Aquarius Weekly Horoscope

This week ushers in a sense of ease, though it is one that arrives in stops and starts, and might give you a bit of whiplash if you don’t pay attention. Come the 30th, pleasuring-loving Venus leaves Gemini and your 5th House of Creativity and moves into Cancer and your 6th House of Work and Routine, smoothing out your daily life and giving your financial flow some relief. For the next four weeks you’ll find more enjoyment in your work, even if you normally like to avoid it like the plague; this is also a great time to start a new workout routine or healthy eating initiative, because Venus will make the process much easier. This is also a great time to indulge in a new workout wardrobe or fancy juicer, since this sector rules health, and Venus likes to add a few bells and whistles wherever she goes; hey, whatever does the trick! Since Venus also rules love, you might have an office romance, though with Mercury still retrograde in your relationship sector it would be best to avoid any workplace affairs, lest you wind up getting exposed at a Coldplay concert.

Mercury will be playing its own part the very next day as it conjoins the Sun in Leo and your 7th House of Partnerships, helping you get in touch with the people who matter most. You may be engaged with a romantic relationship or a professional one, but if you have to parse through any serious matters make sure you are both on the same page because it’s only too easy to misunderstand one another while Mercury is retrograde. Avoid trying to form new partnerships now as they will likely fall apart quicker than you’d anticipate, and don’t sign on the dotted line without reading the fine print.

Venus, meanwhile, will continue to act up throughout the week; on the 1st she will form a tense square to stoic Saturn in Aries and your 3rd House of Local Community and Communications, which will force you to face your own limitations whether you want to or not, as Saturn will provide you with detours and barriers when you’d rather just plow ahead without a second that. Don’t try to push too hard in any one direction because chances are you won’t like where you wind up, and don’t try to grease any palms to make it happen, because people won’t react too kindly to you trying to smooth-talk your way into any particular situation.

Venus will move on quickly, fortunately, but she will move right into another square, this time with mystical Neptune, also in Aries and your chatty 3rd House. Neptune can make it very difficult to get a grip on reality, so your words and your actions might be at odds with one another, but you simply can’t figure out why. Together like this, Venus and Neptune can create a big illusion that looks fantastic at first glance, but that is rarely the case in reality, so proceed with caution.
