Mercury's in retrograde and Venus shacks up opposite Pluto

After last week’s lunar eclipse and before next week’s solar eclipse, this week we get a short break from big revelations, endings or beginnings. But don’t worry, the coming days still have something in store for us all. On Tuesday, Pluto will be stationed in Capricorn opposite Venus in Cancer. Venus is the planet of love, while Pluto represents renewal and transformations. This means we might be feeling some extremes when it comes to romantic feelings. But this could also be good, because it could bring our own tendencies to obsess to light. We might be more aware of how we take things to extremes and in turn be able to handle our anxieties better.

After that, on Wednesday, Venus moves on to square with Jupiter in Libra. Jupiter is all about abundance. Since Libra can also be a bit of a spender, be careful with money and try not to over do it this week.

Remember that Mercury went into retrograde last week and we have another eclipse coming up soon. So, this week might also include some introspection and preparation for upcoming events!

Aries
What unresolved childhood issues are coming back to haunt you? Reflect on old wounds and heal. This week wants you to pause your romantic endeavors. Build up some suspense. Don’t rush or get too caught up in something to the point where you are ignoring the problems. Notice the issues for what they really are and talk them out.

Taurus
Have the conversations you need to have to get ready for next week’s eclipse. Remember that next week will be about beginning something new. What do you need to get out of the way? Where have you been stuck? Is there something that you’ve been repeating over and over in your head? Turn off the loop. What are you really worried about? Will obsessing even help? Sometimes details can be important, yes, but the key here is being able to find the balance between healthy analyzing and unhealthy obsessing. Take a break from your thoughts, Taurus. Get grounded. Do some yoga or meditation.

Gemini
This week is all about money for you, Gemini. Maybe there is a certain financial situation that needs your attention. Try to fight impulses and stick to your guns on money matters.

Cancer
Venus is still in your sign, meaning that you will be working on relationships. Keep in mind what you actually need and are looking for in a relationship. Are your needs being met? Also try not to take things too personally. This can be difficult for you, sensitive Cancer, but take into account the whole situation. Take a second to think before jumping to conclusions. Remember that current relationships are not your previous ones. Is your current partner doing something that is sending you into a bad relationship flashback? Remember that this person is not your old partner.

Leo
How are you, Leo? How are you feeling about your current situation? No sure? That’s ok! Learn to accept doubt and uncertainty. Try to do something spontaneous this weekend.

Virgo
Mercury is retrograding through your sign. Take this time to do some self-reflection. Make sure you are being the person you want others to see. Nurture and cultivate your friends and colleagues. Don’t take these relationships for granted.

Song: “I Know I Can” by Nas

Libra
Something is going on in your professional life. Are you unhappy in your current job? Or maybe you’re mixing work and play. Be on the lookout for professional connections when they arise and be aware of the ones you’ve already made. This weekend, spend time with a different group of people.

Song: “I Want to Break Free” by Queen

Scorpio
Pay close attention to your career this week. What things are going well for you? If arguments arise, try not to get carried away. Even if you win this argument, are you really better off? Take into consideration the whole situation and look for the best solution for everyone involved.

Song: “Keep Cool, Fool” Ella Fitzgerald

Sagittarius
Think about your future, Sag. What are your long-term goals and plans. Are you working towards them? What do you need and what don’t you need? Think about your relationships and career. Will these things help you get where you want to go?

Song: “Old Man” by Neil Young

Capricorn
Your loved ones need you this week. Be there for them, but also be there for yourself. It’s great to be supportive, but take a step back if you feel like you’re giving too much.

Song: “With a Little Help From My Friends” by the Beatles

Aquarius
As an air sign, you tend to spend a lot of time lost in your thoughts. You’re a thinker. This week remember not to neglect other parts of your self, mainly your physical needs. Spend time with people who inspire you.

Song: “Let’s Get Physical” by Olivia Newton John

Pisces
Set boundaries with loved ones. Take time and space for yourself. Take care of your needs first for a change. Be honest with your partner about your needs and desires.
