With Mercury, the planet of communication still settling into his early days in Aries and just as he has aligned with Mars and Saturn, the Moon returns for its monthly visit to your communication sector. As well as giving Mercury’s efforts to get the communication lines open a boost, this is the warm up for when Venus, the planet of love returns in four days to begin her mission to give your heart and your relationships a voice.

Before leaving and wrapping up its only visit to Taurus while Venus, the planet of love is here, an alignment is going to leave you with a better sense of what your heart, intuition and instincts are telling you. What began two days ago with a friendly aspect to the South Node in your romantic sector, leaves you better able to get the most out of the final days of Venus’ update of your heart’s desires, hopes and aspirations for the coming year, just as the Sun returns to begin your birthday month and new solar year.

While four days before Venus, the planet of love is due to leave a nostalgic and reflective part of your chart, ending your heart’s nostalgic trip down love’s memory lane, the Sun returns. While the Moon’s return to Gemini today is a chance to start preparing for Venus’ return in four days, as the month long wind down of your old solar year begins, a sense of nostalgia is likely to deepen.

While their paths won’t cross and they will miss each other by a few hours, as the Moon leaves a social and serendipitous part of your chart and the Sun returns, they will both help you get the most out of Venus, the planet of love’s final days here. Where the Moon leaves you with heart and gut on the same page and better able to pick up on the signs that can put you in the right place at the right time, the Sun’s return will make this even more transparent.

Two days after it began and not due to even start to separate for another three days, an alignment between Juno and Pluto in your relationship sector peaks. This is the coming together of the queen of commitment and the planet of change and transformation, in what is just the first of three alignments between now and November that mark the start of a partnership to both update your relationship resolutions and make whatever changes this might require.

It is just as Venus, the planet of love moves into her final four days in an adventurous part of your chart that the Moon leaves and the Sun will return today. While their paths won’t cross, as the adventurous lunar vibes of the last few days run their course, the Sun’s return a few hours later will lock this into place. As well as throwing more light on Venus’ mission to bring the spirit of romance and adventure, this will make where the laws of attraction and synchronicity are in effect more transparent.

Just as a rare alignment between Juno and Pluto in your romantic sector peaks, something that is bringing the queen of commitment and the planet of change and transformation together, the Moon returns to an adventurous part of your chart. While an ordinary monthly visit, this is a chance to get a jump on Venus, the planet of love’s return in four days, to get serious about bringing the spirit of romance and adventure together.

While the Moon will not only leave your relationship sector but wrap up its only visit while Venus, the planet of love is here before the Sun returns today, with a chance to ensure you are emotionally engaged and aware from the start. In those few hours between the Moon’s departure and the Sun’s return, with Venus just four days away from leaving, there is a chance to listen to your heart and to any emotional responses that might have been evoked over the last few days.

The Sun’s departure from your romantic sector today might take the solar spotlight off matters of the heart, but just as a rare triple alignment between Mercury, Mars and Saturn has formed. The spirit of romance is not only in safe hands but is getting some serious support. Meanwhile, the Moon’s return to your relationship sector is a chance to become more emotionally engaged and aware as you prepare for Venus, the planet of love’s return in four days.

While the Moon will leave your romantic sector a few hours before the Sun’s return today, as the only visit while Venus, the planet of love is here and as she prepares to leave in four days, the romantically charged lunar vibes of the last few days have prepared you for both. This is the point in each year when the solar spotlight will always shift onto matters of the heart, but in time to put a light on Venus’ final days and keep the romantic flame burning after she leaves.

The Moon’s return to your romantic sector today is an ordinary monthly event and something that in the absence of planetary activity here, can be the most romantically charged days of any month. However, four days before Venus, the planet of love is due to return, this is a chance for a practice run and especially as over the next few days, these romantically charged lunar vibes will have to compete with the new working week.

As Venus, the planet of love moves into her final four days in your communication sector and of her mission to give your heart and your relationships a voice, the Moon leaves and the Sun returns. While their paths won’t cross and the Moon will leave several hours before the Sun returns, this will not only keep the momentum going but after the Moon has made it easier to give your emotional responses a voice, the Sun is able to keep it real.
