Hi, your sex and love horoscope for the weekend has arrived

Hi, your sex and love horoscope for the weekend has arrived

What’s happening: The Moon is in lovey Libra and Venus is in flamboyant Leo tonight, which means there’s big potential for being romantic and/or getting down and dirty—except there’s also a Venus/Pluto opposition that’s causing some drama. Any imbalances in your relationship dynamic will be highlighted now, and Pluto’s intense energy is all but forcing you to react very strongly when issues come up.

The Moon enters mysterious Scorpio on Sunday, and Venus forms a sesquiquadrate with Saturn. Communication becomes more difficult and self-doubt becomes more prominent, which makes it hard to voice your wants/needs. Fiery Mars runs into Uranus, the planet of newness, on Monday, and you feel desperate to break free of whatever is holding you down. The Moon entering wild Sagittarius on Tuesday only amplifies this vibe. Finally, on Thursday, all this turbulent astro-weather is over and the Sun makes a gentle connection with Uranus. This brings you inspiration, positive thinking, and bright ideas to fix whatever problems you faced this week.

What that means for *you*:

Aries

If you’re single, be careful who you’re taking to bed! You’re feeling especially lonely right now. Finding someone to flirt or fool around with isn’t a problem, but finding the right person is. There are people looking to take advantage of you, then leave you in the dust. Take it easy and peruse your options first. Single or not, the stars are telling you that now is not the time to make big decisions or take unnecessary risks. Make sure you aren’t missing any red flags.

Taurus

It’s as if you’re just itching for a fight right now, Taurus. You’re not one to throw the first punch, but you’ve had it up to HERE with the inconveniences and disappointments in your love life. Oh, you got ghosted? Now you want to blow up their phone and give them a piece of your mind. Oh, your partner didn’t put the dishes away like they promised? Now you want to bring up EVERY time they forgot and exactly how much it annoys you. Maybe you’re single, and dating hasn’t been going so well. You might ghost someone else, or ignore your current potential paramours, just to make them feel the same way. I suggest keeping your cool, unless you want to really tear up your love life. Be cooperative, not confrontational. Be direct and honest, not passive-aggressive and sarcastic. These issues can be resolved, but lashing out won’t get you anywhere. Try to keep a level head and have a conversation, not an argument.

Gemini

This weekend’s Libra Moon activates your chart’s zone of romance, sex, and fun, so sex feels even better and romance is even more passionate. Unfortunately, Pluto’s influence is warping the vibe. If you’re happily single, there could be a little drama (probs with an ex, thanks to Mars), but you’re likely ending the week relatively unscathed. If you’re coupled up and things are going great, expect a few minor disagreements—nothing you can’t handle. But if you’re in a relationship/situationship where things aren’t so hot, a breakup could very easily happen right now. On the bright side, Venus in Leo is amazing for making new love connections, so finding a rebound won’t be a problem at all.

Cancer

You’re feeling especially self-conscious right now. If you’re in a happy, healthy relationship, I encourage you to lean on your partner—they’ll give you the support you need. If you’re single or in a not-so-great relationship, though, you’re feeling desperate for human connection. You might hop in bed with the first person to say something sweet to you, even if you’re not usually the hooking-up type. If you’re with a shitty partner, you may even feel spurred to go see someone on the side to compensate. This all may sound good in the moment, but once the week is over, you’ll look back and see that you did not, in fact, make the best choice. Treat yourself, your partner, and your relationship(s) with the grace and patience they deserve. Do things the right way. Thursday’s astro is optimistic and pleasant compared to the rest of the week’s astro, so you will be able to find a solution. Whether that’s talking through things or breaking up is still TBD.

Leo

Venus in your sign is turning you into a total babe magnet, but use a discerning eye while you’re scoping out all of these new potential paramours. You and the other person likely don’t want the same thing, and if you don’t talk about it, things can end in heartbreak. If you’re looking for NSA sex, tell the other person. If you’re looking for love, you need to be upfront about that—otherwise you’ll be left feeling very lonely after they say they just wanted something casual. Communication is key this week. There’s potential for excitement, but you have to be honest and open about what you want in order to avoid any potential drama.

