Five days before Venus, the planet of love is due to return to Aries and just over a week after his return to your romantic sector, Mars is starting to face some temporary roadblocks. While an opposition with Pluto might be putting life’s demands or other duties in your way, as the warrior planet of the cosmos, Mars is going to use this as motivation as you prepare to move into some of the most romantically charged weeks of 2025.

While it won’t peak until later next week, a nearly three week alliance between Uranus in Taurus and the South Node in your romantic sector that began yesterday is now well established. In a case of perfect timing, this comes just as Mars and Pluto are going head to head as they nut out any work/life balance issues. Where you’re going, that couldn’t be more important.

With the asteroid Juno, the queen of commitment gone from your relationship sector and apart from the Moon’s monthly visits it will remain empty until later in the year, the focus has shifted to Mars and his war on communication barriers. An opposition with Pluto that will peak tomorrow and then drop back might be throwing up some communication roadblocks and barriers, whether real or imagined, but with a chance for the warrior planet of the cosmos to get to work.

At the same time that an alignment between Venus and Saturn in an adventurous part of your chart is just starting to separate, they are both moving close to a friendly aspect to Juno, the queen of commitment, in retrograde motion in your romantic sector. For Venus, this will peak tomorrow, with the weekend the ideal time to host a mix of romance, adventure and nostalgia.

While it won’t peak until tomorrow, an opposition between Mars in Leo and Pluto in your relationship sector has begun, bringing a short, sharp jolt when it comes to a balance between your own and your relationship needs. Within two days this will be waning, but until then, it is having Mars back in Leo that is making it harder to be anything but true to yourself.

It is just as you are already moving into some special days on the communication and relationship fronts, that two months after returning to begin her first deep dive into your relationship needs and priorities, the dwarf planet Ceres moves into her final three weeks. Out of the whole of the last two months, this week has given you your best sense yet of what you want from your relationships and what they need from you.

Ahead of Venus, the planet of love’s return to your relationship sector next week, the Moon’s monthly visit was always going to be a valuable chance to check in and become more emotionally engaged and aware. Today, as the Moon aligns with Mercury, for the only time while the planet of communication is making his short double dip visit, it is more about the words.

A day after Saturn moved into his final month in your romantic sector and with Venus, the planet of love leaving next week, the dwarf planet Ceres moves into her final three weeks. By this time next week, 15 years of continuous planetary activity on the romantic front will end, but with Ceres’ deep dive into your heart’s needs and priorities first helping you to get the most out of these final weeks.

While the Moon will have left your romantic sector by the time Venus, the planet of love returns next week, its friendly aspect to Mars in an adventurous part of your chart is a small taste of things to come. A mix of romance, passion and adventure in the air today is nothing compared to when the planets of love and passion join forces next week but is the incentive to take recent work/life balance reminders seriously.

A friendly aspect between Uranus in your romantic sector and the South Node in an adventurous part of your chart that began yesterday will remain locked into place for nearly three weeks and won’t even peak until early next month, making this something you have time to sink into. The Sun only returned to your romantic sector six days ago and even before the Moon returns tomorrow as a New Moon, this year will feel different, because it is different.

In a case of perfect timing, the Moon is not only in your communication sector during an opposition between Mars in your relationship sector and Pluto in Aquarius, but is actively involved. Where this might be putting a balance between your own and your relationship needs to the test, the Moon has not only formed a friendly aspect to Mars but while aligned with Mercury, the planet of communication in your communication sector. This is helping to keep the communication lines open.

Even before the Moon not only returns to your communication sector tomorrow but begins the lead up to a New Moon and a chance for new beginnings, the communication and relationship gods are working together. The Sun only returned to your communication sector six days ago, but it is a nearly three week alliance between Uranus here and the South Node in your relationship sector that is making a focus on a balance between your own and your relationship needs over the last few days timely.
