a strong helper in everything that concerns you personally as well as your relationship life. Jupiter boosts your trust in life, and you then radiate this into the world, which makes you very attractive. That can overwhelm you a little this week because you still need to reorganize yourself first (Sun-Saturn).

Everyday Life / Profession:

Mars has entered the sign of Gemini and is moving even closer to Uranus. This alone already signals an acceleration of events and brings surprises. Jupiter now joins in, leaving sensitive, cautious Cancer and moving into powerful Leo, where it opposes Pluto. That makes everything feel much more dynamic and grand. The Sun, however, remains in Cancer for quite a while longer, and Mercury does too because its retrograde motion is starting now. The Sun and Mercury therefore counteract the fast pace and act as brakes (Sun in tension to Saturn). You can use Neptune in Aries in very different ways. Either you go with the flow and adapt to the rapid developments, or you throw a spanner in the works, not out of malice but because it is the last resort still available to you. If you are fatalistic, you will interpret external natural influences as signs of higher powers. Yet you may also ask these higher powers for something; Neptune invites you to do so. Neptune also invites you to connect with other people and, together, to unfold a subtle power that the "big players" must respect in their actions.

Relationship / Love:

Venus is losing the good connections. Interpersonal matters become bumpy. You may now prefer to hold back and wait first. That would be sensible. It is important to observe situations and consider what your next steps could be. But you know that already... a Virgo always has the next steps in mind. This time calls for heightened vigilance.

Everyday Life / Profession:

Right now you feel a strong urge for change, yet many things still arrive too early. You need time because your emotions cannot keep up. The emotional sphere is shown by the sign of Cancer, and Mercury is turning retrograde there while the Sun is in tension with Saturn. These configurations act like a brake, yet they can also push you toward unexpected means. You may then say something you experience as a deep truth and would normally keep inside. If you still say it, you do so in self-defense. It is the self-defense of Yin forces against an excess of Yang forces. The seemingly weak suddenly become strong and bare their teeth. They make use of Mars and Uranus in the Yang sign Gemini. The sign of Gemini has two sides, and with Uranus a change of sides can happen faster than you might think. Neptune is also involved, and you can never completely grasp or see through Neptune. Neptune in Aries strengthens your instincts and makes you follow them spontaneously.

Relationship / Love:

Neptune and Saturn in Aries always give you two very different options. Either you accept everything (yes) or you push back against what is offered to you (no). This week your decisions come straight from your gut and may be totally surprising. Anyone who thinks they have the partner under control will experience a rude awakening.

Everyday Life / Profession:

Scorpios tend to take radical actions. You can see and experience that this week. Mars is now very close to Uranus, which stands for rapid changes. Mars is also in good connection with Neptune and Pluto, and they favor abrupt changes. You can intervene in events by stepping hard on the gas or by braking sharply. Mars-Uranus can mean a stumble, an interruption, or a disturbance. Mercury is standing still and moving backward, and the Sun is in tension with Saturn; both point to disruptions and delays in the flow. There are good reasons for these disturbances, and you will discover them now and over the next three weeks. You need to learn or notice something you have not yet seen. Perhaps you already know what this is about. Then you are among those who now open other people’s eyes. You may also need to look more closely and feel more deeply yourself. If you have missed something, you need to catch up. Retrograde Mercury always offers you a chance to do so.

Relationship / Love:

The connection between Mars and Uranus becomes exact on Sunday. Until then, several contradictory things can happen, and you may even contribute to them yourself. The reason lies in feelings that are equally contradictory. You want to do everything right, yet you see how quickly you can do something wrong. Pitfalls lurk everywhere.