Virgo

Listen. You have to stop comparing your current partners to your past lovers. The only thing you’re doing is causing yourself and others a lot of anxiety. If the first thing you do after a date is wonder how your ex would have acted on that date, you’re doing things wrong. One, they’re your ex for a reason, and two, this is a whole new person and a whole different relationship. You need to move on and focus on what’s right in front of you. With that being said, if you’re noticing a bunch of red flags in your current partner that mirror those of an ex, now’s the time to jump ship and run!

Libra

As the sign of relationships, you have a propensity to lose yourself in a connection, no matter how casual or serious. Before you know it, you’re changing how you act in order to become the person you think your partner/crush wants you to be. You’re the zodiac’s mirror—you’re the best at matching others’ energy, but you run the risk of completely changing your attitude, habits, and behaviour for someone else. If you’re dating someone, they are going to notice how much your personality changes as time goes on. Your friends and family may notice, too. You can be yourself, Libra! If someone doesn’t like it, you don’t need to change—it simply means that it’s time to move on. There are plenty of people who would love to love you, not some fabricated persona.

Scorpio

You’re feeling very avoidant right now, Scorpio. You have two options: First, you can let your fear of closeness take over and start leaving people on read, being closed-off with your partner, and/or playing games with someone just to get a hit of attention. Orrrrrrrrr… you could not. If you’re not ready for intimacy, don’t make any promises you can’t keep. If you’re in a relationship, instead of shutting down, at least tell your partner that you need some alone time and that you’ll talk about it when you’re ready. The astro at the end of the week is much nicer. It’ll pull you out of this mood, allowing you to proceed forward in your love life with more confidence.

Sagittarius

The Venus/Pluto action this weekend is enabling intense new connections, mind-blowing sex, and meaningful romantic experiences. The problem here is that this astro also has the potential for manipulation, drama, and heartbreak. Before you take the plunge and start doing the dirty or dating someone new, make sure you know their intentions! Are they here for a little fun, or do they intend on sticking around? If you don’t ask them, you’ll never know! You’re feeling a bit of self-doubt and hesitation this week, and it’s making you very anxious. Try to push past that fear, start that important conversation, and make sure you’re able to lay out everything you need so that this relationship—no matter how casual or serious it is—can start out on the right foot. There’s no room for doubt right now.

Capricorn

You’re having some difficulties when it comes to intimacy right now. That could mean you/your partner is having some “performance anxiety,” or you’re having a tough time getting in the mood, or you’re feeling super self-conscious. This happens to everyone from time to time, but it’s really bugging you—maybe even overwhelming you. Here’s the good news: This astro is temporary, so even if you’re not able to talk this out with your partner, things will go back to normal by the end of the week. Speaking of the end of the week, there’s some kick-ass astro that can make things extra hot. The Mars/Uranus action is going on in the sexiest part of your chart, so your libido is cranked ALL the way up, your stamina is nearly endless, and you’re also giving off a very sexy vibe that others just can’t resist!

Aquarius

People are very attracted to you, Aquarius—why can’t you see it? There’s a big emphasis on self-doubt in your horoscope right now, and it’s likely hindering your love life. You’re retreating from the people you’re in the talking stage with, because you’re thinking, “What if they don’t like me as much as I like them?” Or you’re becoming distant from your partner because you’re asking, “What if I’m not good enough for them? They deserve better.” Ignore those nasty thoughts, Aquarius. Focus on the positive treatment you get from others, and your feelings will likely change. If you stick in this mindset of “I’m not good enough,” then others will never have the opportunity to give you the attention that you’re craving!

Pisces

Venus is in the most practical, productive zone of your birth chart right now, urging you to take a realistic stance towards your love life and actually work towards improving it. If you want love, stop settling for hookups. If you want a fulfilling relationship but you’re stuck with a POS partner, now’s the time to part ways. If you want to take things to the next level with your boo, you have to tell them. You can make a lot of magic happen in your love life now, especially with the exciting Sun/Uranus connection at the end of the week, but you have to deal with the very real problems in front of you first. Adjust your habits, take a serious approach, and get to work—then your love life can actually be fun again!