Everyday Life / Profession:

Mars has reached the Gemini sign and is now close to Uranus, opposite the Sagittarius sign. If you absorb these energies, you can achieve a lot and set surprising changes in motion. However, the surprise can also come from outside and leave you perplexed. The constellations do not reveal who will cause a change and who will have to accept it and adapt. When you look at Jupiter, which moves into the Leo sign (element Fire) on Tuesday, you see a hint of major opportunities for you. More than one door opens; they are more like huge gates. At the same time, Mercury (in Cancer) shifts into reverse and seems to disagree with everything. The Sun and Mercury in Cancer draw attention to a bond that you cannot simply cut and leave behind. The bond goes very deep. If you try to play down the connection (a personal relationship), you will land in difficult situations. Mercury and the Cancer Sun will not allow you to run away from an obligation (Saturn).

Relationship / Love:

Something or someone has you more firmly in their grip than you think. You will feel this during the week and be rather disoriented at the weekend. Perhaps you will then notice how important it is to feel at home and completely safe somewhere. That may also be the moment when you start to admit your true feelings and stop fooling yourself.

Everyday Life / Profession:

With Mars in Gemini and Jupiter in Leo, you gain fresh momentum. The Sun and Mercury can slow things down, yet they also draw attention to key points that you might overlook in the heat of the moment. You need these counterweights so you do not do anything "silly" right now. The Sun and Mercury in Cancer show that you must not disregard people and their basic needs when you aim for quick success. The link between Mars and Jupiter can make you overconfident. It can help you get going if you were hesitant before. It is important to have a clear goal in mind so that you do not get bogged down by the strong energies. You receive important impulses from your family circle. One of them may even be a prompt to pause. That happens if it does not originate from you and you let your usual environment carry you away too much. This week you might focus too much on your own benefit. Someone could notice and mention it. That would be embarrassing.

Relationship / Love:

Venus and Mars in "masculine" signs describe a desire for activity. Are there joint activities? If not, what can you do to become active together? Perhaps you only need to offer a good idea and thus motivate your partner. Maybe you have to go one step further and plan something concrete. Do not forget to have something to eat along the way, preferably in a comfortable setting.

Everyday Life / Profession:

Mars has entered lively Gemini, where Uranus is located, and Uranus makes everything even more restless. Jupiter moves into Leo on Tuesday. Mars and Jupiter form a favorable connection and reinforce each other. This creates an enormous urge to conquer. You probably feel a strong desire to change the world and leave your personal mark on it. On Wednesday/Thursday the Moon reaches Aquarius, where Pluto is positioned. This, too, shows how much your personal worldview matters right now. You look at everything through your own lens. Everyone else does the same, but you now feel a powerful urge to act. That can be overwhelming. You may ambush the people around you with your ideas and keep them from speaking. You might even say something unsettling so that others are left speechless. However, stationary and retrograde Mercury in Cancer can just as easily indicate that the others suddenly say something (in self-defense) that you may find irritating. The Sun in tension with Saturn in Aries also indicates that people fail to understand each other and are shocked by one another.

Relationship / Love:

Mars and Jupiter strongly favor contact and shared activities. You would like to have fun. In contrast, the Sun and Mercury need no bustle and prefer to stay in silence and security. In addition, Mars and Jupiter pull toward the future (plans, activities), while the Sun and Mercury look back and still have something to process.

Everyday Life / Profession:

The world is turning too fast in your eyes. The Cancer Sun squares Saturn, and retrograde Mercury is also in Cancer. Both give you two strong brakes that you press so nothing rash happens. You will probably make yourself unpopular. You gladly pay that price because you remain true to your stance. One could describe your position as conservative. Translated, that means "preserving." You want to keep the good. That does not mean you refuse new things, but you do not want to rush into them the way people do now. The only question is how friendly you can stay, especially when you notice that no one wants to hear your voice. Then you will find a way to draw attention to yourself. You will act like a barrier. Anyone who breaks through a barrier puts themselves in danger. People can hardly overlook the barrier. If they do, things get risky. The Moon signals recklessness when it reaches Pluto in Aquarius on Thursday, also connected with other planets in "dynamic" signs.

Relationship / Love:

Mars in Gemini and Venus in Leo show an enterprising spirit that does not fit your braking stance. Or does love work very differently for you than other areas of life? Look at your situation and stay cautious. Right now you cannot process too many exciting experiences. You are in a sensitive state and you need time.
